I am still bewildered by the effort involved in this project, and how little 2 bags of rye grass seed covers. I headed back to ACE to get two more bags of rye grass and some generic seed grass to get that lawn kicking. The straw was itchy to put down, but it will keep the dogs from dragging in all that dew covered fresh dirt in like they did this morning.
My arms hurt.

Found this pic over on reddit and the title
Does this girl Ever close her mouth?
I know it is not nice to make fun of people, but it made me giggle a bunch.
Before:
I know it looks kinda like grass in that pic, but very little of it is. By the fence it was some sort of clover and up by me was tons of sunflowers that had been trimmed down weekly. The only good grass is the little blotches by the garage. Three areas I needed to till. The main lawn in the pic, a kennel next to the garage which we are going to plant a garden, and an area in the alley where Theresa wants to put fruit bushes and lilacs.
The tiller was decent and Jeff at Ace told me it would wear me out. Oh man I had no clue. First the thing did not have grips and it was so powerful that you had to lean back and basically pull it really hard to keep it from running away from you. I made it maybe 15 feet till I said no way. Went to the truck and grabbed a ratcheting tie down strap and made a loop for my butt. I reserved it for 3 hours but needed 4. It really wore me out after the first hour but I kept going.
This year, to honor Playboy’s 55th anniversary, Holly Madison is heading up a search for a very special playmate and thinks it might be YOU! We at Playboy invite you to post a video response to this video showing us why you should be the 55th anniversary playmate (no nudity allowed).
Dude check it out. Me Make Food
First off thanks so much for all the votes in the poll. I know it took me a bit to get it going. Not sure how much will make it over to this site, but will link to major posts for sure. Still not too happy with the theme and think it is gonna change, but I loved the imput.
There are a bunch of good local food blogs and if you are even slightly interested register up to post crap over at Me Make Food and contribute. I still have the “I like pictures” thang going on, so if you have even one pic it would help. But not too worried.
SILVERTON, Ore. — Management for a popular Silverton restaurant announced Thursday that young children would no longer be allowed into the establishment.
The manager at the Red Thai restaurant on Oak Street said children younger than 6 aren’t welcome in the eatery.
The Red Thai manager, Craig Gereau, said children disrupt people who are trying to enjoy a quiet dinner.
He said most of his customers like the new rule, but he’s had to turn some people away.
“We’ve had to turn a few young parents away. They’re a little bit appalled, a little bit annoyed, but we have to do what we have to do. We can’t stay in business to please everybody,” Gereau said.
Gereau said he’s not discriminating against anyone, he just wants to run a restaurant that caters to adults, and there are plenty of family restaurants in Silverton for children.
Target teams up with Newsweek and Terracycle to create reusable totes out of fused target plastic bags! Finally - a recycled reusable bag that looks like the bags it came from and is replacing! And that’s not all… the Newsweek aspect is fascinating as well - you rip off the cover of the latest “green” issue, and are taught how to tape up the cover into a prepaid envelope that you can put Target plastic bags in, and mail them in for a coupon to get one of the Terracycle $6 ReTotes for free in a Target Store.
When it comes to target bags I get all gushy. They simply rule.
Theresa has gotten some canvas bags for our grocery shopping, but I so want one of these.
From Adam White:
For almost a decade now, I have been planning with John Pound ( artist over 400 of the approximately 700 ‘original series’ GARBAGE PAIL KIDS®. Including the iconic Adam Bomb, and the entire first 2 series ) to create a Garbage Pail Kid style parody card for me and my clothing label Craze One, and as I type this, it’s almost finished!
I am printing a full color vinyl sticker, complete with the die-cut peel out center. First printing is a limited run, each one individually hand numbered. I think everyone who grew up with the Garbage Pail Kids, and hold fond memories of the cards, like I have, would get a kick out this.
If you are interested, or just want to see more details, including the final artwork unveiling, check out: www.crazeone.com
They will only be $4 each, which includes shipping within the U.S
STICKER DETAILS:
” 2.5″ x 3.5″
” 2 sided
” Full Color screenprinted vinyl front
” 110 lb. one color printed backing
” DIE-CUT Peel out center
” U.V. overcoated
” Weatherproof
FRONT ART: John Pound painted over 400 of the
approximately 700 ‘original series’ GARBAGE PAIL KIDS®.
Including the iconic Adam Bomb, and the entire first 2 series.
His work includes endless trading cards, comic books,
magazines, even toys and skateboards.
BACK ART: Adam White, when not at his job as a stunt double
for Paul Reubens back in ‘84, he made time to draw. Dreaming
of a day when his sketches, then, often made with a Lite Brite”
would be worn by everyone he knew. Early designs were
personal one-offs made with puffy paint, High Lighters, and on
those special occasions, glitter. Sporting these down at the
roller rink he soon found his art spoke for itself. A nostril injury
ended his stunt career, but Adam continues to design.
THANKS! See you in the garbage!
We got ours Friday. $800 to the home equity loan and the rest to pay off Theresa’s bed. Not as exciting as an ipod touch. This site has posts of what people have done with theirs.
A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed.
