Goodnight TT and do listen to the weather Radio! I hope you have it near you.

I have a friend up in the Northern part of Wisconsin that has cows. However, she raises cows to butcher them. ARggg! I want one as a pet!

 

[SecondChance]

Ok...tech, just to humor you I will say Good Night! but I will still be up for a bit longer.... Unfortunately I do have to work tomorrow so I can pay for T's Sociable Security Check.... So I can't stay up too late!!

Perhaps I've already told you guys this story...I do repeat myself nowadays...
When I was a kid, my grandparents had cows. Big stupid brown ones. We'd entertain ourselves running the length of the electric fence to see if the steer/bull or whatever he was would chase us. He was terrifying, and I was always afraid that he'd charge right through that fence & kill me.
Anyway. Every year or so they'd butcher a cow and we'd all get a freezer full. We also got pork & rabbit this way too.
I was around 16 when I realized (while standing in the cutting room at the butcher shop overseeing our meat cuts) that
this meat came from those cows...and the bunnies I had played with, were those rabbits...
I was such a dopey kid, I had never made that connection before...and I cried for days...then I had a steak.

Sounds like me! Until one day someone gave my mom 8 or 9 live chickens. (Can't remember the exact number). She killed them and my grandma cleaned them and put most of it in the freezer. The next day we had chicken. I seen the "act" of the kill. I turned out to be a vegan for years. (I know I am so weak!)

Good morning TT and friends!

Today I've brought us a special treat from Pokey's House of Java:

That's right...invisible coffee from your invisible friend. Enjoy.


I hope that the fire's have not chased you from your homes, my two Texans - and that all is well and the threat diminished by this morning.

And I hope all of the rest of you find yourselves well and have a good start to a good day.

 

[tgcrna]

Ha Ha Pokey!! Invisible coffee from an invisible friend, indeed! You are too funny!
The one morning I'm up at this unseemly hour and I get invisible coffee! Dear friend, I need really, really strong coffee at this hour
I also hope everyone has a good day!!

 

[TexasT]

Good morning Pokey and Nursie T.

Heck, at this time of day I'll take any coffee I can get and thank you for it.

LOL, no little ol fire is gonna chase me and we're fine this morning.

And I hope you guys have a wonderful day too.

OH! But WOW Tg up at such an early hour? Just doesn't seem right! That is almost like seeing Free here before midnight! I might need a nap after seeing this
