Really good. Your post, not zerobama’s lies.
Thanks. Nice day up here in the north......this has been a very mild winter. Can’t believe it......no frozen tundra, just green grass. Will wonders never cease.
huh! it’s probably all that hot air the politicians are blowing around.....algore must be having a heat stroke.
“When making whang leather from the hides of dogs, coons, ground hogs, etc. always scrap away the exuviate, (the flesh and fat) until the hide is smooth and clean. Cut the hide into thin strips for sewing horse collars and work boots for which it is oncommonly suited.”
(The Atkinsonville Guide for Young Married Folks, pg. 30089)
Other chapters show how to hammer and swage a 42 inch circular sawblade and build rat proof corn cribs and treat scours in calves.
LOL A++
I have a green yard, too-winter weeds that only grow when it is mild-so much prettier than bare earth and rocks. Raining and 54 today-I had a bid to type this morning, so did not hike-but if it lets up for a spell this afternoon, I’ll go hiking for awhile and enjoy some seed and plant gathering in the mist-the plants will stay nice and fresh and not wilt.
Just look at all the sunshine
Turned on Media Matters and such-
They claimed once to be “news”
But they’re not really so much
Now that they’ve had to exuviate
That fake claim of being fair
We see they are really underhanded
And now that everyone is aware
Their undeserved tax exempt status
Could be summarily yanked, at best
Proving again their meaning of “is”
Doesn’t pass the olfactory test
A+++ You are great at your poems. I am off for my haircut......later gaters. If I find wifi at lunch, I can check in...we shall see.
If you’re using the IPOD you really need Bose Triports.
About 99 bucks at best buy. ( a fraction if what you paid for the music and IPOD)
You can put me on your Cristmas card list afterward.....
Welcome to my nightmare on now

If i may put forward a slice of personal philosophy I feel that Nobama has ruled this country as a demented stumbling child king LONG ENOUGH
LOL. Timmy the tool.
(I was actually looking for a title reference there ; )
Thank you!
Anyone who supposedly can’t figure out how to use the same TurboTax most of use without screwing up should not even be trusted to price out a grocery list, in my opinion. I seem to remember that the tax he owed due to a “little mistake” was about the size of the national debt of a small 3d world country...
Oops-make that “most of US use”...
It’s even worse. He was paid with a check specifically to cover his taxes and then claimed he didn’t know he had to pay the taxes.
I thought that was laughable, too-anyone who works as contract labor knows that they are responsible for paying their own taxes.
This is perfect weather for some split pea and bacon soup-so I’m cooking a pot of it now, and mixing some cornbread to go with it...
You just woke up all the men here by typing the word “bacon”.
