Dear Madame Zoltar

Hello, my happy hostas! How are you? I know, I know, I keep extolling the virtues of our wonderful weather week after week, but it just doesn’t end. I must say that this has been the most pleasant August in my recent memory. We did have a cold and wet spring, and wretchedly hot July, so we deserve this. Soak it up, my dears. You never know when Mother Nature is going to get nasty again.

As the month wears on, the local events wind down. Below on the right is the usual screenshot from the Journal Times’ online article, “Your guide to summer fun in Racine County,” http://www.journaltimes.com/lifestyles/leisure/article_ff8c2baa-7672-11e0-88b9-001cc4c03286.html We still have Music on the Monument, and next week is a First Friday downtown. Huzzah!

We also have our glorious Superbowl Champion Green Bay Packers warming up for the regular season. Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah! I get my Packers information here: http://www.jsonline.com/sports/packers/ Watch out, Indianapolis Colts! Our Packers are going to ride you into the ground. Oh my.

To be blunt, there is nothing else in the news that I wish to talk about. Locally, on the state level, nationally, the world – everywhere it appears dismal. Perhaps we need to leave our world to escape its woes. Thank goodness that we have Mr. hale-bopp on board as our guide to the rest of the universe. I’ve been known to travel to some other-worldly realms, too, so we should have all of the bases covered. We gotta get out of this place:



How’s that for a segue? I loved those little Animal guys. And so much voice from such a small young man. Oh deer, I hope you enjoyed the animal side of me. (Get it?)

I enjoyed your visit today to read my blog. Thank you for stopping by. It is always my honor to host you. JT Irregulars! Huzzah! “Long live its fame and long live its glory / And long may its story be told.”

Please send your stories to: madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com.

Soak up the rays, my dear family, except for those of you who are allergic/sensitive to the sun. Don’t forget the sun block. Don’t forget a hat. An umbrella might be nice. Don’t forget to stay hydrated. Don’t forget to – aw, forget it, just stay home. Ha, ha. I’m joking. I love you all. Nympholepsy!

What a terrific blog, Madame. I couldn't agree with you more, on all points, especially the part about the JTI and its long life and story being told.

I believe I've been suffering from Nympholepsy... look it up, folks, it doesn't have anything to do with the similar term. I also loved the video. That is a true classic. There are few videos, in my most recently acquired internet ADD, that I watch from start to finish... but I easily made it through this one.

Cool video, Mme. Z. I talked to those guys like you said to do. They were very interested in the liar. Thank you.

Excellent tune, Madame Z!

I looked up that word you said and all it had as a definition was: "The pent up insatiable desire to choke the living sh---- (I better not, Mdm Z's is a family blog) "stuff" out of someone who so disparately deserves it."

Yep, that pretty much sums it up, loggy. lol
