Did’ja miss me? I didn’t have time to post the last two days because I was working hard on the outdoor table the missus wants me to finish sooner than later. I’ve finished the construction phase and am now on to the sanding and finishing stage. The frame is old lumber we had milled fromContinue reading “July 12, 2020”

Several times over the past four months the missus and I have talked about how lucky we are to be retired and not have our former businesses to deal with during these crazy times. She had a flower shop and I had deli restaurants, both industries that have been hit hard by the pandemic. MyContinue reading “July 9, 2020”

So, when I woke up in the middle of the night last night when Ideas always seem to be bouncing around, which keep me awake for I’m not sure how long, I thinks to myself, people are probably getting sick and tired of me rambling about that despicable tRump or the latest coronavirus news (thatContinue reading “July 7, 2020”

I hope you survived the holiday weekend without setting your overly sanitized hands on fire lighting your sparklers and M-80’s and were able to stay home away from the crowds and traffic congestion. If you were out and about on Friday you probably observed the tremendous amount of traffic on the roads. I had aContinue reading “July 6, 2020”

Well, it looks like we survived and made it through “firecracker day” without an earth shattering announcement, other than the seven-day average of cases in the United States set a record for the 26th straight day. Nationwide, the rolling seven-day average for new cases was 48,361 on Saturday, up 11,740 from a week ago. But,Continue reading “July 4, 2020”

As we approach the Independence Day holiday this weekend, it would be fitting to talk about the “Revolution” that is happening today, 244 years after we gained our independence from Britain during the first American Revolution. In my opinion, today’s revolution will be seen historically as coming from the killing of George Floyd and otherContinue reading “July 2, 2020”

Well here we are folks. The last day of June, a few days from the Independence Day holiday, and a few months into the beginning of a new way of life in America. And you know what? I don’t think people are getting it. Just like the “Bunker Boy,” there are numbers of folks whoContinue reading “June 30, 2020”

Wow! If the NY Times report that Russia was paying the Taliban bounties to kill American troops in Afghanistan is accurate, and Putin’s lapdog tRump knew about it since March and did nothing about it, we are in deep trouble, comrades. This is just one more example of his lack of respect for our militaryContinue reading “June 28, 2020”

The tRump administration’s game plan for communicating about the coronavirus whenever they are in front of a camera is pretty obvious right now. First, lie about it being contained and assure the American people and U.S. businesses that it is under control. Second, make untruthful statements that the number of new cases is on aContinue reading “June 26, 2020”

If you have been following this blog, you know I have been saying that people are getting too complacent about the coronavirus and trying too hard to return to their normal daily routines without the protections of masks, social distancing, and common sense. People just want to get back to their normal routine without havingContinue reading “June 24, 2020”
