I think of how much smoother, dependable computers operate today than when getting my first one in the early 90s. My first wife worked in the U of Guelph computer lab(60s) , it was cold to be in that room and the computers spit out cards. It was a big basement room in a university building, big bulky machines everywhere and today my my Mrs telephone would have more capabilities than that whole big room.![]()
End of the road for EV battery maker that raised $15 billion from investors including Goldman Sachs and BlackRock
The Swedish company aimed to become Europe's main EV battery maker and take on Chinese rivals, but filed for Chapter 11 protection in November.www.businessinsider.com
This is an industry that seems to have gotten way ahead of itself pushing out a product that appears largely not totally ready, and at the same time trying to jam it down our throats. Though not in favor of all the EPA changes announced yesterday the one about cars mandates rings. The Venture Capitalists deserve to take the burn. I don't plan on buying a new car in my lifetime and hope that Ms cola will start using my 2nd car once her Doytota hybrid dies. I tried to get her not to buy it. The dual engine maintenance and repair is not simple or cheap. China is selling EV's now for 10K USD. This whole market looks ready to implode, and maybe rise again, as a better Phoenix.![]()
Good after noon OldmanFirst thing, it's always nice when someone cooks for you. Same with my Mrs., steak is one of my Mrs. favorite meals. We find beef can be hard on our digestive systems.
I've never had German Goulash soup, people from this area seem to favor paprika in their cooking. Does you recipe have paprika?
I shell have to check out some recipes I have for it. I have 3 other soups in the planning stage now.

Hell, I probably couldn't breathe at 9000', I think 5 or 6000' is the highest I've ever grown at. Is that big leafed variety grown at that altitude?They will keep them inside until the danger of frost has subsided. Short growing season here so they need to get a head start indoors.
This batch is going to the mountains and going into my a small green house at 9,000 ft above sea level.
like a Red Rubber Ball they come bouncing back to me every year.
Is that right, can't say I have ever grown a clone outside, in 55 years of growing I have never tried a clone outdoors.Since they're clones there's no reveg unless they were induced into flowering
I have watched later plantings catch up to earlier plantings in some cases.When I put mine out too early, they go into flower because of the shorter days then they reveg. The only way I have been able to prevent this is either start them as seeds outside as soon as it’s warm enough or wait till the days are longer before putting clones out.
I had a mechanic say to me once he didn't understand why they didn't use a wind powered generated system as the vehicle would generate it's own power when in motion.Now do solar!
Living at 7,000 ft is easy. 9,000 O2 gets a bit thin, 10,000 it's much thinner, 14K and it's difficult to walk very far, but it can be done... slowly!Hell, I probably couldn't breathe at 9000', I think 5 or 6000' is the highest I've ever grown at. Is that big leafed variety grown at that altitude?

almost perpetual motion, but there's no free lunch.I had a mechanic say to me once he didn't understand why they didn't use a wind powered generated system as the vehicle would generate it's own power when in motion.
I am not knowledgeable to know if this is accurate.
Gardening done. I need to walk but I don’t have the energy……been in a funk all week.
That's funny you mentioned that, I had to do a lot of upgrading at the community college before getting into college. During our Christmas party the students convinced our instructor to show us slides of his days in Africa, it was on one of those slides that him and his x-wife were naked under a waterfall. I think he knew the slide was in there.Looking forward to the pics.
could you do a naked pic under that waterfall today?![]()
Lets see, my furnace was not working this morning, I only have 1 load of laundry not 2 but still have to put clean bedding on. My back is soar. I have portable electric heaters going in 3 rooms, they freak me out as I watched one burst into flames one day.Good after noon Oldman
Hope your day is going as it should.
46 degrees looking forward to going forward!
