I wish I had a couple bucks for every older digital UNCO II timer my local utility has fried with their gray-outs and flickering power surges upon turning power back on.
So I've now used my -last- back-up digital timer, tossed the collector's issue of an UNCO II timer in the re-use area bin, begged forgiveness from the Ghost Train Haze #1 for her having endured an unplanned 'extended day' during mid-bloom, found a replacement digital timer for back-up in town (until an Amazon order can arrive), to replace the one I just used, and now.... need to make yet another unwanted trip into town.
Murphy!!

First this is right and this is wrong, next this is wrong and this right. I don't understand women, but who does.
Nobody. Ever. But it behooves you greatly to agree with whatever she says. One of life's greatest mysteries.
BTW, I was stationed once near Rye, New Hampshire. I went in what appeared to me to be a fully stocked bar called Rye on the Rocks that was on the coast. I asked for a Rye on the rocks. Bartender said, "We don't have that." I was totally dumbfounded.

Replaced my back-up digital timers yesterday. As has become common with the shop in reference, they gave me a discount approaching 12-15% on 2 of the things (close to the lowest Amazon Prime cost, with free shipping). He treats me right there, routinely, though I don't know why. Maybe I should gift him some hash or a bud some time?
Still raining here; at times harder than others. Gets any more wet, I may need to replace the scuba gear I gave away decades ago, and teach the pups how to breathe under water through a snorkel.
Friend sent in some larger zucchini from the bush the other day, along with other select veggies, before his garden took a nose-dive from his (even greater) volume of rain.
As is common with well-developed, well-fed zukes, the meat and core are still quite viable and tender, though the skin is a fair bit pithy. So today I'm mincing (finely) some carrots, sweet onions, red sweet bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, freshly grated turmeric root, celery, garlic, fresh ground black pepper, sea salt, red pepper flakes, etc., and combining it with a lb. or so of ground moose meat, about 4-5 cups of cooked short-grain brown organic rice, and mixing it all together like one would for stuffed cabbage rolls.
Then scoop out the core of seeds in a half of a zucchini, cut laterally, full length, making for a large, dark green/black canoe of sorts, and filling in the zucchini with the mixture above, then covering in foil, and baking the thing at about 350 f., until the meat has cooked through, and left its juices in the veggies and rice mix.
What we've traditionally called a 'zucchini boat,' capable of feeding a family of three for a couple days, at least.
While that's happening, it's time for another 5-gallons of bat shit tea.
Did someone say that retirement left folks with nothing to do?

Often wished we had dairy goats for that, 6, but then, when seriously stoned, as now, after the glorious mental images of the intelligent little buggers all standing there, I consider what it might be like to feed, heat, and house such luxuries, and am glad that I'm a true procrastinator.
But maybe one day I'll solve both dairy and lawn issues by returning to being a goat roper... Maybe. Or maybe not.
This joint sure is tasty. ;^>)

Turmeric root is some good stuff, Moose. So much better than the powdered stuff that tastes like an old shoe box. Just don't get it on your clothes because its a bitch to get out, which is probably why its used as a dye in certain parts of the world. I hear its a natural anti inflammatory as well, especially if you take it with black pepper, which increases its bio-availability. I take that with a grain of salt though, because I think I read that there is no scientific evidence to back this up.

Hey Squall.
Yep, from what I've seen in the last while, turmeric root and garlic are supposed to be super supplements of sorts, & bitter melon came with very high scores by a friend's father (I believe I've mentioned it before), who was pureeing the bitter melon, raw, and slamming it down in larger 'shooters.' Said the flavor was nothing to celebrate, but that it was near miraculous in lowering his A1C levels.
Murphy would have it that when we picked up the turmeric root at a small Asian grocery I prefer in town, they were plum out of bitter melon. As opposed to being bitterly out of plums.
Still needing to get on-step with that project, as well as a dozen others.

I read on a kratom forum to take both tumeric AND black pepper about half an hour before taking kratom for pain. The two combined is supposed to make the kratom alkaloids more bio-available.
I have heard the same thing about shilajit.
I wonder if all these would work for THC as well?
If you Google shilajit and cannabis there are companies that sell it to supposedly get you higher.
Anyone think these things would make THC more bio-available?

Don't know about availability to the body of other things as a result of the combination of turmeric and black pepper, but another person I spoke with over this immediately last week-end added that their friend combines black pepper with the turmeric they use as supplements.
We just cook with it (which inherently decreases some of the vitality of the stuff, from what I understand, but I almost always include black, white and (hot) red peppers of one sort or another when cooking, so we were already getting the 2 items (turmeric and black pepper) combined anyway..... without knowing we should.
Again, albeit cooked into things, rather than raw..

I have a retired friend who used to be a computer geek...
He gave me a program called Paint Shop Pro 8...
It was a "Try and Buy" program...
I've been using it for more than 10 years now...
Read the day number I'm on from a "60 day evaluation period"...
I'd really like it if someone would let me try one of these new 4-wheel-drive, off-road motor homes on a similar test sampling of the product. I'd promise to provide a really thorough review..
Note to self: when there's tilling to do in the spud field, mushroom medium to construct and sterilize, and soilless mixes to build, as well as parts for 4-wheeler repairs to get ordered, a mid-day jigger of reposado tequila with lime juice, following a stronger Scot ale, is probably not conducive to productivity.
But such hypotheses may require further research, as I don't wish to be premature or biased in my conclusions.
