A couple months ago I was sitting in a restaurant eating lunch when I overheard an odd confession at an adjacent table. A young high school looking girl said the following to her male friend: “My parents leave the TV on all night long for the dog.”
Wow. At first I thought this was just plain funny. But then it occurred to me that these people were wasting quite a lot of electricity by leaving the TV on all night long. They must really really love their dog!
In case anyone out there collects Baskin-Robbins memorabilia … here is a lot of 10 Baskin-Robbins 31st birthday placemat posters from 1976. Wow, I was only 6 years old when these were made. They are in good condition without any rips or tears.

WOW! Nice article in the Pantagraph about the fundraising auction! Click here to read it!
The old historic Allentown Union Hall (a.k.a. Allentown Hall) needs our help. It was structurally damaged over the winter months and if it is not repaired soon it will have to be torn down for safety reasons. The Allentown Hall was built in 1892 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
There are two ways that you can help save the Allentown Hall. You can donate something to the auction fundraiser or you can buy something from the auction fundraiser. Details about this auction fundraiser are on the attached flyer:

Please contact either Gail Kruse at 309-925-5497 or Kory Rickett at 309-925-5085 if you wish to donate anything to the auction fundraiser. The auction fundraiser will be held on Saturday August 1, 2009 at 10 AM in the Tremont Community Building.
Oh yeah, they will accept monetary donations as well. Just mail your check to Allentown Union Hall Association, 15905 Uhlman Road, Tremont, IL 61568. Thanks for your help!
Okay, there’s no more denying it. I’m one of those cheesy actor types. Now that hundreds of Park Avenue Baptist Church members have seen the Father’s Day service introduction video that I did last weekend, the cat is totally out of the bag.
In case you want to watch it for yourself and make fun of me later, here is the video on YouTube:
I’m sorry, but this just stuck me funny when I saw it at the store.
“I’m trying to lose a few pounds, so I’ll just buy these Twinkies and Ding Dongs. Hey, they’re only a hundred calories!”
Funny. Those marketing guys are good, huh?
