"We have forgotten..."


 roundtail ground squirrel (Xeropsermophilus tereticaudus  is fond of vegitables

the rains must have driven the white-tailed antelope squirrels away   this species is the only one i have seen...i dont suppose the foxes have eaten all of them... a helicopter hovered over my truck in the middle of the night last night....the coyotes barked from 20 or 30 yards away before this happened...i barked back and they moved on...i dont suppose they turned me in to the border patrol...the desert temps have been pretty moderate the last few days...upper 70s in the day...lower 80s today...well the big news is that NAY! to YE...he has enough dough to retire from the bogus employment of FASHION DESIGN...what  a crock!...watched a good Hitchcock movie this week "Strangers on a Train" one of my favorites.(1951) Black and white...101 minutes....you will never get on a merry go round again!   re-watched a history documentary which is very good...a couple of hours long about the Songhi empire in africa around 1200 to 1300 CE...the richest man in the world was there and he was Mansa Musa...he went to Mecca and spent so much money in gold that he upset their economies for 10 years...he had a lot of gold...so i was listening about the drone attacks in Ukraine and thought about the fellow i met at a park in the desert who was flying this electric turbo jet remote control aircraft which was super fast...over a hundred miles per hour...i imagine it could disable a drone and it cost a couple hundred bucks...better than the million bucks a pop the russians pay for a missile...i hate to be an arms peddler...i think one person needs to be removed and that will handle the problem...got to go before they close the books store...
