Looking for water-efficient plants? Start with the UC Davis Arboretum All-Stars, 100 easy-care, low-water plants recommended for use in the Sacramento Valley. In addition, the arboretum's 75 Community Favorites are just that great easy-care plants recommended by area volunteers. Low water use is a priority among these Favorites, too.
Find photo galleries of both Arboretum All-Stars and Community Favorites at The Bee's Home & Garden page, www.sacbee.com/home_garden
Or see the plants in person at the arboretum's gardens. Many of the All-Stars are part of the university landscape, formal collections or featured in demonstration gardens at the arboretum teaching nursery on Garrod Drive. Local nurseries such as Green Acres stock several of these plants.
The arboretum's teaching nursery will hold its public sales on April 6, April 28 and May 18. For directions and more details, click on arboretum.ucdavis.edu
Water Efficient Landscape (WEL) Gardens dot the Sacramento area. The Regional Water Authority (www.rwah2o.org) offers an online guide to a dozen, including the San Juan Water District WEL Garden (9935 Auburn Folsom Road, Granite Bay) and the Sacramento County master gardeners' WEL demonstration gardens at the Fair Oaks Horticulture Center in Fair Oaks Park (8100 Temple Park Drive, Fair Oaks).
This week is the Regional Water Authority's Fix a Leak Week, which can make any landscape more water-efficient. One leaky sprinkler can waste more than 20 gallons a day. The RWA which represents 25 water providers offers links to how-to videos, tips for repairing irrigation systems and fun contests at www.bewatersmart.info.
That website also provides links to rebate information for removing lawn or updating irrigation, and a water- efficient plant database with more than 1,800 suggestions. Go directly to the plants at www.rwa.watersavingplants.com
We asked landscape professionals and horticulturists to pick a few plants they like for water-efficient makeovers. Their suggestions:
Vine Hill manzanita (Artostaphylos densiflora Howard McMinn): An Arboretum All-Star, this California native shrub grows 6 to 10 feet tall and looks beautiful year-round with its wine-red bark and clusters of urn-shaped flowers in the winter "just when we need to see some beauty in our gardens," designer Cheryl Buckwalter said. She also recommended the more compact Sunset manzanita (it stays under 5 feet) for smaller spaces.
Bush anemone (Carpenteria californica Elizabeth):Another native, this handsome shrub grows up to 8 feet tall and thrives in afternoon shade. "Its white flowers brighten the area," Buckwalter said.
California native lilacs (Ceanothus): Several hybrid varieties are available including the bright-blue Ray Hartman and Concha, and pale-pink Marie Simon. Ceanothus is a bestseller, said Green Acres' Andy Emmert, "especially the striking gold and green variegated Diamond Heights."
Grevillea: Featuring a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors, these Australian shrubs have become water-efficient landscape stars. They're also "excellent hummingbird attractors," Emmert said.
Strawberry tree (Arbutus "Marina"): With smooth, mahogany-red bark, this tree looks like a giant manzanita. It can reach 50 feet and boasts loads of white flower clusters followed by little red fruit.
"It's an excellent evergreen tree," Emmert said.
Desert willow (Chilopsis linearis): No relation to true willows, this small, graceful tree (15-20 feet) offers large clusters of sweet-smelling pink to violet flowers in late summer. See examples in Sacramento's Capital Park near the succulent garden.
Pink Dawn chitalpa (Chitalpa x tashkentensis Pink Dawn): This hybrid crossed the desert willow with catalpa, a shade tree, to create a 30-foot flowering tree with loads of orchidlike pink flowers. Because the blooms are sterile, there are no seed pods and less mess.
Texas ranger (Leucophyllum zygophyllum Cimarron): This 3-foot gray-green perennial sprouts loads of purple flowers. Said Buckwalter, "Whenever I've used this in one of my designs, my clients love them!"
Coral bells (Heuchera): With interesting foliage and fairylike flowers, this ground cover loves dry shade. Look for colorful hybrids with purple or silver-laced leaves.
Rosemary (Rosmarinus): A staple of water-efficient gardens, chose either upright or spreading varieties. Bees love the blue flowers.
Sage (Salvia): This large family features more than 700 perennials and shrubs. They offer a wide range of flower colors; some sages are tasty, too.
Yarrow (Achillea): An old favorite is finding many new fans; it's an almost no-care ground cover. New hybrids offer flowers in several pretty pastels.

