It's morning somewhere

Took a nap - now, need to get to work, so here's a cute picture from the weekend. 

Last night, I was sitting on my computer chair, in front of the computer, when the chair made some squeaking noise. Then, something fell to the floor! It was a bar (not the one with alcohol), about three inches long, that might have had a wing-nut on the other end. I looked all over that chair to find out where it belonged. Couldn't find where it came from. Hmmm. One of these days, the chair back is going to break and I'll end up on the floor. I just know it.
A couple days ago, I moved the site meter box down to the bottom of my blog, to keep the little blogger box company. In doing so, I seem to have lost the little envelope for E-mailing a post. The envelope was right next to the comment link. Does anyone know what I need to do, to get it back? Not a real big thing, but just wondering.
Oh, yeah, I see many blogs have an open thread, now and then. Please consider this an open thread. Say anything at all.

Riverbend picks Thomas Friedman's article "Outrage and Silence" to pieces. Attagirl!

Sgt Mango insisted I get up. I took a short tour of my yard. I love the cooling shade of my trees. The Ash is looking particularly lovely this early am. 

The doves were cooing, but when I finally saw one, it wouldn't allow a picture. There are birds all over the place, tweeting and chirping up a storm. No wonder the cats are restless.

Name that tune

I finally looked at the papers.. and the comics. I found this one to be hilarious. Monty
Opus was terrific, too, but I couldn't find it on-line. At a coffee shop, Opus is fixing his coffee and this pretty lady is fixing hers right across from him. She's talking - one of her comments is "But I have this shocking "age of terror" urge to ask you to kiss me." She continues talking and Opus jumps up on the counter, lays down, face up, making kissy lips. She says to him, "I was on the phone", and shows him the earpiece. Hahahahaha!
I found this link that shows May's Sunday strips up to May 15, 2005. Maybe, in the next couple weeks, it will be updated? In my search to find a link to today's Opus cartoon, I saw this complaint:
Beacon Journal | 03/27/2005 | Relocate `Opus' As comics pages ...... having the comic strip `Opus' on the front page of your Sunday comics offensive. My young teen daughter reads the comics and will try to read `Opus', ...

...What? That strip is darned funny! I don't know how it can be so offensive that someone would be worried their "young" teenaged daughter might read it.

14 pictures of these 2 cats, sleeping. I need to set the camera down... walk away...  

Good call on the nap, though, kitties.

Update: Bryan reminded me of something I wanted to do. I was going to flip one of the kitty pictures. This one is as good as any other. 

Tropical Humidity and Politics Threaten Hemingway's Rambling Estate in Cuba,By Vanessa Arrington -Associated Press Writer - Published: May 29, 2005 ...American preservationists riding to the rescue have run up against the politics dividing the U.S. and Cuban governments...
...The Bush administration has taken a tough stance on the communist-run island, tightening long-standing trade and travel restrictions. The result: The preservationists were denied a license to travel to Cuba last year...

Apparently, after re-applying, they have, now, gotten the license to go and evaluate the condition of the estate. The rehab will cost millions, but they still won't be able to import the needed materials.

Iraqi Forces Launch Massive Baghdad Crackdown; Insurgents Hit Back, Killing at Least 25 People,By Paul Garwood Associated Press Writer - Published: May 29, 2005.
...The first of more than 40,000 soldiers and police, supported by U.S. forces, searched hundreds of vehicles and raided several houses, described as "terrorist dens" in Baghdad's Dora neighborhood, arresting several suspects, army Capt. Ihssan Abdel-Hamza said...
...It was not known how long the Operation Lighting would last...

I really don't know what to say about this. Someone made a comment, I think last night (on another blog) about how we won't have to worry about Iraq after a while, because we'll have helped kill off all the residents. The only people left will be us. *** I guess it's Operation Lightning.

Here we go again - WE'll tell YOU what you need to do!

Hey Mr Squirrel, Let me tell you what you need to do! 

