Gotta start you off with Tripp and Tyler&#39;s first video release from this years Catalyst conference. Looks like they delivered once again, and they are getting us in shape while doing so! &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This has been out for awhile. I don&#39;t watch too many Kanye West videos, but if you add Zach Galifianakis and farm equipment I will give it a go. &lt;br /&gt;

The Good Greatsby delivered some A+ reading material again this week when he let us know how he &lt;a href=&quot;http://thegoodgreatsby.com/2011/10/11/smack-talk-101-can-i-get-you-a-bowl-of-smackaroni-and-cheese/&quot; style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;teaches his kids to smack talk&lt;/a&gt;.

I at first though this might be entertaining to see, but as soon as I turned it on fear kicked in. I felt fear, compassion, and gratitude as I watched this video. I felt fear as being chased by any wild animal does not sound like much fun in any scenario. I felt compassion for the reporter who was being chased. This turkey seemed relentless in his approach. And finally I felt gratitude that I was not the person behind the camera.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The reason I am having such feelings about this video is because, I too know how it feels to be assaulted by a turkey. Before we get into that, please watch the following video, then I will recount my horror story. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;object classid=&quot;clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000&quot; codebase=&quot;http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,47,0&quot; height=&quot;412&quot; id=&quot;flashObj&quot; width=&quot;486&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f9?isVid=1&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;bgcolor&quot; value=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;flashVars&quot; value=&quot;videoId=1206869017001&amp;amp;playerID=35146384001&amp;amp;playerKey=AQ~~,AAAACC1lKhk~,ZvV6UsgbjjbyRIyjCwZ1LlCJagPsiGNo&amp;amp;domain=embed&amp;amp;dynamicStreaming=true&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;base&quot; value=&quot;http://admin.brightcove.com&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;seamlesstabbing&quot; value=&quot;false&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowFullScreen&quot; value=&quot;true&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;swLiveConnect&quot; value=&quot;true&quot; /&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;allowScriptAccess&quot; value=&quot;always&quot; /&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f9?isVid=1&quot; bgcolor=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; flashVars=&quot;videoId=1206869017001&amp;amp;playerID=35146384001&amp;amp;playerKey=AQ~~,AAAACC1lKhk~,ZvV6UsgbjjbyRIyjCwZ1LlCJagPsiGNo&amp;amp;domain=embed&amp;amp;dynamicStreaming=true&quot; base=&quot;http://admin.brightcove.com&quot; name=&quot;flashObj&quot; width=&quot;486&quot; height=&quot;412&quot; seamlesstabbing=&quot;false&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; allowFullScreen=&quot;true&quot; swLiveConnect=&quot;true&quot; allowScriptAccess=&quot;always&quot; pluginspage=&quot;http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;(See the whole news story &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mediabistro.com/tvspy/video-kxtv-producer-chased-by-wild-turkey_b24769&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;When I was a child we had numerous animals. We usually had about 2 or 3 dogs at a time, 2 or 3 cats, rabbits on occasion, we once had 2 ducks (story for another time when one died), we would also have up to about 200 chickens (I named one Rusty, when he died, Rusty 2, we got up for Rusty 9 I think before I gave that up.), we had a pig when I was really young, and one time my dad brought home a turkey. The turkey was to be a pet and live with chickens.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;One day my sister and I had some friends over. I was probably 8 years old. We lived in the country and what you do in the country is play outside. We were all out playing in the yard and at the time the chickens and the turkey were out roaming the yard as well eating grass and what not, being your typical chickens.We hadn&#39;t had the turkey long, hence him having no name, I used to name all our animals.The turkey was a bit of a wild card you could say. He had not been around long, he was not a chicken, and I believe he thought he was the stuff, because he was bigger than everyone he lived in the coup with.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.motherearthnews.com/uploadedImages/Blogs/The_Happy_Homesteader/Midget-white-turkey-tom.jpg?n=6214&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;278&quot; src=&quot;http://www.motherearthnews.com/uploadedImages/Blogs/The_Happy_Homesteader/Midget-white-turkey-tom.jpg?n=6214&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;Even this turkey thinks he is the stuff. Arrogant birds!&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;While we were playing my friends and I must have gotten to close to the turkey. He started to strut. Us being 8 year old boys we were probably all scared to death, but had to pretend to be tough so we got our strut on as well. I got closer, but still just checking him out, not in his bubble at all. I put my hand out, most likely to pet* Tom the Turkey(which probably would have been his name if he didn&#39;t turn on me). When I reached out my hand that stupid turkey had had enough I guess.............&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;He bit me!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The dumb turkey bit me, right between my thumb and pointer finger. As soon as it happened I began to cry like a baby. The bite didn&#39;t actually hurt, but I was scared to death.....the turkey bit me! Turkeys bite? Who knew?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;I ran into the house and told my mom, typical move. &quot;Mom! The turkey bit me!&quot; I screamed through my tears. I don&#39;t remember her exact response, but all I remember her deciding was that we would have to tell my dad that the turkey has got to go.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;The turkey didn&#39;t last long after that.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;I will tell you this. We had turkey for dinner a few nights later....apparently....I bite back!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Teach that bird to mess with me.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;*False, I was definitely putting my hand out to taunt this bird. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

