I have to re-install the latest and greatest Flash Player before I can look at something.
Well hell. I just re-installed the fucking Adobe Flash player I had - the lastest and greatest.

Re: Ever notice (in Aunt Bea's Joyus Bullshit) How dare you liken our beloved, adored, cuddly and kindly Aunt Beatrice to a hedgehog, even if it is true?

She might take it personal and find an even weirder avatar just to show us there's no flies on Auntie Bea..
I wouldn't put it pasture.

Re: Happy Birthday to me! (in Aunt Bea's Joyus Bullshit) Happy Birthday, old pup!
DId you get the 'one to grow on" yet?
Being 11 you probably won't grow much more unless you get too many treats.
When your belly drags you know it's time to quit the treats.

Re: Does Aunt Bea Care? (in ask aunt bea if she cares) Hinky dink and whore souls.
$20 each. You pays yer money and you takes yer chances.
Greeze, I love the warped minds here. I fit right in.

My paternal granny gave us vinegar and honey in a cup of hot water to treat a sore throat.
It worked. ... read more

Re: Does Aunt Bea Care? (in ask aunt bea if she cares) Grrr, Hon, I needs must ask you - is your wig screwed on tight?
Just askin'.

What to ramble about this time?

The better you are where I work, the worse jobs you get.
I can understand the 'Why', I just don't like it.
The sales people promise the customer the finished product at a certain date but the sales people don't wear their asses off running the machinery.
Because of the economy our raises are nonexistent and that increases morale like nothing else. The Idoits In Charge make changes in policy that have no roots in sanity only to change them again in a week... read more

Comes the time when 'Santa Clause' becomes predominate on peoples minds.
Say what you want but I think he's a Peeping Tom. "He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake. He knows when you've been bad or good, for be good for goodness sakes."

Ok, that being said.
The legend goes that he visits everbody on the planet on Giftmas night doing the Santa thing in a sled pulled by 8 reindeer.
This is a big ol' marble. and there's quite a few of us on it. And he sneaks in

Saturday Rebecky went out the back door for something and found a raccoon in obvious misery. I went out and looked and the poor thing was huddled into itself and really bad looking. The Animal Control bums don't work on the weekends and a few frantic phones call finally got the police to show up. This poor thing was drooling and scunched up and flies were all over it's face and it was sick, bigtime.
Not rabid unless it was the last stages.
Here's the bad part. After conferring they shot it... read more

It's simple to make once you understand what's involved and you've got the proper equipment.
It starts with some of Gert Strands Turbo Yeast, sugar and water mixed properly and left to ferment.
After fementing is finished and the 'mash' clarified the distilling begins. All you've got is sort of a wine that taste like water. Duh!
I use "The Amazing Plastic Still'. Some food-grade plastic buckets modified apropriately, and a high- temp, well, medium high-temp aquarium heater.

My Testimonials

November 29, 2009
Snert sees the beauty and the ugliness in the world and puts it into words that can make you laugh out loud, light up your rage, and make you sit quietly and think, sometimes all at the same time. Snert is the uncle we all should have had and the protector of injured or abandoned critters. If he gives you advice, listen up, he’s probably right.

Some summer night I will show up on his doorstep with my beat-up guitar and some beer, and I know he will welcome me in and we’ll share our songs and stories and stare up at the stars.

He has hairy toes. How lovely.

to know snert is to love him. i value his companionship and look forward to his every post. he makes me laugh, he helps me remember. his righteous indignation over injustice is cathartic and it mirrors mine. snert seems sometimes crusty but he has a sensitivity of soul all women yearn for in a man...to me, he is a good buddy. no, more than that, a kindred cuzzin. hugs to you, my friend"

When Snert first approached me to be his friend... I was a tad hesitant... so I asked around... and heard nothing but good things....

and true enough: I can't believe what a wonderful, caring and hysterical man he his. Snert never fails to lift my spirits and give my soul a thrill... all this and he gardens too.. who could ask for more...

Thank you, dear friend, for choosing me... I'm pretty sure I've gotten the better end of the deal.

Snert is sincere. Disarmingly, unflinchingly sincere. He is the kind of guy whose posts sometimes just stop you in your tracks at unexpected moments and remind you that there are actual human beings on the other end of all this online, virtual community stuff. He is damned funny, but pay attention: he uses that sharp wit of his to make you think a little more about what you just said, and you probably should.