Three pit bulldogs attacked a man and sent him to the hospital, said Beaumont Animal Services.
The man was riding his bicycle in the 2200 block of Avenue A when two 6-month-old pit bulldogs and one adult pit bulldog bit him on his face and both of his arms.
Matthew Fortenberry with animal services says the dogs will be held for a 10-day quarantine.
During that time, he will review witness statements and determine if the dogs will be classified as "dangerous."
"And if that's the case, then we would declare the animals dangerous which means the owner would have to get a $100,000 rider on their home insurance in order to keep the animals," he said.
If they are deemed "dangerous," he says the owners would also be required to secure the dogs in an enclosed area that extends into the ground, display a sign that indicates they own dangerous dogs and register them with the city.Animal Services: Dogs bite man riding bicycle

Natural Factors - Dr. Murray's Peppermint & Oregano Oil Complex - 60 Softgels
Natural Factors Peppermint & Oregano Oil Complex contains extracts of peppermint, oregano and caraway seed in a specially coated capsule that allows these oils to move through the stomach and be released into the small intestine and colon. These volatile oils are valued for their ability to aid normal intestinal and colon function.
Parts of Peppermint used and where grownPeppermint is a hybrid of water mint and spearmint and was first cultivated near London in 1750. Peppermint is now cultivated widely, particularly in the U.S. and Europe. The two main cultivated forms are the black mint, which has violet-colored leaves and stems and a relatively high oil content, and the white mint, which has pure green leaves and a milder taste. The leaves are used medicinally.
Parts of Oregano used and where grownOregano is an aromatic perennial herb that can grow to about two feet in height. It is native to the Mediterranean region but is cultivated worldwide. In addition to European oregano, there are several types of related species, including Greek/Turkish oregano (Origanum onites) and Mexican oregano (Lippia graveolens, Lippa palmeri). These should not be considered substitutes for true oregano, though they may have similar properties. The leaves as well as the volatile oil of these various species are used medicinally, but must be carefully distinguished as they are quite different.
Natural Factors priority is enhancing people's health.
Factor Farms:A quality herbal product starts with the highest quality fresh organic plant material. The efficacy of herbal products has always been affected by growing conditions, harvesting, processing and storage. At Factor Farms in beautiful Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada our quality can be guaranteed as we control the entire process from seedling to finished product.
To grow herbs organically no chemical fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides or pesticides are allowed. We use only natural substances that have been approved by the organic industry. You can be assured that the fresh herb extracts contain no traces of unwanted chemical. Even the seed and plant sources are organic.
To be organically certified, certification inspectors work closely with growers to ensure that the organic standards are adhered to. We must keep detailed records of what we use on our farm. Even after harvest, processing is regulated so that no harmful chemicals are used to manufacture the fresh herb extracts. Local cultivation of medicinal herbs at Factors Farms ensures that the herbs are picked, processed, and extracted at just the right time when the active ingredients are at their peak.
Natural Factor knows that the natural habitats of many herbs are shrinking and that over-harvesting from the wild can endanger native medicinal plant populations. So organic cultivation of herbs is preferred over "wild crafting".

