bigsmile hi


The swans from the north are here already, so we know that we are in for a hard winter this year. The swans do not usually get here until November/early December.

I hope that you are all able to keep warm during the coming months and keep safe. Please check on local elderly people during this time. Thank you.

Hey Skip! The Canada Geese are early risers! At the lake behind my former abode, they would form up around 3am and with much fanfare head south. I would guess that lake is a regular stop on their migration route. cool coffee

Kent E. Olssonkentsopera Thursday, October 28, 2010 5:35:48 PM

... and the local golf course greens, is for a regular crap on their migration route. I just love the sight of cigar ash looking geese turds in the morning, on the putting surfaces - the golfers "Apocalypse Now" -
Fore! You little Bas'turds! yikes

Skip EnnisSkip247 Thursday, October 28, 2010 6:04:28 PM

I guess that if geese played golf they would not shit on the greens. rolleyes lol

Hello Tyler. It is good to hear from you again. What 's the news? bigsmile

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Friday, November 12, 2010 5:14:51 PM

Did they remember you on "Rememberance Day"? We call it "Veterans Day" over here. My VietNam hat got me a free meal yesterday. cool coffee

Skip EnnisSkip247 Friday, November 12, 2010 5:19:20 PM

Well done and deserved. I could not go out yesterday and so I had my own Rememberance at home. We will not and can not ever forget our brothers in arms.

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Saturday, November 13, 2010 5:32:46 PM

Over the last two nights I have watched the entire HBO series about WWII in the Pacific. I cried several times... cool

FIFINELEB Saturday, November 13, 2010 6:13:53 PM

HBO? smile

Skip EnnisSkip247 Saturday, November 13, 2010 6:33:31 PM

I saw that one some time ago. The losses were hideous.

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Sunday, November 14, 2010 8:29:24 PM

Yes... HBO. I watched it "On Demand". I don't know if I will ever do that again. It was hard to watch. coffee

FIFINELEB Sunday, November 14, 2010 9:43:17 PM

I simply did not understand the term "HBO" ,Cap. It is not a popular series in my country or I don't remember. What is it? smile

Kent E. Olssonkentsopera Monday, November 15, 2010 5:20:05 PM

Hi Jean,

HBO means Home Box Office and is an American, Cable Network. Another is
A & E named Arts & Entertainment, and are similar to Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, National Geographic and the like. HBO has a variety of features, including: topical documentaries, programmed series like "The Sopranos" a mafia crime series situated in the USA's state of New Jersey.
Hope all the warriors are doing well and in good health and happy!
knight

FIFINELEB Monday, November 15, 2010 6:40:28 PM

Thanks for the information,Kent . I am not connected with the cable . I have got two satellite dishes and an antenna for the local TV channels. I know about Discovery channel and Canal+ of course.
All the warriors are getting very well preparing themselves for the winter. There are some floods in Belgium due to too much rain in a short period of time. Three deads already. Have a nice week,Kent. smile

Kent E. Olssonkentsopera Tuesday, November 16, 2010 6:55:34 PM

I used to have canal+ digital, and now have Viasat and these services will show some features from HBO or A & E or any others aforementioned - usually at the end of a feature one can see their logos, HBO letters in the screens middle, with a lot of snow like interference surrounding "HBO" is their particular one.

Yes, Winter is here already in Norway, a little snow compressed to ice and then snow on top again - nice and dangerous. This happened at +2 C, and now it's -5 C daytime and -9 C nightly.

Sorry to see Belgium so flooded and regretfully people dying as a result. You do the same Jean, stay Healthy, Happy and Safe from harm.

happy

FIFINELEB Tuesday, November 16, 2010 8:54:29 PM

Thanks,Kent. Be careful when driving. Time to sit by the fire side and drink warm drinks. Have a happy week,my friend. smile

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Thursday, November 18, 2010 12:47:51 AM

Dang! Kent explained it all much better than I could. Stay warm you all and watch out for "black" ice. coffee

FIFINELEB Thursday, November 18, 2010 8:24:33 AM

Yeah,Cap. It's devil's spit on the roads. smile

Skip EnnisSkip247 Thursday, November 18, 2010 1:58:06 PM

We said earlier that it was going to be a very hard Winter this year. So we have to keep warm and adapt to travel less. I feel warm with such friendships as your good selves. bigsmile penguin

FIFINELEB Thursday, November 18, 2010 4:05:47 PM

One century ago our grandparents didn't leave their village. They went once in a lifetime to the cinema and remembered the only film they saw, a couple of times to the nearby situated town to do some business,they had only bicycles and they were nonetheless happy. They lived a simple life far from ads and envy. smile
BTW: brought my fig trees to a shelter because of the frost.

Skip EnnisSkip247 Thursday, November 18, 2010 4:27:28 PM

Ah! That is the life for me. yes

Like your fig trees, I have brought myself indoors because of the frost. lol

FIFINELEB Thursday, November 18, 2010 5:27:58 PM

I do not like too much change either. What is our modern society charging at? Not at quiet and simple happiness in any case. The right time to do cuttings from fig trees,my friend. A cutting in a small pot and it certainly will grow in the early spring. one year after you can eat your first fresh fig from your own fig tree. Not interested,Skip? smile

Skip EnnisSkip247 Thursday, November 18, 2010 5:58:41 PM

I will try growing whatever the conditions here allow. I will try a fig tree next year. Thank you. bigsmile

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Thursday, November 18, 2010 7:08:42 PM

How about some "figgy pudding" then? Had an adventure with the plumbing in my kitchen. Would you believe that I lost a sponge down the drain? The "garbage disposal" ate the sponge and then plugged up the drain pipe! I had to call for help in the end. Dang it.... coffee

I would like to do some cutting under the fig leaves, on those Advertising Agency employees in charge of recording at higher volume during their commercials and destroying my quiet with their inane, nonsensical, crap. lol

FIFINELEB Thursday, November 18, 2010 8:57:01 PM

It is meant to attract you attention,Kent since you're dreaming of adventures the whole day I suppose. Haha. I wish you a good night without any noise. smile

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Friday, November 19, 2010 6:59:06 PM

I am now enjoying not going all over the place. It still seems a little odd to live in a house with no wheels on it. coffee

FIFINELEB Friday, November 19, 2010 7:37:09 PM

I understand that,Cap. You want to be on the move all the time,don't you? Your lawn mower has got four wheels and two gears you know? Not the same as a big truck of course but less dangerous. And what a look when the lawn is mown. Have a nice weekend. smile

Kent E. Olssonkentsopera Friday, November 19, 2010 9:25:19 PM

lol coffee

FIFINELEB Friday, November 19, 2010 9:47:42 PM

Hi Kent! Happy to see you. When it is ads-time I switch off the sound too. They are getting on my nerves with their exaggerations. smile

Skip EnnisSkip247 Saturday, November 20, 2010 11:42:34 AM

I am sorry I was not here yesterday, to join in the banter, but my ISP was down all day. cry

FIFINELEB Saturday, November 20, 2010 12:54:33 PM

It happens to me too. It is hard to stand. smile

Skip EnnisSkip247 Saturday, November 20, 2010 1:49:39 PM

The only thing that I missed were my friends.

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Monday, November 22, 2010 7:06:42 PM

Right now I am locked out of my "message center". What the hell is Opera doing? confused coffee

Skip EnnisSkip247 Monday, November 22, 2010 7:12:29 PM

All o.k. here, so the problem must be 'local'. pirate

Tyler Parke YoungCaptivevet Monday, November 22, 2010 7:16:40 PM

Well let me see if I can get it to work now..... coffee
