Waiting to Make the Break for the south

As Kadizzle types a blizzard is just beginning in ND. Slowly the Kadizzilites are making the final prep for escape from the great white north. The key to the whole thing will be a window of opportunity to drive on decent roads to Denver. From Denver the next great feat will be to bust into Cottonwood AZ. The great adventure will begin nest Monday or Tuesday. Luckily our furnace failed about a week ago. Being home was the blessing. Had the furnace given out while we were gone would have been a disaster. Way too many days have been spent inside being warmed by the TV. First order of business in the warmth will be getting into a little bit of hiking shape.

An Old Grandpa

Poor old Kadizzle is an old Grandpa now. One full year of enjoying the little Sylvie. Naturally she has the language skills of a seasoned Quinn. Her vocabulary is amazing. The big thrill for next year will be cashing social security checks. The winter in North Dakota is wearing. Snow is already piled deep. Soon with some good fortune the Kadizalites will head south. In fact far south. Mexico is on the agenda. Time on the beach. Sounds refreshing. Just seeing the sun at this point would be great. We got in very little pheasant hunting this year. The poor birds are having a hard time of it. The snow is keeping them from food. If Kadizzle were a pheasant in this mess he would come out and ask to be shot. Hopefully the economy will improve next year and people will see the need for real change and reform. At this point is seems we are just refinancing the illusion.

How I wish I was in Sharbrook now.

The Watermelon song

Lord Kadizzle searched long and hard for the lyrics to the watermelon song. It used to be a camp song we sang as kids. Kadizzle found two different sets of lyrics. The first is the one Kadizzle remembers.

You can talk about your apples
your peaches and your pears
Your simmons hangin' on that simmon tree
But bet your heart my honey
Of all the fruit that grows
That watermelon am the fruit for me

Oh! Hambone am good!
Chicken 'em sweet!
Possum meat am very very fine!
Yes Lord!
But give me, oh give me
I really wish you would
That watermelon hangin' on that vine

But when I went to futch it
Was on a rainy night
The moon it had not yet begun to shine
And oh that white man saw me
And he shot me through the fence
But I never left that melon on that vine

Now this would be a second version that must have been sung by Tennessee Earnie Ford

Back in West Virginia I used to sit upon the fence
A-wonderin’about the lack of people’s common sense

What I didn’t then keep concealed
Was one great big fat watermelon layin in the field

See that watermelon hangin’ on the vine
I wish that watermelon could be mine

The farmer must be careless
Without lack of sense
Or he wouldn’t have leave it hangin’
On the vine

Cornbread is sweet
Pork chops are good
Black eyed peas are mighty, mighty fine
But give me oh give me
I really wish you would
That watermelon hangin’ on the vine

Got a gal who loves me
She always treats me fine
She lets me hug and kiss her all the time
I wish that all her kisses
Could taste half as sweet
As that watermelon hangin’ on the vine

Oh kissin’ is sweet
Huggin is good
Cissie’s lips taste mighty, mighty, fine
But give me, oh give me
That watermelon hangin on the vine

Well I see that watermelon
So thick, so fat, so fine
What a shame to go leavin’ it behind

I know my baby’s waitn’
She won’t be waitin long
Now that I got that watermelon off the vine

Hambone is sweet um
Chicken is good
Blackeyed peas are mighty, mighty fine
But I ought to tell you
I really think I should
Eat a watermelon hangin’ on the vine.

The Parting Glass Christmas wishes from the Quinns

O, all the money e'er I had,
I spent it in good company.
And all the harm that ever I've done,
alas it was to none but me.
And all I've done for want of wit
to mem'ry now I can't recall;
So fill to me the parting glass,
Good night and joy be with you all.

O, all the comrades e'er I had,
They're sorry for my going away.
And all the sweethearts e'er I had,
They'd wished me one more day to stay.
But since it falls unto my lot,
That I should rise and you should not,
I gently rise and softly call,
Goodnight and joy be with you all.

My Hero has something to say about the Greed Dogs

Sell your followers fake gold

Glenn Beck is an amazing rat without an ounce of truth or morality. Glenn scares and stirs up the Hoopleheads who follow him, then his sponsor sells them gold coins. Only one minor problem the gold coins don't have the gold content the poor suckers expect. The company that sells the gold scares the Hooples by telling them Obama can confiscate gold, but cannot confiscate antique gold coins. So the best thing to do is buy the antique gold coins. The only part the scammers leave out is that the antique gold coins are not pure gold. Now Glenn's sponsor is in court trying to stay out of jail. You just have to love Fox, and Glenn. Any respectable person would warn people, but not Glenn, not Fox.

Temptation Resisted

Lord Kadizzle has never been so pissed in a long time politically. Obama caving in to the greedy Republicans is just unacceptable. The fact that the greedy bastards want us to borrow 700 billion from China to give them tax breaks is just plain beyond comprehension. What in the hell is wrong with any thinking person that they would even consider giving each of the richest Americans another 3 million per year, when people are losing their homes, when people don't have jobs. Kadizzle got so pissed he called Mitch McConnell's office in Kentucky just to let that worthless lick-spittle have a piece of his mind. This is the biggest robbery in history. The resisted temptation was the desire to email everyone Kadizzle has an email address for and beg them to call the sorrowful representatives that would partake in the Republican hold up.

This says it all
