Mid-week or hump day




Hello:
This picture show accommodations in parts of Argentina. August in Argentina is cold, according to my cousin there, Mecha Schwindt.
I am trying to put pictures here now to see how this goes. The picture is medium size.
An openly gay character in the Archie comics. Talk of the Nation has a long story on it today.
For dinner, I cut up four tomatoes for my dinner. I did not eat them all yet. I had soup in addition to my tomatoes.
In The Tiger, it ends as two people are killed by this tiger. The subtitle of this book The Story of Vengeance and Survival. The author is John Vaillant. With 50 pages to go I know the tiger will be killed as it now hunts humans. It is hard to attribute human emotions to animals, but this tiger, before it killed a second young man, raided an empty camp, dragged a mattress 50 yards away and settled on that mattress, waiting the next human to come by. The second victim went out to check his traps, as animal trapping is a popular way to earn money there.
The tiger ate both people so there was not much left to bury.
The authorities in eastern Russia got permission from Moscow to kill this tiger as they are a protected species.
The book ends with the hunt for the tiger.
Like I told you earlier this is an excellent book.

Pictures of the day once again...



More panda pictures. The top one shows them searching for something lost. In the bottom picture one panda is giving a boost to another one who is trying to get up the tree.

Bland day this day

Hi:

This is a bland day, not much happening here.

I am still reading The Tiger. It is an excellent book.

I copied two recipes today. One is for fudge brownies. The other is for Very Special pancakes. I will try to make one of them this week.

I ate a tomato salad for lunch today. My tomatoes are so very good, both the Willamette and the Early Girl one (hanging upside down).

I am still working on my cookies I made an Saturday. It looks like they will last me all week.

Still editing Creation, an Epic Poem. Spent three hours today making the corrections I made last night in the nth reading of it on my Kindle 3. I hope this is the last edit. We shall see.

I have been recording my TV shows.

I do hope your week is going well.

What the spell-checker does got get..

The tiger attacked the man, and did not become attached to the man.

The tiger did not just kill the man, he ate most of him. The coffin was very light according to the people at the funeral. They never told his wife what happen to him, just that a tiger killed him. She wanted him buried in a new suit so she rushed around to find one. Needless to say, but suit did not fit what was left of him.

This book is excellent as it goes into the history of tigers around the world and even back in time the to saber-tooth tigers.

More panda pictures. In the top picture one is asking the other for a napkin.
In the bottom picture this panda is saying his confession. My fellow mackerel snappers will understand this last one.
