Puppy Bowl is Amazing, South Windsor Town Council, Bulky Waste Collection

Good morning, South Windsor! Today is Monday, Feb. 4, 2013; there are 330 days left in the year.

Hey friends, here’s a piece of advice from your favorite (and only) local editor: never, ever, under any circumstances, watch The Puppy Bowl with two children, particularly after you’ve said that the family will get a dog soon.

You see, we already have a full house, what with the two kids, two cats, a wife/mom and an incredibly good looking, smart, funny husband/dad.

The kids (and the local editor) want every breed of puppy. It’s up to my wife to be the bad guy here. I just go nuts when I see one of the pups get flagged for excessive cuteness.

So my poor wife has to be the one to say no. Poor thing.

Here’s your Daily 5:

1. The South Windsor Town Council meets tonight at 7 p.m.

2. “A Lincoln Portrait -The Man who Painted Lincoln" (George Henry Story) will be on exhibit at Wood Memorial Library and Museum in South Windsor through Feb. 28.
