Does everybody have a choice of whether on go to the dark side, or the bright side?
I wondered who in their right mind would go into the dark side.
Wouldn't they be bumping into to things all over the place there?
I mean, how much fun could that be?

See now, thats what I don't get...with exception of his shiny black plastic exoskeleton looking outfit, nothing about him was dark. Besides, Darth used the force.

He's an old man now!!

A Surety Bond is required. I called:

Southwest Surety & Insurance (702) 360-6662.

They charge:
- $50 for a $10,000 bond that covers 4 years.
- $70 for Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance that covers 4 years.
They will mail us the forms that we'll send back to them. They'll send us back the bonds.
We take the bonds, along with our Notary Public application to the County Clerks office.

Clark County Recorder; (702) 455-4336; 500 S Grand Central Pkwy, Las Vegas, NV

They wll swear us in.
We then mail all documents, plus $35 to: 

Secretary State Dean Heller; 101 North Carson St #3; Carson City, NV 89701

We should be notaries in a week or so!!!
The next thing to do will be to form a Limited Liability Corporation (LLC)

We will be renting for $950 month-to-month with a $400 security deposit.
The tenants sign an agreement before the end of the month to rent the condo.
Before the 1st
The tenant fills out a Rental Application and gives us a $200 check.
That check will either apply to the first months rent, or be forfeited if the tenants changes his mind.
On the 1st
- We do a walk-thru, write everything down thats wrong. They sign it.
   We don't have to fix anything. This will protect all parties.
  Any damage not mentioned on the walk-thru comes out of security deposit when the contract terminates.
- We collect $1,300 ($900 for the first months rent + $400 for the security deposit).
- We surrender the keys.
By the 5th
- You call Nevada Power and have them turn off service on the 5th or sooner if the tenants agree.
By the 15th
- You call your insurance, and tell them you need landlords insurance (?)
- You arrange to have the association, water, garbage, sewage, insurance and tax bills come to this address.
- I help set up autopay for all the bills
- I transfer the shared bills from this house (electric, water, gas,  garbage, sewage, insurance, telephone, internet, cable) to autopay from the joint account.
- We will match each others deposits of ($500 a month) into the joint account. I like to pay these kinds of things in bulk, so, I'll probably be popping in $6,000 per year.
In the event that they don't pay us $900 by the 5th of each month:
- On the 6th, we send them a 5 Day Pay or Quit notice to pay $900 with a $90 penalty by the 10th.
- If they don't pay us $990 by the 10th 
   __ We file the Five Day Notice to Pay o Quit,
   __ Certificate of Mailing
   __ Affidavit of Complaint of Summary Eviction
   __ Order for Summery Eviction and
   __ Instructions o the Constable with the Justice Court on 200 S Third Street.
   The clerk will give the Judge the documents, where he will sign an Order for Summay Eviction.
   He gives that to a Constable. The Constable will remove the tenants within 24 hours.
- At this point, they either pay us all money owed, or a constible seals the property on the 15th.
- We have the right to sell any of their possessions to satisfy their debt.
The Joint Account
- The joint account (not considering maintenance, income taxes, non rental periods) should grow at least $6,000 a year.
This will be our nest egg.
- All money in the account will be jointly owned, and should yeild approximately 2% interest a year.
- Should we decide to withdraw money for personal use, it will be subtracted from our 50% contributions.
- If it grows to a substantial amount of money, we can easily invest the excess in mutual funds, stocks or bonds online.

I really didn't expect that. Sonny's friends, Rich Minsner (the landscaper), Robert, and several other people said $950 would be too much. Even two property management companies said that. SOOOOoooooo...
Anyway, I hope it rents. The couple seems nice, and I'll be more than willing to work with anyone that moves in.

Ever notice how simular insects and people are? They have all our organs and more!
Sometime nature pops out a leg where an antenna is supposed to be on an insects head!

