How long do goldfish live?

Goldfish can live a pretty long time. The average lifespan
is about ten years, but the oldest known goldfish on record
allegedly lived to the ripe old age of 43! Koi, cousin to
the goldfish, can live from 50 to over 100 years! Some
reports even have koi living more than 200 years, being
passed from generation to generation. 

How can you tell how old a fish is?

You can "age" a fish in a way similar to how you "age" a
tree. You look at growth "rings" on scales or at ringlike
structures found in the small bones of the inner ear. The
rings correspond to seasonal changes in the environment.

Here's To Think On . . . with Ken Darby
-----------------


You Gotta Love'em Anyway!


On their anniversary, Bob took Cathy out to dinner. Their 4
daughters said they'd have dessert waiting for them when we
returned.

After they got home, we saw that the dining room table was
beautifully set with china, crystal and candles, and there
was a note that read: "Your dessert is in the refrigerator.
We are staying with friends, so go ahead and do something we
wouldn't do!"

"I suppose," Bob responded, "we could do the dishes."


Wow! Isn't that the truth?

But, you have to love them anyway. Their heart was in the
right place concerning the anniversary gift. It just doesn't
extend far enough to cover regular daily tasks, like doing
the dishes.

It probably doesn't extend to cleaning their rooms, either.
Boy, can that be frustrating. I wonder, sometimes, how these
kids will ever run their own homes and their own lives.

It is an unfortunate truth that when you are sloppy in one
task, you are sloppy in others. A friend of mine has a
saying, "The way you do anything is the way you do
everything."

I can believe that. At one time I spent quite a number of
years in the real estate business. I used to insist my sales
people keep their cars clean, including the back seats etc.
Whenever you look into someone's car you can tell
immediately how they run their lives. The messy ones look
after their business in a similar fashion.

I was disappointed the other day to learn that a woman
daughter of a friend, now age fifty, kept her bedroom,
today, just as she did as when she was a teen. There were
clothes all over the floor. No idea which of them were
clean, when they were worn last etc. Can you imagine trying
to keep the wrinkles out? Yet this woman is now over fifty.

You realize none of this matters to me. Folks can live their
lives as they wish. What I am trying to say is you broadcast
who and what you are by the way you conduct your life. If
you are sloppy in one area you are sloppy in others.

So when the kids find it difficult, at age fifteen, to do
boring, everyday household chores, when will they learn. Is
there some magic line they cross at age sixteen? And can
they run their own households that way?

Yet always remember - - -

You Gotta Love'em Anyway!

Cleaning, Disinfecting, and Sterilizing…
A Few Basic Essentials To Keep In Mind
PART 9 of 12

In most work places, every chemical including some
office supplies have what are called Material Safety
Data SheetMSDS sheets. The western world acknowledges
that chemicals are harmful and has forced manufacturers
to write specific details about every product they
make. These instructions outline possible harmful
effects or ingredients. They also note how to get
immediate help. In hospitals, every cleaning product,
disinfectant, and sterilant has to have one of these
sheets. It’s a pity that the law doesn’t extend to
these kind of products people’s homes! Get rid of the
practice of putting linseed oil into a pop bottle, and
storing it in your workshop or garage. Stop borrowing
cleaners from your neighbour in coffee cans. It’s
foolish and dangerous! Your children watch you doing
this and copy your example. Get rid of all empty
containers. Recycle them, but get them out of your
home.

And don’t mix any chemicals. The company would have
done it for you if they felt it was helpful. Two people
in my community died within days of each other by doing
this. What if you do run into a problem and you suspect
it’s the cleaner? Open a window. This helps you to
breathe fresh air. That will also “dilute” the amount
of chemicals you are inhaling.

PERCEPTIONS . . . by Ken Darby

-----------------------DISCLAIMER

Some around me think I am an opinionated old goat.
Whether that be true or not I will sometimes, in this column,
talk about things people don't like to talk about - or don't want
out in the open. Take it all with a grain of salt.

Do your own thinking, and don't accept the things I say as
gospel. They are only mental meanderings from a simple soul.

-----------------------END DISCLAIMER


It seems European governments are alarmed at the increase in
the use of cocaine in Europe. They represent one quarter of
the world's users. The problem is hitting the well to do,
those with money. The same report warned against the use of
cannabis, stating that in recent years cannabis has become
stronger and is leaving a trail of mental illnesses behind
at least as great as other drugs.

Sweden has jailed a man for circumcising his 13 year old
daughter. The practice is a "traditional" practice in some
parts of Africa.

There have been more deaths in Brazil where there were
attacks against the police.

A judge threatened to jail Boy George and J K Rowling won't
give the date for the last, number seven, issue of Harry
Potter.

So you can see the world is a continually boiling pot of
stew. Round and round, up and down, in and out we go.
Sometimes I wonder if things will ever settle down to where
a person can live a predictable, stable life.

Have a good one.

WHY DO WE SAY IT?



Jazz: Where does the wor "jazz" come from?

The word comes to us from Creole French - by way of the
minstrel show dandy who carried a cane and wore spats, "Mr.
Jasbo." In Creole French a "dandy" is called a chasse beaux
- or a "beaux chaser" - because he's so attractive that he
chases all the other beaux away. The syncopated music we now
call "jazz" was used in the "cakewalk" - a form of of
competition for these "beaux" at box socials. Minstrel shows
adopted the character, the dance, the music, the name of the
dance and the name chasse beaux for the competitors - but,
not knowing French, spelled the latter, "Jassbo," "Jasbo"
and "Jazzbo". The vulgar meaning of the term has its origin
in another characteristic of the original beaux.

THINK ABOUT THIS TODAY!


"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the
grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water,
or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly
a waste of time." -- Sir John Lubbock

HA! HA! HA!



A guy goes to a girl's house for the first time, and she
shows him into the living room. She excuses herself to go to
the kitchen to make them a few drinks, and as he's standing
there alone, he notices a cute little vase on the mantel.

He picks it up, and as he's looking at it, she walks back
in. He says "What's this?"

She says, "Oh, my father's ashes are in there."

He goes, "Geez...oooh....I..."

She says, "Yeah, he's too lazy to go to the kitchen to get
an ashtray."
