West Poised for Worst Grasshopper Outbreak in 30 Years

The worst grasshopper outbreak in decades may envelop the western states this summer, scientists warn.
A dramatic rise in the number of grasshoppers was found during a survey of the western states conducted last year, by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). And while that may seem bad enough on its own, it's really the grasshoppers' kids that are the threat. link:

wars, earthquakes, floods, Grasshopper.......Hello get the picture .....just sayin

John Daly may not had won at the Crowne Plaza Invitational in ft worth but he can be pleased with his game I did see improvement over the last time I watched him. Keep going John I think he is good for golf he at least has turned his act around, now if Tiger will do the same ...Tiger should play next week his neck has gotten better yeah right. If the British Open wasn't coming up, Tiger would still be hurt.

I hope all have a good memorial day

Remembering Memorial Day


For many, Memorial Day brings to mind images of parades and picnics, of barbecues and baseball games. What's sometimes forgotten are the reasons for the holiday: The sacrifices made by American soldiers in times of conflict. link
As the United States' death toll passes 1,000 in Afghanistan, Memorial Day takes on an especially poignant meaning this year. Here's a brief look at how the holiday got its start, and how people are searching for ways to honor the brave men and women who have lost their lives.

Thank You

Thirty-six states could start shipping loads of radioactive waste through Texas for more than a decade -- likely crisscrossing the Metroplex on major highways and train tracks -- if they get approval this summer to send their contaminated materials to a West Texas disposal site.Read more: http://www.star-telegram.com/2010/05/29/2226488/proposal-to-truck-radioactive.html#ixzz0pQEs5Q8Q

More Healthcare news

Danish company pulls diabetes drugs from Greece over price cut

Novo Nordisk
COPENHAGEN (AFP) - Danish pharmaceutical group Novo Nordisk said Saturday it was pulling 17 types of medication for treating diabetes from the Greek market following a government decree to lower prices of drugs. Full Story »

I hope Novo Nordisk doesn't treat Obama healthcare in America the same way. I wander how many pharmaceutical companies will pull drugs that work from us?
Everyone wants alternative energy and stop drilling now .

What happen

About a year ago the the big story was swine flu the end all virus. Looks like I was right the US govt over reacted.....The only thing that's the same is the demo's are still writing checks that we can't cash...Obama help bail out Greece and he won't even help pay my electric bill whats up Big Brother.



Saw last night on the news that Polaris is shutting down a plant in Wisconsin laying off 615 employees and moving shop to Mexico. I guess that's one way to stop the immigration issue, just take all the jobs to Mexico. I don't think its as easy to migrate to Mexico they will ask to see your papers. I guess the 615 can become artist or country music stars since they have health care.



I heard the other day on CNN that the BP leak was the worst ever ...Wow I thought the leak the Mexico had that leaked for 9 months was the worst...the world has a way of cleaning up our mistakes ......What happen to the black hole, just wandering...



What America needs is a good dose of Jesus
Not much to report:

Woke up at 6 am and took 3 vehicles and washed them ( with the little woman's help)

Ate breakfast at the donut shop full of sugar

vacuumed all 3 vehicles ,shined the dashes and removed tree sap from flipper ( PT)

Went golfin played 9 holes took a headache came home took a nap

Dovie is cleaning the pond out for the dogs.

Front yard looks great if I say so myself.

I had a census work come by wanting to ask questions I told her I sent in my form with all correct answers and that she could read it.

I need to do alittle garage cleaning tomorrow its cluttered up again.

What is there to talk about

With all this rain lately Lake Bridgeport is full and should be full of campers all summer . I drove out by wise county park over mothers day weekend and it was already full of people camping, I almost wanted to get my tent and join them, I did say almost. The golf course should benefit also. My yard has been mowed about 4 times this year it doesn't seem to be growing very fast. My roses have enjoyed the rain and have looked wonderful at times.

I have took it upon myself to find the best burger in B'port I have tested DQ, Sonic, RockCity,Yesterday's, but I found the best burger is at Bridgeport Country Club Lonny and Rita cook a grr8 burger and the good news is you don't have to be a member to eat there or call in for carryout 683-9438.

With this wet weather our 5 babies ie:doggie cant stay outside and when they do go out they come in smelling like dogs

I went to my doctor and changed my diabetic medicine because of the cost. I have a good job and great pay and I don't see how people can pay for med's that are on fixed income or don't have a good job.

Appears they have a little leak in the gulf of Mexico, Obama said it was our fault also along with the companies that drilled the well. I wander if he intends on sending money to help clean up?

LT should be removed from the football hall of fame that my hot sports opinion

Az has been in the news lately they wrote a bill appox 10-15 pages long and the prezident commented that you may be arrested at a braums buying Ice cream, later he said he has not read it. The only way anyone gets arrested at Braums is if they try to purchase the ice cream with a gun

Hey is anyone home?

Wow its been awhile since I last blogged. I don't think anyone ever missed me lol. I have a excuse for not blogging I have been golfin alot. No I haven't improved still a boogie golfer, but I do see signs of encouragement. I been Facebooking alot too much I think. Facebook has turned into a
place where people can be down right mean and hateful. So maybe I will blog more and fb less.
