Still recovering from the lack of sleep last week, compounded by a grumpy all-nighting Finn. I have the brainpower of a Gitmo inmate at this point.
How are you all?
Good morning!
Hope all improves during the day.
Some clean-up in the ‘aisle’ on the right would be good.
Lot’s of spam in the store…
The ‘bots are active.
The spam killer is coming soon…yay!
How do you like the new ads?
Well, to be honest, I’m not crazy about the constant movement, but, hey, a guys got to make a buck. I’ll put up with it with no more complaining:)
tonight…the CBs are at their dad’s, BooMan is at the Trivedi-Gerlach debate, and Finny is asleep.
I’m watching the debate and remembering how much I don’t like Jim Gerlach. Time to go decorate his street with “Fire Gerlach” signs again.
Just a quick ‘hi’ after a cool Autumn day spent stacking firewood. So many of the trees have lost their leaves already, when we’re usually just arriving at peak color this week. I blame the late summer drought. We may see some frost tonight.
Hope everyone’s having a good evening!
Lovely picture up above.
Its very colorful here, despite the drought. We should peak this coming weekend, according to the leaf gurus.
Leaf gurus?
😀
Autumn color soothsayers – very big in the tourist industry around here.
I think we’ve already peaked, which is earliest I can recall and the color was really fine — I was surprised.
I am so glad we got that rain but it took down a lot of leaves — at least going by our deck.
This week’s rain/wind is really pulling down the leaves — but there seem to be plenty left. This is definitely a ‘gold’ year — more yellow hues than any other. Wish I had time for photos. It’s lovely, with the heavy gray skies beyond.

Why am I getting a Weight Watchers banner at the bottom. What do they know?
I swear I’m not eating chocolate right now . . . , at least not that much.
I get yarn ads…I wonder why?
Gerber ads for me? Now that’s scary.
LOL.
Imogen always rails at Facebook ads asking if she ‘wants to gets pregnant’. I seem to attract ‘menopause creams’.
Bad Idea T-Shirts is a favorite here. Its paired with Americans Against Earmarks. Interesting;-)
Amazing algorithm – I just clicked a link to diary with Israel in it. When it opened, it had a banner for private tours in Israel up top. Never saw it before. Everything else has been Swiss related in French or (mostly) German (+ the Democrats Abroad banner).
Does Boo get paid for eyeballs or only for click-throughs?
I’m not sure…I’ll ask.
It’s actually [both https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=17470%5D, depending on the ad. But you can’t fool the google. The more clicks I get for pay for click ads that don’t result in sales or the desired action, the less I get paid for click.
Thanks, Ad Blocker Plus now off on Boo.

Beautiful image, Andi. A really nice pair.
😉
Highly eroded but hanging in there. 😉
C-c-cold here! I had to actually put on a jacket. Too cold too soon.
Yeah, man.
We’ve got another biggish storm headed our way from the coast for the weekend, too. Forecasts include the S word.
Stay dry & warm, b2!
And now, back to firewood.
You too, ww! Hopefully that storm will not be as bad as I’ve heard.
I’m getting a slew of republican PAC ads. It’s good to see them throw their money toward a deserving progressive community.
Clicking on some will cost them a few bucks too.
Way cool.
When I’ve received snail mail solicitations from Republican candidates with postage paid envelopes, I’ve stuffed all of it back in the envelope, along with enough other stuff that they’ll have to pay extra, and sent it back to them.
I just opened about 20 windows for some “Anti-Obama wear” site. I hope I earned you some money, Boo, at the expense of some Teapublican.
Bravo, Jim!
My brother attacks conventional wisdom, again.
WTF?
But if second graders were allowed to carry concealed ….
And just think how it much more interesting it would make spelling bees.
Heh.
Ah, yes. The Virginia Tech solution. Why didn’t I think of it?
Yay, the week is almost over! I’m running a workshop today at my client, and I am so happy to say we have all the materials together and ready to go (no small accomplishment). Now, if everyone participates and we can reach a consensus…wish me luck, cause these people are like herding cats.
And then we’re planning to go to pizza night at the semi-local bakery with friends, including Finn’s triplet friends. Hopefully the girls won’t scare him so much tonight; he’s been teething and cranky all week.
What are you all up to?
Happy Friday to you also!!! Yes, I am back again after a long absence.:) I have been so busy with school that I have had to miss a lot of things. LOL I am loving my photography classes and finally think I am getting the hang of things some.
Nice! Is it a digital photography class? I always wonder how they handle teaching that when everyone has a different camera.
Yes it is. Most settings on SLR digital cameras are the same or very similar. Plus the professors are all professional photographers and have lots of knowledge.
Beautiful work, rf! Good to see you!
You’re really coming along, RF. You’ve got a great eye. I looked at the album these were in and especially liked “movement” and the first “head, hands,feet”.
Hi rf69! Glad things are working out for you. Keep on truckin’;-)
Good luck!
Scary Carl ads all over the site. That is a remarkably troubling photo.
We get Pat Toomey here…
I’m not seeing any. I must be blessed.
In fact, the site doesn’t look any different to me at all. Wacky.
Good morning to everone!
I finally got the computer working, but I don’t know how long it will last. It freezes up constantly.
George and I are doing fine. It’s starting to get cold down here. We’re in the low 50’s this morning. I know it’s not that cold to a lot of people, but we’ve have over a hundred and thirteen day of ninety degrees this year. So it’s kind of cold to us.
I hope everyone has been doing fine. It’s frustrating not to be in touch.
Before the computer freezes up, I’ll post this.
Everyone take care,
FM
Hi FM. Good to see you. Thanks for the update, and I hope your computer behaves.
In case you can read this: good to see you, FM. Glad to know you’re well.
As for the computer, it may need its brain washed. A new installation of the operating system. My computer was crashing like mad recently ’til I did that.
Oh, FM! Good to see you!
Glad to see you here and over at my place, FM. I hope you will get a better machine soon or at least develop some love for hanging at the library so we can see you more often.
Family Man! Very good to see you here!
FM! So good to see you! I’m glad that you are well!
We picked up American Splendor to see this weekend. Anyone else doing movies at home?
Nope. Just seven hours of disappointing baseball.
I guess it’s kind of hard to be beaten by a pitcher with a weird-looking beard.
We think he must dye it for it to be that black…grrr.
I think it was drawn on with a magic marker.
No movies this weekend. Just the start of the great leaf cleaning. Sigh.
Just relax & let the earth do it, b2.
😉
Hi & bye, all!
If only I could!
Really? I mean, WOW.
I got sunshine followed by rain, repeat, and throw in the occasional bit of hail. So, Spring as usual, then.
But I’m sure it’s the same thrill as your first time. 😉

Nice shot of su casa.
I’ve always figured if I could just get a person to first see the house from that vantage point, I’d have no trouble selling it … well I might have to figure out a way to hide the length of the drive from them too.
Well, that drive is the selling point if you’re trying to escape from society. 🙂
Hey, maybe I can find someone who just wants the long drive and convince them the house and acreage is a fine bonus. 😉