If you have not seen the above video before you must not be from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.all-creatures.org/hope/img/earth-light.jpg&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. This video is one of the best in all the interwebs. I assume the video was filmed around the early 2000&#39;s and it if were later, please don&#39;t ruin it for me. Anyway, I was wondering this morning where the Evil Eye Baby is now, how old he is, and how he deals with all his fame and fortunes. I have come to the decision it was 2001, so that makes this kid 11 years old and in 6th grade now. The following is what I believe it might look like if I were to interview him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me: Hello Evil Eye Baby, let&#39;s get this show on the road. How many autographs do you sign a day?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Evil Eye Baby: I don&#39;t know like 7 to 10. It depends on how much homework Mr. Bojangles assigns in 3rd period English.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me: Do you care if I call you Evil Eye Baby, I don&#39;t know your real name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;EEB: I would care if you used questions marks, why are you too lazy to go back and change your last statement to a question?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me: I will be asking the questions here?...dang it. Anyway, is it hard for you to walk down the street with all your fans you must have?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;EEB: Yeah...it is really hard to do, but not because of the fans.....I lived on the fact I could give em the evil eye. People loved it so much I never had to learn to walk. I would just get requests to give the evil eye everywhere I went. People would carry me from one table to the next. I really bottomed out when I went to pre-school and other kids were able to make funny faces and walk. Obviously, their faces weren&#39;t as great as mine.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me:Obviously...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;EEB: But I was just so far behind all the others. I finally learned to walk in 2nd grade. I quit giving the evil eye once I could walk, and people were not as interested some random 2nd grade kid who could barely walk.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me:.....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;EEB:Hello?!?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me:Oh...yeah...rough stuff. I think I really only have one more question for you...could you...give em the evil eye???&lt;br /&gt;
EEB:......No!&lt;br /&gt;
Me: Fine....I will just go watch the video again...after posting this picture of you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Miriam started classes once again yesterday, after thinking about her telling me about them and how excited she is. All I can think now is how her dad once told me that the longer you go to school the more you get to take classes you actually care about.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Of course, once we buy cantaloupe &lt;a href=&quot;http://healthland.time.com/2011/09/28/cantaloupe-outbreak-is-the-deadliest-in-a-decade/&quot;&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; happens.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Apparently I have a real life arch nemesis at my work, sorry &lt;a href=&quot;http://jknight31.blogspot.com/2011/09/why-america.html&quot;&gt;Ashton&lt;/a&gt;, you might take a back seat for awhile.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;My new arch nemesis doesn&#39;t know I know she sees me as an arch nemesis, still trying to figure out how I will play it with that info. (If you &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/#%21/realjoeknight&quot;&gt;follow me&lt;/a&gt; on Twitter, don&#39;t worry. It is not Bev.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Said it before and will say it again. &quot;The Reckoning&quot; by Needtobreathe is soooo good. They continue to impress.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you have not seen it yet you need to see &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJ4T9CQA0UM&quot;&gt;Guy on a Buffalo&lt;/a&gt;. (Make sure you see &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5Lmkm5EF5E&quot;&gt;episode 2&lt;/a&gt; as well.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;See you at the pole was this morning I believe. Saw a great post about it that will make it into Seen Now Shared tomorrow.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Should have said this eight thoughts ago but, who ever decided that 1 is the loneliest number? Maybe he is just a loner...or he is probably a real jerk being the 1st prime number and all, so he is lonely. Shouldn&#39;t have been a jerk #1.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The Oregon Trail app is free right now. If you know anyone with an iAnything you need to make them aware. What a great game from elementary school. I am just waiting for one of my family members to die of dysentery!!! &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Time for lunch.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you are too lazy to click on the link for Guy on a Buffalo here it is. Just watch it and laugh, but then watch episode 2 and wait with me for episode 3. &lt;/li&gt;

