Barber Shop Talk

@syd that's bad. My cat is named Kitten because she will always be my baby. I came back home in the wee hours she welcome me. After a while she wasn't around so I go to check my bed? She's there under the covers (am single) bed is hers and mine so she wants her wet breakfast. I freaking forgot to get canned cat food so I had to meke the trip to the corner gas station. Ya cat food 'pate' on my list

This cat...I was gifted by a homeless person. Kitten was not well and I nursed her to health and am forever attached. Anyway going to get gone for a while I have important things. See yas

Don't like this as I just got home from Dallas. I hate to fly id rather drive

I fired up Pink Floyd’s “Relics” last night, a collection of their early material when Syd Barrett still had enough brain juice to write songs. Some great tracks with plenty of psychedelic parts. Arnold Layne, Interstellar Overdrive, See Emily Play, etc.

@Westside-Steve no. This activation is controlled by man bots with man boobsMessing with ya. I'm going to Dallas this weekend and have to return back to Illinois. Have a card show going to drive there and head west after that I really don't have a plan. Stay coolWanting a winter get a way spot in AZ maybe New Mexico. I don't know yet we'll see. I have an apartment building and converting one apartment with another one. It should take months so I'm just floating out there for a while

Not looking to win but as long as I beat gumby73 is my Superbowl

If whoever wins, if I don't have it I can get it. Some of you are so old. If I have to trek a dig somewhere in the middle east to find a card etched on the side of a rock I'll find it

Not worrying about a draft I'm 58 years old

I really enjoy this podcast and like to listen in my card room preparing for a card show or sending orders . I laugh all the time very funny check it out sometime. If you're already familiar you already know

I'll try to rack my brain. As a working hobby I sell vintage ball cards and have a lot to catch up on. I'll check in Sunday

@one-post-from-the-truth said:@syd I've heard of her just don't listen to pop stars or rap hip hop. I'm an oldhead. She is kind of attractive I guess. Back in the day she would've made a perfect Hooters employee. Panty hose leggings and allHooters Thats Funny , I would rather listen to Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac Blues Band

@syd said:and some people should not take drugsOf course. That would be nuts.

In the pioneer days/civil war days, dried and roasted dandelion and chicory roots were used to make coffee.Check it out. If we ever have a national problem with food for whatever calamity might happen, there is food all around us -growing wild. Chicory is a very easy to identify plant. I've harvested a bag of curly dock seeds to make flour. Haven't tried that one yet. lolbut if coffee goes very high for whatever reasons, or the democrats cause inflation to explode, the ability to save money will be important.I've posted elsewhere about dandelion tea, dandelion blossom fritters, as for any plant, having a definite proof of the identify of plants is important, some of themhave poisonous lookalikes. Many are easy and safe to find if you know what you are doing.You can download "Picture This" and "Seek" on your phones - a cross reference and ALSO knowing what to look for will help greatly.(btw, Picture This - has a subscription, if you don't want to try opening it twice before it opens the third time)).This is just a small example.https://www.wikihow.life/Make-Chicory-Coffee

I never got around to posting some pics of our trip out west with friends.This is just a facebook video - but it's real.and they are not "buffalo" - they are BISON.we have video of them walking right past our car. A bison can jump about six feet in the air,run about 32-35 mph from a bolt, and can weigh about 2000 lbs.Dangerously powerful. I'll start posting some of our pictures/videos in the next few days.Male bison (bulls) can weigh up to 2,000 pounds, and females (called cows) can weigh up to 1,000 pounds. Bison calves weigh 30–70 pounds at birth. National Park Service Department of the Interiorhttps://www.facebook.com/reel/1301027065304028

@jax said:There's probably more or better stories on the NFL lying about player health but this was a good watch.(5 min story stretched to 20)That's a very sad story Jax. Sometimes you have to wonder how much being on steroids almost the entire time he played in the NFL (17 seasons) also led/contributed to his condition or at least enabled him to remain strong/heavy enough play 2-3 times as many seasons as the average OL starter in the NFL. I attached a few more cut and pastes. When I watched the game as a fan, I never had any idea that a very dedicated "Pro" making numerous Pro Bowls for an NFL Dynasty had such a depessing story brewing behind the scenes. Unlike other Steelers at the time - he wasn't a dirty player nor did he seem to be a loud mouth. it just doesn't seem fitting to know the NFL version of Superman died of a heart attack at 50 years of age.

https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-lifeguard-speaks-heartstopping-ocean-rescue-love-what-doLifeguards save young boy, 5 years old, as he's pulled unconscious from oceanTwo lifeguards began CPR on child as soon as they found him unconscious Being WSI qualified as I was back in the day, I am in awe of the courage and dedication of first responders like this.16 yrs old, watch the video - that surf is not to be taken lightly. In the service, we had church retreats and I was elected the lifeguard so we could swim in the lake. It's a ton of responsibility - Thank God for heroes like this. Wow.

@calfoxwc said:Saw this bird, I thought it was a kind of parrot - we wondered if someone's bird got loose.But no, it's this one:They are migratory, sing beautifully, and winter over in Central America.They do breed and live in N. Ohio. Never heard of it before - Rose-breasted Grosbeak !https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Rose-breasted_Grosbeak/id Pretty sure I saw one of those early this morning on my brother's bird feeder in Estes Park. Others I've seen this visit include magpies and on a walk this morning several bluebirds, lots of rabbits and the requisite Elk and deer. Haven't seen coyotes this visit yet, but sure at some point I will. Been taking the lower walks the first two days before heading into the higher ones next Monday with my grandson (who can swim for two hours at a time across a lake near our home in Texas). Stamina is not a problem for him, but I need the lower hikes to build up my lung intake for higher hikes. Going across the divide tomorrow and will likely see moose along the way. Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep if we get real lucky.
