Can Eat Off 'Em Now

Floors got mopped on consecutive days.  Yesterday - because they needed it.  Today - because I got dog poop on my slippers and tracked it all over the house.  ~L

Young Tongue

For this post, my 100th TWW entry, I intended to share a reflective essay on why I enjoy keeping a journal.

Tonight, that subject was trumped at the supper table as I watched the oldest boy spend nearly a minute licking out a spaghetti stain from his t-shirt.  ~L

Growing Our Own Groceries



Eating locally produced food is popular these days. Tonight's entire menu originated only a couple of dozen feet from our dinner table - including the hand cut apple wood used in the grill. ~L

* pork chops
* green beans
* applesauce
* home brew beer

Bladder Matter

At the doctor today for a urinalysis.  The last time I peed in a cup the transaction involved alot of beer and a moving vehicle.

Thought of this scene while in the act.  ~L

Rusk County Rainbows

An unexpected October squall delivers a brief double rainbow (sometimes triple) to the Blue Hills region near the village of Bruce in Rusk County, WI.  ~L

Sick Humor

When asked for my preferred method of receiving an annual flu shot (nasal or needle), I replied, "Smokable, if ya got it?" - much to the dismay of the teachers and students waiting outside the school nurse's office.

With no privacy curtains available I decided against requesting a suppository.  ~L

3,000 Hits

It's taken 91 entries for The Writing Wredneck reach 3,000 hits. If it was part of Major League Baseball it'd be eligible for the Hall of Fame.

Thanks to all who follow TWW - especially those who've told me they do (mom, wife, son, Tony, Lee, Jan, Ty V, Erin, Jason, Megan).

According to my blog stats rednecks have no international boundaries.

United States 2,684
Netherlands 63
Russia 34
Canada 32
United Kingdom 31
Germany 27
Romania 17
India 12
Iran 9
Mexico 9

A surprising surge from India this week bumped this entry into the top spot for most viewed (75). Second most viewed is this short video (68).

Thanks again everyone.  ~L
