The GF said there were a bunch of ducks in the pond....told her to toss some bread or similar near or in the water and they will hang around, but if she sees any flying rats (pigeons) ceasefire with the bread.

Get some non-GMO corn - most ducks love corn

I'm anxious to see how the bananas are doing, according to the GF they should be ready to harvest fairly soon. I'll post some pics. Never grew tropical fruit in the past, hope they are decent.

Please tell Lannie that Valerian root extract is working well for me, haven't had any problems sleeping since it arrived.
She will read that in the morning, but it is very good to hear that it works for you. Is that also what you sent Jimi?

Yep, Jimi said he received it, but I haven't heard whether it helped him or not.

Nasty tasting, but it damn sure works. Real bitter taste.

Hmmm... pretty sure what Lannie takes is a pill/capsule.

She does take lots of liquid stuff, but I think those are all things she makes by soaking her herby stuff in vodka to turn it into a liquid, which she then puts a spoonful of into a glass of water.... But I have no idea what all those potions are for. Oh well...

I think she mentioned using the capsules too. I found the root extract and thought it would be powerful....it is....:teehee:

Well, I hope Jimi will use it and that it works for him as well as it is doing for you.
I tried CBD in the past, I believe Valerian has it beat.
Isn't CBD that new oil made from mary jane?

And speaking of sleep, I think it is time to put myself in that condition now (procedure: lay head on pillow, pet kitty, close eyes, wake up in morning). G'nite.

I have the DSL stuff too, but given that the phone company whose wires I use is also my ISP, in the event my modem enters chaotic space, they will merely materialize a new one.

Not here in Bell south territory. And they are my isp as well.
Well they will for around $150 for a $60 modem/router combo. Plus a service call since the problem was in my equipment.
They give you the original router/modem combo but do not replace it for free if it fails.

I did have to resort to calling their tech support and talking to an indian sounding Derrick :)

He was quite helpful but worked off of a script as do virtually all help center staff.

I had no idea what the VPJ and VCI values should have been set to nor even a clue as to what they are for.

But dumped the settings to hard copy once I got it going. And put it in my DSL folder in my file cabinet.
And ordered 2 more modems since motorola is not longer making them.

Could be because your ISP, Bell South, wants to rule the world, and mine, Golden West Telecommunications, Inc., is a local co-op (who actually sends me a profit sharing check once a year, minuscule as it may be) and they claim to be in business to help rather than rule the world (which we both know is a huge lie, but it has a lot of locals convinced). ;)

Ma Bell is alive and huge once again.
Verizon is owned by Bell Atlantic dba as verizon.

Have no choice out in the sticks.
DSL is my best option so far.

Talked to my sister in St Louis this afternoon, claimed they are supposed to get 6-8 inches of snow tonight.

A micro singularity burned out the flux capacitor in my DSL modem.
And NO one within 60 miles of here stocks them any more.
Only the cable and VDSL modems.
I am just living in the digital past I suspect.
Not your lucky day, again.......

you grow sprouts in the house during the winter?
I don't grow anything but older. :rolleyes:

Lannie plants things in the house toward the end of winter, then usually transfers them outside when the weather is good enough. I do not believe we do little green things inside all winter.

I planted a couple trays of pumpkin seeds two days ago, they'll be breakfast in the morning, the damn things are tasty.

Sorry I disappeared for so long. I was downloading program updates from Microsoft and they fucked up my computer, so I had to do a system restore. Gawd only knows what all they managed to screw up. But I'm going to bed now and I'll try to fix it all tomorrow.

Nitey nite.
