I am one of the ten chosen to play this game ! I feel it will be fun to do!

Yes.


Now Mah Questions:

1. Which do you prefer? Television or literature? Meaning, do you prefer to be able to visually see everything that's going on or do you like to incorporate your own imagination?

( I do!)

6. Sexual intercourse in film, TV and literature: yay or nay?

I don't have cable so I can't answer this.

10. Have you ever had a premonition into the future? If so, give details.
( Yes my Son in-law's and daughter's death.  I dreamt of two  zombies being let out of an old Cadillac at the end of their street. I watched them stumble to the driveway of my daughter's house where the zombies stop and stood just watching the house. Each night this dream would repeat and more and more details would appear such as my son in law driving the car through them, my daughter mowing the lawn being un aware of the two zombies. Then one night the one zombie jerked awake . My son in law then saw the zombies , went with the awakened zombie and walked down the street to get into an old Cadillac. I awoke after this dream to go get a glass of water and picked up the wireless phone only to have it ring in my hands. I saw it was the police department. They called to notify me, they found my son in law dead and that we need to come down to identify him. Needless to say now the dreamed continued with remaining zombie just watching my daughter's house.  Until the night of her passing. That night in the dream the remaining zombie jerked awake turned to grin at me and he walked into the house grabbing my daughter and dragging her to the same old Cadillac which reappear at the end of the street. I awoke  got out of bed and went to the front door of my house only to have the Sherriff pull up at 3 a.m. into my driveway and to tell me my daughter took her life.)

Fake Deviants

2 min read
A teacher in New York was teaching her class about bullying and gave them the following exercise to perform. She had the children take out a piece of paper and told them to crumple it up, stomp on it and really mess it up, not to rip it. Then she had them unfold the paper, smooth it out and look at how scarred and dirty it was. She then told them to tell it they're sorry. Now, even though they said they were sorry and tried to fix the paper, she pointed out all the scars they left behind. And that those scars will never go away no matter how hard they tried to fix it. That is what happens when a child bullies another child, they may say they're sorry, but the scars are there forever. The looks on the faces of the children in the classroom told her the message hit home. Copy and paste this if you are against bullying.

Let's see who will actually re-post this. This is a test to see who's paying attention. This is a test to see how many people list actually pay attention. Copy and re-post in your own journal. Let's see who the real people are. Re-post this if you care about this kind of situation. Don't reply... just copy and paste this in a new bulletin as "Fake Deviants".

Having suffered being bullied growing up. It remains a subconscious fear even to this day.

Brisket Day

1 min read
Brisket day here at the house. 

Sometimes one's talent take you into the culinary world and you become rewarded for such endeavours.  I entered into a brisket contest in my hometown for the first time and won!!
so now I am the go to person in the family for such meals and today is no exception. I have to chuckle to myself about this as I never have cooked brisket before and 3 months ago when this contest happened it was truly my first time. A lot of people would not and don't believe it is my first go at this world of barbecue, I am hooked to say the least.

Sometimes my job does take me to wonderful places and this is one of them!!
I was able to go through the BlueRidge Mountains in North Carolina and explore! In my treks through this lush lanscape I came upon deer, wild turkey, woodpeckers, many woodland animals. birds and plants. I saw plantation manors, old cabins and old cemetaries that were left to Father Time as it's caretaker. It was a wonderful time! I will be posting more pictures here in the future.
