THURSDAY, MAY 15
RAIN, GLORIOUS RAIN!


It began raining early this morning.  It has rained all day.  I went in for a color.  Leroy is still sick.  Margaret ended up doing a quick shampoo.  Everyone going into their saloon was happy!  It was like a holiday.  “Happy Rainy Day”!  It is the first real moisture we’ve had here since January.  Things were getting terribly dry to the point of danger – Extreme Fire Hazard.  This will help us crawl through until the monsoons begin on the 4th of July.  (Every year the rains start on the 4th of July – ...   more »

WEDNESDAY, MAY 14

I don’t know when I have been so angry while blogging.  What Mark Levin did today on his radio show was the most deplorable thing I’ve heard for a long time.  Right now I’m just trying to cool off before I say something I am going to regret.   

My frustration level is reaching the boiling point.  The cats are driving me crazy.  Rumsfeld is acting like the little monster he is.  Then I can’t send out my email – or maybe I am and there are a few poor souls who will be receiving a dozen ...   more »

CONGRATS TO JOHN STEPHENSON OF STOP THE ACLU!
 Reagan Dailene Stephenson was born on May 12, 2008. She weighed 8 lbs and 4 ounces. She is 21 inches long.

There will be no Thursday Thirteen this week.  I’m heading to Las Cruces with the parents tomorrow.  My mother has two different appointments. With luck we can do something about her toes.  When she was given a shot to help revive her after hear heart failure, it damaged the nerves in one leg.  She has a miserable time with the toes on her right foot curling. It ...   more »

I am still down with the flu.  It's not much fun, that's for sure. Rumsfeld has been enjoying the fact that he has more snuggle time. 
An unassisted Triple Play!
Guacamole and the science of salsa!
That bright light that streaked through the NM sky the other night, giving visions of alien invasions was just a meteor.

Lindsey will introduce the bill for gas tax relief.

FRIDAY, MAY 9

NOTE:  I am having problems with Blog Harbor and posting.  I’ve been trying for about 2 hours to get something to “take”.

I’m listening to the Met (Live) do MacBeth, one of my favorites. Carlos Alverez, doing MacBeth sucks. He’s okay, but he’s no Sherrill Milnes.   Jimmy is incredible though.  I saw a performance there, years ago, where I was sitting front row, two seats to the right of Jimmy.  During the ghosts of Scotland past scene, they both became ‘tickled’.  It was so much fun watching them keep from smiling.  Something amusing happened with one of ...   more »

THURSDAY, MAY 8

First up, Glenn Chang is graduating from New Mexico State on Saturday!  Congrats to he and his wonderful parents.  Glenn was telling me one of his classes was using The Pink Flamingo as part of their discussions.  He said everyone in the class but he and one other person were liberals.  It's not what they say about you, but that they are talking about you!

My blogging is “lite” today.  I managed to sleep (a little).  This is getting funny now.  I’m just not quite sure what a person must do to get a decent night’s sleep.  ...   more »

WEDNESDAY, MAY 7

Big Mac is taking Manhattan tonight to raise $7 million!  I HOPE! If he did not have my vote, he would with this!

Nothing is more annoying than either a paper cut or a head cold.  I have the latter.  I had no sleep at all last night.  I know one thing, I've proven that Air-Bourn really works.  I quit using it about a month ago.  This is the first cold /flu I've had in at least 2 years.  I've been using the product religiously during that time.

Sally Vee is pinch hitting tonight with a ...   more »

SHOULD WE CARE?
If I had a child (and thank goodness I DO NOT) I would not allow them to consume hormone treated anything.  I have a tendency to use organic when I think about it, but then we’re just dealing with me.  I’m not all that worried about what I consume at home.  If I’m cooking it, there’s a 90% chance it will not be edible and I’ll end up throwing it out.  I HATE COOKING!  

Seriously, when it comes to children, I don’t think I would do anything but organic, and then would want to trace where ...   more »

A PINK FLAMINGO RETRACTION: 
Boy Was I Wrong!

From what I have been reading, the vaccine to the HPV virus, that they want to give to girls throughout the country (and I had agreed) is a very dangerous drug. Like I said, I’m sure glad I don’t have kids. I would have messed this one up, big time.

After a comment today, I checked out plant toxicity.  What we have here is a Pigmy Date Palm, which is not toxic.

I have the flu.  Let's just admit it and deal.  This afternoon I went back ...   more »

NEW HOMELAND SECURITY RECOMMENDATIONS
During the deadly flu pandemic the accompanied the Spanish Flu after World War I, actual numbers of those who died are still not known.  My grandfather Froehlich was almost a statistic.  Fortunately, my grandfather had a remarkable relationship with the Lord and a cast iron constitution.  He was in the Army at the time, having recently graduated from the University of Maryland.  Like just about everyone else in the ward, he was simply wheeled outside to die.  He started praying and survived.  According to family stories my grandfather was never sick another day of ...   more »

SATURDAY, MAY 3

Sometimes Miss Beverly Sills is just plain cute.  The worst of it is the little stinker knows she is cute.  Then, there are times (most of the time) she is so darn naughty, it is still cute!  Today has been one of those days.  I pulled her out of the big jade plant 3 times.  The third time she decided to try and bit me.  That did not work.  She’s been running around the condo like a critter on jet fuel.  Okay it’s cute.

FRIDAY, MAY 2


As I mentioned in an earlier post, the good people at the Cat Blogsphere are helping a fellow cat-blogger who was the victim of a tragic fire.  They’ve also done something nice, but I don’t now if I can mention it.  Let’s just say ML proves my theory about Episcopalians being good people!

This Episcopalian spent the afternoon trying to shake down local business owners – for gift certificates for the annual church raffle.  It’s for a good cause, so what the heck.  Fortunately everyone knows the money goes back into the community to various charities so ...   more »
View Article  Another China Syndrome Looming?
BABIES ARE DYING

It is called Enterovirus 71 (EV71)  So far a few cases have emerged in Malaysia.  There are a number of cases in Singapore and quite a few in China.  One of the big problems is the fact that we have no idea how serious the disease actually is.  We're dealing with China, remember? To date (allegedly) 21 young children have died and around 3,000 others have come down with the intestinal virus known locally as Hand, foot, and mouth disease.  (It is not related to the traditional hoof & mouth disease).  The World Health Organization is worried ...   more »
