Assembling the New Ride

Got around to assembling bike this week, and taking it on a maiden voyage. Oddly, there were no directions in the box. I kind of like that. A pro thing. You should know what to do. There were some instructions on the outside, starting with how to open the box: Apparently I was supposed to … Continue reading Assembling the New Ride →

The Loons are Singing

Found on Vox Popoli: There are a couple things that drive me insane. The first is dancing on the graves of the dead, especially if they are innocent, and Charlie Kirk was. His gig was dialog. Look at some of these idiotic comments. Do they really want political discourse to go kinetic? Look at the … Continue reading The Loons are Singing →

This is How They Do It

Windows 10 is being discontinued. Microsoft is working hard to make sure your computer is now useless unless you subscribe to Windows 11. I got an email earlier this month warning me, yet again, that no updates would come after the (I think) October date. You could, however, purchase your own 3rd party security, which … Continue reading This is How They Do It →

Spoke Too Soon…

The other day I was chirping about adding a Friday run. Turns out Nemesis may have appeared to deal with my hubris. After Friday's runs, my legs and calves are tight. Usually it goes away. This last Monday, I didn't get out to run until later, and things had heated up pretty good. Meh...I went … Continue reading Spoke Too Soon… →

Street Tucker

Bush tucker, also called bush food, is any food native to Australia and historically eaten by Indigenous Australians and Torres Strait Islander peoples, but it can also describe any native flora, fauna, or fungi used for culinary or medicinal purposes, regardless of the continent or culture. Dogs are amazing creatures. When I'm walking my two, … Continue reading Street Tucker →

It’s a Scam

Lot of news lately in the Karmelo Anthony case. The grand jury charged him with first degree murder. Then, he files for a public defender as he is indigent. https://youtu.be/GCsXZ4ViW00?si=sg-rMZzeB4afx9nv It's all so tiresome. Funniest part about this video, and the others I've seen, is no one 'of color' appears to be able to pronounce … Continue reading It’s a Scam →

Getting Fit

Another month's gone by. After the last break, it took a couple painful seeks to get back where I was. I simply lowered the weight and concentrated on form. It paid off. For an old pharte, I'm packing on muscle, especially in my thighs, calves, and shoulders. When I first started working out down here, … Continue reading Getting Fit →

Why I Don’t Tell You Anything

I'm not a comic person, but I get a kick out of Hypergamouse. It's a play on the SSH illustrated by Lacy Fairchild. There are mices of every type - Alpha, Bravo, Delta, Gamma... Vox Day has been posting them on Saturdays with commentary. Last week or so was a great one. It's the buildup … Continue reading Why I Don’t Tell You Anything →

Dressing for Success

No idea why, but I'm getting a lot of 'How to get the gurlz' for older guys in my YouTube feed. Do they know something I don't? This one was interesting, but I don't agree with some of it: https://youtu.be/eQPZ16yqIGw For guys over 40. That's me, for sure. Let's fisk this list: No Baggy Faded … Continue reading Dressing for Success →

Mowed on the Edge of the Sword

Friend of mine was let go this week. Mowed down on edge of a sword with a hundred others or so. One of my coworkers got it a few weeks ago. Business Optimization, don'cha know. People have to be 'exited'. He's bummed out, of course. Who wouldn't be? at best, it's a horrible inconvenience. At … Continue reading Mowed on the Edge of the Sword →
