The Ugly Table #48
POTATOES ARE ROOTS. THEY GROW IN DIRT. DEAL.
C: There is a brown spot in my potato.
ME: I’ll get you a new one.
C: This one has a brown spot to.
ME: That is pretty common.
C: Really?!
ME: (What I wanted to say) Yeah, you numbskull. Potatoes are roots that grow underground in dirt, they have irregularities, such as ‘brown spots’ Sorry we didn’t x-ray your freaking potato first and check it for brown spots. It won’t kill you, in fact some people even eat the skins, which are of course giant brown spots that cover the entire potato. But I’m sure pushing 60 years of age you already knew all of this, so why are you being such a dick?
SIDENOTE: The best part was when his wife told him to shut up after he complained his side of butter and sour cream were touching each other in the same side dish. Sir. You are a brown spot in my life. Go away.

Snoring in the morning
Then a bath
I’m ready for questions

Today My Man Me Doesn’t See
Been eating complete pizzas
Getting big in the middle
Reading slower
Realizing idea clouds
Vanquish nothing

‘Hats Off’ to Councilor Rolfing for proving my point
During the SF city council informational meeting yesterday, the Health Department released a scathing report (Part II) that the people of Sioux Falls are fat, getting fatter, drink too much and don’t eat enough veggies.
Duh.
Even if representative Brian Liss thinks eliminating a food tax would make us fatter, he couldn’t be more wrong. Healthy eating (fresh fruits and veggies) are more expensive to purchase then unhealthy food. Don’t believe me, go look at the dollar menu at most fast food joints. Do you see a side of broccoli or an apple on those menus? It is time SD faced the facts and eliminated the food tax.
But during the meeting councilor Rolfing made a great point about the lack of physical activity in our school system and how PE classes have been cut. I would like to thank Rex for proving my point about building an indoor public pool in conjunction with the school district. Put a public indoor pool at a separate location and it will be under utilized. Build it next to a school and you will get maximum usage. It’s time for separate public entities in our community to start working together on joint projects that not only will save taxpayers time and money but will help eleviate struggles in our community. It seems the county, the city and the school district have this ‘go it alone’ attitude. That kind of attitude doesn’t benefit the community as a whole.
The first drawlings of a new EC are revealed today
I’m not cheering the game, I’m yelling for a hotdog. I like the modern ‘Big Box’ look of the building. We should get a construction discount for only using right angles.