More of the same, only today.... Besides a few critical problems that were resolved, to the best of my ability, the scanner jammed, this morning, as I was finishing up the worst reqs from Friday. I tried to figure out the problem, but could not. I called the main scanner guy who apparently called ourCompany Computer Guy. He, with his small son in tow, quickly found the problem (part of a sticky label had gotten stuck on the ceiling of the scanning area) and put my world to rights!
Today is much better than yesterday - very few phone calls, few requisitions... and I get to leave at noon!

Climbing roses and a bush (I have no idea what type) with little bitty white flowers. 

Bed time - I'm changing the time to 12:00 so this shows for Sunday. Is that wrong?

You might want to leave, now, because under this picture is a rant about my day! 

Yes, I sat there and watched Saddie pull a leaf off the plant, this morning. As you can see, it's obviously a toy. He really should not be messing with the plants, but I didn't feel like scolding him. He is just too cute. The kitties really made my morning. They must have realized I didn't want to go to work:) In the living room, while I was having some caffeine, Cotton and Saddie played like they were going to fight. When I had to throw on some work clothes, Sgt Mango amused me by rolling around on the bed, playing with the catnip frog. After the kitties' antics to brighten my morning, I was ready for the day. A day from hell! The scanner guy didn't get there until I was at lunch, off jogging. When I came back, the scanner was ready to go.
I pulled all of last night's requisitions and placed a certain amount of them in the tray. It started scanning so I left it to answer the phone. I got back and the reqs were all on the floor. I had not set the top tray to catch them properly. This happened several times. In between those times, the phone rang(I had to run and answer, of course) and the scanner jammed. I don't know how many times it jammed, but it was quite annoying. Some of the reqs had small attachments that need to be copied to a full size sheet of paper. Some of the reqs had staples in them. The scanner does not like staples... one iota!
So, I was making copies of the small attachments when the stupid copier decides to jam up. It's one of those new-fangled dealies with the fax included and 2 or 3 different trays for it to send the copies. Why it decided it needed to send this copy to the tray directly beneath the glass, I don't know. I unjammed it. The copy was made, but the copier still had it in the memory. It jammed again...and again..and again. I finally figured out how to get that copy out of its memory and to redirect the copies to an outside tray. I think I ended up with about 15 copies of that one slip of paper. I finished the scanning and had to concentrate on the current day's reqs. They needed to be entered in the computer.
I think I had about 30 left when another department (can't release results until they were entered) called me to find out why they weren't finished. Luckily, the caller was a friend. (He likes to call and whisper, "I smell dead people", (copying the "I hear dead people" kid from the movies) when I answer the phone. He & wife are moving away next month, bummer! He said he would give me his new email address so I could email "I smell dead people" to him. When I left, I was READY to leave. I stopped and picked up two powerball tickets. COME ON POWERBALL NUMBERS! Thank goodness, I had 3 wonderful babies to come home to:)

I took a small break and stopped over AT Mike's Hidden Genius. Mike is blogging about braiding hair? That's pretty funny, Mike.

I guess these are the words in the ad. I like both the advertisement and the product.

"You put the lime in the coke, you nut, you drink them both together.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, and you'll feel better.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, you drink them both together.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, and you'll feel better.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, you drink them both together.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, now let me get this straight?
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, and you'll feel better.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, and you'll feel better.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, you drink them both together.
You put the lime in the coke, you nut, and you'll feel better."
I hope this tune doesn't play in your head... all... day... long!

This is how my day is going to be, tomorrow! 


When I left my day job, I was able to snap this shot of the sky. It rained (but not as bad as I thought it would be) on the drive to the part-time job.
We had a pretty shaky night, tonight. The scanner broke down right after I arrived at work. Because of that, nothing was scanned in. The scanner fix-it guy is going to go in tomorrow and fix it. Guess who has to work this weekend? Guess who gets to scan everything in, along with her normal duties? Yup... Luckily, the scanning is not too difficult.

