Friday Flash 55...



Thar she was, the purtiest gal in the Holler.
Bubba has been waiting 13 years for this moment...He's been practicin!

"S'cuse me, did you fart?
Cause you just blew me away".

"Are your parents retarded?

Finally...He approached.

Start thinking about your Friday 55 kiddies.

Retro-Wednesday...





Hi Everybody....
I was casually surfing some vintage web sites yesterday, when I came across some familiar items. After rummaging around the garage for a bit I came across a bag with some old medicinal bottles inside. The Dr. Edwards Olive Pills are from the 40's. The Tums and Dental Floss dispensers are from the 50's.
And NO, I do NOT still use them..
(Although I could..hehehehe)
Peace...!!!

It's Over Already??




Hi Everybody....
I'm home all safe and sound.
629 miles in about 10 hours..
Here are 2 of the leading attractions in Buckeye-Land..
The Pro Football Hall of Fame;
And Big Muskie Bucket!!
Someday I'll stop....Someday.
Back to regular programming tomorrow...Very tired...
Peace...!!!

Sunday Sound-Off.......



Hi Everybody....
All is well this GLORIOUS Week-End so far.
All is well except for one little thing....
I know this might sound trivial.
I know this might sound a bit anal.
But I would like you all to either consciously, or subconsciously, start paying close attention to almost ALL television fast-food commercials.
THEY FAKE EAT!!!!!...Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Oh they might look like they are enjoying that Wendy's Spicy Chicken sandwich, but they are chewing AIR!
That starving guy might look as though he is feasting on a KFC Extra Crispy Chicken thigh, but he is chewing AIR!
Why for the love of Billy Mays, must we be subject to Untruth in Advertising?
This really bothers me, can't they find some starving guy that can do 30 takes on eating a Hardy's Thick Burger?...I CAN!!
This little irritation has been building up now for quite a while.
I feel much better now...
Thanks...:-)
Isn't blogging wonderful?
Peace...!!!

Thursday Portrait//Friday Flash 55.....







Stubborn Green-Headed guardian of your sturdy bloodline.
Drake was dead-set against this busy spot to hatch his legacy,
but she would not be swayed!
Once, twice, THREE times the angry upright flightless ones destroyed the nest.
Then...In a blink of an eye, the egg was laid!
The Hen thought...( Fuack You! )

.
All this Drama happened yesterday at our front entrance.
We tried to hint to the Mallard pair that they should move their nest to safer and wetter territory. But when our back was turned for 5 minutes...BINGO!!!
She laid one egg in the dirt!
This morning, she had rebuilt the nest and was sitting on TWO eggs.
In my experience with ducks, she will probably lay 6 or 7 MORE.

I'm leaving tomorrow at noon for a long week-end, and I'll be on the road for 10 hours or more. So consider this 2 posts in one...
My Thursday Portrait...AND My Friday Flash 55.
If you are reading this Thursday Night or Friday, please remember...

If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55, please come tell the G-Man.
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment...Then BOOK!!
So from the most gracious host, from coast to coast...
Have a GREAT Week-End!!!!
Bizness as usual, I'll have my lap-top.
Peace...!!!

Retro-Wednesday....






Blogger ate my first attempt..Grrrrrrrr.
The first 3 pics are lard cans that are for sale On-Line.
And for a pretty penny I might add.
The Farmer Peets can, we have had since the 40's.
It was used for camping and/or deer hunting to store food in, to keep it out of reach of critters.
Mine is NOT for sale.... of course I still use it!!!
Peace...!!!
