HiYa celtic my friend your so lucky, can't buy a good rain here. Hows your garden doing?
Its good Jimi. My tomatoes are doing great, all plants have at least one little green mater on it. Squash and Cukes are blooming. I've got little bitty pods on my bush beans and the onions, taters, and okra are doing just fine. :)

Today started out pretty shitty. TV in the shop took a crap. Time to get a new one. Thinking a 4K model, one of the curved ones. I found a nice one for about $3500. Anyone have any experience with these?

Nope......But I remember seeing them @ wholesale clubs like BJ's, Sam's, and Costco.....not too long ago. The prices seemed better there too. Samsung brand.

Florida wildlife cops are killing gators at Disney because of the kid who got killed by one. They're trying to figure out if one of the 5 they've already culled is the killer. Guess what? Gators kill things. I feel terrible for the kid and the parents, but come on. The gators aren't exactly to blame. You let the kid out of his kiddie pen and then let him wade into a lake that was clearly marked with "No Swimming" signs.

Reminds me of the old fable, "The Scorpion and the Frog"

A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream and the
scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back. The
frog asks, "How do I know you won't sting me?" The scorpion
says, "Because if I do, I will die too."


The frog is satisfied, and they set out, but in midstream,
the scorpion stings the frog. The frog feels the onset of
paralysis and starts to sink, knowing they both will drown,
but has just enough time to gasp "Why?"


Replies the scorpion: "Its my nature..."

Nature will always assert itself. If you put yourself in the way of this assertion, the blame for such outcomes as this lies squarely on your shoulders.

That is a sad thing to be happening, when in my eyes the parents are at fault 100%
Same with the gorilla incident.
Agreed. 100% agreed. Nobody takes responsibility for their actions. it was the gorilla's fault the mother couldn't keep an eye on her kid. "I turned for a minute to check Facebook and he was gone. "

Morning everyone ! So mom got me a new lawn mower for fathers day. My lawn boy is from 1976 but it still works great. Only problem is I'm the only one who can start it lol. Primer bulb is shot so you have to put a finger in the carb and give it a pull to choke it then it starts right up. Pull cord needs a new spring and the left front tire is worn to an opening down the middle. What the heck though I like it it's like an antique. So she got me a top of the line self propelled Honda mower. I was like what the heck do I need self propelled for ? My property is 25x100. I also do things quickly and efficiently so I was like this thing isn't going to keep up with me. Put gas in it and it started in one pull. Pushed on the variable speed paddles all the way and I was hysterical laughing. I had to break into a trot to keep up with it. Okay so I like it ! But..... I'm going to get the parts for the lawn boy and restore it just because. I'd like to send a video of it to Lawn Boy they'd probably get a kick out of it. Especially since it originally belonged to Lou Ferrigno's work out partner.

This was the guy Jerry Valente that the lawnmower originally belonged to. He was Lou Ferrigno's workout partner and actually ended up bigger than Lou. He would have won Mr. Olympia but he had a bum manager. This was one of the few pics of him I could find early on in his career. He was a nice guy and very talented. Not only did he compete in body building but he was also a plumber and an all around talented guy who restored cars among many other things.
