Sitting on my back deck listening to a pair of Red Tailed Hawks screech out as they hunt….and watching doves high tail it out of Dodge. They know what’s on the menu.

Peecycling to save the world from imminent destruction.

Liquid Gold.

Who's got it, where can you get it, can you make it yourself?

A veritable fountain of wealth at your disposal.

Don't waste it.

Just click here for a taste of the future.


Tales from the front.






Many many more papers written on this, but it seems current fertilizer shortages suddenly bring Peecycling the recognition that it deserves, an unforeseen consequence of current events.

Where is the iguana line? I just read an article and looked at a map that shows them all the way up to Jacksonville. Also mentioned Merritt Island, so Fixit should be on the lookout!

In addition at the time the article was written people called "cullers" got paid for every one they captured. It didn't say if it was an old west "dead or alive". On the bright side, if they get to where you are you could have a new source of income!
I remember just 2 yrs ago they had a real cold snap in florida where the news was warning people about the possibility of being struck by frozen iguanas falling from the trees! :ROFLMAO:

JACKSONVILLE 😳!!! I'm 90 miles SOUTH of Jacksonville. I didn't know. I guess it's time to call my friends in New Brunswick Canada! Apparently someone moved the line before they contacted me. The last I heard it ran roughly across the state from Melbourne to Tampa.

Actually, I'm more concerned about Cane Toads moving northward. They are highly toxic and can kill your pets very quickly. Paradise, indeed!
Cane toads are a huge problem in northern Aus. They were imported in the 50’s to control cane beetles but got out of control.

A lot of native reptiles meet their doom eating a toad as well as pets.

We always had to check the pool filter prior to swimming.

As snotty teenagers there were a few things we did contributing to population control however.

I lived near where this video was shot down around West Palm Beach about 45 years ago, and iguanas were not there yet. They are certainly marching northward.

I watched an old Dirty Jobs episode recently where they were with a team of guys with pellet guns and nets doing their part to reduce the number of tree chickens in Florida.

Tree Chicken made me laugh.

How many picks can you drop during a set? Neal Schon has 8 picks taped to his Fender, and looks like he lost one or two already?

This just made me think of a new event for the Guitar Olympics:

Pick Extraction.

The amount of time it takes to shake out a pick dropped inside an acoustic guitar. 6- and 12-string divisions as well as classes for different guitar body shapes and sizes. Even a ukulele division for the kiddos.

Do I win automatically in the solid body electric bass category, especially since I don't use a pick?

If we are veering to events in the Guitar Olympics, after watching a recent live performance I might propose an event where the guitar's on board battery needs to be replaced by a battery from a pedal and a string needs to be changed but there is no place to safely put the bridge pin during the change so it has to remain in hand during the change.
