Happy Birthday
By Stevie Wonder
This should have been part of my Friday posting and for that I truly apologize...
Was a horrible son this past week, allowing my Dad's Birthday to pass on Friday without a call. Sometimes THE COUCH can be so much a numbskull. SO SO Sorry dad.
"BUCKEYE BATTLE CRY" / "THE VICTORS"Big football game this past Saturday. Excellent game with Ohio State edging out Michigan.
Condolences to Bo Schembechler's family on his passing. Anyone who knows anything about college football knows the name Bo. If you don't you can read up HERE.
Though he did do something dumb when he was running the Detroit Tigers and he fired Ernie Harwell, the great broadcaster.
"NASCAR SONG"OK... I am sorry but this Nascar thing...left hand turns, yellow flags - go fast - yellow flag - go fast - yellow flag and cars crashing... ummmm THE COUCH can watch it for a few minutes at a time, but that is about all...
"STEPFORD WIFE"Yes, they got married in Italy this past weekend... Tom and his stepford wife...
Now move on please...
"WHAT A GIRL WANTS"THE COUCH is impressed with Christina Aguilera. This young woman was pure fluff when she began, tried to get "respectability" by becoming drrrty and making scenes and shocking people and then had a revelation.
Sing and sing some more and then you will become a star. Her new album is very good, we liked her duet with Tony Bennett on SNL last week.
Hellllllllllllllllllllllllllo Britney...you listening?
"MONEY"So Peruvian officials decided to spread the wealth by instituting revenue-sharing from rising prices of gold, zinc and other minerals. They did not expect the results shown in the jungle and mountain municipalities who have seen their income on mining taxes increase by 1,000% in the last year.
Instead of paving streets and constructing sewer systems as the govenment had hoped, grandiose town halls and heated swimming pools for the mayors of these towns have appeared instead.
But nothing as weird as what happened in the municipality of Huayre, where Mayor Wenceslao Alderete constructed what he hopes will become a tourist attraction.
Gracing the village's central plaza are outsized images of genitalia and of macca root, a tuber consumed as an aphrodisiac!
As you can guess Alderete says the $158,000.00 was well spent and it is not his job to build sewer systems, that is the job of the regional govenment.
Guess it helps that he is not running for reelection!
The rumors that Disney is looking at this for Epcot are being denied.
"TWO FOOLS"If only they had something to do with their spare time...
Two students in Winfield, Kansas are accussed of putting staples in ketchup in the local high school and middle school. The two could be suspended or expelled.
Kiddies..how could suspension ever be a consideration. Throw them out and let mommy and daddy have to foot the bill for private school.
St. J - P.B.U.A.Q.B.
Thanks for sitting on THE COUCH, hope you enjoyed your stay.
