Annette Funicello... How do you like her?

Robecology comments on Sep 14, 2019:

Annette would never have posed for this...and I had my first crush on her...and know that's not her body. She was nearly a double A....and unless she got boob jobs and took a chance with a provocative photographer, It's clearly a photo-shopped job.

How humans were created according to the History Channel.

Robecology comments on Sep 14, 2019:

The history channel gave in to the "sensationalists" years ago...and I stopped watching. Could our DNA have originated extra-terrestrially ? Sure. Is there a deep dark, complex story behind it? No. Some flash-frozen ocean from another planet far away rained down on us....complete with flash-frozen organisms....and there it was... DNA to start its' complex evolution in our proto-oceans. NBD.

Robecology comments on Sep 13, 2019:

They're "cute"...and that's why they're taking over habitats of many "less cute" and "shy - but beautiful" native species. They're reproducing rapidly....and they're disease carriers. If you walk over to feed them, be sure to wash your shoes - especially if you have toddlers. Psittacosis, also called "Parrot fever" will cause many pet birds many hours of suffering. If you swim in the same waters they swim in; they're are also known carries of the parasitic worm that causes swimmer's itch. They're considered a "pest" or "invasive" species....they are causing many of our common natives - herons, egrets, and gallinules, to name a few - to nest elsewhere. But they are edible...and they are huntable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psittacosis https://www.abchomeandcommercial.com/blog/muscovy-ducks/

That's a Muscovy duck. Be aware...they're "exotics/accidental imports" that are quickly taking over the habitats of shyer native birds. They are too friendly, and easy to adapt and hand feed....that's what makes them attractive. They are edible.

I keep this on my desktop to enlighten folk...that unless we reduce our population (can you tell I'm a demographer?) we will continue to grow in competition and stress. It's just logical. J.R. Malthus observed, over 200 years ago..."as the quantity (of life per area) increases, the Quality of life decreses. And he said that in 1812. More people = greater competition for resources, jobs, land, space. We're increasing - births minus deaths - at the rate of 158 more per minute. Per minute. 227,000 more per day.

@LiterateHiker; You call them stubborn. I call them desperate. 90% of those who live dangerously close to the natural elements do so because they must stay there. They have no choice. It's their livelihood to "live near/on the water's edge". the other 10% Live there because it's beautiful, isolated, private, primitive, and enjoyable. ...and they're paying insurance rates most of us can't touch to live there...but they look at it as a bet. They're betting that a storm DOES take out their property. That way they can rebuild bigger, stronger, and higher above sea level. They're not bad people; just very wealthy.

Semantics. We all change. As our population increases, (158 more births, than deaths, per minute) our rate of change increases. Alvin Toffler in "Future Shock" said this increased rate of change is the result of population density; The more crowded it is....the more people you meet....the more subject you are to different opinions, styles, tastes, attitudes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_Shock

Rushing in is natural. You meet...and the "chemistry" is there...or it isn't. If it's there...you both want to test further, faster....it's quite biological, really.

Say, politely, softly, but in-the-eyes, full-voice, sincerely; , "if you can't do/not do this/that then we can't continue". Show the courage to draw the line.

Hey everyone.

Robecology comments on Sep 5, 2019:

This is a tough one. I've been through a wife dying young...so it taught me a few lessons in letting go and moving on. Women have left me....and I've left them. Of course it's painful. It's rarely "cut and dry" - there's often not very good reasons for "letting someone go" out of your life; and they have their reasons for letting you go as well. Ken Keyes Jr. has many words of wisdom for this situation. One of his favorites of mine is "Hold on tightly, but let go lightly" Another of his is "make your addictions (must haves) in to preferences (would be nice to have...but you can do without)." Another of his is "go from love, to hate, to indifference as quickly as possible". Erase contacts. Remove them from your phone and address book. They probably have a list of things about you that they detest...so it's wise to look at the relationship as a two way street. Try to learn lessons from each experience...what was it that "drove them crazy" about you? It's only fair to reflect on that...and try to change a bit.

Good morning.

