Just babbling

Good afternoon, every body! Hope your day is a good one so far. Mine is, I guess. Just got through reading random blogs at homeschoolblogger and blogspot. People sure do write in so many different ways. Some write instructional blogs, some just post lyrics from songs, others post nothing but videos they've made on YOU TUBE. Although, now that I think about it, I did only see ONE sort of instructional post, and it was more about a tool he got that made the grooves on the ends of pipes. Oh yeah, it was a metal lathe. One blog complained that he/she doesn't think she should have to post more than a couple of times every other week because "my life's just not that exciting". Boy, can I understand that comment. Yet here I am trying to post pretty much every day, or at the very minimum, every other day, and *my* life is *definitely* not exciting on the homestead. I mean really, who wants to read about what the chickens or cats are doing? Chickens just wander around eating and messing with each other. And the cats? If they're inside, they're usually sleeping or eating. If they're outside, who knows? I did see one, when I looked out the bathroom window earlier, carrying some sort of rat-looking thing. I really don't know what it was, but it was fairly big, but not rabbit-big. I dunno. Other people just pretty much write about nothing, not even coherently really, meaning I couldn't figure out what the hell they were talking about. *grin* I'm just babbling. *sigh*

I have nothing else.

My morning, homeschooling blog, stupid senators

Doing pretty well. Got up this morning after my wife came in to wake me. I was already awake, just hadn't gotten out of bed yet (I was so comfy). She asked me if I'd like a cup of tea heated up, and of course I said, "Sure". I sure do love her. Once I got up, the cup with hot see was sitting on the coffee table waiting for me. *smile* Then I watch the end of the Price Is Right. While waiting for the news to come on, I started one of two antispyware scans on the computer. At the first break in the news I started the oil heating up to I could make some fries. After a few minutes, I dropped the basket with some fries in it into the grease, waited about 4 or so minutes, and they were done. Put them on a plate, added ketchup, took them to the living room, and I watch the rest of the news. At the next break I started a hamburger cooking, and in about 15 minutes it was done. I put it on the same plate the fries were on, and took that to the living room as well, and finished watching the news. Once that was over, I finished the first scan, restarted the computer and started the 2nd one. When that done, I restarted the computer again, and started the Disk Defragmenter. While that was running, I took a shower. After that, I read some email, responded to quite a few of them, read some blogs, responded to a few, and now here I am writing my own blog. *smile* In one of the emails I got this morning, I found out about yet another blogging site, but it for homeschoolers, and you can find it at homeschoolblogger.com. Haven't decided if I'm going to get an account there or not. I might get one and then see if I can send entries in via Qumana or Zoundry, and if I can, then I'll keep the account, but if not, just delete it, or whatever.

US Senate backs terror trial bill

As for the news... that was sad. Why? Because the idiot senators passed an unconstitutional (IMO) and archaic bill that pretty much strips anyone who's picked-up and accused of being a "threat" to the u.S. of their rights. If you weren't born in the u.S. you can be denied Habeas Corpus and held pretty much forever without being able to question why you were picked up. You won't get a lawyer, be able to contact a lawyer, or be able to sue the u.S. government if you ever do get out. It's a sad, sad day in these united States :-( Hopefully it'll be challenged and overturned. *crossing fingers*