I was reading Stephen Hawkings.
I've always thought that not being able to go faster than the speed of light was a bunch of huey.
It isn't. A simple explaination can be said in a question.
If light is the fastest thing known to man, what could you use to power something faster than light?
Imaging the current in a river is the fastest thing known to man.
If you were floating down that river, you could use a paddle to make your boat flow faster than the river.
If you did that, then your paddle would need to go faster than the river and it would be the fastest thing known to man.
Here's my question:
If light is the fastest thing known to man, and its photons are found to spin like all other particles
and they can spin in the direction of their travel, wouldn't one side of the photon be going faster than the speed of light?
Something that makes up the photon must be going faster than the speed of light, right?
Hawkings said some things that just sounded like common sense to me.
You don't need a lab to figure this stuff out, just a brain.
1-Time Travel is probably not possible because...
If it were, we'd have seen time travellers, right?
If time travel were possible, you could go back and kill your parents before you were born. That doesn't make sense.
Maybe there's a Time Cop Agency or some other reason that hasn't been discovered in our future yet.
If it were just you travelling back in time, you'd be taking matter from the current universe and adding it to the past universe...and the past universe would be more than its whole. That doesn't sound likely.
Everything I've seen in this universe seems to be reasonable.
2-It may be possible to send signals back in time.
We may not have the equipment to pick up those signals yet. This I might believe.
3-No one has seen UFOs from another planet because...
If they existed, why would they hide? Why would they live in an RV-sized saucer? Why would they conspire with our government? Why would WE be a threat at all? If they could zap across the universe using technology we only write about in science fiction, why would they hover over farm houses? Lastly, why hasn't anyone taken a decent photo of a UFO?
If UFOs do exist, they would most likely be an unmanned probe.
#1 We've sent probes out.
#2 Our probes rove around, observing other planets. Thats what we've designed them to do. 
#3 Ours probles collect information, then send it back to us.
Our Surveyor was sent to Mars. It is roving around exploring the planet.
If it had an auto-mission that it carried on without Earth's delayed instructions,
it would be roving around seemingly without purpose. It wasn't design to give information, just collect it.
If the surveyor were built well, it could out-live our civilization.
If it were smart enough, it would be programmed to escape being trapped.
If UFOs do exist, then they were probably sent out millions of years ago by civilizations that may or may not exist.
Now that, I can believe.
Euclidean Geometry cannot describe the universe accurately.
#1 It uses points that doen't exist in a moving universe. They would exist if you could freeze time, but you can't.
#2 It uses straight lines, based on those points.
#3 If points and straight lines don't exist, then the x,y,z dimensions are wrong too.
#4 It doesn't include time in its x,y,z math.
It was at one time, an excellent way to describe the universe.
What we're seeing now is that is was just that, an excellent beginning.
Time is just as unchangable in the future as it is in the past.
You don't read this very often. It makes people upset. The argument here is, that theory would negate free will. 
In a sense, this article I'm writting right now, had to be written and you had to read it.
Everything that is happening, has already happened 100 year from now.
I've read a bunch of really silly theories about time.
One was, you can't change your past, however, you can go into the future, then come back to your time and can change the future you visited...now aint that just weak!
That just wreaks of 'stupid', but....a PHD wrote it. I'd be embarrased if I wrote that.
Keep in mind, that PHDs don't have to be smart, they just have to be able to afford that title. Most of us aren't in that club.
I've been reading materials written by PHDs
They all seem to have a pattern. They talk normally until they get into a complicated thought, then they resort to long words and formulas. It takes months to decode these words and formulas and figure out they make no sense.
In other words, professors seem put an intimidating spin on science when they are confused.

