Nope. Not even going there. There are so many flying rats around here that even the coyotes won’t try to catch them.
*blech*
Last night was another rough one for me, for several reasons, none of which I will go into at the moment, but I don’t think I could fight my way out of a wet paper bag this morning.
Still, I’m up and moving, and that’s a bonus!
Interesting.
Just asking, but when were you in an oven to do the comparison?
My vote would be tossing poisoned breadcrumbs onto the roof.
Ugh, rotting corpses on the roof.
I’d like to go to the library to pick up more reserve books, but I’ll wait until tomorrow. There’s already been too much Unnngh today.
Mistakes?
Oh, yeah, I made one once.
I thought I was wrong, but it turned out I wasn’t.
I got to listen in on a hearing in PA to reduce the regulations around homeschooling. There was some bozo who had set up a nice little income source around keeping the current setup. When he said, “If we deregulate homeschooling we will be creating a Statue of Liberty for every juvenile delinquent in the state,” I almost jumped out of my chair. (We were allowed to listen but forbidden to participate.)
What I wanted to say was:
“First, how many parents have you ever met who WANT their children to become juvenile delinquents?
“Second, if a parent did want their child to become a JD, they could simply send them to public school. It works great and takes a lot less effort.”
All that to say, it’s stupid that you have to prove you’re a legal home school. Every parent should have the right to educate their kids at home.
I agree. So did the Constitutional Convention of the State of Oklahoma, and they put it in the Constitution.
Oklahoma's "regulation" is that, if it comes up, parents have to demonstrate that their children are being educated. We used to joke that we'd like them to STOP demonstrating their education and just chew their food!
Which sounds good, but I could just throw the bread crumbs on the grass. The question is, what do I use for poison?
If you’re going to throw the bread crumbs on the grass, couldn’t you just let the cat out?
What I’m seeing on the Web is either anti-freeze (which is poisonous to everything, so maybe not for the grass) and a mixture of peanut butter and alka-seltzer.
If my imagination is correct the alka-seltzer version could be VERY entertaining.
I also saw a description of a nice way to electro-shock their little fannies when they’re up there, but it didn’t include a schematic.
My daughter used Alka-Seltzer on seagulls when she was in the navy. She said it was hilarious. I’m thinking of the clean up...
As for letting the cat out...if any cats are allowed out, they have to be on leashes, just like the dogs are.
Peanut butter and Alka-Seltzer, hmmm? *thinking*
I will not suggest this to Tom.
That is probably a wise choice.
By Sunday, we’re supposed to be down to around 102, and that will make it easier for me to function. I may even be able to act like a real person, driving my truck.
One thing I MUST get is wiper blades. The heat here has done them a job.
Maybe for August, I can take the truck to Jiffy Lube and get it serviced. It also needs a good detailing, but I will have to figure out if I can afford it. The heat isn’t good for the finish OR the tires. And then there is the damage it does to the battery. Here, one can figure a battery may last two years. Maybe.
I’ve never given any thought to auto maintenance in your climate. Perhaps some day I’ll need to.
Still raining, and it looks like I’ll need to go to Walmart for coffee.
Makes more sense than going to Coffemart for walls.
At least, I think it does.
I’m sure the Coffeemart has walls, and probably a roof.
Good morning! It’s sunny and a good opportunity to do outside stuff, but too much indoor stuff to do outdoor stuff (dehydrating produce, making zucchini lasagna and banana cheesecake, paperwork). Mr. Sg forgot to replenish the catz’ dry food last night, so the cats enlisted the dog to wake me up early. You’d recognize co-conspirators when you see them.
With mascara?
So true!
Unless it’s virtual.
