It's officially hot as hell. And the fellas are out in front, rebuilding the street. I can tell you, playing with concrete in 100 degree Texas heat isn't on my bucket list. God Bless'em. They cut off half the street, the northbound half, and started tearing it to pieces. Yet, all day long I'll see … Continue reading Miscellaneous Crapola

I can watch this over and over
https://youtu.be/Nk-QUz3mzFY I've bought two copies of this concert on DVD. Both people I let them to had zero knowledge of who Mark Knopfler was. I was incredulous, and lent them my DVD so they could get a clue. Both times - Gone. Never got it back.

You Gotta Be Kidding Me…
I was surfing SocialGalactic and found this: https://wagwalking.com/condition/poultry-allergies Jethro has nine of those sixteen symptoms Only thing that makes sense, given we've had him on Apoquel from time to time.

OK Groomer…
I think the line okay groomer is probably the funniest thing I've heard this year so far. And it's totally appropriate. I do a lot of volunteer work, and that means that I have to take safe environment training every year. It only takes about 20 minutes online to renew and some of the courses … Continue reading OK Groomer…
Friday Song of the Week
I thought I'd take a break from funnies and do a song this week. Being a guitar player, Mark Knopfler is my hero.

[Verse 1]Yon's my privateerSee how trim … Continue reading Friday Song of the Week
Home Depot Steps in It
This is something that's been making the rounds all last week. I first heard about it while listening to the morning show here in DFW and simply shrugged my shoulders.

Care Package from the Motherland
Herself got a care package from the motherland... For those uninitiated, the US isn't a homogenous place. Hell, even Texas isn't.
