Try finding a hotel room in a major city after all this bullshit is over and done with

And there will be many other casualties of the misguided leadership in this country... 

It's absolutely frightening how much these people don't give a fuck about the consequences of their actions.

That being said...

Lowes may not be your favorite store, but they are a class act when it comes to Vets (like me). Preferred parking and 10% across the board discount on everything. Well played Lowes - maybe Home Depot might consider matching their action someday, but I doubt it.

Fed-up New Yorkers painted a massive stretch of Brooklyn blacktop with the yellow message “Fuck Cuomo and de Blasio” over the weekend in the vein of Hizzoner’s “Black Lives Matter” art, only for the city to quickly scrub the statement. 

The not-so-subtle shout-out to Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio went up around 1 a.m. Saturday on North 15th Street between Wythe Avenue and Banker Street in Williamsburg (part of Brooklyn), during the waning hours of an annual block party.

I like following the 'who was born today' bullshit. It's scary how many famous people there are for no apparent reason.

Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick and Chuck Wein, around 1965. 

If I hadda spent more then 15 seconds with this fuckin' guy I'da probably just killed myself. Genius is in the eye of the beholder. I think he was probably one of the biggest assholes ever born. Juss' sayin'.

Speaking of birthdays, this guy was born on this date. 
Imagine how many squirrels were running around under that turban...

The last time I was up in Jersey I hadda go in to Asbury Park to meet some friends for drinks. 

That's a whole 'nother story about $ 8.00 beers and $ 16.00 Martinis. Anyways, I HATE paying for parking in that shithole little town, so I parked on a side street and walked a block instead. 
On the way back to my car when all was said and done, I happened to see PeeWee Hermann sitting on a swing hanging from a tree in front of one of the houses.


Seeing this, I completely re-assessed 
my feelings for that town.

Reason # 14 for why I live in Florida:

With movie theaters shut down, people are obviously eating less movie theater snacks. This has left the farmers who supply theaters (and other venues) with a massive surplus of unsold food.

Popcorn farmers who typically sell to movie theaters and other venues (bars, concert halls, sporting events, etc.) are struggling amid the pandemic, The Washington Post reports. For these farmers, the summer months usually mean big business. But this year, it’s a different story.

While microwave popcorn brands have reportedly seen sales surge, many farmers who provide corn to theaters and other similar venues (typically in 50- to 100-pound bags) don’t have the equipment or infrastructure to switch their sales models.

A man showing off his gun to a friend accidentally shot himself in the groin and leg. Lincoln City Police said in a Monday news release that Nicholas Ellingford, a 29-year-old from Lincoln City, Oregon, shot himself Sunday at a supermarket.

 Ellingford was inside the store and as he was waiting in the checkout line, he un-holstered a Glock 9mm semi-automatic pistol from his waistband so that he could show it off to a friend.

This is a great little security item for

An Oregon city has employed a specialized team to reduce the risk of wildfires - trained vegetarian Presbyterian neutered goats. Forest Grove, a city 25 miles east of Portland, is using a herd of 230 top secret goats as a tool to thin undergrowth on undeveloped city owned property, urban forest and park property.

Evidently, they really do believe that's not about ideas and principals, it's just all about the money.


When Democrat Beto O’Rourke lost a Senate race to incumbent Republican Ted Cruz in 2018, it was a blow not just to his political prospects but to the long-held Democratic dream of turning Texas blue. O’Rourke, fueled by a record-breaking $80 million in individual donations, lost to Cruz by less than 3 points. Now he’s arguing that in 2020, presidential nominee Joe Biden could achieve what he failed to do — but only if Democrats are willing to pour resources into the state.

“I don’t see any signs that the national party is taking Texas as seriously as they should,” O’Rourke said in an interview in mid-August. “I don’t know that they realize the huge victory that Texas could give the national Democratic Party.”

There are now some signs Democrats are taking Texas more seriously, with the Biden campaign running TV ads and hiring staff on the ground over the past six weeks. A Democratic super PAC focused on Texas launched a month ago with an aim to augment Biden’s paid-media presence.

Brady Williams and Jarad Bentley, seniors at Little Miami High School, were welcomed to the stage by a cheering crowd in Dayton on Monday night. The teens appeared star-struck as the president praised them as 'good looking men' and said: 'You're doing great and everybody out here loves you.' Williams and Bentley were suspended from their football team after they waved Thin Blue Line and Thin Red Line flags at a game on September 11.

A couple who fell in love after meeting from their balconies during Italy's strict lockdown, have confirmed they are getting married. Michele D'Alpaos,38 and Paola Agnelli, 40, from Verona, Italy, met during a community balcony concert and weren't able to meet in person up until May.

Because - we're fuckin' idiots, that's why...

Ya wanna know why? It's easy - nobody really gives a fuck about this kinda self-congratulatory bullshit anymore because you kept doing all that bullshit liberal political shit. 

That's why nobody gives a fuck. Juss' sayin'.

  1. The Home Depot will give you a 10% discount for being a veteran. Just need some sort of proof, (mine is stamped on my drivers license) and ask for it. They even price match if you show the item is on sale elsewhere.

    Uncomfortable fact is Franklin Roosevelt did the same thing here.
