When the two kids were still at home the Junk room was the wife's and my bedroom...One time when I was working 2nd shift I was still in bed, but half awake, when I heard a quake coming..The wife heard it too and started out of the kitchen to ask what that noise was...She got as far as the dining room table when it hit...She had to grab onto it to keep standing, but figured out it was a quake....
....Westy.....

Took this today on my jaunt along the river...It is sort of in front of the Senior Center...
Not Eagles, but still birds....LOL...
Goodnight all. About time for me to check in with my keeper.
Have a good one all...
....Westy....
Freepmail!
Abyssinian do.
Ciao!
Very beautiful. The Adige River... Another very beautiful town in the Veneto Region is Treviso (where Benneton is located)... Venice is impossible. Very beautiful, but too many tourists. In the summer you can only walk saying: "Excuse me... excuse me... excuse me..."
The soccer fans of Verona are among the most racist of Italy. They especially hate the Neapolitans and in a game the entire Verona side started chanting slogans to incite Vesuvius volcano to erupt again and destroy Naples.
At that time the great Diego Armando Maradona was playing for Naples. So when Verona went down to Naples to play the return match, the neapolitans were unusually quiet, unusually polite. No hostile chants, no bad slogans... until the great Maradona scored one of his magnificent goals. And at that point a huge banner... really huge, covering half the stadium was unfurled (meaning just about every Neapolitan was in on the secret, but kept quiet). And on it was written.
VERONA! Così la storia ha voluto
Giuletta puttana e Romeo cornuto!
(Verona, so it was foretold
Juliet a whore and Romeo a cuckold!)
There is still a lot of campanilismo in Italy, a lot of competition between towns and cities. (Like saying our church tower is taller than yours)
It reminds me now a bit of all this fuss about Red State and Blue state.
Ciao
OMG...I just looked up Abys after your tip. I believe we have an offshoot in Mickey. He fits the description perfectly. He is not a lap cat, he has an almost muted meow and he loves water. I think he has found the perfect home with three children to keep him amused. LOL
Thanks for the information.
If she is not interested, you may not have to change your gross and slovenly ways.
Let science help you with a neat spray for your lady Valentine.
Mickey's different all right.
Well, tigers do, so you are gonna have to wait and see just how big he gets, unless you can find out who's his daddy.
That's one of the little surprises you get when you adopt an animal.

Outstanding alert. ;-)
Great pic of the Mallards taking some sun.

heh heh heh.......
If you can't 'get it on' then spray it on...

Amazing.
Remind me to tell you later about my encounter yesterday with our dumb as a brick prosecuting attorney.
Oh, but I like him round...:(
K
Ruck!
I look forward to hearing about it; I gotta get ready for work now, myself.
See you later; have a nice day.
