The neighbor and I have decided to stare at his broken fence for awhile tomorrow; fixing it might happen, but a good staring is a sure thing.

I was walking up to an old farmhouse and heard what I thought were peacocks. Turns out it was an old lady yelling "help, help, help". I walked in the house and she was laying on the floor; don't know how long she had been laying there. She was out of breath from yelling, but I got out of her that I needed to call some people. I asked where her phone was and she said she didn't have one. I told her to stay put and I would go out to the package car to use mine. As I was calling 911, I flagged down her neighbor down the road and told him what was going on. We went back inside and I cleared it with him that it was ok for me to leave.
I was glad to get out of there- the smell was pretty bad and there must have been a thousand gnats flying around----inside the house.
In the 4 years I've had this route, I've only been to this house once before; never inside.

It did feel good to be in the right place at the right time. I know who is responsible for that, but Mr FedEx doesn't want me to talk about Him.

"He" likes to be talked about and "He" likes to be listened too.
No,
I am not talking about MrFedEx.
You were at the right place, at the right time, and you did the right thing.
Thank You for caring and listening to your surroundings.

You cannot demand respect anymore than you can demand a paycheck. It has to be earned. And for the treatment, well nobody has figured that out. But I'll ask God again tonight why life isn't fair.
I wish it was that simple. I had an issue here where I felt I was treated unfairly. I complained as one should do when they feel so. Those who have watched me post over the years you know a point I always come back to is that you demand respect and you demand fair treatment. The response has been to cut all my privledges and then to ban me for a week. No private messages, everything I do here is heavily censored. Under those conditions my posts may show up hours after I actually make them. Under those rules its impossible for me to participate here. I make a post and the conversation if heated sometimes has moved on to the next page before my response is approved and shows up. I wont post under those rules. This is not work nor school where some subjective person gets to decide whether my contribution to this site should be allowed. Its a message board with opinionated posters. thanks to those who have supported me over the years. Over9 that send him a private message response was a classic. I laughed my ass off at that one. Hubrat I love the duck pictures you are awesome. AJ as always I have so much respect for your zest, vigor and sense of humor in the face of some pretty daunting challenges. Regards - the punished one.....:)

Age quod agis
All the long, lazy mornings
In pastures of green
The sun on your withers
The wind in your mane
Could never prepare you
For what lies ahead

Neighbor brought over a freshly bagged wild turkey last night. I grilled it up. Breast was pretty good and dark meat was horrible. I'll stick with the store bought version.
