Getting the band back together

Hello devoted readers,

not too much new to report here. I went up to Becker to visit the Werner's, sorry no pics, we did lay down a few jams, but I am having some problems with loading the vids onto the computer. Maybe soon. Sam went out to eat with her lady friends while I was gone, no pics from that either, we were bad this week. Not much else new to report, got a little writers block. Not too much to report with Max. He's getting big and is taking a step here and there, still prefers crawling as his main mode of transportation.

*** I was pretty disappointed in today's youth this weekend. Me and Wern played some hoops at the community center, there was some kids kicking a ball around and one time the ball whizzed like 6 inches from my face. No heads up, watch out! nothing. So I glared at the kid and didn't even get a sorry. I really wanted to yell at him, but I didn't. ******

Let me tell you, it gets worse...or better. You may like this comment or think I'm a total ass. Took the 3 kids sliding at the Proctor community sliding hill last winter. Mind you, it's sliding, think like 9 mos to 12 year old kids, right? Along come 4-5 15 year old boys going down the hill in like hoodies and jeans on some crappy sled they probably found on the side of the road. They blast by the kids going down the hill yelling "you fucker, I'm gonna get you!" I can lay down the cuss words with anyone but hey, do it in front of my kids and a whole hill full of them and I'm gonna get pissed. So I track down these kids saying "hey, hey, you". They brush me off and start to run up the hill, I run after him and say "hey you in the black, I'm talking to you", he keeps going. I grab his sweatshirt by the sleeve, (which in retrospect, I do not suggest doing). His friend says "hey, leave him alone", as the kid twists away from me. I said, "hey I don't appreciate you talking like that here. Look around, look at all these kids, you don't need to be talking like that here." So he totally walks away with nothing to say. Ruined my fun at the sliding hill that day. I have a few others I could share. I think you were right on! Think of this...obnoxious people get away with things because polite people don't say anything.
