What more does a person need?

Happy hump day to you. There are a few colds starting to pop up around here at the station and I got a kick out of this. I thought you might enjoy it.

We are just days away from the Labour Day Classic in Regina and I can’t wait. I actually feel a little bit bad for Bomber fans making the trip this weekend. After last weeks performance or lack of it in Edmonton the Riders should be foaming at the mouth. Brad Bazin and myself will be heading to Taylor Field with our GX94 Countryside Motors Football Fanatic winners. Congrats to Livia Dahlin of Norquay our Rider fan and to Norm Davy of Swan River our Bomber fan. This will be a great time regardless of who wins even though we know it will be the Riders. Speaking of the Riders it is the final day to vote for Yorkton for Riderville at www.riderville.com. Good luck to all communities, we will find out the winner at the Labour Day game on Sunday.

Duck!!!

I thought I would share a hilarious video with you as well before we check out the new movies coming out this weekend. We will call this video just another day on the farm haha. Don’t try this at home.

Now for all of your movies hitting theatres today I am really looking forward to the movie Takers it looks great:
The Last Exorcism - When he arrives on the rural Louisiana farm of Louis Sweetzer, the Reverend Cotton Marcus expects to perform just another routine “exorcism” on a disturbed religious fanatic. An earnest fundamentalist, Sweetzer has contacted the charismatic preacher as a last resort, certain his teenage daughter Nell is possessed by a demon who must be exorcized before their terrifying ordeal ends in unimaginable tragedy.

Buckling under the weight of his conscience after years of parting desperate believers with their money, Cotton and his crew plan to film a confessionary documentary of this, his last exorcism. But upon arriving at the already blood drenched family farm, it is soon clear that nothing could have prepared him for the true evil he encounters there. Now, too late to turn back, Reverend Marcus’ own beliefs are shaken to the core when he and his crew must find a way to save Nell – and themselves – before it is too late.

Takers - “Takers,” directed by John Luessenhop, revolves around a notorious group of criminals (Idris Elba, Paul Walker, T.I., Chris Brown, Hayden Christensen and Michael Ealy) who continue to baffle police by pulling off perfectly executed bank robberies. They are in and out like clockwork, leaving no evidence behind and laying low in between heists. But when they attempt to pull off one last job with more money at stake than ever before, the crew may find their plans interrupted by a hardened detective (Matt Dillon) who is hell-bent on solving the case.

Later today I will be at Yorkton Hyundai telling you about all the great deals. It looks that it may be a beauty of a day today. Don’t forget to check out our GX94 Radio Internet Auction today at http://hodginsauctioneers.cusauctions.com/?auction=GXAUG10 this is a direct link. Items will start closing at 7pm Sask Time Monday. As well just a heads up to vote Yorkton for Riderville again at www.riderville.com. Have you ever wondered what the largest Yacht in the world looks like? The newest yacht in Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich’s fleet is the largest private yacht now in existence. It boasts a missile-detection system, a luxury spa, two helipads, a swimming pool, and a miniature submarine. It reportedly cost more than $400 million. To keep out the prying eyes of the paparazzi, the yacht has an electronic “shield” that can detect light sensors in digital cameras and make them unable to take photos. They were able to take one picture, shields must have been down at the time.

The Eclipse

Here is one of the coolest dogs ever.

Could you quiet down over there?

It looks as if we could get some nice weather for the next few days. I am looking forward to Supper in the field again as well. Don’t forget to register your farm family it will be coming really quickly. I know a few combines have been going south of Yorkton and more will start rolling any day now.
I would have to say that I have a new favorite song these days. It is The Band Perry – If I die young. Just take the time to listen to the words, I think we all have had someone go way too soon or young. Here is the video I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Keeping with the Crazy theme of yesterday’s video this guy is nuts doing this in his house.