Which I find is ridiculous...out of those 28 millions I would assume I knew at least one, but no one I know watches that show. How are there so many people out there watching this trash? (It may be due to my new &lt;a href=&quot;http://jknight31.blogspot.com/2011/09/quick-thoughts_19.html&quot; style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;arch nemesis Ashton Kutcher&lt;/a&gt; joining the show....well played Ashton, you win this round.) But in reality I find it sad that the show gets 28 millions viewers with how terrible it is. My favorite show Parks and Recreation apparently only gets 6 millions viewers (source Wikipedia, the only place with real facts!).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Knowing these statistics I have just one question. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WHY AMERICA!!!???!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why does such a terrible show get those kinds of ratings. I heard it is up there with an American Idol premiere in terms on ratings.....HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN!?!? (Lots of yelling today, or maybe my music is too loud, so I feel I have to shout.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I saw that lots of CBS shows get high ratings....to which I wonder again, how come I do not know a single one their viewers?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, let&#39;s change the course here and talk about how excited I am for the season premiere of Parks and Rec tomorrow night.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;What a great cast.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I am excited to see where the show goes this season. If you do not watch the show, you should. It is hilariously funny, each character brings their own uniqueness to the show and they mesh very well together. Every show usually has a character or a few that brings it down....not Parks and Rec, even their seldom used characters add to the show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The only negative might be with so many characters they, the less Andy Dwyer fun there is. Andy started the show with two broken legs falling into &quot;the pit&quot; which Leslie (Amy Poehler) made her goal to fill in in season one of the show.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are about to start season four of Parks and Rec, and I hope it continues for many seasons hereafter as long as they keep up with their comedic gold they have been handing out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would hope you might check out Parks and Rec tomorrow night and every week from until it is over.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I leave you with Ron Swanson&#39;s Pyramid of Greatness he shared with us when he was coaching a children&#39;s basketball team, which I will use in my coaching opportunities from here on out.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lots of great musicians releasing new albums lately. Ben Rector last week, and now Gungor and NeedtoBreathe this week. Not enough music budget for me right now. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.knoxmccoy.com/&quot; style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;Knox Mccoy&lt;/a&gt; didn&#39;t give us our Monday Morning Meatloaf today....could make for a long week without it. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Mizzou plays at Oklahoma this week. I feel like Mizzou really got the short end of the stick with this one year of scheduling we will have in the Big 12 minus 2 minus 1. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;With Pitt and Syracuse gone to the ACC, The Big 12 should go after TCU, Louisville, and Cincinatti to replace nebraska, Colorado, and A&amp;amp;M. Would make sense geographically and 3 decent teams in football, and 2 in basketball. Too bad this realignment has nothing to do with geography and rivalries though. And too bad the Big 12 is done for for realz now. See ya Texas, OU, Okie St, and Tech apparently.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I need to get my mom on the internet so I can double my amount of blog readers. (Shout out to my wife, Miriam for being my avid reader!!!)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Gonna be a busy week work wise. Got lots of two job days this week, hopefully I stay sane, and keep up with the dishes, my arch nemesis.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; I asked &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tylertarver.com/2011/09/17/your-questions-answered/&quot; style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;Tyler Tarver&lt;/a&gt; who should be my new arch nemesis as I was in need of one. He went with Ashton Kutcher and girls sticking their tongues out in photos. Kutcher I can make happen. But dirty dishes might beat out girls sticking their tongues out for now.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ashton Kutcher could be a great arch nemesis, but he might be making it too easy for me with his recent look (see below) and joining bad sitcoms. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We are gonna make our 1st chili of the season this week. Kind of excited about it.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Also not too excited because it means it snows soon here. We have had a couple overnights with frost already.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I am gonna try to make Seen Now Shared a weekly post on Thursday&#39;s. Could be hard when I find some good stuff. I already have enough for this week.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Speaking of posts, trying to think of more stuff with good content to distract myself with. I just love quick posts too much...like this one.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

Such a great show, each character is so unique and adds value to the show.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Why is there so much candy in this office I work at, I can only hold off the temptation so long?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ben Rector&#39;s new album came out today. I have yet to hear it, but I bet it will be a gift to my ears when I do.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Going back to thought 2. Snickers Peanut Butter is really good.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; First week of Fantasy Football is over. I won in both my leagues.....but do no expect much out of either team this season.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I like to think like that about Fantasy Football. I have no real control over how my teams perform. I can just hope.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Just got free pizza for lunch. Out of the blue. That makes for a good day.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;And for some reason I am having another Snickers Peanut Butter.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Google Reader is great. I don&#39;t have to check multiple sites anymore, just go see who has updated with my Google Reader. (Thanks Mim...even though I kind of trash talked it at the beginning.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Speaking of Google Reader, I will leave you with this gem from Awkward Family photos, which was a great subscription choice for myself.&lt;/li&gt;

