    Thanks  for the concern. Life has really taken a turn lately with caring for my wife’s sister and her husband in a remote area of north San Diego county, both with terminal illnesses and then dealing with the dysfunctional offspring and the 31 year squatters and their families and many offspring. I could write a book that would make J D Vance’s Hillbilly Elogy look like preschool. Thought it would get better with one of them passing but it’s only gotten worse and the potential for violence between the parties is very real and getting worse by the day. So needless to say I don’t have much time for the Saloon, oh and cell phones and internet don’t work up there most of the time.

    The worse part of waiting, is after....Everyone will want something of what have own...Sure hope they planned well on that end.....

    I recently had a 10lb ham and I couldn’t get any stations on it at all!! I even tried a coat hanger for an antenna!🙄

    Did you turn the ham to tune in????

    I had that issue and STILL remember that “Bruce Jenner” in the background!

    Plus I was thinking: or BRUCE LEE, maybe?

    One is dead and the other.....Well, different....

    And do not forget Alfred E. Neuman for President.....

  8. I was at Bordertown a few years back...Hit the food vendor for a meal....Gave the young lady a 20....I watch her count it back like we were taught years back...She did like a pro....I told her I was very impressed and proud to see here do it....I still remember that today....Something you do not see very often if they could even do it.......

    This is all I was going to say. Cut myself at the cabin and my finger was still bleeding the next day. Blood was running out the first day. Scary stuff for us both.

    If that bad and alone....Knife blade in the fire is next best thing....Might sting a little....

  10. Get a box of band-aids...Every time I hit my hands on something, I would start bleeding...I always keep them hand and easy to find....I needed them....Wife not happy with blood on everything....Too much washing....

    The way that was phrased - the platypus does this and is that - made it sound like all of them laid eggs and were venomous.

    If they have friends in California...They might go both ways....
