HOWARD’S DAILY CHRONICLE

NUMBER 30 VOL 3

OCTOBER 30^TH 2007

WEATHER; FANTASTIC, COOL, LOW HUMIDITY, 80 DEGREES

WOKE UP AGAIN TO THE SOUND OF HEAVY EQUIPMENT WORKING, THEY’RE REALLY DOING A GOOD JOB ON THE ROAD! HOPE WE CAN START USING IT AGAIN TOMORROW BUT SINCE IT’S TAKEN SO LONG TO GET IT FIXED WE WON’T GET IN A BIG HURRY!

I DID A LITTLE WORK ON THE DECK TODAY AND, TRIED TO FIND OUT WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE SOLAR LIGHTS WE HAVE NEXT TO THE STAIRS AND WALKWAY WHERE WE GO DOWN OFF THE DECK! AS FAR AS I CAN FIGURE OUT THE ELECTRONICS AREN’T WORKING. I PUT A NEW BATTERY IN EACH ONE AND COVERED THE SOLAR PANEL ON TOP AND NOTHING. MOM IS GOING TO TAKE THEM BACK TO WAL-MART TOMORROW AND, YES THEY’RE MADE IN CHINA, ENOUGH SAID!

I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS WEATHER. I NEEDED TO REST FOR A WHILE AFTER PICKING UP SOME LUMBER WE LEFT LAYING AROUND THE DECK AFTER WE GOT THE ROOF DONE AND SAT DOWN IN MY CHAIR, IT SWIVELS AND ROCKS AND I STARTED ROCKING. MOM HAD GONE TO TOWN ABOUT NOON AND I WOKE UP AFTER SHE GOT HOME ABOUT 2:30, I CAN’T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I SLEPT THAT LONG ON THE DECK, USUALLY IT’S ABOUT 15-20 MINUTES. ANYHOW, MOM MADE LUNCH AND I WENT IN AND ATE AND WATCHED CNN. I’M GETTING SICK OF ALL THE MUD SLINGING THAT’S GOING ON FROM BOTH SIDES, THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A CLEAN CAMPAIGN BUT SOME OF THE PEOPLE JUST HAVE TO TRY AND GET THE BETTER OF THEIR FELLOW CANDIDATES AND THE OPOSITION JUST SITS BACK AND SMILES. THEY DON’T SEEM TO REALIZE A CAMPAIGN, SPORTING EVENT, AUTO RACE OR ANY COMPETITION IS LOST WHEN IT’S DEVOURED FROM WITHIN AND TO THE VICTOR GOES THE SPOILES!

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DIDN’T GET TO WATCH THE PACKERS vs BRONCOS ON MONDAY NIGHT YOU MISSED PROBABLY THE BEST DEFENSIVE GAME I’VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME, EXCEPT FOR THE STUPID PENALTIES. THE PACKERS DEFENSE HAS A LOT OF WORK TO DO, THE FIRST THING THE COACH SHOULD DO IS TAKE THOSE DAMN GLOVES AWAY FROM THE TACKLES AND LINE BACKERS,THEY MISSED AT LEAST 25-30 TACKLES AND COMMITTED A BUNCH OF UNNECESSARY FOULS! IT CAME DOWN TO THE 4^TH QUARTER AND THE PACKERS LEAD 13-10 (IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 27-10). THE BRONCOS MADE A FIELD GOAL AND TIED IT UP TO GO INTO OVERTIME, THE PACKERS WON THE TOSS AND RECEIVED THE KICKOFF, BRETT FAVRE CAME OUT FOR THE FIRST SERIES OF DOWNS AND ON THE FIRST PLAY HE PULLED OFF SOME OF HIS MAGIC, HE UNLOADED AN 89 YARD PASS DOWN THE SIDE LINES TO CRAIG JENNINGS WHO CAUGHT IT AND WENT IN FOR THE SCORE, PACKERS 19- BRONCOS 13. AND THE FAT LADY SANG!
  WHEN THE PACKERS PLAY I’M A PACKER BACKER BECAUSE LILLIAN IS FROM WISCONSIN AND I LIKE TO WATCH BRETT FAVRE THEN WHEN THE COWBOYS PLAY SHE KIND OF PULLS FOR MY TEAM.

BUT WHEN THE COWBOYS PLAY THE PACKERS IT’S KATY BAR THE DOOR! THANK GOD THEY DON’T PLAY VERY OFTEN! OCCASIONALLY IN THE PRE SEASON THEY’LL BE SCHEDULED THEN WE’RE FOR OUR TEAMS AND MAY THE BEST TEAM WIN!

HOW ABOUT THE COWBOYS FINALLY GETTING TONY ROMO ON A CONTRACT! HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A FREE AGENT NEXT YEAR IF THEY HADN’T OF. HE WAS ALL SMILES AT THE NEWS CONFERENCE TONIGHT AND, WHO WOULDN’T BE ALL SMILES, 67 AND A HALF MILLION FOR 6 YEARS, AN 11 MILLION SIGNING BONUS AND 31 MILLION UP FRONT THAT’S GUARANTEED. IF HE GETS HURT OR FOR SOME REASON HE CAN’T PLAY HE DOESN’T LOSE THE 31 MILLION! THERE’S ONLY ON OTHER QUARTERBACK WHO COULD AND HAS THROWN A COMPLETED PASS LIKE FAVRE THREW IN THE GAME MONDAY NIGHT AND THAT’S TONY ROMO. THE SPORTS MEDIA IS COMPARING HIM TO BRETT FAVRE AND IF HE DOESN’T GET HURT THEY’RE LOOKING FOR HIM TO BREAK FAVRES RECORDS JUST LIKE FAVRE HAS BROKEN ALL EXISTING RECORDS FOR YARDS PASSING, GAMES STARTED, COMPLETED PASSES, TOUCHDOWN PASSES, AND OTHERS THAT I DON’T KNOW ABOUT!

THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE.

HOWARD

BESURE TO DRESS THE KIDS WARMLY FOR TRICK OR TREATING TOMORROW NIGHT AND MAKE SURE NONE OF THEM RUN BYE THEMSELVES. DRIVERS DON’T HIT THEM ON PURPOSE NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES BUT USUALLY A KID THAT GETS HIT BY A CAR WAS LEFT TO TAKE CARE OF HIM/HER SELF WHILE THE PARENTS ARE VISITING WITH OTHER PARENTS! GOOD LUCK!

JOKE;

THIS HAD MOST OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN LAUGHING FOR 2 DAYS AND AN EMBARRASSED FEMALE NEWS ANCHOR WHO WILL, IN THE FUTURE, LIKELY THINK BEFORE SHE SPEAKS. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PREDICT SNOW BUT DON’T GET ANY….A TRUE STORY.. THIS NEWS ANCHOR WHO, THE DAY AFTER IT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE SNOWED AND DIDN’T TURNED TO THE WEATHERMAN AND ASKED: “SO BOB, WHERE’S THAT 8 INCHES YOU PROMISED ME LAST NIGHT?”  NOT ONLY DID HE HAVE TO LEAVE THE SET, BUT HALF THE CREW DID TOO THEY WERE LAUGHING SO HARD.
