Throwback Thursday:
First thing yesterday (7:45) Dude and I went to
Dave and PJ's to turn on the sprinklers. We went back in a while and watered the
potted plants and fed the fish. Man were they hungry! Thought they were going to
jump out of the pond after the food! Their garage duo:
Today is a special birthday.. Dennis Richardson
who was our Republican candidate in the governor's election.
Sadly he lost. Right after the election the
governor Kitzhaber (Kitz-blabber!), a creep, resigned because there was/is a
scandal re his girlfriend (who lived with him after wife #1 and #2)) and the
criminal investigation of the roll she played in his administration... I'm sure
he waited until after the election to make his resignation or else Dennis would
have won. The governor's spot was taken over by Kate Brown, former Secretary of
State. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DENNIS!
On that note of politics that
sucks...
The
problems we face today
are there because of the
people
who work for a living are
outnumbered by those who
vote for a living.
Historically
GEESH~
1956 – A joint resolution of the U.S. Congress is signed
by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, authorizing In God We Trust as the U.S. national motto.
1965 – U.S.
President Lyndon B. Johnson signs
the Social Security Act of 1965 into law,
establishingMedicare and Medicaid.
1975 – Jimmy Hoffa disappears
from the parking lot of the Machus Red Fox restaurant in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit, at about 2:30 p.m. He is never seen or heard from
again, and will be declared legally dead on this date in 1982.
And births this date include.....
1863 – Henry Ford, American industrialist (d. 1947)
1899 – Gerald Moore,
English pianist (d. 1987)
Interesting both
Moore's
born a year apart and died a year apart. Not
related.
1933 – Edd Byrnes, American actor
"Kookie Kookie, lend me your comb."
(Yuck)
1947 – Arnold Schwarzenegger, Austrian-born American actor, bodybuilder and
politician, 38th Governor of California
(Good grief! Yuck ...
again!)
1956 – Delta Burke, American actress
I LOVE
the show The Mentalist~!!! He cracks me up!
Yep! Goodell is a jerk!
Yesterday the Trees Inc folks were here early (this outside my gate...)
and
started in back where they were yesterday and the other crew went up the road
back towards the BLM... trimming and trimming.
I found out that Ana was made a supervisor or
foreman or whatever her title is, just yesterday! Cool Anna!!! These guys came up
here in force... by 1:45 there were 5 big units and a supervisor .. bucket
trucks, water tenders, and trucks with the chippers.... And then more
arrived!
Suddenly a tire company truck went up the road
and then here comes a supervisor....
At 3pm they all started leaving... apparently one
of the rigs had a flat... the tire truck came back along with the rest of the
trucks, chippers, and water tenders....
Here is Anna driving her rig...
They were all leaving and my plumber, Mike
Artoff, was coming up the road.. My sink stopped up! It was a busy day for Mike
but he managed to get by here. Thanks Mike!!!
Later dinner was a combo of leftover spaghetti
that had mushrooms and fake crab and a bunch of fresh vegetables. Sauteé the
veggies in olive oil, garlic salt, and a little white wine..
SUPER Good!!!
The moon came over my mountain about
9pm...
All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.
