where should the Pharaoh go?

Ron Olson — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 14:08:37 +0000

the Pharaoh in front of the Pyramid must be moved to get ready for Bass pro shop coming to memphis. Where should we move it? We got tons of calls about the zoo. great one. What about in front of the Bellevue crosses? or on top of the old bridge with lazer light eyes that shine all over the city. Or in Kevin Kanes backyard( he is the the guy that works for the city and owns most of beale street) or how about the liberty bowl for no apparent reason. How about the zoo with the rides from libertyland? How about Adventure river?

whatever ///it’s a good thing. Go bass pro shop…rock the house

Mississippi voted fattest state in america

Ron Olson — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 11:46:49 +0000

what’s wrong with that. There is more to love. It takes a massive amount of rethinking in the south to get everyone skinny minny. It’s not gonna happen overnight. This part of the country is all about eating. Eating a lot of food for very little out of the purse. Fast food. cheap food. that’s what it is all about. Exercise is secondary. It should be taught in school from 1st grade on. What to eat. what’s a calorie. what part does exercise play in my good health. I’m like everybody else. But My eating habits have changed over the last ten years or so. I’ve said goodbye to ho ho’s and fried chicken. Its veggies and fish. Lots of fruit….killer bread on occasion. fried pies and ice cream…not today. here’s a tip check with your doctor about your health. Get a physical. Teach by example.

I know it’s hard to walk away from those krinkle kut fries. But hey you are walking that’s a start.

the power of a vacation

Ron Olson — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 14:49:25 +0000

Man alive everybody is on vacation now. I got one next week and I really am excitied about doing nothing. Sleeping late for a change. Resting up. Hanging with my wife for an extended time. Cooking together. fishing. catching up on some movies. Sometimes just thinking about a vacation or the planning of it is all you really need. A lot of times the vacation doesn’t live up to it’s expectations.

Later this summer I am going on vacation with my brother back to pennsylvania to visit our old stomping grounds. This is where my dad is from. It’s Galeton pennsylvania. A little town in north central pennsylvania that my brother and I would travel to every summer for an eternity. There was something so simple and cool about this town. It really hasn’t changed much. Lots of deer. hunting . fishing. streams. nature. and real down to earth people that seemed to glad to see ya. My wife and mom think going back there is kinda crazy. Like I’m gonna be disappointed. No way. It’s one of those places that I think about all the time. Do you have a spot like that in your life? This is going to be a real adventure for me and best of all I get to go with my older brother bob. I don’t get to see him that much so hanging with him will mean a lot to me big time. Vacations are all about memories. I like to mark a good vacation with a movie. something that is out at the theatre so twenty years from now when I see it on TNT I’ll remember that trip to that little town in pennsylvania.

dreams: what they mean: new list

Ron Olson — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 14:15:13 +0000

what have you been dreaming about lately?oprah? spam? match.com?

here we go: if you have been dreaming about oprah..it shows you are ready to make a bold move…since she’s the symbol of generosity and inspiration

Spam: a dream about spam email shows you’re struggling with boundaries.(really)

match.com dreams : dreaming about internet dating shows you’re ready to start expanding your circle…

ebay dreams: dreaming about buying or selling stuff on ebay shows you’re seeing unlimited opportunities out in the world

Lady GaGa: these dreams mean that you are ready to get your funk on. You need a job in midtown or have a need to be radical but you are trapped in a conservative world that won’t let you run.

Carrot top: you want to do steroids and comedy.

Willie herenton dreams: get off the ambien

enjoy your dreams and write them down. I’ll call ya later.

Think Pink: the fight continues

Ron Olson — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 13:52:06 +0000

Southaven is doing it right. They now offer pink garbage cans to replace the old ugly one. It’s all about the fight against cancer. Like race for the cure. If they sell 100,000 they can raise $500,000 for the fight against cancer. I want one for my house…..I love thinking like this….Greg davis mayor…smart guy..good leader….go desoto county…teach by example

Bored life? new list. see if you agree

Ron Olson — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 13:04:54 +0000

top ten things that bore women

1) routine 2) a lack of a social life 3)their job 4) not enough vacation time 5)housework 6) spending time on their appearance 7) depressing news eating the same things all the time 9) the house 10) responsibilities 11) morning radio shows that talk too much

what a list. did you see a couple of things that ring a bell. routine number one. its hard to get out of that routine. Sleep and exercise seem to help everything.

take time to bust up the routine….it bothers everybody. Try some new food. Get a new haircut. be daring. Get some clothes someplace other than the gap or old navy.

that’s what we try to do everyday….bust up routine a little and make ya laugh and give you some good driving tunes on the way to work. But still have a routine…only one that is not boring.

“I want my life back”…says BP head guy

Ron Olson — Thu, 03 Jun 2010 12:08:01 +0000

What a major dope. This was the quote from the BP president. He wants this oil thing to get over so he can get back to his chushy job and feed the polo ponies..Yeah people are dead and the US economy is about to take a hit that will make Katrina look like nothing. The oil sludge is coming ashore today in the pensacola area. The ripple effect of this will last for years…maybe we’ll pray for a hurricane to help disperse this mess all over the south. Hey rocky mountains we’re coming for vacation. Hey california we’ll see ya soon. Hey backyard you are looking good. BP and the people in charge please make an effort worth talking about……do something this is 2010, love ron
