Rumsy the Poo and the Windy Day
by
SJ Reidhead
on April 30, 2008 09:22PM (MDT)
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30 We’ve had worse days, but this one is in the top five since I’ve lived here. This morning I was going to put it as the 3rd worst windy day, but I think I will put it at #5. We are expecting a monster day tomorrow. Fed Ex came by this morning. I thought the poor woman was going to end up with her arm caught in the door it was blowing so bad. It was miserable. Rumsfeld had a rough day. He went downstairs to the bedroom with me this evening. Doc trapped him in the ... more » Tuesday, April 29
Long Day, No Sleep

TUESDAY, APRIL 29 I think the title just about says it all. I think I had 4 hours sleep last night. Right about now I can barely keep my eyes open. I’ve been tweaking the blog again. Got a few helpful hints on how to make the basted site meter work. We shall see. What’s the fun of knowing how Absinthe works? The Father of LSD is dead – at age 102.

Blog Harbor Down for About 90 Minutes This Evening
by

on April 28, 2008 10:32PM (MDT)
MONDAY, APRIL 28 Everything is fine, now. I still think they are one of the better blog hosts. The downtime is so very low. Site Meter is still not recording hits for The Pink Flamingo. I’m serious. According to them, I’ve not had a hit in months. I’ve tried everything. Last night I imbedded the code into the CSS. Hope that helps. I don’t know what else to try. It is picking up the other things I’m using it with, but it basically REFUSES to pick up The Pink Flamingo. You look at it and think there is absolutely no ... more »
When Narcissists Attack - Part - V- The Jeremiah Wright Stuff

on April 28, 2008 07:07PM (MDT)
THE WRIGHT STUFF? THE BEGINNING OF THE END? Larry Johnson at No Quarter is heralding the End of Barack Obama. He thinks today’s debacle at the National Press Club is going to destroy Barack Obama’s chances. It isn’t going to help, that’s for sure. Johnson quotes a WPost piece: “…Speaking before an audience that included Marion Barry, Cornel West, Malik Zulu Shabazz of the New Black Panther Party and Nation of Islam official Jamil Muhammad, Wright praised Louis Farrakhan, defended the view that Zionism is racism, accused the United States of terrorism, repeated his view that the government created ... more »

So Many Topics, So Little Time
by

on April 27, 2008 09:47PM (MDT)
SUNDAY, APRIL 27 There are days when I can find nothing to write about. This is not one of those days. I emailed Sally Vee a little while ago and mentioned I just did not know where to start. I thought about doing another Obama-O-Rama, but I realize I have one more day to go in my self-enforced Obama boycott. Race 42008 has picked upon the fact that he may do the federal financing for the general election – you read it here a week ago! But, I’m still on the Obama-O-Rama Wagon. But, not to worry, we have (drum-roll ... more » Friday, April 25
I Don’t Even Have a Title for Today!

on April 25, 2008 09:15PM (MDT)
FRIDAY, APRIL 25 A LITTLE HOUSEKEEPING: I’ve cross-posted my video expose of the Minutemen over at The Subway Canaries. Since The Subway Canaries are on the SPLC’s blog-roll, with luck someone will pick up on the abject hatred you see in these videos. I have a Blog Critics article about Blogging John McCain. I’ve spent the day working on several detailed posts, the first of which is located right below this one. It took something like 3 hours just to format it. At least I finally feel like I’ve “caught up” for a few days. I’ll actually finish today’s ... more » Thursday, April 24
Man of Sorrows

THURSDAY, APRIL 24 It wasn’t until a few minutes ago that I understood something. I know it is shallow, but then -? I was doing something in the kitchen, exhausted, physically and emotionally. I realized I’ve been through so much 2nd hand heartache and sorrow that I just couldn’t handle any more right now. I need a break. And now you know why today is catch as catch can. Then something dawned on me. Now I understand the term ‘Man of Sorrows’. Can you imagine what Christ took upon himself? The only perfect person who ever lived took on ... more » Wednesday, April 23
Today is St. George’s Day (My Patron Saint)
by

on April 23, 2008 09:53PM (MDT)
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23 Blog Critics has just published my piece about blogging John McCain. Funny how the Lord works. Last year I realized that St. George was my patron saint through an interesting occurrence. I’ve always thought he was. My protector is the Blessed Virgin of Guadeloupe – FYI. Today Forward Day by Day highlights the verses I live by. After I read the passage, it is quite apparent that St. George is my Patron Saint. 1 Thessalonians 5:12-28. Verses 16-18 are the verses I live my life by: Tuesday, April 22
John Smoltz Is Now on the Way to the HOF!

TUESDAY, APRIL 22 John Smoltz has become only the 16th pitcher in Major League history to strike out 3000 batters. He’s now Hall of Fame bound, probably on a first ballot no less. I was wondering if something like this wasn’t going to happen. Robert Downey, Jr. has now ruined his career. He has “outed” himself as a …. Oh dear…. He is no longer a liberal!