I was talking to somebody who claims they know Jesus, and that Jesus Lives
Here's how it went:
Q: Sooooo, who was Jesus's father?
A: God!
Q: Um, Ok...then who would have payed his child support?
A: Joseph
Q: Ok, who was Jesus's mother?
A: Mary
Q: And who was his brother?
A: Mary had daughters that were hers, but we're all Jesus's brothers and sisters.
Q: If thats true, wouldn't your MOM be your sister, and your father be your brother?
Q: And wouldn't we have all been products of incest, which is a sin?
A: I don't know.
Q: Did you know Jesus had a brother? His name was Ya'aqov, (Aglicized as James).
A: No. But we're all his brothers and sisters.

Las Vegas mayor, Oscar Goodman, publicly stated that a person would be crazy to drink his city's tap water (1).He should know, Goodman uses 1.6 million gallons of water at his nearly three-quarter-acre home a month (2). The Las Vegas sewage treatment plant is just six miles upstream from where we get our water. Doesn't that sound backwards, like nature hanging our wet runny noses upside down over our mouths? Shouldn't our water come upstream from the sewage treatment plant?
The Colorado River (which feeds Lake Mead) gets its water from those clear, refreshing Colorado Rocky Mountain streams. Thats what I want to shower in. Wouldn't it be nice to know that when we flush our toilets, we'd be sending the yuck to Pheonix, instead of back into our kitchen faucets.
Recent studies have found perchlorate, which is a rocket fuel component, mutated fish, pharmaceutical residue and human hormones in the wash and the bay. Now thats just nasty.
While I'm on this subject, why don't terrorists bomb sewage systems? Wouldn't that pretty much wreck any town? Where would you go if you were in a casino, and all of the toilets town were backed up? The craps table...

Got a calendar? Circle this date: Friday, August 12th. Next to the circle write "before sunrise" and "Meteors!" Attach all of the above to your refrigerator in plain view so you won't miss the 2005 Perseid meteor shower. The Perseids come every year, beginning in late July and stretching into August. Sky watchers outdoors at the right time can see colorful fireballs, occasional outbursts and, almost always, long hours of gracefully streaking meteors. Among the many nights of the shower, there is always one night that is best. This year is August 12th through the 19th.
Right: A colorful Perseid streaks over Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. Photo credit: Dirk Obudzinski, August 12, 2004. View the gallery
The source of the shower is Comet Swift-Tuttle. Although the comet is nowhere near Earth, the comet's wide tail does intersect Earth's orbit.
We glide through it every year in July and August.
Tiny bits of comet dust hit Earth's atmosphere traveling 132,000 mph.
At that speed, even a tiny smidgen of dust makes a vivid streak of light--a meteor--when it disintegrates. The shower is most intense when Earth is in the dustiest part of the tail. Perseid meteors fly out of the constellation Perseus, hence their name.
The best time to watch is during the hours before sunrise when Perseus is high in the sky: sky map. Between 2 a.m. and dawn on August 12th, if you get away from city lights, you could see hundreds of meteors.

Happy Birthday Amy

The current buzz-word for erectile disfunction is ED.
My girlfriend said she took Drivers Ed in high school. (ED meaning Education).
But now, Drivers Ed could mean "Drivers Erectile Disfunction".
Special Ed could mean "Special Erectile Disfunction".
Now ain't that just special?

If our moon is called "The Moon", should the earth called "The Planet"?
It makes me think of that Kentuckian who named his dog, DAWG.
The following is a small list of planets and moons, with their diameters.
Jupiter=142984 km, Moons:Ganymede=5262 km, Callisto=4800 km, IO=3630 km
Saturn=120536 km, Titan=5150 km
Earth=12756 km, Moon=3474 km
Mercury=4880 km
Pluto=2320 km, Moon: Charon=1207 km
Hale-Bopp Comet=1,100 km
Ceres Asteroid=933 km
Whats a little smaller than Pluto, but larger than Mercury? The MOON (our moon)
Saturn has a moon that is made mostly of ice...ain't that a kick in the head.
All the planets except for Pluto follow the same orbital plain,
I was just putting things in perspective.

