Since the subject of home-entertainment technology has come up already this week, I thought I’d share this from 2005. The premise is valid but not entirely correct, not in the age of digital television anyway. In the event of a problem, you can unplug the modem or unplug the router or unplug the cable box or, if you’re living in the dark ages like some of us, unplug the Roku in an attempt to make things right again. After that, Waaaaah!!
I want you to know that this Web site has accounted for about half the money raised so far in the parsonage Kickstarter campaign. That’s pretty remarkable! You should be proud of yourselves. I am! I hope you have an enjoyable weekend.

Horrible tragedy in Japan. The world has gone mad.
Going in to look for JJ’s rx-wife’s book. Has anyone read it yet? I need more humor. Finished Nora Ephron. The Help is comic and tragic combined. Well, that is Southern.
No one has any of Rheta’so books but I keep getting referred to on line. So be it.
In desperation I bought every book by Rick Bragg to immerse myself in Southern humor. I want to come take his magazine writing course or anything else he teaches. I did not know he taught. Hhmmh? I wonder who is teaching in Tulsa? It’s a long commute and I am never on time.
Deregulate! Deregulate!
It’s following the rules that I hate.
I want to do what I want to do.
It’s good for me and to hell with you.
Jackie, see if the colleges around Tulsa have any online courses in subjects that interest you.
But I love people and other students and voices and discussion, even arguments or criticism. And I want to know how Mr. Bragg and Ms. Johnson write so wonderfully. And if I write awfully I would want to hear it from someone like that, not a mediocre anonymous student intern grading an online course.
As Jerry Lee said, “If I’m going to hell I’m going playing the piano. ” whose biography by Rick Bragg I bought incident ly and we will learn if he really said that often quoted remark.
Jackie, according to what I found, Mr. Bragg teaches at the University of Alabama, here in Tuscaloosa.
Japan?

Mass killing without any guns, rifles, or bombs… just knives. And disabled victims.

You might want to get a Polyfoam cooler
put a 4″ adjustable elbow in a hole in the top
put a small fan at another hole at the other end of the top.
Fill with ice – turn on fan – direct elbow to where you are standing
instant cooling.

There is one using recirculating water but that is a little more complicated
to build. (Mark?)

Duck Tape – lots of Duck Tape on that A/C unit.
If you set the machine on a couple of 2x4s across some bricks or blocks
you could get a deeper pan underneath.
I got so depressed I ate a slice of key lime cheese cake for dinner. I had done all right up until then, a beet salad on frisee, two small Vietnamese rolls and a miniscule Flatbread at exorbitant prices for small plates, then depression sat in and I celebrated trying to start another new life for about the sixth time in a year and a half.
Had just completed another cardiac test where they couldn’t find my heart and we ended up putting me on contrast dye so they could locate it. She said something about large breasts blocking visuals.
They may have found my heart but there isn’t going to be what they went looking for. Lots of false alarms.
TruckerRon, was just kidding. 🙂 I know a number of guys with PhDs & “interesting” vocabularies as well, though. Off on a tangent, did you see Musk’s new Tesla semi? I think it’s a hybrid rather than pure electric, but interesting.
Today’s [7/26] “Wrong Hands” cartoon is perfect for those who have lived with cat(s)….
Good morning Villagers…..
Jerry, thanks for the ‘green’ explanation….mine turns green after submission is successful.
And, it’s going to be 83 degrees today, with thunderstorms….no storms on radar, so I guess we’ll be expecting ‘popcorn’ storms this morning, with heavier storms this afternoon.
Packer broke down for two hours yesterday….got to go in early this morning as all my belt lines are full of eggs, plus the “Candlelight” man from The Corp is coming in today, and we are finally getting that Vitamin D water supplied to the hens….they drank over 500 gallons of water on Sunday…. The Corp man once told Ian that this breed of hens do tolerate the heat better than others. But they sure are looking straggly, except of the one on the top cages…they get most of the breeze coming in through the open window.
Old Bear, thanks for the information….the big fan does keep me cool…we left the cooler door rest on my little Coleman cooler, about 8 inches up off floor, and the temp stayed in the mid fifties. When I get in, I check cooler temp, and it is always 48 degrees.
Ya’ll have a blessed Tuesday
GR 😉 honestly, no I didn’t….but I do want you to know….
