Spent an hour on the phone with Amazon.com trying to figure out what the frak was going on.

I hate raccoons . We had two get into our attic . That was an ordeal getting them out . We rented a trap and opened up part of the siding . We then we put a chunk of peanut butter inside ( they love peanut butter ) and out they came . We didn't kill them even though I was thoroughly pissed because they kept me awake for two nights . we drove them miles out of town and let them loose .Last I saw they were headed for Texas !
Check your mail. I'm sending you a box of scorpions...
I am SO proud of this creation...I had to post a photo.
I proudly present...NY style thin crust pizza
I sauteed baby bella mushrooms in canola oil, and used frozen store bought (made by a local traditional Italian bakery) pizza dough.
No more homemade pizza dough for me. I'll glady pay for the pros' recipe.
I put TONS of mozz cheese on it.
It smells FABULOUS.
I have no idea of how one would keep raccoons away in a humane manner.
Indeed. After all of the things that the little bastards have destroyed of mine I frequently have revenge fantasies that involve axle grease, electricity, barbed wire, little squeals of agony and the smell of burning fur.You have inserted an unnecessary qualification ...

Did some cleaning and tidying this morning. We have friends coming over tonight for dinner, and I'm the designated cook this time. So... BBQ is fired up, and I've trimmed and prepped some ribs St. Louis style and popped them in to smoke for several hours.
I haven't done BBQ ribs in about 35 years, but it's all coming back to me... Yum!
Anyway, the Sandhill Cranes are beginning to show up (Sandhill Crane Migration - Annual stop over at Platte River in Nebraska - Pictures - Video - Maps - Viewing Tips - Crane Info).
We were treated to the aerial acrobatics of about seven or eight flocks (8-10 birds each) of these huge (wide wing-span) birds on the hundred mile drive along the river. What an incredible sight... one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.
II recorded it, so you get to listen to the first song of the night (lucky you guys!): Cute And here's another for you jazz fans: On Green Dolphin Street.
Last night we stayed in North Platte, Nebraska on our way home. We had planned to visit the Platte River of Nebraska around the end of October this year, (Those plans are probably out the window now because friends of ours booked (them and us) on an Amtrak trip from Reno NV to Annapolis MD around the same time.)

It amazes me how one person can end up with so much stuff! Frank has been amazed at how much he accumulated, too. Moving is a great time to cut back and to work towards a more minimalistic existence.
PS. I checked out trombone al's music post. Neat stuff, must be a really talented guy. Love the music. I wish he would tell me more about himself and how many instuments he plays. Come on Al inform me. All the other folks know but I'm in the dark here.
Cou you tell us the recipe, and your technique in detail?
It sounds very good.
Ha
Ooookay. Gonna take me a long time to get rid of that mental image!One weekend, went to a wedding of the daughter of a friend of SO's... and whores doovers out the wazoo...
Did you stay in that sweet little campground by the sweet little community zoo?
Hunting?? Do these wonderful, beautiful creatures end up on the table or is this another of those "thrill of killing something" events?
...where is the recording of that vocalist you are always on about?
