I love Velcro. I use it for all kinds of things. In this instance

I use it to hold a pen in a very convenient place. This pen

is next to my Blu-ray player. Before I watch a movie I take an

envelope that is in the movie case and write the current date

on it. That's how I remember the date of my last viewing.

Weird, but true.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, 2025!!

~ Wienerschnitzel in Diamond Bar, California ~
A short short video.

That's the longest long bus I have ever seen.

We had another little visitor outside the house today.

When I moved this rattlesnake, he was pretty calm.

I had to add this one. On this blustery but beautiful 

day, the American flag looks magnificent!

And look what we have here. Happy Momma Pig

is feeding her hungry babies. Just perfect for Pig Day!

Oink oink!

For about two years, every place I have gone, I have

kept my eye out for 8 inch aluminum pizza pans.

I just want them for general stuff around the cooking

area. I never found any... anywhere.

I finally wangled free shipping from Amazon and

got both of these for a total of  $5.80.

And that's the name a'
THAT tune. Huzzah!

Whatever.

I found what I think is a pretty good deal. The clearance section
 at Walmart had two DVD copies of "The First Omen" on sale for
$5.00. I have heard that this movie is FANTASTIC. I was really
looking forward to watching it, but when I got home I checked my
receipt and discovered that they had charged me
the full price of $17.96.

Now I can't open and watch it until I go back next week to

have the price adjusted. I should have checked the receipt

before I left the store. Silly rabbit.

Oh well. I have something to look forward to.

I saw this truck parked today. This one has a pool table
and a bar back there. There is no way that it doesn't.
And there is also probably a smallish dance floor
with a mirrored disco ball.

I pruned the jalapenos that I have growing in the garage.

This is the first time I have done that with these.
We'll see how it goes.

Happy Valentine's Day, 2025
from
El Rancho De La Tex

A cannister I bought at the thrift store.
I believe that it had been filled with tea.

And as promised, here are all my pals together. The name of the

guy on the left is Twenty-Four, because I bought him in 2024.

The guy in the middle, his name is BC because he was my first

Birthday Cactus (2023). And finally, on the right is Twenty-Five
because I bought him for my birthday this year. Makes sense, eh?

When you give a cactus a name, great responsibility is yours.

A brand new American flag is flying over The Ranch.

!!! Ghost Pepper Update !!!

I planted my Ghost Pepper Plant from seed on

Wednesday, June 21, 2023. I pruned it the first

time on Friday, February 2, 2024. Now that
most of the leaves have again fallen off...

...I pruned it for the second time.

No peppers so far. All we are

asking for is one little measly pepper.

We're dying to try one.

We have yet to give up on this little guy.

Stay tuned (again)!
