forsythkid

I am just a simple man with a head full of sand who is currently residing in a small town called Forsyth Missouri. I enjoy hiking, camping and all things related to gardening. I rec’d my degree from SIU majoring in Biology many moons ago and still maintain a great interest in the study of all living things. My hobbies include meteorology, the Finnish language and inhabiting cyberspace whenever possible.

A Gorton fish stick meal for us dieters!

I can’t say for sure why I’m even writing about eating fish sticks as part of my diet plan. Perhaps it’s that I find the two words funny. Ah, fish sticks! Much like the word ‘salsa’ – you say them and they can invoke a small chuckle.  Surprisingly there is also a bit of interesting … Continue reading »

On the very edge of a war with Iran

It seems that there now exists a new item to add to that which is certain to happen to us all; death, taxes and… war with Iran! And, while I’m not sure which country will initiate the war, I’m pretty sure I can tell you who will finish it.  Like a match tossed into a … Continue reading »

Re-Tracing Boone’s Trail

I recently came across another softbound book written by my step grandfather, Russell Carter back in 1978. I hope to include a section or two, in future posts, of this most interesting look of a time in our country when it was fresh and new. Following is the introduction: Introduction By Clara Smith Reber Church … Continue reading »

Is our President a loon?

In the last stages of WWII, as a devastated Germany waited for the end to come, Hitler sat at his desk inventing ‘miracle weapons’ that would save his Reich at the last moment. Is that what’s happening here in the US right now? As the United States edges ever closer to the economic cliff of … Continue reading »

Let’s all get off Ron Paul’s back in regards to Iran!

Last night during the debate in Arizona which was sponsored by CNN, Ron Paul continued with his policy of consistency. When asked about Iran’s intent on bomb making, Paul responded. ‘”We don’t know if they have a weapon. As a matter of fact, there’s no evidence that they have it.” The International Atomic Energy Agency … Continue reading »

Mr. President! What part of no…

Tightening up on discarded waste!

A few days ago, I wrote a post concerning how much throwing stuff out drives me crazy. A friend of mine heard me talking about this and cautioned me to be careful. She said that’s the way many people who become ‘hoarders’ start out. I told her that I remembered a show done on South … Continue reading »

Reheated pizza and my path towards the Matrix!

Cypher: You know, I know this steak doesn’t exist. I know that when I put it in my mouth, the Matrix is telling my brain that it is juicy and delicious. After nine years, you know what I realize? [Takes a bite of steak] Cypher : Ignorance is bliss.  —————————- It is a fact of … Continue reading »

Could Global Warming have hidden benefits for northern states?

This morning while enjoying a nice hot cup of soup with the mercury outside reading in the eighties, I had a bout of epiphany. At first I wondered if I was suffering form some sort of mental seizure, but no it was one of those moments when my mind took a leap and then a … Continue reading »

Sorry, but that dog just won’t hunt! Cuz it’s dead!

I love listening to dyed-in-the-wool hyper left-wing Democrats who look with hungry eyes to the corporate owners who seem to be so damn rich! Their universal complaint is, “how cum they make so much money? Why, that’s downright greedy. They should be spreading that wealth around!”  This, by the way, is the mantra of the … Continue reading »
