    Strange critter behavior.

    Not like earthquake or eclipse strange, REAL STRANGE! First I was feeding the raccoons that break in nightly, when the little punk of the gang grabbed my bag of marshmallows and ran out the hole with it. well every coon in the place went off after the little turd. (like 5-6 of them!) and it...

    Anybody seen inside the ISS?

    What a bunch of hillbilly-looking Afro-technology! It looks worse than my Dad's old CB room with all the exposed wires, Jerry rigged and spliced in equipment! If aliens happen to drop by I hope they're appropriately ashamed... Unless the great Gazoo has empty beer cans hit the ground when he...

    I just found a can of red hot beef sticks I made a year ago.

    I found a deal on end pieces from some local company that makes them and sells the odd parts by the pound. I bought ten pounds. I pickled them in an ages-old red-hot recipe I've had forever, and they were the bomb! I just found my last jar, pickled meats improve with age it seems. So for every...

    Has anyone noticed any odd animal behavior since the solar storm?

    I have. NONE of the eleven raccoons I play with have shown up. NONE of the Opossums, four of them. That retarded armadillo came back. Two feral cats who hate my guts on sight suddenly want in. My buddy cats suddenly want near me ALL the time. The neighbor's stupid yap yap is being quiet, the...

    Invention of the week...Chickizza!

    So the other day I bought a bucket of cold fried chicken at the rotisserie, but I couldn't eat it because of a toothache. So what to do before it goes bad? Arrange a few pieces in an aluminum pie pan, heavily baste in Ragu Spaghetti sauce, dust with poultry seasoning, salt, pepper, and shredded...

    In a two-gallon stew pot, boil up a cup each of shredded Kale, Spinach, potato, onion and cabbage and set it on a low-burning wood stove just below simmer and add a quart of beef, bone, chicken or pork broth, depending on the meat you're using, right now, its pork, so pork broth and two good...

    Dental tips.

    Pain is one hell of a motivator, it puts your brain into high gear to make it stop! I have discovered a few tricks lately: A bag of green tea seeped in hot water helps, just place it over the tooth. Salt in hot water is a miracle worker. rinse until it's cold and spit. Absinthe works almost as...
