Cruise missiles to Ukraine

 Ukraine needs to be able to retaliate.  A cruise missile to the Kremlin would do it--NON-Nuclear, though!

I've used them before, but this Seresto Sux!

As do, in this instance, WALMART, and BAYER.  Sorry, guys, but your ad, on the can-at that, was incorrect.  8 months?  Not even 5!

Just "Walkin'"

Well, I started out to make a post and then decided to add onto it, and this GD program deleded everything.  Shi--y program!

Let me try again!

My initial post, which this damn program deleted, spoke of the song "Just walkin' in the rain" and elucidated just a bit,  I guess what I need to do is prepare my entry separately, then add it here. And instead of adding anythng later, I will rewirte, then repost.  Damn program!

Oh, well, here goes again:

"Just walkin' in the rain, Gettin' soakin' wet, Hopin' things would change, Just-a tryin' to forget" is the first line of an old song, a very good old song, that I remember from way back, say in the fifties of our last century in my book, or so I think, and it's well worth anyone taking a look.  Pretty sure it can be found with a google search.  No matter, though, the reason for even bringing it up is I tried, unsuccessfully, to get my dog Stela to go out back this morning to do what we all usually need to do on first getting up.  Well that is, of course, what most of us need to do.  But would she do what I was suggesting to do?  NO!  Oh well, after about a half hour of suggesting to her that she would be more comfortable after going out back, and noticing that the rain had let up considerably, I put on my jacket and got the leash.  This was something she obviously wanted me to do.

Soon we were doing our thing on our city streets adjacent to our house.  And, the needed squat was made, and shortly tereafter, a well needed daily discharge was also made.  As I collected that very fertile item from a neighbor's yard, I thought about what the problem might have been.  Maybe my trusty accomplice was thinking a bit beyond my thoughts.  Maybe she was thinking, "What if I were to want to chase a squirrel in our back yard and on so doing were to step into "THAT?"

Well, dear dog, perhaps if that was what your thinking was, perhaps waiting till we were taking our walk was a very good idea!

 

Sweet Violets

Today, around noonish, I took my trusty doggie on one of our usual walks around the neighborhood. She is one to look around as we walk and while approaching Azalea Place, she walked in a ditch at the side of the road and as I watched I saw a beautiful little flower! Which brought on an old tune which I hadn't even thought about--much less sung--in a long, long time--but today? That's just what I did! See if you remember the tune: The words of the song are below! Love it! . . There once was a farmer who took a young miss, In back of his barn where he gave her a lecture On chickens and horses and eggs, And told her that she had such beautiful manners That suited a girl of her charms, A girl he could take in his washing and ironing And then if she did, they could get married and raise lots of: . . Sweet vi-o-lets! Sweeter than all the roses! Covered all over from head to toe, Covered all over with Sweet vi-o-lets...! . . Think I'll have to tune up the old guitar and see about making another entry in my singing section (https://www.youtube.com/@StephenVGeddes). Such a neat old tune!

Just to decide?

I have several possibilities for type settings:  this is "Normal."

This, on the other hand, is "Medium."

And this, is "Large."

OK:  WHICH TO USE?

Will have to look at the post!

And then will select!

Washington Week

Watching "Washington Week" this morning, I'm seeing a long conversation about "Trumpism." Well, I guess there are still quite a few people out there who think he was a pretty good president. And, there are still quite a few who think he wasn't--which is where I stand. While there are quite a few things that he did that I would agree with, there are quite a few things about him and what he did or didn't do, as well as quite a few things about what and who he is that I find unpresidential, to say the least. Why people "like" him is not something I need to consider. He is not very likable as a person or as a leader, not to me anyway. I think the best thing for him (and for America) would be for him to return to Maralago and do his thing there, whatever that might be. The truth is, anything he might do or say today has no relevance to me anymore than anything any street bum (well, any rich street bum, anyway) might say or do. He needs to go away and stay away. Period.

Take a look!!! This is fantastic!!!
