I read somewhere once that Billy Joel was asked now that he was older, did he miss anything? His answer was "competence". I can't agree more. I find myself saying, over and over, "Ah..for chrissakes, can't you just do your job?" What really gets my goat is when they (whoever it is) is working hard … Continue reading Can’t you just do your damn job?
Roosh Buys a Truck
If you haven't been following the travels of Roosh this last year, you should hit his YouTube channel and watch them. I've enjoyed the series tremendously. So, done with his travel, he appears to be gearing up to migrate into the wilderness by buying a truck, and put out a video of what he looked … Continue reading Roosh Buys a Truck
Knock it off, you aren’t the Dog Whisperer

Gimme free [stuff]
That was one big assed storm
My city got battered by the most intense storm I've ever witnessed Sunday. That said, I've been through tropical storms, including some good Texas ones, but I've normally slept through them. What's funny is nearly zero of the smart tech devices I have gave me any warning whatsoever. We went to Mass, then breakfast. All … Continue reading That was one big assed storm
Updates
Whoa! it's been quite some time since I've added anything here. I was overcome by events. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it. So, let's start.
