Mr. Ed
Wait a Minute! One of those demented Eds is a Wolf - Pee Wee Wolfman Ed.
Another is the infamous old Jersey Devil - a flying reptile who actually eats pigs - whole.
And, of course, the third Ed, old Edvard, is actually a lecherous old vampire. You don't even wanna know what goes on in his Swedish Castle dungeon.

That poor Clem has a lot to learn. I made the holes in our two seater outhouse the exact same size. I even put one of those Lavender Air Fresheners on her side. We have lots of lovely conversations in there now! (But it does get kind of crowded when the dogs want to use it, too.)

Very, very amusing but you missed Adam's first hangover, hard cider. Love your reference to the Pabst bottle baby. That became my first blue ribbon headache! Patrick
2/22/10 ... PAT -
GOOD POINT! But, Adam’s ‘Apple’ and Mike’s ‘Hard Cider’ didn’t quite co-exist yet.
And - “BLUE RIBBON” - didn’t ‘catch on’ until sometime much later!
Glad you enjoyed - appreciate the comments. Tom.
** P.M. ** as in - POST MORTEM ... as opposed to Post Script ...
Oddly enough, just a few days after posting this piece, watched a Documentary about ‘Secrets of The Great Pyramid - in it, they showed a ‘dig’ in which a 4,500 year-old Carsophagus was accompanied by none other than ‘beer jars’ - so, apparently the ancient Egyptians were drinking beer, way back then!
Considering that they stored Grains in Silos, which were often Guarded during periods of possible Famine - wheat, and barley, and malt, and hops were probably quite prevalent! Who knew?

No thank you on the alchohol, but I do love milk & some sodas, though diet are what I drink nowadays...by the way, you ARE long winded or long writing, hee-hee...ed
ED - LONG WINDED? MOI?
CAUTION ON ‘DIET’ SODAS - MAKE SURE NO ASPARTAME! = POISON!
GOOGLE THE WORD ... SOME ‘EXPERTS’ BELIEVE THAT IN ‘DESERT STORM’ THOUSANDS OF CASES OF PALLETIZED DIET SODAS, AFTER SITTING IN THE HOT SUN, HAD THE ASPARTAME TRANSFORM INTO FORMALDEHIDE - CAUSING MANY VETERANS LONG TERM ILLNESSES!
OTHERS STATE THAT FREQUENT DIGESTION OF ASPARTAME HAS CAUSED PEOPLE TO BE WRONGLY DIAGNOSED WITH M-S!
SIMPLE CHEAP TEST IS TO AVOID IT FOR 30 CONSECUTIVE DAYS - AND SEE IF ANY ‘SYMPTOMS’ MIRACULOUSLY DISAPPEAR!
CONSIDERING WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH HEALTHWISE - IT
COULD VERY WELL BE A CAUSAL RELATIONSHIP!
PEACE - FRIEND ... TOM.

Interesting. We will look up that film. Most people who reside in the Fraser valley here in Canada don't know that we are providing a great deal of water to Washington St. and further south. The Chilliwack river touches on the border between our two countries and is being diverted away from the agricultural land in the south west of the valley; right under our nosed and blind folds. In addition, much of the land which has small rivers/creeks running through it has options placed on them for future development of hydro power. So even if you were to buy a parcel of land with this feature, guess what??? the water is not yours. Want a drink anyone? Water is gold alright and we all pay the sur-charges in one way or another. Thanks for sharing Tom. Hugs, J'nia

Mr. Ed
Contrary to what many still like to believe – fresh water, like every other resource on this dying planet, is a finite commodity, not infinite.
Global consumption of water is now doubling every 20 years, and our human population growth is now skyrocketing out of control. According to the UN, more than one billion people already lack access to fresh drinking water.
If these current trends persist, by the year 2025 the demand for freshwater is expected to rise to 56 percent above the amount that is currently available.
And, if all the above is true , it shouldn’t surprise anyone that gigantic corporations, like they do with every other dwindling resource, will be the ones deciding who gets the vanishing water, and how much it will cost them.
The family farm is already a thing of the past; giant corporations own the farming industry, and control our food prices, as they do the oil industry. Corporate owned water will soon join corporate owned food and fuel. And those that can afford to, will pay any price for Earth’s dwindling fresh water in the years to come.
This old world of ours just keeps getting worse.
ED -
