This reminds me of " The Songs of a Distant Earth" by Arthur C Clarke. The planet Thalassa had been settled by colonist from Earth and in the memory banks of the main computer that raised the population from DNA all mention of God, religion, war, evil etc had been erased. It left a really bland population in thought deed and the arts in my humble opinion. I couldn't imagine music without pain and suffering, sadness. No Blues. Issac Asimov liked to write God out of the future too. How sad. Carry on.

I'll let you know when I'll be in the area. I have to get some boat parts down the in a week or 2.

So, what you're saying is money made from tithing money is tithes? And we owe Craig an apology?

Not a scholar but I've had dreams and visions about it. In one vision I was driving through Belmont Shores and everyone was dead. You know the stretch that I mean with all the sidewalk cafes? In another vision I saw a nuclear go off in L.A. Harbor. I'm not a prepper, I don't hangout on end of the world bulletin boards. I hope nono of them come true. I used to love driving down Ocean Blvd, through Belmont Shores to PCH to Huntington Beach to get home.

Yes. When I died and my spirit left my body I was reading things out in the parking lot that I could not have read before while I was strapped to a gurney. There is no way my brain could have produced this effect because those vehicles were not in the parking lot before I was strapped down. I could see them coming and going. One said Fullerton Police on the side of a black and white van.

She had 3 and they're doing fine but we think they're all three preemies. The other cat is getting ready to burst like a balloon and she's much bigger and they're the same age and probably got pregnant around the same time. She won't let us catch her so we can put her in the same Nursery trailer but she knows that open boxes there with the blanket in it so I don't know what's going to happen probably be following her around until she has them and scoop them up and put them in there. Next to her sister. These three feral cats were dumped off at the county landfill and someone brought him to our place and we got stuck with them. They're great cats though their brother is all worried and he won't go in the nursery trailer anymore he sleeps out front and jumps in our lap and purrs.

Thanks, she had 2 more last nite. I wonder how you tell when she's done?

Our two feral female kittens are having kittens. Anyways we didn't think they were that far along. We have an old travel trailer in back and I just got to hinges put on the plywood cover in the old door and the old cat poop scooped out. Then one of the expectant mothers dropped a kitten right on the back porch. It happened so fast, I scared her coming out the back door with more catfood. Neither one of us had a clue what was going on. Luckily I had a box and a blankie ready for her to go into and we finally got her into the trailer and in her Nursery box. But so far she's only had one kitten and it's been several hours. My question is can she have a preemie kitten and the rest will come later? How soon should I take her to the vet for a C-section if no more kittens arrive? It's her first litter and I don't think she knew what to do but eventually she started cleaning it and nursing it and they look healthy. We haven't had kittens for 30 years so we are way out of touch.

Yes, it would help. It's only been a fear since Mom died 3 years ago. We can't leave Dad alone so It's rare when Patti and I get to go home to the boat together, or anywhere together for more than a few hours.

Yeah making it from Eureka to Redlands after a nuke attack on our bases would be very difficult. My fuel range is 400 miles. I pass 4 bases that I know of. I guess I should start collecting 5 gallon fuel jugs.

It seems to be a phenomenon across the land on various websites. I guess I'm just afraid the Ballon will go up when I'm 700 miles from Patti and Dad. Carry on.

Iran just shot a bunch of missiles and drones at Israel and we are worried about sexual identification. 🤣 It simply amazes me.

I have some, I'll do a better photo log.

Interiors of old boats should never be painted, exterior, paint away. Old growth teak and mahogany are hard to come by. It Is a crime against nature. I spent a year restoring the Interior of a '62 Chris Craft. Just the salon, galley and dining area.

At 30.00 per board foot and up teak should be oiled or varnished or a nice urethane. I use Bristol. It has Amber in it. Teak holds up real well in a wet environment, it has natural oils in it. If you have teak that has turned gray you can use oxalic acid too bath it and restore the color.