So, here's my music list for the weekend!

Platinum Country - various artists
Queen - The Miracle
REO Speedwagon - The Hits
David Bowie - Labyrinth
Sweet - The Best of
Jethro Tull - MU The Best of
Iron Butterfly - Scorching Beauty

Update: So I made it to work, got ready to turn on the phone so I could call another dept to let them know I was here. The phone lights were off. I waited a couple minutes and they came on. I checked all the phones (only need one logged in, since I'm the only one in department, today) - they had all logged on. I had to go around and turn the other phones off. The big boss's door is locked, but luckily, one of the supervisors showed me (yesterday) where the key was to unlock the door to turn off the boss's phone, otherwise, if I'm on the phone and someone calls, the call rolls over to the next phone... which, since the others are off, would be that one. One Saturday, a very busy Saturday, after lunch, there was a phone surge which caused all the phones to log on. They rang and rang. I finally had all the others turned off, but that one. The calls camp on the phone so I had calls backed up with my phone and that phone, both, either ringing or busy! I'm still waiting for the scanner dude to get here - I hope he doesn't wait to show up until afternoon.

You scored as agnosticism. You are an agnostic. Though it is generally taken that agnostics neither believe nor disbelieve in God, it is possible to be a theist or atheist in addition to an agnostic. Agnostics don't believe it is possible to prove the existence of God (nor lack thereof).

Agnosticism is a philosophy that God's existence cannot be proven. Some say it is possible to be agnostic and follow a religion; however, one cannot be a devout believer if he or she does not truly believe

Dark Wraith wrote a tremendously moving analysis about some community college students, their occupational options, and war. He explains the town divisions, the job situation, and several reasons the students are going to college. In "Analysis: Fire and Seeds," Dark Wraith discloses conversational bits the students, while on break, have about war, and the future.

...Three young men are talking out there, and the one young man, who's just enlisted, says, "Fuck, yeah. I'd fucking shoot 'em. They shit on themselves! Did you hear about that?—they shit on themselves when you lock 'em up!" The other two are snickering and nodding their heads in agreement...

...The culture of these males just oozes a deepening affinity to what the neo-conservatives have done to re-tool America into a war nation. The economy is failing them, the world of high and broad knowledge is pretty much unavailable to them, and the prospect of a country at peace is uninteresting to them. But despite all that should be telling them to fight for change, to insist upon and demand a civil society that provides abundantly for its people, these men line up to embrace the very mentality that sets upon them the boot of want and despair...

After reading the post, I was saddened. I really started thinking, in depth, about the military troops, and why so many young men(and young women) end up enlisting. When there's lack of employment, people have to determine what course they must take, to bring home an income. They may not want to join the military, but if it's the option left, they will (most likely) take that step.

It's a thought-inducing post that helps to understand others' situations. It's well worth the time taken to read it.

Newsweek's Mistakes by Richard Cohen - The first reaction I saw to Newsweek's retraction of that now-famous item came from out of the blogosphere -- someone attributing the mistake to the magazine's "antiwar reporting." The headline -- just in case you missed the point -- was "Newsweek's Antiwar Crusade Kills," and though the piece marshaled many facts, it came to the wrong conclusion. Newsweek, I am here to tell you, simply made a mistake...

...I will spare you any harangue today about the mistakes and lies that got us into Iraq in the first place. Suffice it to say that for the White House and the Pentagon to come down on Newsweek for making a mistake is the height of hypocrisy.

Where, just for starters, is the retraction from Dick Cheney, who said that Iraq had "reconstituted" its nuclear weapons program? Where are the right-wing bloggers insisting he do so? And where, when it comes to such a touching sensitivity to the feelings of the Muslim world, was the conservative objection to the mad screeds of Ann Coulter, who wrote right after the Sept. 11 attacks, "We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity"? The National Review subsequently dropped her and virtually pronounced her unbalanced -- but she has been adopted by right-wingers everywhere...

