I don't know what railroad that is but I like the "I" image on the front which is a cross cut of a piece of rail.
 
How did it go? I shot a 76 on Monday, an 81 yesterday, and smooth 89 today. Golf sucks! It's a stupid game and I don't think it's going to last very long. Passing fad if you ask me.

That was me and the guy's channel is Project Farm. Here's a link

It didn't turn out too badly. Haven't played but two rounds before today, so an 81 was ok, I guess. We'll see how the back recovers, overnight.
 
My wife called the phone company to schedule a service call for asap. Utility couldn't make it out until today. So we scheduled accordingly and I moved another appt to yesterday.

They showed up yesterday wanting to know where we were. .... ..... yeah

So we rescheduled again and they told us today from 10-12pm. Never showed up.

Show of hands for those who aren't surprised by this....?

You still have a land-line phone????

I've got a decent strip of Bermuda grass 60 years old I keep active and short. Tortoise/toy wolf habitat.

I've eaten BBQ cougar and wasn't impressed. Snake was better but neither can touch grain eating bird gizzards or mast foraging squirrel brain. Like artichoke hearts. When done right, downright heavenly

Curious, you related to the Revolutionary War veteran Joseph E. Hedges husband of Sarah Biggs m. 1770.

I'd eat it.

18th & Hill Streets in '69 would be "Hey Honkey, you want a big bunch of me.

Who need Far Side this is the "D". Transporting cats in burlap bags is the most humane way possible, hiding gives them false security calming them. Having to be tossed out if you've anything to do.

Ya just "ain't" right in some areas...

Hope it turns out well. I've been playing a lot of golf lately and now I don't hurt after I'm through. Sitting here right now I can't feel that I played today. Maybe my body has just given up and said, "do what you want, we don't care anymore".
It was a gif. Don't know why it isn't giffing.
 
Here is an excerpt from Thomas Sowell's book.

Pretty interesting stuff. I used to read Sowell in the the USA Today paper all the time back in the early 80's. Why couldn't we have had him as President a long time ago? High schools elect their class president based upon popularity. Shouldn't we have a higher standard for President?

I think we should enslave Thomas Sowell and force him to be Commander In Chief! Can we do that? Would probably go something like this...

Me: Mr. Sowell, you are hereby enslaved to be President of the United States!
TS: Ok, thank you, my first order is that you are now in charge and I'm going back to my book tour that pays 100 times as much.
Me: I see what you did there Tom. Well played sir. Well played indeed.

Truth is never popular. Wisdom is feared. Corrupt politicians for a generally corrupt country.

We can't have as President what the majority don't aspire to as citizens.

My caveats are the truth and wisdom remarks above and the corrupt remark is negatively enhanced by the media to where no normal person unlearned to the deception can make decisions based on the true situation(s) at nearly any time. Functional illiteracy in that area of our governed leadership must be changed or it's hopeless.

Good/decent or normally decent people are captivated by their lives and have to be made or forced to believe the corruption is as bad as it is and has been.

I meet generally nice people that do not have a clue that what they believe is grounded in lies and deception. They cannot conceive or fathom they are wrong... nor could they be/ or would willingly admit they could and have been "tricked" that easily.

My wife said last week that she sees humanity going extinct in 50 years. I told her, well, at least both of us will be gone by then. FYI...she and I are POLAR OPPOSITES politically.
Mankind has not changed. Christianity and it's churches brought about family stability enabling humans to realize the blessings of creative innovation in the freer civilization. If one man invented a net, everyone got more fish then the unemployed used their increased freedom to create and enrich society. People could and would adapt as civilization progressed at a faster paste.

Truth is denied as often as not. The unknown is feared. Wisdom is what works. The people will chose Barabbas. This is not something we don't know. Complacent, caught with our pants down, again. It is the truth that solves the stupidity. Decisions based on falsehoods have always had major ramifications as they fail.

Same ole problems of people and time. Haven't figured out how long it takes to grow a grove of trees with 250 year old tree community components. It's not because their mean, as much as wrong, then butthurt because they can't make it up. The word dumb comes to mind. A community without grandfathers has no wisdom because they don't know what happened.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 60°F and cloudy. Today's high looking like 74°F. Nice. Possibility for much more rain beginning this weekend.

It appears TyTy Washington plans on playing for our Cats. Good news.

The Go Go's have been inducted into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Kathy Valentine, band member who lives here in Austin, on TV discussing the honor now. She's also a student at St. Edward's University. Cool stuff.

Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Morning Legionnaires!

Coffee maker went belly up this morning just after making enough. God is good.
Have to go out and buy another today.

Wife saying "don't pay too much for it". Not going cheap, just does not turn out good when you do. Not reliable.

Weather still cool in the mornings and only going to be around 70° today for a high which is unusual for this area. Loving it. Tomorrow a little warmer but, perfect for all day fishing. MIL and BIL coming over on Saturday so, wife will fry up what was caught this past weekend and I will try to get more.

You guys be good today and be safe out there.
 
Bright sun and 39 in the Buckeye State heading to the mid-60s. Other than one day in the low 60s the long range forecast is all high 60s and mid/high 70s. Maybe Spring has Sprung and this cool to cold stuff is behind us.
Time to hit the garden next week?
My wife called the phone company to schedule a service call for asap. Utility couldn't make it out until today. So we scheduled accordingly and I moved another appt to yesterday.

They showed up yesterday wanting to know where we were. .... ..... yeah

So we rescheduled again and they told us today from 10-12pm. Never showed up.

We had a Windstream tech come by last Friday. Unlike you, we had a good experience (a rarity I know). Great guy, called before he came (as he was supposed to) and arrived right on time. Did his work (upgrade to higher internet speed...that we really didn't need) and then spent about 30 minutes talking to me and the Mrs about life and politics. Of course maybe it helps when about everyone around knows who we are.
You still have a land-line phone????

I do with one of these.

Living in a 1850s house the Mrs is into 'country' decor (Amish pictures on the wall, collection of late 1800s/early 1900s canning jars, etc). So she decided she wanted an old rotary dial phone in the living room. We've got an old wall/crank model, but of course it doesn't work and there's no way to update it to work. So she looked everywhere for a rotary that worked...couldn't find one....her daughter found one out in Seattle, and shipped it to us. Took it apart...did a little rewiring, etc...and it works fine. But when the phone rings...the ringer/bell in it is loud. Too loud.
So yeah, land line....just because. So don't use cell much at home unless someone calls me (or her) on them....and bundle package with phone company....phone/internet.
