These are Timberline Shakewood shingles, 50 year warranty, installed 2016. But the tree has really grown, and moss has spread. Is this a job for Wet-and-Forget, or is it time for replacement, or do you have a guess on how long before replacement?
“No, John”, says his wife with a big sigh, “I’m not having an affair with an air traffic controller. If I’ve told you once, I’ve told you niner-niner times.”
Looking west, sliver of the moon, and two planets. Otherworldly..
Anyone know what planets?
Soon a guy in a rowboat comes by and shouts, "Jump in!"
“No thanks”, says Tommy, "I'm praying to God to save me."
So the fellow rows on.
A while later a guy driving a motorboat comes by and “Jump in!”
“No thanks”, says Tommy, "I'm praying to God to save me."
So the fellow drives on.
A while later a helicopter flys by, and the pilot leans out and throws down a rope, saying "Grab on!"
“No thanks”, says Tommy, "I'm praying to God to save me."
So the fellow flies away.
Soon the water rises above the rooftop and Tommy drowns and finds himself standing before God. “My Lord,” he asks, “I believed in you so much, and prayed for you to save me, but you let me drown. Why?”
God shakes his head and says, "Tommy, I sent you a rowboat, I sent you a motorboat, I sent you a helicopter...”
I told her to make up her mind.
Anyone know why these robins built three nests side by side on our porch? They spent a couple weeks at it. I saw them sitting in all three from time to time. Then a few days ago they seemed to settle on the middle one. They stare at us accusingly when we go in and out of the house, but otherwise ignore us.
Three nests seems like a lot of work. I'm no math major, but that's like... almost three times as much work as one nest. Is this normal behavior?
(Pic not taken with telephoto lens because, well its on our front porch)
Update on the triplex the robins built on our porch. They seem to have moved into the middle unit. The one in the nest stares at us accusingly when we use the front door, but otherwise ignores us. Very cute.
The last few days they went nuts, and built three nests side by side in our porch. We've seen them fly into and make sitting on egg motions on the one on the left and on the right.
Maybe some enterprising head robin is renting them out? Any bird people know what is going on here?
We are going to try and disturb them as little as possible, but kind of have to use the door and walk under them once in a while. Hope they get used to us.
It’s a very small scale operation.
just to make myself sound a bit more photosynthesis.
Then everyone will be sorry.
Bah dum tsssss….
Mutant: Hindsight!
Professor X: Well that's not going to help us at all.
Mutant: Yes, I can see that now.
Then... it dawned on me.
It's just holding me back.
But she said they were all booked.
I blame myshelf.
First alien: "Hmmm, the life forms on planet Earth have developed nuclear weapons."
Second alien: "Are they an emerging intelligence?"
First alien: "I don't think so. They’re aimed at themselves."