Cohen pissed me off, some time ago, with his pro-war columns. I stopped reading much of what he wrote. Every once in awhile, I would read one of his pieces and think "Not good enough, bud!" He had finally taken a turn in his thinking, but I wasn't fogiving him just yet.
His article Baloney, Moore or Less was kind of pissy, too.
Well, with this latest article, I've decided that I will forgive him (not that he would know or care:). People do make mistakes and he really has done a good job, lately.

My cousin, his wife, and their bike. Honda Shadow (I believe it's the Aero), what a beautiful bike.  

So, I was minding my own business, visiting blogs and having a real good time. I had already planted the Cosmos, the rose, and some Liatris bulbs. I had just gone to Weblackey's blog Toyblog and her first post talked about running. I had not jogged for a week. Sure, I had walked, but I still needed to go jogging. I had aches from riding horses yesterday, too, that could be shaken out. I turned off the computer, jumped in the car, and went to my favorite place. I jogged (and walked some). Coming home, I found (one of my favoritest) cousin and his wife just putting their helmets on, getting ready to leave, because I was not here. I was so happy I got home in time to see them. They mentioned they have stopped by at other times. My cousin asked me if my phone number was XXX-XXXX. No, and if it had, it was quite some time ago. Well, they now have my cell phone and the correct land line. I told them that my land phone is tied up by internet often. His wife said "our's too," as she pointed to him. Well, we are a bit alike. He helped me put a computer together from parts back in 1997.

I found this link at Whatreallyhappened.com. It's quite interesting to read. Ten Lies About Health Your Doctor Taught You

Lie #4: Vitamins give you "expensive urine."

Truth #4: The most expensive urine in the world is created by taking multiple overpriced prescription drugs, not vitamins. With more than 40% of the U.S. population now on prescription drugs, the drug content in human urine is now so high that trace amounts of antidepressant drugs can be found in public water supplies. Compared to drugs, vitamins are cheap prevention.

We're even ruining the water with our pharmacies.

Newsweek’s story - Fact or fiction? By HENRY J. WATERS III, Publisher, Columbia Daily Tribune.
...I hope most people can see through all this crap. If Newsweek made a false report, it should be criticized, but we have not heard anything clearly invalidating what it wrote. No doubt editors are sorry they ran such an inflammatory story without stronger sources, but they should not be charged with lying and sedition.

If benefits of doubt are to be handed out, I’d just as soon trust the editors of Newsweek as their critics in talk radio and the government.

Indeed! Also, on the same page, was this political cartoon by Mike Keefe.

One of my co-workers brought this Iris in. Her husband had mowed and accidentally knocked the flower off it's stalk. She, originally, had it at her desk, but thought the pollen was bothering her, so she put it on mine. Another co-worker came through our aisle and saw it. This guy enjoys photography and knows I have similar interest. At break, he suggested I take pictures while he shone some small lights on the flower. These are two of the pictures.

What a great day! The mail came today and there was my Curly package from Jeffraham Prestonian and another package containing the lovely photo:Fire in Fog from NTodd.

I was getting ready to go to work. Cotton was doing his part getting white cat hairs all over my stuff. 

My co-workers sometime annoy me, and I, sometimes, annoy them. It’s one of those giving relationships! Every couple days, or so, it's just great to work with them, though. Our corridor gets really stuffy during the day. We've complained and the maintenance dudes have tried to fix the vents, several times. They came by today to work on them, again. The ceiling above me was opened and they left... Q from another aisle came by asking about it. My co-workers are such smart asses:) I told Q that the maint people were up in the ceiling (not really) – so everyone jumped in…. "They were making BunkCubes", from N. "Moving some of my stuff into the attic to give me more room", from X across from me. From there, they jumped to "white gas escaping from the ceiling" and how I was the canary. When I passed out, they would all leave. Which went on mouth to mouth resuscitation. I told them not to even try it, let me die! Y said I'd probably have a heart attack, anyway, if I revived to see one of their faces in my face:) The maint guys were finished with the ceiling above my cube. It was, then, time to go back to work.

