Trashy People

I can think of no better description of too many of those that attended the White House correspondent dinner. How they can look in the mirror, think they're relevant, or deserve respect, is beyond me. Trashy and repulsive.

Secede?

Some in California want to secede. While they might think that's a good idea, in reality, it's dumbassery lifted to a level beyond comprehension. I won't go into the details, but someone with the tiniest ability to think logically will know the foolishness of the idea.

Simple Things

I was cooking some bacon. When I turned it the first time, I noticed one slice seemed a little thick. Lo and behold, it was two slices, so I separated the two, and now have another slice of bacon for breakfast. That's a good thing. It makes the morning even better.

I'll Miss Him

The neighbor's beagles escaped today. They came to the house and killed my small Sebright Bantam rooster. He, like most roosters, protected the chickens, which led to his demise. He probably attacked the enemy, paid the price for his efforts, and the hens were spared.

I'll miss his early morning crowing, and his effort to stay close, while I was outside.

Spring Visitors

The other day, while sitting on the porch, I caught a glimpse of a bird I've never seen at my house. I quietly sat, waited and it returned, with more of the same.

It was an indigo bunting. They  usually pass through this part of the country, but can stay, since this is the southern edge of their summer range. I hope they do.

The photo is from the Audubon site, and taken by Rob Curtis. It's a good photo, and shows how brilliant the blue can be. With the birds feeding with cardinals, and woodpeckers, the color contrasts are amazing.
