Now you have got to figure that if you have stuff in boxes that you haven't seen or even thought about in years, it must be stuff you really don't need. But just pull it out and look at it, and it suddenly becomes something you just can't part with. I saved a whole box of school papers, notebooks, magazines and trinkets that were out in my shed. As I look through the stuff I am transported back in time.--There is a notebook from an old high school English class. Now I remember that in this class... Sign in to see full entry.

BOND, JAMES BOND...BLONDE?
The newest actor to play super spy James Bond is a guy I never heard of. Pictures of him make him look like he has been sucking on a lemon. He probably thinks he is looking mysterious. To me he just looks like he is about to be sick. Of course a lot of people don't like the fact that this guy is Blonde. "Why was James Bond staring at the orange juice? Because it said, "concentrate." (a dumb blonde joke) Now you can substitute "James Bond" for the blonde in all of those jokes. Humm...maybe that... Sign in to see full entry.

THEY'RE AT IT AGAIN!
I caught them this morning. One after the other just waiting in line. I ran and got the camera just in time to catch these two. Cute arent they? In case you can't tell they are robins. Thanks for looking in. Have a great evening/night. Sign in to see full entry.

BUZZ!
Buzz...a bug the size of a small air craft flew by me. I was asleep in my chair but the loud Buzz woke me. I looked around but didn't see anything. So I closed my eyes to try and finish the dream I was having. That was not to be. BUZZ! It flew past again. This time I caught a glimpse of it.Whew, it was only the size of a VW mini bus. It landed on the light fixture. I swear that it seemed as if the light stared swaying from the impact! I looked around for a fly swatter. It was bigger than a fly,... Sign in to see full entry.

FERNS AND OTHER HOUSE PLANTS!
I really don't know a whole lot about ferns. I know they are plants, also if you look cross-eyed at one it will die. I don't have one, in spite of the fact that I have lots of other plants outside and also on my sunporch. I even have a poinsettia that has survived two Christmases! I'm not sure how it survived. But I am just going to leave it where it is and water it every so often. It seems happy where it is and with the water so I am not going to rock the boat. It seems like most house plants...

CAN YOU SEE IT?
I let Bo out this morning and he started barking! I looked out and at first I didn't see what he was barking at. Then I spotted it. Can you see it? Oh Bo is the little brown spec at the bottom in the middle. Thanks for stopping in! Have a great Saturday! Sign in to see full entry.

THE MONA LISA IS...WHAT?
I just read about the latest scientific discovery in the art world. They think that Mona Lisa (aka) La Gioconda...was pregnant! It has to do with something she was/is wearing that you can't really see with the naked eye. But with eyes dressed using 3-D imaging and lasers and who knows what else they detected a gauze-like veil that she was wearing. Then since that type of 'veil' was worn by pregnant women at the time of the sitting they decided --She's pregnant!!! That still doesn't explain her... Sign in to see full entry.

I FORGET?
Do you ever know that you know something, but you just can't think of it? The answer is locked away in your brain and can only be coaxed loose when you don't need it any more! It happens a lot when you have studied for a test then you just freeze up. Sort of like brain freeze except you don't get to eat any ice cream. I sort of had this happened the other night. I was watching a fairly recent movie, "Yours, Mine, and Ours." Now this one is a remake. The first one stared Lucille Ball and Henry... Sign in to see full entry.

RING OR NO RING?
Now you might think that this post is about jewelry. It isn't. It's about the ring tone of my home phone. I like that show "Deal Or No Deal" but every time that banker rings the phone, I jump thinking my phone is ringing! It's not. It is that mean banker calling "Howie," to offer the player some money for a briefcase. The I'll settle down and watch the show. Now I know it can't be my phone because I got a new phone that doesn't sound like that. But still I'll be watching, the banker rings the... Sign in to see full entry.

STINKY GARBAGE DISPOSAL?
The only garbage disposal I ever saw that really got rid of garbage was on the "Flintstones." They had a pre-historic dinosaur-pig under the kitchen sink that ate up everything they dumped in the sink. In the real world the garbage disposal jams if your water is too hard. OK. It's not that bad, but I don't put anything tougher than eggshells down mine. Now the one I have is rather new. It has never been jammed with a knife or fork. It has even eaten a sponge, but that didn't seem to harm it. I... Sign in to see full entry.
