  1. I know my place in that world. I am a donor.   Now, if ya wanna bowl a few games for money, that is different.

     

    just because it is Fall, doesn't mean it has to feel like it... but, it does. Humidity is gone.  50`AM and 90` high. Thoughts of chainsaw .  Just trying to enjoy the comfortable weather.

    I was a prep, but finished as a total stoner.

     

    we were saving our lunch money to buy a lid.  $10 back then. HS was interesting.

    Not fun... interesting. If I got started on stories, how long ya got?

     

    we had a "smoking area" too.  Not condoned. We sat at a table with plenty of "no man's land" between us and them. In plain sight of the office. Offered protection from the jocks. Did I mention HS was not fun?

  3. We have 8 ... no 10 cats, now.

    Most are rescue/feral/strays. We have some "regular" ferals that come by. Spend a day or two and move one, until the next time.  The last 2 we got were bottle babies. They're rippin' and tearin' the house up now. Their eyes were just open when we ended up with them.

    Half of our cats are getting old/er One is 18, a 12yr old and a couple of 11's.

     

    we did have some "pet" skunks. They lived here. Ate with the cats. Played with them, too. They would [try to] come in the house. The cats would come in... and the skunk would jump in line. Worked twice....

    I relocated them when we had an uptick in rabies locally.

  4. sure glad I don't worry about water ... except have or not

     

    our water has some minerals. Nothing like sulfur. 

     

    I don't conserve too much. Been told to "save" water for 50 years. Ya know who isn't saving our water?    The govt. They keep allowing more houses and giving them the water I "saved".  We are way beyond overdraft... A long time ago. The indigenous population showed how many can survive w/o supplementing water.  

    rant over

     

    I see CocaCola has introduced a new energy drink.  Kinda come full circle. Struck me as a little ironic.  Didn't Coke start out as an elixir to help with "the blues"?

    it’s getting so bad that i’ve put off the purchase of my next guitar.  I just wonder if it’s wise to get another one when i don’t know how bad this hand is going to get. But then, maybe a new guitar will help it feel better?

     

    push it, Steve

    Do as much as you can.  The exercise is more important than the quality of the results. As long as you enjoy it. eff anybody else's opinion. It's art!!! Exactly the way I wrote/composed it.

    We ain't gittin any younger.  I went to hellinahandbasket when I was laid up so long that I couldn't load my boat on the car. The rowing was very good for my back. I'm afraid atrophy has pretty well shot many stupid ideas of doing it now.  Looking for a truck. 4 or 6 banger is fine. I'm only planning on using it on weekend -- to pull stumps.  Nah nah... for woodcutting and trips to the lake.  Only has to run good for 10 miles at a time. lol

     

    pineapple upside down cake..... yummmmmm

    now I want one.

    Have you ever had a Mandarin Orange Cake? Don't be fooled by the mention of citrus. Not a hint other than the name. You do use them in it. W/o zest, they are just sweet and juicy... no twang. Like caramel cake of some sort

  6. I like central American beans. Not sure where these Mex came from. Easy enough to find out. Talk to the roaster. Doesn't have the Combate type flavor. This is almost peaberry.

     

    It was in the 50's. I have the doors and windows open to warm the place. Room temp coffee is cold. Heineken cold

    What color Sarong?

     

     I accidentally color coordinated with the bride and groom. the  sarong is the one in the pic I posted awhile back. Blue, burgundy and gray stripe. White shirt. Their outfits were basically blue and white.

    had a nice time. Sat next to the pastor at the reception dinner. Nice guy.  Saw folks I haven't seen for 10 years. Thus is the life of a recluse.

    And I got to drive 50 miles. Last time I went that far, I dinna stop for 2000 miles.

  8. Thinking about the wedding, petting my cat ... pulling matted fur from his "armpits"

    ...was reminded of a joke about telling the bride by the fact that the hair in her pits was braided.

     

    back is torched. It's the sarong, like it or don't. Paired it with a guayabera shirt. That's as good as it gets, today.
