I had enough. For a number of reasons, I decided I needed two wheel therapy on Good Friday. The weekend was building a suck factor. So that needed to be rectified with some speed. Friday was the only day to do it, since storms were due Saturday and Sunday. The winds were already picking up. … Continue reading Ride Report

Lead, Follow, or Get out the way
I've been following the disaster up in North Carolina and Tennessee. It seems, as usual, FEMA is up there making a mess of things at best, and obstructing efforts at worse. It must be bad, since my morning radio show covers some new outrage every morning, it seems: Pilots bringing their own helicopters for rescue … Continue reading Lead, Follow, or Get out the way
Odds & Ends
My stream of conscious babbling. It's Friday the 13th. Anyone still care about that crap? I don't I didn't watch the debate. I can't stand listening to either one of them. But I did view the streaming commentary on PJ Media, at least for a bit. Big surprise, she lies. Harris is dumb as a … Continue reading Odds & Ends
Hurricane Hunkering
Hurricane Beryl wandered around the gulf and went north to the motherland - Texas. Houston and other cities got a beating. We got little, as usual. These things tend to peter out before they hit DFW. So what we get is a welcome rain day in what is usually a dry summer: My Tomato and … Continue reading Hurricane Hunkering

Then watch the pinheads all "reply-all". My gottdam laptop started chiming like a fuggin slot machine with the … Continue reading Random Thoughts

A busy and interesting week. The house went on the market, so now I have to keep it clean at all times. That's a struggle with the dogs. I've solved part of it by managing to be out of town all weekend, for the most part. Saturday, the dogs come with me to look at … Continue reading Random Thoughts
Screamin’ for Ice Cream
We all scream for ice cream, right? Zman had a piece on his subscribestar account about making ice cream, of all things. It turns out that you have to be a moron to screw up ice cream making. The first try resulted in the best thing I have had since I was a kid. The … Continue reading Screamin’ for Ice Cream
Kid Charlemagne
As I work in my office, I'm playing tunes or podacasts. As I was typing my screed on my dog's spoiled guts I was listening to classic Steely Dan https://youtu.be/b00h8iKaklQ I tried like hell to find a good live version, as I'm sucker for such things, but there was none to be had with the … Continue reading Kid Charlemagne