I work part time in a retail store. Luckily I do not work in clothes or something, I work in the meat department. Here are some things I have encountered/learned in my adventures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Working in retail I have learned you are never doing just one thing. You have to be ready for all sorts of things, for instance, the last time I worked I was scheduled for the meat department, but saw time cashiering, working in the pharmacy, helping produce, working frozen food for grocery, and pushing carts in from outside, all while making 2 bales in a five hour shift. A 5 hour shift where I could have easily left early by finishing my area early too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, feels like too much talking myself up....that is not what this is about. This is about encounters like Knox Mccoy mentioned &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.knoxmccoy.com/2011/08/human-grenades-you-encounter-at-grocery.html&quot; style=&quot;color: #3d85c6;&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. (I really loved his blog post about the human grenades you encounter at the grocery store, because of how true it is. I encourage you to go check it out if you have not already.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of my favorite encounters that I get all the time while working goes something like this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Me: &lt;i&gt;Can I help you find anything?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Customer: &lt;i&gt;Yes&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Me:(waiting for them to ask about a product they can&#39;t find.)&lt;br /&gt;
Customer: (either walking away or looking at me strangely.)&lt;br /&gt;
Me: (walking away realizing they didn&#39;t listen to what I said and will just reply &quot;yes&quot; no matter what I say.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After having this encounter most every time I work, my new plan is to start asking randomness. My next shot will be &quot;Can I help you buy me something?&quot; That way when they say &quot;yes&quot;, I will quickly throw some Filet Mignons in their cart for a delicious steak dinner for myself and my wife.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alright, that is part of my life spent in retail for now. Please feel free to stop by and see me when I work so I can talk you into buying something...if I made commission I would have like $2.53 or something by now...</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jknight31.blogspot.com/feeds/6490922711946735615/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/8965376930311327624/6490922711946735615' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965376930311327624/posts/default/6490922711946735615'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965376930311327624/posts/default/6490922711946735615'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jknight31.blogspot.com/2011/09/life-in-retail.html' title='Life in Retail'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965376930311327624.post-2063458464357049547</id><published>2011-09-08T15:16:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2011-09-09T11:01:13.237-05:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Cool Grandparents"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Pet Sitting"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Prank"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Scary Dolls"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Texting"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Video"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Youth"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Youth Workers"/><title type='text'>Seen Now Shared 2</title><content type='html'>Welcome to the 2nd installment of Seen Now Shared, where I share things I have recently seen with you, my reader.

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;May look like a lot of people, but still rather easy to get around&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&amp;nbsp;We went to the Minnesota state fair yesterday. I was told it is the 3rd best state fair behind Texas and Iowa. How Iowa? Who knows...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was an incredible day weather wise, with a high in the 70&#39;s, and not a very crowded time, at least that is how it felt. It may have over a million people each day, but the fair has enough space to keep you from feeling like sardines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would have loved to have more time Minnesota&#39;s great get together, but my few hours there were quite fun. They included deep fried snickers, cheese curds, a MN wild rice burger, free samples, lots of animals, and great people watching.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://marthaandtom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_5505.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;213&quot; src=&quot;http://marthaandtom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_5505.JPG&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;Deep Fried Snickers/Instant Cavity...worth it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The MN State fair is all about the food...and mostly about that food being on a stick. Let&#39;s discuss that food,. the Deep Fried snickers was quite delicious. I may have felt cavities occur as soon as I took my first bite, but the taste was well worth it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1364/1263273078_a30987c34b.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;149&quot; src=&quot;http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1364/1263273078_a30987c34b.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;Cheese Curds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We were also told that we had to try the cheese curds at the fair 1st. I am glad we did, they were good. No deep fried candy bar good, but quite tasty.