Well, it's that time of year again. If you have never been to Iowa State Fair than you don't know what you are missing. There is everything from the "Butter Cow" to giant boar that has gonads as big as basketballs, no I am not kidding. The food choices a plenty. Corn dogs, funnel cakes, and turkey legs, roasted corn-on-the-cob are the norm but if you want something on a stick you have come to the right place. There is chicken on a stick, pork chop on a stick, meatballs on a stick, (one of my favorites) cheese on a stick, deep fried pickle on a stick, and last but not least deep fried Twinkies, Snickers, and Milky Ways on a stick. The new item last year was "Hot Beef Sundae" that's right, bread, mash potatoes, rost beef, gravy, and a cherry tomatoe on top. I hear it is pretty good. I have been to a few other state fairs with high points being a turkey leg and some carnival rides. If you are in the neighborhood join us and experience a "real" State Fair.
OK, so I vented a , but I do so feel better about bowling. We had a meeting with the city board, league officers, and team captains and set things straight. Let me just say, without going into detail, a couple of ladies and I use the term loosely, tried to come in and take over the league. Well, after the meeting they pretty much were put in their place. The results of the meeting must have been what I needed. I bowled pretty good, 177-199-201.
Do you hear it……..the sounds of planes, satellite trucks, and news people rolling out of Iowa to New Hampshire.
