2GF,
I have to admit he's been in some pretty decent movies....Just not crazy about his affiliation with scientology who follows a religion put together by a science fiction writer....lol.

yes sir Uncle Bill I will agree with that assessment. There is a "Documentary?" running on one of the channels down here weekly with ummm that Rimini actress. She has shunned Scientology and now making a show of it. What the do show is crazy, those folks will hunt you down if you leave the church..........interesting show.......

 

[Togreenfeet]

A couple of my favorites, for you Uncle Bill

 

[Togreenfeet]

About 5 months ago I came home to a "Guess what I have" My wife got a mini Dacshund puppy........since then I have been raising this crazy dog. My wife had a standard Dacshund for 15 years, but she died of cancer years ago...........I wasnt pleased another mouth to feed. Well my wife gets her and works a lot.........guess who spends a lot of time with me? Yeup the dog. My wife says she can hear my truck and goes crazy until I walk in the door. She's awesome. Has her own personality, and the Pit B ull treats her like her own pup. The Pit is fixed never had a litter.. Anyway she is AKC rtegistered and my wife says I pay the dog more attention than her........NO the dog wont leave my side! So here's a couple pictures of Daisy Mae........I swear in the scond photo she's smiling at me.........Here ya go Dram........

OV,

As promised here goes....started off with 2 medium sized eggplant about 2 lbs in total.

1:- Chopped off the ends and peeled and sliced in approx 1/4" rounds....
2:- Salted liberally and weighted down over night with some large food tins(after covering with seran wrap).
3:- Rinsed and squeezed out excess moisture and cut in narrow strips and placed in stainless steel pot.
4:- Thinly sliced some celery and added to the pot(to give a bit of crunch).
5:- Thinly sliced 4 or 5 good sized cloves of garlic.
6:- Dried oregano, crushed chili peppers and fennel seeds are required for the jars.
7:- Added about 1 1/2 cups of half and half red wine vinegar and water to the pot and bring to a boil.
8:- Once it comes to a boil cook for 5 minutes then take off of heat and add about 1/2 of the garlic, dried oregano, chili peppers and fennel seeds to the bottom of the jars.
9:- Add the eggplant with the liquid to the jars and tamp down with a wooden spoon adding the rest of the garlic, dried oregano, chili peppers and fennel seeds to the jars.
10:- Add oil (olive or canola oil your choice but Italians would use the olive oil).
11:- Use a butter knife and go around the inside rim of the jars to ensure no air pockets are in the jars.
12:- Seal and place in fridge preferably for a week or so to let the flavors blend.
This batch made about 3- 8oz jar....enjoy!

We're fortunate that we have an ethnic fruit and veggie market nearby where we can get eggplant year round for between 79 cents and 1.29 per pound so it's a very cost effective side dish.

I've lost a bit since the last post....
Trying my hands at higher stakes....

As most professional gamblers will tell you.....

"Quit while you're ahead. Enjoy your winnings.
Pig out at the Casino Restaurants, Take in a show,
HAVE ANOTHER GUINNESS!!!
Don't piss away your fleeting good luck by continuing to gamble.
You can make more tomorrow."



Best,

Good advice to quit while you're ahead....most people don't follow that rule and walk away broke.

On most any day, while playing my guitar, I can hit the vocal high notes!

And, now, who is the voice of Queen?

Here's a hint:

"Somebody To Love"

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(take a look at yourself)
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you're doing to me

I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work 'til I ache my bones
At the end (at the end of the day) I take home my hard-earned pay all on my own

I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray (praise the Lord)
'Til the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody, somebody (please)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

(he works hard) everyday (everyday)
I try, and I try, and I try

But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
(Perhaps true....)
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, Lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing)
I'm OK, I'm alright (he's alright, he's alright)
I ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord!

Find me somebody to love [repeat]

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

(Find me somebody to love)