MONDAY, APRIL 2 The wind never seems to end. We should have a break in a few days, when, allegedly, around the 1st of May, it will stop. (Maybe) Right now everyone is holding their breath with the wind and the fires. NM Fire information Right now things are bad. There is a fire near Mountainair that could be quite bad. Until the rains begin on the 4th of July, we all live in a state of unsettled calm. Medved on the economy Sunday, April 20
A Day of Password Changes, Etc.
by

on April 20, 2008 10:55PM (MDT)
SUNDAY, APRIL 20 So naturally nothing works now! It is taking twice as long to do anything because I must reload the blasted new passwords. Can I just scream now and get it over with? The really frustrating thing is the fact that I must use Ecto to publish photos for the blog. Since I changed all the pass-words the blasted Ecto doesn’t want to load on the blasted blog. I’m starting to lose patience. Ecto doesn’t want to work. I’m trying to load it with Blogger then switch it over. You would have thought posting photos would be easier ... more » Saturday, April 19
Finishing Up Early for a Change!

SATURDAY, APRIL 19 There’s not much going on. Last night I made the mistake and opened the balcony door late in the evening. (It was a bit warm). A bug flew in and ended up down in my bathroom. Someone (and we all know which little pink nose kitty) knocked my alcohol scent infuser over – spilling about a cup of flammable liquid into the bathroom carpet. Good thing it was citrus flavored. The scent was so cloying I couldn’t sleep. Finally realized if I put the towels I used to soak as much up out of the carpet as ... more » Friday, April 18

FRIDAY, APRIL
18 BREAKING NEWS: Baby Palin arrives early! The governor went into labor in Texas! She's fine. From what we've heard, the baby has come "challenges". According to one report, the little guy has Downs Syndrome. He is a beautiful little guy. If the reports are true, then I can't think of anyone who would make a better VP, someone who has chosen life! The Palin family has proven how very courageous they are - and the love they have for a beautiful new life! more » Thursday, April 17
Wind, Snow, the ER, and a Sad Event

THURSDAY, APRIL 17 I only have one post today. We spent yet another afternoon in the ER with my mother. Her heart rate was good, but her BP was high – for her. Evidently she had some sort of an attack this AM. She heads back to Las Cruces to the cardo. on Monday. Guess that means I cancel my pedicure. While she was in the ER her sister called. Mae Raines (aunt of one day HOFer Tim Raines) had a catastrophic stroke this morning. May went to work for my grandmother when I was 10 days old, and ... more » Wednesday, April 16

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16 We’ve had another obscenely windy day. I finally had to go out for diner, and for HE. Fr. Penn did the service. I had Altar Guild afterward. Wednesday night is easy. We “do dishes” then leave. There’s none of that setting up for another service, which is good. My father is now vindicated. Men are more forgetful than women. There is nothing more obnoxious than the recently converted, including moi and Mac! What a unique concept, UFO’s in New Mexico! More about Morgellons The Castle Ring Creature?

MONDAY, APRIL 14 A few minutes ago I called my father and told him I would give him ten bucks if he would take Rumsfeld off my hands this evening. The little monster somehow managed to climb up the table where I was stashing the garbage (to dump tomorrow) and pulled it down. Yep, he shredded the bag and scattered things everywhere. He and Bubbles were so naughty last night I did not get to sleep until about 6:15 this morning!

Giant Mutant Worms Caught On Film

SATURDAY, APRIL 12 You will notice the post below this one. It is totally and completely self-indulgent. The parents' house plans continue - well! They met with the draftsman this evening. The only thing changed on the bedroom wing that I designed was removing one set of doors. That's not bad. With any luck they will get the blasted thing started this year. Have you noticed how fast things are loading now? I put the site meter, TLB, and Technorati at the bottom right corner. I can't believe that's what kept things so slow. You live and learn!

on April 11, 2008 11:34PM (MDT)
FRIDAY, APRIL 11 I am only doing two posts today. I’ve spent much of the evening piddling around and making some changes. I think I solved the slow loading problems. All I did was move my TLB badge to the right column, re: Beth Cleaver’s smart advice a few months ago. Then I moved the site meter badges. I discovered my site meter was causing all the problems! I hate that thing. I’ve added a registration form, and made the RSS forms easier to find. If you have been reading TPF this evening, you may have noticed a few color ... more » Thursday, April 10

THURSDAY, APRIL 10 I can’t think of a darn thing to say this evening. I’m working on some good stuff for the weekend. Aside from the usual Barack Obama stuff, not much is going on. The wind is still making me crazy. We had a few sprinkles of rain this AM. Further up in Ruidoso IT SNOWED! Not much else to report. Oh, be sure to take the test to see what sort of a Republican you are. Much to my delight, I am an ENTERPRISER! I think you know where we are going there. I need to be at ... more »

The Wind Is Making Me Crazy!
by

on April 9, 2008 09:17PM (MDT)
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9 I’ve calculated the wind today is the 4th worst I’ve seen in 10 years of living here. The worst of it, is we get dust and dirt, but someone east of us will end up with tornados. The whole area looked overcast and foggy due to the white sand in the air. I swear the animals are crazy over it. Maybe they are still “drunk”. I allowed them to do some recreational drugs last night late. Doc is still full of C-nip (all over her hair). She is in a vile mood, which is usual when she ... | |||
