I opined about Winders 11 the other day. Mostly that it's minimum specs are above my 3 year old tower. Also because they are going to a subscription, no doubt, and I can't stand subscriptions for base functionality. Well....Looky here: It was also, apparently, an instruction manual for product developers at Microsoft. Windows 11 now … Continue reading That’s a Big Nope, Nope, Nope
TDS in the Wild
I joined Facebook again a few months ago, mostly because that's how many in my family communicate. I also like the feeds for Vice Grip Garage and other YouTubers I watch. I have few friends on it. I click-through on nothing. There's little on it but pics of me that are on the interwebs elsewhere, … Continue reading TDS in the Wild
Getting Fit
This month's weigh in had me at an Empty Weight of 195. Hoof! that's a 10lb in a month increase where the previous three had me consistently between 185 and 190. That anomaly got me thinking. On the minus side of the ledger, I've eaten out more last month than usual. Most of that is … Continue reading Getting Fit
Gratuitous Dog Pic
It's raining all weekend. I plan on some napping as well.
Random Thoughts
Next door fascinates me, and not in a good way. Quite frankly I'd be embarrassed to post stupid questions. There are absolutely stupid questions and the thread is full of them. Why P Diddy now? Did they work their way up to him? Who’s next? I had the saddest thought of all time whilst out … Continue reading Random Thoughts
Run fer Yer Life!
Just kidding. There's no running from this. I was awakened yesterday by a clap of thunder that sounded like a cannon shot. Then the wind and rain started, with smacks here and there of hail hitting the window. I got up, hit the head, took my first round of meds and laid back down. Couldn't … Continue reading Run fer Yer Life!

I miss the big guy. We're coming up on a year of missing him.
A Prodigal Son Returns
It had been a minute since I've been to an AA meeting. So I went. Mostly to celebrate my one year of sobriety, but for some reason I felt I needed to, or should go. I met one of the older ladies on the way in. Once in, there were more than a few new … Continue reading A Prodigal Son Returns
Lay off the Dude
Who'd have thought a commencement address at a fairly obscure private college would have the usual suspects gibbering and flapping arms. Behold: https://youtu.be/-JS7RIKSaCc?si=wKyarX9HBPDLD3E3 Catholic dude, speaking at a (very) Catholic college about life and things all Catholics believe. There's nothing wrong pointing out that quite a few of the women graduates would see motherhood as … Continue reading Lay off the Dude
Got the COVID for the long haul
I stumbled on a piece about long COVID on PJMedia. It started with Ann Coulter chucking a bomb at it on a Scott Adams podcast. "I hope you're not one of these, but I've been a little disappointed in some of my fellow conservatives running off on this UFO thing," she began. "UFO things have … Continue reading Got the COVID for the long haul
