From Kevin Doyle…This very interesting & will make you think!
Question 1:
If you knew a woman who was pregnant,
Who had 8 kids already,
Three who were deaf,
Two who were blind,
One mentally retarded,
And she had syphilis,
Would you recommend that she undergoes an abortion?
Read the next question before looking at the response for this one.
Question 2:
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts..
Here are the facts about the three candidates.
Candidate A:
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologists.
He’s had two mistresses.
He also chain smokes
And drinks 8 to 10 Martinis a day.
Candidate B:
He was kicked out of office twice,
Sleeps until noon,
Used opium in college
And drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
Candidate C:
He is a decorated war hero,
He’s a vegetarian,
Doesn’t smoke,
Drinks an occasional beer
And never committed adultery.
Which of these candidates would be your choice?
Decide first … No peeking, and then scroll down for the response.

And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question:
If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven.
Pretty interesting isn’t it?
Makes a person think before judging someone.
Remember:
Amateurs … Built the ark.
Professionals … Built the Titanic
On the morning before Palm Sunday we woke up to more Global Warming…
As you can guess by the bird tracks on the porch, we feed the birds over the winter. The only guests we’ve had.
Happy Palm Sunday and Easter.
All evening and all night it snowed…No it’s not much. A couple to three inches. In January that’s a heavy frost.
But it’s Palm Sunday, March 29th for Heaven’s sake!The ground’s covered. Again. The strong spring sun can’t reach the ground to warm it. I don’t have any idea when the soil temperatures are going to reach the level needed for planting this year.
This is why I added the Category “Cranky” to the blog. I may need a category of “very cranky”.

Laughed until my teeth ached.
OK, as soon as I get out of physical therapy I’m going to get a model and take those figure shots I’ve been planning to do for years.
The Maple Festival is supposed to celebrate the culmination of sugaring season in Maine. There’s a problem.
There is no sugaring season in Maine, and there might not be one this year to speak of. During the Maple Festivals, the sugar houses of small to medium-sized maple syrup producers open their doors for a pseudo-open-house look at how they make syrup, and to sell their wares to the public. There are no wares this year because there is no sugar. In order to get the maple sap that gets boiled endlessly down into syrup, the temperature has to rise above 32 degrees Farenheit for more than ten minutes at a time, and it hasn’t done so. The temperature at my house was below zero last night, and the temperature has been 5-10 degrees below normal every month for two years. I’ve read that sugar houses are opening up for the Maple Festival and simply boiling water from the tap to show people what maple sugar season would look like if we had one, which we don’t.
Robert Heinlein wrote (thirty years ago) about the likely-hood that when things started getting colder in Europe centuries ago they piled on the wood and coal and staved off another mini ice-age. Today the EPA is seriously attempting to ban burning all wood and coal. We’ll miss the maple sugar in the morning on our pancakes when it’s gone.
Boston Duck Tours will begin its 21st season today, but with some special measures to avoid frozen feathers. The duck boats will either not go in the water at all or make an abbreviated swim thanks to ice still clogging the Charles River.
“Any time you go in the water with ice, it’s not a good idea. The Titanic is a good example,” said Bob Schwartz, a spokesman for Boston Duck Tours.
Happy Birthday to Me. 65 years of age.
And the urge to go somewhere warm is creeping up on me.
