I sat here for a while, and came up with "The." Fill in the blank based on your day!

The concrete truck just arrived.
The new ce-ment pond!!
The rain is supposed to be coming.
The rain came and went, and it didn't amount to much.
The 4th Saturday of the month, which means singing at the nursing home again. "Get Together" by the Youngbloods is at least one new song we can do, hopefully.
The We're doing an annual trek down the Connecticut River today, a group of about 16 this year. We put in in Windsor (CT's oldest town) and go for a mile or two on the Farmington River, then enter the Connecticut River and paddle down to Hartford. We will be grilling burgers and swimming at an island mid-way. Weather looks favorable.
(psst, you forgot to start your LTE with "the")
Fixed it.
The motorcycle rally started last night. It's going to be a loud weekend.
The Waterama weekend.
The weekend I hoped would be relaxing because I had a long week but won't be because my wife invited people over on Sunday and I'll have to do all the work.
We were down on the bayou a couple of weeks ago and met a family of gators who were watching our camp while we were gone for the afternoon. Even the small ones are scary.
I mostly use Chrome as my browser now, but I happened across this article, which caused me to fire up FF and install Lightbeam. Interesting stuff. The wgom is very spare.
fascinating data visualizations with Lightbeam.
I try to keep it clean. Funding via donations eliminates the need for ads and ads are the driver of a lot bad things on the web.
speaking of which, when are we due for the next fundraiser? And when is one of the shysters in the Nation gonna do the paperwork to set us up as a nonprofit? 🙂
We'd get denied after a year of review. The rules are pretty strict about this and it is a lot of work to get it and keep it.
Ok, then why don't we start a church? We already have a preacher on staff!
I'm also ordained, though my process was significantly less rigorous than JeffA's.
So a while back we had a conversation about pocket knives and non-staby everyday carry box openers. Dr. Chop lost my CRKT folder to the TSA* last week, so I needed to replace it. That one was good and staby, but also a good piece of design. I decided to replace it with a trusty, gentlemanly, non-staby, olde-time Case XX sod buster jr. My knife arrived today, and it's all that it's cracked up to be ---> a pocket knife. Yeah, it breaks two of my rules for a pocket knife (one hand open, locking...), but it makes up for it through classic style, and great design.
*TSA... theater of security at it's best. Dr. Chop flew to Tuscon with the knife tucked neatly in the pocket of my Banjo messenger bag, and the TSA in NOLA certainly didn't see it. When trying to get back to NOLA, Tuscon TSA found the knife and asked her to discard it. (I'm sure someone is selling that on e-bay right now for about 19.99).
Cole Hamels threw a no hitter against the Cubs.
Ruben Amaro now plotting to get two bags of magic beans in trade talks.
In Chicago right now and almost went to that game. Going to the Sunday game instead. Dang.
The Boy was at the game today. So we know whom to blame.

Did I know this? I'd like to hear the story.
Here ya go
Like I said, not nearly as rigorous.