Having 6 people in the row, we don't, all, come in every day. Because it seemed more times someone was out, than all at work, we devised the smiley face on a calendar. When all 6 are at work, someone (doesn't matter who) makes a smiley face on that date square of the calendar.. Last month, we were creative....this month, not so much. We're doing better about all showing up. This week is a 4/5 week. We already know some will be out tomorrow.

...A district judge at Preston magistrates' court heard that when the RSPCA team raided Gregson's £500,000 detached house at Silverdale, near Carnforth, Lancs, they were initially "overwhelmed" by the stench of ammonia and faeces. They found the animals living in virtually unlit, rat-infested rooms with little water and food. Most of the water they did have was contaminated with cat litter...

Those poor animals. Didn't this woman realize she was harming the animals. Apparently, she was obsessed with collecting them, but, why subject them to such incarceration? Sometimes... often, I don't understand people.

Tonite, my jogging pal and I went to see the movie, "Hitchiker's Guide to the Universe". She had already seen it with her hubby, but when I mentioned I wanted to see it on one of my nights off, offered to go along. She had not read the book, previously, to the first viewing. After the show was over, she said she definitely got a lot more out of it, by seeing it the second time. We both agreed that it was worth the money (Matinee, cost $5.50 per person).
After the show, we walked about two miles and I found, first, a dime, then a penny. I was thinking how lucky I was to find the eleven cents. When I got home, I picked up the mail and found my state income tax refund. I was expecting a check for $4.00, but must have calculated it incorrectly, because my check was for $22.00. Ah, good times.

I enjoy seeing the trains with the bridge in the background. Crossing the bridge are cars and trucks. There is a spot where I can get a photo of the train, the sanddredge, the barge, and the bridge in one picture. Right before I took these pictures, there was also a helicopter in the air. It moved too soon for me to snap a picture.

US hardens stance on Uzbekistan
Uzbek authorities have sealed off the town of Andijan. The US says it is "deeply disturbed" by reports that troops in Uzbekistan fired on unarmed civilians during a protest in the east of the country.

Remember when the Iraqis were protesting and certain people fired into their midst?
I do, too.

According to this article, several hundred people were killed in this attack. There is too much blood being spilled, in this world of ours. It is so incredibly sad.

Coach Beaten Unconscious in Fight During Girls Rugby Match in California Town
"I never saw them coming," said Craig Stewart, 55, who kicked in the head and face by another coach and parents during a game Saturday, according to witnesses and police.

Several of the adults had fled by the time police arrived on the scene. Authorities were working to identify those involved in the fight. No one had been arrested by late Sunday.

Poor guy. People are getting angrier and angrier. I can't decide whether it's from all the bad news, or because there are so many people around. Maybe, a bit of both. With all those angry motorists, I think a good deal of it's from all the cars (people) in their way.

Why do people ask me how to get anywhere? With all the people walking around, they pick me, the worst direction giver in the world, how to get somewhere. Today, I was walking as a "wakening" break. I need to wake up or else fall asleep. Which will it be? Anyway, a young man asked me where some building was. He had the address. I thought I knew the street and it was near. I thought the street right out front changed into the street he needed. I told him so and he headed for his car. I should have told him to ask someone else, just to be sure.
I got back to my cube and asked my co-workers where the street was. They said it was right out front. I was right, for once. Thank goodness, I didn't send that young man out on a wild goose chase!

Now, this really bummed me out. 

I finally remembered that I wanted to photograph my paintings. They had been placed in the spare room, in the closet. Sometime ago, the wall of the shower leaked, but I did not realize how bad. I fixed the leak, but didn't go check on my paintings... until today. Because of my laxness, I ruined eight paintings. Some have small damage, but a couple others are as bad as these two.
