"Save The Bees!"

Save the what?! Believe it or not, Texas is facing an epidemic of...well...epidemic proportions. There is a new disease going around called colony collapse disease that is currently decimating the honeybee colonies to the point of economic ruin. Now you may be asking, "But Mike, how can something that we shoo away at picnics and kill at will be that vital to our existence?" Well, calm down and I'll let you in.

Currently bees are responsible for $200 million in honey every year. Now I like honey as much as the next person. In fact, honey is the only food that cannot spoil. And I admit, when the sopapillas come around at the end of a mexican dinner, I'll be the first to ask "Hey, ya got any honey chief?" But I think I would be okay if there weren't anymore honey around. But that's not all that bees are good for. They also pollinate a lot...and I mean a lot of crops such as apples and almonds that everyone needs in some capacity.


You know how hard it is to find a video on honeybees? This is the best of the bunch!
(get it? Honey? Bunch? boo...)

God bless the bees. May they return to their colonies to save the cheerleader...save the world.

Moving on...

Had a great time at the zoo last week. If you wanna see what we saw click here.

Also had a great time at the Highlands opening too. Here's some highlights:


I told you this place was like a small town!


(to the tune of 'Because I Got High')

"I wear this funny hat...because I got high"
"I wear this funny shirt...because I got high"
"I wear these funny pants...because I got high"

"Because I got high...because I got high...because I got hi-i-i-igh..."


KC: "Hey everyone! Wanna hear some new crap or the old crap?"
Us: "Old crap! Old crap! Old crap!"
KC: You people suck you know that? I've written great songs lately! "Shake Your Booty Part 2"..."Get Down Tonight (Again)"...this stuff is Grammy gold!
Us: "Look, just sing what was considered music in 1976 before we rush the stage."

Here is what the Studio Movie grill looks like during the daytime...


...and at nighttime...



Ahh...creative bliss...

Congratulations Dirk Nowitzki on being the first European B-baller to win the MVP award. Still cannot believe we were bounced in the first round to a team that is currently down 2-0 to Utah. Ack.

This week went by fast seems like. Sure, we're all working for Friday but why not expand the work week to eight days? Three days off would do everyone a world of good. Man, if I were president...think I could get this passed? First thing I would do is listen to like everyone in the world and PULL OUR MEN OUT OF IRAQ. People are dying needlessly over there and creating a lot more fatherless kids then there needs to be. That's just me. To be illogical for just a moment...here are some things I would do if I were president:

Raise the minimum wage to $9/hr. Can people live in $5.15 an hour? Of course they can't. Assuming to fill up your car it costs $30...so after taxes you'd have to work seven hours to fill 'er up? That's crazy!

Someway...somehow...provide medical/dental/prescription coverage to every man, woman and child in America. This has to be done. Every time I see a kid with bad teeth...or sick even though there is a medicine available...really saddens my heart.

And finally...

Have a national Xbox360 or PS3 tournament in every game. This is dumb I know but America seems to be all about how good they are at these kinds of things so why not welcome it with open arms? Have all kinds of prizes.

What would you do if YOU were president?
