Pork Tornados

There's a local band that I'd like to see live, especially if the songs are delivered with this beauty.

Occupy Some Other Place

I've not paid a whole lot of attention to the "Occupy Wall Street" movement. What I have seen has been unimpressive. People are protesting the 99% of the people that are rich. They protest because they want change.

Okay, first of all, if they want to effect change, you have to pass laws. Second of all, gathering in a park and chanting slogans will um, not pass laws. Third of all, when there was a request for them to move in order to clean, they thought it was wrong because they were asked to move.

Well, I came across this graphic. It summarizes my opinion.

Recovery

Megan had her surgery and she is recovering now. We got home from the hospital around 10 PM.

Hospital

Megan is having surgery. I'm in a waiting room on 4th floor. They've taken her back and all I can do is pass time away on a PC that has Windows XP installed. Some show called "The Chew" is on ABC and the people on the show are amazingly annoying.

I am hoping the Hawkeyes win tomorrow night but more than that, I'm hoping Megan does okay with her surgery. If you have a God and if you have time, prayers are appreciated.

Opeth

I returned from the Twin Cities on Saturday after the mediocre Opeth show on Friday. Kevin and I stayed at the Radisson Hotel that was less than 2 blocks from the First Avenue Club. It is the same club that Prince filmed "Purple Rain" within. I would happily go see a show in that venue again.

Opeth? LIke I said in the previous paragraph, they were mediocre. It was good to see them, but they were mellow for heavy metal. I know the band is experiencing a lot of backlash from their fans about their new release "Heritage" and how it's more progressive than metal.

50 Years

It's over. My in-laws' 50th anniversary has come and gone. It was a good time. I had a really good time. But now it's over. It's now Sunday night and I return to work tomorrow. First of all, I am still loving my job. It is kicking butt! I can't help look forward to Monday.

The rest of my week is looking busy.

Monday - kids have lessons - also How I met your mother, 2 Broke Girls, 2 1/2 Men, Mike and Molly, and WWE
Tuesday - during the day, I have a 1/2 day training class. After work, I am going to mow a yard. At night is the new "Family Jewels" episode where Shannon Tweed answers the proposal from Gene Simmons.
Wednesday - Alex has RE; also Survivor, The Middle, Modern Family, and Real World - San Diego
Thursday - not sure, but I have an all-day training session @ work. The Big Bang Theory, Grey's, Private Practice, and TNA.
Friday - Opeth concert in the Twin Cities with Kevin
Saturday - return from the Twin Cities
Sunday - not sure

And then it starts over.
