    I came across one like that, about opossums being misunderstood, of their values, and to please not kill them.

    Can't wait for the cute video about people dressing and hugging pet lamprey eels.

    Gonna share the problem? Inquiring SOC minds wanna know.

    I'm assuming it was the back-flow valve, but you should not need one unless there's an issue at the pump.

    Well he seldom let others work on our things. Like mechanic running off spark lug into engine, Jake had to repair his repair carefully drill it back out.
    But today he said he was going to call well company, I told him to first make sure its not the valve, he did and it saved us 100s if not 1000s. He went to hardware store and paid 38.00 for valve. Took about 30 minutes to put it in. Jake is very good repairing things, almost anything except me.:D

    Snakes eat rats and other varmints that carry disease.

    I'll admit to this...

    When I was in the process of buying this place. I hired a home inspector. She and I went into the crawlspace, and there must have been a dozen snake sheds hanging down from the pipes and floor joists (the place had been vacant for a number of years.) She just kind of nonchalantly shone her flashlight on them. I told her "If I weren't under here with a woman, I'd be heading for the exit, shrieking like a schoolgirl."

    Yeah me …me …

    I’ve been a member of a crafty/ cooking forum for about 10 maybe 11 years ….i joined it as one forum them the lady who ran the forum decided to close it down , so members of the forum put their heads together and set up a free forum …so we were all encouraged to join the new forum which I did ……

    on that forum we have a what are you cooking today …like most forums
    and I posted what I was cooking a few times , and usually what I posted was modified recipe's to suit myself that are in books I’ve purchased and can also be found FREE online

    This is what I posted …..I was making ..it’s exactly the same recipe word for word ….right down to the exact photo.

    I have in a book called fast 800 calories cookbook , which is high protein foods which is my food preference .

    Well one of the fairly newish would be’s if she could be ..went off at me ..abused me for posting a free recipe online that’s identical to the recipe in my book ( which I commented on posted a photo of out of interest ) she abused the hell out of me and deleted my post …….reason being …….reason being SHE WOULD be sued ….along with the site …….if she as a mod was seen to overlook copyright ……WHAT ….I LOOKED UP COPYRIGHT

    …… regarding posting recipes that are in books and copyright simply doesn't exist ( In Australia )

    when it comes to cooking ….on line or in books the reason being who’s to say WHO INVENTED that recipe ……whom was the original writer of that recipe ……??
    who knows

    Shes been there about 18 months …..so i thought nar not going to take that sort of abuse ..so I was able to delete my account …

    this recipe is Free online Photo is exact photo as in my book ( and an entirely different author )

    I use chicken as I don’t like pork that much

    I feel better now ..so don’t go calling the paddy wagon as yet …. IMG_3586.gif
