I had to look at my notes last week from reading the papers from the month of May. With not wanting to go anywhere due to the subzero weather it meant getting caught up on many things. As usual I liked the funny columnist. The last of 5 was how everything is an art nowadays, how the Twin Cities can add 'Creative' to the list of top 10 traits. The others included 'Bit o history', about Pearson's Salted Nut Roll buying Bit o honey. Minnesota has a place in candy history, with mention of Minneapolis nougat. Then there was 'Paper or plastic', about a bag of bags, and a nickel tax on the grocery bags. Next was four dollars a gallon on gas, 'You get a card!' because you don't have enough cards. The fourth was about expansion at Mall of America.
There was a variety of publications, not just the Minneapolis paper. The notable articles started off with the star conductor of the Minnesota Orchestra threatening to quit if no deal was in place. There was a memorial for George Jones, the musician. Two popes call the Vatican home. A picture of
micro-apartments, many were the size of hotel rooms. There was the premier issue of the St. Paul Globe, and an article about the previous paper with the same name which ceased publication in 1905. It was about railroad baron James J. Hill and financier J.P. Morgan. Also an article about the sport of boxing in the city. The St. Paul Chamber Orchestra returns. Then there was the emerald ash borer and Asian carp. The gay marriage bill was signed into law. Apparently the Schmidt brewery sign will return. City Pages had a cover story about the 'Ag-gag war'. About those who expose the atrocities at factory farms. Advice columnist Carolyn Hax responded to a 20-something stuck in 'The friend zone' and this woman said she does comedy, like I do. There was 'Memphis blues'- due to lost flights since the merger of Delta and Northwest Airlines. There was also a lawsuit filed by former governor Jesse Ventura, over defamation in a book.
I watched two episodes of 'Big Bang Theory' tonight. The syndicated rerun was about Sheldon meddling in the relationship between Leonard and Dr. Stephanie. He shows up on their date at a movie theater. The prime time episode was penny getting a role on a TV show, but then her scene was cut. She proposes to Leonard, who doesn't respond. Sheldon keeps trying too hard to be funny.
