Welcome to Andy's Blog peeking at Air Guns, Electronics, Aircrafts, Submarines, Religions, Weather, Wicca and anything else that comes to mind...
An ye harm none, do what ye will.
The Wiccan Rede
Bide the Wiccan Laws we must In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust. Live and let live. Fairly take and fairly give. Cast the Circle thrice about To keep the evil spirits out. To bind the spell every time Let the spell be spake in rhyme. Soft of eye and light of touch, Speak little, listen much. Deosil go by the waxing moon, Chanting out the Witches' Rune. Widdershins go by the waning moon, Chanting out the baneful rune. When the Lady's moon is new, Kiss the hand to her, times two. When the moon rides at her peak, Then your heart's desire seek, Heed the North wind's mighty gale, Lock the door and drop the sail. When the wind comes from the South, Love will kiss thee on the mouth. When the wind blows from the West, Departed souls will have no rest. When the wind blows from the East, Expect the new and set the feast. Nine woods in the cauldron go, Burn them fast and burn them slow. Elder be the Lady's tree, Burn it not or cursed you'll be. When the Wheel begins to turn, Let the Beltane fires burn. When the Wheel has turned to Yule, Light the log and the Horned One rules. Heed ye Flower, Bush and Tree, By the Lady, blessed be. Where the rippling waters go, Cast a stone and truth you'll know. When ye have a true need, Hearken not to others' greed. With a fool no season spend, Lest ye be counted as his friend. Merry meet and merry part, Bright the cheeks and warm the heart. Mind the Threefold Law you should, Three times bad and three times good. When misfortune is enow, Wear the blue star on thy brow. True in Love ever be, Lest thy lover's false to thee. Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill: An ye harm none, do what ye will.
BTW Please enjoy my playlist of songs below the post column - Blessed Be ;0)

Who is Andy...
Hi,
I love Kat and my little Tina. They get most of my attention! When I am on "here" it is on my Android based Tablet and not the "Laptop". Kat usually is playing on that! Bottom line is that I don't get the "bells and whistles" that most of ya all see!! Would love to have a second computer so bad.
I am Andrew James Elliott Jr., have be called many different names, Junior, BooBoo, Andrew, Anj, Andy, James, Elliott and a few others. I just hate being called late for Supper, LOL.
Born Watertown, New York, USA (February 18th 1956)
High School: Bossier City High School (1975), Bossier City, LA, Right next to Shreveport, LA about 75 miles away from the AR,TX, and LA border. Majored in AFJROTC with 280 day delay program with USMC.
Military Service: USMC Vietnam Vet. (1974-1980)
College: Arizona Western College, (1980-1981)Yuma AZ
Currently: Retired on Disability (2007- )
Currently Located: Naylor, MO (2011- )
I love to target practice with my air rifle and cycling with Onyx my recumbent trike (lost her this in 2011), I love bushcraft - the art of surviving in the woods. Of course I spend more time on the computer than I should. I was injuried back in 2007, I have lost most of what I had like most of us have lately. Married 3 times and with up to 24 years of marriage and family behind me, I am learning how to just breath.
So Yes I am divorced, I am not Married. I have 5 children out there somewhere all grown and on their own. I live on SSDI which is not much, but I know their are many with less than I. So I am Thankful. With the government and economy the way it is I could lose this at a stroke of a pen. Life is ever changing, to survive you must learn to adapt and over come.
I truly hate being alone. With all the single people out here looking for companionship and love it does not make any sense. So 2011 brought me two special lives into my life!
On January 19th, 2011, I brought Tina, my 4 pound chihuahua, into my life, she is so beautihul and sweet. She alone hates being alone as bad as I do!
And on June 28th, 2011, I found an amazing Woman, You all know her as Kathy, to me she is my "Kat" No words can describe what she does to me. I can not think about life without her. I am blessed with the ability to be with her 24/7, enjoying all that she brings to my life. Thank you Kat! I love You!
No we are not married, it seems life just likes to keep putting hurdles in the way. It made more sense to be together than apart, so you might say we live in "sin", but as long as we are happy at our age it should not matter that much. Maybe someday, when the moon is perfectly aligned with the stars and by the grace of God, we will say our "I DO's." I LOVE KAT. I know we will always be together. I am not perfect, but I always try to put other people first.
Interests - Cooking, Air Rifles, Shooting, Amateur Radio, Cycling, Bushcrafting, Computers, Sub Sims, Flying Sims. Movies - Ghost, Hope Floats, Twilight Movies, 50 First Dates, I Lean towards Sci-Fi and Fantasy or course a touch of Romance in all. Being a Marine a good war movie is not bad either. Music - The 50's 60's and 70's mainly (that makes me feel 18 all over again). Religion - I was raised Penacostal, been Baptist, Catholic, and many other sects. In 2007 after I was injured and I had to find who I really was and why I am here on this earth. I started studying religions tracing it back to the known beginning. Pagan worship is the basis of all religions even today. Do you really know who was born on December 25th or why it is cellebrated today? Or who really rose on Easter day. Study it for yourself. I have and I was terribly upset when I realized that the pastors and priests throughout my life were either as blind as I was or knew the truth but trained us to believe in their truth, Yes the truth will set you free in deed. Please study, read, draw you own conclusions. So am I Christian?, No I am not, I have always been Pagan and just did not know it and was told differently.
Like I have said before I hate being alone, So I am on my computer and my tablet most of the time to share my life with you and hopefully yours with me. I respect people I try to treat people the way I would like to be treated no matter how I am treated. Live Free and Harm None. So thanks for being my Friend and being here with me :o)
