No rain at all this past week, but the humidity dropped a bit and it was pretty nice overall. The week ahead, however, is supposed to be the hottest yet — upper 90's, with a chance of one or two 100+ days, and heat indexes of 110. I'm not looking forward to that in the slightest, and the national weather says that much of the country east and south of me will be in the same boat. A big heat...

It finally rained. I got a little over an inch a few days ago, but it wasn't much help. All it really did was green the grass up a bit, and increase the humidity. June is usually one of the wetter months, if not the wettest, but not this year. I hope it rains a good amount in July. If it doesn't, I'll be gardening in drought conditions. It's been hot, too.  Heat indexes over 100 lately. It's...

It hasn't rained in almost 3 weeks, not since the remnants of Cristobal blew over. After a crazy amount of spring rain, it's just hot and dry now. Figures, right? - Wednesday - The germination under boards experiment. It worked well. I think I'll start doing it regularly. I'll need to pick up some more boards, though.  Pretty good results for a hot, summer planting....

These are the "White Trash" people that will be voting for Trump ! This is what "Peaceful" actually looks like too ! South Florida to California:

Black Lives Matter Banner.  The Confederate Battle Flag. You wouldn't think that these two have anything in common, and yet both are perfect illustrations of a common problem; when people assign their bias to another persons cherished symbol. The parallels are actually pretty similar. We are all well aware of the sins that have been committed under both of these banners. They both have...

It seemed pointless to post a week 9 blog just 3 days after week 8.5, and I was too busy last weekend to post a week 10 (these things take quite a while to make), so I'm just going to call this one week 11. It's a couple of days early, but hey, that's close enough (and close enough is the widely accepted standard with horseshoes, hand grenades, and garden blogs, I believe).  It's been a...

Please go Here to Comment Jon Stewart Is Back to Weigh In By David Marchese For all the value Jon Stewart delivered as a political satirist and voice of reason during his 16-year-run as the host of ''The Daily Show,'' it's quite plausible to suggest that the political and media Bizarro World in which we live — where skepticism is the default, news is often indistinguishable from...

We have a problem. The problem being when the Supreme Court legislates from the bench via its rulings. The Constitution is quite clear on the division of powers within the government, and yet the SCOTUS continually overstep their authority through their rulings. I'm going to tackle one of the MOST hot topic buttons there is: Discrimination versus Freedom of Association The Constitution...

All I wanted to do was watch a ghost show (yes I know they aren't real - but sometimes have a few scares in them) to get a little chill when what pops up - DEMONS.  Why are these shows always talking about demons?  I do not find demons scary at all - maybe because I find it all so ridiculous.  OOOO something from hell is trying to possess this woman in East Bumfuck Iowa.  REALLY??????  If...
