These Spam filters...

... are pissing me off! Why do we reg'lars have to go thru this every time?! We're not advertising Cialis® or fiberglass conoes or women's undies for men!

Because I have URLs in my signature line, the filters trigger every time and I have to do them twice. That's ok but I miss one letter and the post goes *poof!*

hell, I'm old. I'm blind in one eye and I can't see out of the other. Gimme a break...

A Word Or Two From My Uncle

Since my uncle John has been  suspended from The Hive, I thought I might post a link to his latest entry on his Uncle Sam's Boot Blog.

This So-So Budget will have to do...WILL IT?... SHOULD IT?

This budget will have to do? It's obvious that the "GO ALONG TO GET ALONG" POLICY of the Bee has been inacted once again. This should be a call to arms..(figuratively of course) but as DeMartini said we should get rid of ALL of our state representitives Republicans and Democrats, Democrats and Republicans! And we should continue to call them daily and express our disapproval. To accept this invites more of the same! So take your "GO ALONG TO GET ALONG" and get the heck out..your free advice is worth exactly what we paid for it.

Here is the Bee Editorial...

Power Line Plan Fizzles With Residents Board of Supervisors Hears Concerns on Energy Pipeline

This is the Bee's own Garth Stapley bringing you some of what happened at the Board of Supervisors Meeting.

 

Six hundred miles of high-voltage power lines would mar farms and country homes simply because that's cheaper than a less disruptive option, a Stanislaus County leader charged Tuesday.

A claim of pursuing renewable energy options "is just a front to sell power up and down California," Supervisor Bill O'Brien told energy officials, prompting vigorous applause from landowners upset at the proposal at a county Board of Supervisors meeting.

A partnership including the Modesto and Turlock irrigation districts wants to run power lines through several counties, including Stanislaus. O'Brien said the utilities could accomplish their goal without their own equipment but are too cheap to pay competitor Pacific Gas & Electric Co. to use its power lines.
