Where in the sam hill is prague
The capital city of the Czech Republic, Prague, is situated in the very heart of Europe, on a place that has been an intersection of continental merchant routes since time immemorial. It was the seat of Czech princes and kings from the tenth century A.D. In the mid-14th century, Prague was the centre of the Holy Roman Empire and Europe’s third largest city in terms of population. As part of the Hapsburg monarchy, Prague remained the capital of Czech lands, which became the strongest part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in terms of economy during the 19th century. Prague was developing as an important centre where Czech, German and Jewish cultures met and mingled. Following the establishment of the Czechoslovak Republic in 1918, Prague became the metropolis of the new country. It experienced a growth of its territory and a great building boom. Currently, Prague is a large city of more than one million people, spreading over almost 500 square kilometres. Following the social and economic changes in 1989, Prague enhanced its historically strong ties with other cities in Central Europe, and has gradually been gaining a continuously improving position within the continental structure of big cities. Prague therefore deserves its recognition as being a high quality city.

WORKING
Blow her up,. Clinton said
I got 3 big cucumbers this morning. Every day I think I got all of them and then the next morning I find more growing hidden from view. I pulled my onions yesterday usually I just let them lay where they are cause I grow them for green onion but this year I had put them in the tires and I want to plant turnips in the tires on the 25 of July so I pulled them and they are on the porch. Sammy made a rice and pork dish and used 2 of them last evening. My children will use them if they don't have to go very far to get them. The last time I bought onions they were a dollar a pound
Bill Clinton said yesterday Obama might have to sent the navy to blow up the oil well He also said BP was staling on this solution because they wanted to get the oil and if the well was sealed BP would not be allowed to drill there again. I have been thinking that this company's main concern is saving the oil instead of saving the environment. I suppose Clinton is rather glad it is Obama that will have to give the order to blow her sky high and not Hillary.
I saw Mr Gore was in California but refused to answer questions . I had read where he had bought a mansion in California this probably is his new love nest.

John Rogers
This man was in our family line and was the first marter by the Bloody Queen Mary
John "Thomas Matthew" Rogers
John Rogers went on to print the second complete English Bible in 1537. It was, however, the first English Bible translated from the original Biblical languages of Hebrew & Greek. He printed it under the pseudonym "Thomas Matthew", (an assumed name that had actually been used by Tyndale at one time) as a considerable part of this Bible was the translation of Tyndale, whose writings had been condemned by the English authorities. It is a composite made up of Tyndale's Pentateuch and New Testament (1534-1535 edition) and Coverdale's Bible and some of Roger's own translation of the text. It remains known most commonly as the Matthew-Tyndale Bible. It went through a nearly identical second-edition printing in 1549.
John Rogers was born in 1500 in the parish of Aston, near Birmingham. He was a minister, Bible translator and commentator. John Rogers was the first English Protestant martyr to be executed by Mary I of England, a.k.a. “Queen Bloody Mary”. He was burned at the stake on February 4, 1555 at Smithfield.
Early Years of John Rogers
John Rogers, was educated at Pembroke Hall, Cambridge University, where he graduated with a B.A. in 1526. Six years later he was rector of Holy Trinity, Queenhithe, London, and in 1534 went to Antwerp as chaplain to the English merchants of the Company of the Merchant Adventurers. Here he met William Tyndale, under whose influence he abandoned the Roman Catholic faith. Rogers took a wife named Adriana, a native of Antwerp, who eventually bore him ten childern.
The Death of John Rogers
When the time came that he should be brought out of Newgate Prison to Smithfield, the place of his execution, Mr. Woodroofe, one of the sheriffs, first came to John Rogers, and asked him if he would revoke his abominable doctrine, and the evil opinion of the Sacrament of the altar. Rogers answered, "That which I have preached I will seal with my blood." Then Mr. Woodroofe said, "Thou art an heretic." Rogers replied "That shall be known at the Day of Judgment." Mr. Woodroofe added, "I will never pray for thee." Though Rogers responded "But I will pray for you.”
John Rogers awaited and met death on the 4th of February 1555 at Smithfield cheerfully, though he was denied even a last moment with his wife. Rogers stands as the first blood on the hands of Queen “Bloody” Mary… and the first of hundreds more to come. Noailles, the French ambassador, speaks of the support given to John Rogers by the majority of the people commenting, "even his children assisted at it, comforting him in such a manner that it seemed as if he had been led to a wedding rather than an execution."
breakfast
Link sausages, fried zucchini squash rolled in corn meal and caned biscuits. come on in. The squash was in my tub garden in the yard. I will have yellow squash any day and I like them better but the zucchini in the tub has served me well.
I Cook breakfast most morning and Janet and Sammy are not long in hitting the floor. I think nephew Donnie is coming by, he will clean up the scraps.
Byrd dies
WASHINGTON — Sen. Robert Byrd of West Virginia, a fiery orator versed in the classics and a hard-charging power broker who steered billions of federal dollars to the state of his Depression-era upbringing, died Monday. He was 92.
I did some research on him a few years back, a family member James Furry's Mother was a Byrd and so I looked at the most famous Byrd for him. Robert Byrd wasn't born a Byrd he got the name from the family who raised him. He was Cornelious Calvin Sale Jr. at birth his mother died when he was 1 year old and his aunt and uncle, Titus and Vlurma Byrd raised him Naming him Robert C. Byrd.
He was truly a son of West Virginia having been a member of the KKK at one time and then taking up the mantle of civil right when it became the popular thing to do. I think he was like most in our government being for what would get him elected and against what wouldn't . There is no doubt he served his state well. Not long ago a Republican brought a bill to vote in the middle of the night because Byrd was ill and they hoped he wouldn't show up for the vote. lost cause, Byrd was present he was wheeled in by an aid casted his vote and went home to bed.
In 1997 he said in an interview he encouraged all young people to get involved in politics but to avoid the KKK, he said don't get that albatross around your neck. I have apologise a thousand times and I don't mind apologising again and again but I can't erase what happened. He said he was affected with tunnel vision and thought joined the KKK would help him in his ambitions. It probably did at that time.
Campinas, Sao Paulo
Campinas, Sao Paulo a visitor came by from this place and I had no clue where it was on the map but after googling it I saw that it was a city in Brazil. This is one of the photos I found from there. It looks rather like our red dirt. They had some tall building in the city and looked to be a rather up and coming place.
I threw some hay in the chicken pen this morning, every thing was soaking wet due to the down pour we had yesterday.

