In the 60's on holidays, Dad would dial 0 to get operator. Request a person to person call from Boston to Britain where we came from giving them the phone number. Sometime later, the phone would ring, and that was our chance to make the call to grandparents. We 3 kids got about 30 seconds each.

No Dem leg will pass the house majority leaders gate. Performative bills make for warm fuzzies and appeal to the illiteratti by are really a waste of time. Our hopes are that the mid terms are held, and we retake the House at a minimum.

I got very lucky after a super stupid event and ended up on 6th floor San Rafael upper class man dorm at UCSB, aka the Science and Tech floor. Reagan era. This was a topic discussed often. My hopes was that I was born old enough to miss the grand entry.

So just to be fair, folks who die whilst on SS at the hands of others who simply hide the body still get the SS. My god, this must be 10's of them annually!

Yes, both require killing flock, sanitizing the CAFO, and replacing birds, but broilers have only a 7 weeks to harvest new birds. Layers have 2 plus times as long just to start laying at a just getting going rate. This is compounded by layer farms on avg are larger in size.

I woke up heart pounding. Dream, got to make a flight, but we 'have' to take a walk across a long bridge first. Progressively narrower, missing guard rails, then the crawl through dirt filled tunnel? This is where I awoke.

Broilers live for 7 weeks before slaughter. Egg layers need 16 to 24 weeks to start and lay an egg every 24 to 48 hours for 2 to 3 years. Lots of eggs once they get going and the reverse when flocks die.

Yes and no, sadly the ambulatory bit is the no, while the empathetic, intelligent, sane part has long been gone. Possibly never existing

Once when Grandad still drove, he and Grandma came to pick me up at Exeter and took me to their home in Barnstaple with a car like this. Miss them both.

I was given a Raleigh 3 speed which took me all over the Berkeley CA hill trails. My brother had one of those bikes.

I counted them when I brought them in. Recipe called to make 6-7 dozen. I had 6 dozen and one.
Tomorrow, I will be making British Bangers. I had to source the fat from salt pork which I have been soaking in baths of water to pull the salt out.
