I'm not a yard sign guy. What's the point of a secret ballot if you broadcast to the world how you will vote. Mostly, I see this as mere virtue signalling. The majority of the political sign types, around here anyways, tend to have on up all year. "We don't care who you are, we're … Continue reading Signs

Monday: Quote of the Week
"Do not deprive me from my suffering and my pain, for negative consequences must follow if I hope to learn from the crimes I committed against myself.

Gonna be a Great Day, Tater…
A post over at PawPaw's House tickled my memory and reminded me that I needed to put in an order for Boudin with the motherland's finest purveyors of specialty meats.

Measuring your Words
Wranglerstar posted a great video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/WxUOZ6Bvw3Y My dad had some advice for measuring your words, thinking before you speak, that he gave a number of us kids. I won't do it justice. I only remember it from my brother telling me a few years ago, which jogged a dim memory of him telling me. It … Continue reading Measuring your Words
Wednesday Night Cooking
I haven't been cooking much at night. My wife has been working late, so things I've cooked on Sunday tend to last all week. Hell, sitting in the fridge now is a picnic roast, a handful of chicken thighs, and what's left of a store bought chicken. And I've been eating on them all week. … Continue reading Wednesday Night Cooking

All the trouble in the world these days makes me spend more time with my dogs. During Cancer therapy, I could do little but sit in front of a computer or a TV.

I was told that if it came back, it would come back in my lungs, which is what appears to … Continue reading Rest in Peace, EVH

To understand the workings of American politics, you have to understand this fundamental law: Conservatives think liberals are stupid. Liberals think conservatives are evil. — Charles Krauthammer I'd add that the liberal prog of today thinks anyone that isn't 100% with them is evil and needs to die. Hell, they say it enough. Look at how they … Continue reading These people are nuts.
Choose your Destructor…
I love my dogs. Each has a unique personality. They also share one thing in common; a zest for tearing apart stuff. It isn't tough to prevent destruction. Simply put stuff you don't want to lose out of their reach. I can't remember the last time I left shoes out. They aren't without sense though. … Continue reading Choose your Destructor…
