<\/p>\nYesterday, I finished loading meds to shift my replacement times to the opposite weekends and free up this one. Since I can’t seem to get my car radio working and don’t have time to get it repaired or replaced, I started hunting up my mp3 players to find one that works. The first one i found, though it said it was working (with a new battery,) I couldn’t get any sound out of, either with earphones nor with the portable speaker, which I would prefer to use. The second one has its battery built in but it was competely discharged, so I started charging it up, and, when partiallly charged, it started to play. I tried it with the speaker and the speaker works with it. However, I did not figure out how to add additional music to it, nor how to turn it off. So I started looking for an owner’s manual on line. I also completed my draft of the Furies (if any day of the blog suffers from this visit, it won’t be Sunday, it’ll be Monday.)<\/p>\n

\nQuote – Manger said police were able to see a propane gas container on the truck. But he said officials have not yet been able to search his vehicle, adding they still need to \u201crender it safe.\u201d \u201cIt will take hours to assess the scene,\u201d he said.

\nQuote – \u201cThere was nothing that I or anyone else saw that indicated a collapse of this army and this government in 11 days,\u201d said Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He said the U.S. anticipated \u201cmultiple scenarios.\u201d

There’s a line from “Dr. Atomic”: “With respect, sir, anyone could have founf Los Alamos just by following the trail of beer cans from Santa Fe.” Beer cans (and the like) sould never be discounted.<\/p>\n
\nQuote – I have a friend in the military who trains military dogs, Laura. And they only feed a military dog at night. Because a hungry dog is an obedient dog. Well, if we\u2019re not causing people to be hungry to work then we\u2019re providing them with all the meals they need sitting at home. I\u2019m completely with you Laura. These benefits make absolutely no sense to us.
