Timmah!

I posted about this a couple few months ago. Got sick in late February. Really knocked me on my ass for the first 10 days. Took about 5 - 6 weeks to get back to feeling normal. Coughed up phlegm for the first 3 weeks. It started out thick & dark green, like a sinus infection snot; but in my lungs... deep in both lungs. The last week of the first 3, the phlegm became thinner & more jelly-like. Instead of laboring to cough up the phlegm for 30 minutes in the first week-10 days, the last week was only a sporadic, brief, much easier proposition to clear my airways in the morning. I took Promethazine, Guafenesin, & used a Proventil Albuterol inhaler to help clear-up. I've before had a secondary respiratory infection over the years when I caught the seasonal flu. But nothing that caused double pneumonia & settled in so deeply & for so long. Wasn't bacterial, because I was 6 days into a 10 day course of antibiotics. So 3 weeks of phlegm, & 3 weeks to not feel weak & back to normal. As an aside, 95 out 100 customers ask me to hand them their order rather than set it down when I ask them which they prefer.

The Laker Drive-in. Old joint in Stephensburg. Right next to it is an impressive Black Walnut. From the girth of the trunk, it's at least 150 years old:

The State Theater in downtown Elizabethtown ~11:30 tonight:

Grubhub, D00rdash, Postmates. A lot of country roads out here, with an attendant amount of people who are willing to pay ~$20-$25 for somebody to drive their meal to them. Sweet gig to me, getting paid to drive these beautiful country roads on a sunny Kentucky summer day.

Was a quiet ending to a day. The town- Vine Grove- is well-familiar to me as it's where friends live(d), one of the places I went & go fishing, hiked, camped, carnally recreated, worked tobacco, baled hay, hunted & many other things. It, & the surrounding countryside with manifold more small towns very much like it in demeanor & vibe are a part of me & I hold dear. Since I drive these streets 12 hours a day 5-7 days a week, it occurred to me make a post chronicling the area I've grown up along with other thing of interest I happen upon; for my benefit &, perhaps, the mild amusement of others. I traveled through no less than ~15 different towns today alone; took some pictures & video of things that gained my attention for whatever reason & this is one of the places where they'll reside. They turned out nicely for a camera phone & caught the mood I feel there on a sleepy summer night. The echoes of times past resonate with me in the area & prompted me to stop & take those pictures.

A thread where I can memorialize random stuff seems great: Small-town Americana @ 12:25 in the a.m.:

Here's some pics with better focus: One is of a flower that's been broken open for edification.

Yes, fu for not even posting in your own gottdamn cooking thread.

Welcome, buddy!

... ok; who apologized 1st?

I'ma go out on a limb & say you weren't in contention for 1st place in any local spelling bees, back in the day. Welcome Kenmen!

The glands which contain the resin are called trichomes; a properly-focused macro would reveal little mushroom-shaped glands called capitate stalked trichomes. These would range from clear to amber colored. A 50/50 mix of clear & amber is a good rule of thumb for most any harvest.

Don't know. It's a mostly-Sativa hybrid. It's really clean, with a little body settling in after about an hour. Wonderful rich, sweet flavor, with mild end notes of what I call cologne.

Awesome; congrats!..... Jerry! Jerry!... Jerry!

I don't know about you, but this life is a limited-time offer, & I'm not wasting one minute of it concerned in any way about what someone said to me the other day... or the other year.

This means: You will have time to perfect your moniker's technique. Do share with us what retirement's like & any reasonably cool stuff you now have time to do.

be well, man

Saying 'Computer' when switching from cable tv to the computer is giving me Star Trek: TNG moments. Also: The cat's trippin' watching me play games on this screen.

It's a matter of patience; you lose it, you lose your $ real-quick, too.

House only supposed to have ~0.5% edge, 2% if one's stoopid.

Perhaps an aperitif, of sorts?
