01:24 pm - Big Fat Spud
Ok I'm bragging...I pulled a 5 inch 14.3 ounce potato out of my garden today along with a bunch of other really lovely spuds. The skin is so fine on home grown potatoes that you can sluff it off with the soft side of a sponge and boy do they melt in your mouth. :o)
I know what I'm having for dinner tonight...

07:49 am - This is horrible...
I don't care if you're a vegetarian or you eat meat like I do. Watching this video will turn your stomach. Is eating a fish that can kill you so important that you have to watch it flop around still trying to gasp for breath after it's face has been chopped off and it's body is being chopped to pieces?
Would more people join the cause of this creature if it were fuzzy and cute?

10:16 am - How does one go about...
verifying the authenticity of a Canadian pharmacy? One of my prescriptions just went up to $50 a month, which pretty much means my insurance isn't paying for any of it. I found a Canadian pharmacy that will, with prescription, give me 6 months worth for only $95. It's a hell of a deal if they are legit.

I bought a solar panel today that will charge just about any portable device around. So cool. After about a hour in the sun it will recharge my cell phone twice or give me about 15 hours on my ipod.

No more running out of power at the wrong time and reduce your electrical bill. Check out their gallery. Way cool.
Also you can get them for less if you shop around online. :o)

10:03 am - A face only a mother could love...
Ok this is just drivel I know, but I am just thrilled at how fast my cucumbers have been coming up. I bought another Jiffy peat pot set to give one more try. Have had bad luck with them before but I think that's because I planted the little guys way too soon.
So this time I'm going by the book and my little cucumbers came up in literally two days. My lemon grass came up almost as quickly.
This year I decided to give heirlooms a try and you wouldn't believe the crazy ass vegetables you can get. The ones in the picture are what I am most excited about. They are Thai cucumbers that will literally have red skin instead of green. They look like a big chili pepper. So much fun in salads.

# 7 is my favorite!
The Ten Commandments from man given to woman
Through the inspiration of I, Prince Buster
One, thou shall have no other man but me
Two, thou shall not encourage no man to make love to you
Neither kiss nor caress you
For I am your man, a very jealous man
And is ready to lay low any other man that may intrude in our love
Three, remember to kiss and caress me
Honor and obey me, in my every whim and fancy
Seven days a week and twice on Sundays
Because at no time will I ever be tired of I-T, it
Honor my name so that every other woman may honor it also
Five, thou shall not provoke me to anger
Or my wrath will descend upon you heavily
Commandment Six, thou shall not search my pockets at night
Or annoy me with your hearsays
Commandment Seven, thou shall not shout my name in the streets
If I'm walking with another woman
But wait intelligently until I come home
Then we both can have it out decently
For I am your man, a funny man
And detest a scandal in public places
Commandment Eight, thou shall not drink, nor smoke
Nor use profane language
For those bad habits I will not stand for
Nine, thou shall not committ adultery
For the world will not hold me guilty if I commit
Murder
Ten, thou shall not covet thy neighbor's dress
Nor her shoes, nor her bureau, nor her bed, nor her hat
Nor anything that's hers
Neither shall thou call my attention to anything that may be for sale
In any stores, for I will not give thee anything but what
You actually need for your purpose
Those are the Ten Commandments given from man to woman
By me, Prince Buster

12:35 pm - First hand accounts of the strange and unusual...
Last night Gary related some news from his Mom. It seems that she had a really bad thunder and lightning storm the other night and lightning struck her patio outside her bedroom window. But even better, er I mean stranger, is that the only thing it hit was her BBQ. It didn't touch the patio, the house or damage her sliding glass window. It did however wake her up and completly destroy the BBQ. I've asked him to get pictures because I want to see if it completely vaporized the BBQ or if it just blew it into a million pieces. Either way it's creepy, funny and off the chart as far as whacked out stories go.
Today, while sitting at my computer something started making a pattering noise. It was like a creaking/bubbling sound. I put my face towards the noise and determined it wasn't my keyboard, tower or my monitor. That left my sunglasses, biz card carrier, some paper work and...the flashlight. The butt end where the batteries are located was definately the source of the sound. Why? I have no fricken clue. What? I can only assume it was the batteries? Freaky? No shit! I don't even know what to say. Nothing like that has ever happened to me and I seriously don't even know how to react. An inanimate object in my house just started making noise that it shouldn't be able to. Now I'm all freaked out that it's leaking radioactive material into the air and I'm going to be glowing soon. Seriously though I really like the flashlight so do I throw it out or brave changing the batteries or just leave it alone now that it's not talking anymore?
