When does 22 years seem like a lifetime?
1: When you're 22
2: This month
Moved back to the states from St. John 22 years ago this month. Impossible to believe.

I wonder how much kids these days are taught about what happened on December 7, 1941 and how it galvanized our nation in to action.
It's worth it to ponder how our country - as it is so polarized today - would respond to something like this happening again here.
Probably be a whole lotta pussified pacifist lefties that would need a little serious ass-kicking to get on board. Juss' sayin'.

Did I ever tell you guys
about Alabama Jack's?
When you are traveling to the Florida Keys down U.S. Highway 1, there are only two ways to get to Key largo: the '18 mile stretch' and Card Sound Road.
After leaving Homestead, the 18 mile stretch carries you down to Jewfish Creek and in to Key Largo on U.S. Highway 1. A longer route is to turn left on Card Sound Road after leaving Homestead. This road is also known as County Road 905A. This will take you through mangrove swamps to a toll bridge that crosses Card Sound and the Intracoastal Waterway onto north Key Largo.
Alabama Jack's is located on the right side of the road just before the toll booth. You can't miss it in this sparsely populated area of South Florida.
If you see a couple dozen motorcycles parked in front, don't sweat it. These are not outlaws looking for a fight, but just regular folks enjoying the laid back ambiance of one of the most unique places in this part of the state. Don't be surprised if you see some funky ole' Granny clog dancing with a biker. It's that kind of cool place.
There is a nice bar inside, and plenty of seating both inside and outside. They have good seafood, including grouper sandwiches, grilled dolphin platter, crab cake sandwiches and conch fritters. I really like their conch fritters.

For the non-seafood lovers they have hamburgers, chicken fingers, salads, buffalo wings and french fries. The food is good but not great. You don't go here for the food as much as for the experience.
If you are a conch fritter fan, you will find the ones at Alabama Jack's to be a bit different. They are not the little round doughy balls you see in other restaurants, but look more like pancakes. They are loaded with conch and some kind of secret seasoning that gives the fritters a sort of tropical taste.

The full service bar serves great margaritas and there are lots of beer, wine and hard liquor choices you can make. They often have live music, much of it in the Jimmy Buffett style.
A cautionary note about Alabama Jack's: this place is in a swamp, and bugs love this kind of environment, especially mosquitoes. Give yourself a break and lather up with a good mosquito repellent just in case you are visiting during one of those times when the little bloodsuckers are very active.
Alabama Jack's is open every day from 11 AM to 7 PM.
Best time to get there is in the early afternoon, just after the normal lunch hour. I also recommend going during the week to avoid the weekend tourist/terrorist crowds. Go. Have fun. Tell 'em I sentcha.

How nasty was Randy Johnson

Well there was that one time when he made a bird explode.

Might be a cool idea for sticking

Of course she's qualified. Why would you even think to ask that question? But I havta ask - What the fuck does a VP of Equity' do to substantiate what's probably a $ 250k salary? And before ya ask, no , she was NOT hired just because she's a black woman of colors. That's racist talk.

Somebody - anybody - that gets really sick from this COVID bullshit I feel sorry for. I do. But I did chuckle a little under my breath when I saw this. Does that make me a bad person? Because honestly, I was starting to think that Rudy's a breakfast drinker.
Giuliani, 76, says he is 'feeling good' in the hospital after his COVID diagnosis. The Arizona Legislature is shutting down following his visit - amid fears he could have infected dozens criss-crossing the US fighting election result. I'm sorry - that's funny.

What kinda fuckin' lame-brain would ever think something like this was legit? If you do, I wanna talk to you about your car's extended warranty, pay off your student loans, and I wanna lend you money for your small business...
He came off smug as fuck and she did a great job of labeling him but man does she need a haircut. And maybe if she moved her head once or twice we wouldn't think she was a talking mannequin. Juss' sayin'. Perdue told Ossoff to Fuckoff. That's pretty funny.
In the Scottish Town of Arnprior, some guy who was pissed off about the drunks driving too fast at closing time in front of his house asked the Town Council for Permission to do this. The guy painted wiggly lines on a straight road to confuse and slow down fast drivers.
Am I the only one who's noticed that are no longer giving any details about who is dying - and why and what mitigating circumstances there might be with the deaths? It's all just numbers nowadays and numbers are beginning to blur in people's minds.

Early Christmas shopping maybe?

Got a coupla mil layin' around?
The guitar is on the block at a New Jersey auction house specializing in musical instruments and other collectables. The bidding officially began Nov. 25 and ends Friday night, says auction house Gotta Have Rock and Roll in Franklin Lakes. The minimum opening bid, which hadn’t yet been placed as of Tuesday, is set at a cool $1 million.
Referring to Clapton’s long association with Fender’s revolutionary six-string, Gotta Have Rock and Roll writes: “His deep connection to the Stratocaster, which began early in his career, continued with this this ‘non-tremolo’ model 1954 sunburst Stratocaster that he used both on stage and in the studio for slide work circa 1979-1985.”
The guitar for sale lacks a tremolo arm, a signature feature of pioneering luthier Leo Fender’s Stratocaster, which debuted 66 years ago. The tremolo, or whammy bar, lets standard players bend notes or whole chords, but is redundant for a slide player, whose technique involves gliding from one note into the next, akin to a bend.

One of the drunks plowed in to his house two days after he painted the lines.

Why bother now? The election is over. Scumbags.
