Are Californians Just Plain Stupid?
scroll down and mute the music before
you press play on the video
Could they have honestly forgotten Jerry Browns past? They voted down prop 19 , (legalization of marijuana) yet they voted "Moonbeam" back into office.
Heaven help us!

It's a Small Small World
I think it was November Doris put out a CT call and the team got sizabley larger... While engaging in the usual meet and great, I discovered one of the new gals Anne
had recently moved to Northern California... so I inquired a bit more... seems Anne lives about two miles from me... and it didn't stop there! After a couple of lengthy emails we discovered we both grew up in Napa! WOW!
Well one thing led to another and Anne had mentioned she wanted to learn how to "blend" photos, so I offered to meet her at a nearby Starbucks and teach her. That was Friday, we had a lot of fun! We spent about 4 hours there.. I could have stayed all day, but that's beside the point! LOL Anne was a fabulous student and took right to the technique I showed her! I had pulled up a couple pictures and a paper for Anne to work with and her final product was so good it inspired me to go home and do some "blending" I started with a new kit from Doris and an old picture of Anna Nicole Smith I had kicking around and came up with this:
I kind of like it just like that, but I figured I should show more of Doris' beautiful kit... so I pulled out this wonderful groupie from the kit.. it made the layout so, so easy, Doris had pretty much done all the work! LOL I dropped in a couple more pictures of Anna Nicole and just like magic...

re: Anna Nicole.... I was never a big fan, but I certainly appreciated where she had been and what she had done.. and the deaths of both Anna and her son were terribly tragic... I was deeply affected when I heard the news...another fighter gone...

Trick or Treat
just thought I'd share one of my favorite recipies with you:
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and bling-worms sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good
William Shakespeare - Macbeth: IV.i 10-19; 35-38
and if that doen't do anything for you here's a bit of fun from webshots
to see more fun photos ------>Halloween

A Ghoulish Answer
While poking around in the online version of the Napa Register I found the following :
Like Stratton, Danielle Dulle of 2192 Penny Lane knows that her neighbors can’t wait to see the yield of her decorating labors. “Last year, we were out of town and the neighbors were disappointed because we didn’t to it. ... When we do it, they always come up and say ‘thank you’ and that makes it worth it,” she said.
Dulle, who has celebrated Halloween vigorously for 15 years, said her yard currently features ghosts, spider webs, crosses, skeleton bodies, skulls, black lights and more. “We left it up to the kids this year to decorate and they did a pretty good job,” she said. "
Don't ask me how I could have missed it for 15 years...LOL I have to drive right by it to get to my moms.. Penny Lane is a dead end street (no pun intended) Oh, and the Register had this wonderful interactive map... with the whopping 8, yes EIGHT, count them, spooky houses in town.... http://www.napavalleyregister.com/maps/halloween/ you see the Dulle's little skull and crossbones int he lower right!

Fun, Interesting or Just Plain Stupid?
Do you like to be in the know on all the bizzar happenings in our society? If so you should read this blog..... News of The Wierd Daily... Breaking News Culled for Your Eyebrow-lifting, Sanity-gauging Pleasure by America's Weird-News Anchorman, Chuck Shepherd
Here's a sample of todays post
Civilization in Decline
One place we might be headed, the Safety Police say, is standard equipment in cars (the technology is done) to remind you, when you park, to take your urchin (in the back seat) with you [Ed.: and, let’s see, what else from the News of the Weird’s archive, oh, yes, standard equipment to detect whether there’s a pedestrian that you’ve hit, embedded in your windshield] . . . . .
Can you see me rolling my eyes? Oh yes!

A few days of fun and love!
You may or may not have noticed I changed my music.... but I did! just a few selections to get us in the MOOD for love... and here's a little fun to go with it.. what does your candy heart say? mine says:
| Your Candy Heart Says "First Kiss" |
 You're a true romantic who brings an innocent hope to each new relationship. You see the good in every person you date, and you relish each step of falling in love. Your ideal Valentine's Day date: a romantic dinner your sweetie cooks for you Your flirting style: friendly and sweet What turns you off: cynics who don't believe in romance Why you're hot: you always keep the romance alive |
