Thanks chopper, as always. Have a good day at work.
Yes, thanx Vick……..enjoy your day as well. We're finally getting a little bit of rain in the Northeast, gardens are enjoying a drink from the sky.
Good morning Chopper. Quite a start to the day having to smack down a childish troll, eh.
The rhetoric in the presidential campaign is really heating up. I guess as the likelyhood of Obama's chances diminsh, the presence of these idiots will increase.
Well, anyway, have a great day.
Morning to you too Officer. I'm convinced that if maobama is taken down in this election………there will be rioting in the streets.
I can't wait!!!! This is going to be exciting.
I think if he doesn't lose, there will be a revolution.
We have 190 days left to get Obama out of office.
Has he been paying his rent?
As far as I can tell…. I'd say he's paid up well in advance on his low rent.
Good morning chopper. My goodness, what a progressive start to this fine day.
You are correct chopper, the lack of quality, gratuitously presented, leaves absolutely no confusion.
I was thinking something much more useful when I first arrived this morning:
I give you "National French Fry Day"… just in case you were unaware: http://bostonherald.com/blogs/lifestyle/fork_lift...
Good morning Cityhawk, and thanks for the post about the French Fries. The article reminds me of a time in my youth when I had a job in a small restaurant. My main chores were washing dishes but I was also responsible for preparing potatoes for French Fries. We had a machine that kind of, sort of, peeled them and another gadget for slicing them into their final shape. They were real and fresh and I cannot recall any fries since that tasted better.
Anyway, thanks for the memories.
Good french fries are one of mankind's great foods. I like em on the brown and crispy side.
I remember a little drive-in in my hometown that had curly fries. That was about a half century ago. A recent trip to visit relatives revealed it is still in business. I wonder if it is because of those great curly fries.
oh that's too funny DB……..
Rarely, an i mean rarely, do i eat any fast-food. After i left work this afternoon i was hungry, in a hurry, and had some things to take care of………….so i went thru wendys and grabbed a couple dry bacon-cheeseburgers………and some fries. I got 3 burgers…….2 for me……..and 1 for the dogs to share. They helped me out with the fries too. 8^)
They're lucky (the french frieing gawds)…….because i certainly won't be making any myself later.
Has anyone told Michelle? If so, say buh bye to French Fries! Where would we all be without her patriotic help?
sigh……………………is it Nov yet?
Anybody mozey over to American Thinker this am? Try this one on for size:
http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/07/please_no_...
Knew there were good reasons to be suspicious of this babe.
Good link AZV…..thanks. No Rice-A-Romney for me….. 8^)
Gotta love this Citizen Patriot. http://youtu.be/jfdEbe7e9GE
Hey Mark,
Thanks for that. Really good. I forwarded it on. It pays to be informed.
This man knows his rights.
Yes forward it on.
Thank you Mark.
Right back atcha Cowboy, I am still laughing my a$$ off at your Sam Eliot post!
I found it over at "The Mad Jewess".
(I forgot to give them the credit).
She has some really hilarious stuff over there.
Very good example of how to exercise the Second Amendment to the U.S.Constitution. The carnival barker coppers were forced by a MERE citizen 8^) to yield power back unto it's rightful owner….a mastercard moment……
Nice to see a Citizen standing their ground.
Well, I was thinkin' happy thoughts. It's raining in No. Texas…..In July!!!……..nice, slow gentle drizzle. AND THEN, the frikkin' power goes out! WTF? Really Oncore Electric? Really? It's just a @#$%^&%$#@@$$%^ DRIZZLE!!
it's not the drizzle, probably just someone stripping the wires for re-sale..
THAT, was funny.
Hmmmmm. That's a thought. If he was tryin' that in the rain, maybe there's a crispy-fried copper thief hangin' on a pole somewhere.
I predict a back-up generator in your future sis… jes' sayin'. ; )
Enjoy yur drizzle…
Speaking of drizzle, I see that former CONgressman Anthony Weiner is thinking of running for Mayor of New York City, and also that Maria Bartiromo at CNBC interviewed Elliott Spitzer last week……….
You call that drizzle?
I'd say that was full blown scours!
Gawd, here we go with the bovine theme again…
You're determined to entice me to stick my foot in my mouth today, ain'cha?;-D
.
Well.
I was thinking more along the line of dripping and drizzling.
As in venereal………..
weiner should probably pull out before it's too late………..
sorry.
You're in rare form tonight, chopper. What with all that gray hair you gave your parents way back when.
i'm sorry vick.
Before i call it a night, i'll leave you with this Betty White quote that i read tonight. Not sure what i was doing, or where i was going, or how i ended up reading this…………but i laughed so hard i almost peed my pants.
http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/424652.Bet...
Funny stuff from Betty. Just like you yesterday. You were throwing one-liners out all over the place.
