Grass Farmers Should BURN in HELL

It's that lovely time of the year...during the end of summer...when grass FIELD BURNING begins in the Northwest. I believe it should be the time when ALL Grass farmers should be taken out and shot in a courtyard against a stone wall. Many people would relish the blood dripping warmly down that wall. I would. A controversial subject. But no matter the controversy, there remain several valid points... 1/Burning releases billions of particulates of CARCINOGENS into the atmosphere which cause cancer in animals and people. 2/Field burning is NOT good husbandry of the land. 3/Grass is NOT worth endangering millions of peoples lives in order to grow & sell. 4/Grass farmers are LAZY and refuse to adopt other methods of growing the grass. 5/If the growing season in the NW is so limited, why don't they grow it in a better area? 6/Grass farmers are GREEDY and want their profits no matter what. 7/Local politicans are LAZY and refuse to respond to the MAJORITY of the public who state they don't want field burning. 8/Grass farmers are "above and beyond" the law- - It is deemed TOO dangerous to burn; the general public is under a red warning as there is danger of forest burning. We have lived here about 2 months without valid rain. Way too dry here. I sit here...sick to my stomach from the stench, my eyes burning from the smoke, and a migraine headache from the poisonous fumes. So...think TWICE before moving here, Jill.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Why is it that people just ASSUME that as a woman, I want to look after their little kids?
Don’t get me wrong. I like little kids. Babysitting is OK if I have scheduled it ahead of time.
I loved my OWN little kid and watched over her if we went to other people’s homes. But this weekend, a guy came over to chat with Greg.
For the 1 ½ hour he was here, this father had NO CLUE where his kid was or what he was doing.
He just ASSUMED that I would watch his kid.
I had also planned things to do and did not have the time to watch over this kid. This little kid was very polite, but starving for attention.
He wandered around the house with me.
I had to keep warning him not to get around our dog, not to pet the dog, not to play with the dog.
Our dog does NOT like children.
I have warning signs on our home-Beware of Dog.
Since she has been with us from 6 weeks, we don’t quite understand her objection to kids–
Isabelle will growl at them and is literally terrified of them…will physically run away from kids.
She has never been abused by a child, but still gets very upset around them.
She has NEVER bitten anybody, but if she is cornered who knows what might happen?
This dog is very sensitive and since it is HER property they are invading, she has every right to be upset. So I told the father of the child several times that the dog does NOT like little kids,
but he really did not listen very well. I gave the little boy a drink and a healthy snack after asking permission from the father.
Also gave Greg and the father a drink while they stood outside “chatting” for over an hour!
Very subtly, I finally reminded Greg that he needed to work on a couple vehicles at the shop... Another time, the girlfriend of a guy that Greg was talking with came walking through the woods with her 2 year old child.
They just got out of the car and decided to wander around the property.
There are LOTS of car parts all around the property that a person could fall or trip over…
there are cougars, coyotes, and wild animals in our woods.
This woman did NOT even ask permission to start wandering around.
And these are the first people that would sue us if their kid got bit by our dog, even after being warned...
or would sue us if they tripped over a vehicle part in the woods.

Can You Say Coug-R?

Yep. Cougar poop. On our property. Kaka directly in the middle of the two-track that leads to the back.
We had it verified by 3 leading authorities. Kevin, Bruce, & Greg. You do NOT want to see this stuff, so I thought I would spare you a picture of their feces. Bones, blood, and fur is still mixed in with this crap! But I am posting a picture of the cougar here, instead.

Maybe a mommy and a baby. Big poop. Little poop.

Greg took me out to breakfast at Old European Breakfast House. Yum. Yum. I had Danish strawberry crepes & German sausage with fresh squeezed Orange Juice. Greg ordered Hungarian goulash & biscuits with sausage gravy.

Afterwards we stopped at the college to view Art On The Green.

After I tanned, we stopped at Home Depot to pick up a few bags of cedar bark. Then home to rest in the 90 degree weather.

