I'm at a loss to describe what I'm seeing here. And that's pretty hard to do since I never failed to have words. What we have here is a woman whose won life's lottery. She wound up getting elected, and is riding the gravy train that exists in DC in the Mid-Atlantic corridor. Without any … Continue reading I’m at a loss…

Like the Weather
Man oh Man, it's been rainy here like Seattle. https://youtu.be/gm0ZWbMhWrE I saw her sing this live long ago. Weird chick. Cool voice. Cool stage presence. I'm a nut about songs that resonate with me. I go to Ultimate-guitar.com and learn how to play them. This one is fun to play. "What a cold and a … Continue reading Like the Weather
That Time of Year Again…
And this time, it was more painful and expensive than usual. Every year you have to renew the tags on your car, which involves an inspection. Herself's car is due in May, and look at the date - it's the eleventh hour again. For those uninitiated, you don't go to the DMV in Texas for … Continue reading That Time of Year Again…
Get the Squirrel!
I have a persimmon tree in my back yard. It was here when I bought the place. It grows like a weed and you need to cut it back every year. I don't always. This year I cut it back severely. Last fall I had persimmons 30 feet up that I couldn't get to. So … Continue reading Get the Squirrel!
Good Lord…We really are that Stupid
The big news this last week was our overlords succumbing to Occam's Razor and admitting that the Chinese Coof came from China. Really. As usual, others have covered it better. Let's cover what we knew way back in early 2020: It came from Wuhan.There happens to be not one, but two virology labs there, that … Continue reading Good Lord…We really are that Stupid
Run Forrest!
Last post I alluded to what happens when the dudes realize there's someone they don't want on the property. So here's what happened. I came down the alley, and there was this slob that looked like Eminem hanging around on his mobile at my neighbors garage. There was another dude, his friend apparently, sitting on … Continue reading Run Forrest!
Jethro Hates Solicitors
So do I. It's why I installed a camera system. In addition to Ring, I have an actual video camera system. Two, as a matter of fact. One Wyze, that has 3 cameras where I can see what the dogs are up to if I'm not here. I use it primarily to check if the … Continue reading Jethro Hates Solicitors
Get a Shop Vac
I had a bit of an incident with the sunroom. It's under construction, so there's a door missing, and the sides leading to the roof aren't finished. No biggie really, unless it rains like hell here. Which it did. And I realized that I'm going to have to deal with drainage, and the dumb thing … Continue reading Get a Shop Vac
What? In Plano?
My old hometown had a spot of bother over the weekend. Seems BLM was marching on behalf of some dude that died in Collin County Jail back in March. Timing is sure off, considering how long it's been and that the real protest - the honest one, happened back then at the municipal center where … Continue reading What? In Plano?
Shootin’ Can?
Found this on a dog bed yesterday. Wut? That isn't my shootin' can. That's what happens when a large shepherd mix fishes an empty can out of the recycling and goes to town. I'm in a quandary about who it was. The big dude, Jethro, is about the only one that can deftly reach into … Continue reading Shootin’ Can?
