Scary 911 call

Bucks of the Northwest

When we moved to Idaho, the first thing we did was go visit my Dad and Mom while they were on a hunting trip. I mean literally, we drove to Idaho from California, unpacked the van, spent the night and took off for a hunting camp, 100 miles away.

The guy who they were hunting with is named Robert. He is in the record books as shooting the largest Mule Deer, in the last 20 years.

He has produced a video that you should watch.

Don't Take Your Camera to NY

City May Seek Permit and Insurance for Many Kinds of Public Photography - New York Times: "Some tourists, amateur photographers, even would-be filmmakers hoping to make it big on YouTube could soon be forced to obtain a city permit and $1 million in liability insurance before taking pictures or filming on city property, including sidewalks.

New rules being considered by the Mayor’s Office of Film, Theater and Broadcasting would require any group of two or more people who want to use a camera in a single public location for more than a half hour to get a city permit and insurance.

The same requirements would apply to any group of five or more people who plan to use a tripod in a public location for more than 10 minutes, including the time it takes to set up the equipment.

Julianne Cho, assistant commissioner of the film office, said the rules were not intended to apply to families on vacation or amateur filmmakers or photographers."

Mommy Cliques

The Reign of Ellen: Mommy Cliques:
..."I read this article called 'Mommy Cliques' in BabyTalk magazine. It was in a big stack of parenting magazines that my friend Mindy gave me, which I keep next to Anna's bathtub and peruse while she's splashing away ('Uh-huh, honey, Mommy sees you. Aren't you amazing, uh-huh' [lick fingers, flip page.]) I've found that most of these magazines simply serve to freak one out ('Is Your Baby Reaching All Her Milestones Or Are You A Horrible Mother?') and guilt one into buying baby products ('Does Your Baby Have The New Peg Perego Pacifier Or Are You A Horrible Mother?',) but this particular article caught my attention."...

Do Something Good This Thanksgiving.

..."a fellow blogger and good friend of ours is having a hard time of it right now. Jennifer at Demure Thoughts has spent the last two weeks in and out of the hospital with her five-year-old daughter ill from all sorts of serious maladies-- kidney infections, pancreatitis, and now, surgery to remove her gall bladder and appendix. Jen and her family are spending the holiday in the hospital while her daughter gets better."...

I woke today...

And felt your side of bed.

The covers were still warm- where you'd been layin'.

You were gone...

My heart was filled with dread.

You might not be sleepin' here again.

It's alright, 'cause I love you.

And that's not gonna change.

Run me round, make me hurt again and again.

But I'll still sing you love songs

Written in the letters of your name-

And brave the storm to come,

For it surely looks like rain.

Did you ever waken to the sound

Of street cats makin' love

And guess from their cries

You were listenin' to a fight?

Well, you know...

Hate's just the last thing they're thinkin' of.

They're only trying to make it- through the night.

.

I only want to hold you.

I don't want to tie you down.

Or fence you in the lines

I might have drawn.

It's just that I've gotten used to

Havin' you around.

My landscape would be empty

If you were gone ~

.

.

.

These are the days of turning toward the innerself,

of increasingly taking possession of oneself,

which, under apparent repose,

goes on in the most intimate workings

of the heart

Pray That it Never Happens Again

Every year at this time, I turn on the TV with a sense of trepidation.
Let's all pray that something like the 9/11 tragedy Never Happens Again.

WE ARE ALL TEACHERS,
AND WHAT WE TEACH
IS WHAT WE NEED TO LEARN,
AND SO WE TEACH IT
OVER AND OVER AGAIN
UNTIL WE LEARN IT.
~

r _ e _ t _ u _ r _ n _ i _ n _ g

Why were you so haunted no matter what you tried?

Even when you laughed it sounded like a cry.

Did you ever try to leave it all-
Then untie the truth to prepare for each call?

How'd you reinvent your shadow-

But never tell your head?
Maplessly test-driving life -yet again.

Adding Jah devotions to sneaky lethal potions.
Leaving some Self out, is dangerous with doubt.

One more brick for each misconstrued thought.
Exhaustion feels cold- were you always freezing hot?
Miles of tears - never get to cry.
You emphasized Hello thinking you were sly.

But when you’re in your next go-round,

Goodbye's are worth a try.

The doubles don’t mean jack, and you’re not under attack.
Now we’re closer than we were, ‘cause this time you’re not playing “her”.
Every spark will reignite- we’ll practice ‘til it’s right.
If the wild cards are missing, please take that as a blessing.
Let’s decipher broken pieces, pocket Thank You’s and the Pleases!
In one of your books, I read
That you won’t tamper with my head-
And whatever happened to the three wisest kin?
If I learn to Be Here Now

Will I always Be Here Then ?

