Japan: Greedy Big Business: Save Company Not Lives





From Denny:  Dragging into a one month crisis it is still unbelievable how TEPCO, Tokyo Electric Power Company, has the gall to continue placing the equivalent of band-aids on a life-threatening nuclear crisis. Today they threw wet concrete, newspaper shreddings, sawdust and sand onto an eight-inch crack where radiated water was leaking out into the ocean. Every decision made so far has been to try and save the nuclear reactors rather than entomb them in concrete, killing them - and the company's investment - forever.



Unexpected Treasures

Hi Everyone
Happy Weekend


Yesterday was one of those days that
was full of the unexpected
Our Son was suppose to have a Varsity baseball game but it got cancelled
and
There was an estate sale right around the corner from our house!!!


Yippee






There were cars lined up for blocks 
I really did not find much in the house but in the garage I found 
these amazing vintage aluminum treasures

12 Best of The Web Funny April Fools Day: Pranked, Spoofed and Trashed





From Denny: There are those among us - of a cheeky bent - who look forward to this one day a year when people forgive us for pranking them. Today the web was full of April Fool's Day fun from every angle, a real bumper crop of craziness!



1 - First up: Google leads the fun with their prank about their new feature of "motion-controlled" email. After all, typing on a keyboard is "so last century," right? And Google says it's also "outdated" and "inefficient."



"To open a message make a movement as if you were opening an envelope. To reply, simply point backward with your thumb," Google says in a video demonstration. More instructions? "To reply all, use both hands. To send a message, lick a stamp and place it down."



Well, you too can look like a complete fool by believing this satire and standing up in your office cubicle on Freaky Friday and get elected Fool Of The Day by using various body language to instruct your computer. It's like using cat body language to write an email. Hey, whatever floats your boat.
