“ Whew...you guys have really been busy ! We appreciate your information about Helen, cause we had no idea when, or if, she'd be here. If she gets here that soon, we shouldn't have to re-clean everything we cleaned before Jody and family got here.

Fletcher and Ivy are spending the night with us. I asked Jody and Dave what they were going to do for the evening..they looked at each other blankly - or looked blankly at each other. Then they decided they'd probably just drive around and look at the changes that have occurred in the area.

Tomorrow it's the 4th of July at Pioneer Park until it gets so hot we get grumpy and wanna come home...we figure about noon.
Sunday it's the movie, "Up."
Monday J & D are heading home.
Tuesday or so, H. arrives.
By then we will have made it through our 6th "official" day of retirement.
We'll see y'all sometime in August. But don't bother cleaning for us !!
Please give your family our love...They're an interesting lot.
Oh, speaking interesting lot, Wally and Eric pulled two drunken sots from a burning trailer house.
Love to you all !!!!
Di and Carol”

** THIS IS WHAT I WROTE TO THEM **
I think that Wally & Eric are heroes because of what they did.

How about we give half your love to good ol’ B.O. and give half
of ours to him as well. Then divide the rest between children
of siblings. ( who’s siblings, it doesn’t matter ).
Sounds like Wally & Eric are heroes. They’ll probably get
rich. But with that kind of money that disappears ( the kind
that is put in pension funds. )
I’m watching one of the InstantWatch movies that Netflix
has for the web - Southland Tales. It’s a sci-fi ( of sorts ).
actors I recognize from SNL and the lady who played BUFFY
THE VAMPIRE SLAYER. It’s a B-movie, but I’d make it a B+-
movie.

How was UP ?? The trailers ( previews ) all look pretty good.
And I liked all the Pixar films.
I found WALL-E on NETFLIX InstantWatch recently and
swallowed my surprise and watched it ( it had come highly
recommended ). ( I’m such a cartoon guy ! )
Maybe UP will show up ...

Did I say that I think Wally and Eric are heroes ? I think
they are. Tell them to watch out for propane bottles. Don’t
put such between you and the ‘get-out’ place. Either that,
or be like me - real lucky ... Wow !!!

The ‘gutter-guy’ ( Bob or Mark or Bill ) is putting a few new
gutters and connectors and corners up. There was a
cancellation or something, so we will get all our stuff done.
It will probably still rain here, and the sun won’t shine like it
should, and Connie still wants to move to a warm place in
Europe - or any place with more warm and sun. Me, I, too,
find that warm is very attractive, and sunshine makes me
happy. But I’m looking at the future availability of drinking
water. Which may be looking too far ahead.
Helen left some pictures here. I think CF has mailed them
to you.
love you,
john

STOCK - TEAM AMERICA - MORMONS

2009-06-11 - thu
The Mormons hit the neighborhood last pm. James, brave lad
that he is, put them off from us. The neighborhood gods
would’ve been pissed had he not. Catzilla, Possumzilla,
Racoonzilla and the rest.

It’s early and I’ am watching TEAM AMERICA - again. It’s
really good, but has some coarse stuff in it.

Leah & James’ cat, Jasmine - she’s kind of everybody’s - got
attacked by a raccoon that broke her leg and kept pulling her
out of their catdoor when she tried to get in - like a horror
movie. And the raccoon thought about attacking James a few
times when he tried to help Jasmine. And the raccoon is
still skulking about their place these nights. Not rabies or
hydrophobia, or such. Usually raccoons around here keep to
themselves. I guess times are tough for everyone on earth.
We’ll keep watchin’ out.

FROM THE ORANGE DOOR

BUCKET OF BLOOD on HULU.
“
be a nose...
- Meow -
oh, frankie, how'd ya get stuck in the wall ??
“
WOW !!!
and lots of starting ( or dead ) actors and singers and
language coaches. Real cool, Man.
Boy ! Those beatniks were wierd - or weird - or both.
and Walter sure leaves a lot to be desired as an artist. ...
but he could do string puppet molds.
BUCKET OF BLOOD - movie
no bucket, no blood - just "beatniks" at THE YELLOW DOOR
coffee shop of artists ( poets, sculptors, painters, &tc and other
'way out, cool mans' )
"

Since I've seen all LOST IN SPACE 3 times, and all of STRANGERS
WITH CANDY 3 times, I thought I should watch ANDY BARKER, P.I.
( which is really good ) again ( I didn't know Conan O'brien was such
a good writer - and Andy Richter good actor )

EEEEEEK !
Another case of H1N1 !
That's almost as scary as a billion dollars !
I was lookin' thru' the fridge and I came across 20 billion dollars.
Enough for a loaf of bread. WooHoo, we'll have bread for dinner !
If you want to come for dinner, we're having bread - or maybe just
greenbacks. But we'll try for bread.
Now I hear that the iSD is better than the iPD in explaining smart
non-mathmatician behavior ( a 'smart non-mathmatician' human has
to be someone who didn't go to Purdue or those other rich controller colleges that teaches one how the game should be played )
See, Game Theorists won a lot of Nobel Prizes in ECONOMY. And
GAME THEORY is a branch of mathematics ( that grew too big for
its britches. ).

ELEPHANTS KIDNAP ZOOKEEPERS AND MINERS ...
A band of rogue elephants descended on the zoo in the South African
town of Knysna.

The best and safest and least 'surprising' STRANGERS WITH
CANDYs are SEASON 2 "BLANK STARE 1" and "BLANK STARE 2."
Oh yeah - on "http://www.hulu.com"

? dow - 8200.00 ( 05-?? )
dow - 8763.13
nasdaq - 1849.42
s&p - 940.09
So, my latest stock-market-crackpot-theory is that they will bring the
DOW up at about 100 whatzits a week to make pension funds,
defered comp, and other groups of investors feel better. It ( the
DOW thing ) was below 8200 whatzits not long ago - 1 or 2 mo.s
( it's almost as hard to remember stuff as it is to see ).