A June 24, 2010 document, designated “Top Secret: National Insecurity,” details the true nature of former Vice President Richard Bruce Cheney's recent hospitalization. VP Cheney is being held at the Acute Psychiatric Services Wing of the Bethesda Naval Hospital, at an undisclosed location, for observation. The “public release” will suggest that Cheney is hospitalized for “mild discomfort and chest pains,” the same cover story that was successfully used on February 22, 2010.On Wednesday, June 23, 2010, the Central Intelligence Agency recorded a series of one hundred thirty two phone calls from the former vice president, demanding that former Ambassador Joseph Wilson be sent to the Hostess Headquarters in Cuba, to document that President Barack H. Obama has acquired an undisclosed amount of Twinkies Yellow Cake, and thus poses a “dire threat to U.S. national security.”On Thursday, June 24, 2010, Cheney approached the White House lawn with a companion, Harry Whittington. Both men were dressed in high-quality Cabela hunting gear, and were armed with shotguns and fishing poles. VP Cheney informed Secret Service Agent Walter “Ringo” Starr that he was returning to reclaim his rightful throne, under the Continuity of Government Act that he instituted on September 11, 2001. When Agent Starr questioned Cheney, the former vice president began quoting Scene II, Act 4 of Hamlet. Agent Starr noted that VP Cheney “appeared to be under great stress.” At this point, VP Cheney began shouting, “I have a hostage!” and “Legalize Lonnie Anderson's hair!” Agent Starr then suggested that he could call Lewis “Scooter” Libby; at this point, VP Cheney shouted, “We Did It! We Did It!,” and shot Mr. Whittington in the face. After accepting Mr. Whittington's sincere apology, VP Cheney was taken into protective custody.A Friday, June 25, 2010 report notes that VP Cheney remains psychotic, and suffering from optical delusions. In the past 24 hours, Cheney has:(1)Informed doctors that he is actually Valerie Plame Wilson, working undercover, and that if the hospital does not release “her” immediately, their failure will do grave damage to the United States;(2)Stated that he “knows his constitutional rights,” and will both refuse to talk and demand his Amendment 2 right to bear arms.(3)Experienced periods of extreme paranoia, in which he suggests that all offered medical assistance is “torture in Violation of the Geneva Convention,” and has threatened to have Patrick Fitzgerald prosecute anyone who offers him a glass of water.(4)Demanded that General McChrystal follow his order to “remove Obama from office, or face stern discipline.”(5)Requested a meeting with the EPA, to “prove that Reagan was right: trees, not oil spills, are a threat to the environment.”For further updates, please check the following official web site:www//http: yipstertimes/notreality/1984.com
cheney Ill
Chaney is in the hospital again with discomfort. He had his 5th heart attack early this year. I saw this post on the demarcate underground and I realize that we should not take pleasure in a fellow human being's suffering but in this case it is hard not too.
There was a man who, everyday, would buy a newspaper on the way to work, glance at the headline, and hand it back to the newsboy. Day after day the man would go through this routine. Finally the newsboy could not stand it and he asked the man, "Why do you always buy a paper and only look at the front page before discarding it?"The man replied, "I am only interested in the obituaries.""But they are on page 21. You never even unfold the newspaper.""Young man," he said, "the son of a bitch I'm looking for will be on the front page

