TIME FOR..........FUN ! !

(CONTRIBUTED BY SOME GOOD FRIENDS)

I was in a pub the other night and saw two rather large girls sitting at the bar.

They both had strange accents so I said "Hello, are you two girls from Scotland ?"

One of them gave me a dirty look and said, It's WALES you bloody idiot!"

So I immediately apologized and said "Sorry, are you two whales from Scotland ?

I get out of hospital tomorrow......

 During an annual physical exam, my doctor asked me about what I did yesterday. I told her about my day:
"Well, yesterday afternoon, I waded across the edge of a lake, escaped from a mountain lion in the heavy brush, marched up and down a mountain, stood in a patch of poison ivy, crawled out of quicksand, and jumped away from an aggressive rattlesnake"


Inspired by my story, the doctor said, "You must be an awesome outdoorsman!"

"No," I replied, "I'm just a shitty golfer ."

work?  over 70?  where??  why

Have you ever...............really sat down and thought about working beyond 70 years old.  I don't think you have really done that............atleast not to the extend  you should.  Take a look at what it may mean...........not only to you ..............but to those  BIG CORPORATIONS  that need our money so bad to boost their profits.  This looks like Wal-Mart

ANOTHER MRS BROWN VIDEO

Have a nice day and I hope that this posting has put a GREAT BIG SMILE on your face.

CONFUSION OR CONFUCIOUS

In most cases, one can understand ANY language.  Here is that case.   This video is in German but it is so self explanatory.   Some of ................us....................just find these new fangle """ toys""""  so fantastic..............others are totally confused.

This video shows the result of a person not knowing exactly what an ipad is or what you can do with it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUCpOYdG8hM

my GPS

I use my GPS quite often since my kids bought if for me about 3 years ago.  At first I found it quite fascinating how someone,.................that I didn't even know...............could track me ..............apparently from England (by her accent)  and tell me exactly what I should do at each and every turn.  I would intentionally try to fool the young lady which I nicknamed " the bitch"  since she constantly told me I was going the wrong way.  I found that it really pissed her off..............she would loose patience with me and started to blurt out..................RECALCULATING.  Each and every time I would go in another direction she became more and more impatient with me and the 'RECALCULATING' would seem to get louder and louder..........................until........................it just got so bad that...........................

                                     I found ........................that I should have taken her advice.

In my political view

I was raised to always believe that.............people involved in the Judicial system were bipartisan and reached their decisions by reading and interpreting the LAW as it is written.  In this heated debate regarding the Health package presented by ...................well you know who...............and signed into law by.................you know who..............it has become a point of.....................you know what...............amongst.....................you know who.  After all this known factual rhetoric................it has become a talking topic and eventually a topic to show if it is...............or if it ain't  constitutional.  Well, put nine NON PARTISAN people into one room and ask them to make a decision and ...............walaa...........you come up with a ruling.  Now, these 9 NON PARTISAN people are to take ONLY what their interpretation to the law is.............not their personal beliefs.

                                             I really wonder if they will be able to do it!!!!

They do know, that the United States of America is classified as a Federal Constitution Republic......

NOT a Federal Constitution REPUBLIC---AN.  I can also see why Justice Ginsberg is leaning.........to the left.

Animal Psychologist......mind reader??

Have you ever looked directly into your pet's eyes and have wondered exactly what they were thinking?    Well,........either have I, but just try it once and you would then understand the what? why? and when? thoughts of your pet.   Try this on.

Well,  have a nice day. 

FRACK IT !!!!..........OR NOT

Not long ago, the phrase  "drill baby drill"  was born.  I'm not really sure where it began, who started it or why it became so popular to say.  The only thing I guess I related it to was when Sarah Palin became the Republican choice for Vice President of the United States.  I can still hear the constant chant"DRILL BABY DRILL"and it really began my research into what she was actually giving reference to.  She wanted to open more of Alaska land to drilling for oil.  WOW ! how incredible.

This led me to doing some investigation into the Keystone pipeline when all Republicans began taking about it. I just wanted to become more familiar with all the terms, so I could figure out exactly what it meant to our country.

