Good morning!

A devastating ecological disaster is overtaking the Gulf Coast area. Some criticism is being aimed at the O administration for its slow response, but ultimately it'll be the oil and energy industry, and us, the consumers, which will bear the weight of government control to come, I fear.

Rahm Emmanuel's rule to never waste a good crisis comes to mind once again.

Strange, not much news here this morning with the oil spill. reckon the ‘officials’ are accessing, heck, just look south and say OH (DLRP)!

SIL when he gets back from camping is going to finish the fence about the back yard and pool then put a similar one around my porch on my shack with a gate and handrail (hurts my feeling but I need it every once in a while), Now I am fighting with the animals whern feeding, chickens try to eat horse food with their corn, horses eats corn, dog food,
horse food, scraps, you name it. Horses bigger than dogs, bigger than chickens so, goes life on my ‘planttion’.

Years ago, I had some mighty strange animal pets....although I had no chickens, the cats would come to eat when I called "chicky, chicky".

My 2 dogs would come to eat when I called "kitty, kitty". LOL

Well, just might have to start using a cane when walking, I don't think so but am overruled. Not all the time, just on occasion when I have to.

Hello, Hello!

the “big storm” was not much here.. hardly wet the surface.

busy day. May Pole party (my first).. with same group gathering to watch Derby.

Cavalier’s tonight at the Q. Am lucky to have an invite.. tickets hard to get & big $$$$. Just love pro sports & even though Cleveland seems to never do well, do enjoy!

busy with photo work, dogs, mom, life..

starting to plan a couple trips for this summer..

One south to maybe see JTill, Toby, Jemian, Onxy???

and a northern one to see gee, Mozart lover, Northern yankee

the ideal would be a lunch gathering with all somewhere neutral

also would like to get EAST to see my friend Bill (wheelbarrow) now in group home in NJ..

maybe link up with neets, mware and any one else.

due to constraints with mom would have “QUICK TRIPS” in each case

Certainly if you get this far north it would be an honor to meet up ya'all!

Just finished mowing the lawn. First of the season. It always is great to smell that first cut grass. One of the simpler pleasures of life.

Was very concerned, we talked some old times but, I had to go to start doing nothing some more. One heck of a honest man.

I see BamBam going to La tomorrow, he will wear his white robe, walk to the waters edge, raise both arms into the air, palms up and chant the ‘go away chant in BamBm talk, no transalation can be found of this chat.

Nary a word said about him being late to remark on the spill, W was crusified.

Sprinkles, wind bowing hard FROM the north to south, headed towards to Gulf. What a shame, I understand there was mo cutoff value on the pipe at the bottom of the well but, no law saying they had to have one, big ole mistake.
I have faith they will come up with something but, only TWO air force planes spraying the spill? We have Biloxi AFB here with bunches of the transports parked there plus the air National Guard here, only takes a little to put the collapsible tanks and the sprayer on, if the spray works, put all we have into it.

I still think there’s a skunk in the oil well. Something doesn’t smell right.

sometimes if you wonder that not all is done to contain this oil slick because of certain political agendas?
