TONIGHT…..BLOG TALK RADIO

Posted on by

 

The weeks roll by. Another tuesday has arrived. Tonight my blog talk radio show.

Tuesday Talk with Key West Lou is at 9. www.blogtalkradio.com/key-west-lou. Join me for some interesting chatter.

Tonight, I would be remiss if I did not comment on Senator McCain’s surprise visit to Syria yesterday. He came in over the border. The intimation was he snuck in. To visit with rebel leaders.

Another topic I intend to discuss involves what I term the hypocrisy of the Catholic Church. Certain facts I will be sharing with you will open your eyes wide. Your first inclination will be to say….. No way!

Of course, I am happy to discuss any other issues which may be of concern to you. Merely call in and tell me.

I spent a part of yesterday doing something I absolutely dislike. Paying bills. My whole life it has bothered me. When not balancing the check book, I was researching for this evening’s show as well as friday’s Key West Lou Legal Hour.

The weather was threatening all day. Rain off and on. When on, heavy. Some thunder and lightning.

Downtown Key West was quiet last night. Most tourists had left for home.

Dee’s cousin Gloria was in from some town north of Fort Lauderdale. I joined them for drinks and dinner. The Chart Room and Hot Tin Roof.

I was home in bed by 9. Slept well.

I woke in the middle of the night to see Senator McCain on television. All smiles, surrounded by rebel Syrian forces. Dramatic. Impressive. Stupid. He should remain in Washington where he belongs.

Enjoy your day!

 

CRAZY ANTS

Posted on by

 

How many of us have said on occasion…..I hate fire ants! What with the intolerable itch and puss heads.

The fire ant may not be long for the Florida keys. The crazy ant is coming. It totally eliminates the red ant. The red ant is no more when the crazy ant arrives. The question is whether the crazy ant will migrate to Florida.

Maybe.

The crazy ant is from South America. It got to the United States on ships, in people’s clothing, etc. It likes neither cold nor dry. The dry may save our butts. The crazy ant is presently in Georgia and Alabama in the southeast.

Whereas the fire ant bit humans big time, the crazy ant does not physically bother humans. It will get into our homes, however. In the walls. Eat our electrical wires.

The crazy ants move in large swarms.

The crazy ants are expensive to eradicate from one’s property. The pest control person becomes your best friend. About every three months, he is needed to get rid of the most recent infestation.

Which is better? The fire ant or crazy ant? Until the crazy ant arrives, we will not know. From what I understand, the fire ant will have been a picnic. We will regret its departure.

One last crazy ant observation. Jeff Zucker is an ant expert. The scientist stated in a recent article that the crazy ant is the “…..single most difficult ant to control in the southeast.”

Man cannot win.

I enjoyed a unique experience last night. I was not that hungry. Stopped into the Hot Tin Roof. Ordered six oysters. I have not had oysters in years. When I finished the first six, I ordered another six.

That good! Big and juicy!

Stopped into the Chart Room first. Emily, Peter and Jean Thornton there. Plus four strangers. English friends John and Ali stopped in to say hello.

Apparently the Chart Room never closed down. A good thing!

Many employees have been let go and replaced. From what I understand, the whole security team, except for one. The parking lot attendant. Top echelon, of course. And others.

Began my yesterday with the Key West Lou Legal Hour. My tv/internet show. Went well.

Post show comment indicated two topics garnered the most interest.

The first was Benghazi. I did not get into the details. We have heard them repeated for months. I conveyed a simple observation. Twenty 6 year olds were killed in Newtown. Four Americans in Benghazi. Congress has spent significant time arguing Benghazi’s event. Little regarding Newtown. They even failed to vote for a new and simple gun control law.

Our politicians’ priorities are screwed up!

The other involved Syria. Whether government or rebel forces, they are crazy. Both sides behead. Assad’s group gang rape rebel  2-11 year olds.

I made mention of the film wh ich was all overthe internet this week. The video of a rebel leader cutting the heart out of an enemy soldier and eating it. While the crowd behind him shouted in their language…..God is Great!

My point. These are crazy people. Let us not get involved. They have been killing each other for hundreds of years. They are different from us, have different values.

In my opinion, Syria is not worth one American life.

Grocery shopped after the show. I always seem to be grocery shopping.

I spent most of the afternoon writing next week’s column for KONK Life. Stay Out Of Syria. Basically consistent with my comments made earlier in the day.

My tv/internet show is You Tubed. It has also been recorded and will run at 4:30 today on Comcast Channel 87 and U-Verse Channel 19.

Enjoy your day!
