I did use a bit of "colourful" language. I was a sailor..................................the flunkies have to deal with it. It is their job.

Mother, Mother Ocean
Mother, Mother Ocean, I've heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you, switch from sails to steam
In your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen
Most of 'em dream, most of 'em dream
In your belly you hold the treasures, few have ever seen
Most of 'em dream, most of 'em dream
Yes, I am a pirate, two hundred year's too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late

Wishing we were rockets bursting in the sky
Talking about redemption and leaving things behind
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs
To remind me of a time
These pictures and these photographs
Let me know I'm doin' fine
We used to be so happy once upon a time
Once upon a time
But the sun sank west of the Mendocino County Line
And the sun sank west of the Mendocino County Line

Nanci Griffith, Emmylou Harris, Iris DeMent : Are You Tired Of Me Darling
Nancy, Emmylou and Iris................yeah. It is good. Three sweet voices.
Tunes. Jho Nek Bhone. Canadian, Eh!
I used to listen to this on CKKQ 100.3 from Victoria BC. It was the best reception rock station on North Whidbey Island and the Naval Air Station therein.
They used to play a lot of Canadian Independent Music. It was where I first heard Bare Naked Ladies as well.
Please enjoy!

Beer Blogging for a Furlough Night
Got a couple of these at Cost Plus World Market in Visalia. We had to go over there this past Saturday. Seems the Missus left her wallet on the counter. They were really nice folks and let us know she had done so. Good folks there.
But this is pretty tasty, I must say. I can't do all that fancy descriptive stuff but suffice to say that I do like it!

Desert Thunderstorm from yesterday 20130723
Took this with the Droid. But made sure it got uploaded to the computer as Blogger for Droid keeps pics so very small.

Furlough
It Blows!
To all of the congress critters and the sand crawler in the white house who caused this....................go and blow it out your collective asses....................................................
Of special note are those two low life whores who pass themselves off as my senators.
Perhaps the executive and legislative branches should take a 20 percent pay cut, like I have had shoved down my throat. Just a suggestion.
Rant over.

The exercise machine
I have had this $100 Walmart special for a few years. Finally putting it to some use. 4&1/2 miles today.
My Doc says some form of regular exercise is in order. Low impact is preferred.

Sunday Beer Blogging
Got this stealth Coors brand at the Stater Brothers Market in Mojave yesterday. Did a soda pop run and a beer run. It is a small super market but the beer, wine and hard liquor selection is pretty good. The Albertson's in Tehachapi has a really good selection as well.
Pretty tasty, I must say.

Home in California
We got in on Wednesday Evening. Unloaded the next day which was Independence Day. Irony perhaps? No longer tied to the house in Wichita.
We filled a 10 by 10 storage unit in Wichita with furniture and boxes of stuff. I had a 6 by 12 U Haul trailer behind the Titan and it was full!
I got about 13 mpg overall on the return. I like my truck as it works and can pull about 9,200 pounds. But it can hurt at the pump.
We got everything into the garage and a storage unit we have here in Cal City. The trailer was returned on Friday AM with no issues at all. Done.
California is now home, for better or worse.
To all who sent the wishes and such, thanks from the bottom of my heart.

Done in Wichita
Got all the stuff we came after from the house. We filled a 10 by 10 storage space in Wichita. There is a 6 by 12 U haul behind the Titan. We will be heading west in a bit.
Going to be a long drive.
