Good Saturday Morn mine waltripines,
MUGGY is probably the best way to describe today...just got back from morning patrol with Huckleberry Hound and Deputy Dog...They scared up a flock of ducks down at cole creek...could two ducks constitute a flock??? Well, for them ol boys, it was a flock...saw a plethora of turtles getting their mornin sun...them ol boys stay hot and muggy all the time dont they...are turtles cold blooded or hot...I'm sorry Mr Clausen, I musta been asleep during that lecture...I just cant remember...really hasnt been top on my list of things to remember...where are my glasses, where is that ringing coming from, is at the top...then, "where is my cell phone"?
I knoticed (notice the K?) that the sun has started peeking through the southern winders (east texas for window)...can old man winter be far behind??? Well, down here, that ol boy is still asleep...probably wont rear his head till February, and then for only a day and a half...he was totally absent last year...dont think it got below 40 last year, did it? Wonder why they call it "old man winter"? Why not "old lady winter"??? They call it "Mother Nature"... I have seen a few winters with a touch of PMS...not many, but a few...(PMS=pretty mean stuff)...
Wigwam! ! ! ! Thats the other name for Teepee...maybe thats what that tourist court down 59 was called...hmmm, gonna bug me till it doesnt anymore...Hey BJ, how you like San Angelo??? I hear tell it is real nice...dont recollect ever traveling there, but always wanted to...did visit StephenVille and Dublin...went to the Dr Pepper factory there...Stephenville is where most of the rodeo cowboys are from...and south america...dont know why I threw that in, but there it is...
Maybe someday, you can make it this far south and we can visit...I have stayed in a few Best Western Inns, and must say my stay was fine...In fact, stayed at a Best Western Inn somewhere in Kentucky on my sojourn to Washington, DC this past Memorial day...Hmmm, maybe it was West Virginia!!!! Man, that just frosts me, not being able to remember that...I remember, they were extremely nice, even with a hotel and lobby, and parking lot full of bikers...the manager even gave us all two rubber ducks...one with a black leather looking jacket, (probably just plastic) and the other, your standard little yellow rubber duck...now wasnt that nice? Plus, they had free breakfast, and it was right tasty too...lots o fare to choose from also...
This was the one next to the RR tracks that we had to sign a waiver for...I wrote about it after my trip...never did see or hear that train...kinda disappointed me...I have lived within two blocks of RR tracks my entire life, well, cept for the time I was in the Navy...didnt have no trains in the pacific...no trains on any of the islands...Austrailia had trains, and a smaller gauge than what we have here in America...dont know why, dont care either...
Hey WTL, where is Burnsville, Minnesooota??? The Stauer watch company is there...could you go check it out for me? My American Legion magazine always has an ad for Stauer watches...the one they are advertising this month, is the COLOSSUS HYBRID DIGITAL/ANALOG WATCH...MSRP 395.00..but now, one time only 49.00...sounds kinda funny to me...either the watch is worth 400 dollars, or 50 dollars, which is it??? How can they sell a 400 dollar watch for 50 dollars??? sounds kinda fishy to me...and since you fish alot, I figgered youd know! ! ! ! !
I like the watches they advertise, but really dont want one. I can tell time, if I have my glasses on...but I generally dont care what time it is...fortunately I'm not taking meds, and dont watch TV, have no favorite show at all..dont like ANY OF EM!!! That one about the Iron Workers on the weather channel??? I was one, and there was no way a company would let a film crew disrupt his workers...there was none of the commraderie that they show... My dad and his brothers and their dad would be rollling their eyes and hootin and hollarin if they saw it today...
There's "storage wars", "food wars", "fashion wars", "whale wars" "ice truckin" "frozen planes" trappers, survivors, gold mining, auction houses...lord, a plethora of things I just dont want to know about...sounds to me like the "imagination industry, has gotten lazy, and doesnt want to put forth any effort at all...I havent seen any shows on "the phone man wars" , or "THE AIRCONDITIONING MEN" ..."the electrician wars" ...how about a show about me???? "MR WORK AROUND THE HOUSE MAN..WARS" ...
Where's Ed Sullivan when you need him??? Sid Ceasar??? Doris Day? Dean Martin?...one of the best shows ever, was "The Johnny Carson Show"...Now, we get to see snippets of the Ed Sullivan show or some other variety show, on channel 8, but if we want to watch the whole thing, we got to send 300 dollars for the "big package" and we get the DVDs and the CDs and a tote bag, and a plethora of crap...last time I joined channel 8 whiners, I wanted whatever they were hawkin at the time, and what did I get??? a PETER PAUL AND MARY ALBUM...thats what...the next year I signed up again for something entirely, and what did I get,???
TWO PETER PAUL AND MARY ALBUMS, exactly the same as I got the year before...
I tried to call em and tell em about it, but they just didnt want to deal with it...now, I like Peter Paul and Mary, but not to have three albums exactly alike...I guess they wanted to make sure I had one to poop on and one to cover it up with, and a spare...hey, there's an idear, "THE PETER PAUL AND MARY ALBUM WARS"...
Got a plethora of things I should be doing, more so than tippy typing on this computer, but none of em as much fun...besides, the works not going anywhere,and I worked my buns off all week anyhow, so I deserve some personal time...I already fixed breakfast for the crew, breakfast tacos. HMMMMMM HMMMM HMMMM they are soooooo good. The little woman is at the Little country church in the city, on a "clean the sanctuary" day...yup gonna be a huge crowd there...of 6...the pastor, Diane and the choir, and her mom and dad...
I think I'd rather the sanctuary clean my mind, than me clean the sanctuary...Hey, hear that??? its the 11 am freight...headin north...or maybe south...cant really tell, cause Big Oliver has his head laying on the keyboard, and is purring like a freight train...that ol boy is something...
My ears have decided to just quit workin...almost stone deaf now...been trying to learn sign language, it's either that, or carry one of those "etcha sketch" things around to communicate with...
I got into the American Sign Language website, and they show you a bunch of phrases words and letters...
I'm a slow learner though...or maybe it's just a slow rememberer...I do know a couple of em, and here's one...see that? that means "apple"...and here's another...that one was "Candy"...oh, and here is "Good", you watchin???? here is "Goodnight"...I did those pretty good dont you think? Those would be right handy, whenever I wanted a candy apple to eat, and to go to sleep...well, I'm working on others, like "where's the bathroom"??? and "how do I get there from here" and the ever helpful, "have you seen my cell phone"???
Ok, guess I'll sign off for now...dont know the finger positioning for that one, just maybe...GOODBYE???
Keep the sun at your six and ride boldly ride...
your frien and brethern beaucephus DOD...DEAF...DUMB AND BLIND GUY...cant play pinball worth squat either...
