A Journal to impart knowledge and facts

July 22, 2015

I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done.

I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them.

I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC.

Thank you for reading my blog. Your story is wonderful. And to think you bypassed censorship in your own home: fabulous!

In response to "Stay on Track."

I think I need to do a survey on sexuality and gender. So many people have not had interactions with the LGBTQ community. I had a friend who was an "I for intersex" and know an "A for asexual" ... Historically there was an "E for eunuch" (and I suspect that category still exists).

So much easier to just suspend the labels and call people by their name/nickname or title: Vaughn, Officer Paula, Miss Jessica, Duck, Teacher Nessy... No one needs to inspect another person's underwear.

As for 'snowed under' ... well it's spring ... this too shall melt.

Do no harm is the best way to live.

Thanks for checking in, hope things settle down soon.

I agree with you. I think it takes a lot of faith to jump horses too! It was always something that amazed me to watch.

Snickerdoodle muffins? Send one here!

Do you serve coffee? I've only had 4 cups today. I'd be grateful for another.

I think it is more than just short supply of a virtue. I think evil is a real thing and occasionally presents its own ideas of reality. Since humans live in organic forms and have been given the ability to make choices often, we get wrapped up in our little personal worlds and don't notice evil trying to take bake what is already won. So, the battle commences again.

House Florent plays to win. As I age, I read a lot of history I proceed to think every age has seen its own share of violence. There are times when peace prevails. I hope a time like that is coming toward us.

Patience is a virtue that seems to be in short supply.

You're so right about evil raising it's head. If only saying calm down was enough.

I think we're in a similar age bracket and we have seen too much violence in our lifetime.

La Jolla Bikes and Rockin Music

Biking Yeah! My orthopedist recommends it. Heal Your Knees by Robert Klapper M.D. & Linda Huey

Two Days in the Omni Hotel should give me time to try out the exercise room and the pool. I'm not much of a swimmer but I can doggy paddle.

The story of Badfinger is a tradgety. I watched it on YouTube.Joey Molland is one of the original 4 who started BadFinger. He tours and plays their songs in the original way they were written. The original four were Pete Ham (who committed suicide), Mike Gibbins, Sam Evans and Joey Molland.
Harry Nilsson made this song: a hit.

I was playing songs from Vanilla Fudge on YouTube and lo and behold. Bang Bang started with the music from Rogers and Hammerstein's the King and I. Who can forget the songs from Vanilla fudge: Bang Bang, Ticket to Ride, She's Not There, People Get Ready. https://youtu.be/QoRz9lCPDwA https://youtu.be/QgVPnWmUqd4

The whole building was rockin off its foundations at this concert by the time Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels started singin "Devil with the Blue Dress On/ Good Golly Miss Molly. https://youtu.be/AGMJnkrAQco. I did not link to this I think I'm over the link quota. In 1964 Fredrick Long and William Stevenson wrote "Devil With a Blue Dress On, but, when it was first recorded it did not hit. Many people wrote excellent dancing music but, often someone would come along and push it up the top 10 list with a variation of the beat, guitar or drumming arrangements.

This was a real educational visit to San Diego, California.

I need a rest good thing we are in the hotel for an extra day. All the group is tired tonight. Even Blue Moon and Sandra Lyn could ride the bikes.Maybe they ride at home. Electric bikes are great. What a great tour even the seals were waving as we rode by.

See Ya!
