    This weekend here is our county fair. You'd think it could be a big deal. But it's not. The fair this year is the worst ever. Apparently the carnival they were going to get cancelled and we almost didn't have anything. They do have a few things. About four rides, if that's what you want to call them. And maybe about four games. And a few food stands. Not even a place to get an elephant ear, my favorite. There are the usual animals, but not even many of those any more.

I'm really not a fan of politics. They are usually the kind of people who if I knew them personally I would not like them anyway because they usually give off this kind of vibe that tells me they really don't care about me one little bit. So I don't matter. So that one is over and done with for now. Now comes the next big mud slinging event. The winner will be...... Now if I told you that I would...
