What about inventing some sort of contraption where we could HARNESS the power of the cow fart. We could pipe it and use it for all sorts. Harnessing a new energy. God I've just had a "Dragons Den" moment. Cheap fuel for all!! I'm picturing some sort of hose thing, attached to the rump (Rump..... Mmmmmm). And it goes straight into a canister. Methane trapped. Bingo!!!

whoa...decisions...continue listening to the Doctor Sleep excerpt...or farting cows...Doctor Sleep...farting cows...

...you know what's scairy is that before I read Doctor Sleep, I heard this old buck say "nothing ventured, nothing gained"...I mean he's like almost 90. Moved this porch down to Dollar Bay on a trailer...spooky. The same expression is used in the excerpt and I took note of it when I did actually read the story.

I came across a stack of the Congressional Record in this old shack I purchased with an eye toward winter-work, remodel. From the 30s, the Record, and it was used to insulate the attic of the shack...mouse-eaten and yellowed...it did make for curious reading, members lamenting the "chain-store evil" and what could be done, much as we lament Walmart today, only back in their day, it was Montgomery Ward and Sears Roebuck...or the way that gov't agents started a fire that got out of control, property owners seeking reparation...or the farmers down in Florida, seeking same, when gov't agents tore up their land and crop, looking for an elusive bug. I put it in my basement, the Record, figuring heat rises. But from time to time, I hear this strange thumping down below...figure it is a part on the furnace...but who's to know? Who's to know?
