Guy's blog about life with pets in northern mich.

Did you know that 2.6 billion, (repeat, 2.6 BILLION!) people have no toilet? By no toilet, I mean not even an outhouse, a pit, or a pail. They prefer to defecate from a footbridge or a shoreline to make use of the nearby water. This is because those who don’t own a toilet, also own no toilet paper. In India, more people own cell phones than own a toilet. This fact just boggles my mind! Is this due to a profound cultural difference? It must be something like that, because many of those without a... Sign in to see full entry.

I posted this back in March of '09, and if you are newer to Blogit than that, you probably haven't yet seen this. If you read prolifically, as I do, after a year or so, everything becomes practically brand new, with very few exceptions. Anyway, I hope that you enjoy this. Guy Seriously: WELL OKAY, MAYBE NOT. W alking can literally add minutes to your life! This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $7000 per month. My grandpa started walking five miles...

Two Choices What would you do?.....you make the choice. Don't look for a punch line, there isn't one. Read it anyway. My question is: Would you have made the same choice? At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its Dedicated staff, he offered a question: 'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything... Sign in to see full entry.

A whole lotta truth here.... Old Farmer's Advice: Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong. Keep skunks and bankers at a safe distance. Life is simpler when you plow around the stump. A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor. Words that soak into your ears are whispered... not yelled. Meanness don't jes' happen overnight. Forgive your enemies; it messes up their heads. Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you. It don't take a very big... Sign in to see full entry.

Wow, at this rate I could hit 750 reads this month. Probably won't read quite as many of my fellow bloggers stuff during the second half of the month, though. I think that previously 666 was the record. Either I am reading faster now, or you are mostly writing shorter stuff! Ha!

Well, our house party is set to occur on June 19 th, next weekend! I’ll be frenziedly spending the next several days attempting to take care of the last minute things like furniture, beds, kitchen table & chairs, a couch, smoking of four or five chickens, thawing of four or five slabs of ribs, to be barbequed, the lawn cut again, preparing those tasty little rolled up cream cheese and cold-cuts tidbits on a toothpick, arranging for a keg or perhaps two, buying a gallon of vodka and a variety of...

Last week, I was watching “Heartbreak Ridge,” with Clint Eastwood. I have this irrational belief that both Clint and I are immortal, even though I know for a fact, that Clint ISN’T. I was shocked and dumbfounded when a bunch of horny women KILLED him in “The Beguiled.” For years after that, I seem to have wiped all memory of that horrible movie from my mind. It was either that, or go mad, I suppose. We have all seen Clint survive being HANGED, SHOT REPEATEDLY, stomped in a stampede, hanging off... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, I'm NOT the church lady, so let's pull the chain tied to the axle, and to a post, on the next cop car we see waiting at a speed trap. It worked in AMERICAN GRAFITTI! Or was it ANIMAL HOUSE? My boss sent me this yesterday. I had seen something similar in the past, but I think the person in the earlier posting, was the Pope. Regardless, you may get a chuckle out of this, and I hope you do. Guy Billy Graham was returning to Charlotte after a speaking engagement and when his plane arrived... Sign in to see full entry.

LADIES!!! Remember...a layer of dust protects the Wood beneath it. 'A house becomes a home when you can write 'I love you' on the furniture.' I used to spend at least 8 hours every weekend making sure things were just perfect 'in case someone came over' Finally I realized one day, that no-one came over; they were all out living life and having fun! NOW, when people visit, I don't have to explain the 'condition' of my home They are more interested in hearing about the things I've been doing while... Sign in to see full entry.

Based on an old posting, one that doesn't ever seem to get any better with the passing of time. Nothing ever seems to change for the better. Does everybody ( anybody? ) remember the herbicide Paraquat? It was a scientifically proven carcinogenic herbicide, one that was sprayed upon growing marihuana plots, back in the bad-old drug paranoia days of the early 1970’s, to kill the illicit plants and hopefully, eventually to kill all of those long-haired, slimy, smelly, unkempt, criminal, lowlife,...
