Great music posted tonight. From Jimi Hendrix to Jeff Beck
to Stevie Ray Vaughn.

Seems the drift is on a Lasagna kick as well. I love good
Lasagna. Momma always makes the best.

Old Snubby and the missus doing the nudist walk.
God Bless ya', but if a photo got out of me nude
i fear the horror might be too much for the public.

And now....on to dog poo.
Another typical drift day. I like it.

Big storms and wind blew thru here about 2 hours ago.
No major damage done, just some limbs blown down.
Hopefully it will ease the humidity back a little for Thursday.

Everybody be safe and tell those around you that you Love them.
Never know when that last time may be.
Tomorrow is promised to no one.

"...on September 27, 1997, during routine drug interdiction operations, Callaghan detected a high speed contact off Columbia waters. When the sun rose the contact was visually identified as a high speed cigarette boat. Callaghan pursued the contact for over three days, and in the final three hours the craft dumped its load of illegal drugs. Once completed the craft was able to accelerate and outran the Callaghan. It was pursued by a high speed craft and helicopters until the cigarette boat reached Columbia territorial waters. The Callaghan returned and fished 3.5 metric tons of watertight cocaine bundles floating in the water. The bales tested to be pure cocaine and had a street value at over $1 billion."
 
Good night drift,time to hit the sack and read a little before I conk out. Sent e mails to my Senators to remind them of my preferences. Probably get some standard reply but hopefully other voters will contact them and maybe they will get to work on doing good for the country. The NRA truly needs our help. Drift on,don't worry,be happy.
