Just when ya think everything is upside down and everyone around you is nuts...

 You realize they really are as friggin' whacky as you thought they are and nothing around you makes sense any more... 

... 

... 

... 

... 


Don't give this a lot of thought - just fire from the hip. How many people do you know personally that are just complete fuckin' jerkoffs that would do shit like this?
 
I can think of about five without batting an eyelash. Some people can be really selfish scumbags. Juss' sayin'...

About 2 million Australians began their first full day of a strict coronavirus lockdown on Monday following the discovery of one case in the community in Perth, capital of Western Australia state, but no new cases have since been found.
 
Authorities ordered a five-day lockdown of Perth after a security guard at a hotel used to quarantine people returning from overseas was found to have contracted the virus.

This poor guy is probably never gonna have another peaceful day in his life. They - whoever THEY are - are gonna hound this fuckin' guy forever. People can be such fuckin' scumbags at times. The jerkoffs that hound people like this are the kids that never got their asses kicked in a playground. Trust me on that.

Does anyone anywhere outside some big inner-city area actually give a fuck about the NBA? 


Sitting at the bar up at the Country Club near me (don't get jacked up - it's a shithole of a CC but it's our closest local bar and the bartenders are cute) last night I noted that there was a basketball game on one of the TV's over the bar. 
 
I looked around and not a single person ever appeared to look up at it, but six or seven guys were staring dumbfoundedly at a golf thing on one TV and one lady was enthralled by a soundless game show on another. One guy was staring at the TV that had the music channel on it. Must be a racist thing that nobody gives a fuck, right?
... 

I finally bought an electric razor. 
 
This thing gives a great shave in half the time
 without lathering or any of that stuff.


For under $ 30.00, this is a good deal:

Kevin Duckett was hunting for treasure with his metal detector in a field near Market Harborough, Northamptonshire, England, when he unearthed a solid gold figurine that experts believe is part of a long-lost figurine from the crown of Henry VIII.
 
“At first I wondered if it was a crumpled foil dish from a 1970s Mr Kipling product, or even a gold milk bottle top. “I got a very loud positive signal from my detector and started to dig down before spotting something… It was lodged in the side of a hole just a few inches down.” Duckett had found a 2.5 inch, solid gold and enamel figure that has been lost for over 400 years.

Let's all start feeling really sorry for Gabe Plotkin, whose company Melvin Capital suffered massive losses in January largely due to GameStop. Even after taking a serious beating on his short positions, the guy's currently hoping to expand his $44 million Miami Beach mansion, which he bought in November. Plotkin wants to knock down a 1935 home on the plot and replace it with a tennis court, waterfront cabana and child's play area. The plans are due to be presented in the coming weeks. Plotkin exited GameStop positions last week, he confirmed. Poor bastard.

The "luxury chocolatier" Godiva announced this week it would be closing or selling all of its 128 brick-and-mortar shops in the United States and Canada by the end of March.
 
The bigger question coming out of this COVID bullshit is whether or not malls - as they exist now - can survive. I think if you're gonna short any stocks out there ya might thinks about shorting the stocks of the big mall developers. But what the fuck do I know?

Architecture meant to make 
some kinda statement? Please...


The German Parliament building has a glass dome above it and people can walk over it. This is supposedly to remind the politicians that government should be transparent, and the people are always above them. Yeah. Good luck with that Fritzi...

We are the best and the worst we are capable of. 
Depends on your perspective, right?


We are magnificent creatures at times. Not only can we get something from here on earth on to the surface of another planet (the Mars explorer above), we can see pictures this good of what we've accomplished.

This is a great gadget - plugs in to any outlet...



Find it here for only $ 14.00 bucks - grab a couple:

Is it just me or does this woman look like some kinda character from 'Beatlejuice'?


 Anyway, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot ordered 10,000 teachers to go back to classrooms and says she will punish those who refuse as union threatens to strike until all staff have been vaccinated. let's see who falters first. Bet it ain't the union.
... 

I should go now. Think about this:



... 


Everybody's got an opinion. Everybody's a fuckin' genius. Everybody's a friggin' expert. And everybody is always wrong in the end so why don't they all just shut the fuck up?

I'm tellin' ya - I gotta figure out a way 
to get in to this 'study' racket.

A 'study' of 216 men and women has found the length of index and ring fingers plays a key role in whether people eat food dubbed either 'masculine,' or 'feminine'. The study by the University of Agder found people with similar-sized index and ring fingers were more likely to pick items like burgers, full fat Coke and steak, over a salad, Diet Coke or shrimps. The length of people's fingers, referred to as the digit ratio, is linked to the amount of exposure to testosterone while in the womb.

I remember like it was yesterday going over some guys house with my father to look at a car the guy was selling. I mighta been 6 or 7 at the time. I clearly remember my old man doing exactly this.

Well said Ronnie - thanks!

I know you think this is overkill, but it's legit. I can't say this enough here. Personal safety is something that I still take very seriously. I really think you should as well.. 

Readers here have been telling me for a while now 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. 
 

There are different strengths available here:

  1. Me too on the NBA, haven't watched in years and absolutely nothing to do with politics either
    I'm a bit disappointed you've snubbed the start of Black history Month......NOT!!!
    My daughter is a school teacher in Chicago, this time I think the City has a real shot at beating the union, this is an illegal strike on their part and since a ton of the teachers are black I guarantee they can't miss more than one or 2 paychecks. My daughter and many of her white colleagues have chosen to go to work and gave the union a big FU
