My father had a million sayings. This isn't one of them.

 'If you don't know where to start, you can never get lost'...

You could always count on Free Wheelin' Franklin 
for sage and sane advice.

This is too good not to enjoy. Take a look at the pure joy she exhibits.

Trump raves about his health and size of crowd in Ocala

This event was about 15 miles from where I am. People literally were lined up the night before for a chance to get in. The heat and the sun took their toll on the crowd - it was well in to the high 90's yesterday here. EMS attended to many of the people who suffered from heat exhaustion. Trump, who two weeks earlier had been helicoptered to Walter Reed Army Medical suffering from COVID-19, was the picture of health when he took the stage in Ocala. He pointed out that adviser Hope Hicks, who tested positive days before Trump, was traveling with him. He called Hicks to the stage, but she appeared to be bashful. Undaunted, Trump encouraged the crowd to chant, “We want Hope! - We want Hope!

I wonder if they were talking about her.

Is there such a thing as UPS Humor?
 Evidently there is - go figure.


After every flight, UPS pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet" which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight.

Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humor. Here are actual maintenance complaints submitted by UPS pilots ("P") and solutions recorded ("S") by maintenance engineers:

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.

P: Something loose in cockpit
S: Something tightened in cockpit

P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.

P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent
S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.

P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.

P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
S: DME volume set to more believable level.

P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what friction locks are for.

P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.
S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.

P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.

P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.

P: Aircraft handles funny.
S: Aircraft warned to: straighten up, fly right, and be serious.

P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.

P: Mouse in cockpit.
S: Cat installed.

P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.
S: Took hammer away from midget

You do realize of course that they all lie to us all the time.

And sometimes they lie to us by not letting us hear the truth. Amazing, isn't it?

Florida Man has nothing on these guys. Holy crap. Indian airport authorities literally struck gold when they spotted a man walking oddly — and discovered he had about 2 pounds in bullion shoved into his rectum, according to a report.
 
The GoAir passenger arrived from Dubai on Tuesday at Kerala’s Kannur Airport, where he tried to avoid paying an 18 percent tax on his precious nuggets by smuggling them where the sun don’t shine, The National reported.
 
Officials at the Air Intelligence Unit mined the stash, worth about $60,000, from the unidentified smuggler’s butt, according to the news outlet.
 
Another passenger on the same flight was caught carrying more than 3 pounds of gold, though officials did not disclose if that traveler had concealed it the same way.

Amazon’s big Prime Day 2020 sale only lasted for two days this year instead of a full week like last year. It was packed so full of crazy deals, however, that I wasn’t sure what Amazon might have left ahead of the holidays this year. Well, we now have our answer — and it’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before.
 
The Holiday Dash sales event takes Black Friday and makes it a month-long affair. Crazy new deals will continue to pop up every single day during the sales event, and Amazon claims they’ll be “Black Friday-worthy” deals with huge discounts on popular products. That’s a pretty lofty claim, but so far Amazon is definitely delivering on its promise. 
 
As an Amazon Associate, I may make a small commission on certain items you may buy if you go to Amazon from here. I really DO appreciate when people do that. Those commissions are what keep the lights on and the beer cold around here.

He is pretty popular around this part of the state, I'll give him them props.

These are certainly strange times - there's very little to doubt about that. To this line of thinking, it might be good to realize that something as fearsome as this might fit very smartly under the front seat of your car or truck, if ya know what I mean...

I'm starting to think the people who are editing the news these days are all nine years old and they're doing it from the playground. How fuckin' infantile can ya get? Juss' sayin'...

This past week would have been Chuck Berry's 94th Birthday. Here he is with the Mick in 1969... If you don't know how significant Berry was to rock music, you don't know shit. Juss' sayin'.

Mayor Bill de Blasio spared no expense to burnish the image of his wife, Chirlane McCray — but like many of his big bucks plans it all came to nothing. Hizzoner the fuckin' dooshtool's effort to use millions in tax payer money to make McCray a political star came crashing down this week when the city’s First Lady changed course and declared she would not run for Brooklyn Borough President.
 
Throughout his time in office de Blasio set McCray up to follow in the family’s politics biz, including giving her a staff that in recent years grew to a size larger than any First Lady’s in recent memory. The McCray team had a $2 million payroll, and as recently as August included a chief-of-staff, senior adviser, speechwriter and a videographer.  At one point civil rights activist and political heavy hitter Rachel Nordlinger was McCray’s top lieutenant.

Murals, properly executed, are very worthy public art.


St. Petersburg’s Shine Mural Festival is going to feature only Florida artists this year. The festival returns with a lineup focused on local and state creators, and it's always a lot of fun. A mural by the Vitale Brothers, St. Petersburg at the local business Techno-Solis, Inc. during the Shine Mural Festival in 2019. The festival returns Nov. 7-14, 2020. 
 
Do they do stuff like this up by where you guys live? I hope so.

The visual representation of my life these days. 
Kinda pathetic, really.

I am NEVER ever gonna pay $ 40 or more 
again for jeans - not when these are available...



Cheaper even than what you can get at any WalMart or Rural King - 
and they're well made and durable. 
Did I mention they're less than $ 15.00?

The Hexagonal Rocks of Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland. I've been there - it's really fascinating - like what the fuck coulda possibly made this shit do what it did?

I'll leave ya with this:

If you're interested, Open House New York will offer a virtual tour of the Woolworth Building’s lobby this weekend

You should certainly know by now that this is the brand and style of the knife I carry every day of my life. 

I discovered that they also offer a slightly larger version 
of the same knife. I may be changing my ways here.


Take a look at this knife and see if it wouldn't 
be the perfect pocket knife for you:

If something like this isn't right-pegging your give-a-fuck meter, you're probably already dead and ya don't know it. 
 

Why the fuck would anyone at CNN ever think that anybody 0 ANYWHERE - would possibly give a flying rat's ass fuck about anything this fuckin' broad - whoever the fuck she thinks she is - has to say about anything? 
 
There is just entirely TOO MUCH MEDIA. 
Juss' sayin'...
... 


This is pretty cool. This is a southern black guy who's a Trump-supporting Democratic Georgia state Representative. Vernon Jones crowd-surfed at a MAGA rally - without a mask - as he slams 'corrupt Joe Biden'. Awe inspiring I say. Guy's got a lot of balls if nothing else.

Maybe easily one of the stupidist fuckin' live action/puppet/cartoon show ever in the history of ever on TV? That's the way I'd describe it.

Can't get away with not throwing in a shot for my wife - there'd be no living with her, if ya know what I mean... 

Want to find something nice 
for your wife or girlfriend? 
Even better - let them get something nice for themselves...


My wife's jewelry is now available on Etsy. It's really nice stuff and the prices include free shipping to almost anywhere!
