I'LL TAKE ONE OF THOSE


I saw these at the market last week being offered for sale and I ask Ciejay , "honey what will the oeople do with these ugly things" and she said that "The Thai people besides eating them will offer them as an offering at the spirit houses to ask for a special blessing and to ask for directions in their life and to drive away bad spirits and so on and soo forth" . Have you ever heard this before and have you ever seen them offered as an offering at spirit houses ??? Malcom

CRAZY ABOUT A MERCURY























STILL CRAZY ABOUT A MERCURY

Wow, I can't believe that the Ford Motor Company has decided to stop making the Mercury Automobile after all these years , I always liked them more than the ford cars , and thought the had real style at a affordable cost to the owner, and the girls loved them and the guys loved to drag the stirp in them and , they were a favorite car to customize . A sad day for car lovers . I thought I would post a few of my Favorite Merc's . Hope you enjoy. If you ever owner a Mercury and have a picture , please send to me , I'd love to add it to my collection . Malcolm

AN UNEXPECTED VISITOR


Ciejay and me woke up this morning to a loud bang on our bedrom window , when we opened the front door to see what made the noise we saw this beautiful bird , just laying on his side like he was dead , I picked it up and felt a movement so I thought it's still alive, well with a little CPR and a good massage , within 2 or 3 min he was back on his feet , I rubbed his head and back for a min while he sat perched on my finger and then he just fly off into the wild blue yonder, I think he or she's ok and will live to see another day and hopefully not another window .

LIFE AIN'T EASY FOR A FARM GIRL

I found this picture of the Jupia's working in the rice field near their house and thought I should post it,thats Ciejay in the back . Life was hard on the farm , but I think working together as a family to raise their food and ,also crops to sell , is the thing that makes them such a close family even to this day . Malcolm
