In one scene, with the tri-horse carriage, about frame 1:57-2:06, the back tri-horse group all seemed in perfect step. Beautiful to watch.

Dad never laid a hand on us. Just a look. We were all of the opinion that he would take us out on the prairie (Western Kansas), shoot us, bury us, and that would be that. He had the "Injun Sign" on us all right. Mother now, well, we had to cut our own switches from the cotton wood tree. Didn't take many of them to show us the error of our ways. We all grew up all right. Never laid a hand on my son, however, the forefinger thumped on the forehead (he HATED that) worked like a charm. Note: finger is not a hand.

I use Q-tips and denatured alcohol to clean my Logitech Trackman Marble wheel. Lint builds up on the contact points where the ball rotates, and the ball get gunk from the grease from human skin. This thing is 15 years old.Actually, it is very simple and easy to at least take the cover off, and besides just using canned air to blow out dust, you probably have some lint that has balled up inside and you can pick that out with tweezers. I've had to do that several times to get both a trackball and BT mouse working properly again and you can save yourself 20 bucks or more.

Not everybody is as fortunate as that Jerry. I can count the number of times I have had to defend myself in the past 80 years, and the count is well over 20, as a adult. That does not include Viet Nam, courtesy of the U.S. Gubberment. Being the smallest kid in town and school doesn't lead to a quiet life, it leads to learning how to kick the stuffings out of the bullies. Those fights do not count in the adult count. Sometimes just being in the wrong place when the A....Holes arrive is all it takes.Right. I can't count the number of times I've had to defend myself in the past 72 years. The count hasn't gotten up to 1 yet.
Smiling is similar. I can't count the number of smiles I've both made and generated over the years. Lots and lots.

He probably isn't smoking anything. I had a cousin who had a '62 MG Midget, got right at 38 mpg, maybe 40 downhill, with a good stiff tailwind. But and that is a BIG but, it DID get 40 (occasionally). Sometimes, Jeffery would get 39 mpg, when he wasn't doing firewall starts, and burning rubber stops. He loved that little powerhouse. Like Jerry, he loaded that thing with everything they could manufacture to make it go faster, and get up to Oh God speed quicker.Jerry, what are you smoking???

Jerry, I use House Of Inks (houseofinks.com). I use a Canon Pixma MG5620 all in one, color printer. My ink costs are as follows:I hate having to buy ink for my printers because it ain't cheap. Looking at Staples online, they were charging $58, Amazon was $38, and a seller on Amazon was charging $30. All were for the same original HP ink in an HP box.
Canon CLI-251XL Black (6448B001) High Yield Black Ink Cartridge (Compatible) $4.95
Canon CLI-251XL Cyan (6449B001) High Yield Cyan Ink Cartridge (Compatible) $4.95

Granted, they ship from here in Liberal Ca. might have a few days wait - sorry about that, I get them in a couple of days, (they are down the street and around the corner, sort of).

Got both of ya in our prayer box. Fortunately, it is quite large, and comfortably furnished.This is Criss, my very good close friend here at Monte Vista
Village in Lemon Grove, Ca.
She had a mild stroke a little over a week back. So mild I did not notice any thing except she was not alert. Had the nurse check her. I had taken her blood pressure. 198/100
Went to hospital, now in rehab. So just putting out all the prayer request I can muster.
Thank you all.
