Where I live it is very common to see snow in the winter. However God, Mother nature, or what ever controls the weather must have a warped sense of timing. We got more snow today April 16th than all of December and most of the winter. This is normally the time of year spring is in the air not snow flakes.... May be I should of been singing Santa clase is co
Also another channel transmits from the exact same area, because it is in the same building. I can get that one no problem, but the other is horrid...
Actually my dad has cable and the reception isn't much better for that channel even with cable. It may be the transmission strength. It has to be really awful weak though I only live about 3 blocks from where they transmit. I live farther from where ION is transmitted and it comes in better. go figure that one...
Where I live I can't recieve two local channels very well. One of them CBS (Channel 5) is a major local channel, the other is one that was more recently added CW (channel 14). The station claims that interferance from wires or building is the major contributing factor. However since I do not subscribe to cable television I should be getting lousy reception of all my
Me too. I'm also glad the cost of finding out was just the basic vet office fee of $20. It could of been worse.
When I first heard the news of cat and dog food being recalled, because it was killing animals. Like any pet owner I was a bit scared and really concered. Then they said only canned foods had been recalled and I breathed a thankful sigh of relief. For some wierd reason or perhaps fate my cat has always refused to eat the stuff. He does more than turn his nose up and
I took my cat to the vet, because he was losing fur and has a small bald spot near tail. The vet drew some blood and did a scraping and a few tests. The bill was only $60 not bad considering it is a vet bill. Anyhow nothing irregular showed up in tests. Phew good no buying medicine for my cat. However he thought it was diet related and recommended a couple choices in
Today out of the blue I wrote this well very weird poem. There are many of men that think with which that hangs between their legs They think women regard it as an idol made of gold Or that it is the center of the universe and everything gravitates towards it But alas us women think it more a dried shriveled Vienna sausage with mold on it An
Since I thought it a real wasted effort for someone to steal my 50 cent paper, I thought I would see how much effort it taks to collect bottles and actually make a little money. The period of time I conduted the experiment was just a little over a month. The total distance I walked was minamal so I'll say maybe 4 yards if that. On the first day I found half a case of
Actually I'ld rather be on the planet of the apes. It couldn't be much worse then this!
Just when I thought things couldn't get more unreal they have. Either I've been teleported to the plant Slobstonium or to some place totally unreal. Up until yesterday I couldn't go out either door of my residence with out passing a pile of my neighbors trash. Even worse Monday I came home to a plastic bin caked in cat shit and littler right in front of my back stai
What really gets to me is that they go through the extra effort to get up before 6:30 every day (Saturdays included!!) just to steal a lousy 50 cent newspaper. I guess they have nothing better in life to occupy their time. I wish all of us had such time to waste in life!!
Well things have just started to quite down now I have a newpaper thief. Which to me is a little insane. For one reason it seems like a pretty and stupid thing to feel the need to steal. Secondly whom ever is doing this is putting a lot of effort into doing so. They are making it a point to rush out and snag my 50 cent daily paper before most people head off to work
Well I can't afford a house so that is out and I already had the moving nightmare from Hell experience. I wouldn't go through all I had to move again for anything it was the worst experience in my life!! Now that is really saying something, because I even consider some of the not so good things about being in the military far better then that. I do have a very outrageous thrash metal album, it sounds just like somebody screaming at the top of their lun
Why is it that approximately every other place I live I seem to get the neighbors nobody on earth would want? First it was the Bosnian gypsies that still rank as the overall worst neighbors ever. Not only did they make an aweful lot of noise, but they also constantly broke fire codes by smoking in the hallways and proping open firedoors. Now I got blesssed with obno
We'll I've been shopping sort of for two I have a cat. I use regular clay litter and I get a generic large box of baking soda. The total cost for 1 25lb bag of liter and 4lb box of baking soda is $3.50. I usually buy more then 1 of all of the above saving gas on multiple store visits. My cat actually will not eat canned cat food, which saves me even more money. So 1 bag 18lb dry cat food is $7.99 and lasts quite a while since I only have 1 cat. As far
I never had a chance to even get a computer until 2000, but I do remember the 8088. I also remember the very first computer I ever saw being the size of a wall locker. Now that is old....
Well if you can pay $5.75 and see a movie in a regular movie theater that is cheap. I have to wait until major pictures go to the cheap theaters a mantinee around here is $7 and the evening $9 at the regular theater. At the "cheap" theater they're $5. I wind up renting videos occationally . I can rent 2 movies for 5 days and still pay less then $7 figure that one out. Most likely you do have more gray hairs recently I got my hair professionally done a
Today while listening to ABBA and Jefferson Airplane I started reminiscing of the days of yore. You know the days of yikes black and white television and before cable TV existed. Yes I do remember those days. I also remember Z 80 chips, The WANG, The Apple IIIe, The first MAC and the days before the invention of the cell phone. I can remeber when there use to be bil
I know it is a great tool a friend of mine told me about it a while back and it is fantastic for cleaning the junk out of your C drive!!
Oh yes my Old friend DOS. Don't laugh in 1999 I was programing 386's and 486's in DOS and worked with Window's 3.1. I didn't even see a computer with MS Windows 95 until the year 2000. I got my computer for school shortly after that and that had Windows 98 up until a year ago, when a computer genius friend I had helped me get it updated to 98 and added memory to it. It didn't cost much considerering the cost of even a Dell now days I got it upgraded and everthing for less then $300. I saved fo
Actually I know a couple of Vietnese phrases and some Danish as well as Bosnian. I lived in a very diverse building and learned that from the neighbors.
Well in the upgraded modern age and from what I've read in computer magazines I borrow from the library. I found out the following a fairly good computer has a 20GB hard drive. The basic hard drive one will need to possibably be upgrade to MS Vista in the future is a 40GB hard drive, but a majority of computer experts recomend the 80 GB hard drive. For those gamers and computer geeks out there that have money to spluge there are ever very expensive top
I got the cheapest Intenet around I think I only pay $9.95 a month, but I also deal with the fact it is dial-up. My computer is the slowest in the land being around 7 years old and only has a 12.6 GB hard drive. I know egad is hardly the right term.
Well at least I am at the point that no longer, the only pair of shoes I had were a ragged duct tapped together pair of sneakers. I literally think that was all that was holding them together. I've been to almost homeless I lived in a place smaller than a studio appartment and literally tried to live with practically no cash to my name. At least now I have a pair of good winter boots a necessity up north where I live and a good pair of sneakers and a lot of thirfty store clothing. I'm already g
