This week's WRR&W will use a slightly different, and goofier, format. Mostly, it will involve my asking a lot of questions that may or may not have answers. Here goes:
*Do you think Master Carpenter and host of "New Yankee Workshop" Norm Abrams ever sneaks into his workshop late at night, turns on all the bazillions of power tools there and starts ripping, sawing, and shaping wood without wearing safety glasses or hearing protection while buzzed on Sam Adams beer?
*How come every social problem can only be corrected by spending more money on it? Do you think we'll ever hear a public official or school administrator say that more money won't change a thing?
*Why hasn't evolution created a bird smart enough not to fly into windows or build its nest in a rain gutter?
*Will the new Busch Stadium be a hitter's or a pitcher's ballpark? Will I need a cosignor to afford a beer and bratwurst at the new park? How long before "new" Busch becomes just "Busch"? Who will hit the first homer in the new stadium? (Hope it's not a Cub or a Met--yechhh!)
*Isn't it ironic that a virus that attacks birds is called "flu"?
*Did Hitler have anybody check the reliability records of vehicles built in Germany
before embarking on world conquest?
*Who will the St. Louis Rams play in the Super Bowl?
*Who gives a rats patootie for any more silly questions?
Peace Out!

Personally, I think that Norm Abrams probably thinks that safety glasses look really dorky and stupid but he doesn't want to get sued by a poor chump trying to create an antique looking dresser who gets his eye gouged out by flying saw dust. Not so sure about the Sam Adams part though. He might be more partial to good ol' St. Louis AB products.
Yes, birds are rather stupid sometimes. The whole flying into windows thing...well my parents cat was smart enough to realize that if it hid under the pine tree in front of the house, whenever a bird flew into the window and knocked itself out on the ground, before the bird came to she could make a tasty feast out of it. Rather gross if you ask me.
Just one more post. The "new" Busch will be new for at least a couple seasons. At least until the "new" ballpark village is built and they have something "newer" to talk about.
It's pretty funny how everyone calls the "old" busch the "original" busch when from what I understand, the Sportsman Park was called Busch in it's later years before the "old" Busch was built...
Further proof that cats are evil. Everyone knows that retrievers and chinchillas are clearly superior pets.
That's why I'm not a cat person.
