Jethro has had guts issues for most of the week. I've been awakened the last few nights, usually twice, by the very unique "I'm gonna shit my pants" whine, followed by a more anxious bark. He's such a good dude. Does NOT want to go in the house. So I get up, grab for some … Continue reading Shoot Me!
Odds & Ends
Another long week staring at screens. And writing. Lots of writing. I'm not a docs guy. I came to this profession by being a subject matter expert and a skilled engineer. I didn't come by this by being a technical writer. I can do it, but I find it punishing. So much so I'm using … Continue reading Odds & Ends
A Time of Misery
Back in the day I had a HomeLite trimmer and edger. Not a big fan of homelite. They are generally low end machines. The weedeater gave up the ghost a long time ago and was replaced by a TroyBuilt, which is fantastic. Reliable as dirt. The edger gave up the ghost this spring as I … Continue reading A Time of Misery
Happy Easter!
Holy Thursday
Odds & Ends
I've been busy. I have two projects at work that are mind numbing and require a lot of writing. So at the end of the day, I'm done with scribbling. By the way, don't think Ernest Hemingway here. Think Winston Smith. All I lack is the dismal cubicle. I'm sure that won't be far behind. … Continue reading Odds & Ends
Shithead of the Week
Behold... https://vimeo.com/813568108 Video doesn't do it justice. What you saw was a dipshit in a Porsche Cayenne blast out of the parking lot in front of the red car. You can't hear the tire squeal as he turned, and it was actually closer than it appears. Here's the rub; Notice the car at the intersection. … Continue reading Shithead of the Week
Say it Brother…
Adaptive Curmudgeon has been on and off grid for a lot of the winter. Snows a bunch where he is. When he checks in, he does it bigly... Everything dumb from an month ago has rifted from conspiracy theory to known fact. Yet all issues remain unresolved. The Hunter laptop is now officially real. As … Continue reading Say it Brother…
All of Man’s virtues, with none of his vices..
Borepatch had to put his dog, Wolfgang down. I can't imagine the pain. I work at home. My big dude follows me around all day. Both of them roust me when it's time to walk, time to quit for the day. Time to take a break and play. Today he posted a longer piece, RTWT. … Continue reading All of Man’s virtues, with none of his vices..
Drone Strikes?
Apparently, our guys got hit by an Iranian drone strike. We came back with an air strike. The U.S. military on Thursday executed airstrikes in Syria in response to a drone strike by Iranian forces earlier in the day on a coalition base that killed a U.S. contractor. "As President Biden has made clear, we … Continue reading Drone Strikes?
