Oh; I didn't know that.
2 of you??????? ridiculous!!
Morning, Libby,
Looks like you got your work cut out for you. Hang in there.
Y'all have good day.
you too
Have a goog (GOOD!) day.
: )
you have a nice day, too......and behave today!
Good morning!
Key ingredient, yes, but that doesn't mean the socialists who run our city should punish the rest of us who just want to pick up a bottle of something without hassle. All the cold meds are going under lock and key here... since we have an outrageous drug problem. Do ya think there may be alternatives other than punishing average joe schmoe?
Good likeness...
Good day to you off to the Dentist!:)
Seems like it's kinda pointless to lock up the cold meds there anyway. All one has to do is run across the border to Nogales.
I do agree with you, BQ; it's ridiculous, imo, to place, under lock and key, ingredients to potentially bad things....if you think about it, probably many ingredients, when added to others, could be harmful or fatal.....much as numerous lawsuits similarly allege, as those, for example, of children suffering from certain ailments because the children ate too often at McDonalds. : )
Hi SweetLib,
I've had a birdfeeder in my back yard for twenty years now, and guaged the success by the bags of sunflower seeds -- 25 lb bags -- per month I go through. It has been as high as seven, but the other pet is an outdoor cat, who doesn't need as much food in the winter.
The feeder is an 8 foot by 1 foot trough that sits by the fence, and the clouds of birds it gathers in the two old Chinese elm trees are impressive.
What gave me cause for pause was watching the hawks visit the feeder; they would wait until a hundred or so sparrows had crowded in, then come through lengthwise very fast, snagging one. That wasn't so bad, but they sit in the yard below the feeder to finish off their prey, so I have called my contraption a hawk feeder.
Thinking of feeding finches is really something to put up next to my swinging bench, I've added an electric heater so it is warm to sit there when the air is cold, and the feeder would go where we had hanging ferns. I've moved them to the window wells and added grow-lux lights there.
If all this seems very complicated, it is just to have a bit of greenery and life during the winter months to break up the boredom of cabin fever, and since we don't get the wet heavy snows that last very long anymore, it is a reasonable diversion.
At the dentist a few days ago I saw his finch feeder, and it was well visited, so it seems a reasonable addition.
Thanks for your encouragement.
You are looking at the shark, right?
Looks like the shark is feeling blue...

LOL..fag-ala. ;)
You'd better check your color settings Nully...he's actually a light purple. ;)
I think the shark likes worms.....ahem.
