        Good mornin’, Texan! It sure does look lovely in photos. I’ll be wearing barrier island costuming and flip-flops to the coffee klatch today, and bringing a set of these….

      Morning Lucille. I visited, and loved, Jekyll Island when I was a kid. My uncle and aunt lived there.

        Good day, Menagerie! For some reason, visiting islands is enchanting. Be fun to live in a 1890 Jekyll Island house like this….

        …and look out at this romantic-as-all-get-out scenes….

      We lived near there for several years and I thought St. Simons Island was a magical place to visit. That is, except for the giant ticks that fell on you out of the trees. 🙄

    Good mornin’, and happy Monday! I hope those in the path of the storms are hunkered down and safe. If anyone here is in California, I hope you are just about finished packing to get out of there. Here’s a modern-day sleek looking version of an old stand-by. Keep your head on a swivel and carpe’ your coffee!

    National Earl Day – Earl Scruggs, Earl Baltes, Earl Warren, Earl Monroe

    National Donald Duck Day

    National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day – my friends grandmother in Utah had a rhubarb plant and dutifully made this pie every year. I avoided it after the first bite.

    Good morning all,

    Hope everyone has had their coffee.

    A warning about the current state of AI, and a new initiative to help tame it.

    Glad to see it, but will it stop “private initiatives”?

    Good afternoon Stella and Wee,

    Here’s a short video about some well-trained horses. They were in the middle of rioters, then this happened:

    The police and their mounts showed great control.

    For violence against horses alone they should all be dragged to the paddy wagons then thrown in jail without bail. Animal cruelty is deranged and horrifying.

    Good afternoon Lucille,

    I found the same video at another link. Those horses performed well.

    The rioters are being told that such actions receive attention and that violence can be use to direct politics toward their agendas. Nothing compassionate about them.

    For a change of pace here is a Donald Duck video, “Donald Duck’s Crime”. Definitely a different view then.

    “A campaign to dismantle civilization”. This is what we were discussing yesterday. This is an excellent explanation of what is happening in Cali.

    Thank you, Stella,

    Order from chaos. It just doesn’t happen. Order has come from the application of “laws” from the creation of the universe forward.

    Chaos is wanting to rule from hell, when you can’t rule in heaven. Lucifer’s rules: steal, kill and destroy.

    It’s all on full display.
