Like so many areas of the country, we have had a long, tough winter with more than enough snow and cold. We realize we live in Minnesota, but at times we think we have been transplanted to Siberia.

Summer is Coming....Maybe!
Yup.....a sure sign of Summer. We can see the deer again here at Coyote Ridge.
Like so many areas of the country, we have had a long, tough winter with more than enough snow and cold. We realize we live in Minnesota, but at times we think we have been transplanted to Siberia.

I Think This Is Very Good Information
As you know, I am always on the lookout for tips and tricks to help my readers enjoy a better life.
This post will fit right in regarding my mission in life....making a better life for anyone who reads this blog.
Subject: FW: Important - Women's Health Issue
Just the right prescription!
*Important - Women's Health Issue: *
* Do you have feelings of inadequacy?
* Do you suffer from shyness?
* Do you sometimes wish you were more assertive?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, ask your doctor or
pharmacist about Margaritas.
Margaritas are the safe, natural way to feel better and more confident
about yourself and your actions. Margaritas can help ease you out of
your shyness and let you tell the world that you're ready and willing to
do just about anything. You will notice the benefits of Margaritas
almost immediately and with a regimen of regular doses you can overcome
any obstacles that prevent you from living the life you want to live.
Shyness and awkwardness will be a thing of the past and you will
discover many talents you never knew you had. Stop hiding and start
living, with Margaritas.
Margaritas may not be right for everyone Women who are pregnant or
nursing should not use Margaritas. However, women who wouldn't mind
nursing or becoming pregnant are encouraged to try it.
Side effects may include:
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Incarceration
- Erotic lustfulness
- Loss of motor control
- Loss of clothing
- Loss of money
- Loss of virginity
- Table dancing

- And a desire to sing Karaoke *
WARNINGS: *
* The consumption of Margaritas may make you think you are
whispering when you are not.

over and over again that you love them.
* The consumption of Margaritas may cause you to think you can sing.
* The consumption of Margaritas may make you think you can logically
converse with members of the opposite sex without spitting.
Please share this with other women who may need Margaritas.
Glad I could help!

Only In Minne-Sota
Every state in this fine country we call home seems to have it's own set of un-written rules or quirks, if you will.
Here in Minnesota, we have our own very specific set of rules that must be adhered to.
YOU ARE FROM RURAL MINNESOTA IF....
You know it is traditional for the bride and groom to go bar hopping between the ceremony and the reception.
You know how to polka, but never tried it sober.
You know what knee-high by the Fourth of July means.
You were delighted to get a miniature snow shovel for your 3rd birthday.
You can recognize someone from Iowa by their driving.
You buy Christmas presents at Fleet Farm.
You spent more on beer than you did on food at your wedding.
You hear someone use the word 'oof-dah' and you do not immediately break into uncontrollable laughter.
You think fast food is hitting a deer at 65 mph.
You or someone you know was a 'Dairy Princess' at a county fair
You let your older siblings talk you into putting your tongue on a steel post in the middle of winter.
You think Lutheran and Catholic are THE major religions.
Football, Deer Hunting & Opening Fishing schedules are checked before wedding dates are set.
Saturday you go to the local bowling alley.
There was at least one kid in your class who had to help milk cows in the morning.
You have driven your car on a lake.
You can make sense out of the word 'upnort' and 'battree. '
You always believed that vacation meant 'going up North.'
At every wedding you have been to you have had to dance the hokey poky and the chicken dance.
Your definition of a small town is one that only has one bar
The local gas station sells live bait.
At least twice a year, the kitchen doubles as a meat processing plant.
Your mom asks, 'Were you born in a barn?' and you know exactly what she means.
You think that the start of deer season is a national holiday.
Pop is not only what you call your dad, but is the ONLY name for soda.
You bettcha!

In the "Big Chill".
I made it out of town for this week's business trip early Tuesday morning. All the highways had been closed down until that morning because of drifting snow and near zero visibility.
Once I made it out onto the highway it was clear sailing all the way to Minneapolis,MN. Wednesday evening for the trip home, it was also un-eventful....just the way I like it.
I ran across this the other day and found a lot of truth in it....I don't know if that is good or bad!
A group of 40 year old buddies discuss where they should meet for dinner.
Finally it is agreed upon that they should meet at Gasthaus Gutenberger
restaurant because the waitress's there have low cut blouses and nice breasts.
10 years later, at 50 years of age, the group meets again and once again
they discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they
should meet at the Gasthaus Gutenberger because the food there is very good and
the wine selection is good also.
10 years later at 60 years of age, the group meets again and once again
they discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they should
meet at the Gasthaus Gutenberger because they can eat there in peace and
quiet and the restaurant is smoke free.
10 years later, at 70 years of age, the group meets again and once again
they discuss and discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon
that they should meet at the Gasthaus Gutenberger because the restaurant is
wheel chair accessible and they even have an elevator.
10 years later, at 80 years of age, the group meets again and once again
they discuss where they should meet. Finally it is agreed upon that they
should meet at the Gasthaus Gutenberger because they heard the waitress's there
have low cut blouses, nice breasts and they have never been there before.???

Here We Go Again...and Again....
Should I be tired of Winter already? It is only January and to be honest, Spring won't get here soon enough.
We are under a blizzard warning...again!
The good news is that we made it home without incident. Getting out through the drifts tomorrow morning will be a different story.

The New Year...Another New Diet
OK, we are into a new year and all you see on TV are ads for exercise equipment and diets.
This diet is a classic!
So much for Weight Watchers:
Yesterday I was buying 2 large bags of Purina dog chow at Walmart, for our
Dogs. I was about to check out when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.
What did she think, that I had an elephant?
Since I had little else to do, on impulse, I told her that no, I didn't
Have a dog, and that I was starting the Purina Diet again, although I
probably shouldn't because I ended up in the hospital last time. On the
bright side though, I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive
care ward with tubes coming out of every hole in my body and IVs in both
arms.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it
works is to load your pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two
every time you feel hungry and that the food is nutritionally complete so I
was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically
everyone in the line was enthralled with my story by now.)
Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food
had poisoned me.
I told her no; I had stopped in the middle of the parking lot to lick my ass
and a car hit me.
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack, he was
laughing so hard! WAL-MART won't let me shop there anymore.
I don't think any of us here at Coyote Ridge will be continuing this diet anytime soon....or visiting Walmart till our restrictions are lifted.