The U.S. senators and health officials are ready for a head on collision with a baseball tradition that's older than the World Series, rather older than the dirt itself; chewing tobacco.
The Series is scheduled to begin this Wednesday between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Texas Rangers. The senators and health officials want the Players Union and the League to agree banning on chewing tobacco at games and on camera.
According to reports, the senators and health officials handed in their pleas separately on Tuesday. "When players use smokeless tobacco, they endanger not only their own health, but also the health of millions of children who follow their example," the senators wrote in the letter to the union head Michael Weiner.
Sources have confirmed that the letter was signed by Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate and other fellow Democrats such as Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey. It was also signed by Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Senate Health Committee Chairman Tom Harkin of Iowa.
The senators made their case by saying that millions of people will tune in to watch the World Series, which includes children. Therefore, chewing tobacco in front of them would be an irresponsible and bad act. They wrote, "Unfortunately, as these young fans root for their favorite team and players, they also will watch their on-field heroes use smokeless tobacco products."
"It's going to be kind of hard to ban that," Texas Rangers pitcher Matt Harrison said. "They probably would have a big fight on their hands for that. ... They can hide it a little bit better, I guess -- not be doing it in the dugout and showing it where kids can watch and stuff. But I think it's kind of like your own freedom. If that's what you want to do, then you do it."
Baseball's present collective bargaining agreement is set to expire in December this year. The senators, some government officials and public health groups want the Players Union and League to agree upon a tobacco ban in the next contract. The coalition also includes; the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Cancer Society and the American Medical Association. The movement has picked a lot of pace in the past year.
"Such an agreement would protect the health of players and be a great gift to your young fans," the senators wrote. To gain more support and spread awareness, Durbin also sent copies of the letter to the Player Representatives for his home state teams, the Chicago White Sox and the Chicago Cubs. He also sent the letter to representatives from the Cardinals.
In the senate speech on Tuesday, Durbin said, "Let's not let the health and safety of young baseball fans across America be a bargaining chip between the major league players and the owners. Let's win one for the kids across America."

"Don't you gaslight me," meaning "Don't try to drive me crazy," became a popular expression in 1944 based on the noir thriller "Gaslight."
George Cukor's suspenseful melodrama is a remake of the British film, released in the U.S. as Angel Street (and aka Murder in Thornton Square), starring Anton Walbrook and Dianna Wynyard. When MGM decided to remake the film, it bought the rights to Thorold Dickinson's version and withdrew the movie from circulation, causing a lot of resentment in the British industry.
Gaslight is based on Patrick Hamilton's play, which premiered in London in l938, then ran on Broadway for two years. Nominated for eight Oscars, it's one of Cukor' best pictures and one of MGM's most accomplished noir melodramas of the 1940s. Cukor's film, which is half an hour longer than the British film, is smoother, richer in psychological detail, and more artfully executed. The superbly crafted script, co-written by John Van Druten and Walter Reisch, moved the action effectively out of the stage's confines; the picture doesn't betray its theatrical origins.
After their honeymoon, Anton (Charles Boyer) sets out to drive his young cherubic wife (Ingrid Bergman) insane so that he can conveniently put her in an asylum and steal the precious jewels hidden in their house, where he had murdered her aunt Alice, a rich, renowned soprano. The title derives from the gas jet in Paula's bedroom, which ominously dims whenever her husband turns on the gas lamp in the attic in his obsessive search through Alice's possessions.
The flickering flames increase Paula's fear that her rational faculties are beginning to weaver. Cukor follows Hitchcock in tipping off the audience early on the husband's greed and duplicity. By giving this vital information away, before the heroine herself finds out, tension builds steadily. In the touching climax, Paula finds out that her husband had never loved her, that he had been enslaved to his obsessive addiction to diamonds. There's an ironic note to Paula's revenge–Anton discovers the gems (embroidered on Alice's gown) just before going to prison.
The key symbol of the fluttering gaslight is established during the credits sequence, while Alice's voice is heard on the soundtrack. The spirit of the dead soprano haunts the house where she was strangled. Cedric Gibbons won an Oscar for supervising the art direction. The set decoration is by Paul Huldchinsky, a German refugee who borrows elements from German expressionist style in making the house cluttered and stifling, imbued a claustrophobic jail-like atmosphere. The movie received an Oscar for interior decoration (as it was then called).
Ingrid Berman, who won the first of her three Oscars for this film, is terrific as the fragile bride terrorized by her husband's dirty tricks. The Oscar cemented Bergman's reputation as Hollywood's most popular actress, having made Casablanca and For Whom the Bell Tolls the year before. Hitchcock later cast Bergman in Spellbound" and Notorious.
Angela Lansbury was unknown when Cukor cast her as Nancy, the conniving maid who tries to lure Anton away from his wife. Lansbury tested for the role, and Cukor was impressed with her poise, the way she carried herself, and her Cockney accent. Nonetheless, the director decided she was too young for the role, which sent Lansbury back to Bullocks and working as a cosmetics girl. A week later, after looking at Lansbury's screen test again, Cukor asked for a second audition, which turned out to be even better than the first. Cukor then had her role expanded.
Rising to 5'8″, Lansbury was the same height as Bergman. To make her more menacing, Cukor asked Lansbury to wear platform shoes. Lansbury's stunning debut in Gaslight garnered her with her first, supporting, Oscar nomination.
Cukor was also persuasive in getting Charles Boyer to play first outright villainous role; before that, Boyer mostly played romantic roles opposite Garbo (Conquest), Hedy Lamarr (Algiers), Irene Dunne (Love Affair).
A thriller soaked in paranoia, Gaslight is a period films noir that, like Hitchcock's The Lodger and Hangover Square, is set in the Edwardian age. It's interesting to speculate about the prominence of a film cycle in the 1940s that can be described as "Don't Trust Your Husband." It began with three Hitchcock films: Rebecca (l940), Suspicion (l941), and Shadow of a Doubt (l943), and continued with Gaslight and Jane Eyre (both in l944), Dragonswyck l945), Notorious and The Spiral Staircase (both l946), The Two Mrs. Carroll (l947), and Sorry, Wrong Number and Sleep My Love (both l948).
All of these films use the noir visual vocabulary and share the same premise and narrative structure: The life of a rich, sheltered woman is threatened by an older, deranged man, often her husband. In all of them, the house, usually a symbol of sheltered security in Hollywood movies, becomes a trap of terror.

