Dennis "the blue" Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 random thought.... If a woodchuck could chuck wood would he? and why would he? and where would he chuck it? would he be happy chucking wood? would he chuck wood just because his parents chucked wood? does he dream of doing something other then chucking wood? I think I'm over thinking it
CrazyCholeBlack Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 damn it, I'm sick of having to spend 20 minutes every morning chipping the ice from under my garage door just to get the darned thing open. I'm so ready for warm weather. "If part of the goods be plundered by a pirate the proprietor or shipmaster is not entitled to any contribution."

Dennis "the blue" Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 to your ice problem, the one guy I used to work with had the same problem. If I remember correct he stoped that by spraying wd-40 on the bottom of the door. Not 100% certian on that one so don't shoot me if it doesn't work.

If I remember correct he stoped that by spraying wd-40 on the bottom of the door. Not 100% certian on that one so don't shoot me if it doesn't work. I'll have to look into that trick. The problem is that the garage floods when the ice/snow melts which has been happening during the day lately. Then when the temp drops again at night it freezes. Thaw, freeze, thaw, freeze, repeat until June. Someone remind me why I didn't move south when I had the chance?

Ransom Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Well, your always welcome in the great North West. Best of all seasons, without the extreams. Although it can get hot for about a month here, into the 105-110 range. But usually not more than a month. The rest of the summer is 75-85. Come on, Chole, head for the Rogue Valley. :) Bonus, you're only two-three hours from the coast, depending on which route you take. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

jim hawkins Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Completely anecdotal evidence about VA hospitals...My father spent a year in a VA hospital in Baltimore and it was actually fairly decent. Old old building but they were slowly remodeling it nicely. This is about seven years ago so long before this latest news.
flintlock jack Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Random:So much life to live so little time to cram it all in.. A thought on your pondering, Miss Jenny, if ye'll allow me; Years ago, in a melancholy mood, I made notes to myself about the greatest tymes of my life. It took months of talking to friends, family and exes to have a good list, but when I was done I sat down and 'connected the dots', per se, to try and determine how I could live the rest of my life chocked with 'memorable moments'. I was surprised how some situations paralleled one another as far as the potential for an improved step in my life. In an objective light, I could see how I'd let a few opportunities slip by me. Silkie's quote about each moment is a great start, and believe me with the right choices(both life and partner)that 'full life' can manifest itself with an irresistable and desirable abandon. The right 'other half' is a great springboard in as much as getting yourself in the right proximity for a great life, I'm not saying it's absolutely necessary, and I always thought as such, but it's quite an adventure with two of likened minds and desires. Proactive seems to be an overused buzz word these days, but it's relative to progressive growth in both personal and social endeavor. That attempt to shift my own life by 'connecting the dots' has greatly improved it. The right spouse hasn't hurt either. There my thought goes being random again..... Fate, I've found as o' late, has raised its ugly head ta' redeem ih'self.......
Caraccioli Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Completely anecdotal evidence about VA hospitals...My father spent a year in a VA hospital in Baltimore and it was actually fairly decent. Old old building but they were slowly remodeling it nicely. This is about seven years ago so long before this latest news. I take it the media has reported something bad about VA hospitals. They couldn't have possibly found the worst possible case or situation and decided to expose that, now could they? (Somehow the reality of a media expose always seems so much tamer than they make it out to be. I'm still ranting about the news media, aren't I?) "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?"
CrazyCholeBlack Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 I take it you can't leave the door open just a bit. sadly, not if I want the stuff in my garage to *stay* in my garage.

The Doctor Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 Why is it so important that no child gets left behind? What if I don't like that child? And that other one smells funny... Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?

CrazyCholeBlack Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Oh Jenny, you'd like my vintage maroon wool crepe cheongsam with the sliver bamboo beading design. Found it from a vintage dealer out of San Fran many years ago. It even still has the original paper tag on the back. Although it has nothing on the "wowza dress", which is appropriately named "If part of the goods be plundered by a pirate the proprietor or shipmaster is not entitled to any contribution."

blackjohn Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 I take it the media has reported something bad about VA hospitals. Yep, it's all the rage 'round these parts... I have fond memories of Walter Reed... the Little Shop of Horrors... first place I ever got to see up close and personal like someone's internal organs... lungs, liver, pancreas... and someone's brain. And that wasn't even in the museum. The museum has such things as... the elephantiasis infected leg in a jar, and countless other things best left unmentioned in polite company. After my experience of last year, I see hospitals in a new way. Hospitals are filthy places. My mom spent her last six months in Hopkins, in one of the most high tech neuro-intensive care wards on the face of this planet, and MRSA swept through that place like the plague. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
