Old Bag Says Drinking Scotch Is The Secret To Living To 110
ToledoNewsNow.com: News, Weather
TIFFIN, OH - A Tiffin woman who turns 110 years old on Friday has a unique secret to aging well – scotch. Audrey Lott says scotch is her favorite drink, even telling a reporter "You don't like scotch? You don't know what's good." A special birthday party was held for Lott at the St. Francis home in Tiffin where she lives on Tuesday. Lott says her favorite memory over the past 110 years was visiting the Washington Monument.
Audrey Lott you old sailor! If I had to live a solid 40 years past the point in which I wanted to drop dead, you're damn right I'd be drinking the best of the best. Gradually losing all your senses and shitting yourself never felt so good when downing some of that sweet Hennigan's. But there's no way in hell she's turning 110. Old broad doesn't look a day over 75. Black definitely don't crack.
She lived a century and a decade and her favorite memory ended up being a visit to the Washington Monument? Really flew by the seat of your pants during that life, babe. If that ends up being the case at the end of my days I would want to go back in time and kill myself before I was even born.

Stanley Marsh 3 Dies
AMARILLO -- Amarillo millionaire Stanley Marsh 3 has passed away.
A family attorney says the eccentric millionaire died this afternoon of natural causes in hospice care
Marsh 3 will forever be tied to Amarillo because of the attention he brought to the city and the panhandle.
Unfortunately, not all of that attention was positive.
Most people know of Stanley Marsh 3 because of his quirkiness. A perfect example of that is his name. Choosing to be called Marsh 3 instead of the usual Marsh III.
Marsh 3 suffered a series of strokes a little more than 2-years ago.
He built his legacy in Amarillo around his unusual art projects. Most notably, the Cadillac Ranch.
He is also responsible for the many artistic street signs scattered throughout the city.
Do not forget the floating mesa west of town and the pasture-sized pool table that was truly only visible by airplane.
Along with his eccentricity, Marsh 3 has had some legal troubles as well.
He died under indictment on 14-charges including sexual assault of a child, sexual performance by a child and indecency with a child.
Nearly two dozen young men who claimed they were given money and drugs to perform sexually for him while they were underage also sued Marsh 3.
Ten of those lawsuits were settled out of court. But, since then ten more have been filed.
Those suits are pending.
An attorney for one of the plaintiffs says he will file a suggestion of death motion in the case which should make Marsh 3's estate liable for any judgment that may come.
Funeral arrangements have not yet been announced.
Stanley Marsh Three died today at the age of 76.
UPDATE: 10:15 P.M.The criminal charges against Marsh 3 will eventually be dismissed.
Marsh 3's Criminal attorney released this statement Tuesday night about the death of his client.
"The world has lost Stanleys grand imagination, philanthropic generosity and prankster personality. It is unfortunate Stanley died before he had the opportunity to clear his good name. The criminal accusations made by those seeking to become millionaires will now forever remain mere allegations - - untested and unproven in a criminal courtroom." Said Attorney Paul Nugent.

Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky was sentenced in October 2012 to 30-60 years in jail for 45 counts of sexually abusing 10 young boys. The Oprah Winfrey Network announced today that, Sandusky's adopted son, Matthew, elaborated on his own experiences of abuse in an interview that will air July 17.
From OWN:
In his first television interview since Jerry's 2012 conviction on 45 counts of child sexual abuse, Matthew reveals never-before-heard details of the sexual abuse he experienced as a child at the hands of his adopted father, and why he is choosing to speak out now. During the trial, Matthew gave a statement to local police that Jerry started sexually abusing him around the age of 10-years-old, though he was not one of the ten victims Jerry was convicted of abusing in the criminal trial. After the trial, Penn State University and a third party law firm found enough merit and credibility to award a financial settlement to 26 of Jerry's victims, including Matthew. He shares a deeply personal account of the grooming, methodical control and manipulation he faced as a child and responds to the accusations his adoptive mother, Dottie Sandusky, made on national television accusing him of lying and stealing from the family.
Lawyers for Jerry Sandusky planned to have his client take the stand during his trial, in order to say that his accusers were lying. However, the threat of Matthew then offering public testimony of his own abuse convinced the lawyers not to let Jerry testify.
Matthew is one of six children Jerry and Dottie adopted.

