Good evening all. Wow, seems like Blighty is being thoroughly rained on again. When I was there is June there was flooding in the west and south west. Best invest in some water wings chaps.

I am right chuffed tonight. I have a BB pistol powered by CO2 gas and it began to leak. The agents wanted to return it to the importers and keep it for a month at a vast charge.

I read up on the internet and found a video showing how to strip it and fix the leak with teflon tape. Worked a treat it did. I can kill my paper targets again without spending a small fortune.

Hopefully everyone is well and looking forward to another weekend. Well, tomorrrow is Wednesday you know and, as our German friends call it Mitwoch (midweek) it does mean the week is nearly over the hill. hahah. The thing I miss most about not working anymore is the weekends.

Ciao

You know I took an printed copy off my computer of an electromagnetic pulse over our area..that resulte din giving me an case of Gout to the courts here ahwile back, they didn't do much because this was an HARRP action thrown out intot he atmosphere during George Walker Bush's relection here in Oregon. If course if your infirm with "Gout" you can barely make it to the polls to vote,let alone to the doctors office ..Oregon never really backed George much...at least when he sided to Kenny Lay and between the both of them they destroyed Oregon's educational system by not paying corporate taxes to support it. Gamma Rays were present during the 2004 Sumutra, Indonesian Quake and during the March 2011 Japan tusumini the endangered the Nuke facitlies over there...so we pay attention to the "annomalities" no one can seem to explain but wecompare notes on what we are picking up. We have some very dangerous people loose in the world these days. I think of all the great evil George Bush has done, it's got to be making anyone that disagrees with him an "mental case" to be locked up...they just recently worked with an teacher he had done this to here....that theywere looking into giving an adminstative job in an school district and didn't know how to clear her name.  there is NO PLACE this man has NOT implanted himself into my mother's legacy family if there is  money to behad from us by his gleaming onto it. Save the grace of God only... can stop the monster. Almost as bad as my brother James telling me this summer he's God....no, he's "Jim" and always will be. I told him to stop making himself an "Anti-christ"...it wasn't becoming. So we don't see each other to much these days.

Did you know that the entire southern part of the USA is poverty ridden but not...Florida..Texas..or Arizonia....Even California now ranks as only the 10th richest state now...probably from the influences of the Hispanic migration northward. They refused to do things the correct way so we could immgrate them slowly and fit them into society without bring in financially downward...and don't think your not affected by this as the hollywood personailties swarm into England these days also..selling their California properties. Ihope you don't suffer as we have trying to keep them from overtaking our state with their money...bringing in their drugs and alcoholism and crime....and favoritism. With the hispanics they hide behind the Catholic religion also....mkaes anythign they do "OK" they think. Not really. Not really at all. The good are good, the bad are still bad....you know them by thier "works" of what they do in life to others.  God knows what's going onin the world, he test people for their goodness in life. Thier free will choices.

I watched "Dancing with the stars last night. Then stayed up in the wee hours of the morning doing some genealogy work...and just finsihed that an bit ago for a while. I need to go out and walk. I hope to do that here pretty soon. I'm eating my dinner right now as I read POE...can't get into earthboppin..wonder who took it out this time...maybe they had thier big quake and I can't access it because of that, I always had the feeling it would be the way things would be if they did have an large quake. I wanted to get in their and talk to Leslie, since she has an green house and tell her some of the new plants..such as an new "bush" sized  thornless raspberry plant that's been developed..using some kind of an berry in New Zealand.  I was reading aboutvarious new things coming out yesterday in magazines I had picked up. Yesterday is an day to have forgotten I think in ways as far as I am concerned...by the time hubby came home.  He ate and took refuge downstairs on his computer and tv set down there....didn't pay me any mind I guess you know. That's why I get so angry I guess.  He does as he pleases...reguardless of me. I have no say so of my own for justifiying my grips...and things that bother me.  Kind of like that little kitty cat I saw in reddit.com, some people stopped thier car when an small cat ran out in front of it, with it's head stuck in an plastic can of some kind...apparently licking itout and got it stuck.  Well, they help the kitty, an then took it home and cleaned it's wounds and gave it bath and fed it reagular food until it healed up. Took pictures of it and posted them if any one recongized it as their cat. Keeping it until someone claims it. Butyou know...when your in an predictament..you could use some help at times.

I had something for Syd also....I don't know if it's worthy but he might would like to look into it...back of Mother Earth Magazine in the classsified section...12 or 24 VDC Freezer. Very efficient. 4.5 " Insulation. Double gasket. Refrigerate Freezer themostate. Excellant for cabins or back up. SOLAR POWERED.  jm@the-sun-star.com .. phone 260-499-4972.

One thing you might need if your electricity can't be depended on, most anything else you can make do with some kind of camping equiptment....but it's just to expensive these days to let meat spoil in an freezer not working from an emergency. Other then that...it's can everything in glass jars maybe.

For you ladies...$19.99..Item #5860...call free...800-234-3368...The Gluten-free Gourmet Bakes Bread, by Bette Hagman...she also answers questions and gives you an list of where you can find the baking supplies. Makes fo ran good Chirstmas gift...and it's getting about that time now to think of it this year. Better Homes and Garden magazine has an an coupon in the back of it for Coldwater Creek clothing...of $30 off for an purchase of $100 or more...valid until Oct29, 2012....thier ladies coats and jackets can't be beat in ways. The book shows how to pair med. hued gray slacks with an mustard colored 3/4 length coat and then brighten it all up with an knit stripped shirt of  small kelly green and orange stripes sweater over an white collared blouse underneath it all..looks very nice...looks young looking also. Things like that help make the hunger go away for me right now.

I go for now...I'm still in the mode of letting my feathers get unruffled in ways. Talk to you later on....... Ron, what would you do if I came crawling up to your and anna's door on my knees and hands and weary tossed, an struggling vagabond(like Scarlet in Gone with the wind) and say...Ron.".I can't take it any more!"...would you send me over to Sue's house or what?.... Just wondering. Tell me I am an "Stephane" .....hum.

Get an old bed sheet, old rake, attach sheet to rake, attach rake to dust bin cover,  stand and float away..

Hope things are getting better,,with all the droughts out here in the west, we would sure like the moisture...
