IDEAS COME SO QUICKLY, I CAN BARELY RESPOND... KIRSTEN,CP, SUGGESTED WE DO A COFFEE TABLE BOOK WITH ALL THE 5 YEARS CALENDAR PICTURES-- WONDERFUL IDEA---THERE IS ALWAYS QUESTIONS... SHOULD WE INCLUDE SOME OF THE ANTICS WE GO THRU TO GET THESE BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS.... MY IMMEDIATE THOUGHT IS THE PICTUE OF JANINE ON HER HANDS AND KNEES WITH A PUPPY ON HER BACK SO WILLIAM COULD LINE UP THE PICTURE OF THE DONKEYS -- SHE WAS NOT "DRESSED FOR THE JOB" EITHER... AND WITH BAILEY HIGH IN THE BUCKET OF THE TRACTOR PRACTICING FOR BALANCING IN THE TREE... NO PHOTOSHOP THERE.
I KNOW WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING WITH THOSE PICTURES-- I HAD IN MIND A STRING OF THE 13 / YEAR TO DISPLAY ON THE WALL.. SEE I DON'T KNOW OF A GREAT DANE HOUSEHOLD THAT EVEN HAS A COFFEE TABLE ANYMORE BECAUSE OF THE TAIL HEIGHT.
****
THEN THE INTERTNET--- BOY DO I FEEL THE NEED TO STRIAGHTEN THAT OUT.-- PROBLEM IS...... WE KNOW WHAT WE KNOW--- WHAT IS FRIGHTENING IS WHAT WE DON'T KNOW.... ONE THING I DON'T KNOW.... AND I GOT THE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE OFF THE INTERNERT
SOMEBODY- WHO DID N'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY ADGENDA- TOLD ABOITU HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE AGE STUDENTS IN JAPAN WHO WERE ENCOURAGED NOT TO GO TO COLLEGE BECAUSE THEY SEEMED TO LIKE BEING IN THEIR ROOMS 23 HOURS A DAY LEARNIG TO HACK INTO ANY COMPUTER SYSTEM ..... IF THEY ARE ENCOURAGING THAT IN JAPAN , I AM SURE HACKING IS ENCOURAGED IN OTHER COUNTRIES-- SO FOR US TO THROW OUR HACKERS IN JAIL NEEDS A RE-EVALUATION.... WORLD WAR 3 COULD BE A CYBER WAR...
SO WORLD WAR 4 WOULD BE FOUGHT WITH STICKS AND STONES ANYWAY..
****
THE WORLDWIDE PROBLEM ANYWAY IS SIMILR TO WHAT WE HAVE HERE ON THE FARM-- TOO MUCH TESTOSTERONE -- FROM FIGHTING TO OVERPOPLUATION... DOESN'T TH BIBLE SAY THAT LUST WILL BE OUR EVENTUAL DEMISE EVEN IF IT IS FUN IN THE MEANTIME.?
****
THEN THE LONG TERM WEATHER--- LONG TERM THIS TIME... NEXT WEEK... BECAUSE A TRUCKLOAD OF SHINGLES HAS ARRIVED AND WE HAVE ... APPARENTLY .. A COUPLE DAYS OF WARMER ( NOT FREEZING) WEATEHR COMING.. IT WILL BE ALOT EASIRE ON EVERYBIDY IF WE CAN GET A CONGA LINE GOINF WITH SHINGLES -- LIFT-- HAUL-- PLACE NAIL BEFORE JACKS FINGERES FALL OFF..
RYAN WILL BE A LARGE PART OF THIS PROCESS... IF NEEDED, I COULD WORK FROM THE HEATED CAB OF THE TRACTOR----
*****
TODAY IS NUTTY PROFESSOR DAY... I PLAN, IF I CAN GET THE STUFF TOGETEHRE... HOW TO GET A WIRE THRU A PIPE UNDERGROUND... NEEDING A HAIR BLOWER AND SMALL VACUMM-- MAYBE EVEN A ABIG VACUUM-- WE USED TO HAVE ALOT OF SMALL VACS-- BECAUSE EVERY ORVEK CAME WITH A SMALL ONE... BUT THOSE ARE ALL GONE NOW-- AFTER THAT--- I WENT THRU A SHOP VAC PHASE OF FARM MANAGEMENT-- AND TO THIS DAY, I DO ENJOY BUYING SMALL SHOP VACS-- THEY LOOK SOO HANDY....... ALONG WITH EATING TOO MUCH WHIPPED CREAM IT IS SOMETHING I STRUGGLE TO CONTROLLL.

RUNNING THRU THE STEVES....
STEVE #4( MEATCUTTING STEVE WITH WHOM I HAVE A WEIGHT LOSS BET...) -- I FOUND A SECRET TO WEIGHT LOSS- DON'T EAT !! I HAD A BUNCH OF ERRANDE TO DO YESTERDAY AND ATE AN APPLE FOR LUNCH , AND LOST 4 POUNDS.... 2 MORE DAYS AND 2 MORE APPLES AND YOU WILLL NEVER CATCH ME.
*******
W/R/T/ STEVE #1--- I WENT OUT ONTHE INTERNET TO FIND HIS STREET ADDRESS TO SEND A CALENDAR AND WAS SHOCKED TO SEE IT SAID HE IS 80 YEARS OLD. I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT HAPPENED... IN MY MIND HE IS STILL ABOUT 18
*****
W/R/T STEVE #2-- I TOOK 5 OF THE PUZZLES TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT YESTERDAY AND ONE OF THE FIREMEN TOLD ME HE WAS A FRIEND OF STEVE AND CHARLIE'S--- I WAS BACK IN THE CAR DRIVING BEFORE I COULD FIGURE OUT WHO CHARLIE WAS.. ( STEVE'S SERVICE DOG-- OURS)
*****
I SENT A BUNCH OF CALENDARS TO PURINA--- IT IS A THING OF BEAUTY-- AGAIN WILLIAM DID A WONDERFUL JOB WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHY--- HE IS AN ARTIST... AND KITTY WHO KEEPS US ALL ORGANIZED TO THE HILT !
WE HAVE A GOOD TEAM--- I WONDER IF ...... PURINA????? WE COULD DO THAT... ESPECIALLY WITH MEGAN, COLLEEN , JANINE, AND MAYBE OSCAR... THERE IS NOTHING WE COULD NOT DO.. AND A CALENDAR FOR PURINA MIGHT NOT BE ALL DOGS- CERTAINLY NOT ALL DANES...
I SAY JANINE BECAUSE OF HER VAST EXPERIENCE CHASING LOOSE ANIMALS THRU CITY STREETS. THERE IS NONE BETTER.
THERE IS A DETERMINATION WITH THAT GROUP OF CALENDAR MAKERS-- THE " WE CAN AND WE WILL"--- ATTITUDE GETS US A LONG WAY.
***
I SUPPOSE THAT IS TRUE WITH ALOT OF THINGS.
