a barred spiral galaxy - the rainforest expands - # 58

Ok Mags, how'm I sposed ta read the seconds when they're beein' erased by a person who prolly suffers from carpal tunnel?

Hope ta God ya bought chocolate, Maggie!

A man caught in a flood prayed to God for help. While he was on his knees praying, a police officer came to the door and offered to evacuate him, but he said, "No thanks, Officer, I'll stay here, God will deliver me" and resumed his prayers. Then a person in a rowboat came by as the waters were rising, and the man said, "No thanks, I'll stay here, God will deliver me" and continued praying to God for help. The waters continued to rise and the man had to climb onto his roof. At last a helicopter came with a ladder and the pilot told him to climb aboard. He again refused, all the while sitting on the roof and praying to God. Finally the waters covered him and he drowned. After he got to heaven he told God how disappointed he was that God didn't answer his prayers. God said, "What do you mean I didn't answer? I sent a police officer, a rowboat and a helicopter; what else did you want?"

Yuck, yuck, Stradee! Good one.
The wind is blowing here fit to knock the top off the house. And I thought the scirroco was bad. Huh. Them thar winds have NOTHING on the Cape Cod variety.
Happy Sunday, (with or without sun) to all.

Happy Earthturn to all the WildClickers!
Full moon tonight I believe. Does that explain the wild hair weather?

Lazy Sunday here- Föhn, the warm wind, brought a deep blue sky, warm temps and of course headaches.
Got a blackbird nest on the balcony- so the cat is sitting behind the window watching "cat TV".

Happy Sunday to all.

And a good Paysach to all our Jewish friends.

pwayfarer,

Whats with the danged weather! Fed plants and trees, watered, etc - then about 5:00 clouds, then rain, then wind - Saturday the same, and today more winter weather. Saying a novena for the Silver Birch.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
I'm schizophrenic,
And, so am I.

A thread walks into a bar and orders a gin and tonic. The bartender refuses him and orders him out.
The thread in frustration begins rolling and tumbling around on the sidewalk - then goes back into the bar and orders a gin and tonic. The bartender says "Aren't you the thread I just ordered out?"
The thread says,
"I'm a frayed knot."

Good Monday morning ,

All clicked



I was taught sewing techniques in school - aviation mechanic school that is. A lot of "older" planes are covered in fabric and when replaced the fabric requires a certain amount of stitching to fasten it to the frame. I actually recovered a fabric airplane for a friend. He paid me a dollar - a silver certificate dollar.

Thats shudda been the perfect topic for the new thread!

Quilting!

There's a photo of a quilt at the new thread <Spring>

Well, work calls.

My 90 yr old Mom, goes each week to a quilting club in the old school house where I went from 3d to 7th grade (two rooms - eight grades, one grade in each row of seats). She also still quilts at home - the quilting frame is suspended from the ceiling in the living room.

Yep, we have lots of quilts. Almost a Carl Sagan amount (billions and billions)

Oak Grove School in the '50's - it was a country school and closed in '57. I went to High School in Atlanta.

The ladies use it now for quilting and various other social functions. It still has the auditorium and kitchen.

Hmmmm, it appears that my directupload site has changed the rules.....................................................!





They now allow only thumbnails which must be clicked on to see...........

Hmmmmm.

Must find another site to show pix.

Danon, recovering an old-fashioned fabric-clad plane can be quite a "trip," so I've heard. I'm referring to the fumes from the contact cement one has to use in places where stitching won't work.

Trying to catch up on my posts! Click!
Hope everyone is okay.

The only thing I am sure about is that I have been clicking! I'm moving and half the time, I'm not sure what I am doing.

So what else is new.
