We are having a few days of extremely cold weather for our part of New Mexico. This evening is going to go below zero degrees Fahrenheit. What is there to do when it is so cold? We live a few miles from the historic village of Jemez Springs. It wouldn't surprise you to hear that there are many...

No problem at all, Greg. Except for what I saw with my own eyes, I would have a completely different opinion on the value of medical marijuana.

I have no sympathy, or time for Cheech and Chong. In fact, I have never tried marijuana, and always stop after two beers-and that less than three times per year. I am not looking for a halo, but I hope this helps make the case that this is a serious medical issue for many, not an excuse for a...

Perhaps I am the last person you would expect to say this, but I have become convinced that there is an important place for the medical use of marijuana in the treatment of a variety of medical problems. These include glaucoma, severe nausea (most often from medical such as chemotherapy or...

Post deleted Sorry folks. I thought I could fix the photo so it couldn't be copied. I wasn't able to do it, so took it down to protect privacy interests.

Did you have it done in Albuquerque? I had one done there, and I was not at all impressed! To me, it seemed all about making money. I asked them for copies of my medical records. For all of their supposed "reams" of data, what I got was basically a re-hash of information I had given them in...

Lawyers are more often the butt of jokes than the source of jokes, so this is a little unusual. I just finished a long article in the New York Times about many of their problems dealing with the Wiki Leaks founder. Apparently the following was a real Christmas Card sent out by one of Wiki Leaks...

I agree it is great to own the machine. When I first read your post, it bugged me that I was not given the option to purchase when I started testing about six years ago. However, I console myself with the thought that my insurance company made the lease payments until the value of the machine...

Thank you to everyone for such kind words. Every time I post some pictures, I am eager to hear how people like them. I have enjoyed telling Barb about the encouragement I have received for buying a new lens. Unless you have purchased serious photographic equipment, it is hard to imagine how...

You are correct, Sir.

Why does he need a better lens? For pictures like this. This is as close as I could pull in this shot. http://jemez-photography.smugmug.com/Birds/Birds-from-the-Rio-Grande/Bald-Eagle/1164815001_v7TZ6-X2.jpg

I am pretty proud of these. I am getting very interested in bird photography. Unfortunately, that would mean a significant upgrade to my lenses. :) Please click on the links-I think you will like the pictures...

This is a link to a picture of the rug. Not a really great picture, but Barb had it hung before I got the picture. In the upper right corner you can see the spirit line that Marguerite referred to...

Laurie---I am sure I am destined for some battles. Their bills have never masde sense. I am presently holding a bill that says $175.00 or so is over 90 days past due, and I have no idea what they are talking about. That same bill shows a zero balance for 30 and then 60 days past due. After a...

I have self tested for about 6 years. I started with Raytel, and that worked very well. As a matter of fact, I even was featured (without compensation) as a part of their advertising on the Web. In some manner or another, Philips Remote Cardiac Services took over. For me, they have been much...

Life has been interesting the last several days. Some of you are waiting on other things as well, and thanks for your patience. I hope to put up a picture of the rug sometime on Wednesday.

Thank you Marguerite for both posts. In a moment we will hang the rug, using your "corrected" advice. There is, indeed, a spirit line, and I hadn't looked for it until after reading your comments. I will work on getting a picture, perhaps before it is hung.

About a year ago Barb was being assisted in her classroom by a Navajo woman who is working on a degree that will qualify her as a licensed teacher. Life is not at all easy for a Navajo woman, especially when you add in the extra effort and expense of being a student. This woman "M" was a great...
