And you thought June 6, 1944 was 'The Longest Day'...

 Today is gonna suck no matter what side of the fence your pants are snagged on. 

There's a reasonable chance I may not turn on any 
electronics today (after I finish posting, that is)... 

... 


I'm still curious what dog Facebook has in this hunt. This shit has been popping up on my wall every day for two months now. WTF do they care?
... 


And again - this popped up this morning in the 'Memories' thing. Four years ago today? Yikes that went too fast. That shit's scary.

Joe Biden nabbed the first tiny victory of Election Day — winning all 5 votes in a small New Hampshire town that holds a tradition of counting their votes at midnight. The final vote tally at Dixville Notch, New Hampshire — which is among three towns that tally their election results after midnight — was drawn on a poster board moments after the clock struck 12 a.m.
 
In the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton won the Dixville Notch vote. Then, the town, which is close to the Canadian border, had a total of 8 voters.

Really was probably the second best war movie ever made. Helluva cast of characters, too.

A group of pro-gun organizations filed a federal lawsuit in New Jersey Monday alleging the firearm laws in the state that prevent most residents from being able to carry a handgun outside their home are unconstitutional.
 
The Second Amendment Foundation, the Firearms Policy Coalition and the New Jersey 2nd Amendment Society allege in the lawsuit that New Jersey’s “oppressive criminal statutes” deny residents “their fundamental, individual right to bear loaded, operable handguns outside the home." The lawsuit also challenges the process gun owners must go through in order to obtain a permit to carry a handgun.
 
Currently in New Jersey, gun owners without a permit can only possess handguns in their homes or places of business, or while traveling to and from target practicing, in which the gun must be unloaded and locked in a container throughout the entire trip. Those who unlawfully carry a handgun are subjected to a second-degree felony and up to 10 years of imprisonment. The lawsuit claims it is a violation of the law-abiding gun owners' right to bear arms for self-defense.

New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom is trying to win the NL Cy Young Award for the third year in a row. According to ESPN, “DeGrom could join Randy Johnson and Greg Maddux as the only pitchers to win at least three consecutive Cy Young Awards.” But look for Cincinnati Reds ace Trevor Bauer to end deGrom’s run.

In my humble opinion, there should be NO awards for players this year. Juss' sayin' the season was that fuckin' stupid it shouldn't count anywhere but in the player's personal stats.

It's like I keep saying - it's ALL about perspective. There's five different headlines about the election - which one do you go to first?
... 

I keep three of these in my truck now. 
One for electrical tools, one for hand tools, 
and one for plumbing.  

GREAT little bag at a great price - UNDER $ 13.00 each!

You and I know full well that our vote may matter, but in the end, no matter's who's in charge we have little or no control of the stupid shit they may or may not do while they're in office. 
 
I live my life the same way no matter who's in charge. The only difference is I'll make a lot more fun of them if I don't like 'em.

Guess what dickhead - if Trump is re-elected, you're fucked. And sadly, so's the City.

Mayor de Blasio is hoping a federal stimulus package akin to FDR’s New Deal will help curtail crime. 
de Blazio also said if Joe Biden is elected president, New Yorkers should expect a stimulus deal that will help get the city “back on its feet” and combat a spike in murders, shootings and burglaries.
 
“If Joe Biden’s elected president, the most likely time for a major stimulus is February, and I’m thinking along the lines of the New Deal, and he’s obviously talking about emulating FDR,” the mayor said. “The second we have that New York City’s in a position to address a whole host of issues, avert layoffs, but also to do a lot of positive things,” he added.

Joan Baez and Jimi Hendix -

I musta missed this one - any of you guys ever see one?
... 

When Derek Jeter was a free agent following the 2010 season the Yankees told him to shop for deals. Of course, Jeter returned on a three-year deal for $51 million and played the final season of a Hall of Fame career for $12 million in 2014.
 
So if the Yankees did that with Jeter a decade ago, it’s not out of the question they will ask DJ LeMahieu to do the same this offseason.

This is a very popular item these days, and these days are pretty fuckin' bizarre, so it makes sense. 

People have told me that not only are they buying them for themselves,  they're buying them for their kids, their girlfriends and their wives. I think that's a great idea. Better safe than sorry is the best way to be these days.. 



There are a couple different strengths available here - find the one that's right for you:

And double that sentiment for singers and actors. Gimme a muthafuckin' break ya buncha fuckin' morons. Why would anybody ever possibly give a flying rat's ass fuck what Lady Dipshit thinks about anything?

Walmart scrapped plans to let these 6-foot-tall robots check inventory at stores, after reportedly finding that it's simpler to let humans do the job

This fat fuckin' drealock wearin' piece of shit don't say word fuckin' one about Antifa and BLM fuckin' up whole cities, but this? What a fuckin' jerkoff. Please lady, just go the fuck away and shut up.

Ya see, if what my wife says would be the case, we wouldn't havta board up shit. We'd just 'shoot the motherfuckers dead where they stand'. She's a pisser that lady.

This is the Union Station bar in St. Louis. THAT my friends is (or maybe was) one helluva fuckin' great bar to hang at.
... 


I'm tellin' ya - this is still only the first wave in a storm. Bankruptcies take debt of the books of the filing companies, but fucks the lenders to the point where businesses won't be able to find fresh capital. This shit is gonna roll down a big fuckin' hill for a long fuckin' time my friends.

  1. That picture of the bar at Union Station In StL with those wonderful terrazzo floors would make any self respecting dago proud. Two of my uncles were terrazzo men and all of us other cousins and uncles at least knew how to finish concrete, it's in our blood. They don't fuck around there in Russia do they? I saw this article about the demise of the Sausage King yesterday. Crossbow huh? pretty inventive I'd say

  3. I've been to Union Station many times. Just to the left of that image is a famous Tiffany window-https://www.stlouisphotos.com/stlouisphotos/art_print_products/bob-moore-allegorical-window-0126?product_gallery=51559&product_id=2588223#:~:text=Allegorical%20Window%20at%20Saint%20Louis%20Union%20Station%20The,Hall%20at%20Saint%20Louis%20Union%20Station.%201%20Material-in that arch, which also is all Tiffany.

    I was there before it was renovated and when it was a big farmer's market with tons of small stalls where vendors were selling everything you could imagine. That beautiful bar looks like it's undergone yet another renovation. It's also most likely all of the windows and the decoration is Tiffany. He was a master interior decorator besides the greatest glass artist that ever lived.

    Union Station is used in Escape from New York in a scene where Kurt and some huge guy are in a boxing ring and he kills him with a bat that has a huge spike in it.
