Annoying Orange

YOLO

Cool Cali day:  Leucadia Donut Shoppe, Carlsbad to back school shop for Jilly,  haircut for Josh, surf shop, and Schwack for a tasty linner.  Now to chillax and ease into the work week (aka the final week of the kiddo's summer vacay).

Ridonculous -- how high above the beam she is!

So, it wouldn't be a blog about 2012 without a mention of the fabulous London games that just finished.  I am going through withdrawals.  Some memorable things we'll probably not see again in my lifetime (or at least until Rio):

• Michael Phelps winning 23,000 medals in swimming
• Kerry and Misty Mae three-peating at beach volleyball.  It is amazing how they cover the entire court on that thick sand.
• Usain Bolt completing a double - triple, looking like he never even reaches full speed everytime he runs.
• Gabby Douglas becoming the first African-American to win all round gymnastics gold
• Aly Raisman sticking up for Jewish olympians everywhere
• The Spice Girls re-uniting (at least, I hope we don't have to see this again)

Apocalypse Update:

Today there were two, not one, but two earthquakes.  And my old blog post "Yiddish words for penis" is trending.  That is all.  Carry on.

My Grampa Sam once said:

There's nothing like a chunk of sharp cheese and a cold beer...



...he also liked rye bread dipped into sour cream and garlic.

Yappy hour again
