How much money is pissed away on stupid stuff? You'd be shocked if you knew.

The one thing that always gets my goat is how much money is wasted decorating hospitals...

How many hundreds of millions of dollars have been wasted decorating the interiors and the outside of hospitals in this country? Seems like a tragic silly ego-driven waste of resources doesn't it? I don't mean that they should all look like some communist block box, but some of what they do is crazy. That money could go towards saving lives, couldn't it?

...

This is hilarious. If you have to waste

money, here's a great idea.

I have nothing to do with these guys -except for the fact that I ordered one for my truck. Here's the link:

Did you realize that there are people out there who follow Big Bird on Twitter? Next time you're in a supermarket or just a crowd of any kind, look around you. Carefully. Ya never know...

The Iron Dome air defense system shooting down

incoming rockets in Israel. Just amazing technology.

I'm always impressed by this technology, even though it's kinda sad that they have to have it in the first place, but those friggin' Palestinians do like to toss rockets at them for some reason. Here's something to think about too - ya do realize that they are some big-ass fuckin' bullets they're throwing up there at those rockets. What happens to all those bullets that don't hit the target. I doubt if they keep going upward forever. Juss' sayin' - somebody's gotta end up with a bullet rain shower somewhere...

I've told you on numerous occasions how absolutely fuckin' abysmal the bread here in Florida is. There's no way around it - the bread here is baked for people with no taste and no teeth. Oh, and if ya do find some kinda reasonable facsimile that might approach being good bread, it goes friggin' stale in the car going home. Must be the humidity or something.

So anyway, I've decided 'fuck 'em' and I'm baking my own bread from now on. This is the loaf I baked last night. We call this style of bread 'Pizza Bread' since I was a kid. No matter what ya call it, it was fuckin' crazy good.

Travel across land borders from Canada and Mexico has been largely restricted to workers whose jobs are deemed essential after Donald Trump imposed the ban in March 2020 as Covid-19 spread around the world. At the San Ysidro crossing port at Tijuana, Mexico (pictured) street vendors were taking food to drivers stuck in the line-ups at customs as thousands of Mexicans, many of them separated from their families for months, are set to pour across the frontier today. At Niagara Falls there was a long line of cars and RVs stretching across the Rainbow Bridge as Canadians head over from Ontario to New York state for some long-awaited US tourism. Rival airlines British Airways and Virgin Atlantic operated synchronized departures at 8.30am from London Heathrow to New York JFK to celebrate the end of the travel ban. The easing will see thousands of Britons flying to America to reunite with loved ones for the first time in more than 600 days.
