Edwin's City of Lakes Blog

I have uploaded a rough draft of my Grandpa Gary's obituary. You can read it here.

So I have been trying to redouble my efforts on Wikipedia lately and some "fun-loving" persons unknown to me are upset because I had their page placed on Votes for Deletion. They are a little bent out of shape and have resorted to name calling, which you can see here. Well that's life, what are you gonna do?

Aaron R Murphy is one cool cat. He stayed with me for a brief time when I was watching my aunt's while she was on vacation. We had a blast. We also rented a paddleboat on Lake Como in St Paul and laughed and enjoyed the Minneapolis Police Department Band's concert that was going on concurrently. He is SOOO damn funny he can make your eyes well up with tears. Gotta love him.

I am sick of self-righteous people and their sermonizing about The Coca-Cola Company when they don't know anything about the alleged situation in Colombia. Visit www.CokeFacts.org for some clarification.

I neglected to mention that an opinion I wrote was recently published by the Minneapolis Oberver. They have comprehensive City Hall and local politics coverage that the folks at the Star Tribune feel is important the crap suburban news. You can read my article at this link.

My grandpa Gary died early this morning in Redlands, California. I have been charged by my Grandma Tutu to write an obituary. As soon as it's done, I will post it here.

I am back in Minneapolis...It was a very hard and awful trip in terms of my grandpa. More later.

Just found out last night that my maternal biological grandfather, Gary, is dying. He developed Alzheimer's disease a few years ago and it has rapidly progressed. My mom and I are flying to LAX tomorrow morning and will be in California until Tuesday. This is really hard on my mom...

Sandra D., aka the O'Conninator, is leaving the US Supreme Court. Great. She was only crazy with her decisions 65% of the time, the guy Bush appoints will probably be crazy 100% of the time (Clarance Thomas!). Damn.
