    By the way, I'm told by Coyote that early Spiderman comics explained that his webs are biodegradable - they disappear after a couple of hours. You know, that's just one more thing in my head that I don't need there......
    True enough, my final home is still out there, but this is most certainly my home range and I love it. I love every rock I fall off and tree I trip over. Even when I am close to dying from exhaustion, a beautiful sunset doesn't lose it's power to refresh and inspire me and that, in itself, is enough to save me sometimes.

    Well just great. Now all the bad guys know all they have to do is wait a couple of hours, the webs will disappear and they won't be tied up any more. Way to go.

    Yeah, that's always been the problem with the news services.

    Have you ever wondered if Spider-Man scares Rick?

    I respect Spider Man. I'm scared spitless of Chuck Norris.

    Oh...I'm constantly googling something. It's a heck of a thing...to always wonder about something and be able to jump onto google and find out.

    You tube too. A guy, while vacuuming swimming pool, had always filled his line with the water hose. Made him nervous to see me just push the line into the water a certain way. Was worried about air getting into the pump. I explained how it's like when you stick your straw down into your drink. Just plain physics. Still didn't like it. So I had to do you tube search and show him how the professionals either do it my way or by holding the line up to the outlet jets. Very few stick their water hose in it. Poof, done.

    You probably don't want to mess with "Cobman". I think he lives in that hole in the outhouse.

    What's the fascination for scary movies. People don't understand that people can actually be that are scary and, by that by the time the cops respond you're toast.

    To expand a bit...."All WE have to do is.......Means me as well.....Unless I say it... then it means "You"

    There is Wife English and Husband English. You had better understand both. If you don't the only thing you'll need to know is Lonesome Guy English.

    Nowadays everyone you Google something they learn as much about you as you do what you're googling. I use duckduckgo these days.

    I like duck duck go with Adblock on the smart phone keeps the volume of data down.


    On a different note If someone was using a wood stove to keep warm in a cabin - and a water boiler was added to the stove top with the right safety equipment why could it not make 125 volt generator/ with regulator go? the excess heated water would be dumped into a floor radiator system then returned. I have never seen one...
