MyQ – Control your stuff
Like most of the country, I have a chamberlain garage door opener. They are probably the most ubiquotus one out there.

You typically drive … Continue reading MyQ – Control your stuff

We have two massive pecan trees in our back yard that provide shade during most of the afternoon. Even though some numbnut topped them, they still are magestic.

For the Chulrins…
I have a pretty busy life these days, so I don't have a ton of time to spend watching the tube. For the most part, I'll watch YouTubes in the sunroom while I eat lunch. Or later in the evening I'll stream something on Amazon. Annoyingly, a lot of what Amazon coughs up requires this … Continue reading For the Chulrins…
Got the Boot?
Saw this on Gab: Brilliant! FWIW the tire looks marginal, and a steel rim like that is what? $50 new? Yeah.

Therefore the law is paralyzed,and justice never prevails.The wicked hem in the … Continue reading How Long, O Lord?

The West denies moral standards, religion, family. Do we really want Russia to have “parent number one, two, three” instead of “mom and dad” and that perversions that lead to degradation and extinction are imposed on children in schools, supposedly there are some genders, except for women and men? For us, this is unacceptable. Vladimir … Continue reading Quote of the Week
Dog Friday
Everythings going to hell in a handbasket. Inflation sucks. We're ruled by imbeciles. Yada, yada, yada. But at least it's not raining. Here. Yet. Matter of fact, it's gotten quite cool here and the pups love it. Aria really has come alive. She's not a hot weather dog, what with that thick fur coat and … Continue reading Dog Friday