Our chiropractor, Kevin, competed in the Longbridge Swim in Sandpoint on Saturday.

We dragged our former shop tree down by where the rude & nasty neighbors have been trespassing on our property with their bicycles, motorbikes, and ATVs. We also picked up 6 'no trespassing' signs at Home Depot.

C'mon people! What don't you understand about PRIVATE PROPERTY? the key word here is PRIVATE!

The supposedly "christian" people...Amy's parents...you KNOW who I'm talking about, Kelsey! Came over the day after we dragged the tree across the property and asked "duh, why did you do that?" Greg replied because it was PRIVATE property! They were STOOPID enough to admit they have been riding their bikes down that area because it is a "short-cut" to the dirt roads behind us.

Whomever decided they wanted to trespass there also cut the previous barbwire fence with fence cutters. We have found garbage, broken trees & smashed bushes. We don't want the side of our property looking like another road!

How would YOU like it if I drove my SUV down the side of your property in your sub-division?

Crushing your fence and damaging your grass & landscaping??????

Same thing. These people supposedly call themselves christians? Where is their christian philosophy?

Trespass on your neighbor? Idiots. Stupid. Grow some damn brains.

I suppose we will have to install a 6 foot barbwire electrified fence.

Cold Inside

I really don't understand Blogger. SOMETIMES I am able to post pictures. MOST TIMES I can't. Then, sometimes I have to post, then log off and come back to log in and am then able to add a picture. Can't SOMEBODY fix this? I updated our website with new pictures from Project Reese's Pieces. Visit http://www.RockyMtnOffRd.com to see the latest. August 19 Jennifer & Forrest's Wedding Greg got an emergency call out on Friday night. After verifying that the address was not valid, reference to the water district was 15 years old...it hadn't been called that for 15 years. Dispatch called him back to advise that the address WAS valid because...get this..."It's in the SuperPages!" Yeah. honey. WHO told you that Superpages was the absolute most perfect reference and everything in it is TRUE? Greg must have been talking to a blonde.
Found this definition on a dictionary website-
Telecom (noun)
The act of fucking an employee so hard, and so badly, that their spirit is crushed and/or destroyed altogether, crippling them emotionally, and damning them to a life of servitude and RV waxing.

What's Up YOUR butt?

Did you ever notice that the day that starts out perfect will not always end that way? If you get lint in your belly button... What do you get in your butt-hole?

Did You KNOW?

that I talked with my wonderful daughter and great son-in-law yesterday? My little baby has recovered from her cold, her voice seems OK now. My SIL is obviously attractive to BOTH members of the sexual orientation groups, including all mammals. I am referring to a certain homosexual superior officer in the Air Force propositioning him sexually. Gee. I thought they were not supposed to be doing that. Isn't that sexual harassment? I love you ONLY as a mother, Matt. Not. Any. Other. Way. I mean it. They could start their own soap opera over there. UK Confidential. Isabelle, our dog, was playing with her boyfriend, Wolfie the other day. He knocked her to the ground and she injured her RIGHT leg. A quick trip to the vet for anti-inflammatories and an order of mandatory bed-rest. Yeah. Right. YOU tell a 117 pound dog she has to stay in bed. HA! ATTENTION! Just to let you know. I am STILL around. However, since HughesNet has severely crippled my on-line access because of their Stupidity...there is not a lot of computer time for me anymore. Unless I want to be severely frustrated because of the slowness of the internet. This barely gives me time to: 1. Check daily Email at all 3 emails sites 2. Pay bills 3. Check investments & finances 4. Let Greg cruise eBay 5. Download scrap kits 6. Comment in the Scrap site forums that I love 7. Shop at scrap sites. 8. Surf 9. Blog 10. Chat So it's not like I have removed myself voluntarily. I just don't have enough ISP access to do everything I want. However, I am waiting until spring for DSL. My hopes are high. I am holding my breath!
