And We Don't Give 'Em Away For Free

Some horrific misalignment of the stars and my schedule has me working 2 Sundays in a row. I can see we may have some shoppers stopping by. See you Monday.

    Is Morans someone I don't know or is this the moron that is waiting for a brain?

    Maybe when he gets a brain, he can find a heart, too.

    This is the sort of thing that makes Republicans look bad. I wish he'd used spell check or a dictionary before he made his poster. *sigh*

    This reminds me of an incident that took place in the UK a couple of years back. After a national newspaper had run a "name-and-shame" campaign against "known paedophiles" living in the community, some witless wonder got all stirred up and sprayed "paedo" (probably spelt wrongly) onto the front door of a – yes, you guessed it – paediatrician. We should REALLY be able to prosecute for criminal ignorance.

    I love this picture. I believe this is someone at a McCain-Palin rally if I remember quickly. I'm not sure if he has a brain, but he certainly looks like he is working on an enlarged liver...

    No morons OR Morans came in looking for brains today. I guess the ones we thawed out will just go to waste...

    As a teacher of adult literacy, I find myself confronted by this type of thing all the time--"Eats Shoots and Leaves" is my canon. I hope to get through at least one day without a single cringe at a misused apostrophe.

    Off topic...haas anyone else noticed that word verification is less random recently, and that often there is a real word or something that could be sounded out as a real word? Why do I bring it up? Because my word right now is "mused". Hmm

10 Things I Love That Start With the Letter E

Game imported from Sweet Annie at Blissful Bohemian . Name ten things you love that begin with a specific letter. In my case, the letter E. So here goes: 1. Well, first of all there's elephants . Who doesn't love those cute little faces?? And what's not to love? Elephants are actually a lot like humans. They laugh and cry. They grieve over their dead. They play games with each other and have fantastic memories so they can even remember the rules and not go to bed mad. 2. Then there's Engelbert Humperdinck, who I don't actually love and his singing's just on this side of okay, but I do love his name. 3. I luuuuuuv eggs , deviled. Nothing fancy, just classic. Best Basic Deviled Eggs 6 eggs, hard cooked and peeled 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1 teaspoon yellow mustard 3/4 teaspoon white wine vinegar pinch of salt (optional) fresh ground black pepper (optional) smoked paprika (optional) Cut eggs in half. Arrange egg whites cut side up on a serving plate and put the yolks

The Poet Goes to Indiana by Mary Oliver

I'll tell you a half-dozen things that happened to me in Indiana when I went that far west to teach. You tell me if it was worth it. I lived in the country with my dog— part of the bargain of coming. And there was a pond with fish from, I think, China. I felt them sometimes against my feet. Also, they crept out of the pond, along its edges, to eat the grass. I'm not lying. And I saw coyotes, two of them, at dawn, running over the seemingly unenclosed fields. And once a deer, but a buck, thick-necked, leaped into the road just-oh, I mean just, in front of my car— and we both made it home safe. And once the blacksmith came to care for the four horses, or the three horses that belonged to the owner of the house, and I bargained with him, if I could catch the fourth, he, too, would have hooves trimmed for the Indiana winter, and apples did it, and a rope over the neck did it, so I won something wonderful; and there was, one morning, an owl flying, oh pale angel, into the hay loft o

A Year with EB White

"You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die. A spider's life can't help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that."----- from Charlotte's Web I am a soul always drawn and fascinated by the idea of " A Year of...". A Year of Rumi. A Year of Calvin and Hobbes. A year cooking with Julia Child. A project that provides guidance for the year and a ruler we can measure inward growth in the course of our circle around the sun. One year, after an early marriage and an unsurprising--except to me--early divorce, I came across a book by Sue Hubbell titled A Country Year. I didn't plan for it to take a year to read, but it did. I only read it at night before I went t
