Forgot I had this.

I was looking over the stash of video I have and found this: https://vimeo.com/765137815 This is a video of Jasper finding his place in the pack. It's instructive. Look how he both challenges and submits. He's maybe 13 weeks old here. BTW, he was always faster than the other two, and he took advantage of … Continue reading Forgot I had this. →

Quote of the Week

The West denies moral standards, religion, family. Do we really want Russia to have “parent number one, two, three” instead of “mom and dad” and that perversions that lead to degradation and extinction are imposed on children in schools, supposedly there are some genders, except for women and men? For us, this is unacceptable. Vladimir … Continue reading Quote of the Week →

It’s all BS, Part 2

I listen to talk radio every morning as I feed myself and the dogs. Usually, it's Mark Davis on 660AM. I like the banter between him and Mike Gallagher every morning. This morning they had a converstation about how republicans are in trouble over the Dobbs decision. Supposedly Gallagher had 'conservative women' callers from Texas … Continue reading It’s all BS, Part 2 →

Jasper Gets a New Home

It's been a week since I brought Jasper to his new home. I've had some texts back and forth with the new owners, as they learn about Jasper and he learns about them. Pretty typical stuff. When you think about it, he hasn't been away from us or the other dogs for any time in … Continue reading Jasper Gets a New Home →

Diminishing Returns

I've been off this week. Had big plans. Plans that had to change. Why? Behold: Not even the hottest part of the day either. The heat is so bad, it's nauseating. I'm strugging to keep my plants alive. Although the sunflowers and wildflowers I planted seem to bo doing OK. Even the persimmon tree seems … Continue reading Diminishing Returns →

Been a Long, Long Time

Back in the day, back when my kids were way young, I'd go shooting with my friends nearly every weekend. Typically we'd go to the shooting center at Manassas Battlefield park, because it was fairly close and super cheap. We'd shoot skeet and sporting clays. We'd also go to other sites. There was one on … Continue reading Been a Long, Long Time →

Miscellaneous Crapola

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. Their blend of voices is incredible, as is the … Continue reading I can watch this over and over →

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. Non Chicken dog food is twice as expensive. Maybe I get a small bag and try it on Jet. But Jasper's started chewing on his … Continue reading You Gotta Be Kidding Me… →

Friday Funnies

I have an old jokebook sitting on my desk. Too lazy to type some up. So these are poached from laffgaff.com An 85-year-old man goes to see his doctor for his regular physical exam. The doctor says that the man needs to provide a sperm sample and gives him a jar saying, “Take this jar … Continue reading Friday Funnies →
