A Day at the Fair 2006

Mom snuck up on me as I was attempting my Herb Kohl's flavored milk experiment. Experiment #1 saw me attempting to mix Pabst Blue Ribbon with Strawberry milk, which, as everyone involved in the experiment can certainly attest to, was a huge mistake. Beer and milk were definitely never meant to be mixed together and then consumed. Experiment #2 combined root beer and strawberry milk, which the last video proved actually tasted alright. Everyone involved finally went home happy.

Jenny and Mom stole my camera while I was busy drinking beer and milk. Usually this means that chaos ensues and some weird and random pictures wind up on my memory card that I eventually have to delete. But not today.

There's not much more in life that Jenny loves as much as corn. Sure, there's family, friends, music, Gizmo, but corn places a close second to all of those things. Give it to her on the cob, and she'll tear it to pieces. Don't believe me? Invite her over in the summer and provide the corn. She'll rock the cob.

You thought that I was lying. Admit that you didn't believe me, because acceptance is the first step towards getting your life back on the right track. Jenny rocks the corn like no other, and in my 25 years of life, I've never seen anything as mystifying and spectacular as this barren corn cob. How in the world is she able to nibble off every single teensy weensy kernel? It's just not normal; it's unnatural. Her powers of corn off the cob removal put her in an elite group of eating superheroes led by the infamous Kobayashi from Japan.

Jenny and I become the Farmer and his Wife in Grant Wood's famous 1930 painting "American Gothic". Since Jenny and I are anything but ordinary, I portrayed the old wife and Jenny was the pitch-fork wielding elderly farmer. We didn't necessarily make the two greatest looking heads in the frame, but I bet we were the most random silly and random. I challenge some other kids to look this ridiculous.

How can I even start to describe this picture. At this point, we were tired and hot so we decided to check out all of the crazy exhibits and vendors in the brand spanking new Wisconsin Exposition Center. I was tired as heck, so I decided to grab an energy drink. I bought a Coca-Cola Full Throttle Fury. I then attempted to show how furious the energy drink made me, which resulted in this scary picture. 

After another successful day at the fair, we made our way back to the car and completed our 2006 Wisconsin State Fair adventure. Truth be told (and anyone who peruses this website, especially the 2005 Day at the Fair section, can attest to that) we didn't do nearly as much this year, but I did have a great time with the two most important women in my life. They took the time out of their busy schedules to hang out with some old crazy dude who needed someone to hang out with, which earned them super mega ultra points in my eyes and most importantly in the eyes of God. I do believe that I have just made the decision that I will now annually attend the Wisconsin State Fair with these two lovely ladies until we are unable to do so. If you are in the mood for some craziness, contact me around August 2 - 12 if you want to go and goof around with us at the 2007 Wisconsin State Fair. I'll see you there!
