Followup to post on wearing hoodies

A bit late, but I have been recuperating from wonderful visit from my sister, her husband and grand-daughter, where we ate out and shopped, shopped, shopped, which was what they wanted to do. And I have had a string of chronic migraines.

As to  my own costs, I just went to a nursery and bought 11 plants for around $22. They included a small lime tree, rosemary, lavender, calla lily, pansy, dill.

Antigua is a UNESCO Heritage city, nothing must be changed, McDonalds has no golden arches

No buildings higher than two stories, streets are cobblestones. McDonald's had to conform, and their restaurant here (more expensive than US I guess, close to $5 for a Big Mac, although it sells as a combo with fries and soft drink.

Simple sign outside.

 

Inside, the standard counter.

Inside, beauty.

BTW, I am not very near the active volcanoes here.

I would think this information is in the public interest. More government snooping, prying, control without any public input.

War in Syria, could lead to WWIII, call your Senator!

Syrian Al-Quaeda-linked rebels are the ones who set off the chemical attack, not Assad.

I called Congressman Brown’s Cleveland office, 216-522-7272, last Friday, and gave the staffer an earful as to my opinions about the possible strike in Syria, Benghazi, the Patriot Act, Homeland Security (and many other federal agencies) buying enormous quantities of hollow point bullets (which I later learned are against the Geneva Convention, yet a year or two ago, one of his staffers unconcernedly told me that yes, they had to get them, because they are supposed to practice with what they are going to use--against whom, us?), habeas co

Walk the Walk: If all who enjoyed Frank's parties would contribute the cost of their daily latte, his property would be safe.

Much has been written here about the shameful way Frank Giglio has been treated and the illegal, not just crooked, way his property was stolen. Now, Lily writes that, although he is now on the monthly pay plan, there is a chance that he might also lose his mother's property. She herself is in terrific pain and so less able to do her usual, magnificant job of helping others.

Essentially, this is what I emailed Sen. Brown, NSA collected it, no doubt, so it is not news

Submitted by Oldroser on Tue, 07/02/2013 - 16:04.

I am furious about what I read. How has our country changed so far, so fast, that this is happening? Our senators and representatives, as well as the government officials, and often the judges, are reprehensible. * * * * Quite some time ago, there were other whistleblowers about the extraordinary NSA surveillance and the immense building they are building in Utah to house it. I wrote you about it then and you said it had been forbidden. Well, they are doing it anyhow! What are you doing about it? Nothing I can see. I agree with those that ask for an investigation.

Phase out US nuclear plants, Fukushima

Submitted by Oldroser on Sat, 05/04/2013 - 19:37.

 I read here that the massive disaster at Fukushima was because the operator was too cheap to keep up needed repairs, and now has no incentive to clean up the disaster. www.washingtonsblog.com/cat/sciencetechnology

What good is community approval when what was approved gets changed?

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 03/04/2013 - 23:59.

 Last year, Councilman Cimperman insisted that ODOT not proceed any further with plans for the Innerbelt Bridge until there was a community- wide meeting for us to consider and approve plans. The plans had previously been approved only by "stakeholders," which were composed of large corporations, no small companies included.

I have always been irritated that I am not considered a stakeholder, even though the bridge is in my front yard.

Is nothing made in US free from GMO?

Submitted by Oldroser on Wed, 02/20/2013 - 00:00.

 If this article is to be believed, very little. Unfortunately, it probably is at least mostly correct.

Luckily they don't have it here, as far as I can tell, in fact much that isn't listed as organic is still really organic per local articlles, and I cook and bake mostly from scratch. I bake much too large a batch for me and share with my neighbors. A young Texas systems engineer neighbor says he can tell.

The fantastically beautiful Jacaranda tree

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 02/18/2013 - 15:41.

 At the Central Park the other day, I was struck by the beauty of one of the many trees in blow (roses are blooming also.) When I asked, I was told that it was the Jacaranda tree and more will be in bloom Holy Week.

Not having had my camera with me, I found this image of it online.  Please click on the link to see it. 

Flowers everywhere

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 02/11/2013 - 00:13.

 I wish I had had my camera the other day. I saw white flowers intermingled with the other colors cascading over a wall when Brody and I walked to the next little town. Almost all the walls are like this.

This is on the road to Guatemala City,

Typical street, see the cobblestones.

Cartoon of my wonderful neighbors and I

 After helping me translate with the carpenter who built the bench and ordering more, we walked a good ways and encountered a street artist doing cartoons.

So I ordered one of the three of us and had it framed.

Brenda says she is not that short.

It really doesn't show Angel's curls well.

But it sure shows I have the Hinkle jowls!
