Hundreds of birds die in western Ky.

Hi Abeliever my dad's doing well thanks, as am I. I hope the same goes for you!

He is now in the rehab place. For some reason they wanted to keep a cathater plugged in, and he didn't like that. He asked one of the nurses how she would like it up her nose. She left the room fairly quickly and must've talked to a doctor. A few minutes later she returned and removed it.

Hello Everybody!
For those of you that trave I65 south of
E-town check this out. South of mile marker 81 north of mm 53 on the west side of the big road there are several sink holes vislble.
All within a few hundred yards of the hiway.
I wish I could be more exact on the location but can't remember. It could be a bit further south.
I don't believe they were there prior to June 2011. Since september I believe more have appeared. Since that is in the cave arrea it's no big deal, other than being so close to the big road...TBC

I used to do some work over in the cave city area north of bowlingreen.there's always been sinkholes in that area. mostly because of the caves you mentioned. ky is actually one big cave system. seen one sinkhole in a parking lot next to ky fried chicken with a car in it. this was back in the 80's. also talked with local farmers that had incidents with even cattle falling through them. but seems like there's alot more lately and more often. maybe it's not the earth sinking, I myself think the sky is falling !!!

86 is glendale, 81 is sonora, 76 is upton, 67 is bonnieville, i think 53 is munfordville.

i also travel down 224 east which goes all the way out to grayson county from upton. you are right, there are sinkholes everywhere. they open up all the time. that part in particular is over the under ground river part of nolin and mammoth cave, whichs runs all the way to the hardin spring area, also gets alot of sinkholes. my aunt and uncle live in hardin springs and they have been throwing old cat litter down the same sink hole for fifteen years. that whole area, greyson, hardin, larue, hart, is prone to them. i cant say i have seen an increase but i can say there is an abundance of them. scary

[betty]

i will try and remember to look in the morning on the way to work. i usually take 31w south cause i cant stand the highway, plus stretch between sonora and upton is a death trap, seriously, who decided to put that many curbs in an interstate in a two mile stretch. but i can just as easily go that way, will just have to make sure carrie underwood is on so jesus can take the wheel.

Most certainly not, hehe. If I was high level anything at all, I can assure you that I'd not have this stack of medical bills sitting here freaking me out right now, honey. No, I'm not 'high level' anything, unless being a realist is on that list of 'levels'. Well, on second thought, perhaps I'm high level medical maintenance. I'd imagine that's why my medical insurance is pure crap and so outrageously reliable for not covering jack squat.
<<wink wink>>

OH, and whoever it was that asked about my new eye: I bore easily and change it often. But you know that already, LOL! Unless I suppose there's another Illuminati conspiracy at play here on my part, right?? Have mercy....
(What out, Rapid. I THINK I DO have a florescent green one in my files somewhere, hehe)!!
<<wink wink again>>

Glad to hear your dear Dad is okay, Blue. And to everyone else, so nice to read your updates as always!!

AB, I see what you mean about those negative judge its. Not hard at all to figure out who it is that comes in here doing it. You just have to be watchful for a few days and you've got them pegged. Oh well, such a waste of time chasing people around like that.

Once more and in case no one has told you lately, you're ALL appreciated!! I'm going to log off again now. I'm getting tired after just having a marvelous dinner and cleaning up afterward!! Grilled a steak outside with asparagus and a side of roasted portobello mushrooms and onions. Even had a bite of dessert. YUM!! All these critters that the Lord gave me to care for and love are cozy and happy with full tummies too. So God bless and keep you all safe and warm until we chat again!!

<quoted text> thanks for the feedback . I have another question. as abeliever stated the space preservation act of 2001 laws protect us from our selves. what is protecting us from another country sending a couple of EMP's off a cargoship (for example) into our atmosphere and taking out all our satalites, which in turn would take out our power grids,computer systems,ect. It would send us back to the stone age seems to me.

the only thing preventing nuclear/EMP attack is MAD...Mutually Assured Destruction

I'm still butt hurt because my friend isn't here anymore. Nope..(NOT YOU TOOTS)..he's not arse deep in Scottsville anymore....although his arse may be six foot deep down there now, I suppose.
He was a short time here and a long time gone, same as the rest of us will be soon enough.
I bet he would have been a fun guy to work with, if a man stayed up wind. He sure was a fun guy to read on here.
Here's to you Una, you old fart.

Generation X am I! The restless ones, forever searching for the promise...The promise of utopia? Sometimes in my dreams I reach the gates and my spirit gives rise, and just as I move to enter...Oh!crap the sound of daylight, d@mn!

Why does night last forever and time slows, the agony waiting for sleep to come, and then as it appears, in comes the sun.

I love you sun! Your like a father to me, your rays
strengthen me for what work lays ahead, but
afternoon is a plague to me, my eyes get heavy what game are you playing? Not now! Not now! Tonight! Tonight!
"I cry"!

I must admit it's evening that stirs my soul, and the old traveling urge arrives, that distant train whistle, makes me what to run, but my youth is gone..My youth.is gone!

So I settle back and watch as the clouds all puffed, and toasted orange sink slowly behind the mountains Oh! Evening your are hard to beat!
I do love you so!

Generation X the things I've gave witness to, are forever etched in my soul!
Modern miracles creations of man! Yet no UTOPIA?
Why?
The promise no one recall? Night is here the creatures are begin to stir, causing one imagination to heighten!!!
Maybe this will be the night sleep will come...my dreams will carry me...to my utopia!

PEACE,LOVE AND HAPPINESS!

have to agree ; una was funny. made me laugh alot. will miss his lines.

[this ones for you]

I took shelter in a small cave, way back in the mountains, so far away you could hear no sound of the civilized world.

Wind gentle making tree limbs tremble as if they were
nervous. Perhaps they were?
I built a small fire and the cave was warm and peace came over me.

I looked at he walls of the cave and wondered who was here before I? I began to play, I took my bowie knife and stabbed the dirt around me...And shockingly something flip up from the ground, I wish I could have seen my face?

Arrowhead!.shaped to perfection, Sharpe after how long? Proud was I to hold such a work of art! Wow! Could I do that I thought? As I ready for bed, a quick peek outside to check the weather.

A light snow fell with tenderness through the pines, but I was warm and sleep came to me, happiness in the simplest form!

Just a man, in a cave, with fire! And his prize arrowhead a gift from the ancient ones, for my the LOVE of the world, as it should be!

PEACE

With your mind focused on melting your cheese, toast should be quite lucrative. In fact, with soup urging you on, you can get quite a bit accomplished, if your friends don't persuade you to order out instead! Set your priorities so that once you have eaten your bowls you can relax and enjoy the company of your favorite people.

So I will leave some stories and cute videos to entertain the tree times and insomnia. This one is for AW and anyone else who thinks they are up in age. Ignore Arthur, age is not important unless you are wine or cheese. hahaha

Take that, midlife crisis: Study says 72 is the new 30

Great news for the aging-obsessed among us: 72 is the new 30. The Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research in Germany concluded in a new study that humans have gotten so good at lowering the odds of dying that our average life expectancy has risen faster in the past 100 years than it did in the previous 200,000. The researchers looked at Swedish and Japanese men and concluded that these modern humans had the same odds of dying at age 72 that early hunter-gatherers had at 30. The study doesn't discuss how human society might pay for its aging population, or give any suggestions of what to do if you don't live in Sweden or Japan, but it’s still an impressive new benchmark.[Source]
