It was a funny. We MUST be circumspect here so I erased it on re-consideration.

Amazing how we cling to creative hogwash in the "Fountain of Youth" hope of life eternal.

My dinner tonight?..............I had pure pork sausage (no additives other than spices) simmered in granny smith apples and a sliced yellow onion sauteed in butter first until translucent. There were fresh greens beans simmered in a dash of water and butter...real slow and covered. (I NEVER boil vegetables) a bowl of Nancy's 4% Honey Yogurt (Plain is ONLY real yogurt) with some buckwheat honey, some real granola and 1/2 a banana...all stirred up. Water to drink...delicious!

I also recommended "Fresh" gas, and advancing the timing a bit. I assumed it was backfiring out the exhaust. Cleaning the intake filter and a couple of new plugs sure wouldn't hurt. Draining the carburetor is clever and necessary periodically.

About fast and fancy foods?.....................Quality!
Go to a real Chinese bakery early in the morning and buy 3 or 4 of each Dim Sum offering they have. Steam slowly at home, covered in a colander. Pretty pure, additive free food.
Don't forget the soy sauce and mustard.
The fast food is not really "food" The Arby's, McD's, Taco Bells (One of the worst) and others offer food that is heavily adulterated...the breads are the worst. Nothing is spared. There is sugar and other sweeteners in EVERYTHING. The potatoes are peeled, sliced etc. in a running rinse that changes slowly...always a certain percentage of dirt, waste and bacteria. Then they are soaked in a brine of anti-oxidants, preservatives and sugar. Frozen, they are warehoused for up to 3 months. By the time they have been fried in oil, salted and handed to you...they are no longer a palatable product to those in the know.
We do not have the faintest idea what the long term and generational effects these drugs, plastics and manipulated materials will have on us. Not a clue! FDA tests are ridiculous and predictions in the short-term.
When something is composed and baked to fulfill criteria of cheapest components, looks, lots of air, shippable, resistance to collapsing, long shelf life, etc etc...we are not talking healthy, tasty or digestible.
Good restaurants use only top quality products and have a constantly revolving menu of tastys from all over the world. "Static menus" are part of the fast food chain.
The one sheet menu throwaways or the chalk board is indicative of a good restaurant. Expect to pay about $40 (incl. one wine) and up per person. My favorite serves lamb, pork and beef raised on local contract. I happen to know the farmers. Someone goes out and shops vegetables every day, lots of it local. The eggs are range fed, brown, fertile, organic grain etc. eggs. Locally they are about $2.25 per dozen. Delicious. They bake their own bread. The desserts are made on sub-contract and range from $3.50 to $6.00...all handmade. The ice cream is BREYERS (Not Dreyers...crap), which is cream and sugar...nothing else save real vanilla beans, chocolate, real strawberries...no coloring, flavorings, non-fat milk dairy products, emulsifiers, pectin, etc etc etc
The place usually has about 100 people in attendance. Tight tables and about 25 employees. 100 people from open to close...long line always. Zenon Cafe, Eugene Oregon.
Then there is the Excelsior Cafe with silver linen and crystal...she does a wonderful job having fresh food flown in from all over the world every day. Lunch for one runs $50 to $65...order with equanimity. Eugene, OR
Very hard to find real REAL did I say real food?

Solutions.....................................solutions!
You have to admit there are a lot of people in prison.
They are there for various reasons and a few may be innocent, but for the good of all I think we should just execute everyone in prison at present.
This will send a message to the criminals. It will also save a lot of money. It would be easy to demolish 95% of the prisons because the few people stupid enough to go to prison after that would always be looking over their shoulders, and looking forward to getting out before the NEXT mass execution. Put them to work "cleaning up" afterwards. Make them dig graves.
Now ALL adults should be required to attend small arms school and all adults should be required to own and maintain a weapon. Those who for religious purposes or other reasons REFUSE to own a weapon, should have a large "N" tattooed on their foreheads meaning "Non-Participant"...duels would become legal again and be arranged as a public spectacle.
Insurance on automobiles should no longer be required because you know it is dangerous to drive before you ever get in the car. Hurtling along at 75 mph in 4000 lbs. of plastic and steel is not what I call SAFE. Get real out there folks!!
My secret ballot assassination rotation derby is still in the works...I've got lawyers, CEO's, Alpha bitches, chiropractors, ministers, priests, judges, and a few others on the list. Anyone have any suggestions?
I thought maybe we could put all their names in a large rotating drum and once a month draw out 50 names and shoot the winners. Random justice sure has a deterrent effect on criminal activity. We could reduce the number of drawn names as the crime rate went down.
There are lots of solutions out there, almost as many as problems...just takes some intelligent thought and a little backbone...should be able to straighten up the populance in 10 years...buy stock in rear-view mirrors. (Thats for Matt)