Robecology comments on Sep 5, 2019:

The football athlete takes a lot of chances...he's like a ballet dancer - making incredible footwork moves, going up in the air - with the additional risk of being tackled - while throwing or catching the ball. Many of us know that they're well paid because with that life-style; their life-expectancy is very low. They are literally sacrificing their lives to earn money. To watch the athleticism is, for most of us arm-chair warriors...a kind of empathetic participatory experience.

They mean well, but they're naive.... ...but you are enlightened. So... don't give in. You clearly know decent English - even though it's a second language to you. Be confident. Instead of believing in a mythical god...believe in yourself. You know you're talented. Just convince employers that you can benefit them if they hire you.

As a resident on the East coast of Florida (just north of Port St. Lucie....see map, above) ...this has been one weird journey! I live in a high rise right on the ocean...so we were told to shutter up and find another place to stay. Old Doreen in the penthouse stayed...and even left her windows unshuttered....she's a tough old bird....visions of Captain Dan riding the top of the mast come to mind (from Forrest Gump).... But I digress.... I went to stay with my son and his wife and 3 year old - 60 miles south and a dozen or so miles inland in Jupiter...but they had just moved in to a new home...complete with no furniture (or anything) delivered...so we had to go buy inflatable mattresses and utensils, and food. Then we discovered (via an emergency call to a plumber) that the previous owners had botched the drain repairs....so both sinks were clogged, and the bathtub was backing up....and that was just the beginning of the mess. Fortunately the storm turned northward...and as the meme above artfully expresses...is taking forever to move out of our area. It doesn't mean much for us...30 MPH winds, and occasional downpours....and you can probably tell I've been without internet for a few days...(no modem)....so we're hoping that one day this storm will move out of here.... https://media.tenor.com/images/2b050fc34dc10ac9872402fce090bdba/tenor.gif

Great article. The Scandinavians are decades ahead of the U.S.; no gas powered vehicles will be allowed in major cities by 2030. They are thinking in the future. I'm sharing this with my Tesla readers....

NASA has been studying the possibility of life occurring on other planets...including the distinct possibility that DNA might have formed on other planets in other solar systems and came to us in early earth formation. It's called Astrobiology; https://astrobiology.nasa.gov/about/ Do you realize that our oceans, which to the best scientific research was filled by huge amounts of freeze-dried oceans -perhaps comets and asteroids from other worlds....that came to us complete with many life forms. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/how-did-water-come-to-earth-72037248/

Good morning everyone! I had difficulty sleeping last night - I'm pretty sure I didn't sleep, ...

I never was a two-pillow sleeper until well in to my 60's...now I can't do without that pillow between my legs. That, and a cool setting on the A.C. (72º) and i'm good. I do keep a bottle of Melatonin handy for those sleepless nights...If I've done one - I skip a night intentionally to avoid making a habit of it... But Melatonin is not only natural...there's inconclusive (pseudo-scientific) research that it's life-extending. It's available everywhere...and pretty cheap. https://www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2008/8/beyond-sleep-new-medical-applications-for-melatonin/page-01

Good morning all.

Can we assume you're talking about The International Monetary Fund (IMF)?

I've seen them in the wild; I don't recall seeing such a unique pattern. Maybe a southern Sub-species?

I had this weird exchange recently with a member.

Robecology comments on Aug 27, 2019:

I think he wrote a clever retort to your "BTW..." ...but you're being cautious and demanding more than the usual idle conversation.....so I get where you're coming from. The fact that he's "not too far away" might be reason enough for me to at least want to get to know them better...perhaps offer meeting for coffee/drinks....but we all have our preferences....

I think I was dyslexic for a second there.

Robecology comments on Aug 27, 2019:

LOL! thanks!

I wonder where the blue one is from...all are beautiful.

I think several images are simple photo-shop color changes. The only color variety of Cardinal I've ever known is this one; https://nationalzoo.si.edu/scbi/migratorybirds/featured_photo/bird.cfm?pix=Red-crested_Cardinal

Yeah I am a hopeless romantic
