I finally got Cindy’s permission to put her picture on the blog. Here she is holding Jeff. This is one from quite a few years ago so she has changed quite a bit. She doesn’t monkey around, when she picks a picture does she.I went Bananas when she said I could use it. Jeff’s going to go ape…. when he see’s I’ve put a picture of him on here. (I didn’t get his permission). Oh well, speaking of permission. I made the mistake of asking Momma her opinion of a post I was planning to put on here today. Needles to say she was less than thrilled. I was less than thrilled when she gave me her honest opinion, didn’t she know I JUSTA wanted her to rubber stamp it. Oh well I learned another valuable lesson. If you don’t want to know don’t ask!! So in the future(as in from now on) I’m taking an idea right out of the Billy Bob Clinton play book “Don’t ask Momma, Don’t tell Momma” with a slight twist on the last part to read “Don’t tell Momma till after you’ve done it.” I know, I know,These are Gorilla tactics, but when times get tough( I mean isn’t $3.35 a gal for gas tough enough?) than you dig down and you do what you have to. After all I had just spent 10 minutes away from my bon bon’s to produce in my opinion, a kick fanny post. Oh well.

Now you ask, Mark what kind of useful information did you give me today? Well besides the price of gas at the Nice and Easy in Phoenix. Not much yet. So in the interest of brevity (which this post has no way of accomplishing now) I’m going to give you a few quick references of the local Syracuse area that will help you,in no particular order:

  • One of the best places for news, information, weather or whatever online and on tv is 9 Wsyr.com if you’ve never gone, check them out. A lot of information for sure.
  • If you want to know what traffic is looking like,and you go to work via 690 east into town, check out this neat site,with it’s group of cameras.When it starts getting lighter earlier (remember those days) it well be easier to see.
  • And just to keep this post as short as I can,(boy does he ramble on) I realize this isn’t a local what ever but who doesn’t want to keep up with The Farmers Almanac . This is a really, really neat site with lots of information.

There, that didn’t hurt to much did it? Take your seat belt off, get up out of the chair, get something to drink (Beverage of choice) and relax. Hopefully I haven’t scared you away and we’ll see ya tomorrow.
