WEATHER; HOT, MED HUMIDITY, 56/102 DEGREES

 

I WATCHED THE HUMMERS TILL ABOUT 11AM THEN MOM HAD TO GO TO THE BANK AND SHOPPING FOR GROCERIES AND GARDEN THINGS! IT WAS JUST TOO DAMN HOT FOR ME TO DO ANYTHING OUT SIDE SO I TURNED THE LIVING ROOM A/C ON!  IT COOLED THE LIVING ROOM DOWN PRETTY GOOD BUT WE NEED TO START IT BEFORE IT GETS TO 80 DEGREES SO IT CAN CATCH UP! WHEN IT FINALLY COOLED OFF LATE IN THE AFTERNOON I WASHED THE BIRD FEEDERS, WE WERE GOING TO PUT THE SOLUTION IN THEM AND HAND THEM BACK UP IN THE MORNING BUT, AS I WAS SETTING THERE THE TWO OF THEM STARTED CIRCLING THE CHAINS WE HANG THEM ON SO MOM MADE UP THE SOLUTION AND WE PUT THEM BACK ON THE CHAINS! WITHIN 5 MINUTES THE RUBY THROATED ONE WAS FLYING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THEM! THEY ARE DEMANDING LITTLE CREATURES BUT SO MUCH ENTERTAINMENT FOR US WE DON’T MIND!

 

FOR THE LAST TWO OR THREE NIGHTS AFTER MOM GOES TO BED I’VE BEEN WATCHING SOME OLD RUDOLPH VALENTINO MOVIES; “MORAN OF THE LADY LITTY” and “THE YOUNG RHAJA!” I STILL HAVE ONE MORE TO WATCH; “BEYOND THE ROCKS!” MORAN OF THE LADY LITTY IS A PRETTY GOOD MOVIE EVEN THOUGH IT’S SILENT AND THE FILM IS JERKY! IT HAS A DECENT STORY LINE AND I’D LIKE TO SEE IT MADE WITH THE MODERN EQUIPMENT OF TODAYS MOVIE COMPANYS! THE YOUNG RHAJA IS OK BUT DOESN’T HAVE THE STORY LINE OR THE ACTION OF THE OTHER ONE! MORAN OF THE LADY LITTY KEEPS YOU ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT WAITING FOR THE NEXT SCENE TO START DEVELOPING!

 

I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THIS HOT WEATHER, IT NEVER USED TO BOTHER ME BUT TODAY REALLY GOT ME DOWN! I HAD TO CALL THE VA ABOUT THE MEDICINE THE DOCTOR GAVE ME; IT MADE ME DIZZY, AND CAUSED A HIATAL HERNIA WHICH I HAVEN’T HAD FOR OVER 20 YEARS! I TOLD THE NURSE WHAT IT WAS CAUSING AND SHE SAID; “THE MEDICINE SHOULDN’T CAUSE THOSE THINGS! I ASK HER IF SHE READ THE “SIDE EFFECTS” LISTED IN THE PAPER WORK THE PHARMACY SENDS WITH THE MEDICINE AND ALL SHE SAID WAS SHE WOULD GIVE DR. GEORGE THE MESSAGE AND I SHOULD STOP TAKING THE MEDICINE AND TO CALL IN A FEW DAYS IF THE SYMPTONS STOP WE’LL KNOW IT’S THE MEDICINE! THIS IS THE 2^ND TIME THIS NURSE HAS SAID THAT TO ME SO I’M EITHER GOING TO DR. GEORGE OR THE DIRECTOR! SOMEBODY ISN’T DOING THEIR JOB AND I’M GETTING GUN SHY!

 

ANOTHER FUNNY!

 

BONELESS CHICKEN BREASTS

A SUPERMARKET HAD A SALE ON BONELESS CHICKEN BREASTS, AND A WOMAN I KNOW INTENDED TO STOCK UP. AT THE STORE, HOWEVER, SHE WAS DISAPPOINTED TO FIND ONLY A FEW SKIMPY PREPACKAGED PORTIONS OF THE POULTRY, SO SHE COMPLAINED TO THE BUTCHER.

"DON'T WORRY, YA ," HE SAID. "I'LL PACK SOME MORE TRAYS AND HAVE THEM READY FOR YOU BY THE TIME YOU FINISH SHOPPING."

SEVERAL AISLES LATER, MY FRIEND HEARD THE BUTCHER'S VOICE BOOM OVER THE PUBLIC-ADDRESS SYSTEM: "WILL THE LADY WHO WANTED BIGGER BREASTS PLEASE MEET ME AT THE BACK OF THE STORE."

THAT’S “30 FOR THIS ISSUE.
