AFair--On Saturday we made the journey to the Fairgrounds for the DuPage County Fair. As far as fairs go I must say this is one of the more impressive events I've been to. We now have successfully introduced the kids to elephant ears. They are still too small for the rides, but the goats, pigs, cows, and baby chicks were enough to them entertained all day. What amazes me the most is how agricultural one of the most affluent counties in the state is. I just don't know where they shipped in all these animals from when every day in the paper you read how the last specs of farmland have been developed into housing. While we didn't hang around for the rodeo or the demolition derby, I cn't remember a more fun fair experience.

AnchorMan--Following on the bootstraps of the last time that Tricia and I actually left the house by ourseles, we went to another 1970's tribute movie. This time it wasn't Starsky and Hutch, oh no... it was Will "We're Goin' Streakin'" Ferrell in Anchorman. The movie really didn't start off that funny, but by the end of the short hour and a half I got into the shtick and was rolling on the floor.

I'm just the least critical, easiest to please moviegoer ever. Give me some fart jokes and some polyester suits and you've got my 8 bucks wholeheartedly.