The question comes down to  "Do the benefits of 'FRACKING'  outweigh the risks.   First of all you must know what Fracking is.  It is the extracting of Natural Gas from the ground through a process called hydraulic fracturng. High volume fracking, with horizontal drilling , recovers natural gas that is trapped in deep shale rock and other formations below the ground. You simply inject a high pressure  mixture of water, sand and chemicals that force shale deposits  to open and releases the gas.
Critics are concerned that FRACKING may create serious environment impact such as methane leaks, water shortages, water pollution and adverse effects on health.   Take a look at this small movie and let me know what you think.

SIGN OF SPRING

Here it is, now March 26th and I began my day as usual.  Newspaper in hand, coffee brewing and thoughts, of all kind, running through my head.  Spring,  where does one begin.  The crocus are croaking, the tulips are tulliping and it looks like the season of wine will be a strong one as I look over the amount of dandelions in my lawn.  The gardener was here on Friday with all kinds of things that have to be done (almost sounds like a wife)  fertilize, trim roses, spray ant bait, spray weed killer, sprinkle moss killer on roof, clean gutters.   I just had to get away from him, since all this work has now exhausted me and ...................I need a nap!  Better drink my coffee first and have my blueberry yogurt to build up enough strength for all this bill paying..............to the gardener.  With the price of gas, he wants to raise my grass cutting costs up $5.00 to a total of $10.00 ,  guess I'll just have to start wearing my ..................."Border Patrol"  hat.  Don't think it will phase him in the least though..........since he is Vietnamese. I keep telling him that I am really sure there is a language problem...............I simply "do not know what it means .................to raise the price"

My only advise at this time for my neighbors is..................."take it easy folks with this spring weather..............we still have 3 weeks of winter.  Remember what that.... MOLE.... "Phil"   told us earlier, and apparently he must still be around looking at my neighbors lawn.


As always, have fun and I'll see you next week

HINTS OF THE DAY ! ! !

 

Today, I would like to take a little time  to offer some little tidbits of advice, learned over the past......................oh say,   70 years.   Advice from both my parents along with from some pretty smart people.   Sure , a lot has been forgotten over these years but for the most part the important ones have been used over and over again and proved to be somewhat normal.      Some had to be checked out at snopes just for validity but once used proved to make sense.

                                  The correct way to treat a good wine..
                                  Open the bottle to allow it to breathe.
           If it doesn't look like it's breathing, give it mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.


AMAZING SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES:

1. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP.

2. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY USING THE SINK.

3. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER.

4. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON.

5. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH.

6. YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.
7. IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. DAILY THOUGHT:
SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES - NOT REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS.

Enough of that for the day.  Have to get to some real serious stuff.

I recently went to the doctors for my annual visit,.........don't really know why, except for the simple reason that I have been doing it for years...............and it gives me the opportunity to visit another woman.........that my wife knows and approves of.   Nothing like having a female internist........that not only knows you ...................inside and out....................but understands you and is willing to listen to you.  Gives me a sense of security.  Anyway, long story short,  she advised that I should limit the amount of red meat that I eat and to try cooking it more thoroughly.............it's exactly what I've been tempted to do for years but was waiting for her to give the red light.  She also advised me to have a glass of red wine each day since apparently my blood pressure is LOW and she want to raise it ........just a little.  I immediately went home and put some of my extra brain power to work and came up with the ideal  GLASS.

Should have thought of this years ago.............but couldn't figure out how to attach the glass so always used a funnel, but found that it leaked, where it came into contact with the bottle.


Now, this is not to insinuate that I'm a wino, I'm only following Doctors advise and it's strictly for health reasons.

I have found that my confidence in her advice certainly exceeds all expectations.

Politics         as in              HUH?

Perhaps its me..............or not, but I am really confused by this statement from our very own
SARAH PALIN.   Now, I know she went to collage in Idaho (perhaps that's the reason)  but  does she know something that the rest of us don't.  Are the southern states secretly becoming slave states .....again?  Do the states want more authority than they presently have.........except when they need the Federal Government to come and bail them out?  Are they again thinking of secession and starting their own country?  Will all the highways be turned into dirt roads again once you hit the Mason Dixon line?  Does she believe that slaves WERE created equal?

