    I love duck. All you have to do is score the skin and steam it. After that put it in a frying cast iron pan and cook it till its brown in the oven.

    rebellion against the salad.  dont want spinach salad for lunch

    it's hottt

    no wanna cook

    want pepperoni pizza + cold brewskie

    ...ugh 94° there today  Going to be getting some of that 90s stuff here in a couple days.

     

    cicadas a whole symphony concert

    ...here it was the yap dog barking incessantly. Definitely not a symphony.

    My sympathies.  Five yappy dogs live in the house next door to me (300 feet away) and I still hear the friggin' things. 

    In the other direction, when I walk to the postoffice, some sort of yappy dog starts yapping when I'm two houses away and continues until I'm two houses past.  Mostly through the window but sometimes it's on a leash and will come running at me.

    When I did housecalls for computer repair I'd encounter homes with resident yappy dogs.  The animated mops and nervous rats are the worst but I also came to dislike those pug nosed deformities that would come snorting and dribbling snot onto my pantleg and shoes.  Useless creatures.

    When I rode bicycle around neighborhoods in Florida there was a house that I had to pass every time and the damn yappy dog there ran free and would attack my ankles everytime I rode by until the day I finally connected with a swift kick and launched it back into the middle of it's yard.  No appologies to the owners of yappy dogs.  angry

     

    ...when I used to ride cross country in Wisconsin, I carried a dishwashing soap bottle filled with a 50/50 solution of water and ammonia.  Worked every time, even against big dogs.

    Complaint:  I terminated my DISH-TV contract to save the $100/month subscription fee.   All fine and good, and they even sent me a box to return my DVR device back to them.  When on the phone with them I asked if I had to return the antenna too but they said "no".  Well after nearly 10 days the return box finally arrived here. but now in the enclosed instructions I discover that what they didn't tell me on the phone is that unless I return the "LNB" (electronic gizmo at the focus of the dish shaped antenna and also the "switch" gizmo located somewhere in a weatherproof box on the outside of my house) I will be charged $150.  I'm nearly 70 years old and have trouble climbing stairs to go to bed.  When I originally signed up with them they were eager enough to send an installer person out to attach my antenna 20 feet up the side of my house but now that I'm leaving them they want me to climb a ladder that I don't have, and remove the LNB gizmo from the antenna and then find and remove the correct "switch" gizmo for my particular apartment (there are three weatherproof boxes out there and the wires disappear into the walls of the house. Oy!!!

    Sigh, I've got the DVR device packed and I can probably sweep the cobwebs off the equipment boxes and figure out which one is mine, but I guess I'll have to try to find somebody with a bloody long ladder and pay them to climb up and disassemble my antenna before the remaining 20 day return grace period expires.   

    ..ugh.  You should call and tell them to bring one of their techs out to do that and not bill you anything.

    OMG!  A dinosaur has nested by my porch!

    For several weeks the neighbor's chicken has been wandering loose around their yard and sometimes coming over into ours.  I tried shooing it back across the border but of course dinosaurs have little concept of property lines.  I'm always worried that when I back out of my parking space I'm going to run over it. 

    Yesterday I saw it clucking contentedly in the weeds next to my porch.  This morning when leaving for a doctor appointment I glanced in that direction to see if the chicken was down in the weeds.  No, it wasn't but in its place were about a half dozen large brown eggs!  This is what happens when you don't have a cat living around your house anymore. devil

    There is always the BBQ Contingecy Plan- Omega 56-B... Plus you get breakfast too... Besides, you'd only have to share it with a cat if you had one... If the cat left you any.  If the neighbor asks, you could say the chicken spontaneously combusted from the godawful heat and you had no choice but to eat it for fear of its delicious remains attracting wolves... Because then once the wolves come around you'd have get gorillas to drive them away and eventually get Komodo dragons to get rid of the gorillas... It starts out as a lost chicken and ends up a damned environmental disaster, so you were trying to be proactive and keep nature in harmony... Delicious harmony.

    I'm pondering whether to tell the neighbors to come pick up their chicken or start a new breakfast menu.  However, I'm not a farmer.  I know nothing about the safe human consumability of eggs that are not found in styrofoam containers with expiration dates stamped on the end.  And I'm a little bit apprehensive about finding meat, beaks, claws and feathers in my omlette.  So I guess I'll just do the right thing and tell the neighbor that his free ranging dinosaur has set up shop next to my porch and let him decide how to handle it.

    edited to add: a quick check of the area just now reveals an absent chicken but there are by best count 14 eggs!!!

    If there's a rooster in your neighborhood, let her hatch them. If not, they won't hatch anyway. So if you smell sulfur, empty the nest.