We went to Lowes to pick up a replacement doggie door. Found one.
The cashier we went too was on the phone. We stood there.
She got off and I said "Didn't your mom tell you to stay off the phone when you have company".
She said "NO, and my father was a drunk, so if he said it he mumbled".
I said, "Your mother did too tell you that! I know she did! Call her right now!!!"
She said, "But if I did that, I'd be on the phone when I have company".
THEN, we went to Smiths. Becky got some sour cream and chive crackers.
The clerk said "I love those", and showed us a variety box of crackers that he eaten all all the sour creams out of.
I told him, "Yea, Becky loves to eat them as she sits around on the couch all day watching soap opera's".
The bagger said, "OMG-I love those".
I said, "Wow-You mean Days of Our Stupid Lives and As The Stomach Churns".
Now, I didn't think that was all that funny, but three checkers started laughing.
What do you do when you tell a bad joke and people are laughing.
I just stood there with a stupid (unavoidable) grin on my face.

Yesterday, I took 2 Porsche 914's out for a test drive.
These cars offer a wonderful road experience.
They're capable of going 150mph, and get 33mpg.
They're a dream venture between Volkswagen and Porsche, and I believe in the next couple of years,
That they were the cars of the future.
One was a '74 Porsche 914 1.8 ltr.
It was at a car lot.
I could have taken it out the door for $2,500. It looked like it was in excellent shape.
The salesman was reluctant to let me take it anywhere further than around the block.
I didn't even get it into 3rd gear. The steering was hard, the shocks were mushy, the transmission ground a lot.
When we came back, I talked to the manager. He insisted we take it out for a longer test drive.
This time, I got it in to 3rd, and I'd figured I'd seen enough.
The next one was across town. It was advertised on EBay, as in good condition.
The pictures on EBay looked pretty good, but they skipped all of the can spray painted areas that were more than obvious.
The rubber seals on all the windows were shot.
I took it for a test drive, and through the first mile, something was clanging around until it fell off.
It was beautiful ride though...It drove like magic!
However, the generator light kept coming on, the blinkers and break lights didn't work, the left headlight didn't pop up, the stereo didn't work, the door handles didn't work. Not much worked on it.
He had the windshield wipers off for some unknown reason.
When I got back to the owner's house and started to back up, the engine died.
It wouldn't start again for another 30 minutes. The gas pedal fell off while he was trying to start it.
During this time, I the owner talked about all of the things he was going to fix in the car.
He said he was a helicopter mechanic and knew electrical systems. That's just plain scary!!!
Now, why, why, why, do people, when they sell a car, turn into complete liars and assholes?
I just don't get it.
If I knew honestly what was wrong with the car, I could make an honest bid.
Now some poor guy in California is going to win the bid on EBay, come all the way out here, just to find out the seller was lying about almost everything, and all of that time, money and effort will have all been for nothing.

As the dog comes in and goes out, he gets groomed.
No more leaves on the carpet.
The shredding hair could be easily collected.
Heck, you could take this a little further,
and add a doggie wash.
Just hookup the hose, plug it in,
and by the time the doggie gets inside the house,
he'd be washed, dried and brushed.
I think I'll make one for my Squirt.
He sheds a pound of hair a week!!
Thinking about it, how about a people wash door.
I'm a genius!

Oh yea...and when we trimmed you this morning I just gotta say
Gooood lawd! My, my my! What a hairy butt you have.

We went to four places on the list of haunted domains.
We had fun, but nothing extraordinary happened.

When I'm hungover I hear voices. I like them.
Anymore, I'd rather be hungover than drunk...now ain't that a kick in the head.
These voices sound like a TV that has its volume to low to make out whats being said.
They seems to be mumblings, like the sound of people talking in a cafeteria.
I assume they are generated by my subconscious and therefore I can control them.
If I listen closely, I can hear them when its dead quiet in the middle of the night.
Its like those dancing lights that we all see, that a few notice, and even fewer talk about then.
I was researching the euphoria epileptics have before having a seizure.
Overwhelmingly, many of them have this auditory hallucination.
From what I've read about them, they are exactly like I just described my voices.
What do you call it, when a group of people have the same hallucination?
I've always said, I'll believe in ghosts if I see one. I would love to see a ghost. Are these ghosts?
It would be nice to see something of a supernatural nature before I become a ghost.