She accused President Obama of discrimination, saying he was taking the country back "to days before the Civil War, when unfortunately too many Americans mistakenly believed that not all men were created equal." And she wasn't kidding

Enough said about that.        Now you use your imagination and try to figure out what she was saying............in code.

Anyway, this the end of another week and another posting.  Enjoy and I hope everyone turned their clock forward ! !

ELECTION DYSFUNCTION

Well,   just as I do every morning after getting out of a nice warm bed, I collected the paper, made my coffee , started up the old laptop and then read the headlines.   WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON.....if it's not a murder by some student, a rape by some teacher, or a gaffe by one of our elite politicians  the news just isn't worth reading.


I originally was going to make this posting about the latest thoughts of the Presidential candidates.  Religion and woman's health  but I don't really want to touch any of these with a 10' pole.  As my dad would say,  leave Religion out of conversations with those you want to remain friends with.  How and to whom you pray shall always remain your own business.   SSSSSSSSooooooooo  having said that, I will move onto another subject.   Just want all our politicians to do the same.  Leave religious preferences out of politics, Let us keep one thing to ourselves without you guys messing it up,  and don't tell me how to dress for sex.

DRIVING

Recently, I became aware of the fact that  growing up  does not have to be as hard as most people think. Today, March 5th  our grand kids (twin boys) of our son and daughter-in-law  turn  16.   WOW!  Sixteen,   and much to my................not so surprise....................the first thing that happened that day was exactly what happened to me  59 years ago and to our son and daughter on the days they reached 16.  Off to the Motor Vehicle Bureau...................to get their drivers license.  What a thrill that day becomes in the mind of everyone ..............turning 16.  Just the thought of becoming independent and not having to beg your parents to drive you all around town is a deserving reward.  The only difference between me turning 16 and our kids and grand kids turning 16...................is that after taking that gruesome test they are able to step into ..................their very own car.  Just that proves how times have changed  I,  59 years ago ended up still walking to school that first week or so after 16 before getting my own car,  only after my mom and dad were able to not only locate the car they saw fit for me but the one that was most affordable. It seems to me that it cost somewhere in the vicinity of $35.      It turned out to be a 1936 Chevy ( the same age of me on that day) roadster with a rumble seat..................painted a brown color with orange fenders...............but who cares.....it was mine.  I treated that car like it was fresh off the showroom floor, waxed it up (to get more speed out of it) filled it up with gas (8 gals regular @ $.18 a gal for a total of $1.44) and hoped that it would be enough to last 3 weeks. I hate to tell you what the cost of the vehicles and the first fill up cost now-a-days.  Anyway,  drive carefully guys, always pay attention to the traffic around you, put your cell phones, iPads,and anything else you have in the trunk while you are driving and keep your eyes on the roads  in stead of the.......... ladies and don't forget  10-----20  on the wheel.  
Well, at least now we know what to get them for holiday  something we are all familiar with outside of iPods,iPhones,iTunes,iWhatever and iHops.  We can now search for  curb feelers, steering wheel spinners and fir covers, large dice to hang from the mirror, shirts for the rear wheels fenders, a tiger tail hanging out of the gas tank or from the truck.................and for the very special Christmas present  ..........................one, one, one (1) fill up.

HAVE FUN ..............................AND BE SAFE!!!!

   

A RESPONSE REGARDING THE NEW TEHNOLOGY

I just have received some late information from a friend ..........actually located in the outback of ..................Australia.  She has advised me that the latest of    iToys   will be coming from a RICH woman's  company..........".iGuess"......  with nothing else to do but contradict what    iMan  builds.   However, I told her to send out the latest version of everything she had and I would be willing to give it all a try and give my opinion on the marketability of such in this country.

