Random thoughts from the moose cave.

no rest for the weary.

gonna put my boots on one more time, and go feed and water the chickens.

(their water freezes)

and collect the eggs so the stinky little jtt's don't come in and eat them.

then I'll start the bonneville and let it get warm.

on a mission to town we are...

OOOOOUCH! Mortally wounded by the ever witty Rocky.

I'll ride with you to town, Rock.

you are no more welcome in my vehicle than you are on my thread.

that you persist in making an ass of yourself here despite being made aware of your unwelcomeness speaks to your lack of character.

good day sir...

and **** off.

Says the little coward who sneaks out of his bitch and moan thread to snipe and then scurries back here.

Are you the only one allowed to whine and kvetch here, Rockhead?

Rock...

May I bring to your attention (again) the "ignore" function.

After JTT shat all over a thread in which I was involved, I put it on 'ignore' - never been happier!

That was when you tried to advance your cockamamie notions about can versus may for permission, Margo. It's little wonder that you sought the safety of ignore.

I figure this is what happens after a while to a bully with no friends.

mebbe he'll wear his self out railing at nobody, and go on home alone.

wherever that is or isn't.

not worth my time to comment on his crap...

More than a little disingenuous, aren't you, Rockhead?

I'm pretty sure it's the reason the ignore button was invented.

You're so predictable. Tico.

it must be very difficult going through life without friends.

being forced to seek negative attention as though it were affection.

sad really...

Thanks, Rocky, you gave me a great idea.

I'll start a thread where I whine about how my body hurts, stories about the neighbors, a regular Little House on the Prairie.

From there I can sneak out and snipe at folks and then run back to my moose cave to bitch and moan some more. And make pretense about how I'm being so put upon.

I don't think it will work for you, seeing as nobody here likes you.

but go ahead. give it a shot.

don't you have some water softeners to fix?

oh yeah, that is your doppleganger.

amazing the similarities however...

I thought you said you were just gonna ignore me, Rocky. Admittedly there are lots of people who don't like me. That's because those folks have real trouble facing reality. They just don't like to face the truth.

Do a little research, Rocky [where's the LOL emoticon?]. You'll see why all those brave "honest" folk fled.

Maybe you could give me some lessons on effective whining to win folks over considering you've got it down pat. Do you think I should use somma yer folksy, down home language and your pretend Will Rogers wit?

you are the one not facing reality.

you are acting just like you accuse my government of acting.

enforcing your agenda over mine with no respect for me.

go blow your **** horn somewhere else.

respect is earned.

your account is empty...

(and your jealous streak is showing again)

Damn, Will Rogers would be so jealous, Rocky. That was amazing!

funny how listening to someone else's troubles can lessen your own...

the kid from afghanistan was over to drop his monthly payment off.

he had been set to retire and was going to move to Japan to be with his finace.

sent her some big cash to help buy a car.

he got a call on V day just after the money arrived.

no more fiance. she is seeing someone else over there...

(I didn't see him liking Japanese life in the long run anyways.)

but we are not such good friends that I opted to give him any advice about women.

dog knows my own journeys there have been arduous and bruising.

gonna check the radar and go buy some more groceries.

another foot of snow possibly starting to fall tonight...

ALL Im gonna say about the batshit JTT, use the ignore until the asshole collapse feature is put on the board

We are firmly into mud season now, the night freezes are diminishing in intensity and precip starts as sleet and goies to rain. Its usually foggy for several hours in the AM but that gives way to a sunny PM.

SUgaring season came to an abrupt stop , were getting really punky sap now so this will be good to make excellent maple CANDY it gets a maple molasses flavor that I like)Im not doing the sugaring but an AMish neighbor is tapping my trees in the woods and he gives me 1/3 of his syrup an late candy. Last year we got 3 gallons and several pounds of candy and it was actually a shitty year

Im busy helping lambing, its getting fast and furious now (were approaching the crescendo time).

Was told that paw paws can poison the soil like walnuts. Ever hear that?

N0. I know them as Pawlonia tomentosas, but due to inattention I've no idea if they are good or horrible, or, good to some and horrible to others.

no not the fruit {weve established that they have a custardy vanillay flavor}. Im concerned that the leaves9when the frosts hit em) generate a toxin likethe prussic acid from walnut leaves
