United Paws Kittens of the Week

Submitted By: unitedpawshelp@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
United Paws Kittens of the Week:
Tobi, Murphy & Chip

These three kittens are from the same litter and have had a wonderful beginning to their lives. Happy, healthy, full of kitten antics, they are about 12 weeks old and ready for their forever homes.

Tobi, aka Tobias, is a handsome tuxedo with a white blaze and white paws. His fosters describe him as “a gentle giant.” He is the biggest in the litter of five and has become a snuggle bug. He can be shy at first but warms up quickly after some gentle pets and kind words. Soon, Tobi will want to be close to you when he’s relaxing. Basically, Tobi is a sweetheart.

Murphy, or sometimes Miss Murphy, is white with very interesting black patches. She is inquisitive and smart, and especially interested in crunchy balls to play with. She is the social one in her litter, but she also has a chill personality. Miss Murphy will sit by you and play with her toys, and she communicates very well, pawing or meowing sweetly at you when she wants your attention.

Chip, formally known as Chocolate Chip, is a brown & black tabby with a light muzzle & a white chest. He is a sweet lovable boy and curious to know what’s going on in the world. At times, he likes to cuddle with blankets, “making biscuits” on them while he gets comfortable. Chip loves to be talked to and he will give you the look of adoration as he listens to you.

All three are spayed / neutered, vaccinated, cat box trained, and ready to be chipped with a permanent address. They have not been around dogs or introduced to other cats besides their Mama and other siblings, but they have adaptable personalities. They are used to a household with children and active family life.

If interested in these kittens, together or separately, fill out an adoption form on United Paws web site or call 503-842-5663. Or click this link for the adoption application.

Must be 21 years or older to adopt through United Paws.

Submitted By: carl@alittlecolor.com – Click to email about this post
1986 Lavro drift boat in excellent condition. 16ft, 3″ (considered a 17′ as measured around the gunnels).
These boats are hand-laid fiberglass and are tough as nails. This one is well cared for and garage-kept. The bottom is not gouged, the boat looks great, and everything works as it should (see pictures).
Rear dry locker. New Cataract counterbalanced oars/blades, a new Clackacraft anchor nest and new 30lb Pyramid anchor. (Currently bow-mounted, also comes with rear/side anchor pulley option, not shown) New rope seats.
Solid, Galvanized EZ Loader trailer with new (in box) LED light kit and and an extra pair of brand new galvanized wheels with mounted tires. Clean Oregon title, with current tags.
All of the above w/o motor: $4200
With 2017 Yamaha F8 long-shaft Four Stroke (only 38 hrs on motor! Starts first pull),
tiller mounted gear selector, and Clackacraft prop guard
= $5,400 boat and motor.
I will sell the boat without the motor, but not the motor without the boat.
Thanks,
Carl in Wheeler

GENERAL INTEREST

Submitted By: tevisdiii@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Thank you Chuck and Barbara for continuing your valuable work to provide our community with the BBQ, which has now grown into what Chuck imagined it could be; a village green where anyone is free to share, announce, advocate, persuade, dissuade, advise, report on and opine about local and global events. This venue for expression is unique and anyone who visits it regularly can take the pulse of our tri-city community and find out “what’s going on”.
Regarding discord from “political” discourse, I would say that almost anything can be considered political. It is just a word basket we throw ideas and opinions into w’ed rather not discuss for fear of exposure to new ideas, vested interests and egos; heated emotions. Policy. That’s what politics is. Shared ideas and information result in policies whether in the family, the city or the nation. Once they are “written”, policies can take on a life of their own and history has shown it’s worth everyone’s time to hammer them out, as in, beat it from one side, flip it over and beat it some more. The idea is to explore options, gather information and try on opposing perspectives.

On that note, I will throw out an opinion, my own, and it is definitely political.
It has got to be obvious that whoever, whatever one considers the Democratic Party Controllers to be, they have gambled and already lost with the present administration. Not a single poll will show President Biden wining against Trump in November. And, I don’t think anyone on their bench will do any better. That boat is on the rocks so in my opinion, anyone who would prefer Trump NOT become our next president, consider the logic and wisdom of this really being as a two way race between Trump and Bobby Kennedy. A 20,000+ person pool gave Kennedy the edge, if it were between the two. Like Bobby Dylan says, ” You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows”.

This is a worthwhile essay about words, public dialog and shaping views, thus policy. It’s not that long.

Because of the ubiquitous cameras and speed of sharing information, visual, audio, written…all of it, we really don’t have to wait for the “news” broadcast, ( with all that darn sliding, shifting graphics in the background as an added distraction),
to find out what really happens. The many ‘public squares’, not unlike our own BBQ, will slice and dice an event so fast, winnowing out the chaff from the facts, we don’t have to wait for the “Official Report.
The compilation presented below is a case in point.

Thanks again Chuck and Barb.

Take your opinion to the Polls, not to BBQ

Submitted By: pangaeagaia@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I agree with Kathie Raisler.
BBQ has always had a gentle soul. And although it has raised its voice at times, it has been kind, most of the time.
Take your opinions to the polls, not to BBQ. There is enough hate and consternation on TV and at the table next to you at the restaurant. Don’t spread it to our little community.
Most people know what they support and who, and your SCREAMING only strengthens that support, not changing it one iota.
Thank you, BBQ, for always being there for everyone, even the crazies. But please keep hate out of our community.

What Cannot Be Bought or Sold

In time we come to know, we understand

there is no saving grace in lies and misleading.

Deep and real differences may hold our families;

But there is no saving grace in lies and using

what misleads. Across canyons of time and space,

listening to the voices of trusted elders and

honored friends, “Through love alone will hate be healed.”

Be healed and know we have awakened before,

left behind our ignorance, the delusions of our greed,

hatred, and fear. Slowly, we are abandoning the belief

that a man or woman can own another, assume

or create a relation that does not recognize the

inherent rights and dignity of another. At work

as in marriage, community, and state relations

this entitlement is now a birthright, an achievement

of what is best in all of us. We are awakening, slowly

reaching the understanding that war is not a sustainable

choice. The war in Vietnam, the war in Iraq, wherever

we may look, we are coming to know that war profits

a small minority of citizens. We have heard all their lies,

the reasons why our sons and daughters must continue to die,

why those of us who have the most merit further incentives

to accumulate even more. There is no saving grace in being

misled. We are also awakening to the fragile gift of democracy,

how your voice and vote is equal to all others. Will it ever be

easy to recognize and accept how we have been used?

Each of us knows the answer to this common experience.

But as the typhoons come and the tornados grow stronger, as

species extinction accelerates, and our divorce rates incline,

as our coastal cities submerge and our elders die of unrelenting
heat, we can awaken, recognize how we have been used.

What comes to mind when I hear their notion that we should

deport millions of our brothers and sisters seeking as we have

sought a better life, or listen to their war cry, drill baby drill,

what comes to mind is, “They just let you do it.”
