It’s a good thing we didn’t have a winning world cup soccer team last year. Why? We don’t need a baby boom, but Germany did, and it’s getting its wish this month as the stork works overtime; someone should give that bird a raise. Score! indeed. Research shows when a woman is happy she’s more likely to conceive, so the Krauts win a few matches and a few German broads get knocked up. Everybody wins. But let’s not discount German beer’s role in all this. It goes very well with spectating and baby making. I just checked, and according to dictionary.com spectating is a word. Take that, Microsoft word 2003!
Draft dodging politicians take heed of Prince Harry’s frontline desire. He doesn’t even have to go to war, he volunteered. That’s a word missing from many vocabularies nowadays. This proves Harry has a better head on his shoulders than his brother. I only have one question: do British infantrymen have to sport buzz cuts as Americans do? The pictures show Harry’s wild red hair, making him, as many feared, a very visible target.
Whole Foods bought competitor Wild Oats. The Austin based company is the largest US health food store and has a habit of gobbling up its rivals, but keeping their names. Georgia grown Harry’s Farmers Market maintains its original identity through Whole Foods’s friendly takeover. Before you know it the good food grocer will be as big as Safeway. And with fresh selection, breads baked in-house, no Hot Pockets, and energy conservation commitment, that’s a good thing.
Cheap meals, playgrounds, diaper changes, the exclusive live ant topping after the second scoop topples from atop an ice cream cone, child admission prices, and now they don’t need an ID for international travel? Kids get all the breaks. Homeland Security no longer requires passports for US whippersnappers under 15. Foreign kids traveling to the US without documents can just float on in on rafts or jump fences.
