Lisa from Ice Road          Tattoo Girl

Truckers

Lisa is the newest addition to the cable show “Ice Road Truckers” and dispells the myth that all truck drivers are a little hard on the eyes.

Tattoo girl is the person who claimed she didn’t want all of the tat’s on her face, but fell asleep during the process and woke up looking like this!  She now admits that it was all a lie and that she knew what she was getting.

We’re Digital Baby!

Friday, June 12th, 2009

Today’s the big day when all television stations go digital and that means some sets may not be working.  If you woke up this morning and had no TV signal, it’s because you TV isn’t digital and you don’t have a converter box. 

According to the Arizona Republic, if you have the right equipment, you still may have some work to do because four stations are moving to a new part of the broadcast spectrum, and your tuner needs to find them.  Dig out your instruction book, or go to the menu screen on your converter box or TV.  The rescan function might be called “auto-program” or “channel scan.  If a station seems to be gone, rescan and it should reappear.

If you’re using rabbit ears and have a tough time getting channels 10 & 12, you might need to install a rooftop antenna.  Those signals have a hard time penetrating the chicken wire used in stucco homes.

For info, call 1-888-CALL-FCC, or go to www.dtv.gov

Happy viewing!

The new craze is raising chickens in your backyard!  Be careful, because the laws are different in each city.  See below…

Glendale:  Chickens are permitted but must be contained.  Roosters are not allowed within 500 feet of a neighbor.

Mesa:  Chickens are “lawful,” but they must be confined at least 75 feet from neighbors.

Phoenix:  Chickens are permitted if the owner gets written permission from neighbors who live within 80 feet of a coop.  Roosters are not allowed in residential neighborhoods.

Scottsdale:  Chickens can be kept, but their couops must be kept clean, and their noise cannot be a nuisance.

Tempe: Chickens are allowed, but then cannot be a “nuisance.”  They must be confined at least 75 feet from neighbors.

Everything “Chicken” can be found at this link.  www.backyardchickens.com.   Good Cluck…er…uh…Luck!
