While Moving

We had some BIG bugs at the old house.

UHaul has not convinced me that the Smart Car is suitable to tow a trailer.

My maternal grandparents had a telephone shelf in the hallway of their house in Titus County, Texas. I'm really proud that 555 and I have a telephone shelf in our Dallas County house.

We have a tree in the front yard.

555 bought a clock at Three Dollar Admiral, batteries not included.  It was hung on a nail and lasted two full nights before it became a part of the Yard Sale Inventory.  Ticking keeps me awake at night. We'll acquire for ourselves one of those modern 'silent' clocks.

A stump in the backyard near the Pet Sematary makes a fine perch for the charcoal chimney.  I'll slowly burn the stump away and allow Ma Natures vegetation to hide the grave site.  Chill out, it's not like I'm gonna exhume the little fella.

 

Scam Alert

This is a scam. 

Beware

Subject: Horrible vacation!!! I need your help!!!
From: Xxxxx Xxxxxx  
To: You@isp 

This message may be coming to you as a surprise but all I need right now is your help. 

Few days back I made an unannounced vacation trip to Xxxxxx, XX with my family . Everything was fine until last night when we got mugged on our way back to the hotel. They made away with all our cash,credit cards and cell phones but thank God we still have our lives and passports; it's such a horrible experience. 

Another shocking thing is that the hotel manager has been unhelpful to us for unknown reasons...he has restricted us from some services and believe me, I'm writing you from a local library. 

We reported to the police and after writing down some statements that's the last we heard from them. 

I need your help,I need you to loan me some money to settle our bills here so we can get back home tomorrow. I'll refund the money as soon as we get back. All I need is $1650.

Let me know if you can get me the money then I tell you how to get it to me.

                  Thanks

Drug Crazy : How We Got into This Mess and How We Can Get Out

By erecting an artificial barrier between alcohol producers and consumers, the government had created a potential bonanza that can only be likened to the Gold Rush.

As historian Andrew Sinclair put it, “National prohibition transferred $2 billion a year from the hands of brewers, distillers, and shareholders to the hands of murderers, crooks, and illiterates.”


“We had not realized that the moment restrictive legislation made these drugs difficult to secure legitimately, the drugs would also be made profitable to illicit traffickers.”


Since the speakeasy had no liquor license to lose, there was no need to check ID.


In a vote they didn’t bother to record, on a matter of little interest, a handful of congressmen forwarded a bill that would one day help fill the nation’s prisons to the roof beams.


The drug agency, responding instantly to this shift in the wind, cut the number of junkies to 150,000 in the next report, and the administration was able to take credit for the overnight cure of some 400,000 addicts.


It would be tough to come up with a better system for teaching hatred of the law.


Peruvian officials estimated they were losing half a million acres of rain forest a year to these ad hoc plantations.


After a seventy-year battle against illegal narcotics, it was now possible to walk out the front door of the White House and do a drug deal across the street.


If the drug lords are spending tens of millions a week on their friends in government south of the border, how much are they spending in the North?


Lee Brown, first drug czar of the Clinton administration, was speaking to a Los Angeles town hall meeting about the disaster in Holland when a gentleman in the audience stood up and introduced himself as the consul general of the Netherlands and politely refuted everything Brown had just said.


The hardest drug to get say the kids, is not reefer, but alcohol.


There are no beer pushers hanging around the playground.  You can’t make a living at it.


Prior to the Harrison Narcotics Act, if people wanted drugs they at least had to go to the drugstore.  Now they can get anything they want from the neighbor’s kid.
