Family Loses EVERYTHING in Late Night Fire

+Kari Tedrick called this to my attention. I can not even imagine running out of my home in the middle of the night with nothing but my briefs and watching as everything I own and all but one of my pets is burned to ash.

Thank goodness that all human lives were saved, but they have no insurance coming and have, quite literally, nothing. If you can do even a little, it would be greatly appreciated.

Please comment or ask questions on the original post. Kari is in touch with the family.

Please Help
Family of Five Loses Everything in Late Night Fire

After breaking down the bedroom door, she found her 12 yrd old asleep in his bed with the dresser next to him engulfed in flames.
No time to grab anything, no time to find the beloved pets, they made their way outside with barely a minute to spare.
Stacy is one of the kindest, warm-hearted women I know. She's never been on the recieving end and is not sure how to handle it. Her giving nature is bucking the process of asking for help, but I assure you, she needs it.
Fortunately, through the generosity of another, they have a furnished place to live, so the burden of finding beds, and sofas and such has been lifted.
Someone just gave her some towels, and they did salvage some pans from the fire. But really, that is all they have now. Some bath towels and some pots and pans.
Stacy is working on an Amazon Wish List and will be adding to it each day.
You can find it by searching for Stacy VanLoan or follow the link.

how do you do that? for National Poetry Month

+Amanda Rachelle Warren, for national poetry month, asked people to read aloud a poem on video and post it here to Google+ (http://goo.gl/KH9T7). How could I refuse someone so passionate about poetry? #pocketpoem

how do you do that?

a gaze
a glitter
sparkling
spies
my inner
thoughts
before you
lie
I race
to cover
an undressed
thought
my heart
a flitter
my mouth
gone dry
I've not said
a single
word
and yet
there's nothing
you've
not learned

Favorite Line of the day!

When I hear or read a statement that just absolutely takes the prize for the day, then it goes in the stream! Oh yeah, and none of that confusing context to get in the way. 😉

Line of the day is from +Roger Murley and goes a little something like this:

Forever shall this day live in infamy as the day that I took a dump while watching some guy sing South Park songs because +Scott Cramer tagged me in a comment.

I Sold the Arabs the Moon by David Lowery

Front man of Camper Van Beethoven and Cracker doing his own thing. This is totally a late night chill (me) song or a Sunday morning after a long night coffee house song.

Darn Birds

When life gives you bird poo, make a Rorschach test. I see a zombie elephant, a cocoa puff covered in sausage gravy, and a demon head emerging from a marshmallow.

How about you my fellow sleepless (or alternate timezone) G+ friends?

Red Shirted Elephants?

Okay, so it has nothing to do with elephants in red shirts. It still cracked me up this morning. Yes, yes I am still groggy… but it's still funny, darn it! 😉

Thanks +Paul Clayton Smith for the morning chuckle!

Geeks and Repetitive Tasks

This is so true. What's awful, is that I find myself allowing repetitive tasks for users that I manage go on for a long time. As soon as I have to cover for them or sit down to troubleshoot what they are doing, THEN I want to automate the task so I don't have to deal with it. It's definitely a case where squeaky wheels win in my world. 😉

Thanks +Mike Clancy for the share and +TECHNICS ? for the post!

Retro Cover Art

What is the age range these days that remembers actual cover art for albums?

Please comment back on Gary's original post. 🙂

Thanks +Gary Westmoreland for the post!

Reshared post from +Gary Westmoreland

OK, peeps, let's see if we can get a discussion going.
In this age of digital music album covers are a dying breed so I thought I'd share my favourite (it's a kick ass album musically too) – Def Leppard's Retro Active.

What yours?

Painting in Progress

If you are not following +Eduardo Rodriguez Calzado, you should check him out. I love his paintings, but not only that, he posts updates from inception to final piece of art. This post of his is from a few days back so I imagine final updates are coming soon.

Also, on June 7th, he has a show coming up in San Antonio, Texas. Economy willing, I'd love to make it out there. It would be even better to see some of you peeps at the same time. 🙂
