Neat

There's No Place Like Here: Liberty Tool from Etsy on Vimeo.

Here is a pretty neat place. You can pick up tools at a pretty good price at yard sales.

Wow did New Jersey ever get hammered. How many years before these places ever get back to any sense of normalcy? The Jersey shore is New Jersey.

I am going to build a display for all my Pez dispensers. They need to get back out on display for all to see.





Here is a wall made from pallet slats. I'd like this in my house.
Here is the Pez display.




I'm out. Have a good day.

Sandy



Well Sandy's wrath is yet unknown as of this writing but the devastation seems to be wide and massive.
Daylight will bring a harsh reality to many fellow Americans today. Peace my brothers.

Hippy Sunday








Spend your lovely Sunday with some sumptuous grooves.


Sunday in Autumn

A little sun, golden leaves getting tossed about in the autumn breeze
The kittens climbing the tree playing on my roof, Summer barking madly 
Wind tossing my hair about, windows rolled down, chill touching my arms
Ghosts and goblins, pumpkins and candy corn are the season
Country fairs are done, hibernation in the air

Republicans are dumb



Yesterday Trump offered the President $5 million dollars if he gave his high school and college records to Trump by October 31st. This is Stephen Colbert's response. Absolutely hilarious.

It is amazing how old Republican white men do not understand rape. This is because of their belief in their God. I think their God must be shaking his head at their collective ignorance.

As Ken said yesterday folks like me are in a dilema about our votes. Is NC going to be so close that a vote for a third party could swing the election to Romney. This vote really needs serious thought.

Looks like my parents are not coming for Thanksgiving now. Maybe I'll head towards the the Outer Banks for a night.

Russell Means, a real hero.






We owe them everything we took from them. We can start with some respect.

Wounded Knee 1973 is one of the first real world events I remember vividly seeing on tv as a kid.
I would have been 9 years when this started.

I never forgot, you shouldn't either.

It begins again



Looking like the election is going to be very close. Frightening how many people are buying the vast nothingness that is Mitt Romney. Talk about being doomed.

Debate or American pickers tonight. Hmmm. What should I watch?

Outside of taking Summer for a ride yesterday I did nothing. Saving money for the refinance if it goes through.

Looks like my parents are not coming down for Thanksgiving this.

Time for some toast for breakfast.

Have a nice day.

Sunday musings



Nice little bluegrass tune.

Nice day yesterday. Lovely weather.

Put up some shelving in the guest shed. Next for the shed is some hooks for my bikes and that gives valuable floor space.

Started stripping a little side table I bought some weeks ago. It is painted white with green drawers. The top has a least three layers of paint and the original stain. Not easy to get the paint off and down to the bare wood. Going to stain it and polyurethane it. This may be something I keep instead of sell at the shop.

Going to take Summer for a little ride into the hills today so she can see the leaves in the mountains.

This just in..............

George McGovern has passed away. The man who could have really changed the way America did politics.
Americans bought into fear and war with their vote for Nixon. It is a shame. We still have not learned a thing.
Goodbye George some of us still believe the things you wanted are still possible.

Orion



This is Jimmy Ellis. He had a career as a country singer and also as a guy named Orion who was an Elvis impersonator. He played with a mask on his face after Elvis died and many thought he was Elvis. Check his story out.

Have you checked out Rocky Anderson, running for President under the Justice Party label, you may want to. He has some pretty good ideas. Another third party candidate who deserves more recognition.

Have a lovely day earthlings.

Free the debates





This is what a police state looks like.

So this is how we treat third party candidates who are on enough ballots to actually win the election.
If you are enough ballots to actually win the election you should be the debates, it really is that simple.

So much for freedom.

We get get what we vote for and it seems like it is not much, unless you are a corporation.

Monday Monday



Never been to Spain is one of my favorite songs. Love the GFR version.

Went to Asheville and up to the parkway on Friday. Weather was perfect. Stopped in at an art and antique shop and bought a picture. It is a great piece of photography. Trying to find some more about the photographer. More when I find out something. While talking with the woman who owned the shop I told I do some photography and told her about my website. She looked at it and wants me to bring her some photos to sell.

The leaves were all over the place as far as colors were concerned. Down low they had minimal change and up high they were all ready brown. So Mt. Mitchell and Craggy Gardens were past peak. Another week at best for the lower mountains for peak at best for the Asheville area. I also saw a fox.

Went to a couple auctions in town Saturday. Bought nothing at one and bought a box of old plates, coffee cups, and Pyrex pie plates for $7.00 and a dozen old frames for $2.50.

Sunday I reorganized the guest house and that was about it.

This is the future. Big Brother knows who we are. Thanks to mother Jones.
