Good to hear John B's voice.
Happy Saturday

Not sure if anyone is really interested in this, however John B just covered it:

Hi Alphs. What's new with you?Originally Posted by Alpha
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." ~ Ronald Reagan

Our 10 p.m. moon is big and bright--tho' maybe not as big as I thought it would be after all of the hype. I, of course, forgot to go out earlier to see it, dang it. The whole sky is very bright. Don't need a flashlight out there at all.

Hi Dera
Not much new around here. I spend the day digging dandelions out of my lawn. They've banned so many herbicides here that they are spreading like wildfire so I'm probably fighting a loosing battle. I have this new gizmo the you stick in the ground, then step on this pedal which closes the blades on the gizmo around the roots of the weed and then you pull up and then pull this release thing on the gizmo. It works pretty well.
I did the back yard today...tomorrow I have to do the front and there's a lot to do there. I also tried an experiment on some of them. I took a measuring cup of bleach and my turkey baster and basted some of the weeds with bleach. I want to see how long it will take to kill the weeks if it does
Anyway, that's my "exciting" news. What's up with you and the Nickster?

Oh cripes. Those poor people probably had about the same choice as we have had on the installation of all of our nuke plants. Atonement? Pah!

Yeah, I thought it was going to be bigger too. I'm going to go out and look again at the bottom of the hour.

I agree, but that attitude sound very congruent with Japanese culture....kind of a hara-kari of a different kind.

I have a full moon avatar for you, if you want it.

Nick is the same, finicky Nicky, and spoiled rotten. I got cigs yesterday (an off brand, but they are just fine) for $30 per carton. (Shhh. Don't tell on me for smoking) . Anyhow, a checker at the grocery store gave me the hot tip--the Riverside Hotel/Casino over in Laughlin. Nevada. (Better than from the Native Americans!) I had a luncheon with my cronies at a place about halfway to Laughlin, so I went on over there after lunch. I walked more than I have in years and nearly finished myself off. I can barely walk today! I sat down at about a dozen slot machines (never put even a penny in a machine) and rested. It is a humongous place! I might be able to find the smoke shop faster the next time as it was a lot easier to find my way out than it was to find the shop. The pain pills are not helping my back today--or anything else! I am sure I should walk 'way more than I do, but it is easy to avoid stuff that I "should" do, especially when it hurts. The pool is up to 70°, so I can swim in two or three more weeks. I will do that!