premier.....................................Hi!...yes.
A little sugar, there!
I was wondering if you could loan paule some glue? I was talking to him earlier today...he could sure use some, and some good talking.
I went over to Costco, shopped for an hour, back to the truck, got in...and yesssssss...I forgot what I came for...coffee. Gad, I do that all the time.
I am going to try to get this chipmunk to hop up on the keyboard when he wants a peanut. Gonna be a balancing act with the neighbor's two enormous toms.
Had a hummingbird come by this morning and look in the window. Soooooo, back to the old storage shed and see if the feeder is in sight. Have been buying things knowing the exact duplicates are in my storage...buried...neatly...but buried. Sigh!!
What am I going to do with that beautiful Yellow Pine Queen sized GENUINE bed? It is one of those multi-dowel-Head and Foot board models with large corner posts and deep husky side rails. A REAL BED!!!! I bought it and spent two weeks, over 30 hours, putting min-wax clear poly finish on it...steel wooling and all. Easily worth $1500...no chintz there...I spent a month looking for it in Portland.
It is amazing the crap these people offer the public, and how stupid the public is. I went in a bed store that had nothing but those large chintzy beds with 4 extra "trainer legs" to keep it all from falling apart. They didn't have one real bed in the place! Not one!
In one store they got really upset when my magnet indicated that their "BRASS" $1395.oo bed was plated steel! Thieves, rug salesmen...lots out there, and beware.

Colt1861Navy................................Motor Oil
and old Dodge vans go together. They suck it past the worn seals on the valve stems. Problem is, it is a quart every 600 miles or so but it will run another 150,000 miles easily. Only 250 extra quarts, or 10 extra oil changes at $24.95 over 5 or 6 years? Say $45 extra a year in expenses. EH? Who cares?
Hate to tear it out and overhaul it, only 160,000 on the engine.
The way I drive, an overhaul is recommended about 225,000...liable to drop a valve. Hi speed driving causes valve keepers to wear at an astonishing rate. Otherwise, 318 Dodge V-8 are usually good to 350,000 miles.
So, you owe me a can of oil.

Amazing how many of us played with gunpowder, firecrackers and owned guns from early early (7 yrs) age, and fired guns even earlier. I drove my father's car at 9 sitting in his lap first and then stretching the second time. By 12 I was stealing it late at night and by 13 was driving and delivering flowers for him days...fishing in the stolen station wagon and outboard motor on Sunday mornings when they were sleeping off the booze. $1.00 boat rental daily. Bait was usually live in the well...freee...but we would buy shrimp just in case. Fished until sun was hot and then went swimming off the boat.
I have more gun stories than you can shake a stick at.

Good morning...a double Americano please...and leave some room please. These "espresso" places have never been to France.
You need a bottle of brandy behind the counter for the ones that need a little "hair of the dog". Very common in France.
Strong expensive good quality coffee.
Hong Kong serves ONE cup of so-so to Instant coffee and charges $5.00!!!!! This is in the hotels. Coffee is unavailable on the streets for the most part. Tea is abundant everywhere and it is offered free when you wander into a shop/restaurant. I grant you, it is usually poor mans tea, twigs and leaves down on the stalk, but it is every bit as good as Lipton's and hasn't been processed at all.
In Thailand they have the grounds in a large linen sack in a collander, all through the day they just pour hot water into the sack and what results is COFFEE...towards afternoon it is bitter, rank and weak. To this they add sweetened condensed milk if you don't hop in with your hand and stop them.
Saudi Arabians and The United Arab Emirates serve good coffee...about $3.00 a cup...
Italy is great coffe also.
Airports all over are the worst...Heathrow is abominable in more ways than coffee. Customers are moved over vast distances in bus sized "packets" irrespective of your departure times. Don't complain about missed flights...they will have some twist to deny you accommodations while you wait. It will "seem" they are helping and after hours of awaiting help, there will be news that "almost" sounds good and "might" make your delay bearable and "could" relieve some pressures but this "treatment" is supposed to help...help is never forthcoming in the end. Heathrow is PURE TORTURE.
The English are sooooooo good at this sorta thing.
Thanks for the coffee excel, just like I like it.

Like an old pheasant photo. I used to get them in a friend's corn field up in Montana. They would run through the row's but we would sick my friend's buddy on them to get em' up in the air...sure was sporting of us, we only used .22 shorts also.
What fond recollections I have. My friend lost his buddy to the highway that winter. Now he has MACK written backwards on his forehead. Sure was a good cat.

I am so sorry to hear that the education system puts your wife through those hoops. Glad to hear she will be retiring soon. Maybe her knowledge of the system will compell her to mount some part time effort to straighten some aspect of it out?
