Momoe, I neglected this comment for whatever reasons?

You have responsibilities. I don't. hahaha

Tomorrow it will be 16F above zero and by Saturday 32 above zero?

I stress that I have this 'corner store' in the attached building. But when I go to the real superstore, I purchase more 'treats' as well as necessities.

Most probably I will go to the super tomorrow and then again on Saturday.

I dream of doing naughty things like picking up a pie. hahahaaha

The real point here is that I need to walk at least twice a day. I have been so lazy that it ends up being once a day and lately it has been once every three days.

I am now addicted to burritos. hahahahaha

One can put anything they wish into a burrito. hahahahah

Anyway, I have a heated roof over me, I have money available, I have lists that I make every day, I have the internet and basic cable and Netflix.

I can get by.

Yepper, I'm almost ready to

Yepper, I'm almost ready to kick ass again. Pun intended.

Now I thought a jack ass was

Now I thought a jack ass was the cross and not the mule.

Anyway, believe it or not the cross between a horny horse and a donkey is SOMETIMES fertile.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mule

It is just that the probabilities are against fertile offspring.

Again, the exceptions to the rule, like Gohmert seem to disprove the general rule.

hahahaahahah

I hope my Flower is feeling better!

I know what I know
I’ll sing what I said
We come and we go
That’s a thing that I keep
In the back of my head

-lyrics and music from Paul Simon

I know what I know.

You know what you know.

I know what I think I know.

You know what you think you know.

I don't know what I don't know.

You don't know what you don't know.

And that's the problem. It's an unknown unknown. Where have I heard that before?

So many of the braying asses in government and elsewhere are confident they know the answers. But, what they really know is their own answers to their own concerns. They haven't got a clue what the answer is for me. Or for you. Their focus is providing the answers for a very narrow slice of humanity that seems to personally perturb them in some fashion, such as the homeless, or unemployed, or gay, or 12 year olds or...name it.

So, yeah, the probability that the asses know the universal answer to a more or less local issue is highly disputable.

Yet the asses are listened to. Asses bray very loudly and can be annoying.

I know this because I have hankered for a miniature donkey for many years and researched the subject thoroughly. Mr. Flower doesn't go for the idea, the main reason being no matter their size, asses are loud and eat a lot and don't do anything but make poop.

And, by the way, jack asses are generally fertile. Breeding a jack ass with a horse produce a mule and the mule is the one that is infertile. Generally. Sometimes mules do reproduce. Like Gohmert.

That's all I got.

I think it is a little late

I think it is a little late for the Republicans to improve their status with the country. Women have been serious about organizing behind political issues. That genie isn't going to go back into lamp. They aren't burning bras this time but collectively using money and political clout. Women will be a factor in the 2014 election cycle.

I have been sitting here watching Al Roker this morning because the weather is a big event right now. It has stayed above freezing here this morning and should do the same thing tonight. It might go up to 50 today.

I am taking advantage of this right now and turned the self clean on the oven. It warms up the trailer. I don't clean it in the hot months. Of coarse it stinks and I hope the smell doesn't trigger a migraine in the my daughter-in-law. I was drying herbs Sunday in the oven and that made her sick. I was given a several large bags of herbs this weekend. I still have some to finish but I have to put them in the freezer and not dry them. I was also given a bag of key limes. I made juice yesterday and now in the process of freezing the juice in ice cube trays that I will bag up for use later.

Please stay safe and warm. You might want to keep an emergency supply of food for the bad winter months when you can't get to the store. I start gathering canned items in May and June for hurricane season. Then I use it up in November and December when I want to spend money on Christmas.
