egg recall, the wave, solar meter, the picture

EGG RECALL
as many of you know there is a recall of millions of eggs because of an outbreak of salmonella
these were not organic free range eggs
saw the mother of the little friend who did not like the taste of the eggs we gave him
told her to remind him that our eggs did not have that problem
these outbreaks are usually related to the mass production of products like beef, chicken, vegetables like
spinach, tomatoes where contamination in the process has large scale effect on the public

recommendation is cook your eggs well done if there is  a chance you could have one of the eggs

but me im going to just have my organic free range egg sunny side up today

THE WAVE
if you live in the country then you know what the wave is
we live near and work in  a large metropolitan area of 1000000 people
if you do the wave in town people think you are weird
in the country where we live everyone waves
as we drive down the 25 mile drive from town on the four lane highway we dont wave
when we turn onto the highway 3 miles from our house then you can start waving
at people and they appreciate it

SOLAR METER
our solar electric system is tied to the grid      we use the grid as our storage
when we are not using a lot of electricity you can go out to the meter
and watch the meter spin backwards

in the fall and spring it spins backwards real fast     at the end of the day
the meter may read less than it did at the beginning of the day

however in this 104 degree heat it spins the other way all day long
especially if my wife she is having hot flashes

THE PICTURE
the new picture labeled larry weekend is of me and a son of some one i work with
looking at old larry      larry was getting in attack mode      thank goodness for the wire cage

tomorrow larry weekend     the dentist
