It's too easy to make bad jokes about current events and politicians and it seems like that's all that show does anymore...
I do have to admit that I haven't watched it
live - when it airs - in the last 30 years.
Any body know who that is without doing a Google image search?
...
That being the case, he and I should keep
a good couple of hours open for that discussion...

Mo Green was a miserable prick. He said that
as if it was some kinda bad thing or something.
... My father used to say 'Be careful what you wish for' to me all the time. I'm thinking it meant whatever you want is probably gonna bite you in the ass someday. Like this:
Ya know why she was posing like that? Because we're idiots, that's why.
We're adle-brained idiots. And thank god for that.

NASA's Spirit Mars rover created these tracks shortly after touching down in 2004 to execute a turn, not amuse its handlers - or so NASA says. I say bullshit. There was a juvenile engineer in the control room that day. No doubt about it. Good for him.

Man, do I need a substantial road trip.
I can imagine you do, too...

This is a great little gizmo to have in an emergency.
Especially when the power goes out from storms
like they've had this last week.

Thankfully they're finally starting to put at least Cuomo's feet to the fire.
All of these jerkoffs should be tried for manslaughter in every case.
Fuckin' morons, acting with unlimited power and very limited intellect.

This is where the development that I live. It ain't no friggin' retirement joint like anything you saw in the movie 'Cocoon'. That I can tell ya...
The Villages was voted the 2nd best place to 'retire' in Florida.
Believe it or not, this bridge over Hwy 27/441 is for golf carts only. It's estimated that there are 55,000 golf carts here in the Villages.
Located about an hour north of Orlando, The Villages was not even called “The Villages” when it first began. It actually started as a mobile home park called Orange Blossom Gardens. Though it struggled in the early years, the community experienced staggering growth in the mid-1980’s because the community offered an impressive collection of amenities. As that amenities-focused community continued to grow and develop, it eventually evolved into The Villages, which has become the premiere model for what a master-planned community should be.
Today, The Villages is known for having the largest and most diverse collection of amenities of any community on the planet. Residents have access to an amazing collection of golf courses, recreation centers, and town squares, as well as an unparalleled number of clubs covering just about any topic you can imagine. With all of the advantages that The Villages offers to its residents, it is no wonder that it consistently ranks as the fastest growing community in the entire country. There were an astounding 2,452 new homes sold here in 2020.

Hey, ya know what? Here's the thing: She's such a dooshbag, if that was the only reason he did it - to piss her off - I'd be okay with that.

I had an opportunity to work on a movie (as a set carpenter) with Mark Linn-Baker (He played Benjy Stone in the film My Favorite Year and Larry Appleton in the television sitcom Perfect Strangers) back in 1991. It was a made-for-TV movie called 'Bare Essentials and most of it was shot on St. John while I was living there. Not exactly 'Gone with the winds' but it paid well at that time - here's a shot of the crew while we were on-set (that's me far left with the beer in my hand):
You can't imagine what a funny, nice guy he was - and probably still is. All of the other actors (Gregory Harrison, Lisa Hartmann and a bunch other semi-names) were complete stuck-up jerkoffs.
If you've never seen 'My Favorite Year' with him and Peter O'toole, it's a great flick.
Here's the trailer:

Imagine seeing this out
your airplane window?
Yeah - I can't imagine this not completely
scaring the shit outta me. Nah - not me.
A United Airlines flight bound for Hawaii was forced to make an emergency landing shortly after taking off from Denver after suffering major damage to one of its engines and dropping huge pieces of debris over a neighborhood in Colorado. Flight UA328, which was carrying 231 passengers and 10 crew members, suffered serious engine failure shortly after takeoff from Denver at 15,000 feet.
There were no reported injuries either on board or on the ground. The Boeing 777-200, which was scheduled to fly to Honolulu in Hawaii, diverted back to Denver and landed safely about 40 minutes after takeoff. 'Flight 328 from Denver to Honolulu experienced an engine failure shortly after departure, returned safely to Denver and was met by emergency crews as a precaution.
The Broomfield Police Department posted photos on Twitter showing large, circular pieces of debris leaning against a house in the suburb about 25 miles north of Denver. Police are asking that anyone injured come forward. One officers said it was a miracle nobody on the ground was hurt. No shit, Officer Sherlock.

Here ya go - Here's a father giving his kids a bath in the ruins of a war. It's frightening to me how some of us can be so compassionate at times and so cruel at others.
There's gotta be a different way of settling our issues and differences than wars. Territorial-ism is ridiculous.
You are from where you're from only because that's where your parents were when you got spit out. No more, no less. Don't read me wrong here. I'm no one-worlder by any stretch of the imagination.
I'm just saying it's the kinda thing like the only reason you speak English as a first language is because that's what your parent chose for you to speak. Ya follow me yet?

I keep track on a fairly regular basis of where the readers that come here actually come FROM. I'm delighted to see that fully one half of the readers of this blog come here directly.
That means they either have it in their 'favorites' or they have it bookmarked in their browsers. Either way, that makes me feel very proud. Do you visit regularly? Do you have it bookmarked? Let me know in the comments section. I like the feedback.
I hope I never let you guys down. If I ever meet any of you out there in saloonland, I might even buy ya a beer.

Here's another new gadget I really like.

I should leave you with something a bit more 'uplifting' to think about this morning:
If this is what 'woke' is, no thanks.
I'll stay asleep.

I hope this guy does turn around. He's got plenty of power if he makes contact, and he's gotten better at calling games and not giving up passed balls. He does has a friggin' rocket gun to second, but he's not as clutch a hitter as he can or should be. Earn yer keep Gary. You might be pretty damn good after all. We'll see.
...
Anybody else wanna see AOC pass a few balls?
If he wasn't such a darling of the left ya think'd they'd be burying this the way they are? Bullshit - they'd have it on the front page of every paper in the country. Here we go again. Four more years of this kinda bullshit. Great.

I was on a C-117 once (military version of the DC-3) We had just taken off from Okinawa headed for Iwakuni when the cockpit door opened, and the co-pilot runs out and looked out the window. Naturally, we all looked too, and saw oil streaming out of the engine. Our flight could not have lasted two minutes, because we turned around and landed on the same runway we had just left. Then, we got to wait three days while they flew in a replacement engine.
ReplyDeleteWell played. That would scare the fuck outta me...
DeleteI'm still glad to help with your hits. Is etsy pretty good from your Wife's point of view? I've been thinking (for years) of trying it for my work.
ReplyDeleteShe does fairly well with it. The guys here have certainly given her a nice boost and been very supportive. She sold about 30 items for Valentines because of the link up. Check her page out...
DeleteLoved “My FavoriteYear” especially the scene when PeterO’Toole is relieving himself in the Women’s washroom and the old lady walks in and says “ why sir this is for ladies and O’Toole turns around and says “So is this,but every once in awhile I have to let a little water through it
ReplyDeleteGreat line. Also - I need my Alan Swans as big as I can get them...
