I was up early this morning, charged the helicopter batteries with expectations of a few flights before heading to Miami to continue renovation. Winds, were 15mph so I decided to stay at the condo and head to Miami later in the day.

I knew my stylist was working until 6 and it was nearly 5 when I called to see if she was available. The girl who answered told me 3 were in front and there would be a long wait... She seemed to be unable to grasp that 3 clients waiting and 1 hour before closing meant there wasn't time for me to get a haircut. Duh. It took several tries to get her to realize this.

Al, the brother of my neighbor is jobless and nearly homeless, so I asked if he wanted to cut my lawn... he was over in 2 minutes ready to work. I trimmed the bushes and did the edging. Break time I went to Burger King with a buy one get one free coupon. Al got an unexpected dinner. It would have been sooner, but it took 20 minutes to get through BK.
I equate this to a lack of management. I was a heartbeat away from suggesting they build a fast-food restaurant at that location.

A few minutes before sundown and I did a practice flight in front of the house to drain the battery. Lithium polymer hobby batteries deteriorate if they remain fully charged for long periods of time.

Already 8pm, I was packed and ready to leave when my wife texted asking if I was okay. I phoned back... Yes, all good and I'm heading back. I stopped for gas and the tanker was blocking some of the pumps. I did a few maneuvers and got within 15 feet of the tanker. The driver had 3 hoses connected and pumping away. What surprised me was the amount of fumes off of this rig. I recall someone saying tanker pumps have coaxial fittings with gaskets. As flammable gasoline gets pumped in, pressure returns to the tank... For safety and environmental concerns, it's a sealed system and fumes don't escape. I guess that's only in theory!

Gassed up and heading to the highway, I see the sign on the Carvel Ice Cream store lit up OPEN so it was time for some. I wanted a Chocolate Waffle Cone on a medium soft serve. The girl told me Chocolate Waffle Cones only come in large. My response was I understand, but don't want a large ice cream. How much extra to get the Chocolate Waffle Cone and only put in the amount for a medium.
She looked puzzled and repeated the Chocolate Waffle Cone only comes in large.
I took the medium Waffle Cone... without chocolate.

I recently got back from a friend's house.
They invited me to a BBQ pool party this afternoon.
Good food, and lots of fun.

On the way back home I stopped by Walmart
and got several things, including some sherbet.

It is NOT pina coloda, as my blog title may have indicated.
It is "Margarita". Not bad. A lemon & lime flavor.
So, if you wanted pina coloda, you're s.o.l.
However, I do have plenty of extra Margarita sherbet, if you hurry.

I was doing some random surfing and hit a page with a link to a page that had a link to another page with a video of someone cutting 'things' and what was being cut wasn't exactly what they appeared to be.

See for yourself... It's a piece of cake!

I went out for my morning walk and see someone had dropped 2 bagels in the parking lot expecting to feed the birds.
Some black crows were picking, but strangely no takers.
The reason why... the bagels were stale, as in hard like stone.

I started breaking a bagel into small pieces and throwing out to the birds who quickly ate them up. A squirrel wanted in on the action, so I threw a few larger pieces his way. He grabbed one, climbed the tree and returned for another.

To my surprise, some white birds with long bills came and chased the crows away. They had some difficulty with the size of the pieces I was breaking off for the crows, so I pinched them in 'pea' size chunks and they began to fight over them, eating as fast as I could toss them to the group.

I could see other birds in the nearby tree waiting and after the white birds left, they came over and started feeding. The whole event was more than 30 minutes and both bagels were gone!

I didn't get much walking this morning, but the birds got breakfast on me!

If my retirement plan works out, I would visit China a few months each year. Wondering what I would do for an income, joking I said "I could open up a pizza shop."

Florida has many Italian restaurants and you don't have to travel far to find a good one. A small place about 5 miles away has thin crust 18 inch pizza for $11 on Monday and Tuesday. Takeout only.
But I'm resisting going back there until the stay home order is lifted. In the mean time, we tried some frozen pizza and all failed miserably. My wife said we could make our own and from scratch started working on dough. We already had sauce but only provolone cheese. Good enough for a start.

This is the first round with hand made crust.


I'm honest. better than frozen, but it failed.


So, I bought some refrigerated pizza dough at Walmart and was annoyed at how hard it was to work. The texture wasn't right. I quickly had an attitude change and my wife had to take over.
Maybe my company name will be Moody Pizza.



Pizza shouldn't look like afterbirth. I'm disappointed.

Anyone ever have a 'Grey Snail'?

I have.

Grey Snail
An alcoholic shot consisting of waste liquor lying on the black rubber bar mat. The bartender lifts the rubber mat and pours the mysterious contents into a shot glass. Another alternative is to wipe the bar table clean with a rag and wring the liquids into a shot glass. This shot usually is free. Also known as L.A. traffic jam and cesspool.
I ordered a Grey Snail and saw the bartender lift the rubber mat and pour it all into a shot. It was the worst shot I ever tasted, but you can't complain if you want to get drunk for free.

It was just brought to my attention that many of the foods we are buying off the shelves of stores contain bioengineered ingredients.

Here is an example:

I am looking at my can of Progresso tomato soup...on the back it says: "contains bioengineered ingredients" I also checked another product in my cupboard...and there it was again. I checked a total of 3 and found that 2 of of had these ingredients.

I heard that a large majority of food today has these.

What is bioengineered ingredients?
What ingredients are bioengineered in our products we buy?
How much of these ingredients are bioengineered?
What are the side effects of consuming them?

...interesting I may say

Wondering soy burgers had been around for many decades as I recall them flavored like beef not bad long ago yet the fast food places act like it's a modern day miracle
