Disorganized Chaos

Have you seen that show called “What Would You Do?” We use insight communications for our television programs and this show seems to be a new one. It’s wild. It’s like one of those hidden camera shows where a crazy thing happens at a public place, and they record people’s reactions. Like one episode was at a restaurant and customers witnessed an actor pretending to give his date drugs in her drink while she went to the bathroom. It was so crazy to see how different people react based on their feelings about the situation. Some people were nervous, and told the person they were with that it was none of their business. Other people confronted the man, but didn’t tell the date anything. Other people didn’t say anything to the date, but went to the bathroom and told the girl. I think that that is what I would have done, if it was me. I’d be scared to confront someone who was evil enough to spike a drink, but there is no way I couldn’t tell the woman what I saw.

Besides what I’ve heard about the humidity, the wife says she will not move to Alabama; she’s afraid that her inner redneck will come out. To bad, I thought I’d found a decent looking home for just a few thousand dollars. Well, there goes that idea. Not sure what my next hair-brained scheme will be. I was thinking about buying a boat.

For her sixtieth birthday, my mom and a few of her adorable friends traveled to Washington state to hike the trails in Mount Rainer National Park. I characterize them as “adorable” because that seemed to be the title all the younger hikers gave them as this crazy group of soon-to-be seniors tackled ten mile hikes in some of our country’s most beautiful terrain. They stayed in Yakima a few nights and travelled north to see what else the area had to offer. Now my grandmother, who will be eighty at the end of the year, will be going with another group of true seniors. I don’t believe they will be hiking the trails like mom and the “Adorables”, but I know they will love riding through them on their tour busses. Grandma has already checked www.direc4u.com to see if all her shows will be offered along the trail, and sure enough her regularly scheduled programming will be just as it is at home. What a difference a generation makes! Either way, both young ladies will experience the mountain country in style.