call 911 get tasered
Thursday, June 24, 2010Last Update: 12:54 PM PT
Police Said to Taze Grandmother
By TIM HULL
(CN) - Police Tasered an 86-year-old disabled grandma in her bed and stepped on her oxygen hose until she couldn't breathe, after her grandson called 911 seeking medical assistance, the woman and her grandson claim in Oklahoma City Federal Court. Though the grandson said, "Don't Taze my granny!" an El Reno police officer told another cop to "Taser her!" and wrote in his police report that he did so because the old woman "took a more aggressive posture in her bed," according to the complaint. Lonnie Tinsley claims that he called 911 after he went to check on his grandmother, whom he found in her bed, "connected to a portable oxygen tank with a long hose." She is "in marginal health, [and] takes several prescribed medications daily," and "was unable to tell him exactly when she had taken her meds," so, Tinsley says, he called 911 "to ask for an emergency medical help to come to her apartment to evaluate her." In response, "as many as ten El Reno police" officers "pushed their way through the door," according to the complaint. The grandma, Lona Varner, "told them to get out of her apartment." The remarkable complaint continues: "Instead, the apparent leader of the police [defendant Thomas Duran] instructed another policeman to 'Taser her!' He stated in his report that the 86 year-old plaintiff 'took a more aggressive posture in her bed,' and that he was fearful for his safety and the safety of others. "Lonnie Tinsley told them, 'Don't taze my Granny!' to which they responded that they would Taser him; instead, they pulled him out of her apartment, took him down to the floor, handcuffed him and placed him in the back of a police car. "The police then proceeded to approach Ms. Varner in her bed and stepped on her oxygen hose until she began to suffer oxygen deprivation. "The police then fired a Taser at her and only one wire struck her, in the left arm; the police then fired a second Taser, striking her to the right and left of the midline of her upper chest and applied high voltage, causing burns to her chest, extreme pain and to pass out. "The police then grabbed Ms. Varner by her forearms and jerked hands together, causing her soft flesh to tear and bleed on her bed; they then handcuffed her. "The police freed Lonnie Tinsley from his incarceration in the back of the police car and permitted him to accompany the ambulance with his grandmother." Tinsley says the cops capped it all off by having his grandmother "placed in the psychiatric ward at the direction of the El Reno police; she was held there for six days and released." "As a result of the wrongful arrest and detention, the plaintiff Lona M. Varner suffered the unlawful restraint of her freedom, bodily injury, assault, battery, the trashing of her apartment, humiliation, loss of personal dignity, infliction of emotional distress and medical bills." They seek punitive damages for constitutional violations, from the City of El Reno, Duran, Officers Frank Tinga and Joseph Sandberg, and 10 Officers Does.
John Deere
Cheryl brought me a book EYEWITNESS TO THE AMERICAN WEST BY DAVID COLBERT there are many short essays in this book and being a student of history I am enjoying it. this is the article about John Deere.
The story of John Deere, who developed the world's first commercially successful, self-scouring steel plow, closely parallels the settlement and development of the Midwestern United States, an area that the homesteaders of the 19th century considered the golden land of promise.
John Deere was born in Rutland, Vermont, February 7, 1804. He spent his boyhood and young adulthood in Middlebury, Vermont, where he received a common school education and served a four-year apprenticeship learning the blacksmith's trade.
Gained Fame as a BlacksmithIn 1825, he began his career as a journeyman blacksmith and soon gained considerable fame for his careful workmanship and ingenuity. His highly polished hay forks and shovels especially were in great demand throughout western Vermont. But business conditions in Vermont became depressed in the mid-1830s, and the future looked gloomy for the ambitious young blacksmith. Many natives of Vermont emigrated to the West, and the tales of golden opportunity that filtered back to Vermont so stirred John Deere's enthusiasm that he decided to dispose of his business and join the pioneers.
He left his wife and family, who were to join him later, and set out with a bundle of tools and a small amount of cash. After traveling many weeks by canal boat, lake boat, and stagecoach, he reached the village of Grand Detour, Illinois, which had been settled by Leonard Andrus and others from his native Vermont. The need for a blacksmith was so great that two days after his arrival in 1836 he had built a forge and was busy serving the community.
Cast-Iron Plows Wouldn't Work There was much to be done - shoeing horses and oxen, and repairing the plows and other equipment for the pioneer farmers. From them he learned of the serious problem they encountered in trying to farm the fertile soil of the Midwest. The cast-iron plows they had brought with them from the East were designed for the light, sandy New England soil. The rich Midwestern soil clung to the plow bottoms and every few steps it was necessary to scrape the soil from the plow. Plowing was a slow and laborious task. Many pioneers were discouraged and were considering moving on, or heading back east.
John Deere studied the problem and became convinced that a plow with a highly polished and properly shaped moldboard and share ought to scour itself as it turned the furrow slice. He fashioned such a plow in 1837, using the steel from a broken saw blade, and successfully tested it on the farm of Lewis Crandall near Grand Detour.
Steel Plow Met Prairie NeedsDeere's steel plow proved to be the answer pioneer farmers needed for successful farming in what was then "the West." But his contribution to the growth of American agriculture far exceeded just the development of a successful steel plow.
Deere established his company making plows and was always trying to make a better design a partner ask him why bother, they have to buy what we have and John told him yes, and soon someone will come along and out sell us and we will be out of business. The John Deere company is going strong today nearly 200 years after John Deere made his first plow.
knock knock

