Oh, that is a card term in Bridge. Count the cards in you hand. If they equal seven, then you are in the wrong game.
No, that's not it. It has to do with the number of times one hit's their finger when pounding in a nail after you calculate your age and divide by seven and subtract the two if you want to.
I also heard that it takes seven time to tell something to somebody so this is only three and nobody will remember it.

All of these electric dripola coffeemakers get clogged up from

has gotten old to me and not worth the effort to make lukewarm
no taste coffee.

With the Yosemite stainless steel percolator stovetop type, all
it takes is a short 8.254987622 minutes daily to clean up the coffee
grounds and residue with soapy water and a scratchfree dish sponge.
No more vinegar and monthly vinegar headaches from a cleaning
process designed for sadists.

My Yosemite makes coffee that actually has a coffee brewing smell
and a truly hot cup of coffee with taste with only a brief 33 minutes
of brewing time. Great for those in a hurry.

The coffee probably tastes like it used to back in the olden days
when Peggy Wood of "I Remember Mama" brewed coffee incessantly.
She always had that goofy smile on her face like she was having
an overdose of caffeine. Or maybe she just meant well. The world
is full of people who mean well (but have a problem in actually
truly meaning well). Or maybe she was just "nice". Remember my motto
that "Basically people are nice in isolated groups of one or less".

That was probably the best tv show other than Bishop Fulton Sheen.

Of course there were other great shows like Pinky Lee and Mr. Wizard
starring Don Herbert.

And the best show of all was Ernie Kovacs and wife Edie Adams.
Who could ever forget the Nairobi Trio? Now that was great tv.

And the best song back in the olden days had to be Peggy Lee
and her rendition of "Is That All Their Is?". I think that song
actually was famous in the late 60's but is still true today.

I often think of that song when I see historic places such as
The Alamo in San Antonio. I look at that place and I say
to myself "Is That All There Is?". That kind of fits most
of the grand places that once you see it you have the feeling
that there must be more to the hype than what you actually
see and encounter.

A word of warning. My next topic will concern the "Rule of 7".

Can anyone out there postulate what the topic means?

Guess I got used to more conveniences. Perking on the stove top is not my style. Our's is a Hamilton Beach that has a thermal pot so it stays warm but doesn't get burnt and overheated (yuk!) from a hotplate. Also grind my beans each day. So I'm a snob - but, hey, to each their own.

After all these years of suffering with the electric coffee makers
such as Mr. Coffee and all other brands which make lukewarm nasty

decided to get a non-electric percolator which makes coffee the
old-fashioned way of 50 years ago.

I chose the Farberware Yosemite Percolator which I got online at
amazon.com for $19.99. The coffee which it brews is actually hot
and actually has a taste. It works best with cheap coffee. I prefer
Chase & Sanborn but I can't find that brand in Texas. So I use
Master Chef which I can buy at Wally World in Boerne. 33 ounces
for $5.35. Master Chef is roasted by Massimo Zanetti (which also
roasts Chase & Sanborn).

The Yosemite Percolator is a 10 cup percolator.

We have an electric range. After many attempts at how to make the
perfect pot of coffee, here is my routine:

For a full pot of coffee, use 4 giant scoops of cheapo coffee.

Our electric range has a burner setting from 0 to 10.
I select the 5 setting and perc for 25 minutes.
Then I select the 2 setting and perc for 8 minutes.
Then I turn off the range and let the coffee set on an
unused cold burner for another 2.7 minutes.

The coffee is then ready to drink.

Pour as many cups as you wish.

Put excess coffee in a thermal carafe to keep the remaining
coffee scalding hot.

I tried in vain to find a stainless steel vacuum coffee pot
but could find none. So I selected the Yosemite percolator
instead. I am pleased as punch with my purchase.

To all you coffee freaks, I recommend this Yosemite percolator.

As an aside, I suggest you also buy the glass percolator top
for a few dollars on Amazon.com to replace the yukko plastic
top which comes standard with the Yosemite.

Anyone else out there frustated with lukewarm foul tasting
coffee? Ditch those Mr Coffee and related copy cat devices
and go back to the future with a percolator!!!!

Mexican Patrol and AZ swat teams and Sheriff undercover agents.? 2 of the stolen SUV's came from Calif.? Wash D.C wants to take our guns away >>>>> NO? WAY !!! ? ? 3-7-2012 Our country is in BIG trouble.... Why was there no news coverage of this raid on the Arizona border?? Definitely NOT Jose wishing to come pick lettuce! This is exactly why we MUST support ARIZONA. This seizure was just five days ago. Right on the Arizona border! This is but one seizure that has taken place along the border over the past year. There have been many more like this. (but you won't hear about it on major media news.) Not a mention on ABC - CBS - NBC - MSNBC - or CNN news- - even on FOX These photos and reports come from a Spanish language news source. Thank God for the border patrol and that they did not allow this to get in. Huge Stash of assault rifles. (Grenade Launchers in pix center!) Enough ammunition to outfit a small army was confiscated. Military caps and equipment were among the cache of weapons. All types of assault weapons were among the cache Many were military grade weapons with plenty of ammo. There were enough guns to open a gun shop. It was a major asenal of weapons including grenade launchers. (Seen a little to the right of center picture.) Not only weapons, but also vehicles believed to have been stolen were found at the site. One smuggler was killed during the operation when he fired on the border patrol agents. See cellular phones! Arizona does not require a "Front" license plate! Numerous Police style bullet proof vests were found in one vehicle. More than 200 large weapons were confiscated along with about 30 smaller arms 2 grenade launchers were among the cache It appears these guys intended to portray themselves as police officers or military men. Each and every vehicle checked had been reported Stolen in the USA in the recent past! $380,000 worth Of stolen vehicles were recovered. More than 60 grenades of varrying size were found Arabic writing was found on them. Numerous Hand guns with loaded clips were also found in the cache. A single grenade like this could bring $5,000 On the streets of the USA . Each of these weapons could be sold for as much as $5,000 on the black market in the USA . More than 80 stolen cell phones were found. These could be used for detonating bombs remotely. Still more rifles were found stuffed in several SUV's Clips loaded with live bullets were just too numerous to count All types of weapons including Afghan - Russian - Chinese and many others Why would anyone to object to protecting our borders after they have seen this??? Our own Federal Government intends to sue Arizona over their law. But the Federal law reads almost word for word the same as Arizona 's. Problem is, the Federal Government refuses to enforce the law.

