Talking MY INNER VOICE

I had a strange event happen this morning
i thought i'd share with ya...all

kinda cool really... i'm diggin it...

i've been telling you i'm a clairvoyant,,,
and I'm sure some of you have your doubts...
but i however absolutely ->do not have any doubt

last week my wife was driving home and spied a cage
on the side of the road ...and being the ultra practical
person she is decided to grab it for baby ducks for the new
farm.... and when she arrived home that evening, she says to me
"check out the cool free duck cage i got..."

so i thought "more stuff to pack".... lol and took it out
of her car and put it in MY caravan real quick to get it
out of her car. The caravan needed brakes so it was a good
a spot as any.

so then this morning we were taking BOTH cars to the auto repair place
to drop mine off for brake work and i look inside and see the duck cage.
-> right then i decided to open the hatch back and take it out.

so i open the hatch back and as soon as i touched it....wham
my inner voice spoke to me....and i have learned to listen to it
over the last 40 years ok.... (it's taken that long to heed it's message)
B-cuz i know......................... it knows something i don't!!!!!!

it said : don't take it out ...your gonna need it....
and i thought ...no way dude ......... this sucka is outta here...thinking
so i grab it again... and start to haul it out
and WHAM even a stronger message....
NO you need it ...leave it be!!!

so i have learned to trust my intuition explicitly....and off we both went..
well i didn't even make it a tenth of a mile....when i see this DUCK sitting
in the middle of a dirt parking lot... WTF very odd behavoir i thought and went imediately to investigate this rare occurance...

and sure enough the duck was injured and basically had quit...trying to walk
so i grabbed the duck and put him the duck cage ....turned around and took him to our garden where its nice and cool...gave it water and bread and shade so it wouldn't get attacked by dogs...in the neighborhood..

this in a NUTSHELL is how my life goes.....it seems i am some kind of recipient of divine intervention or special knowledge via channeling...
Extra sensory perception , paranormal phenomenon.... what ever you choose to call it... and it happens often enough that i play along now.

Good going for you Raven, you saved that poor duck from dying a horrible death. But I have one other question for you ... uh, what does you're intuition say about the next Powerball numbers? I won't tell anyone, I promise!

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.

heh heh heh

i dont think they can chew thru the wire....to get it...Scott

it will be released tomorrow into a gentle pond with other ducks..

i know i would have felt bad driving by and seeing the parking lot full of feathers when i could have prevented it...

it's always nice to do a good deed... and i believe the good karma will return ten fold .

Teaser - i only wish

it worked that way....

my premonition capabilities don't seem to function when it comes to gambling..... which kinda blows....

and i always use the analogy....that it's not like a light switch that you flick on to shed light on a subject...


it's more like.... there's nothing there to begin with....

then suddenly you become flooded with an idea or gut feeling
that's so unmistakable that you have to act upon it............

It's been said that

all living things on this Planet are connected. The older that I get the more that I believe that. And that the conceit of we humans prevents us from hearing the other living things. Watch a family of wild animals and you'll see that they communicate without a sound. Sometimes without even seing one another. We have feral cats around our house. The Mother "talks " to her kittens without a whisper and with a sound. If she's on the hunt, the kittens are almost tameable. But if she's near they shy away. Same with other animals. And plants. Plants are sensitive to bad vibes. ANd houseplants, spoken to nicely, do better than those which are not. All very good reason to show some respect...

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

i have shot hundreds of ducks

and can crank their necks with the best of them

you might try duck eggs sometime too...

the egg yokes are bright orange

and after eating them they are so rich

you fall asleep fast

much more easier than after eating turkey.

this spring i will have my own wood ducks eggs
that i will hatch in an
incubator...and i will be the mommy duck.... can't wait !!!

teaser that'll not only be my pleasure but it's what i live for....


i may start early ..instead of next spring because "THEN"
my duck "bug patrol" will be 1 year old instead of ducklings

the idea is: and i have done this before...ok
you go into the garden and flip over boards lying on the paths...
under them are all the nasty bugs and some worms too
i call them my "duck boards" and my brood will clean up

and that will be terrific...

i have to do some more research on the breeds first before
i jump into it... heavilly...

it' will be fun going kayaking with a flock of ducks following me around
and people will be wondering WTF scratching there heads...
hahahahahaha
