Clay Jenkins is some nob judge in Dallas that thinks he can issue edicts, like a king, to control the citizens in Dallas County's lives. He recently issued an edict that those in Dallas now must mask up, again. I heard it on the news, and ignored it. As it appears most are doing. Then … Continue reading Who is Clay Jenkins?
Ribbons
I was walking the dogs the other day and noticed orange ribbons tied on tons of trees in my neighborhood. The walk at the entrance to the park I figured, what the hell. Who's virtue signaling what? I asked some geezers that I know that live around here. They had no idea, although they had … Continue reading Ribbons

https://youtu.be/Nu4tjTyqbho An amazing rendition. Do you think there's a soul under 40 that could even dream of those lyrics? or even the situation that caused the song to be crafted in the first place? BB King's voice is epic. I can't think of another singer with that tenor and power. And the dude's what? Over … Continue reading Sunday Music
The Essence of Tacky
We have an issue in my neighborhood with locusts. Not the bugs. The people that come from other states, buy a property, demolish the old house, and put up a ridiculous McMansion. We also have a developer issue, where these guys buy a property, build a stupid house, and hope to sell it. One that … Continue reading The Essence of Tacky
New Mexico Green Chile Stew
We spent a long weekend in New Mexico a few weekends ago. It was great to get away. On our last day there, we took one last ride up the ski lift to mooch around in the freezing cold at 10600 feet, then came back down and waddled over to "El Jefe", a restaurant across … Continue reading New Mexico Green Chile Stew

It Never Ends
Every morning the boys tell me it's time to walk. Girlfriend (Aria) is usually in the sunroom on a vigil for squirrels. I have to coax her to walk. Eventually, I give in and take them out. Any why not? It buys me 8 hours of them loafing and leaving me to work. https://player.vimeo.com/video/583589445?badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479 Let's … Continue reading It Never Ends
One Vine
Cucumbers So awhile back, I put in some raised gardens. I planted one cucumber vine that I picked up at Home Depot. Then built a trellis for it to climb. After awhile, we've been getting cucumbers every day. Way more than we can eat. Which is a good thing, since I've taken a liking to … Continue reading One Vine
Sunday Music
When I had facebook, this video would hit my feed about every week. And I'd watch it through each time. https://youtu.be/8L82II1lNjo Masters. You're looking an masters playing. Look how seamlessly they pass leads back and forth. The older voice of Steve Winwood makes the song even better than it was back in the day. It's … Continue reading Sunday Music
I can watch this all day
My new mental patient channel on Youtubes is ViceGrip Garage. I can watch this dude all day. What he does is find abandoned relics, gets them running, and drives them home. Usually. Although one episode he got beaten by an F-250 that spent way to long rotting. Why do I like this? First and foremost, … Continue reading I can watch this all day