I am going to start something new here, I am going to try and do a picture and video of the day. As for the first one it speaks for itself, five out of six children like sack races…

Which one would you be? Haha I got a kick out of that one. As for the video I can’t believe what some people do for fun. Here is a guy that pushes the limit on a dirt bike rock climbing, really impressive actually but still crazy.

With it being Tuesday that means new album release day. Here is what is new and out today:
Little Big Town - The Reason Why
Marty Stuart - Ghost Train
Ricky Skaggs -  Mosaic

Don’t forget to vote for your song to wake up the astronauts at https://songcontest.nasa.gov.

What a great weekend. We had a birthday party for my son on Sunday and had a great day for it. Man did it get hot later in the day. We had a blast in the pool, BBQ a great steak dinner and had a great visit with family. Hopefully you had a nice weekend as well. Maybe you checked out one of the movies. Here is what happened at the box office this weekend.

Weekend Box Office
August 20, 2010 – August 22, 2010

First off I want to wish a huge Happy Birthday to my son Dylan. I can’t believe he is 2 already, I really don’t know where the time is going. Here is a picture of him a couple of months ago with a toy that Grandma and Grandpa Ismond gave him. He loves his puppies.

We will be spending the weekend outdoors with the nice weather. hopefully you enjoy your weekend as well.

This weekend looks promising weather wise which could put a dent in the box office sales but we will take summer while we get it. A couple of decent movies come out this weekend.

Vampires Suck - “Vampires Suck” is a comedy about contemporary teen angst and romance movies. Becca, an anxious, non-vampire teen, is torn between two boys. Before she can choose, Becca must get around her controlling father, who embarrasses Becca by treating her like a child. Meanwhile, Becca’s friends contend with their own romantic issues – all of which collide at the prom.

Lottery Ticket – Kevin Carson (Bow Wow), a young man living in the projects, wins $370 million in a nationwide lottery. When his opportunistic neighbors discover he has the winning ticket in his possession, Kevin must survive their greedy and sometimes even threatening actions over a three-day holiday weekend before he can claim his prize.

Nanny McPhee Returns – In “Nanny McPhee Returns,” Oscar®-winning actress and screenwriter Emma Thompson returns to the role of the magical nanny who appears when she’s needed the most and wanted the least in the next chapter of the hilarious and heartwarming fable that has enchanted children around the world.

In the latest installment, Nanny McPhee appears at the door of a harried young mother, Mrs. Isabel Green (Maggie Gyllenhaal), who is trying to run the family farm while her husband is away at war. But once she’s arrived, Nanny McPhee discovers that Mrs. Green’s children are fighting a war of their own against two spoiled city cousins who have just moved in and refuse to leave.

Relying on everything from a flying motorcycle and a statue that comes to life to a tree-climbing piglet and a baby elephant who turns up in the oddest places, Nanny McPhee uses her magic to teach her mischievous charges five new lessons.

Piranha 3D – From director Alexandre Aja (”The Hills Have Eyes”) comes the new action thriller “Piranha.” Every year the population of sleepy Lake Victoria explodes from 5,000 to 50,000 for Spring Break; a riot of sun and drunken fun. But this year, there’s something more to worry about than hangovers and complaints from local old timers; A new type of terror is about to be cut loose on Lake Victoria. After a sudden underwater tremor sets free scores of the prehistoric man-eating fish, an unlikely group of strangers must band together to stop themselves from becoming fish food for the area’s new razor-toothed residents.

The Switch – Jennifer Aniston stars alongside Jason Bateman in this offbeat comedy as Kassie, a smart, fun-loving single woman who, despite her neurotic best friend Wally’s (Bateman) objections, decides it’s time to have a baby?even if it means doing it by herself… with a little help from a charming sperm donor (Patrick Wilson). But, unbeknownst to her, Kassie’s plans go awry because of a last-minute switch that isn’t discovered until seven years later when Wally finally gets acquainted with Kassie’s cute–though slightly neurotic–son.
