A nice sendoff for Rod.

The Horse @TheHorse (232930) • Walnut Creek, California 6 Dec

As you know, my friend and band mate, Rod, passed away in November. Yesterday, a service was held for Rod at a church in Brentwood CA, where he lived. Near the end of the service, several of us got together to play some of Rod's...

vanny Hugs. I am not good at losing friends. I pride (extra) myself as very logical and pragmatic person. But losing a good friend...I can drown the town. Two of the dogs I used to feed are no longer in this world. At least, I believe that to be true since they have...

vanny The math is simple.... 10000 bucks ..15 percent per annum. Three years...so 10000 plus 4500 equals 14500. Divide that by 36 months. Around 403 per month. Sounds simple eh? It never is. This is straight line method for short term credit. Home loans are on...

Declining Lifespan?

SIDDI KIMPOLE @SIDIKIMPOLE (2702) • Eldoret, Kenya 27 Nov

Life’s such a phenomenon that is determined mostly by the length of years. Apart from diseases, accidents and disasters, each person is expected to live a certain number of years before passing away naturally. In Kenya, the span...

vanny I don't measure life in terms of lifespan. I could just be scrolling through some video on net...how is that living? I wouldn't want to live beyond seventy five. I wouldn't like others to be changing my diapers or giving me bed pan, even if I could pay for it....

The Great Rice Controversy.

The Horse @TheHorse (232930) • Walnut Creek, California 26 Nov

I read somewhere, it may even have been from a MyLotter, that cooked rice goes bad quickly. When I order Tom Kha Gai or Red Curry Chicken from my Thai place, I often keep the leftover rice in the fridge for future use. Future...

vanny I cook exactly as much as we can eat. It is very rare that we have some left over rice...very very rare. Then, I mix it the same day with some butter milk and feed the stray dogs....they are happy...any food is welcome.

It's Not Just a Coincidence....

celticeagle @celticeagle (183027) • Boise, Idaho 12 Nov

vanny I have never owned a cat, but I would love to own one, if possible, in future. Our building rules do not permit pets. That said, I do have favorite street dogs...there used to be 10 one died, and one was relocated. So now 8. Three of the girls....by...

This sir is causing stress

Xavier Bage @franxav (14339) • India 12 Nov

What did you have for brunch on this cloudy and dreary Wednesday?

The Horse @TheHorse (232930) • Walnut Creek, California 12 Nov

vanny Myth 1...dogs don't hurt each other...........they do....they are very insecure....about food as well as love...so if you show love to another dog in front of them, they had it....provided they are weaker of the two, by age, size...etc. 2. Dogs do tend to...

How come no reporters have asked Trump about what part of his body the MRI was conducted on?

The Horse @TheHorse (232930) • Walnut Creek, California 29 Oct

As we all know, Trump received an MRI at his recent visit to Walter Reed Medical Center. My question is: What part(s) of his body were scanned? Doctors do not give someone a random MRI. There have to be particular symptoms that...

Over a million US veterans will lose their SNAP benefits.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (52123) 30 Oct

I read this and it made me so sad. Put your life on the line to serve our country, and then the country will let you starve. Some of these vets are low income, some have PTSD, and some are disabled. This is just wrong! We also...
