So me and a buddy took a road trip up into the mountains to visit his son and girlfriend who live about 3,000 feet straight up.(After we got home, his son said it was SNOWING up there!) So we had a nice fire and cooked pork chops and rice and green beans under the stars. I spent a lot of time on his wii playing his hunting video game. I was shooting at digital deer, antelope, elk, moose, and wild sheep among other virtual animals. Anyway...I had a blast. In the morning before we departed, my buddy got an electrical shock from one of my broken light fixtures. He hollered for me. I found him on the floor in the closet under the fuse box where he had fallen after he walked in there from the bed room where he got the shock. I pulled him up. He could not stop shaking. I wanted to take him to the hospital, but he insisted on going to see his son. He was shaking and shivering badly for half the trip. But he was OK by the time we got up there. He has been OK so far since then, other than his normal chronic back and kidney pain. We all played horse shoes under the stars in his son's back yard one night. My adventures continue this comming friday at the dentist. MORE on this later...

Yeah, I am well. Went to doctor, got some antibiotics for my toothaches. Got back on my old antidepressant that works better than Lexapro. Now that I have my Celexa again, I hope that I shall have no more waves of melancholy. OK. I got to leave the library and go panhandle for a while and see if I am able to collect enough donations to be able to ship out the 2 items to my winning eBay bidders. And maybe collect enough to put a few drops of gasoline in my tank.

There seems to be a general shortage of feul over here in USA in spite of warmest winter since Vikings settled in Greenland helping us conserve petroleum based products. Salt caves ought to be FULL of crude oil from Texas and Alaska for conversion into gasoline to reduce prices for drivers during hard times over here, but gasoline and diesel fuel prices continue to climb. I have developed a concept for an automobile or motorcycle engine that runs on a mixture of water and metallic sodium. A small amount of sodium and water shall react violently at ambient temperature and pressure, allowing for a more efficient mass to energy conversion within a motor vehicle engine. The abundance of sea water, rich in sodium chloride does contain enough water AND sodium to replace ALL petroleum feuled engines worldwide for the next 50 million years in MY opinion. I challenge anyone to manufacture and sell vehicles that can be operated effifiently on this kind of feul, OR to retrofit existing autos to run on this feul mix, either exclusively, or as an hybrid. And I challenge this entrapeneur to design and distribute an infrastructure and means of safe dispensation for this volitile mixture. Or: Any ideas from YOU for ANY new and unthought of feul that shall prove cheaper and more pragmatic than solar cells, nickel-cadmium or other feul-cell hydrogen based electric battery requiring electric recharge that only encourages burning MORE additional coal, oil and gas or other petroleum to keep the electricity generation plants firing?

Final bids came in low but cost of shipping will hopefully be covered. I may soon be selling a few items of greater value. Unfortunately, I do not have anything to sell that is worth a whole bunch of money. And if I did and if I sold it, and if I got a whole bunch of money, then...I would spend it.

...that you got a legitimate email on friendfinder (Not from spam or somebody deleted for system abuse?) I can not remember how long it has been for me but it has been a while. My last few real ff emails were from friends that I already have here at friendfinder. I still am not allowed to send out my OWN initial emails because I am only just a standard member, but I AM allowed to reply to the ones that friends and potential new friends submit. I got 1 new "hotlist" from a 27 year old woman in South America. Of course I NEVER would get such a thing from a woman my own age. But if you are ANY age and want a NEW friend at friendfinder, and YOU are allowed to send initial ff emails, and you are NOT a homosexual or bisexual male looking for a boyfriend you are welcome to send me an email and I shall reply! If you are ALREADY one of my many friendfinder friends, you can always send me one if you are allowed to send initial emails, and I can reply to yours too!

Costume Jewelry

I got some costume jewelry for sale at auction now. No bids so far. I figured out how to take a pic of the jewelry with my cell phone and send the pic to my email. Then I got a librarian to copy the pic from my email and post it on the auction. Not the greatest quality picture, but maybe somebody out there will throw down a few bux for it. If they search on the auction for costume jewelry estate auction flea market picks, maybe they can view my jewelry...and maybe even make it all their own...at a dirt cheap price!

I met some friends last week in Maryland for a presentation at NOAA that included a lecture about hurricane hunting and tornados. I stopped in at the NOAA museum. One of the displays indicated the record largest hail stones for Maryland, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia. The largest hail ever recorded in Washington DC was baseball size. The largest in Maryland was grapefruit size, and the winner, in Northern Virginia was 5-inches in diameter (about the same diameter as a computer diskette.) The grapefruit size hail in Maryland fell during thunderstorms that occured on the same day that the F-5 tornado touched down in LaPlata, Maryland, I believe during 2002, or thereabouts, during April.

Charity Dental Work Needed

OK, so I need to get some serious dental work done, but as always I find myself lacking in fundage. I may visit some local churches tomorrow and see if there are any charities or perhaps generous dentists who might be able to help. I need allo f my decayed and abcessed roots extracted and a complete set of dentures. A dentist with a sliding scale will cover 65 % of the cost based on my limited fixed income, but I need to raise the other 35 %. Wish me luck, friends. I miss the taste of a fresh, crunchy salad.