"Protect Your Children from Internet Predators
The problem of internet predators is a subject often discussed on this site as well as in the media in general. It is a very serious problem, but one from which loving parents can protect their children. All that is required is a little practical education of both parents and children....

In order to maintain peace and harmony with everyone,

you wear many different masks,

depending on whom you’re with.

By doing this, you forget your own inner truth

and what it is that you truly believe.

Friction between your outer, lively, and communicative

outside and your soft, tender, vulnerable insides

make it difficult to find the solution.
You have the answers just trust your
Self

This sounds like a cool addiction - - -

- I AM WOMAN -

~I shave my legs, I sit down to pee.

And I can justify any shopping spree.

Don't go to a barber, but a beauty salon.

I can get a massage without a hard-on.

I can balance the checkbook,

I can pump my own gas.

Can talk to my friends,

about the size of my ass.

My beauty's a masterpiece,

and yes, it takes long.

At least I can admit,

to others when I'm wrong.

I don't drive in circles, at any cost.

And I don't have a problem,

admitting I'm lost.

I never forget, an important date.

You just gotta deal with it,

I'm usually late.

I don't watch movies,

with lots of gore.

Don't need instant replay,

to remember the score.

I won't lose my hair,

I don't get jock itch.

And just cause I'm assertive,

don't call me a bitch.

Don't say to your friends,

oh yeah, I can get her.

In your dreams, my dear,

I can do better!

Flowers are okay,

but jewelry's best.

Look at me you idiot...

not at my chest!!!

I don't have a problem,

with expressing my feelings.

I know when you're lying,

you look at the ceiling.

DON'T call me a GIRL,

a BABE or a CHICK

I am a WOMAN.

Get it?, you prick!

. L . M . P .

Can you bring me another

I'm not there yet...

Do I seem to remember

How much 'til I forget

Ooh, I

can't

get

high enough,

light enough,

nice enough,

Can you hear me now

'Cuz

I'm

not

doing fine

I'm drowning in my mind again

I was the life of the party

Oh, so you tell me,

I'm drowning in my mind again

Oh, why - does it

These words just come out,
with no gripe to bear.

FACTS about the ongoing murder.

I've learned...

I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.

I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a"life."

I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.

I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.

I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.

I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.

I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.

I've learned that every day, you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch -- holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.

Dear Libra, a friend could receive some bad news, becoming emotional and causing concern among others. The keyword for avoiding misunderstandings is "communication."
~ Last night I had a "dreamvision" that the kids and I were spinning controllably in a truck or something on a slushy freeway at night. As we were missing oncoming traffic and the mountains I calmly explained to them about "moving on" and keepingintouch. This was interrupted when my mom called, waking me up. - I already knew, but the words "who died" still came out. ~
Stuck staring numbly through this monitor, waiting for something inspirational. This procrastination is going to interfere with my road trip and a piece of visual closure.

- Soul Full of Heart -

A farmer had some puppies he needed to sell. He painted a sign advertising the 4 pups. And set about nailing it to a post on the edge of his yard. As he was driving the last nail into the post, he felt a tug on his overalls. He looked down into the eyes of a little boy. "Mister," he said, "I want to buy one of your puppies." "Well," said the farmer, as he rubbed the sweat of the back of his neck, "These puppies come from fine parents and cost a good deal of money."

The boy dropped his head for a moment. Then reaching deep into his pocket, he pulled out a handful of change and held it up to the farmer. "I've got thirty-nine cents. Is that enough to take a look?" "Sure," said the farmer. And with that he let out a whistle. "Here, Dolly!" he called. Out from the doghouse and down the ramp ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur. The little boy pressed his face against the chain link fence. His eyes danced with delight. As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something else stirring inside the doghouse. Slowly another little ball appeared, this one noticeably smaller. Down the ramp it slid. Then in a somewhat awkward manner, the little pup began hobbling toward the others, doing its best to catch up...

"I want that one," the boy said, pointing to the runt. The farmer knelt down at the boy's side and said, "Son, you don't want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would." With that the little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down, and began rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing so he revealed a steel brace running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe. Looking back up at the farmer, he said, "You see sir, I don't run too well myself, and he will need someone who understands." With tears in his eyes, the farmer reached down and picked up the little pup. Holding it carefully he handed it to the little boy. "How much?" asked the little boy. "No charge," answered the farmer, "There's no charge for love."
