Fun at Home

This painting, in my mind, is trying to show that in books comes knowledge. And with that knowledge great empires can be built. But let me say that the fall of many great peoples was not because of the lack of knowledge, but the lack of how to use that knowledge in accord with wisdom.      

In this picture painted by Rob Gonsalves  you will see how the artist magically captures the beauty of Autumn and Spring in the same frame.  

There once were three little pigs, who when they got old enough went out to build themselves each a little home near a lonely store in the country. The first little pig went to the store and bought a bunch of cardboard boxes (because he said it was the "easy way") and made him self a house. The second little pig went to the store and bought a bunch of pine 1x1s  (because he said it was fast and that pine was tough) and built him self a house purely out of those and nails. The third little pig went to the store, but it wasn't to buy, it was to work, he walked up to the clerk/owner, "I'd like to fill out an application to work at this store please"he said. The clerk answered "Sorry we don't have applications for people let alone pigs, but I can let you work for the day." So the pig was brought to the back and put to work.......... By about 6.00 p.m the first little pig had his house of cardboard up and running, the second little pig was

   "I wonder what it is?" Thought Jimmy as he spotted a little blue circle off in the water. His parents had told him not to go into the water, the water didn't look so deep, and this was his first time, so his parents would understand. I nstead of listening to his parents words, he started for the water. "Maybe I could bring it back to mom and dad to show that I'm big enough to go into the water." He thought. As he got closer he saw more of the blue circles. They moved. The little boy stuck his hand into the water and grabbed a hand full of the blue rings, they grabbed his arm with strong little tentacles. He screamed, then started to feel sick the. He saw what the blue ring were, they were the blue rings on a blue ringed octopus one of the most poisonous animals in the world. By disobeying his parents the last thing Jimmy heard was his mother calling for him. The last thing he ever saw were the terrifying blue rings of the octopus. And at that time,

"To arms" called Commander Cabbage as Captain Killer Corn Dog and his evil pizza minions stormed towards the gate. Rows upon rows: Cabbage, lettuce, turnips and even the little peas, all armed, made a semi circle around the inside of the gate. BAM! The giant cabbages put all their weight against the gate to hold back the minions, but even with all their strength it was splintering. Everyone backed away from the gate, weapons in hand. SMASH! The battle had begun. Captain Killer Corn Dog, smothered in ketchup, was the first in his army to even cut Commander Cabbage. The commander with dead pizza minions all around was shocked to see the evil corn dog dicing his men. Nearly too late he ducked as the corn dog's sword sped straight at him and sliced through his helmet so that it made a notch in his head. But cabbages are not deterred that easily, the commander swung his sword at his opponent and impaled the great corn dog but that was not enough to stop the Captain Killer Corn

Did you wake up this mourning to you stomach growling. Did you look in the fridge only to find a couple of uncooked potatoes and a stick of butter. Now all you need is a frying pan and your good to go. Put the pan on the stove to heat up, stick some butter on the pan and chop up the potatoes. By the time you have chopped the potatoes the pan should be heated and the butter is probably melted. Drop the potatoes in the pan and cook them all while stirring them and adding butter until they are brown and tender. Dump them onto a plate and they are be gone into your stomach minutes.