"I think that the next states are going to prove his foreign policy is not what this country wants," Grassley said. "I don't think the United States can lead for world peace as we have for the last 50 years if we're not actively engaged and trying to prevent war as opposed to fighting wars." But there was a time when Grassley's own views were more in line with Paul's and decidedly out of step with his Republican Party.
In 1991, Grassley was one of only two Republicans in the Senate and five in the entire Congress to vote against authorizing the use of military force in the Persian Gulf.
Grassley's stance wouldn't satasify Dr. Paul as he chose to defer to sanctions and diplomacy as the way to dislodge Saddam's troops from Kuwait, but he did declare while he "could never be accused of being a Cold War pacifist...I'm not ready to be a New World [Order] Warrior, either."
But he did cite constitutional qualms with the process in terms that might elicit approval from Ron Paul, lamenting that Congress was "skirting the issue" of war powers. "Perhaps this fulfills our constitutional duty, but I suspect it's a less-than-courageous way of" addressing it, voting to "authorize the use of force" instead declaring war formally.
Grassley came to his decision in discussions with Iowans, who voiced skepticism of this conflict. He found himself sharing their hesitance in getting involved in a foreign war, and voted accordingly.
Iowa has a history of non-interventionist, and even isolationist, sentiment. It was in Des Moines in 1941 that "Lucky" Lindbergh delivered his notorious Anglophobic, anti-Semitic speech before a rabid America First audience, casting aspersions on supposedly nefarious forces he insisted were luring the U.S. into the "European war" (aka World War II). And Grassley was first elected to Congress to fill the seat long-held by Taft Republican mainstay H.R. Gross, who even voted "present" on the Gulf of Tonkin resolution.
If Grassley seems to have grown more comfortable with an activist foreign policy, Tim Carney reports from Iowa that many average Hawkeyes - and even some Rick Santorum supporters - continue to hold a less than hawkish worldview. This sentiment, even if it's a minority view in 2011, still seems to be shared by Iowans of diverse demographics and doesn't fall neatly along partisan lines. We saw it eight years ago on the Democratic side with the initial excitement Howard Dean stirred up railing against the Iraq War and it's coming to the fore in a more conservative tint amongst Ron Paul's dedicated base again this year.

