Playing Cards: If your dealt a bad hand in life, it forces you to play smarter. Don't ever play cards with me for money. You'll end up making a deposit to BJ's college fund."

Line to vote is now out the door. Parking is becoming a problem. The next hour will be critical.

Took my lunch break and getting ready for the afternoon rush.

Below is my table set up.

lunch time rush seems to be over. Talked to a number of people about coming back tonight for the caucus.

We have 4 Obama supporters and one obnoxious Clinton supporter working the streets outside.

I will be doing posts today while working the Obama campaign. Stay tuned….

10:45 am working the visibility table at the precinct. Lunch crowd starting show up. WE Out number Clinton suppoters 4 to 1.

Yes, my oldest son has found his calling. I am now rest assured that my retirement can start immediately. To say the least, this rhyming talent has Mommy Bacchus horrified, and I have been admonished for encouraging such behavior. Her real issue is that he sometimes uses inappropriate words that can make first-time listeners uncomfortable. I say that parental encouragement with obvious talents can only help a child achieve success in other endeavors. Plus, with a little practice and training and (we) could win a Grammy.

See his latest work and you be the judge.

Boomp Boomp, Chalk;
Da Boomp Boomp, Chalk
Wash your hands,
Wash your hands,
Wash your stinky underpants…..
Boomp Boomp, Chalk,
Da Boomp, Boomp, Chalk

Repeat Chorus: over and over until you drive Mommy Bacchus crazy.

Look out Jay Z, BJ from Dallas, is coming at ya.

The winter months usually has my skin feeling like a brown paper bag in the mornings. For years I have searched for a more affordable solution that has an acceptable smell and convenient to purchase. Because my skin gets so dried out during the winter I am usually forced to purchase an expense over the counter moisturizing product that is hard to find. The one sure thing I have used is the bath and body works body cream products but that works well for the wife and kids but the scents don’t go well with my personality, if you know what I mean. Plus paying $ 12 for 8 oz of a product.

Last year I ran across a new Gold Bond product that came in a small travel-like container that I used primarily for my dry hands. Once they came out with a larger version of 14 oz for body use I was sold. No more dry skin in the morning and I still use it for my hands. I have shared it’s use with friends and some men use it after shaving as an alternative to after shave balm. My oldest son uses it for his dry skin and the wife looks for it when she runs out of her products. Overall its a product I highly recommend and suggest its use. It can be found at any drug store or discount super store. You may have trouble finding it so look on the top and bottom shelves.

Good Luck my fellow dry skin people.
