A bee in the bonnet!

This past week, the Aggie Photog took pictures of Bluebonnets at their most gorgeous. A bee, appropriately, was in the bonnet doing what bees do best. Spreading "it" around. Hopefully today will find a photo of this important transaction added to the blog. (as soon as Robert sizes it for me)


I watched LIFE on the Discovery Channel the other night. This particular episode was Fish. It featured a Japanese Mud Skipper which did incredible things to keep his brood alive. Yes, "his" brood. It was a male fish, an air-breathing little dude which walks on land with little flipper-feet. Go see.

National Health Care

My cell phone is in the 4th dimension. Sometime yesterday it took a hike. I took a hike also and took it with me, returned home and later on looked for it, it was gone. 

Last night the House of Representatives (?) passed a bill of national health care. Please tell me it was a bad dream, no? It was real? Do you realize that the health care system in this country (USA) is now run by the congress and the president, both with approval ratings below 50%. Congress is way below, Obama is not far behind. A group that is recognized to be incompetent wrote the bill. OMG. Who is this world actually thought this bill would reduce the deficit? My son said that the word "deficit" is spelled O B A M A.. .

Medicare will be cut and trimmed to the point no doctor will want elderly patients. Forget-a-bout it. 
Doctors will have to await some cockamamie schedule of treatment handled by our esteemed congress.Two misguided reps from Texas voted for it according to the count on the net. Lloyd Doggett and Gene Green. Did the bill contain an out for the members of Congress? I don't know, am looking, but wouldn't be surprised. What a good for nothing group!

Photos, brilliant photos

I have access to some of the most incredible photos ever. Snow, trees, mountains, and buildings in a state of collapse. I will attempt to post one, though my computer has its own ideas, sometimes it "just says no!" The buildings in particular are my personal favs. Also cars, trucks and signs.
