Just had a 'phone call, ten minutes ago, informing me that one of the guys who works part-time behind the bar in the local pub, has been found dead, at home.
He hadn't turned up for a meeting at his normal work-place yesterday, and hadn't been seen for around 24 hours, and hadn't shown up for his 'shift' at the pub this evening, so the Police were called and entered his house, where they found him in bed.
He's one of the chaps who shared my 60th Birthday party three years ago, being one day older than me, and I only saw him on Thursday afternoon, when he asked if I'd be coming to the pub, as I haven't been for a while, and people were asking after me.
I told him I'd see him there on Saturday night .....
 
More shocking than anything else as, apart from him perhaps carrying a little extra weight, he always seemed fit and healthy.
Just off to the pub now, a lot earlier than originally intended, to attend the wake.
 
I would have to venture that the sight of Secretary of State Kerry, swaying and lip synching to James Taylor singing "You've Got a Friend" and wishing 'Hugs" to the French people may have been 'annoying' if it wasn't just plain pathetic.
 
This must be the season for deaths. This is all I've heard everywhere. My father-in-law also passed away. The way they deal with the dead in Russia is very different than what I've seen in the States.
 
Took my second flying lesson this evening. Unfortunately it was down the basement steps when my week ankle gave way 3 steps up. of course both hand were full of ice fishing equipment and they went flying as well. Thank goodness I don't use a spear for fishing in the Winter months. Now I have a sore ankle, sore wrist, sore back and sore knee.
Anyone want to take an insurance policy out on me, I'm sure it will pay off sooner or later.

P.S. My first flying lesson was over the handlebars of my Motorcycle when it came to a sudden stop after piling the rear bumper of a minivan. Not fun, but it probably looked pretty spectacular to the witnesses.
 
Listening to the pathetic BBC covering the anniversary of the Holocaust today. These prats are English and make their living speaking English and communicating in English as they were taught to do at their English Universities studying English. Why did they repeatedly say to the survivors of Auschwitz and other camps that their accounts were "unbelievable" and "incredible" . Their accounts are a historical fact that is hard to stomach but just because it is hard to listen to don't go into "sport" mode and start throwing around words that are completely inappropriate. The same plonkers were discussing a frightening rise in Anti Semitism without once mentioning the religious group responsible.
 
Saw Governor Twit on the telly describing how "complicated" it is balancing the needs of a stinking fish over the needs of people here in the valley. We have one H*ll of a drought going on with a need for water to keep our farmers from going under and the eco-pansies do everything to keep us from building more dams to provide for our needs. If those turds are so environmentally conscious, lets tear down Hetch Hetchy and restore that valley back to what it was before the dam was built.

That delta smelt, or whatever it's called, has invaded the aquaduct system...it doesn't belong there. Why the eco-terrorists persist in protecting an invasive species defies logic.

And the core problem of the aquaduct system, is that it was designed to deliver water to the state's agricultural regions, not provide water for cities.

I think the best thing we could ever do for this state, is get rid of the eco-terrorists, get rid of Governor Moonbeam and his crowd and put a lid on transplants that keep flooding in from all over.
 
Went to move a cup of enamel thinners, so that I wouldn't knock it over whilst replacing tools - and knocked it over, flooding the entire work bench !
Bl**dy amazing how far liquid can flow - B*gg*r !!!
The whole room now stinks of thinners !