The city of Charlottesville suggests you avoid High Street and Court Square Monday as hundreds of potential jurors called for the George Huguely murder trial descend on downtown.
The circuit court split about 300 jurors into two groups to stagger their arrival times and alleviate parking problems.
Jurors will fill out questionnaires with at least 40 questions from Huguely's defense and the commonwealth.
Huguely is accused of killing fellow UVA lacrosse player Yeardley Love in May of 2010. The two week trial starts February 6.

Not only will Carrie Underwood be competing for the fan-voted Milestone Award at Sunday's Billboard Music Awards, she'll also be debuting her new duet with Miranda Lambert-- who isn't too proud to admit she's more than a little anxious about singing "Something Bad" onstage for the very first time.
"I'm gonna be really nervous to sing with Carrie," she confesses. "It will be the first time we sing it live together. That's the fun part, though. That's kind of why you want to do it in the first place is to sing it live. I mean, it's fun to sing it in the studio and all that stuff with her, but definitely singing with someone as powerful as she is pushes you as a vocalist."
Miranda says she feels even more pressure, because the sassy song affords the two a rare opportunity.
"I'm nervous, but I'm excited, and I'm excited for people to see two female country artists up there onstage together. That doesn't happen that often, or not often enough, in my opinion. So, we're just gonna go rock it," she laughs.
"Something Bad" is one of the tunes on Miranda's new CD, Platinum , out June 3. You can catch the song's first live performance Sunday on the 2014 Billboard Music Awards, starting at 8 p.m. Eastern time on ABC.

OKAY LAST SET OF THIS DUMB WIG I PROMISE. I'm proud of the back, really, even though the whole thing looks kind of dumb on a wig head - The curls are anchored in with wire and the weight of them pulls at the wig mesh when they're not pressed firmly against my actual head, which makes the wig bow out like that when it's not being worn.
Also sorry for not putting contacts in :( I have a headache.
Omg they're perfect!!

Music to Your Ears
L Words
The "L" stands for love. And lesbians. And lyrics from hip-hop duo God-des and She—who, come to think of it, once appeared on HBO's "The L Word," cable's most prominent source of literate, lusty lesbians.
Birch Miller
Murder by Death
Bigger is better
Murder by Death knows only one size.
"I tend to be more interested in big things," explains singer-songwriter Adam Turla. "I feel like so many people write songs about simple stuff. One of the reasons why I do write such big, theatrical songs is that there's not as many people doing it."
Epic struggles between good and evil fill the lyric sheets, and the meaty Americana that saddles up beside it gallops through sonic peaks and valleys. It could be called alt.country-noir, or cowpoke indie rock, but either way, the scent that wafts past your nostrils is robust.
Flyer on the Wall
Make New Friends, but Keep the Old
Bat Wings for Lab Rats and 1, 2, 3 Astronaut! are silver, Agency E is gold. Friday, Feb. 13, at The Agency (111 Fourth Street SW, all-ages). $5 cover, 9 p.m. (LM)

Health Care
Floridians everywhere have expressed their concern about health care costs spiraling out-of-control. The President's new health care law will drive costs up, bankrupt the country and create bureaucratic red tape when it comes to everyday health care decisions. Lowering health care costs is essential to growing our economy and creating jobs in our country.
We should propose common sense, free-market ideas to make health care more accessible and affordable. Senator Rubio will focus on three goals: repealing and replacing Obamacare; allowing individuals to control their own health care choices; and returning control of health policy to the states. In January 2011, Senator Rubio signed on as an original co-sponsor—his first bill as a co-sponsor—of legislation introduced by U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) to fully repeal the health care bill that President Obama signed into law on March 23, 2010. The legislation is identical to the repeal bill that passed the U.S. House of Representatives. Senator Rubio is one of 34 Republicans co-sponsoring the bill.
To start lowering health care costs and begin to reclaim our country, Senator Rubio believes we need to take simple, common sense actions, including allowing individuals to purchase health insurance across state lines, encouraging small businesses to band together to form Association Health Plans, giving individuals the same tax breaks given to businesses, incentivizing the use of electronic medical records; giving people tools to make cost-conscious decisions, increasing the number of community health centers, incentivizing state medical malpractice reform, enhancing Health Savings Accounts, pursuing medical malpractice reform and adopting a sensible program to cover those with pre-existing conditions.

