    Does anyone know what type of hummingbird this is? Maybe a rare Southwestern Mule-toothed Hummingbird? IDK?

    This is a step above my plastic bucket-built sandcastles that I built when I was a kid visiting the beach!

    Tried it and was added to the victim list of failed concoctions.

    99 lbs had a real good laugh though!

    If you fart by your wood stove, at least some of it will be drawn in through the intake and burned.
    Therefore, you're heating your home with farts.

    I've noticed that driving I seem to be the only one who knows how to drive. :D Also apparently blinkers are an option now.

    A great woman erased from history by idiots.
    The branding of the syrup was a tribute to this woman’s gifts and talents. Now future generations will not even know this beautiful woman exsted. What a shame. The world knew her as “Aunt Jemima”, but her given name was Nancy Green and she was a true American success story. She was born a slave in 1834 Montgomery County, KY. and became a wealthy superstar in the advertising world, as its first living trademark. Green was 56-yrs old when she was selected as spokesperson for a new ready-mixed, self-rising pancake flour and made her debut in 1893 at a fair and exposition in Chicago. She demnstrated the pancake mix and served thousands of pancakes, and became an immediate star [​IMG][​IMG]. She was a good storyteller, her personality was warm and appealing, and her showmanship was exceptional. Her exhibition booth drew so many people that special security personnel were assigned to keep the crowds moving. Nancy Green was signed to a lifetime contract, traveled on promotional tours all over the country, and was extrmely well paid. Her financial freedom and stature as a national spokesperson enabled her to become a leading advocate against poverty and in favor of equal rights for all Americans. She maintained her job until her death in 1923, at age 89. [​IMG]This was a remarkable woman, and sadly she has been ERASED by politics.
