Good morning D, still heart broken over what happened to our service men!!! I have now words for it except, that did not have to happen and some people are just shrugging it off!!!!
We had a heavy downpour at 9:30 last night, lasted about 15 minutes, 04" of rain!!!
Taking some homemade peanut butter ice cream(and a Gala apple) to a friend of ours who had surgery.
I hope the D has a great day and Prayers for the D!!!!
If any of the D ever needs some type of plant that they want to grow on a fence line or trellis, find you some Hummingbird vines, it's amazing how fast it grows and spreads!!! Hummingbirds sure do like it. We have been watching it and it grows close to a foot a day! Has red blooms on it!!!
Masks are back in full force here and it's only a matter of time before the mandates kick back in. I actually saw a lady wearing a mask in her own yard. What's with these people wearing masks while walking outside alone ? Or alone in their car? Blows my mind. I'm not wearing one unless I have to. Unfortunately, all medical facilities require them and I take the folks to multiple doctors.
Just watched The Salzburg Connection, filmed in 1972. Loved those old cars and Germanic European atmosphere. Various scenes were subtitled, yet seemingly authentic. Even though one might consider the flick low-grade as far as plot, scenery was gorgeous.
Fair point.I wear a gaiter while mowing during ragweed season. Maybe it was allergies
Went to the dermatologist today. I thought I was going to look like this guy after he got done spraying me.

Still looking for an OLED TV. This one is a bit out of my budget. 100k. Can't be that good.

I was at a CES show in the mid, late 80s (Consumer Electronics Show). One of the TV/electronics companies (Motorola I think) had a huge exhibit space and in it was a wall about 10 ft high and 15 ft long made up of 19 inch flat screens. Believe it was the first time they were displayed publicly...no one had ever seen a 'flat screen'. Asked one of the reps if a 19 inch was on the market what would it go for...said 25K.
No secret at all, it comes back every year. I put out a small trellis it's about 6' tall and 2' wide, in two weeks it is almost solid covered and blooming.Planted 2 of those two years ago myself. They haven't bloomed and only one has grown more than 15". What's your secret?

Look up Outside red Cypress vine. Mine was given to me. I don't know how to post pictures or I wouldIs it called a "hummingbird vine" or something else? The only one we could find had red-orange flowers... If it is and you see one like yours somewhere for sale, please let me know. I was looking for one with red flowers for my wife.
Guys, I'm going to post a version of this on the political thread, but I consider you friends, so it goes a little stronger in here. Things could get bad with all these refugees from Afghan and for our troops over there. I'm no one special, but I have heard things from a trusted source. We already knew it, but the whole Afghan withdrawal has been a set up situation. If you are not prepared, now for things to get worse, do so.
Will do. Thank you!Look up Outside red Cypress vine. Mine was given to me. I don't know how to post pictures or I would
As an old guy, I was concerned about our direction as a nation, but I never dreamed we would be where we are in my lifetime.Now that they're forcing the shots on the military, it's time for our enemies from within and without to bring the fight here. They could cripple our economy and resources in a day, maybe 2. Next 10 days could be telling

When I'm wrong I acknowledge it and own it. Saw just now where Ida has hit Cat 5 strength. Also saw this in an article which surprised me....Another example of the media talking up a weather event that's not that bad?

New Orleans evacuates as Hurricane Ida expected to strengthen to Category 4 with 140 mph winds
Ida could make landfall as a category 4 hurricane on Sunday when it hits the Gulf Coast with maximum winds of 140 mph, according to the latest forecast from the National Hurricane Center.www.foxnews.com
Speak for yourself. 😉Guys and gals who were attractive and in their prime at the time but upon whom, like all of us, time has taken its toll.
A CAT 5 is nothing to play with. I worked Andrew in 1992 and Dade County around Homestead was like 20 years in Afghanistan.When I'm wrong I acknowledge it and own it. Saw just now where Ida has hit Cat 5 strength. Also saw this in an article which surprised me....
'Only four Category 5 hurricanes have made landfall in the United States: Michael in 2018, Andrew in 1992, Camille in 1969 and the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935.'
Not really. As I said, I'm John Nobody. Anyone thinking it through could surmise what I have said. I have kin who has been there several times, and I ran into him the other day and he still knows people who are/were there. He just confirmed what we were all thinking. He was also complaining about wokeness invading the military.Any more details you can share?
I played golf twice with Larry Bird. He is a "bird" and the most down to earth man you could ever meet. He was rich and I was poor and he did not see any difference. I have loved him after the first meeting. They don't come much better.This is a seriously Rare Bird.... Just watch "it's" moves and bask in "it's" grace...