Before you bite into an apple, do you wash it? Recently, Best Food Facts received a question from a reader asking, "What is the safest way to clean vegetables and fruit? Is hot water and a scrubbing brush all that I need to use?"
To answer the question, we reached out to Julie Albrecht, PhD, RD, a Professor and Extension Food Specialist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Julie Albrecht, PhD, RD
Julie Albrecht, PhD, RD: "When handling produce, use cold or luke warm water while washing. If the veggie is cold and you use hot water, there is a temperature differential that is set up and water may move into the produce carrying microorganisms with the water. The temperature of the water should be similar to the temperature of the veggie. A scrub brush is good for potatoes but not broccoli."
Dr. Albrecht also pointed us to this resource from FightBac.org for more information: click here.

Abstract: This disbound album contains studio and field photographs of Apache Indians taken by photographer A. Frank Randall 1883-1888, during the U.S. campaign to capture Apache renegades during the Apache Wars. The photographs have descriptive captions written by Randall, most identifying their subjects. Though presumably the photographs are all by Randall, research has shown some images may be the work of Ben Wittick. Notable portraits include those of A. Frank Randall, Geronimo, Naiche, and Nelson A. Miles. There are also some scenes of Indian agencies and camps in Arizona. The last part of the album ends with views in Southern California, including Rancho Camulos, scenes of Santa Barbara, missions, and San Diego. There are also views of Guaymas, Mexico.

Given by Mrs. Lyman Thompson in December 1957.
Biography/Administrative History
A. Frank Randall was born March 2, 1854 in Massachusetts. Little is known about his early years, but in 1883, he accompanied General George Crook's expedition as a newspaper correspondent and photographer in the campaign to capture Apache Indians in Mexico. For the next four years, Randall traveled around Arizona and New Mexico photographing various Apache tribes, including the Chiricahua, Warm Springs, Mescalero, and Jicarilla Apaches. In 1887, Randall moved to California and spent his final years in Alameda County, where he died of a heart attack on March 4, 1916.
Scope and Content of Collection
The first page is a dedication written by Randall, saying: "This album is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Captain Emmet Crawford who offered his life as a sarafice [sic] to the Apache race, a brave and noble man, the idol of his friends. Murdered by Mexicans in Mexico January 11th 1886. A. Franklin Randall, artist." A newspaper cutout of Captain Crawford's portrait has been pasted on the dedication page. On the reverse side of the page, Randall wrote: "Presented to Claire W. Murphy. Christmas 1888. The Author [Randall]." Part of this presentation note includes a phrase written in Greek. The majority of Randall's photographs are portraits of men, women, and children from various Apache subtribes in Arizona and New Mexico. Among these photographs are images of a fox tamer; a fiddler; a flutist; a well-dressed, possibly high-ranking Apache man; medicine men; young girls; mothers and their infant children; and Apache chiefs. Portraits of United States Army officers and scouts include Nelson A. Miles, Leonard Wood, Wilber E. Wilder, Roger Ames, Henry W. Lawton, William A. Thompson, Amos S. Kimball, John A. Dapray, Thomas J. Clay, Frank P. Bennett, Buffalo Jack, a female Indian scout, and Apache scouts. Randall also included photographs of Rancho Camulos, many of which show people dramatizing scenes from Helen Hunt Jackson's novel "Ramona." Antonio Franco Coronel appears in some scenes. Other images include views of Missions Santa Barbara and San Juan Capistrano, what may be Vasquez Creek and Tujunga Canyon near Los Angeles, and street scenes of Guaymas, Mexico.

