Yesterday the Bruise was out and about doing his hunting thing
again...
Then some turkeys started following a couple deer, a buck and an
doe....
Then the Bruise goes farther up the hill...
He saw me on the porch taking his picture, so he came running back! I love
the way he jumps through the fence!
Now here's a f**king surprise:
OSLO (Reuters) -- The effect of giving the 2009 Nobel Peace
Prize to U.S. President Barack Obama fell short of the nominating committee's
hopes. Geir Lundestad, lifting a veil on the secretive five-member panel, also
reveals that former German chancellor Helmut Kohl, late Czech president Vaclav
Havel and several rock stars were among those who were considered for the award
but never won.
Lundestad writes in "Secretary of Peace" that the prize to
Obama was the most controversial during his time as director of the Norwegian
Nobel Institute from 1990-2015. He attended committee meetings but had no
vote.
"Even many of Obama's supporters thought the prize was a
mistake," Lundestad wrote, adding that many Americans viewed the award as making
Obama a spokesman for international peacemaking values rather than their own
interests.
"In that sense the committee did not achieve what it hoped
for," he wrote, noting Obama himself rarely mentioned the prize.
The award, made by the committee in particular recognition
of Obama's vision of ridding the world of nuclear weapons, was widely criticized
in the United States as premature. It came just nine months after he took
office. (AND he got
1 1/2 million dollars for it!
GAG)

Yesterday, wow it was cool. Sun finally came out about 9:am.... first you
couldn't see my mountain ...
then it started coming back into view..
And then it hid again and started raining up there....
Then the sun tried to come out ....
Then it clouds got dark again and by 2pm it still was only 68ยบ, and then by 4:30 we hit 72ยบ! I'm NOT
complaining, this kind of weather is my favorite!!!
Breakfast yesterday... I shredded a cooked chicken thigh and added Creamy
Garlic sauce... on a whole wheat English muffin I put a little mayo on each
side, put on tomato slices, the chicken, and lettuce....
So good!!! Too full after that for lunch!
Football last night was intense. Would not normally have watched, but what
a game! HOLY COW! Broncos 2 touch downs in last seconds!
Dinner was an urge for just vegetables... so stir-fried some broccoli, snow
peas, and carrot slices with a touch of water and some of my lemon infused olive
oil... and cooked an ear of corn. OMGOOD!!!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy TGIF. Ciao.

September 18th
National Cheeseburger Day is today. Top off America's favorite
sandwich, with a piece of cheese.
The food industry makes it a point to celebrate a wide variety of foods. We
believe the Cheeseburger certainly earns a special day.
Celebrate National Cheeseburger
Day by firing up the grill, and
cooking cheeseburgers. You can do so for lunch or dinner.... or both! Any kind
of cheese will do. Try a different cheese, if your adventuresome. For the carb
conscious, eat your burgers without the buns.
Watch for....... luncheon and dinner specials today at your local
restaurants. Tops on the specials board certainly should be cheeseburgers!
Today is also the birthday of the USAF!
