Shamelessly poached from emails I get and sites I visit. I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Hotline. I got a call center in Afghanistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked … Continue reading Friday Funnies
RTWT Thursday
I surf a number of blogs and news sites. This is what you have to do these days to figure stuff out. The main stream press sure isn't going to tell you. So I thought I'd post interesting items I find. Unintended Consequences. I'm not so sure. I'll get to that in a bit. Earlier … Continue reading RTWT Thursday
Why Johnny Can’t Play
Stacy McCain had a piece up on music that really resonated with me about the Band "Chicago" music back in the day. I love music. All kinds. I play music - both guitar and bass, and have for decades. I'm good at it. Not great, but competent. By the way, a lot of friends that … Continue reading Why Johnny Can’t Play
SCOTUS blocks the jab
The supreme court mostly blocked the vaccine mandate. Mostly. Because it still applies, apparently, to medical staff and only until it works it's way through the courts. It's shrinkflation of law. Like getting a sixpack only to realize all the cans are 10oz. now. Whelp...still beer I suppose. If you haven't seen the Dr. Malone … Continue reading SCOTUS blocks the jab
Funny Dog Pic Friday
Crazy Girlfren is such a daddy's girl. Aria, at maybe 6 mos. old. Well before she came to us.
They really are that stupid.
Why in the name of all that is holy are we poking at the Russian bear? After the USSR cracked up, NATO should have been disbanded. It's sole existence was to protect Europe from the Ruskies. Trump said it best, when he was insisting the EU pay up. He asked why are we over there … Continue reading They really are that stupid.
And So It Begins…
The first of the year brought in winter to North Dallas. Got cold As usual, most of the country had actual winter. We've been enjoying 60-70 degrees or more every day. Day one of the new year, we started off running the AC. I left to go out at around 5PM, the temp had dropped … Continue reading And So It Begins…
How Would You Know?
I had big plans for this week. Big Plans. I did the cooking for Christmas and New Years and one of the things I tried out was a recipe for 'Hoppin' John Jambalaya". Seemed awesome. I planned on a victorious post outlining how I made this amazing dish. In reality, it pretty much sucked. To … Continue reading How Would You Know?
Job Satisfaction
It's been a long week. I've been off for it all, since my company takes the week between Christmas and New Years off, worldwide. Nice. I've tried getting as many projects done as I could, one small, one big per day. I have a stack of tile in the garage - the floor for the … Continue reading Job Satisfaction
Jasper “F-s” around and finds out.
Tomorrow is trash day. So before I got busy on my afternoon project, I emptied the trash in a bag to take out. But I didn't notice that Jasper had followed me back into 'officer territory'. The bedrooms are off limits to the dogs, and are the realm of Bonzai, my ancient cat. Must have … Continue reading Jasper “F-s” around and finds out.
