So much garbage running through my head I just don't know what to write about today...so I'm taking a break of sorts.
Thinking about what to prepare for dinner tomorrow...and the possibilities appear to be endless. there is the Palin canned special - as seen here.
I'm not sure what food group this falls into...but if we don't like it - the dog will!
I'm sure everyone has wondered what this little can of goodies might taste like...but it definitely won't be me to pass the info on.For years, and I mean years...my father had a can of diamondback rattlesnake meat in our pantry. Every time I would clean the shelves and run across this delicacy, I begged the parents to let me throw it away. Oh nooooooo... dad was going to try it one day. I do believe it was still hiding in the pantry when I moved out of their house. But I remember Graham Kerr - the Galloping Gourmet preparing a dish using the exact can of snake meat. If anyone remembers Kerr, he made no bones about showing disgust if the meal he prepared was gross - this was the reaction I remember.

I have been watching the Sotomayor hearings before the senate on CNN as our C-Span only aired the first day. I have gotten to the point I want to jump through the boob tube and throttle a few ignorant senators. The racist Jeff Sessions can jump off a cliff as far as I'm concerned.
The "wise Latina" statement has gotten out of hand. I'm a little upset that she has back downed from that original statement - as it definitely makes sense. I think her move is more of an appeasement than anything else. But over and over these senators are leaving off the last few words that corroborate the statement - thus ending up with an insulting remark. Good grief.
Our Jamboree In The Hills begins tomorrow, and in the past our local TV station has covered the entire show (Thurs-Sun). Unfortunately, this year they are only televising Thursday and Saturday. If the lineup were a great one I would be more pissed - but the lineup SUCKS!!
Also, we do not have a big name cable company in our neighborhood - we have an independently owned service. As of July 31st we are losing our only 2 local channels (WTOV and WTRF), and therefore, will not have access to local news at all. Supposedly, he cannot reach a financial agreement with either station....this has me pissed, not to mention quite a few in the neighborhood. If we could switch to Comcast, which I don't relish, it would be great. that is not an option. I'm not a happy camper to say the least.
The lights will be coming on, on the deck soon and the air is cooling off - another nice evening for me here on the back deck.
I'll check back ................... later.......................