Did you know that the next big thing coming out is designed by women (brilliant as they are) and the series of the new high definition technology is called, wait for it, ........... - uIron......uCook.......uClean,  (including bathrooms or as we say here "toilets"), uWash........., accompanying the items was this note " I hope you will find time to write some more after you have caught up with the above technology and put it into practise. We ladies will then have the time to lounge around and make our bucket list."    Well, my reply is simple.     WILL NOT WORK!!!!!!!       NADA..........NONE.........end of conversation.

Cheers,


Politics of the day..........

It just hit me!
My dog sleeps about 20 hours a day. He has his food prepared for him. His meals are provided at no cost to him.
He visits the Dr. once a year for his checkup, and again during the year, if any medical needs arise.
For this he pays nothing, and nothing is required of him.

He lives in a nice neighborhood in a house that is much larger than he needs, but he is not required to do any upkeep.
If he makes a mess, someone else cleans it up. He has his choice of luxurious places to sleep.
He receives these accommodations absolutely free.
He is living like a king, and has absolutely no expenses whatsoever.

All of his costs are picked up by others who earn a living.
I was just thinking about all this, and suddenly it hit me...

My damn dog is a Republican!

Retirement!!!

The day after I retired,  Dec 6,1994   I visualised that all would be vacation, travel, golf, travel, golf and a lot of time travelling and playing golf...................did it work out that way..........I can now say with a rounding      NO!   if fact I have been on a golf course less than the number of fingers I have on one hand  and I would say, to be more exact,  three times.    I have .........been able to increase......not improve ,    my handicap by 10 strokes.   The one thing that did happen was..........the travelling bit.  I have been able to get at least one big trip if not three or four trips in  per year  and all to places that ......I actually wanted to see.  What else if left..............hopefully many more trips  but I am getting a little fed up with this standing-by stuff.  Now, for those of you that do not know of or understand the ................"""standing-by""""   stuff I will try to explain it to you.   Being an ex-airline employee, I happened to retire with a lifelong benefit of being able to travel for a VERY LOW cost amount of money.............some will call  FREE, even though it does actually mean that some dollars do exchange hands.  For this  benefit one must only give up one thing........the idea that when you go to the airport, instead of checking your bags and heading to the lounge for a nice drink before boarding your flight you must suffer the anguish of biting finger nails as to whether or not you will actually be on the aircraft.  Thus the   "  standing-by" effect.   Someone else actually has your seat until they do not show up, then it becomes your seat.............or pending whether.....the space or weight reserved for shipping of cargo has been reduced........................ down to the lowest calculation............on whether the Post Office wants to send.......EMPTY mailbags somewhere.  All this sounds like a fair solution to going somewhere for a little cost,  after all, I'm retired,  why am I in a hurry?  it's not like I have to be anywhere on time!!!  .....................Needless to say, I have been  BUMPED  and left at the gate to wave  "goodbye"  to the flight..................I was hoping to be on.   I remember once being bumped in Copenhagen, Denmark  with the amount of money to equal 3 days maximum of stay at a 2 and 1/2 star hotel.  I was left behind for 16 days straight, each night having to find a hotel.....until the next days flight.    After "borrowing" money from other employee standbys, we found refuge either at a  24/7  bar, where we would just buy a single  "elephant beer"  and sip it while taking short naps resting our head on the table.................or seeking a couch to rest on .............in the home of one of our colleagues   ........and a chance at a hot shower.   It was a great learning experience in life but produced friendships still enjoyed to this date...........if only with the children of some of our passed friends (who, by the way) visit this blog to this day.

The one important thing, I remember, is the great times all of this has granted me in not only the fantastic places I have been to..............but the great friendships that these time have produced.  Wouldn't change it for the world. ! ! !

LAUGH OF THE WEEK

A Christian pastor is asking customers to boycott Starbucks due to the company's support of a bill to legalize gay marriage in Washington state, King 5 News reports.
"Christians are upset with Starbucks for turning against God...Starbucks can follow Satan if they want to," Steven Andrew, and evangelical pastor and president of the USA Christian Ministries in California, said in a statement. "However, pastors are to help Christians. Are you on the Lord's side? Will you help the USA be blessed by God?"
The call for the boycott was released Tuesday, a day prior to the bill's passage in Washington's State Senate Wednesday night, according to Reuters.
USA Ministries is also asking for Christians to stop serving the brand at their church facilities and events.
The Seattle-based coffee chain joined more than 100 other firms in backing the same-sex marriage bill.
Other companies taking a similar position include Nike, Google and Microsoft, Half Moon Bay Patch notes.
If the bill passes in the state house of representatives next week, Washington will become the seventh U.S. state to recognize same-sex unions.

