There are no visual “trailers” this week, but I do warn you to be prepared for weirdness with next week’s new Arlo & Janis strips, available here and, of course, in newspapers everywhere. Well, not everywhere. If that were true, I’d be driving a much nicer vehicle.

Good morning Villagers…..and a crisp morning it is.
Glad to read that you are posting again Jerry, and don’t worry about the spelling, I am used to it after 63 years….as a matter of fact I’ve been called several names in my life time, some of which I am proud to be 🙂
Dad’s doctor represcribed Lunesta, a sleep aid. He took the 2mg when he had the catheter, as it was something new and uncomfortable. They only delivered 10 pills. Doctor asked me how he was sleeping, and I told him he doesn’t get a good sound sleep as Dad is up 4 or 5 times a night shuffling to the restroom. I was informed that the prostate excess that was removed was still healing and he will have a few months to go to fully recover. So what does the doctor do….prescribes 3 mg of Lunesta…..I don’t know guys, but I did some reading on it, and for the geriatric in Dad the highest dose recommended is 2 mg. Dad did sleep well though, with less trips, but he has a Lunesta ‘hangover’. Going to call Pharmacist today and have the balance of his 2mg delivered and they can take back the 3mg….I think I will feel better about that.
Mark, had never heard of G42 before, googled it and all I could find was info on Glocks….but I do like that philosophy…do the best with what you have. Were you speaking of Jackie’s fortune cookie?
later…..
Emb…saved your above link…thanks for posting it.
Is this us Jackie???? 🙂

Ghost,
A couple of decades ago, I read that Meat Loaf was coaching a softball team, and the players called him “Coach Meat”… 🙂
Well Dorothy we aren’t in Kansas any longer, said Toto.
This must be Never Never Land? She replied.
Jackie, you must not have clicked your ruby slippers together three times and say “there’s no place like home”
it’s always been my mantra 🙂

Lady Mindy, how’s that “makin’ bacon” thing going for you?
As you probably know, the former Savannah GHO nest is now under new mgt., Ospreys. But the GHO info is still there and this bit reminded me of something once learned but since forgotten: ‘Only the female incubates the eggs. She has a featherless area on her abdomen called a “brood patch” which is designed to keep the eggs warm. This patch has lots of blood vessels just beneath the skin that transfer heat to the eggs. The male does not have a brood patch.’ Brood patches are common in birds, often both sexes. Wonder if only phalarope males have them?
The designer, BTW, is natural selection. As far as birds are concerned, eggs are designed to cool and relieve itching. Don’t know what birds call them. Itchers?
Peace,
Today’s ‘Shoe.’ Ghost might like it. As birds go, she’s really stacked.

Peace,
Awww, rats! I have two weather apps downloaded, and the one with the better map has been discontinued. Heading over to the app store. Sigh.
Have the Oklahoma storms “moved safely into Arkansas” ?
Which two, Li’l Smigz? And which one was DC’d?
Just had breakfast, English muffin and Diet Coke. Last DC so I have to get dressed! Marilyn and I are still at breakfast table. Dickens seems to have gone back to bed.
Ian signed me up for a one month’s trial of Spotify……oh, my cat, even the quality of sound is better…..and that is without using his Bose headphones.
Anyone else on Spotify? You are, aren’t you Mark?
When Ian was explaining to me the start up, he asked me to name a group…and no it wasn’t Chrissie, GR 🙂 . Bowie, I said. Ian rolled his eyes…said, give me something more obsure that U-tube wouldn’t have, I just glared at him…..so Bowie it was. Every song he ever recorded is there…just listened to his song “Seven”.
later……have a universe of music to rediscover.
Smigz, I always like weather underground. I’m mad at whether.com, as many times as I found that stinking umbrella, I never received one, so they don’t get my business any more. Oh, and I like the National weather service…the link below lists five of the best, who decided which five were the best I have no idea…oh, and look out for the 4th one 🙂

What the world has come to.
Need a faucet repair part. Neither the local hardware or big box stores carry any. Log in to Amazon, find five plus pages of options. Ordered the $14.99 part, a screw on replacement spray nozzle, Amazon offers professional installation for $104.49. So much for buy local, and has everyone become so lazy / incompetent that they are unable to make a simple repair.
Ghost, NOAA Weather Unofficial by Granite Apps and My-Cast Weather by Garmin International. The latter is the late and lamented.
Debbe, thanks for the suggestions. Heading over to check them out, with special attention to #4.
Debbe, laughing about #4!
Smigz….out of curiosity, I clicked on it and it’s no longer a viable weather.com….but it was good for laugh….
Smgyz where are you in Arkansas? I was driving in Arkansas a couple of times recently and thought about you. Visiting Llee in Missouri recently reminded me of my personal goal to get to be “real time” friends with as many of Village as possible.
Sandcastler….if you watch the ‘boob’ tube, I know you have seen the Home Adviser commercials….you know the one with the blonde, with her long blonde hair twisted and draped over her shoulder, tight fitting jeans….complete with a tool belt….anyhoo, here’s the link….

Jackie, I’m in Michigan’s lower peninsula, southeast corner, about 20 miles north of Detroit. You might be thinking of when I mentioned my niece in Missouri. 🙂
Brain just kicked in! It is Laura who lives in Arkansas.
I do love Michigan. I am trying to do a map of America with Villagers marked so if I am near one I can try to go visit if they will not set the dogs on me, as we say in South.
Reminds me of “If you can’t run with the big dogs, stay under the porch.”
Jackie,I live in a sub division outside of Earl,ARe.It’s a cross the river from Memphis.
