Don't Forget To Feed Birds

Don't Forget To Feed The Birds 
   ~    
Winter is upon us again.... so throw out 
    
a couple slices of bread each morning to 
    
feed the birds... a few will appear and in a 
    
few days they will be there waiting for you, 
    
and get to know they can trust you....

Typical Men Before We Had A GPS

Anyone who has ever delivered a eulogy or performed a song at a funeral will understand this.

Time is a River........ Quite moving
   
Time is like a river.You cannot touch the water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. So enjoy every moment of life. As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the backwoods country of West Virginia. 
   
As I was not too familiar with those backwoods, I got lost and being a typical man, I didn't stop for directions. I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral personal had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and the local guys left and they were eating their lunch. I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. 
   
I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play my bagpipes. 
   
The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. 
   
I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends.  I played like I've never played before for this homeless man.
   
And as I played "Amazing Grace", the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished, I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head was hung low, my heart was full. 
   
As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I have never seen nothing like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks for 20 years."

Apparently I'm still lost....it's a man thing.

Merry Christmas 2014

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2014  

  ~  
  ~  
I have been making a conscious effort to wish 
everyone a Merry Christmas this year... 
It's my way of saying that I am celebrating 
The birth Of Jesus Christ. 
So, I am asking my Boomer Friends, if you 
agree with this, to please do the same. 
And if you'll pass this on to Your Friends & 
Relatives, and so on... maybe we can 
 prevent one more American tradition from 
being lost in the sea of "Political Correctness".

Thoughts to Ponder


Thoughts to Ponder 
  ~  
~
  
Why doesn't a chicken egg 
taste like chicken? 
  
Why is it that cargo is 
transported by ship while a 
shipment is transported by car? 
  ~   
~
Does peanut butter really 
have butter in it? 
  
Do mimes watch silent movies? 
  
Is the fear of flying groundless? 
  ~  
~
What would you use to dilute water? Can atheists get insurance 
for acts of God? 
  
Do you need a silencer if you are 
going to shoot a mime? 
  
Can I get arrested for running into 
a Fire House yelling Movie! Movie!? 
  ~  
~ Can you be a closet claustrophobic? Could someone ever get addicted to 
counseling? If so, how could 
you treat them? 
  
Did Adam and Eve have navels? 
  
Did the early settlers ever 
go on a camping trip?

BIRDS, BEES, BATS & BUTTERFLIES

 BIRDS, BEES, BATS,
BUTTERFLIES, & MORE! 
  ~   
Humming Bird Rolls chasing a bee from 
its favorite flower is not to be missed. 
   ~  
Be sure and watch closely (around 2 min 
40 sec), and check out the baby bat under 
its mother as she flies & feeds.

If you never knew what goes on in your yard when you aren't paying attention, watch this - some of the finest photography you will ever see.
