Blech! Monday again! I hope the memories of a great weekend get you through today. There's just not enough days in the weekend...wouldn't you agree? Thanks to everyone who participated in both the Thunder Ride and The Coulee Region Race on Saturday. We raised a lot of money for two very important causes and I am, as always, blown away by the generosity of my Coulee Region neighbors. You rock!=

Hey, check this out! A Wisconsin man has a whopper of a fish story to tell about the one that didn't get away. The 41-and-a-half-pound brown trout caught July 16th by Roger Hellen of Franksville has been certified as the state record for the species by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The trout was caught in Lake Michigan off Racine. The 39-year-old says it took half an hour to reel it in. He says when he got it in the boat he was more exhilarated than exhausted. It's already earned Hellen the ten-thousand-dollar grand prize in the Salmon-A-Rama fishing contest. Hellen's record-setting fish surpasses the 36-pound, eight-point-nine-ounce, brown trout caught in Lake Michigan in 2004.

Have you ever visited the website College Humor? I don't check in very often--cuz college was a long, long time ago for me--but when I do visit the site I ALWAYS find something that makes me laugh out loud. Today was no different. Check out this video made by the Harvard Sailing Team called 'Boys Will Be Girls'. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. These guys are spot on!

Speaking of being old. What's up with teenagers these days anyway? Now I realize that when a child becomes a teenager, there is nothing more important than fitting in. Peer pressure rules and we all have misdemeanors on our records and piercings on various body parts to prove it. But nowadays, 'cool' is taking on all kinds of unidentifiable forms. Today's youth are finding newer and more efficient ways to challenge our tolerance of their ways. Here are 7 of today’s most bizarre teen trends that will make you scoff, shake your head, embrace your adulthood and never look back: Top 7 Bizarre Teen Trends . Seriously...what is UP with those stupid Silly Bandz??
