May 28, 2011


OLIVE IS SOUNDING PREGNANT--
SHE IS NOT EATING BREAKFAST AND HAS TRAINED PRISCILLA TO "DRESS UP" HER DINNER
SOUNDS PROMISING-
 
NOTHING DEFINITE ABOUT PISTOL--
AND WE NEVER DID SEE ANY SWIMMERS - DEAD OR ALIVE FROM JASPER-- BUT THAT COULD BE MICROSCOPE OPERATOR TROUBLE--- EVERYTHING ABOUT JASPER IS NORMAL--
 
I NOW HAVE A CARD IN FRONT OF ME 
 
PISTOL 4/17   AI  -- BOBBY--- FOR    JUNE  20-ISH
OLIVE 4/23-4/25 -- BUMPY---  JUNE 25 ISH
CHAOS 5/23-5/25-- JASPER ---  END OF JULY
 
THEY COULD ALL... OR NONE....
 
IN ANY CASE.... TODAY I HOPE TO GET INSPIRED ABOUT THE BACK DECK...  WE NEED DOUBLE ACCESS AND SHOULD RE-DO THAT OVERHEAD CANOPY BEFORE IT FALLS DOWN ANYWAY.
 
WE HAVE ENOUGH 2X4'S FROM KRISTEN'S HOUSE CONSTRUCTION ( THEY AREN'T STRAIGHT ENOUGH FOR THEM--- BUT HERE....PERFECT. 
 
THEN MAYBE I WOULD NOT HAVE TO WASH THE FLOOR EVERY DAY.
 
BOBBY HAS MOVED IN- AND IS A VERY AGREEABLE HOUSE GUEST- AWFULLY STRONG WHEN HE LANDS IN YOUR LAP--- BUT HIS GENERIC MANNERS ARE FINE.  ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE WHITE BUCKETS ON EVERY CORNER TO DEFLECT HIS AIM... HE SEEMS TO HAVE LOST INTEREST IN MARKING  THE VACUUM CLEANER.   BLESS HIM
 
DIDI AND I HAD A CONVERSATION  ABOUT TRUCKS THAT PASS ON HTE LEFT... BUD DROVE TO MY DR APT SO I HAD A CHANCE TO TALK TO HER--- ON THE WAY HOME BUD DROVE IN THE  RIGHT LANE AT ABOUT 50 MPH  SO TRUCKS WOULD PASS--- AND BY THE TIME WE GOT TO TOPSFIELD-- HE WAQS ALMOST BORED..  GOOD DOG.
 
BUD ALSO TOOK THE DASHBOARD OF THE COA VAN APART- AND THINKS HE HAS LOCATED THE PROBLEM
CERTAINILY TO TURN THE RADIO AND A/C ON-- YOU WHACK THE STEERING POST.
AN IMPERFECT METHOD-- SO WE LEFT IT IN PIECES WAITING FOR THE NEXT BUNCH OF WOULD BE REPAIR CREW TO HAVE A GO AT IT.  MAYBE SUNDAY...
******************
WE HAVE A COUPLE INTERESTING INQUIRYS- ONE MAY SHOW UP EITHER SUNDAY OR MONDAY
 
THEY HAVE AN AUTISTIC KID AND A WONDERFUL 4 YEAR OLD DANE....  IF WE CAN GET IT THRU THE ADI TEST... I HAVE NO QUALMS ABOUT CERTIFYING IT.
 
I FIGURE EVERY DANE IN THE NORTH EAST  WILL BE ASSUMED TO BE OURS--- SO BEST WE BE SURE TO HELP THEM SO IT BEHAVES PROPERLY.
*****************
 
WE WILL BE STEWING BOTH SUNDAY AND MONDAY-
 
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A HOLIDAY AROUND HERE ANYWAY.  SO ANY ONE WHO WANTS TO COME AND BRING FOOD-- THERE WILL PROBABLY BE A FEW AROUND HERE TO EAT IT.
 
 (HAVE I GOT A GOOD THING GOING !!!-- THE NORMAL SUNDAY STEW HAS ENOUGH  LEFTOVERS TO GET US THRU TIL WEDNESDAY-- US BEING TOM AND I  PLUS THERESA MEGAN AND ANYONE ELSE AROUND... "OPEN HOUSE?  NO.. OPEN ICEBOX)
 
AND--- WAIT TIL YOU CHECK ON MY MOSQUITO CATCHING DEVICE--
A $19 WINDOW FAN WITH $3 WORTH OF NETTING---
I WISHIT WAS PATENTABLE--- IT REALLY WORKS-
PART OF THE SYSTEM IS THAT THE DOG HOUSE AND DOGS ATTRACT THE BUGS AND THE FAN BLOWS THEM OUT.  
 
  2 HAVE  BEEN UP 24 HOURS AND WE HAVE ABOUT 1/4 A CUP OF MOSQUITOS IN EACH ONE   1/4 CUP IS A HUGE NUMBER OF MOSQUITOS
 
MAYBE SOMEONE WITH A CAMERA CAN TAKE A PICTURE --  I TESTED THIS WITH THE $500 MOSQUITO MAQGNET-- AND THERE IS NO CONTEST-- AND IN MY HISTORY I HAVE TRIED ALL KINDS OF ZAPPERS ETC
THOSE ZAPPEWRS ARE LIKE THE ONE ARM BAND=ITS IN VEGAS--- OR THE YUPPY PUPPY-- THE ZAP NOISE IS REWARDING--
LIKE THE COIN IN VEGAS OR THE DOG TREAT IN THE TIN PAN  "WE GOT ONE!!!"
BUT IT HARDLYU ADDRESSES TH E PROBLEM 
 
WE SHOULD PUT THE PHOTO'S ONLINE AND ASK FOR DONATIONS WHEN THEY FIND IT WORKS
 
WE CAN'T GET IN TO MY "VACUUM THE LAWN BEFORE THE BARBEQUE" CONCEPT-- THE BUGS ARE IN THE GRASS-- WHY CAN'T WE DESIGN  A FAN TO PULL THEM INTO A NET???
 
I COULD GO ON AND ON...
 
BUT I BETTER GET HAMMERING--- OR AT LEAST THINKING. ABOUT IT.