Guess this also means that ALL EVENGELISIST will boycott  all Mariner, Seahawk games, Alaska airlines and anywhere else they serve Starbucks.................good ridence............now maybe  THEY should give some thought to  form their own country    Typical...............my God knows better than your God!!!

Guess Howard Schultz, being a Jew.........................just said......................F**k it ...........who cares!!! Let them drink   TEA!!!!

NEXT

My original intention for this week's blog, was to be able to give you some insight into the recent  abnormal snowstorm......followed by an equally abnormal ice storm........followed by a normal wind storm that hit the area of Washington State known as the Puget Sound Area. Very seldom do we have this type of weather .................or at least I cannot recall the severity whereby I have experienced 6 days of power outage.  Two days, I can see, three days I can understand, four days well............ok..........perhaps,................but 6 days I simply cannot accept................but I will and I did and I have lived this pioneer life hanging on to the edge.  To be honest after three days of freezing cold, not able of leaving the house simply because snow removal was just not done and having no car able to make it up the hills or me having the ambition to put chains on,  sat with 3 layers of clothes on, eating cheese, sipping protein drink and of course having the occasional glass of wine........to warm me up..............or at least that's what I told Margot.  Anyway,   we survived the first four days until we discovered that we could now get up the hill and over to a friends house........where there was heat and light....................and we could get out to the casino......................for lunch and dinner.  WOW!!!  life is tough.
POLITICS

My aim today was not to focus on politics. Instead, I wanted to dissect the President's address to reveal potential investment opportunities and risks.

I say "potential" because Congress needs to pass legislation before any of the President's initiatives can really have an impact. And given the recent gridlock in Washington - and the fact that it's an election year - there's no guarantee our elected (mis)representatives will get anything done. 
First, though, perhaps we should find out  what is true, half true, an downright
LIAR, LIAR,   your pants are on fire!!

PolitiFact | Sorting out the truth in politics

BREAKING NEWS

WOW!!  Headline folks...........A quote from the big winner in Florida.........I give you MITT ROMNEY.

"I'm not concerned about the very rich, they're doing just fine. I'm concerned about the very heart of the America, the 90 percent, 95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling."
CNN's Soledad O'Brien pressed him on his comments, adding that they may sound odd for Americans who are very poor.
"Well you had to finish the sentence, Soledad," he replied. "I said 'I'm not concerned about the very poor that have a safety net but if it has holes in it, I will repair them.' The challenge right now -- we will hear from the Democrat party the plight of the poor. And there's no question it's not good being poor and we have a safety net to help those that are very poor. But my campaign is focused on middle-income Americans."
"We have a very ample safety net," said Romney. "And we can talk about whether it needs to be strengthened or whether there are holes in it. But we have food stamps, we have Medicaid, we have housing vouchers, we have programs to help the poor."
Programs in the "safety net" are also suffering during the economic recession. Medicaid, for example faces cuts as states attempt to balance budgets at a time when more people are using the program. GOP lawmakers have also eyed cuts in food stamps as food prices rise, even though more Americans are using the the program as a consequence of the economic recession.
Romney's policies call for cutting federal spending and reconfiguring the social safety net. He calls for an immediate five-percent cut to non-discretionary spending, which would hit the safety net hard. He proposes turning Medicaid into a block grant program and undertaking a "fundamental restructuring of government programs and services." He also calls for capping spending at 20 percent of GDP -- a significant cut -- and adds that he "will pursue further cuts" as spending comes "under control."

BY THE WAY.......in case you haven't heard these entitlement programs are just the programs the Republican party are trying to dissemble.  Is that they way he will fix them??

Have a good day !!!!!
