Rat and Mole Club, my Eye.

file this under "Grumpy Old Man", but there is so much on tv now which
is pure b.s.

there's a story on this morning about the Rat and Mole Club... woman
saying these rats have been bred for centuries to be tame, unlike sewer
rats.

But wait (I sez)... .... CENTURIES? Not in the "West". How about
India... the Temple Rats... but they were not "bred to be tame", they
just happen to live in the temple.

She is "building a story".

I see so much news which is just story building... and they're not
worthy stories... they're just filling time. Making up an interesting
story. Taking a small grain of something & making it into a story.

History Channel does this too... it's entertainment, not history.

really "neo-lounge" almost elevator, but it varies.

pretty good.

You call it Country, I call it Bad Rock 'n Roll

Listening to the Whip http://wwhp.com this morning.

That's what was just playing. I remember Don saying "that's not
country". Well he of course was right. BUT... wwhp plays everything.
Real country, fake country, western, country-western, just plain rock
& roll. etc. "Both kinds of music: country AND western"

Having fun.

Cleaning house with "mom"

Now we're taking a break.

Saw the Bald Eagles Again

The bald eagles were out by Hild Road again today. Working on that
dead deer. Must be a bad time for them.

Had a closer look at the one that does not have the white head... it
must be a female or a young one.

I suppose that with the power of the internet, I could surely get an
answer to that. :-)
