CHICKEN BRICKS ARE OVER THE 50% AND NEXT SUNDAY IS SHATTING DAY...
BLESSING BE ON YOU ALL..
ESPECIALLY WITH PUPS COMING YOU REMEMBER MY GOAL IS TO BREED A FEMALE EVERY TIME ONE WHELPS.. WHICH WOULD GIVE US 6 LITTERS A YEAR AND ABOUT THE RIGHT NUMBER FOR OUR CURRENT TRAINERS TO HANDLE.
WE HAVE AN APPLICANT IN THE GUEST HOUSE NOW "TRYING " A PUP/DOG...
MEGAN AND STEVE HAVE A GOOD ROUTINE GOING.. I AM NOT EXACTLY SURE WHAT IT IS... EXCEPT THE DOGS ARE TURNING OUT VERY NICELY...
****
IF TODAY IS CYBER MONDAY, I FELT I HAD TO DO MY PART TO KEEP TEH ECONOMY GOING.. SO I WENT ON LINE AND BOUGHT AN OIL CAN. A THUMB PUMPED OIL CAN.... BEFORE WE HAVE A NASTY FIRE IN THE FIREPLACE...
MANY FOLK SEND THOSSE FIRE STARTERS WHICH STEVE RECOMMENDS ( THE TOILET PAPER TUBE STUFFED WITH DRYER LINT) AND THEY CERTAINLY DO WORK... BUT I PREFER A WEE TOUCH OF KEROSCENE TO GET THE WHOLE THING GOING ... FAST...
.
I FEEL I MUST DO AN FYI TO EXPLAIN THIS BECAUSE AT DOGFEST 2 YEARS AGO, I ASKED 2 CAMERA PEOPLE STANDING AROUND TO LIGHT A FIRE IN AN OUTDOOR PIT TO BOIL SOME CORN--- IN UNISON THEY BOTH GRABBED THIER CELL PHONES AND DIALED "HOW TO START A FIRE"-- AT WHICH POINT MEATCUTTING STEVE WANDERED BY AND SAID HE STARTED HIS WITH DRYER LINT STUFFED IN TOILET PAPER ROLLS-- AT THAT POINT THE TWO OF THEM WENT ROUND AND CLEANED OUT ALL THE DRYERS ON THE PROPERTY.... IT IS TO THIS GROUP OF CAMERA PEOPLE I FEEL SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE RED AND BLUE CANS THAT CARRY INFLAMABLE LIQUIDS ....
RED IS FOR GAS - LIKE WHEN YOUR CAR RUNS OUT OR THE MOWER NEEDS GAS--- THE BLUE IS FOR KEROSENE OR DIESEL-- AND NEVER THE TWAIN SHOULD BE CONFUSED... WHEN EXPOSED TO A FIRE SOUCE---- GAS EXPLODES WITH ENTHUSIASM- KEROSENE WILL EXPLODE ONLY IF AERIATED ( SPRAYED IN LITTLE DROPLETS)---- IF POURED IT CATCHES FIRE- IN A MORE DIGNIFIED MANNER LACKING THE ENTHUSIASM OF GAS-- AND GAS FUMES ARE EVEN MORE ENERGETIC ABOUT CATCHING FIRE. LIKE --- BANG---
I WAS TOLD- BY THEM AS SEEMED TO KNOW.. THAT THE SPECTACULAR EXPLOSION OF THE SHIP IN BOSTON HARBOR FOR THE MOVIE "BLOWN AWAY" WAS SET WITH ONLY 3 GALLONS OF GAS-- IT WAS A BIG ENOUGH BANG TO UPSET ALOT OF BOSTON AND REVERE... AND CHELSEA.. AS A MATTER OF FACT-- I KNOW BECAUSE I SAW WITH MY OWN EYES, THERE WAS A WOMAN FROM THE PRODUCTION COMPANY WHO HAD SET UP OFFICE IN THE MCDONALDS IN REVERE TO WRITE CHECKS FOR ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAD CRACKS IN THEIR WINDOWS OR CHIMNEYS...
I DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH TEH EXPLOSION.. MY BIG AND EXCITING JOB WAS TO GET A LIVE FISH ON THE HOOK OF ?LLOYD BRIDGES? WAS IT? WHICH WAS VERY COMPLICATED INVOLVING A CANOE UNDER THE DOCK AND TANKS OF LIVE FISH FROM THE CHINESE REATAURANTS... HOWEVER....
BACK TO THE CAN....
THE PROBLEM WITH THE CAN I AM NOW USING IS THAT TO GET IT BACK ON THE LOGS FAR ENOUGH IT REQUIRES A BIT OF A TOSS....
NOW RETHINK THE DROPLETS BIT I SPOKE ABOUT. I HAVE LOST MY EYEBROWS MORE THAN ONCE.. SO TH ETIME HAS COME FOR ME TO GET SOME LIQUID POURING DEVICE... HENCE THE OIL CAN WITH A PUMP AND A 12" LONG SPOUT... TO PLACE THE OIL MORE CAREFULLY.
THE HORRIBLE MISTAKE YOU MUST NEVER MAKE IS TO USE A BLUE CAN TO GET SOME GAS INTENDING TO EMPTY IT INTO SOME MACHINE... WHICH THEN LEAVES A LITTLE GAS IN TEH BLUE CAN-- THAT IS A LETHAL SITUATION.
THE OTHER BIT OF FIRE EDUCATION THE YOUNG KIDS NEED AROUND HERE IS HEAT RISES YOU CAN NOT START A FIRE BY PUTTING A COUPLE LOGS IN THE FIREPLACE... ADD SOME KINDLING ON TOP AND THEN ADD CARDBOARD ON TOP OF THAT.. THEY ARE ALWAYS CONFUSED WHEN THE CARDBOARD BURNS AND NOTHING ELSE-- I HAVE WATCHED THIS PROCEEDURE MANY TIMES...
THE CURRENT EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM DOES NOT INCLUDE BASIC THINGS LIKE GRAVITY-- WATER FLOWS ONLY DOWNHILL NOT UP AND HEAT RISES.-- AND MORE IMPORTANTLY -- THESE IDIOTOTIC THINGS SAID IN A SCIENCE CLASS HAVE ACTUAL EVERYDAY APPLICATIONS.
****
MOVING ONWARD.....
*****
THE BIG DISCUSSION AT YESTRDAYS SUNDAY STEW... WAS THAT APPARENTLY A PRETTY GOOD RAINSTORM IS DUE HERE TOMORROW.. WHEN A BUNCCH OF PEOPLE ARE ALL HAPPY ABOUT A DRENCHING STORM, YOU CAN TELL....WATER I VERY NICE TO HAVE-- IT WILL NOT CURE OUR DROUGHT BUT IT WILL HELP WITHTHE FOREST FIRE BIT...
I WAS SHOCKED TO HEAR THAT ?ATLANTA WAS INTO RECORD DAYS WIHT NO RAIN? WHILE NORTH CAROLINA IS DROWNING I TOO MUCH.. WHEN MOTHER NATURE GETS IN A PISSYFIT THERE AIN'T NO CURE. I WATCH IT HERE IN BOSTON WHERE THE CAPE COD AREA GETS ALL THE GREEN AND YELLOW STORMS ON THE WEATHER MAP... AND CAPE ANN ( US) GETS NOTHING.
*****
CALENDARS TO BE DELIVERED DEC 4TH?? ISN'T THAT A SUNDAY??? LIKE SANTA SUNDAY TOO???
*********
THANKS TO JAN--- I FOUND OUT THAT THE LETTER I HAVE BEEN EMAILING TO PEOPLE TO PUT IN THEIR HOLIDAY MAIL GOES THRU COMPLETELY IF I SEND A PDF FILE--- WHEN I SENT THE JPG FILE ONLY ONE OF THE 3 PHOTOS AT TEH BOTTOM WENT THRU.. AS A PDF.. IT WAS COMPLETE...
ANYONE WANTING A COPY OF THAT LETTER LET ME KNOW BY EMAIL AND I WILL SEND IT..IT IS MOSTLY AN FYI AND JUST STATES WHAT WE DO-- AND MAYBE WHY SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE FUN WATCHING THE COMMERCIAL FREE CAMERAS...
