    That's the Way It Crumbles, Cookie-Wise

    There is a long nail that passes through the rain gutter into the side of the house right above the deck. I've been watching it for months. It has been slowly backing its way out of the house. It was almost ready to fall out. The step ladder was right inside the kitchen door, so I pounded the...

    This reminds me of the cat they ran through the pneumatic tubes across New York City in the late 1890s, to test out a new postal delivery system. The Cat that Christened the New York City Post Office Pneumatic Mail Tubes (Similar principle to Elon Musk's Hyperloop proposal, btw)

    Two recent visits by the hawk. Once on the fence and once on the neighbor's deck. I hear a hawk screaming a lot. I think there is a baby close by, somewhere. The neighbor's deck is less than 20 years old, and the flooring is already being replaced. Mine will be 43 years old in September...

    A better look from way down in the back yard. That piece of aluminum wasn't that far from the dormer. Remembered the fishing rod. Reeled it in close enough to grab from inside. It is 10 feet long. Miraculously it got up there with only one small kink, which I hammered out.

    Can you see this little tree? It was transplanted there one year before the fence. It has a tag on it so the fencers wouldn't trample it. Has to be fall of 2023. Growth from early summer 2024 to July, 2025. I should give it a name. Won't know if it's male or female for at least 10 more...

    It is 3:00 am, and I just finished vacuuming and dusting the stairs. The whole day was wasted doing nothing, and I felt guilty. Started a load of laundry and wheeled the trash to the road for pickup tomorrow, all after midnight. An advantage to living alone. A piece of the aluminum cladding...

    What video are you watching on YouTube?

    Folks splitting logs. It's hard to stop watching. :confused: (Ignore clickbait title and thumbnail)

    The Best Country Singer From Every State

    Although he was born in Kentucky, Grandpa Jones got his start in my home town ( Akron, Ohio), where he lived during his teenage years. He began singing country music tunes on a local radio show on WJW. Are you from Dixie?

    I like Anny Ondra. She was also in Hitchcock's Blackmail (1929).

    The sink has to dry out completely, including any water that might have seeped into hairline cracks, before coating it with resin. I didn't want to mess with the plumbing until there was a backup plan, in case this sink can't be saved. I've never had much luck with plumbing, but lots of...

    Grocery Delivery Services

    I've never used grocery delivery services. I don't mind grocery shopping. In fact I rather enjoy it when the stores are not crowded, as long as the cart moves smoothly with no squeaks. ;) Checkout is often an adventure. I don't even mind loading them in the car. What I DON'T like is taking...

    Professions You Would Have Never Done Or Tried, But Didn't Like

    I wouldn't like to be any kind of salesman. Especially one who works on commission. Never tried it. I wouldn't want to try and start my own small business. I think I'd like to have worked on an assembly line---one that required you to learn a skill. A job you could forget about when you...
