You all can throw a kiss to my ginger if you don't have access to one!

Both links pop up with a pay wall - have to be a subscriber to view

Duhhh -  Of course they pop up for me OG I have a subscription.  Official dummy of the day award to me.  Does anyone have a get-around technique?

Puff, this is one of the great photos in your morning article. A bald eagle loses grip of its catch on the Mississippi River at Lock and Dam 18 near Gladstone, Illinois, on Jan. 21, 2022. (E. Jason Wambsgans / Chicago Tribune)



Good morning Beakers!
Hi Lilbro, Clynn, Tsk, Lisa, BL, Lori, Oldguy, Puff, Eagles, Kb, Tig, Baz, Phyl, Peep, Jaspurr, Pink, Jilltosa, Karen, Eburg, Weasel, Ezee, Bggolden, ssrl, Maxie, and All!

Puff, thanks for articles, there's a paywall, it's rare that I am able to move my arrow down page and ignore paywall request. I can't do that with Arizona, WP, NYT or Wall St articles.

Tig, fun concerts to look forward to! I'd go to the Stevie Nicks with Camper  ;D ... I hope all goes well at the dentist.

Tsk, Mike was promoted to run 4 plants this past early fall. Avon Lake, OH, Gila Bend, AZ, Austin, TX and Reserve, LA. He's busy retraining staff in Avon Lake, and all is well at the other three. His retirement date is April 2024.... Looks like you may be in an re-training program run by Lulu.  ;D

Phyl, the only way to ride a swing! Higher the better, I was a dare devil as a young Keiki.... good RRP blog, I'm mindful of that here.

Clynn, Love Harley's paw stretched out to you.... the potatoes! LOL!!!  ;D .. I was a swing jumper too. We marked where we landed as a contest. Teachers never said a peep.

{{{Hugs Lisa}}}

Eburg, Cool! Great moments  8)

Oldguy, Ginger Day! Happy to see it's a cat  ;D

Puff, I was able to ignore paywall and read article.

KB   Beautiful version of Danny Boy   Cute little guy  ;D

TIG  Safe driving and hope it is a productive visit with the dentist.  Lucky you with those tickets.

PUFF  Yes I was aware of that statistic.  What I meant was eagles in the Chicagoland area.

LANI   Great photo

Had to abort completing my previous post due to a certain cat... ::)

OLDGUY  Kiss a Ginger day  ;D  We had been looking at gingers to adopt but all were adopted by the time we got there.  Loved to find the calico.  You never see too many of them at shelters.  Good news coming out of California  :)

CLYNN   :-* :-* :-*to Harley.

PUFF  Sometimes disabling your ad blocker works.

LANI    LOLOL  That's for sure.  We have to learn the new game plan in this house   ;) ;)  End in sight for Mike - YAY

eburg - Great memories/story about the Yardbirds! According to one story I read, Clapton joined the band in 1963 and left in 1965. Beck joined in 1965 on the recommendation of Page. Page, himself, joined the band (and Beck) in 1966. 1966 was one of the great milestone years in all sorts of ways.  :)

Today is turning into a major outbreak for tornados in the south.  The biggest one at this time was at Selma Al..  -  debris was found 20 miles away, shortly after - radar is still showing that the debris from Selma is still moving at the top of the storm cell and currently 80+ miles away at 20K ft.  This line of storms is now approaching Atlanta Ga.

Latest info - the Selma tornado remained on the ground for 55 miles.

Puff, I was able to ignore paywall and read article.

I know about being blocked - just didn't  know it was off hands for these two items. Same always goes for mail pintrest and twitter.  If I see that I just ignore that post and go on to the next.  Yep, I do chose to live on totally without those, especially twitter.