Bill Kirchen-Commander Cody's Original Guitarist is coming to Portland
by Iris Harrison
posted May 20 2010 2:37PM
My friend Joey Scruggs and I recently connected again. One of the many benefits of Facebook. Reconnecting with old friends. Not that either Joey or myself are in any remote way
...but we did meet a number of years ago. Anyway, Joey is always involved in local music, and he told me about a gig that I wanted to pass along. Here's the info:
BILL KIRCHEN, Commander Cody's original guitarist is coming to Duff's Garage May 28th to do a CD release Party. The guy is considered one of the finest guitarists in the world.
If you need to know more, here's a link to his website:
One of my favorite driving songs of all time is "Hot Rod Lincoln." Not only does it have kick ass guitar that is throwing out great licks, but the guitar in the song is like a vocal...it is so
Click here to listen to this incredible version of Hot Rod Lincoln by Bill Kirchen.
The man not only does an incredible version of the song, but also mimics all these different guitar styles in the song and works them into the story of the Hot Rod Lincoln. I'm talking about everyone from Chuck Berry to Jimi Hendrix and Deep Purple. Un-freaking-real!!! The lyrics of the song are so great too. This is the part that always makes my pedal start heading to the floor-
Pulling out of San Pedro late one night With the moon and the stars just shining bright We was headed up grapevine Hill Passing cars like they was standing still
Now, for those of you who have never driven the famous, or infamous Grapevine, it probably doesn't mean as much. But for those of us, and especially truck drivers I'm sure, who have, it's pure poetry. And then there's the line that could have described my teen driving years, and certainly my son's:
Wound it up to 110 My speedometer said I hit top end My foot was glued like lead to the floor And that's all there is, and there ain't no more
See Bill Kirchen play live!
Friday night, May 28th, at
Duff's Garage
Okay, now slow down.
Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin'
if you don't stop drivin' that HOT...ROD...LINCOLN!

Can you believe there have already been two Abraham Lincoln movies out this year? When was the last time Abe made an appearance on the big screen?
I'm not going to look it up or anything, but I think it was Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, right? Doesn't he come out at the end and say something like "Party on dudes!" I actually don't remember. That movie came out when I was like three years old. I remember my parents rented it for me one time when I was maybe seven, but what's the point of showing any movie to a seven-year-old? They're not going to remember it, one. And two, do you think a little kid has the attention span necessary to comprehend exactly what's going on? I still have no idea what that movie was about.

DIVIDE, Colo. (WHAS11) -- The race for mayor of Divide, Colo. is turning into a real zoo, so to speak.
There are 11 mayoral candidates but not a single one is human.
The current mayor, a three-legged cat name Walter, must give up his reign because his term is up.
Another cat and a few dogs are vying to the city's top spot, as well as a wolf, a donkey and a hedgehog.
Sounds like a joke, but it's not. The small town doesn't really have a mayor, the election serves as a fundraiser for a no-kill shelter with each vote costing $1.
"The last election we made about $8800 and right now we're right at $9000," Nancy Adams, fundraising coordinator said.

Strapless Convertible Microfiber Bodysuit Style 9541 5 5
Torso for a 2-yr old This product is awful. The torso has so little material in length and the gusset is so small that I wonder if Davd's patterned it after a child's body. I'm only 5 feet 3" tall and the TOPS of the cups only came to UNDER my breasts. To it's credit, however, it does compress the body nicely. July 4, 2013
Perfect Fit at Cup Other reviewers said the cups did not fit well, but I am 42D and the garment fit me perfectly. My two small complaints are that 1) it does not come in black, and 2) it should come with clear straps. After reading another's review, I went online to order clear straps, which fit perfectly. The undergarment is supposed to have a tummy support panel for extra smoothing, but it did nothing for me. Overall, it fit me perfectly, and I felt comfortable across the top and mid-section. Hook and Eye "gusset" was not really a problem, but I will see once I have to unfasten and fasten with my gown on, on the BIG day! August 24, 2011
cup size wwaaaayyy too big! didnt really slim you in much at all. not worth the money spent. July 28, 2011
not true to size I agree with the other review, this is a nice product and well put together, but sizing is all wrong. I wear a 38C so ordered a 44C and the cups barley covered my breasts. The underwires were like 4 inches below my breasts. So I will be sending this one back, but don't know where to get another one that fits before Friday July 1st as my wedding is on July 2nd. Any help is appreciated. June 23, 2011