I was just kickin it on the couch, and I heard voices and whistling.
I asked Becky if she heard the sounds too..she said YEP.
Sonny whistles and sings to himself in the bedroom.

I was on my death bed last night. I did some Echinacea, because, well, why not?
I did some in April, and I seemed to clear up.
I did some last night, and I seem to be cleared up.
I don't get it.
My sniffles and snore throat are gone. I have a little bit of a cough, but its 1/10th of what I had yesterday.
My experiment is this...
Becky has been sneezing, just like me, for 3 days now...all red nosed. I gave her some echinacea this morning.
The test will be how sh'es doing tonight.

We were talking about what gravity would be at the center of the earth.
While talking, I researched different articles, complicated formulas, things people said.
The way the articles stated things, it all seemed so complicated.
I know now, its simple, when its broken down, with all of the confusing formulas and terminalogy.
I started to write the program for determining the motion of an object falling throught the center of the earth, but, haha, it
would take maybe a week to write. The earth would have to be sectioned off by mass, a routine written for the distance and weight of the object as it passes near these masses, and finally, some mile marks for the resulting weight would be generated along the objects path. Not too bad.
I mentioned science had developed a working artificial lung back in the fifty's.
It seems the major problem they have is funding. The lungs are built. They can sustain life. They are powered by the heart.
But, other problems exist, like clotting.
Somehow, we got to talking about Moses, because I was talking to Jennifer about him
Now, I'd read that basically, he went up the mountain, alone, and came back down to his group.
But, before he did all this, he told the people to build a church full of gold and nice things...for God.
I also read, he told everyone to go off and bathe.
Jennifer came up with the classic story about the burning bush, and God talking only to Moses, and she didn't see anything odd about this.
So, I started rereading the Bible on Moses. I about fell asleep on the lengthy portions of what God wanted in his church. Wow. Boring. A lot of gimme gimme gimme in there. I'll finish it up later, but for now, it seems like a great swap for a couple of tablets with chiselled words on them. Actually, from what I've read, it had to be a GREAT IDEA for way back then, to give the people a decent place to go, and to give them some rules to follow...like a club. It would sure beat living in a hut.

And me, On Dancer, the nostric rainydear. 
We're both snot slinging sick. I know, its all in our heads.
But I go to the stores and hear people gagging and sneezing so its not just me.
Nellis must be testing pepper bombs left over from the cold war!!! (snarf snarf).
At any rate, I feel like a cow pie, not that I could smell it.

Go Squirt Go

Sonny's sneezing. Becky's sneezing. I'm sneezing and wheezing.
People everywhere are coughing and sneezing. Makes me think maybe its not black mold.
I still can't think straight, so, I'm not going to be doing much until whatever I have goes away.
Seeing a doctor was a move in the right direction. Lets see if I can steer it around some.
Erythromyicin, steroids, and Albuterol. I wonder one is messing with my head. hmmm.

If I weighed 150lbs in Death Valley, would I weigh 149lbs on Mt Everist?
The difference is insignificant.
Would I weigh nothing at the earths core?
Most PHDs think you would weigh nothing at the Earths core.
You'd be pulled outward equally, in all directions.

Happy Birthday Squirt!

I went to UMC with severe breathing problems. 
I told the receptions I have asthma, and probably a lung infection.
I also told her I was unemployed, uninsured, and I'd have to pay cash.
The receptionist said it would cost $95.
A nurse checked my blood pressure and told me to relax, she put me in a room and gave me albuterol nebulizer treatment. Later, another nurse came in, and she took 2 X-Rays.
Doctor Fellows came into the room and said I didn't have cancer. Okay...um.
He gave me a prescription for 5 antibiotics (I specified Erythromyicin) , 1 albuterol inhaler, and albuterol for my nebulizer.
He told me to see a Primary Care Physician with one week.
When I left, I went up to the receptionist, and paid her $95.
The receptionist said I'd get an invoice in the mail in two weeks.

