I'm hoping it was intentional wordplay.
Hold On To Your Cher's boys and girls
Damn, I don't have one! :(
Out @ $1.01
Bought some NAKD on the dip for a bounce.
We also had escaped guinea hens
from a nearby farm and none of the surrounding land owners wanted
them or anything else hunted, so that was fun too. I worked on that
farm as a teen and they were a pain in the ass anytime we passed close
by to the branches they were roosting on as they put up quite a racket.
Apparently they made good guard 'dogs'.
In OVID 4.06
Stalking OVID & RNWK
Neat thing is we had woods and fields full of pheasants. :)
Classic, my dad was a pheasant hunter too,
I'd try to rehabilitate those that I'd winged,
my dad hated that.
It was cool watching the Indians, the only ones allowed to harvest,
pulled into the acres lining the Indian river between Burt and Mullet
lake bend long stalks of wild rice with a stick over their canoe and wack
them to get the seeds into the bottom of the boat, no harvesting.
Kroger's here have a pretty good variety of wild rices,
many blends which I don't mind, as wild rice is 'strong' and is traditionaly meant for game.
Broccoli works as well,
turns melty.
It was prolific in N. Michigan, been served it since I was a tick,
Broil and Melt some gruyere over the top, ala french onion soup, and some garlic bread and I'll wash your car!
Yum, that's me!

Today's selection -- from Gods of the Upper Air by Charles King. In 1936, Zora Neale Hurston was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship following the success of her book on folklore, Mules and Men. With this money she went to Haiti. While she was there she contributed significantly to the field of cultural anthropology and laid the foundation for her seminal work Their Eyes Were Watching God. She also met a zombie:
"Hurston had read The Magic Island in preparation for her journey, but she was already well acquainted with 'hoodoo' or 'voodoo,' as she called it in her own writings, the popular religion of certain black communities in the South. During her time in New Orleans, she had been initiated into secret rites by several expert practitioners. ... Now in Haiti, Hurston fell in easily with priests whom she met casually through local friends and colleagues. In Arachaie, her connection with Dieu Donnez provided ready passage into this veiled society. She met some of the country's foremost houngans and mambos and watched as late-night ceremonies summoned an entire pantheon of gods -- a conclave of Jesus and the saints, standing alongside unfamiliar deities such as Damballah Ouedo and Erzulie Freida. She saw people write and cry as they were mounted by a loa [spirit]. She felt the urgency of grasping at another plane of reality -- seeing wickedness and purity, the most venal things and the most exalted, all braided together, all making sense, no more bizarre or unreal, or less ecstatic, than a Baptist prayer meeting in Eatonville [where she grew up]. ...
"In Manhattan, there were only two boxes, the living and the dead. But haitians had added a third, a way of being neither one nor the other, or perhaps both at the same time. ... Haitians knew as zonbi, or ... zombie [a] special type of creature [that] haunted the Haitian landscape ... 'a soulless human corpse, still dead, but taken from the grave and endowed by sorcery with a mechanical semblance of life.' ... In Haiti, talk of zombies 'seeps over the country like a ground current of cold air,' Hurston recalled. She encountered zombie legends nearly everywhere she went, from Port-au-Prince to Arcahaie and beyond. People would talk of zombies the way one might mention the weather or an upcoming wedding, if perhaps in a quieter tone. Everyone Hurston knew had met one, or knew someone who had met one. But for all that was talk. Nothing could quite prepare her for coming face-to-face with such a creature. ...
"At one point during her stay, Hurston visited a Haitian hospital. In the yard near the fence, she found a woman who had just been served dinner. Huddled in the defensive position, the woman had barely touched her food. When she saw Hurston approach, she pulled a branch from a nearby shrub and began to sweep the ground. ... Her name, Hurston learned, was Felicia Felix-Mentor. ... The stunning thing about this woman was that medical records showed that she had died in 1907. Hurston snapped several photographs of Felix-Mentor, at least one of which was later published. It remains the first known depiction of a person whom her haitian neighbors knew as a zombie. ...
"Twenty-nine years earlier, [Felicia Felix-Mentor's] funeral had taken place. She had been mourned, but her family quickly moved on with life. Her husband took a new wife. Her son grew into a man. But then, the autumn before Hurston visited, gendarmes had encountered a woman walking naked along a country road. She had turned up at a local farm and pointed it out as property that had once been hers, an inheritance from her father. The farmhands tried to shoo her away, but the owner soon arrived and, flabbergasted, declared that this was in fact his sister. Her former husband was sent for, and he also confirmed that it was indeed his dead wife, Felicia.
"There was no going back to the way things were before, however. In her absence, everyone, including Felix-Mentor herself, had become someone else. The brother was a prosperous farmer, with control over the old family property that might otherwise have been shared with her. The husband was a minor official in the post occupation government, with a new family of his own. There was little to be done except seal her up again, this time behind the walls of the hospital where Hurston found her.
"Doctors told Hurston that Felix-Mentor was likely the victim of poisoning. A practitioner of dark magic, a bocor, might have given her a drug that simulated death, concocted from a secret formula passed down from priest to priest. The bocor could then summon her back to life, brain-damaged and only a shell of the person she had been before. ... Hurston toyed with the idea of tracking down the formula for the poison and uncovering the secret of the zombie phenomenon. ... But when Hurston suddenly came down with stomach problems that summer, she backed off. ...
"The key to understanding zombies, Hurston concluded, lay not in finding a secret potion or in debunking another's mythology. It was actually believing in them. Felix-Mentor wasn't a person who was said to be a zombie. She wasn't a make-believe one .. She really was one. If you could twist your brain into seeing that fact, then you had taken a giant step toward seeing Haiti -- and the most important, its spirituality -- from the inside. At base, zombies were an object lesson in native categories. They were a way of dividing up reality that spoke volumes about how people in the Haitian countryside inhabited the world. In New York, people thought about death as a finality, the end of everything; reality came in two flavors, now and nothingness. Haitians, however, lived in a society that had opened up a condition not quite here but not quite on the other side of death either, a middle ground between being alive and not."
So I log into my TOS trading platform @ 6:30 a:m
and it's static, no quotes, no mms filling the box, nada. I call TDA
and after 20 min.s this pleasant young woman answers, with a slightly
indignant tone in my voice I say my TOS is static. She says what do
you mean static, so I tell her. Well sir it is sat., oh my God in
my 23 years of doing this, this is a first. I've heard of other people
doing this, but I never have. I apologize, say our good byes and slink
away from the phone and am relatively sure I provided a good funny
for the saturday morning office crew.
I do, made/saved me some ducats here and there.
Go to 'stickies' at the top,
paste your post into 'add post.
OK, that was DD.
Bought back UAMY here @ 1.46+, ugh, hope I want them.
Finally, it's not easy going long.

