    Getting older, forgetting stuff and 'new' TV shows

    Just back from the back porch. A distance of 23-25'... I got there, but I forgot why I went, so I'm back. But sometimes I have good days... For instance, I didn't know about this Kapernick kneeling thing for at least two weeks after he first did it. Hell, I didn't know the Oakland A's won...

    I’m Sorry :(

    I ain't White, but I, too, have zero fucks to give. and to tell you how unrepentant *I* am, two weeks ago I made a special trip to the store and bought some Aunt Jemima's Syrup and a box of Unca Ben's Rice so's to have them near the pool table as a coupla token playas. It's a shame that the only...

    Very nice! but the board is 90* off. It should be set so a white square is in the right corner. That would put the kings and queens on the correct beginning squares. As it is now, the white queen is on her color, but that should be left of the king. The black queen is in the correct position...

    I'm no expert but my impression is that the '38 was designed about 5-7 years after the 110; that's a lot of time in "technological progress" time. Also, the 38 was a single-seater built solely as a fighter/interceptor. The 110 was designed as a fighter-bomber and required 2 or 3 crewmen as I...

    Im in El Paso for a week looking

    When I've stopped at the check point I've been told multiple times "don't stop". There are supposedly too many dangerous illegal aliens. Once when I was stopped at the side of the highway checking my trailer (I was towing personal property during a house move) a trooper stopped and after...

    Old woman destroyed my boat.

    I'm a former auto painter. The shop I worked in specialized in Corvettes. Your damage is routine for anyone who's repaired bodywork on a Corvette. As one person said, "there's plenty to work with there".

    Maggie’s Grandpa’s memory box

    The writing on the flag would be from friends, neighbors and relatives. It's a souvenir banner each soldier took with him when he left home, with (last) good wishes and signatures from everyone he knew. As I recall, the practice of giving banners/flags to soldiers originated in remote villages...

    Disgusting HS Halftime Show

    Why the F didn't someone open up on them as soon as the "assault rifles" became visible?? It's Missi'ppi. I guarantee there were CCWs in the bleachers.

    Do the Needful ?.....

    Akin to my thoughts... Listening to that motherfucker reminded me how much I hated working in Silicon Valley IT. Talking to our overseas staff in order to configure "cloud" hardware was always excruciating. It did leave me with a good story though... I once had to create an account for one...
