You have just gotten an award that has been given to a muppet.
OK, so Paul McCartney won for music
and Kermit got one for....
being green?
That is right.
The coveted Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Not that Mr. McCartney isn't worthy of a star.
It is just that it really doesn't mean that much anymore, does it?
Dogs get one.
That's right.
Lassie and Rin Tin Tin got one.
So do movies
like "Godzilla"
or soundtracks
like "Chicago".
Even cartoon characters such as
Winnie the pooh
and Tinker Bell got them.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame people are drawing the line, by God.
No reality show stars.
But, if you produce them
that's fine.
Mark Burnett, the king of reality shows got one.

Tacos Are Not Just For Lunch Anymore
Awesome news!
We got a check for the cost of having the truck fixed.
Things did not get ugly.
As soon as we walked in the shop, the guy that runs it told us he was going to write us a check.
Apparently, NAPA- the company that was supposed to put money back on our card- gave a $400 credit to the wrong person.
They don't even know who ended up with it.
They were, however, able to verify that it did not go on OUR card.
Which we already knew.
Course, the guy could have called us.
He also was just waiting for us to go in there to write the check.
Said he didn't know our address.
I believe all that info. is in our account.
But, whatever.
Oh, I had another one of those "Damn, I wish I would have had my camera ready" moments.
On the way to the car shop, we saw an interesting sight.
See, it was such a nice day.
Too nice to keep all the windows or doors shut on your vehicle.
Yep, going down the road was a minivan.
The side door was all the way slid open
and sitting there right by the open door was an old lady, staring out.
All the windows were shut-
just the door wide open.
She didn't appear to be strapped into her seat belt.
I hope they didn't lose her somewhere.
"Where's Grandma?"
" I don't know. She was just there."
And to top off the day, I learned something.
My teenage daughter can be very enlightening.
Did you know tacos was slang for vagina?
Who knew?
I thought it was just a food.
I looked it up.
Technically it is the vulva or women's genitalia.
But, I guess she's close enough.
