Bush Bra/ Training Bra



One day while driving home I noticed a contraption across the street at the neighbors. They had put a tarp over a shrub next to their house and pulled it with a strap and tied it to a tree. That looks like a bush bra, pushing, pulling uplifting the bush. They are training that bush to lean away from the house.. Very clever. I'd seen similar things done with trees. It reminded me of the old adage, Train up a child the in way he should go...

Later I walked across the street to take a photo. Sera, a friend from school was there and informed me they were preparing to paint her grandmother's house. Oh, ok still very clever.

Made in the Image

How you Know Your Famous.
You know you have reached stardom and fame when the local Corn Maze company designs a puzzle in your image. Yes, this is true. I recently read Bear River Bottoms designed their corn maze in the image of Larry Miller.

You too could have someone walking through your brain or exploring your vena cava or skirting
around all your lumps and bumps. What could be more fun than having children running down your
nose and across your clavicle. You too could have a lost and disconcerted Y W leader sitting on you patella in the dark crying ready to give up.

Forget the Hollywood footprint in the cement when you can have your image made into a Corn Maze.

Consumer Report/ Fines

Fines
I told you about getting a parking ticket which I paid on time then noticed last weekend I failed to mail the check.. Now they’ll probably want to charge me double.

Not only have I received a parking fine but the library fined me for and empty bag. True I checked out a magazine and took it home in the plastic zip lock bag. But I returned the magazine on time without the bag. Next time I checked out a book I had a 50 cent fine on the empty bag. Pleeze, I protested, and the worker said, “We use these all the time.” Since I had the 50 cents in my pocket I paid her. I think if it had been one of the older workers, who knew me, I could have weaseled out of the fine.

Fine Arts
The fine Arts Department is producing “Sweeny Todd” as their big musical of the year. That should be talk for the barber shop. This week, Tennessee Williams,” Glass Menagerie” opens. He had a depressing life and wrote same type of dialogue, “Street Car Named Desire” If I want to watch yelling and arguments for entertainment I’ll watch Judge Judy in court, or Montell Williams show. Can’t they find something positive and uplifting to perform? BYU is doing “ Thoroughly Modern Millie” this year.
