Yesterday was The Governor's first hair cut.
When the Wright County Coroner's office sorts out the remains and gets the DNA tests back, I will be able to let you all know just how many casualties there were. Currently, the body count is relatively low. Most of the people not accounted for have simply been labeled "missing" as there are not enough body parts to identify complete corpses.
Well...I suppose it wasn't quite as bad as all that. No deaths. The barber is going on permanent disability and there was less that half a million in property damage. I think our insurance covers this. I don't know. I haven't returned the "urgent" phone messages from State Farm that are piling up on our answering machine.
Today has been a bit calmer. We're heading to the nursing home to visit one of our favorite old timers. I offered to take her out for a ride in the convertible tomorrow, and so we're going to go bribe some social workers and nurses to see if we can't get rid of Old Timer's home monitoring anklet alarm for a couple of hours in the morning. If they don't comply, I'm going to release The Governor. I expect them to succumb in less than six minutes.
Not too much else to report. If you live in Wright County, stay off the roads tomorrow around 10 a.m. Old Timer and I are not slowing for anyone.
Have a great Labor Day weekend. Drive safely or wear clean underwear. It's your choice.
We will be in town, perhaps celebrating in the city of Dassel at their Red Rooster Days. The big draw of the weekend is the chicken dinner on Monday. And I AM PRO-CHICKEN!
