  1. fify. Missed it by two toes.
  2. 14 seconds left 3rd
  3. I got the first shot four hours ago. I figured it would be a good long weekend to lay on the couch and watch football if I feel like crap, with an extra day on Monday to recover. 🤞 pharmacist told me that Louisiana is one of the states that will require a doctors prescription to get a Covid vaccine (unless you are an old or an asthmatic, etc.) Good thing nobody under the age of 65 died from Covid last time.
  4. We are having that anyway, because Trump caused it with his bullshit tariffs. Now when that happens, Trump will tell Cletus that it was the socialist/communist/liberals fault. And nobody will bet me on this.
  5. I was in Humboldt County, California last month visiting several Redwood forest preserves, and learned that climate change is reducing the mist that is ever present on the west side of the coastal mountain ranges where redwoods are found. It seems they get most of their water (despite the abundant rainfall), from the fog and mist. Climate changed could kill them all if they can no longer grow in fog. Avenue of the Giants was cool though.
  6. it’s a post from the X site, which used to be called Twitter, but that’s not important right now…
  7. Per Trump: this ruling is the end of America. The “dangerous, diplomatic embarrassment” is the key take away from a couple posts above. He has been on a narcissist’s high, controlling the world’s economy with his whims every day. They took away his new toy. He will have an epic tantrum.
  8. Oh man, Thomas is going to get a new RV!
  9. “Oh, KEY data. I thought you said. KEEN data… that data is not so keen for us.”
  10. TMC bush meat black market might include bats from College Station.
  11. That was a really good play call. Too easy.
  12. Unfortunately, it probably won’t be the last.
  13. Yeah…. I remember my babysitter scolding me because I was booing President Eisenhower‘s TV address - which had preempted my Mickey Mouse Club show….. but I’m not old.
  14. IRL he chose his mother’s maiden name his senior year. Quitter.
  15. That is exactly what I instructed my man-servant to do. Oddly, I have not heard from that ungrateful wretch Julio. He has disappeared without a word, despite the fact that his contract requires three years of service before he earns time off. However, whilst playing whist at The Club, I will sometimes pointedly ‘harumph’ when someone makes a point I find distasteful.
  16. Sorry to hear that, bro. If I knew the contact information for Keith Richards human parts dealer I would do you a solid.
  17. I had a high school classmate who would often bring up similar word usage changes. I wonder whatever happened to Bobby Queer?
  18. Enemies? Do your own research. MD Anderson makes money curing cancer. How much more money would they make if more people had cancer?
  19. I did not catch the name of the guy on Bloomberg last night driving home from work around 7:45 pm, but the man was definitely onboard the “stagflation pain is a-coming” train. He did say that he does not think the tariff pain will really hit till second quarter 2026. It just feels like the market will go up and Wall Street will keep dancing on the deck of the Titanic. I told my adult kids and several of my friends who don’t watch the news at all that that they would be well-served to immediately go into asset preservation mode, NOT undertake new debt, keep your old car and pay off every credit card now in case you lose your job soon - and to grow your emergency savings as much as possible. I’d rather be a mistaken old crank if I’m wrong than see people I like and love suffer more next year if that could have been avoided some if they’d taken different steps this year