?

Just when I thought there were no more things to worry about,
a bird has been attacking my outside car mirrors.

This bird is in love with my car mirror. Daily he pecks away
and stares at herself in the mirror. A side effect is the
proverbial bird excrement she leaves behind.

I finally solved the problem by putting Wal Mart bags over
the mirrors secured by a high tech rubber band.

This has at least slowed down the bird attacks.

The only downside is I must remember to take off the Wal Mart
bags before I drive the car.

I have not seen this activity before this year. Do you suppose
this is an omen of some kind?

Perchance Albert Hitchcock is behind this plot. Remember his
movie "The Birds" with Tippi Hedren?

Speaking of Albert Hitchcock, I am now obsessed with watching
black and white reruns of his Alfred Hitchcock Hour each weekday
night from 10:00 to 10:50 pm on Directv Channel 539 Encore Suspense.
Classic Hitchcock stuff without commercials. I ask myself why I
watch this when all of the shows have stupid endings. Maybe that
is the answer: they all have stupid endings. Classics indeed.
This begs the question why do I have an HDTV and then watch
black and white Hitchcock shows. The answer is that there is
nothing better to watch on the tv wasteland (especially network
tv crapola).

Anyways, I digress.

Back to the birds dilemma, I thought I would pass along my
solution to the birds in the mirror problem to others.

Anyone else have a similar problem with birds?

Or maybe the birds are trying to drive me mad.

So far, they are ahead of me.

So spring is finally here. We have bluebonnets galore this
year in our yard. After a reprieve from the recent 2 year
drought, there is an abundance of wild flowers this year.

Who would have thunk back in 1959 that I would be writing
about wildflowers in my golden years...

Solving another perplexing annoying problem, I remain

There is always someone who stops here to visit, pray, or meditate. Trucks, buses, or single vehicles. Groom, Texas is a tiny town on I-40, but gets lots of visitors because of this.




What an incredible display.This could be one of the last surviving Christian displays of its kind in the country!
This is about 70 miles from Amarillo outside of a town called Groom, TX.
Read message at the end of pictures! These are the pictures of the crucifixion of Christ, Sculptured from metal by a man near Amarillo , TX. The crosses are made of metal also. The man did this out of the kindness of his heart. Someone donated the land on which to erect them.

IN CHEMISTRY, HE TURNED WATER TO WINE.

IN BIOLOGY, HE WAS BORN WITHOUT THE NORMAL CONCEPTION.


IN PHYSICS, HE DISPROVED THE LAW OF GRAVITY WHEN HE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN.

IN ECONOMICS, HE DISPROVED THE LAW OF DIMINISHING RETURN BY FEEDING 5000 MEN WITH TWO FISHES & 5 LOAVES OF BREAD.

IN MEDICINE, HE CURED THE SICK AND THE BLIND WITHOUT ADMINISTERING A SINGLE DOSE OF DRUGS.

IN HISTORY, HE IS THE BEGINNING AND THE END.



IN GOVERNMENT, HE WAS CALLED WONDERFUL COUNSELOR, PRINCE OF PEACE.

IN RELIGION, HE SAID NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER EXCEPT THROUGH HIM.

SO, WHO IS HE? HE IS JESUS!


JOIN ME AND LET'S CELEBRATE HIM; HE IS WORTHY.

THE EYES BEHOLDING THIS MESSAGE SHALL NOT BEHOLD EVIL.

THE HAND THAT WILL SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYBODY SHALL NOT LABOR IN VAIN.

AND THE MOUTH SAYING AMEN TO THIS PRAYER SHALL SMILE FOREVER.

REMAIN IN GOD AND SEEK HIS FACE ALWAYS. AMEN

IN GOD I'VE FOUND EVERYTHING!

The greatest man in history had no servants, yet they called Him master.

Had no degree, yet they called Him teacher.

Had no medicines, yet they called Him healer.

He had no army, yet kings feared Him.

He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. I feel honored to serve such a leader who loves us! If you believe in God and in Jesus Christ His Son, you may wish to send it on .... if not, just ignore it. If you ignore it, just remember that Jesus said.

Lanny (and everyone else),

Go down to the bottom of this message and click on “Messages in this topic”.? That should take you to the Yahoo reflector site.?? On the left side of the page, find “attachments”.? Click on that and then click on the “Photos 1950-1960 ICON.?? If that doesn’t work, I can just email it to you.

PJ,

I don’t think this web site will allow attachments.? Your best bet is to post them on the Dalton59 Yahoo Group site.