There was a knock on the door yesterday and when I went to the door My niece Cheryl Ann stood before me holding a arm load of books.She brought me several books that I will enjoy reading.
Early there was a knock and my neighbor was there she ask did I want any green tomatoes? She said she had just picked a 5 gallon bucket half full for the life of me I can't understand why anyone would go pick that many green tomatoes!
The cucumbers are putting out some fruit and I will soon have yellow squash to eat. No tomatoes yet but I usually have ripe tomatoes by July 4th.

check out
I always check my tape when I get in the car to see if I need to go back and complain about something not long ago I was in the car and Janet was setting and waiting and said to me are you not going to check your tape? I have been know to make her turn around and go back if she leaves before I finish checking. That time I told her I am not checking my tape Miz. Bishop checked me out and even if I found a mistake I wouldn't go back.
This is the story I found on the net this morning....
I went to Walmart last night.Took me over an hour to get the things on my long list. Get to check out and had to wait in line When the cashier started to ring up the person in front of me I got the divider thing and started to put my things on the line. The cashier yelled at me. "You need to put the bar code where I can see them. Turn them this way'' And ignoring the guy in front of me started to turn my cereal boxes around so the bar code was facing her. I don't work at Walmart and I was not going to do her job so I finished unloading my cart. She was not happy and I was thinking I may have to find a manager. She would turn 5 items around scan them then bag them. Did everything that way. When she finished I handed the money to her she totally ignored me and started turning all the items of the next person around until my DD stuck the money in her face and yelled "excuse me.'' Moral of this story: People with OCD shouldn't work at Walmart.

up and at 'um
It's 2:09 in the Am and I am up. I was sleepy last evening and went to bed at 7:30 so I woke and after tossing and turning for a hour I decided to get up. One thing about retirement you can sleep when you want and wake when you want.
I see that the top General in the Afghan war found it necessary to criticize his commander in chief in the rolling stone magazine of all places and to make fun of Joe Biden calling him bite-me. Everyone is wading in on wither the President should fire him or not some people think he is to valuable at this time to chuck down a gofer hole but I think if he isn't smart enough to know that interview would get him in hot water The President should fire him because he has shown he is stupid and as sister is fond of saying you can't fix stupid!
One of the author of blogs that I read has had brain surgery and yesterday she posted her phone number on the web, I was thinking maybe this was not a good idea and perhaps if I called her and suggested gentle that it wasn't the thing to do she would remove her number. I got her husband on the phone and told him to tell her I called and hope she was better soon I told him I saw her number on her blog. I guess they decide to take the phone number down cause it is gone and she says hold all calls for a time. I figure I did my good deed for the week. if putting your number on the web means you get calls from a crazy woman in Arkansas it is time to remove the phone number.

When I first started my blog ,2/28/06 my first visitors were velvet sacks down in what has become the oil soaked state and Carmon who lives on the side of a mountain in the state of New Mexico. Carmon love horses, rescues grey hounds,wild sheep and all living things. I learned yesterday that Carmen has left her beloved mountain for a while and she had been growing a brain tumor if I read right she also had bleeding from the tumor into her brain as the new day dawns I am thinking about a red hairs lady flying across the mountains in New Mexico and hope she is doing well.
