I had to come in and take a rest, so thought I would ramble a little bit. Had a cord of firewood delivered on Saturday and today is such a beautiful, warm day, I wanted to take advantage of it and start the stacking process. The firewood rack is 100 feet from the pile, ofContinue reading “June 22, 2020”

This is gonna be a quickie, comrades. It’s been a busy couple of days and I haven’t had time to sit down and share my thoughts with you in a rambling, but there is an overabundance of material to chat about. It is now 7:00 pm Pacific Time at the homestead, so the cult gatheringContinue reading “June 20, 2020”

Last night I took a book from the shelves of my library that I think was from a college class back in the late 60’s. The title is “The Medium is the Massage,” by Marshall McLuhan and has a copyright date of 1967. I opened to the middle of the book and on that pageContinue reading “June 18, 2020”

Ugh! The gym hasn’t seen this once perfectly sculpted body (LOL) since March 11th and I’m beginning to feel like a miniature Donnie boy. We’re eating healthy, drinking too much, and haven’t done our walks for awhile. Prior to quarantine I’d workout four and sometimes five days a week and felt great. Now I readContinue reading “June 17, 2020”

It looks like tRump has given the V(ery) P(athetic) Pence his marching orders. ‘Get out there and create an illusion,’ ‘The economy has recovered and the coronavirus is in check.’ “Yes, sir. I’m on it.” So he goes out and writes an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal today that is far from reality,Continue reading “June 16, 2020”

Wow, the Donald and all of his conservative, evangelical, holy roller, gun-toting, immigrant hating comrades had a little surprise this morning from the Supreme Court of the United States. First, in a 6 to 3 ruling, with two of the conservative judges voting with the liberals, the Court ruled that Title VII of the CivilContinue reading “June 15, 2020”

The code of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. “A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”  Then why in hell is “General Bone Spur” allowed to give the Commencement Address at the US Military Academy this morning? The West Point cadets were summoned back to the campus, where 15Continue reading “June 13, 2020”

Well we had our first “date night” last night since we were up at Skyway on March 15th for St. Paddy’s day music. They have reopened for “take-out,” but being friends of Tom and Tracie we were able to have our meal out back in their outside dining area with our friends John and Marci.Continue reading “June 12, 2020”

I haven’t rambled much about the coronavirus lately other than to give my concluding message about staying safe and healthy, wash your hands, and keep your social distance. It appears that perhaps the virus is starting to come back to the forefront as we see a sharp increase in cases across the country. Quarantine fatigueContinue reading “June 11, 2020”

It’s Junember here at the house. It’s been “raining cats and dogs” for two days, and as my father-in-law would say, “it’s colder than a witches tit.” The good news is that it has given us a short reprieve from working in the yard and allows some inside time. The missus can sew and workContinue reading “June 9, 2020”
