Still mining the near past, from October, 2014. Not long ago, the remote control was to cartoonists what the smart phone is now, a well one could always return to during a dry spell. One of these days, I’ll learn. I told you I’d have something definitive about the Kickstarter thing, and I do! Sort of. It will begin Monday morning! Unless something totally out of my control prevents it, and I don’t think it will. Tell you what: I will keep you updated with special weekend posts. I’m doing all I can on my end.

Did I miss the special weekend posts?
Yes…as did we all.
Old Bear said; “If at first you don’t succeed, skydiving is not for you.”
I saw a sign in a store last week reading, “If at first you don’t succeed, do it the way your wife told you.”
Debbe said: “I like to throw that sultry word around, also like to say ‘those hens sound like there’s a fox in the hen house….wait a minute, I am that fox in the hen house.'”
Not saying it was you, hon, but when I looked up “fox in the hen house” in the dictionary, there was a picture of a foxy blonde wearing a sultry expression and an orange string bikini. 😉
GR, I have always preferred my wife’s happy smile when we come together for adult activity to any so-called “sultry expression.”
ZZ Top, Foxy Lady, oh yeah.
Stupid computer forgot my name again.
Back in hotel room and getting ready to drink some wine to relax. I know, I know but I know.
So much for the special weekend posts, eh.
The natives are getting restless… And the Orphans…
Jerry, have you been removing cookies from your browser? Or clearing your history? Or installing a new browser? There are lots of things to make a computer to “forget” something.
Not me, but I’ve been getting some help from the next generation. The hp is moving much faster, but now it doesn’t do some of the things that I’m used to.
Jerry in Fl-duh.
Excuse my manners. How are you doing TR?
Reasonably well. There’s a high probability I’ll be called in for a job interview soon… it’s the only position I’ve applied for that (1) is full-time, (2) isn’t 8 to 5, M – F, which means I might survive the hours. With my funky heart condition I can work about 6 – 7 hours a day providing I get a nap in there somewhere. This position has about 20 regularly scheduled hours each week, plus other hours as needed to counsel with the patients.
I was told by the guy who’s retiring that of the 11 candidates (as of Thursday), only 2 of us had the requisite classroom training (CPE) and I was the only one with experience in a psychiatric hospital.
Trucker good luck. Jerry glad you are doing much better. I loved the 70s today up here. Love this country and the towns. Miss my orphans.
A friend of mine posted this yesterday:
I would like to share an experience with you about drinking and driving.
As you well know, some of us have been known to have had brushes with the Authorities on our way home from the odd social session over the years.
A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends at the Bonefish Grill and had a few too many beers and some rather nice red wine. Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I’ve never done before: I took a bus home. Sure enough I passed a police road block but as it was a bus, they waved it past.
I arrived home safely without incident which was a real surprise, as I have never driven a bus before and am not sure where I got it.
Debbe 😉 Sing it, brothers and sister.

A goldie oldie. Reminds me of “I Know It Sounds Strange, But I Wish It Would Rain.”
Which takes me to a fantastic black singer, only he’s whiter than me. His name is Mayer Hawthorne. Does anyone know of him?
For something a little different try Mayer Hawthorne The Walk video. Just don’t let the grandkids listen or watch.
Good morning Villagers…
Thought I’d better check in and say good morning.
Steve, spoke with the gas station/mini market manager the other day regarding our A/C. She said hers went out last summer and it was going to cost $4,000 to replace. I had to pick up my lower jaw up off the counter. She settled for two window units from Wally World. Ours is cooling, but it ices up….maybe a shot of Freon…let my husband take care of it. Got too much on my plate.
Hope the Boss checks in today, Ian and I need help in prepping the hens house for this consumer inspection. Let Ian pack the better part of the morning, and I looked for dead. Curtain backs are horrible, and the beams are too. Dire need of scraping, can’t get it done while packing as egg blocks form up front, and on lines. By the time packing room is cleaned, it’s too hot out in hen house and I don’t want to get my Miss Prissies worked up.
I can’t convince Ian that we can go in early and do some things…..he is really struggling emotionally. And I’m trying to stay strong for us both.
Have a peaceful Monday
GR 😉 just what kind of dictionary is that? And would one want to stay….

Good morning, my roommate and my dog are back asleep so I will too. No early morning people here. We are in trouble.