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MN wild rice infused burger was a diving moment as we saw both our pastors at the fair, and both suggested I give it a try. I am glad I did, it was very good. The rice cooked into the meat was a good flavor and their caramelized onions worked very well on it as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align=&quot;center&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; class=&quot;tr-caption-container&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;tr-caption&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: xx-small;&quot;&gt;Butter sculpture...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Please click this &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dglobe.com/event/article/id/51590/&quot;&gt;link&lt;/a&gt; to read about the people who make butter sculptures. Not sure which is more weird, the butter sculptures or the pageant winners that have them make butter sculptures of themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sadly Minnesota&#39;s largest pig had already gone home as it was the last day of the fair. And to me, that is not fair....get it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, we will be going again next year. Next time I want more food on sticks. Maybe I will have some walleye, alligator, or lobster on a stick next year.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jknight31.blogspot.com/feeds/2502197848584809023/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/8965376930311327624/2502197848584809023' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965376930311327624/posts/default/2502197848584809023'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965376930311327624/posts/default/2502197848584809023'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jknight31.blogspot.com/2011/09/3rd-best-state-fair.html' title='The 3rd Best State Fair'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1364/1263273078_a30987c34b_t.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965376930311327624.post-4551768800316769659</id><published>2011-09-04T21:07:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-09-04T21:07:31.910-05:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="13 thoughts"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Conference Realignment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Football Cops"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Mizzou"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="NCAA"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Splash Park"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Tyler Tarver"/><title type='text'>13 Thoughts</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Here are some thoughts running through my head...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ol style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;NCAA conference realignment is so frustrating...it is all about money. NCAA athletics should be about rivalries, which we are gonna lose with all these new conferences. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Why don&#39;t college students understand reserved parking? Ticket after ticket doesn&#39;t stop them either.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Fantasy Football starts soon, I have grown tired of the coming up with hilarious team names. I am now sticking with the same team name...at least until I come up with something funny.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;The wife and I wore our &quot;MIZ&quot; &amp;amp; &quot;ZOU&quot; shirts yesterday. We may be 500 miles away, but I will still be rocking black and gold on gamedays.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;These quick thoughts seems to have a football theme.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Football season did just begin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;This week was really long with too many 8:00 a.m to 9:30 p.m. work days. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;I have been trying to decide lately if I want to start blogging more regularly. It mostly comes down to if I believe I have anything to say that people will want to read.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://tylertarver.com/&quot; style=&quot;color: #0b5394;&quot;&gt;Tyler Tarver&lt;/a&gt;&#39;s blog is a main reason I want to blog. If I can be 1/8th as funny as him maybe I could keep it up.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Tyler Tarver did write a &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.createspace.com/3592701&quot; style=&quot;color: #0b5394;&quot;&gt;book&lt;/a&gt;...I want to read it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Went to a splash park this week. Not a big theme park. A park with fountains and buckets and such. Was a pretty sweet park.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Is how many are in a dozen. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;It is cold here today....which means snow soon. I expect snow within a week, just so I am not upset when it happens sooner than I want.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Lifeline/dp/B002JK6238&quot;&gt;&quot;Lifeline&lt;/a&gt;&quot;&amp;nbsp; by Andrew Ripp&lt;/span&gt;. Andrew Ripp can be heard coming from my office a lot the past few days.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Comeback-Kid-Thats-My-Dog/dp/B004U42C80&quot;&gt;Comeback Kid (That&#39;s my Dog)&lt;/a&gt;&quot;,&amp;nbsp; by Brett Dennen.&lt;/span&gt; This song just makes me happy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Slumber/dp/B005765UXE&quot;&gt;Slumber&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, by NeedtoBreathe.&lt;/span&gt; While Andrew Ripp might be popular in my office this week. NeedtoBreathe can be heard every week, and everyday of the week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Faster-Single/dp/B004SB189E&quot;&gt;Faster&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, by Matt Nathanson.&lt;/span&gt; Glad I added some Matt Nathanson to my playlist. Though never a favorite, I do like some of his jams.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Keep-Your-Head-Up/dp/B0045CMDS6&quot;&gt;Keep Your Head Up&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, by Andy Grammer.&lt;/span&gt; Andy Grammer&#39;s ad on spotify worked on me. I am now giving him a listen and liking what I hear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Beautiful-Things-Single/dp/B002Q5E0TO/ref=sr_shvl_album_2?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1314733127&amp;amp;sr=301-2&quot;&gt;Beautiful Things&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, by Gungor.&lt;/span&gt; Gungor is on fire right now.

