i've worked in construction and Mom was in the trucking industry for 30yrs so i've heard it and probably said it but i also can not swear in polite company. around here we are pretty much "think it and say it" sorts of people.

yes! :) it's like asking me what my favorite food is or favorite music, or favorite song from my favorite band or ... it changes with mood and context. five minutes after asking me a while ago if i'd found any treasures yet i found another Purple Dove outcross that is what i've wanted to see...

yes :) (funny as now Roundabout is playing in my head)

"The earliest known music is recorded in cuneiform script on clay tablets, specifically the "Hurrian Hymn No. 6," which dates back to around 1400 BC. This hymn was discovered in the ancient city of Ugarit, located in present-day Syria." "Kids these days!" -- olde guy 3500 yrs ago (i've...

oh yes! a symbol of the corruption of youth!

still shelling beans, down to the last few boxes... finding some fun ones as usual. :) all boxes from the same garden. not expecting too many surprises but we'll see...

we had one of those wind-up 78s which worked, then there were 33s and 45s and vinyls instead of the harder ones that were made of out something else that was in those 78s. i never have messed with the wire spools or wax cylinders. computers at least make it possible to store the information in...

ok! but it is still funny!

oh dear are you in trouble. :) :) :) in a good way. :)

all it missed out on was the afterburn...

when we grew them (years ago) Mom didn't like them either because she's not a fall colors sort of person. i think they're purty!

i'm laughing that @baymule can't say penis but can deal with all the rest of it.

yeah, if she had more bottle babies she'd have to grow more arms like an octopus!

super cold means the snow is powder which doesn't work so well for building snowmen or snowforts unless you add water which is a miserable experience in the super cold winter weather, but having been up north at the university where Winter Carnival was a thing i got to see and experience a lot...

in the future they'll understand the dead battery part but will be scratching their head about the clutch... when driving in snow i much prefer a standard transmission. it's so much more fun, but also easier to get unstuck with a clutch...

it started off with foggy weather this morning but it cleared up and was fairly warm and not too windy which means i got out for a walk. it has probably been 6 months or longer since i managed to do that. :) a quick 1 mile walk to the corner and back. there was plenty of water running off...

we get so much heavy fogs and dews here. it's been over 20yrs of gardening and tomatoes here and no signs it is getting worse, just looks bad at the end of the season. last year was a better year in looks because we had such extended dry spells, but that still doesn't remove the evening heavy...

yes, whatever it is that gets the tomatoes here i did try all sorts of things and nothing made much difference other than giving the plants a lot more space, but in the end it does still take them out eventually. my continued growing of them works because by the time the blight gets way too bad...

foggy this morning in parts, going to continue to be warm for a few more days before the cold returns.

i used to have three eight foot shelves with lights on them from above, plus the floor in front of the bottom shelf all full of house plants and a few terrariums, but this was many years ago before i went off to college. i took a few plants with me and kept hauling them around from place to...