I asked a kid, because the dog just licked his butt, and was licking the kids tongue.

Near Magical: Symbicort turbohalers, Seretide inhalers and Serevent aerosols
Xolair - Injections
Corticosteroids
I've tried Albuterol, Primatine Mist, Atrovent...and they all work, um, OK.

Hey Mikey! Sonny's sleeping.
I put your doggy pic in your log heading. You can delete it if you want.
Sonny said thanks. Dustin has control of his PC.

He'll be 56 years old.

Joy washed clothes over here. Robert swung by.
Becky made 14 coctail weinees, rice and beans for everyone. Dustin grabbed 8 of the 14 weinees.
Later, he asked Becky if he could have a soda. She said yes.
He came out of the laundry popped the top to a rootbeer, and said "I got the last rootbeer, hahaha".
I told Dustin that was extremely bad manners. If you see there is only one left of something, you ask if you can have it.
You don't brag about taking it. Dustin walked away from me when I was talking to him.
I asked everyone what they thought about what Dustin did, everyone said it was rude.
I told Dustin, I just wanted him to have good manners over here. I wasn't trying to hurt him.
Dustin ignored me, so I called GMa. Her phone didn't answer, so I pretended to talk to her, telling her about what Dustin did. I offered the phone to Dustin, and he wouldn't take it.
He went into the rooms closet, walking away from me again.
At that point, Becky went in and scolded him, but he wasn't listening.
I came in, told him I wasn't trying to hurt his feelings, I was just trying to teach him better manners.
I asked him how he'd feel how he'd feel if I bought him a six pack of root beers, and Jennifer drank them all.
He said, "God will provide me with more". At about that time, I told him he was full of crap. He'd probably yell at her.
He told me not to swear around him.

We put it in for Dustin and Jennifer.
Dustin is playing an endless stream of games. Jennifer is drawing pictures with paint.
Its always seemed to work this way. The grownup watch the kids movies. The kids play games.
I jumped on Jennifer for complaining about a sandwich Becky made for her.
She said, "This egg salad has onions, I hate onions. Ewwe.".
I jumped in and told her that she was showing terrible manners.
When someone cooks for you, and serves you, you should never complain about their kindness.
I told her she should have learned this when she was much younger.
She apologized and ate the egg salad sandwich.

Sonny backed out. He said because his daughter ran away, but she lives with her mom.
My breathing is currently a disability. I didn't sleep much. I wouldn't be much help setting up camp.
All in all, the trip wasn't going to turn out to be much fun, especially for me.
We'll reschedule if and when my lungs clear up.

Our site will be in he mountains next to the lake. It costs $15 a night with water, very basic bathrooms. Its a couple of miles from Big Bear City (eg: McDonalds).
I asked Dustin what he was bringing.
He said, "4 pairs of clothes, 4 pairs of pajamas, 4 pairs of underwear, and a nightlight.".
I told him we're only staying two nights, so, why 4 pairs of clothes, underwear and pajamas.
He said one for today, and one for when we get back.
Dustin said he brought the night light, so I wouldn't need a lantern.
I asked him if it plugs into the wall. He said "yes".
I told him we'll be in tents. He said..."oh"...
I'm still trying to get over him bringing pajamas.
Dustin brought this really nice cross country backback.
I asked him where he got it.
He said from his Boy Scout leaders, but they're not leaders anymore because they're lazy.
I asked him who actually gave it to him. He said, "Well, my friend Sebastion did".
Then I asked, "So your going to have to give it back to him?".
He said "No. I accidentally left it over at his house, so he gave it back to me".
So I asked him, "So, where did you actually first get it?".
He said, "In a warehouse that was full of stuff. The Boy Scout leaders gave it to him, then they got fired".
I may never know where Dustin got his $300 backpack from.
Dustin and Jennifer stayed over.
Dustin was actually pretty good, and Jennifer, as always, was great!

