I got some costume jewelry for sale at auction now. No bids so far. I figured out how to take a pic of the jewelry with my cell phone and send the pic to my email. Then I got a librarian to copy the pic from my email and post it on the auction. Not the greatest quality picture, but maybe somebody out there will throw down a few bux for it. If they search on the auction for costume jewelry estate auction flea market picks, maybe they can view my jewelry...and maybe even make it all their own...at a dirt cheap price!

I met some friends last week in Maryland for a presentation at NOAA that included a lecture about hurricane hunting and tornados. I stopped in at the NOAA museum. One of the displays indicated the record largest hail stones for Maryland, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia. The largest hail ever recorded in Washington DC was baseball size. The largest in Maryland was grapefruit size, and the winner, in Northern Virginia was 5-inches in diameter (about the same diameter as a computer diskette.) The grapefruit size hail in Maryland fell during thunderstorms that occured on the same day that the F-5 tornado touched down in LaPlata, Maryland, I believe during 2002, or thereabouts, during April.

Charity Dental Work Needed
|

OK, so I need to get some serious dental work done, but as always I find myself lacking in fundage. I may visit some local churches tomorrow and see if there are any charities or perhaps generous dentists who might be able to help. I need allo f my decayed and abcessed roots extracted and a complete set of dentures. A dentist with a sliding scale will cover 65 % of the cost based on my limited fixed income, but I need to raise the other 35 %. Wish me luck, friends. I miss the taste of a fresh, crunchy salad.

The large virtual birthday hall is empty except for me. I sadly remove all the virtual drinks and food and decorations. People did not wish me a happy birthday today on-line

Your Favorite Joints Today?

I enjoy listening to Nitty Scott, Carty Yeah, and Diggy Simmons. What artists and/or tunes are YOU listening to today? I think the melody is much more important than the lyrics, myself. I could enjoy listening to a joint that totally dissed me personally if the melody was good. Finding a good melody is a lot like panning for gold with your ear in ANY generation / time. Mostly dirt, a few rare nuggets.

Cathedral in Washington DC will open again in November after the earthquake damage has been stablelized. Washington Monument still closed due to earthquake damage as far as I know. Baltimore had near 20 inches of rain in September, following a wet August with the hurricane. Tropics likely to spawn an inland hurricane that will bring sustained winds of 74 MPH or higher somewhere in VA, DE, MD, PA, and/or NJ within the next 3 years according to climatological cycles that have regularly done this every 57-60 years going back for the last 400 years. The last inland hurricane to strike the middle Atlantic states struck 57 years ago (Hurricane Hazel, 1954) Hazel brought sustained (continuous) winds in Washington DC of 78 MPH with a peak gust of 98 MPH. The homes and buildings in the middle Atlantic states that were constructed in the 1970's-2010's are much more fragile than the sturdy construction in the 1700's-1950/60's. And yet...hazel tore down block masonary constructed buildings in Delaware in 1954. The great mid-Atlantic INLAND hurricane striking in the highest density populated part of this country will likely out do Katrina MANY times over...within 3 years. FEMA...prepare to go bankrupt. Property insurance corporations...mother nature says it's PAYBACK TIME!
(Sorry for all the gloom and doom. It's just where my mind went while typing this blog). So I say...lets improve our mood now and GET HIGH! Liqour and/or drugs...leagal or...?

I never would have thought that it would be October before I got compensated from uninsured motorist fund...back in August when the crash happened. It seems that the proper amount of time has finally elapsed to move on this case sinse the un-insured driver who pulled out in front of me has NOT been willing to sign an affadavit admiting that he has no auto insurance. So this comming week, I need to wait for MORE paperwork to arrive to me via UPS to fill out and return with the title to my destroyed car. THEN when they receive that, they will send me the check for my loss, and provide a rental car for 7-10 days to allow me time to shop for a vehicle. I am worried that the amount that I receive shall be very low because the total loss unit considers the MILEAGE as well as the age of the car when determining the amount I shall receive for damages. I don't get down to the library very often now to get on-line because the walk from my apartment is SO long (4 miles rount trip) that it takes so much out of me due to my neuropathy in both feet.