What to do with a leaky 5 gallon
I suppose when you get a 5 gallon metaframe tank for $4 I shouldn't be surprised that it has a few issues. I got the rust it used to have removed, sealed (or at least rust-o-leum-ed), and in doing so managed to crack one of the long panels of glass right near the bottom. I already knew the slate bottom couldn't hold water, but this was icing on the cake.
And then I came here and had an idea. Plants that don't need to be in dirt or water!
I need to find a better piece of wood for it, but I think it looks pretty nice like this. Any other ideas? Know a good place to get tillandsias?
I've never seen a tank with a slate bottom! Thats awesome.
I install slate on the back walls of most all my aquariums as a background.
Now on to airplants/tillandsia
Black jungle supply offers many of them at a reasonable price as well as many other great terrarium plants.
There are also if you search airplants on google many companys that sell them. Haven't tried them.
The tillandsias I had from black jungle came in very healthy but my setups were all too humid for them and they quickly perished.
Yeah, I'd never seen a tank like it before, but it seems they were produced in the 70-80's. The edges of the slate were sealed with some sort of tar stuff, since apparently silicone didn't/doesn't stick to slate. The tar was long gone by time I got it, and I was planning on having to add glass over the slate, but that seems like an awful lot of work now, hahaha.
And thanks for that, I'll be checking that place out.
http://airplants4u.com/ a good place for tillandsias, you can also check out these guys http://www.rainforestflora.com/. as far as the metaframe goes, warm water seals them up pretty well. a few of us "old schoolers" know the trick to them. LOL good luck with it :)
Lol, I thought about doing that, but there was literally no tar left at all. It seems someone before me went and removed it (and probably wondered why it leaked afterwards). Thanks for the links!
no prob. and the warm water trick definitely wouldn't have worked after you cracked it.....lol what not just lay it back down the way it was intended and do a nice terrarium in it? you can still add tillandsias, but also other nice green stuffs as well. or you could do something like the tillandsia tank on this thread:
I really like the black background of the slate and the tillies would really pop against it. I might lay it down on its long side instead though. I just want something simple and brainless to take care of that would offer a nice contract to the other 5 gallon it will be next to. Those setups do give me some ideas though, hmm...
I love vertical tanks. For a terrarium you should be able to just run some silicone over the crack and hide it below the substrate.
Could do a nice pond in the front if you put glass across the front too. Would be great for tillandsia too.. Humid but not too much.
Unless I could find a 8x10xX" clear container, I don't think a pond would really work since I doubt my glass-adding abilities, lol. If I could figure that out, I would probably use it for its original plan as a betta tank. Might be nice with a pond though, hmm. Maybe with moss climbing out of the pond and up some branches, maybe a couple nice little alternatheras or ludwigias...hmm...
I don't know why, I'm just not feeling the terrarium thing. I know it could look good (actually one of my first thoughts for this tank), but it's just not appealing anymore.
The leaky 5 gallon makes me susceptible to suggestion
So I said I wouldn't have this set up like a normal tank (bottom down). Did that. Said I might not have a pond. Did that. Kinda. Now I have a planted tank in my not-yet-planted tank, so I can plant my tank while I plant my tank...d'oh. I ended up having to put the cracked side facing out, due to stains on the other side. Doesn't seem too noticeable.
Set up next to my other 5 gallon:
The "pond"
And what's this?
The pond all planted up
I really wish I had an erio or even a small piece of blyxia japonica, that would go so well with the tillies. I did order some, but no word on when they'll arrive. Also something to point out, I can't remove the bowl now that there's something in it. To get it in and out of the tank (thanks to the annoying metal frame) I have to put it entirely on its side.
Plants are:
Anubias nana
Crypt. Green Gecko and Lucens
Baby struggling sword plant
But anyways, opinions so far?
I like it! Keep it updated!
The dry with the wet, and used the same river rocks in both. The dry one does look a little odd without algae on the rocks...and it's kinda sad that I'm saying that. I may have to try growing moss to try and soften the rocks.
Finally got a couple terrestrial plants in, and I'd love to show you, but photobucket is down for the time being. I added a wee baby hen-and-chicks baby that wasn't doing too hot outside, and a branch of lemon thyme. I really love the thyme, it looks like sagebrush...and kinda like a cascading bonsai to me. Unfortunately, I don't know how well they'll do in the dirt they're in. It's really heavy clay soil that holds in water like mad, and can be very hard and tough... I may need to replant them into something a bit more friendly.
Also, my tillandsias finally shipped! Unfortunately I might lose them all before I get them...very bad coordination of shipping time and a wood carving show I can't miss. Also, it's decided to be winter today. Snow and cold and sun, gotta love Eastern Washington. The plants come in on Saturday, I get back Sunday or Monday...place your bets now.
Alright, photobucket is working now, so time for some new pics!
have a different angle, this is the view from my recliner.
The terrestrial plants are lemon thyme (smells so good!) and a itty bitty hen and chicks baby. Had to replant them for the second time today, and I tried to adjust their dirt to be a bit more root friendly...we'll see how it goes.
Woo, got my tillies in! I don't know if they'll survive, as they spent 2 days in below freezing temps in a mailbox. They didn't look dead or even really beat up (freezing might have helped with that). I soaked them as directed, and they did look a bit better afterwards. If they don't make it, I do have another group on the way. They came with a list of names, but I haven't ID'ed most of the plants. I also added a lil baby aloe vera plant in the back with the thyme. At last though, it looks like a full little terrarium, and only took a couple weeks, yay.
