   Join me for the Taste of Home Cooking School with the Evansville Courier and Press on Friday Nov. 14th from 4pm til the end.   The Center is a great place to come and see Chef Dana cook up some specialties that you can easily duplicate.  It is always a great time and you will have the chance to win a great appliance or other prizes.  I am the emcee and would love to see everyone there.  You never know....I may be calling your name as a big prize winner.  Thanks to everyone at the Courier and Press for asking me to host the show.  I love the people there.

   I'm so sick of negative ads for political office.  I'm almost to the point of not voting for anyone because they are all so out to lunch.  As my daddy used to say....Their rear end is out of their underwear!  The major problem with these ads, besides being sophmoric and stupid, is they don't educate the public about what a candidate stands for and what a candidate pledges to do.  The ads just focus on things the other person has or has not done.  Many times an ad will talk about something the candidate voted for when the issue was a minor shoestring amendment to a bill that had a major, important thing in it which needed to be voted for.  Sometimes a politician has to vote for something he or she would rather not because the other more important issue needs a yes vote.  These slim balls that slip in these shoestring amendments need to be dealt with too.  I say lets make it a law that candidates can not do neg ...

   Fall arrives today and summer will officially be over.  The Fall Festival will be here in only two weeks.  Where does the time go?  It should stay kind of warm for us this week though.  Hopefully we won't get any more Hurricane Ike like winds.  I think everybody's power is back on now.  My wife Laurie is kind of scared of windstorms now.  She doesn't want to use the bathroom in the 5-gallon bucket again.  Yes....we really did that.   Have a great Fall!  Talk to you soon.
