Good 37º very foggy morning.
10-2 is a radio code for "receiving well".
Speaking of police codes.... here is a SUPER video of a CHP rescuing a
little dog on the freeway. You will enjoy, but you will cry, albet a happy
cry!!! Thanks Patty for sharing this!! xoxo
My nutty cat... Jeannie gave him a gift the other day. I think
he likes napping on it more than playing with it! Here are two super short
videos of the Bruise in action....
(LOL, this cat in the ad looks like Bruise!)

keyboard....
"What ya doin' Mom? Can't you just pet me???"
I forgot to post, but the other day when Linda and I were
leaving here and heading to Jacksonville these two deer, mom and baby, were down
at the end of my drive. I just sat there and let them do their thing so I
wouldn't scare them and they might run to the road.
They came towards my car and then headed off in the
woods.
... and from my friend Erika and several other
sources:
The Quote of the Decade:
"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, 'the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."
~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

Historically this
date....
1789 – George
Washington sends the proposed Constitutional amendments (The United
States Bill of Rights) to the States for
ratification.
And
births this date include...
.... and
it seems he died broke and friendless. You can read a sad story written about
him in 1960:
Since yesterday was
World Vegetarian Day...
my dinner last
night was an artichoke (drizzle on lemon juice, olive oil, garlic powder, and
sea salt...cook 50 minutes... I serve mine with BF mayonnaise.)
....and I sauteéd
some mushrooms, added in the zucchini cakes and some grape tomatoes.
Made a sauce of
mayo, honey mustard, avocado oil and drizzled that over the concoction!
REALLY tasty and
good, but the zuc cakes were mushy. I might make some mashed potatoes and mash
them into the mix. We'll see. But, won't be buying them again.
All I know. Happy
Hump Day. Nuff said. Ciao.

"Name Your Car
Day"
Dot and Rusty
Ok, Bri, you have a
new truck, what's ya gonna call it? I'm going to have to give this some thought.
My big black truck need something fitting, but kind!
Lots of people name
their cars. People with big boats, name their boat, and we think nothing of it.
So, why not name your car or truck!?
Every car has
character and personality. We spend a lot of time in our cars, and caring for
them. So, its only fitting that each car gets its own name.
Selecting a name
should be made with care and consideration. Give your car a name that properly
reflects its character. What you name you car should be a proper reflection of
its character and performance, and your desires for your car. In general, guys
names are for guys' cars, and girl names are for the cars that you ladies drive.
Aside from that, selection of a name is wide open. But, be careful....cars have
feelings, too.
Here are some of our
thoughts in selecting an appropriate name for your car:
Don't select wimpy
names. That might give your car a personality complex and it will perform
accordingly.
Do give a strong,
aggressive name to sports cars and cars with powerful engines.
Sleek, sexy
feline-like cars savor names that begin with "lady".
Old junkers are
proud just to be around. You can call them just about anything. Try "Tramp", or
"Old Yeller", "Old Blue".
Pick names to
reflect your personality.
"Pickemup" trucks
must have country names.
Don't give common
names (like Joe, Mike or Sue) to luxury cars. They beam over names like
Reginald, Archibald, and Crystal.