Several people came by. GMa really did a great job with the decorations.
My breathing was terrible and GMa was very accomodating.
She put me on a nebulizer, then beat my back to break up the flim.
She was absolutely wonderful.

I kind of thought he would. He gets off at 7am on Monday morning and he's usually beat.
I told him he could sleep in the back of the truck during the 3 hour trip.
But ya know, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep. I don't blame him for ditching the trip.
However, it is sad that for him, this will be just another weekend gone by.
Most people only get 4,000 weekends during their life time.
For us, it will be a weekend that we'll remember for the rest of our lives.

Took Robert to the dentist. It was the same dentist who said if Robert had his abscessed tooth pulled, all the teeth in front of it would lean backwards. The tooth above it would eventually loosen.
I know this is a lie.
My teeth aren't leaning. The teeth above my pulled teeth are still there.
I'm 50 and still have most of my teeth.
I know this is the truth.
Robert's dentist wouldn't help him until he openned a checking account.
She took money for the office visit.
She wanted $2,500 for a root canal on one of his back teeth.
Her motive seems obvious. Screw Robert and his financial situation. She told canned stories to make money.
Becky, Robert, Chrissy, Ida, and myself joined in a group IM
It was cool! I really like messenger.

I switched from Opals to Mistys when I went fo Florida and my asthma went away.
Mistys are higher quality than Opals.
I switched back to Opals after coming to Vegas and my asthma came back.
Now that I've pinned the cause and am smoking Mistys, my breathing has already improved.
Now, I know, I should quit.
But I've heard a lot of things said about smoking that can't be true.
Cancer, for instance. The only person to have died in my family from cancer, did not smoke.
Matter of fact, she's one of the few people in my family that didn't smoke.
My grandfather died at 93. All I know is what I see. What I've seen is not what I've heard. I make up my own mind.
People who don't smoke think smokers are disgusting addicts, but we smokers actually enjoy the habit.
I personally despise the oppression and propaganda from a country that promotes corn syrup, red meat, fried foods, alcohol, nitrates, food coloring and other consumables known to cause premature death.
This country promotes fuels that cause green house gases.
So, I smoke. Its the only rebellious thing I do.
I'm just happy I know whats causing my breathing difficulties, and it isn't Las Vegas.
So, I can stay here.

I pride my self on my ability to fix just about anything.
Well, I've messed up the diagnostic reasoning on myself.
Diagnosing any problem, should include the primary question: What changed?
I assumed the following:
- I was breathing poorly when I left Las Vegas
- It cleared up in Orlando
- I'm breathing poorly now.
- Hence, Vegas must be the problem.
I forgot a few variables.
- I barely drank in Orlando.
- We changed brands of cigarettes from Opal to Misty
My breathing problems began outside of Las Vegas, however, we switched to Opals in Laughlin.
My analysis of the problem is severly flawed.
I assumed have chronic bronchitis (fatal in 10 years), asthma, allergies to desert pollen and dust.
Stupid me, it could be the toxins in Opal cigarettes.
I know I should quit.
But I've been smoking since I was 15.
Why would it hit me like a ton of bricks, right after moving?
See, my logic has holes in it.

The explosion went up 300 feet, and burned throughout the next day.
They said the lightning came from 10 miles away.
The storm had winds of 70 MPH, and nickel sized hail.

 

I asked Renee "How long did it take to put the streaks in your hair?".
She said, "I don't know. Someone else did it".
\Later on, she said "Hey! I really like your purse, Mom".
Then she started taking everything out of it...
Then she was on the phone and asked me "What do you call a sheep's boss".
I said "A shepperd, like Chuck Shepperd, your old boyfriend?"
Blonde moments are fun.
