Some good listening to get you into the season



I just bought a collection of classic Christmas stories on MP3. You can buy it on Audible.com

It is over 5hours of great listening. Now I'm going to grab a cup of tea and turn on my new electric fireplace and listen to a Christmas Carol! Juergen put up the lights. The gifts are all wrapped. I'm getting ready to enjoy the season!!! No stress!

  • "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Read by Tom Casaletto
  • "The Gift of the Magic" by O. Henry, Read by Dick Hill
  • "Is There a Santa Claus? (Yes, Virginia...)" by Frank P. Church, Read by J. Charles
  • "A Visit from Saint Nicholas ('Twas the Night Before Christmas)" by Clement C. Moore, Read by Bill Weideman
  • "A Winter Walk" by Henry David Thoreau, Read by Jean Reed-Bahle
  • "The Seven Poor Travelers" by Charles Dickens, Read by Michael Page
  • "The Fir Tree" by Hans Christian Andersen, Read by Sandra Burr
  • "Santa Claus at Simpson's Bar" by Bret Harte, Read by Robert Lawrence
  • "What Christmas Is As We Grow Older" by Charles Dickens, Read by Buck Schirner


    • PS. This would be great if you have to be in the car allot, or plan on taking a long drive. Also, you are legally able to burn 8 copies of the books you buy on audible.com. If you are short on cash, you can buy one good book and make copies to give to friends.

    Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
