Junior Prom 2010

What a busy weekend. We headed to the city to pick up Tanner and Abbie on Friday afternoon. Traffic was a nightmare! Got home late and then headed to Pizza Doctors for the buffet.

Saturday was rush off to the track meet. Jayde ran the third leg of the 4x200 relay. They took 3rd place. Then rush home to get ready for the prom. Stopped to see Granny and then to Riverside park for pictures. Jayde and Tanner went to Fayze's and we went to Buzzard Billy's. The parade of couples was at 7:00 at the WaterFront. We went to that and then headed home.

Sunday Morning was rush to Church. Jayde spoke on sexual purity, I wrote the talk. It was awesome, of course. Then rush to the cities to show Tanner the Mall of America. We ate supper at Bubba Gumps. Tanner's favorite food is shrimp so it seamed like the right place to go. We got home a 11 that night. POOPED!

It's the end of the road. Happy trails to you.

The old guy at the concert.

Monday night we loaded up the family truckster and headed to St.Paul for a not so family concert. We went to see the "Black Eyed Peas". Even though they are not really my kind of music I do enjoy a few of there songs. There stage show was amazing. It's more like a Broadway show at times than a concert. My daughter loves this band and it was her dream to see this show. They were entertaining and I enjoyed there portion of the show.

Joining the Black Eyed Peas were a couple of rap bands, LMFAO and Ludacris. This is where the old guy part comes in. I have no appreciation for this music. Not the rap part but the words and subject of the songs are disgusting. It amazes me that this kind of music exists in today's ultra hyper racial-sexist world. Where has the feminist movement gone? I don't think they listen to Ludacris or LMFAO.  It amazes me that young girls today take no offense in being sung about as pieces of meat that exist for nothing more than sex. And the names that were used to described girls was horrible.

The entire race thing is out the door when you go to a rap concert. I have never heard the "N" word more in my life. To think that there are people that lose there career over the "N" word once, as they should. And then you got guys making a career singing about the "N" word.  I guess it doesn't matter what you sing about. Just don't say it!

I could go on and on. As I said I'm the old guy at the rap concert, and glad to be old in this case. I'm going to listen to Country for the rest of the week. All for now.....
