NO FLY? NO BUY!
Vis-a-vis the horror in Orlando, I’ve listened to all the explanations by the FBI. How it isn’t their fault, there was nothing they could do. It was too difficult to keep track of this guy. I don’t believe it. Sorry,… Read More ›
STILL FUCHSIAS
Even the dogs don’t want to go outside. Hard to argue with them. The weather is cool and bright and normally, they’d be outside romping and barking, but instead, they are lolling around the living room. It could be that… Read More ›
CORN AND SOME MAIDENS – MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE
MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #63 : LEARN PHOTOGRAPHY from PhoTrablogger It’s still a horror show outside and I’m stuck in the house until the world stops tilting at this weird angle. Life has become surreal. Taking out the trash, or opening the… Read More ›

LIFE IN A POST-APOCALYPTIC SMALL TOWN
I always thought it would be zombies. Lurching dead people yearning to eat my brain, shambling around moaning. But it isn’t. Nope, it’s caterpillars. Gypsy moth caterpillars. Coming not to eat me (so far), but anything that’s green and growing…. Read More ›
THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE UGLY … UPDATED!

ANOTHER MIND-BLOWING DOCUMENTARY FROM MICHAEL MOORE – PART 1 by ELLIN CURLEY

UNDERSTANDING YOUR PINGBACKS
