Got Money?

One of the best pieces of advice I will give someone eager to know where to invest, I suggest getting term life insurance quotes from as many sources as you can. For it is term life insurance that will or at least can be a valid short term investment. Many people invest in these financial instruments as a gift to a child to help them either attend college or start a small business.

A Test

I am not sure how valid my methods are of testing or trying to determine the status of the economy, but I actually enjoy visiting the Conn's and Sears in my area. Yes it is sadly true that there are fewer Sears outlets than just a few years back, but they are still recognizable sources of Samsung, Emerson, Toshiba and Motorola televisions. At Conns I can see what's available without moving too far into the store. The further a person goes into the stores dedicated to the entertainment electronics the more easily the vultures attack!

Once Again - He Lied

He said that the rain would hold off until tonight - once again he was only off by about 12 hours.

Oh Crap

I would have thought that a post office that is along Beltway 8 amidst dozens of large, multi-story businesses and corporations would have offered a better service that just ONE LINE. I wanted to get some stamps, but I have some @ home and can wait the delay of a day to use them. Just as I entered the section where the "May I help you counter is located" I heard someone says 'what the hell is taking so long'. So I did a u-turn and headed back to the van. The post offices near me are so much nicer and there is more than one line.

The Whole Idea

Now think about the whole idea, of what value is affordable health insurance to a dog, even ones as handsome as Charles and Butch. We already know that Charles' health was comprimised when he was but a wee little pup. Charles was his on his left side with enough force to severely damage his shoulder and his hip. And he is blind in his left eye – Hell you would be too if someone struck you hard enough to disconnect your retina from the back of your eye. Oh yes, Charles has an eye and most of the parts are in about the right place, but the eyebeall is not connected to the body and to the nbrain so heal th insurance of any kind with do him little good.

Top Veg

I have often wondered what would happen if I sowed diet pills. Of course I would sow one alone with one of each type of vegetable. Would God aka Mother Nature make sure that I could only harvest four ears of corn at the same time because too much starch would put on the weight. This would be especially dangerous (weight wise) depending on how much butter and sour cream is slathered onto each cob. Speaking of butter and sour cream, would I be limited in the number of potatoes I could harvest at one time? And what about those delicious peas. If God was promised that I would limit the salt AND the butter, would He allow there to be oh so many more peas in each pod! Yum!

1st Blood

(It is good that this is an electronic writing effort, because as usual, there will be several tear stains on this effort - they will be marked here as (P!) ; that translates to please pause/paws your reading, after all the writer had to.) I am not sure if this posting belongs in my three pups blog or if in fact this is simply the best place- after all it IS about Pup-(P!) the Texas Gardener. No not Pup the person also known as me. No! This is about "da Pup" aka da Brain(P!). You may believe that it is the truth I write of or not, but da Brain aka da Gardener used to help "pll weeds". And it is not his thorough method of getting the entire weeds, as he dug out enough dirt (P!) to plant a small tree. No! It was his method of determining which plant deserved such a treatments. If and only if the weed was tall enough to touch his belly fat did he turn around and ATTACK! Why so vicious? For da Brain, the weed drew first blood.

I dunno - I never know - do you?

Oh well its just a post - I mean what does it matter if I choose to discuss bodily functions or the cleansing thereof in such a family oriented, generally kind and often considerate place such as a garening blog. I guess I could liken it to what it takes to remove nematodes from your garden just as a colon cleanse would be to your digestive system - right? I wouldn't think that you would want to give your garden an enema - such a quick fix might not give you any control on where the chemicals go or which plants are affected. Or "yard man" has suggested that we just pull back the soil from here, then spray weed killer only here and not worry that the other plants in the area could possibly - in any possible way - be affected.
I am thinking that the best way to deal with nematodes is to shovel out all of the soil in the surrounding area loading it all into "thick" contractor bags say 3-4 mil thick. Set these bags in the sun to bake for a summer of Texas Warmth, then put the soil away from where they had done their damage last year and grow lettice, carrots and Marigolds.
Uh wha? - huh? You ask what is my point? I dunno - I never know - do you? Since we're into questions. Does this thing still have a spellchecker in it??

Don't Cha Just

...love dyslexia....errr something like that. One moment you are writing tv rowing and the next moment (just after the spell checker has slapped a portion of your anatomy) you are writing about rv towing. I have two, count 'em two wonderful friends who must have skipped every English class except the very first one and whatever it took to graduate. These gents can no more spell correctly than they can walk. The good news is that we rarely need to spell a word correctly in order to discuss it.

See what did I tell ya - the spell checker didn't like the uhhh, the -ly, the errr, the tv and the rv. [but then I don't care for the tv AND the rv either, but I am way too lazy to write out the WHOLE word] Words that just gotta be there, if I want ANY of this to make ANY sense!

Of three posts I wrote yesterday, the only words I missed were "for" [ I wrote fir ] and a family favorite "teh" instead of the.

When Momma missed that one she screamed.

When Poppa still misses that one he uses words only a sailor should utter - he wait, he IS/WAS a Sailor - in the U.S. Nave-e-e...and I don't give a rat's ass how the spellchecker likes THAT phrase!!! (hmmm the spellchecker doesn't mind - or for that matter have a mind!)

More Stuff I Dunno

I know a bunch about alot for I listen often - as often as possible to learned men, but there are so many things that I neither kn0w much about nor care to learn about. (uh oh a hanging preposition) Oh yeah back to what I could care less than snake poop about. (Dang it - did it again!) I do not care about ...

1. any pills but what I take
2. any car but what I driven
3. what they expect of me here
4. why I didn't get that job at the motel downtown
5. why the hell these companies don't hire their own people to answer the phones, oh well they may never understand why they are losing customer loyalty
6. why my pain meds don't work very well on some days
7. why the Sweet Lord in Heaven still Cares about mewhich hurts more - my neck, my hands or my sacorilliac - today the neck wins - I lose.why some dot com companies succeeded while so many failed
8. why I lost my last job - I was >> <<>
9. why I was so successful at my 1st job out of college and why the hell I walked away from that one.
10. why I didn't get my hair cut so short YEARS ago!
11. why they ask me about medical short-cuts - THEY'RE AIN'T ANY - ya pays for it now or later - but your body pays for it sometime!!

As for what I do know - I love her - and to be without her - life would have no meaning - they says my BiL is talking about ending his life if his wife of about 15 years walks away - yeah I can understand him ;-<

Why Ask Me

Asking me about the best acne treatment to use in any given situation is like asking President Obama about voting in the Senate of either his own state or asking President George Bush Jr. - he will always be a junior compared to anyone and he will always retain the title of President.Yep! Jimmy Carter is still President Carter. oh yeah my point. Its like asking President Bush how to rub a profitable company or sports team!
