I heard this the other day and was impressed. They really keep on rockin'. I'm not into sexy girls, but I liked the video with the billboards. They even had a shot of Hampton 1981. I have fond memories of that one- even though I didn't see it. I saw them at the New Orleans Superdome. It was a record breaking concert. My die hard Stones fan friend missed it and he was soooo jealous. BUT, the Stones did a last minute surprise gig in Hampton which he went to. They still rock. I'm sure they were AI enhanced for this new senior citizen album.

Here's a couple pics I snapped in the last couple of days. Took this pic Thursday morning: Blue isn't a fan of thunderstorms. He paused on the way out the door...for quite awhile! there's a Praying Mantis wanting to get inside! LOLIt's no wonder that Blue doesn't want to go outside with that critter in the doorway.

I had been using the free version of Comodo firewall for years. It went to a pay program. Before that, I had always used Zone Alarm, but it got too bulky and bogged me down sometimes. That was several years ago. I reinstalled it, hoping it has gotten better.
So what do you guys use of the three or another?

fernwood nice find. I may have posted this before, but here is a projectile point identification guide for the points that are found in Wisconsin. You can also search for other states, Canada and Central America. There is also a search function that will show photos of all the lithic material that was used. www.projectilepoints.net/Search/ASearch_Wisconsin.htmlwww.projectilepoints.net/I looked up the Fox Valley and it is a bifurcated point (ie., if you turn it stem side up it will have two ears which look similar to Micky Mouse ears). Rick, that database is huge! I just checked out the list for South Dakota...I never would have thought there were SO many!! Jason, just for fun, check out South Dakota's lithic materials that were used to make those points. They made points out of Fairburn agates and Bubble Gum agates.

Yes, that's what I see too. I can't count the growth rings as easily but they are discernable if the specimen is in your hand. Okay...so if that was a full limb...and the "tracks" are dung beetle tracks...how were the beetles able to make tracks through what I would think would be a solid piece of wood and not actual soft "dung" where I imagine most dung beetles are found? Could it be a wood boring beetle...or some wood boring insect as opposed to an actual dung beetle?Am I looking at it wrong? Woodpeckers did it

We postponed our trip near the SC coast this morning because of Hurricane Idalia which will pass very close to the campground we are going to. Will go there tomorrow afternoon right behind the storm. A few years ago we had a camper totaled when a pine tree fell over the front of it at 3:30am while we were inside it during a storm.

Nice addition to the family Jason. Looks like he's making himself at home and loving every minute of it.

Took this pic in the yard last night. I knew we were a bit dry this year...but it's the first time I've seen this kind of a crack in a while.
