Craig Crawford's Trail Mix

and it is a tiara, NOT a crown -- one of her handlers sternly corrected me about that

Ahh ..... The perks of punditry.

Every time you want to smoke, think of the 61 cent a pack tax that's coming on them.

Happy Valentine's Day!

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - It could cost as much as $825 million to clean up a river and a rural neighborhood after a massive spill of coal ash sludge from a Tennessee Valley Authority power plant, the utility's chief executive said Thursday.

Just put it on the tab.

" Last fall the TVA board approved a 20 percent electric rate increase, the largest in nearly two decades, though it has since dialed back that increase because of falling fuel prices. Another reduction announced Thursday, taking effect April 1, will bring the total hike to 5 percent for the year.

The average monthly bill for a typical residential customer in the TVA region that covers Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Kentucky, Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia is $96............. "

Happy Valentines Day everyone, Heres to moo!

Here's a Valentine to you all from Snowy Ohio. :)

Net ettiquette: label your links & youtubes.

Patsi -
Speaking of moving animal populations :

" "Adapted to cold alpine conditions, pikas are intolerant of high temperatures and can die from overheating when exposed to temperatures as low as 78 degrees Fahrenheit for just a few hours," the center said in a statement.

It added that pika populations have been moving uphill as temperatures warm.

"As temperatures rise, pika populations at lower elevations are being driven to extinction, pushing pikas further upslope until they have nowhere left to go," said Shaye Wolf, a biologist with the center.

More than a third of pika populations in Nevada and Oregon's Great Basin mountains have gone extinct in the past century, the center added, and the rest there are found an average of 900 feet farther upslope. "

Miss America is a paid spokesperson for "Zerosmoke" a psuedo-science "acu-puncture" scam, thus her "anti-smoking" platform. I visited Zerosmoke's webpage, and it was riddled with pop-ups and cookies; I had to restart my browser, and that happens very rarely with Firefox. A pox upon your house, Miss America!

No, it's not better. Why should I take the time to go to your crappy youtube if you won't take the time to label it? With the plethora of information available instantly these days, the ability to filter it quickly and decisively is important. No shit.

good sleuthing there, champ. but somebody has to pay for that Tiara

the "crappy" Zerosmoke's webpage, seems a lot worse then unlabeled, You Tube links, after all you can read the song title in the tab before it totally loads.

oh well....not really of any consequence...going to sort clothes for the AM VETs......

Craig, To maintain my reputation for knowing totally useless trivia, there are two major differences between a tiara and a crown. :-)

1. A tiara is only worn by women while a crown may be worn by either gender

2. A crown is a full circle and is decorated all the way around while a tiara may be a partial or whole circle but is only decorated in the front.

(Hint: not necessary) I'm listening to a netcast about it right now.

Thank you for labeling your youtubes, Gordo. Quickly and decisively filtered.

Champ,

We have been playing songs for each other around here for years. Did you just notice that they usually aren't labeled and that the song can be a commentary so labeling it up front could spoil the remark?

Jack, I tend to check the links by those I know to be our music afficianados because there is often something new to hear. The rest, some yes, some no depending on mood.

You're not "spoiling" anything by labeling your links, you're saving bandwidth. The so-called "commentary" is lost to anyone who doesn't click on the link. Poor form.

"More than a third of pika populations in Nevada and Oregon's Great Basin mountains have gone extinct "

Amazing that these animals have been here for centuries and we're killing them off....

No problem. Champ. You are the one who objects and no one is forcing you to click. Everyone else manages just fine.

Rationalize your narcissism any way you like, and here I thought you were a stickler for propriety. I get the last word.

New news:
--------------
Fifth State Representative has joined our legal action as a plaintiff

"... Dr. Mike Ritze, Oklahoma state representative ... will be joining as an additional plaintiff, my upcoming legal action to unseal Obama's vital records and check if he is eligible/legitimate for presidency.

American citizens are entitled to know if a person occupying the White House is there legitimately."

Let's get that bastard selling wine, and cashing royalty checks.

I met people my whole life, who cashed royalty checks. For all kind of reasons. They come in every 90 days. I was at the Salida Post Office one morning, when $7,000 dollars just came in the mail. It's nothing like oil money though. I never got me that royalty check, and I tried hard every now and then.

ah Jamie, one of the best reports yet from our Research and Development Division.. the whole story on the difference between and tiara and crown. luv it.

The best royalty checks come from words. Imagine , every 90 days a check comes just because people buy your words.

Ah -

That one zoomed right over my head.
