Ha! Ya Missed Me!

"No I didn't! Yer wounded in the arm!"

This is what happens when you play with "Camera on a Stick" and shoot at things you can't see!'

1980 ~~<u><b>Blondie dabbles in Rap</b></u> and kicks off HIP HOP
Fab Five Freddie told me everybody's fly
DJ's spinning I said my, my
Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sais pas, Flashe no deux
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercuries and Subarus
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
Then, when there's no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
One to one, man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move too slow, 'cause the man from Mars
Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
Rapture, be pure
Take a tour, through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said don't stop, do punk rock

Well now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on TV
'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars when the TV's on
And now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
And you hip-hop, and you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
And now he only eats guitars, get up!

We're All Summered Out!

There's still 20 some hours left to go but we are happy to wish this, the hottest, driest summer on record for this region, farewell.
Little impulses of cool fronts and rainy weather are now beginning to break through and make their way south every few days.
Sometimes they even bring a few millimeters of rain.

Train Wreck -- by the dawn's early light..

One story goes:
The train driver saw this crazy woman about to jump the gates.
He slammed on the brakes in the cab but 31 cars full of coal didn't get the message and we had a pileup!
Believe it or not --
No one was hurt in the train wreck but there are a few hurtin' units working this wreck in 100° heat.

?? Well I'm Thinkin' Tonight of My Blue Eyes ??

?? Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea.
I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me.??

This neighbor pooch may get to enjoy snow one day out of the year in Mineral Springs.
( And it doesn't make his blue eyes brown.)
That day was March 7 in 2008.
He looks mean but he is 100% pure sweetheart!

The Early Bud Catches the Bee

These Hibiscus set bloom just before sunrise so they can quit by noon when it's a hunnert ° in the shade.
The Bees come around early for the buffet.

This is Goober

He lives somewhere in the canopy above our back yard. Every day about 4:00 pm he begins to beg for his peanuts.
Bonnie gives him and all his friends, blue jays and woodpeckers raw peanuts.
Thing is, Goober has gotten so he'll take from her hand. You see, that just removes the risk involved in having to outsmart the birds and other squirrels.
-------------------------
So, here he is, eating his peanut, which he has carefully shelled. He is not sure what the guy with the camera is doing, but he seems harmless.
So, here's a pose.

What Was That??!!

This nice old oak tree was about all the cattle in this pasture had to stand under to get out of the sun.
Many a time I have driven by and seen ten or twelve bovines seeking refuge from the heat.
Well, it would seem something far greater than all of us must've taken exception to that and blown this old tree apart.
I'm guessing it was that one last month I could've swore hit the chimney! .......................................<b>BOOM</b>

Magnolia Secrets

These smell like the hair tonic they used to put on in the barber shop when I was a kid.