When you have no sense of smell people ask you a lot of questions and make a lot of comments.&lt;br /&gt;
Starting now those questions/comments will be documented. (Wish I had started this years ago.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;You can&#39;t smell popcorn?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Can you taste?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Walk out here, you will be able to smell this. (Nope...still can&#39;t.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You can&#39;t smell flowers?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Smell this.....oh yeah....sorry. (It&#39;s ok, sometimes I just pretend to smell it to avoid this.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; You&#39;re an %*^#*^$^$ liar. (one of my favorite reactions)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What does this smell like? (&lt;i&gt;umm...just told you, I don&#39;t have that ability....but...roses, right?&lt;/i&gt;)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/li&gt;

I like to see how far away I can get from the original band/artist. Today I stumbled upon some incredibly hilarious band names.* &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First off let&#39;s start with the band that started it all for me when I saw their name on my list of related artists.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://media.independent.com/img/photos/2009/01/05/PRJPreview156-Meat-Puppets-_t479.jpg?6626f76dcd72edc2e28f46812c7026450162bdb2&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;150&quot; src=&quot;http://media.independent.com/img/photos/2009/01/05/PRJPreview156-Meat-Puppets-_t479.jpg?6626f76dcd72edc2e28f46812c7026450162bdb2&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;li&gt; The Meat Puppets&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Wow! What a name for a band...but no words can describe their group photo to the right. (Do note the hair...you can tell they are from the 80&#39;s.) &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The Afghan Whigs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://images.wikia.com/lyricwiki/images/b/b8/Afghan_whigs.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;110&quot; src=&quot;http://images.wikia.com/lyricwiki/images/b/b8/Afghan_whigs.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Not as exciting as The Meat Puppets, but still random enough that you look twice and wonder. Disappointing when you find out no band members wear afghan whigs though... &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Super Furry Animals&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&amp;nbsp;Another nice band name that catches the eye. The disappointment. Only one of the band members looks furry&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.beermelodies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/SUPER-FURRY-ANIMALS.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;146&quot; src=&quot;http://www.beermelodies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/SUPER-FURRY-ANIMALS.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That wraps up my 1st installment of Band Names. I hope we can all meet again real soon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Let it be noted, these bands may have catchy names, but not catchy enough that I actually listened to their music...maybe sometime soon I can set aside some time to rock out to The Meat Puppets.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jknight31.blogspot.com/feeds/8227318795103181872/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/8965376930311327624/8227318795103181872' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965376930311327624/posts/default/8227318795103181872'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8965376930311327624/posts/default/8227318795103181872'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jknight31.blogspot.com/2011/07/band-names.html' title='Band Names'/><author><name>Unknown</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8965376930311327624.post-7196239719459453702</id><published>2011-07-11T22:18:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2011-07-11T22:18:28.845-05:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Dishes"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Everyday Activities"/><title type='text'>Ordinary Everyday Activities</title><content type='html'>Time to tell how I do ordinary everyday activities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Today&#39;s Topic&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;The Dishes&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;We live in Seminary housing so we do not have a dishwasher......well, I do not, Miriam does. I go old school on dishes and wash by hand. It is pretty simple, just use the brush and dish soap and wash that nasty off there. Ok...fun post right...you can pretty much be done reading now....or continue on if you want more pointless rambling on uninteresting activities.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;I am not a fan of doing the dishes, but I will say this humbly....I am a machine at them after a little over 2 years. Each day while Miriam and I are preparing dinner I am in there washing dishes as we cook. The more I can do before we eat the less I have to do later. I wash with speed and precision, and if you dare be a dish that touched raw meat or chicken you better look out. You are about to get rinsed on by others, washed, rewashed, rewashed, and dominated by me, because I am not getting no salmonella. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;But what happens every time we do the dishes.....I finish up feel good about what I just accomplished, but when I turn around....there are always more on the stove, ALWAYS! It is the most frustrating feeling in the world.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Being in Seminary housing we have &lt;b&gt;limited &lt;/b&gt;(bolded for emphasis! said for extra emphasis) counter space. I don&#39;t know if you read that last sentence....our counter space is very limited. I say this because if you set a dish on the small counter by the sink...it will be washed by me. It is a solid source of frustration as I often wash something still in use because it got set on my pre-wash counter. Don&#39;t you dare set something there....it will be washed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Welp....there you have it...that is how dishes are done. Wasn&#39;t that fun (unintentional rhyme)? Don&#39;t shoot me with a gun (intentional). I hope my team won (unnecessary). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
