Don't forget to bag some non-perishable foods in a bag at your mailbox. The U.S.P.S. is collecting for their food drive for the local food banks. I think it's a worthwhile cause and participate every year.

These are the new dodge dart chassis.The shipper told me they are sitting out there because they are basically scrap.
Apparently the casting mix produced small bubbles in the metal,and at least 70% of these are unfit for production.
The new dart has all the bells and whistles,but they are pretty ugly.

I saw the Lil' Giant infomercial this morning while channel surfing.
Years ago that ladder was being made in Provo (I think) . Hubby was working in Provo and had the guy get him one.
You would think that we are the only people in the radius of 50 miles who have a ladder. It's heavy, but it's soooooo
versatile!!!
They say the new one is lighter........we have the old one.

I have a friend from H.S. (class of '65) who is joining the Peace Corp. at age 66 !!
It's something she has wanted to do since H.S., but life got in the way.
She has been assigned to Moldava. I told her to become familiar with the gypsy culture and pack plenty of garlic. I was reading about the Carpathian Mountains....always mentioned in Dracula movies.
She is in the process of selling everything or giving it away. She sent me 2 cd's.....one of Lesley Gore and one of Rosemary Clooney.......I will put them in my car with my Bobby Darin cd.
She will be gone in June to learn the language..

God save the Queen!
Thank's more for noticing ,and thanks for the support pickup.

Congratulations to Trace for the win on Celebrity Apprentice !! My pick was Penn Jillette.......it was a very close contest and lots of $$$ was won for charity.
Trace was playing for the Red Cross and Penn was playing for a local Vegas charity called Opportunity Village.
It's nice that Penn was able to bring National attention to a local charity. Opportunity Village trains mentally challenged adults to do jobs and be productive. It should go national.......some rich people need to run with it.
Both guys were great competitors.
