Anyone have any rain to spare?

jhdouglas59

Just wondering if anyone would like to share some rain with me.

I will trade you 9 months of record drought for a couple of inches
of rain.

We have received about 4 inches of rain since January 1.

I think our normal rainfall for a "normal" year is about 30 inches.
We are a tad behind "normal" rainfall.

The heat is wonderful but the absence of rain is not too swift.

One of these days we will probably get 10 inches of rain in a couple
of days; then there will be flash flooding.

All of these weird weather events happen in cycles.

I just happen to be here in one of the drought cycles.

We are in stage 5 (out of six stages) of the drought.  We are allowed
to water our lawn once a week with a hand held hose during certain
hours.  What a great way to spend a day.

So how much rain have you'ns gotten thus far this year?

Please share some with me.

Have a swell day.

Looks like we were ahead of the times back then.

It's hard to find recyling as we knew it back then.

Whatever happened to refillable bottles anyways for milk, pop and
beer?

And why do we need bottled water these days?  What's wrong with tap water?

Who would have believed anyone would actually pay for a bottle of
water?

I guess it's another marketing scam.

Enjoy your holiday.

In the line at the store, the cashier told the older woman that she should

green thing back in my day."

The clerk responded, "That's our problem today.  The former generation did
not care enough to save our environment."

 He was right, that generation didn't have the green thing in its day.

Back then, they returned their milk bottles, soda bottles and beer  bottles
to the store.  The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and
sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So
they really were recycled.

In her day, they walked up stairs, because they didn't have an escalator in
every store and office building. They walked to the grocery store and didn't
climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time they had to go two blocks.

*But she was right. They didn't have the green thing in her day. *

Back then, they washed the baby's diapers because they didn't have the
throw-away kind. They dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling
machine burning up 220 volts - wind and solar power really did dry the
clothes. Kids got hand-me-down  clothes from their brothers or sisters, not
always brand-new clothing.

*But that old lady is right, they didn't have the green thing back in her

Back then, they had one TV, or radio, in the house - not a TV in every
room.  And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief, not a
screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen, they blended and
stirred by hand because they didn't have electric machines to do everything
for you.

When they packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, they used a wadded up
old newspaper to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap.

Back then, they didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the
lawn. They used a push mower that ran on human power. They exercised by
working so they didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that
operate on electricity.
*
*
*But she's right, they didn't have the green thing back then. *

They drank from a fountain when they were thirsty instead of using a cup or
a plastic bottle every time they had a drink of water. They refilled their
writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and they replaced the
razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just
because the blade got dull.

*But they didn't have the green thing back then. *

Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to
school or rode the school bus instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour
taxi service. They had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank
of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And they didn't need a computerized
gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space
in order to find the nearest pizza joint.

Basic Truisms

jhdouglas59

#1382

Here are my basic truisms based on my lifetime observations:

Youth is wasted on the young.

The only good snake is a dead snake.

Life in the fast lane is difficult for turtles.

I don't need the internet; my wife knows everything.

You need a vacation.

Good Point.  Now Shut Up!!

Life is too short.

If wishes were horses, all beggars would ride.

Elvis is still alive.

Chickens are "chickens".

Squirrels act squirrely.

Try this edible whatever; it tastes like chicken.

Mystery meats (they all taste like chicken).

Once in a blue moon only happens once in a blue moon.

I mean well.

How are you?  I am fine; I am not unwell.

Life is a sandwich.

Getting old sucks.

I know exactly how you feel.  I had a similar experience myself.

Blessed are those who expect nothing for they shall not be
       disappointed.

All cats are grey at night (per Ben Franklin).

Just a few wandering observations for a warm Sunday afternoon.

Anybody have some basic truisms to add to the list?

Not sure how this works for those born after year 2000.  I guess
their birth year 00 plus their age this birthday is 11 instead of 111.

Also next year the answer for those born in the 20th century, the answer will be 112.

The mystic world of numbers.

Has anyone listened to Gary the Numbers Guy?  He is big on numerology.  I think he is from Ohio somewhere.  I have heard him
explain some weird stuff on the Michael Savage radio show.

Can someone explain what a baker's dozen is derived from?

Is a baker's dozen of eggs 13 eggs?

Why is a pound can of coffee now only 11.5 ounces?

Why can't the Chinese shoe manufacturers (the only shoe manufacturers
left apparently) figure out how to make the same shoe sizes that
we used to have when the shoes were made in the USA?  I know the shoe
states a certain size but they sure don't fit the same as before.

Adios,

Juan

Save Ronald McDonald

jhdouglas59

#1377

This is odd that I would vote to save Ronald McDonald.

I know he is a clown and I don't like clowns but Ronald has done
a lot for the world with his Ronald McDonald houses and he needs
a break.

Don't let the boneheads that want to abolish Ronald McDonald from
our culture succeed.

What can we do to save Ronald McDonald?

I know Ronald is pretty creepy but he means well.

Go eat more rare hamburgers to protest.

Keep the Happy Meals and put more plastic toys in them as
your protest.

Stop counting calories and fat contents and just enjoy your
burgers and french fries.

Life is too short to worry about fat and calories.

Enjoy the fast food before it becomes illegal.

Zombie Apocalypse

jhdouglas59

#1376

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), we need to prepare
for the inevitable tomorrow when the world ends and we turn into zombies.

One more thing to worry about.

I have a problem pronouncing apocalypse let alone spelling the word
apocalypse.

I just hope all my ducks are in order.

Does anyone know what the expression "ducks are in order" means?

I suspect that it has something to do with the lead duck in the
duck formation.  So who elects the lead duck?  Do ducks vote?
Are the ducks registered voters?  Are they "motor voters"?

Per chance the movie "Zombieland" was a precursor to tomorrow.

What a great flick Zombieland was.  Woody Harrelson sure knows
how to blow away zombies (especially clown zombies).

I hope the clown zombies are the first zombies to expire.

The only good zombie is a dead zombie.

Does anyone recall the movie "Night of the Living Dead"?

I think it was a legend movie at the time.

See you in Zombieland someday.

Sweet dreams tonight,

The Zombiemeister

Probably best you check with me a little ahead of time, so I know.

So sorry about Sharon's brother.? So many facing death situations lately.

?

Have a good trip.? My sister, Cheryl, and her daughter, Dee, are up visiting my Mom right now in Dalton?and in May (29th) going to get my Mom and sister, Cindy to come to Dallas to visit with all of us.

Thanks for email...

Linda, we were headed north today through Allen and the station was playing "I Fall To Pieces" by Patsy Cline. How serendipitous was that. GThought maybe you made to the local station.
We are headed to Kansas City because Sharon's brother passed away yesterday after an extended illness.
We are planning a few days in Ohio during the second week of July if anyone wants to visit.

Have a great day.

Thanks Gwen for sending this.? For some reason I think all these people are already deceased since they seemed old when I was YOUNGER.? I rem ember them well growing up as one of the town kids.? The hardware was just down the street and it was always hard to tell if Comfort (what a sweet name) was there or not as she was so short.? I think there was a hardware up the street too for awhile.? Was it Troyers?? Before Edgerton drugs was there.? And then there was Douglas Insurance between me and them.? Pool room and Scotts Drugs and Bach gas station.? Cherish the memories, I do!?? Love and happy summer to all.