I remember Betty White well beginning with her 60's gig on Password with husband Alan Ludden as host. She was pleasant and bright. Who'da thunk underneath that exterior beat the heart of such a wonderful human being. The ones like her are rare.
heh….I've been working on that. Got a few estimates. I'm trying to decide how big I need to go. Ever since Oncore took over it's been ridiculous. We always had a lot of power outages, but for a darn good reason……..hellacious storms. And, they'd have it fixed in a couple of hours. Since Oncore took over all you have to do is spit on the ground and the power's out all day.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Sis, I believe this new much slower repair service to be the case in a good deal of the south/southwest. Xcel bought our long time provider out about ten years ago, and service has been downhill ever since.
I too am studying on how big to go, since I need three at various locations. That's gonn'a be a serious chunk of change.
Ooooof! Three? I only need one and money is not an issue, but I'm trying to decide how big of a propane pig I want to look at. Ugh.
money is not an issue
As long as I'm engaged in farming, I hope to call it equipment… heh heh
Yep, I have four houses (two too many), and one I probably won't bother equipping with a gen.
Makes me want to pitch a tent, cook over a campfire and sleep on the ground…
Wonder how long it would take to get over wanting a shower?;-D
.
Hmmmmm…..maybe I could call it a "medical device". I need constant power to my computer to keep my sanity! Oh wait….Obamacare will tax the crap out if it. Nevermind.
I have an outdoor shower. We designed it after the ones they have in Jamaica. Great in the summer, but too cold in winter. The well has a pump that won't work without electricity, but the shower is downhill, so I can still take a shower, not a lot of pressure, but enough. The shower in the house needs the pressure to work.
I like the tent idea. No housework!
What I'm trying to figure out about the generators is which ones are most dependable and have a long life expectancy. Also whether to go with propane or diesel. My houses use propane, but if there were fuel shortages, being in the farming biz, I could probably get diesel as readily, or maybe more so. I have been checking into all this for three or four years, but since there is really no one local that does the installation and hookups it's been challenging. We get warnings from the local power companies all the time, about the danger home generators pose to their employees, so that liability is a concern.
I've had the thought that buying all one brand I might get a better deal, but then there's the issue if they turn out to be unsatisfactory because of some little manufacturing glitch, they'll all likely be duds. Eh, I think this is something to research to wile away the hours this winter. Who can say that the statist in charge wouldn't come and confiscate the damn thing claiming a clinic, soup kitchen or a hospital needed it worse than I did.
I don't have an outdoor shower, but I have a horse tank. My water comes up from about 400 feet, where it's constant 54 degrees… burrrr. Even in the hot summer time, 54 deg is a mite too cool-ish, although I could fill the tank, allow it to sit a day or two and it should be fine temp wise. Just a matter of fishing out the dead birds and bugs… LOL! Cleanliness is so overrated… ;-D
Howdy Stinky ;-P***
My bro and I just finished (almost) installing a Generac generator at his house. They have a great reputation up here. Not sure if they do diesel, but likely so… My deal on which to use would be energy units per storage space on diesel vs. gas. Just a guess, but diesel is probably the better of the two in that regard.
Yeah, I know diesel has some advantages, but propane runs cleaner, and there are less parts to worry about gumming up in the fuel delivery system. In winter diesel can gel, especially if it hasn't had the additives that prevent that, say, if it is leftover from summer purchase. It's really just a toss up which fuel would be more available in an event where electrical power happened to be disrupted for days or weeks. My house is on a MAJOR transmission line, which should mean I would have power when others might not. In the past that was true, but since this last company change, I'm skeptical. Generac was one of the brands I was researching a couple of years ago.
Just got a kindle fire as a gift from the
cont..
Well…. way to just leave us hangin', Hmn…
.
Back on the computer with a real keyboard. I got a Kindle from the Mr. as a gift today. I am so challenged when it comes to computers etc. On the Kindle I was so excited that I managed to get on to this site and thought I'd take a stab at making a comment. Twice my keyboard just disappeared when I pushed the wrong button and I couldn't find a way to get it back.
LOL, well keep at it girl… practice makes perfect.
I too am 'puter challenged. The dang thing better come on when I push the button, or I'm up the creek.
Enjoy your new toy!
Guess it is obvious I have some learning to do.totally lost my keyboard in the middle of my last two attempts at a comment.
I made blueberry pies the other night.
The left over crust, I rolled up and sprinkled sugar and cinnamon on it.
I brought it out for breakfast the next morning.
The grandkid says Wazzat?
I told him to shut up and eat it, that it was a Hillbilly Croissant…….
HA HA HA HA HA… Gawd, I never know where you're goin' when you bring up that grandkid…
At least this time no kitties got their tails docked…
I always called those Hillbilly Croissant thingies leftover pie dough…
I hope you know what he's talkin' about when he asks for them again
"Next American woman heads for space — on this Russian rocket"
I AM SO FUCKING ASHAMED. I don't normally type in caps. but I had to shout it out.
Sorry, more caps: "THIS PIECE OF SHIT HAS GOT TO GO!"
Watching a great documentary on the Lt. Dan Band on the DOC channel. Being a musician myself, these guys are pretty darn good.
