When, as a kid taking up archery, we had a straw bale set up in the backyard. Lo and behold our neighbor stood up at the fence and returned a stray arrow. Yikes! It had hit the top edge of the bale sending it up and over the fence. Kinda killed the archery thing. But I still have the bow! Why I don’t know.

As someone who has had a lip swell up from a partially cooked egg yolk, the society approved version is what I must use.

One can buy fire retardant for use in a sprayer. Our plan is that when we get an evacuation warning, is to gather up the few things marked with reflective tape, the dogs, spray the decks and yard with retardant and leave. We won’t wait for the evacuation requirement to leave. The camper is already loaded up with our…

In an article like this, with a theme of American Fashion, which of these designers were American would be greatly appreciated. I don’t follow this topic closely, so I just don’t know. For this specific theme, it is important to know who was on topic, and who ignored it.

I owned an Alpine for the short time we lived in Phoenix AX. Being familiar with VWs I did the maintenance on the Alpine. The biggest surprise was that the tune-up parts were cheaper the the equivalent VW parts! Great car and had loads of fun with it. Phoenix is an irrational place for humans to live, so we quit our…

A working dog would have had an American designer vest with appropriately sequined and flourish laden accessories.

I add glue to the surfaces that mate when assembling stuff from Ikea. It helps stabilize the join preventing movement, which is what kills that style of furniture. The joints are great, if they don’t move at all. Glue helps them not move.

Both of my brain cells yelled out at me at the first paragraph, and then were kicking me after getting laryngitis at the stupidity of this. Very, and I mean very few “reality’ shows have any value whatsoever, and this one lowers the bar below the earth.

The difference is suing those suspected of illegal guns, not the police, private citizens. The law lets citizens become vigilantes for anyone suspected of aiding or abetting an abortion. This would be the same for guns, using citizens as vigilantes. The filibuster can be changed to accomplish certain goals, and then…

I use a spoon! I have some long flat ice tea spoons that have a flat rather narrow handle. Just right to split the muffin like a fork, and then have a spoon to deal with the jam.

Neutral: It is still hot and in a Code Red Fire danger still and we still have at least 2 more months of fire season to go here in the flammable foothills of California. We may be in a 12 month fire season, again.

I love apples too. I tried the three-kinds-of-apples pie and it just ends up with a mixed consistency pie. When you take a forkful, it splits in the the mushy parts slipping off and the crisper parts sticking around. I gave up and stick with all Granny Smiths.

We had a peach tree when we moved into this house. Fabulous peaches. One quick cut stone falls out, one quick rub and the skin peels off. I made so many peach pies over the years. One year I froze 16 pounds over and above the pies I made. There is nothing like a homegrown ripe peach. I shared a lot of peaches too.

Seeing it taxi with the cockpit open breaks my brain!

If we, the public, lie on an official report to the government (police included) we would get into a lot of trouble. Cops need to adhere to this same standard and when caught lying on an official report, be prosecuted for that, let alone for the actual actions. Cops need to be held accountable for their reports also.

As with any and all LEO monitoring activities, who is watching the watchers?

Where I work the system automatically deletes emails older than a certain length of time, so I don’t have to worry about that. Do they back them all up? I have no idea. Am I concerned? Not in the least.

Each and every Republican involved with this unconstitutional abortion vote should be inundated with lawsuits claiming they were aiding an abortion. Include their family as well. Flood the system with frivolous lawsuits to force them to defend themselves over and over again and again to show them, personally, what the…

Some state needs to mirror this Texas legislation, but for guns. Legislate that citizens can report illegal guns or gun use. Vigilantism isn’t just for the radical right. As soon as something like that passes, the SC will find some way to ban it, and the repercussions will fall on the abortion law.

Of course the best w…

I have -not- acquired three vehicles over the years for the simple act of not asking or not leaving a note, three, so when people leave me a note, or ask me about my ‘64 F100 crewcab, I engage them, talk to them and inform them that my dad bought it in ‘65 and I learned to drive in it, and depending on their interest,…
