Kenny Chumsky. Kenny Chumsky. I just can't stop saying Kenny Chumsky. Here's why:

A 40-year-old man was arrested early Thursday on a charge of aggravated domestic battery after police allege he shocked his mother.

According to a Port St. Lucie Police Department report, Kenny Chumsky was "using a Taser on guests" about 2 a.m. Thursday at his mother's home in the 1000 block of Southwest Liberty Avenue.

"Kenny and everyone at this location were under the influence of alcohol," the report stated.

You don't say!

Doesn't everyone use a taser to shock guests?

Julie says to me this morning, "The grass has gotten too high in our front yard. It looks awful. You really have to mow it."

I hate mowing grass, and I *really* hate to mow it in Febru-freaking-ary. And I'm *not* mowing the backyard! I told her I was going to give our house a mullet: short in the front, long in back.

Rod, can't you hire a nice neighborhood kid to do the job for a few dollars? I bet you're counting down the days until you can train your oldest to do the yardwork.

What, Mr. Crunchy has a *lawn*? In Texas? Requiring who knows how many gallons of artificial irrigation (not counting homeowners' tears) to keep it growing during the dry months? Just another example of the Sonicsized gulf between planning to be crunchy and actually living it. Why, if Rod were serious about this whole "crunchy" thing, there'd be cactii and tumbleweeds in that there front yard of his, and the neighbors would *like* it.

:)

I keep telling the kids we're going to adopt the Sustainable Urban Landscape model of yard design, which for a state like Texas means that the end result will closely resemble one of Georgia O'Keeffe's eerie desert paintings. They think I'm kidding.