I wanted so badly to buy yesterday because I had heard such an event was possible with some big names taking up positions starting last week, but I just didn't have the stones.

from The World's Greatest Book of Useless Information by Noel Botham & the Useless Information Society. Facts about the human brain:
"Although the average brain comprises 2 percent of a person's total body weight, it requires 25 percent of all oxygen used by the body.
"In one day, the human brain generates more electrical impulses than all the telephones in the world put together. These nerve impulses can travel up to 170 miles per hour.
"The human three-pound brain is the most complex and orderly arrangement of matter known in the universe.
"The brain is not sensitive to pain. Headache pain originates in the nerves, muscles, and tissues surrounding the skull, not from the brain.
"The human brain is grayish-pink in color and has a texture much like tofu.
"On average, a woman's brain makes up 2.5 percent of her body weight. A man's brain only contributes 2 percent of his body weight. Men's brains are less well formed and shrink at a faster rate than women's.
"The human brain continues to send out electrical wave signals for up to thirty-seven hours following death. ...
"A scientist condemned to death by guillotine in the 1700s supposedly told his assistant to watch his head after he was decapitated, as he would blink as many times as he could to prove that the head remains conscious about fifteen to twenty seconds after decapitation. The assistant reported counting fifteen to twenty blinks.
"The head of executed murderer Charlotte Corday supposedly blushed and looked indignant when the executioner slapped the cheek after decapitation.
"After two rivals were guillotined during the French Revolution and their heads were placed in one sack, one head supposedly bit the other so hard they couldn't be separated."
