“Moose Stomps Man’s Foot in Alaska, After He Kicks Her”
https://www.newsminer.com/news/alaska_news/moose-stomps-man-s-foot-in-alaska-after-he-kicks/article_757e894b-2dfa-5586-a5fd-d9015045bc34.html
There’s some things in life best not ventured into without proper thought or equipment. I have to wonder, what kind of intoxicants would lead a person to think, “Hey… Here’s an animal that outweighs me by 6 times or more, and lives by its brawn and wits. I think I’ll convince her to move by assaulting her with my foot!!"?????
To make matters even -more- quizzical, the cow moose had a calf with her... How to nearly guarantee you're gambling with your life. The cow let him off easy, apparently realizing she was dealing with an intellectually-diminished or substance-challenged being.
Some of us need more coffee in the morning, or fewer intoxicants later in the day.
I also think that playing ‘chicken’ with a Kenworth is probably a bad idea.. but that’s just me…

I think, this is only possible in Germany? A Staffordshire-Terrier bites the two owners (mother and son) to dead and 250 000 People gave their signature, that the dog shall live in a sanctuary for the rest of his life.

Today my semi-deep partially formed thoughts were along the lines of security.
Computer security (post in Website Support) and Landlord Perception Management security (explaining your abundant energy use if you grow indoors & rent.) I think that one is in the Security & Legal issues section.

I began replacing some of the perlite in my mixes with pumice and rice hulls (and a smaller amount of zeolite). A number of perceived advantages therein.
Today I checked in one of the larger tubs where I keep left-over soil mix. It's OVER-RUN with thrips!!! And there's RICE growing!! No doubt WHITE rice..
I don't eat white rice, nor do I have enough wet space outdoors to plant sufficient amounts of ANY rice.
Yes, I knew that in dealing with organics, there's an increased frequency of 'the natural world' delivering things not welcome, but the trade-off has typically been worth it anyway.
I'll keep telling myself that.
Right after I remind myself each time I kill one of the buggers how much I HATE THRIPS !!! (*And fungus gnats... And I've been out of Gnatrol for years now. I guess it's time to buy another jug.... If I can find one..).
Then I reminded myself again that the seltzer water we drink so much of comes from Cincinnati, Ohio. Nothing against Cincinnati, per se'. Nikki Giovanni was from there. Probably still is. I admired her poetry in the early 70s. But how clean do you suppose their urban water system is there, to be adding carbon dioxide, sodium, and (????), then trucking their water over 3,000 miles in cans to Alaska??
Seems kind of bass-ackwards to me, frankly. Shouldn't we be canning our glacier water and sending it to them at twice the price???? I mean, they're melting, right?? Seems a perfect opportunity to "make lemonade from lemons."
Another day in a world that often makes very little sense... spawning many a deep thought... or not..

And another thought today, while in the middle of making a fine chicken salad to go onto honey whole wheat bakery bread (the last of the loaf :^( ... ) with romaine lettuce.
Is it morally and/or ethically wrong, or utterly lacking in empathy, to put hard-boiled eggs into a chicken salad??

Thanks guys. My conscience feels a bit lighter now.
But in wary appraisal of the risk of offending the Cosmos, I steered clear of the whole eggs in chicken salad thing. The salad was/is good, but we've made a point of not speaking too loudly about it near the fridge. Due caution, I think.. The eggs being stored just inside the door, and all.. ;^>)

does anyone else remember buying weed that came in baggies without Ziplocks?
The Ziplocks weren't in supermarkets yet and the baggies came with twisty ties to close them..
Of course, we didn't use the twisty ties... we just rolled the bag and put in in our pocket..
If you put it in a big coat pocket, sometimes your grass spilled out in your pocket...
Later they came out with a baggie that had a flap... Then you could lick the flap when you rolled it closed...
We spilled a lot less of our grass then!
Edit: I found this pic of the old baggies with the twisty tie...

i remember, used to lick the edge so they'd stick kind of like a joint
3 fingered oz, 4 fingered oz and 5 being the holy grail
We used to break down kilos..
We used to break down kilos..
We used to break down kilos, just $90 on Texas side of the border.
We’d sit at the kitchen table and bag ounces in plastic baggies (little postal scale) We took out the stems and removed excess seeds. We sold them for $10 an ounces.
We always made a few bucks and had smoke.
Those were the days $10 went a long way

My neighbor just gifted me 2 different buds, both in that old style baggie.
A fruity bud named Blue something, and a Skunky bud labelled Hindu Kush.

Yep, there were no zip-locks. Just Glad (or no-name) sandwich baggies. Lick the edge (which I'm sure kept the thing glued shut for all of the 2 minutes it took for the saliva to dry out, leaving a nice enzyme/bacterial residue).
We must've had strong immune systems back then, or else the germs and viruses were real wussies. One or the other. Maybe both. ;^>)
Many a kilo went into baggies like that. And if you couldn't get a hanging cheapo postal scale (we still, have one or two buried here some place), then 'lids' were sold as 3-finger, 4-finger, etc. Ball-parked. Grass was cheap enough that specific weights of 28.35 grams (+/-) per oz. wasn't even a discussion topic.
Only in larger quantity did specific gram, lb., or kilo weight come into question.
"The Black Market taught an entire generation of high school drop outs the metric system, and standard conversion equivalents." or something like that. ;^>)

whiteboards are quite remarkable
I´ve heard that the MAD Magazine was named after the Madison Avenue, where their Office/Place was in the beginning.
