    Testing,…. 🎅
    BTW; I saw Hamous’ #88 last night and it was a small rectangular box that was empty in the center so I thought it was a dead battery, this morning it shows up as a beer. Then I saw #92.

    I clicked on “Jingle Bells” #114 last night and noticed the four girls’ hair, Brunette, Blonde, Black, (on drums) and the other one has Auburn hair?

    #3, I guess that would be Sarah on bass. In better lighting I’d say a redhead. The Jingle Bells vid is only a day or two old. Now that you mention it the drummer, Amber, tired of being blond or they have another one.

    Biden Leads Sanders, O’Rourke in Iowa Democratic Caucus Poll.

    The poll shows Biden leading among a field of 20 potential candidates, followed by Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and Texas Representative Beto O’Rourke. The poll asked likely caucusgoers who their top choice for president would be among potential candidates for their party’s nomination.

    The Iowa poll found 32 percent of likely caucusgoers prefer Biden, with 19 percent selecting Sanders as their first choice, and O’Rourke at 11 percent. Featured lower in the list of possible Democrats were Senators Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker.

    The Iowa caucuses are the first nominating contest in the quadrennial U.S. presidential race. Winning there is no guarantee, though, that a candidate will go on to secure the party’s nomination, since the people who participate in the event are not especially representative of the party’s supporters nationwide, or even in Iowa.

    Joe “The D!p$#!t” Biden leads in the Iowa Caucus poll.
    If Biden is the answer, then it must be a really stupid question.

    And you don’t want to post when you’re not feeling so fresh.

    Beto will be the Dem nominee. You heard it here first. He’s a white Obama with some Kennedyesque thrown in who sounds like a latino. Don’t worry about these early polls when Beto hasn’t even begun to work the corn farmers and smear every word of his speeches with with pig shxx icing. He will be the nominee.

    I was just checking to see if my emojis still don’t work here.
    They don’t.

    I am still tired from my 2 hrs+ duty yesterday as the HOA Nazi greeter for the Santa Claus event. Non-stop standing and walking. Then another 2 hrs last night as 3 of us Nazis drove around and checked out all the holiday decorations. At least that task was comfortably seated. We had about 100 participating homes to consider and argue over, and only 4 winning signs. 2 of our categories had instant winners, as the first home we saw that fit the bill had no competitors. The other 2 categories, Most Traditional and Wow Factor, had 3 and 4 contenders, so there was a lot of revisiting that had to be done to reach consensus. I have to go out again tonight and take photos of the winners.

    The only way I’ve found to get emojis to work is to paste the hexadecimal code directly. Your fancy Apple fanboi instant emojis won’t work.

    Yes, I can type a happy face the old fashioned way and it will work. I don’t know the code for any others and don’t really care. 🙂

    I took a few things out to the car to donate to the thrift shop. I’m trying to declutter, but it’s slow going. I did a lot of decluttering about a year ago, but today the focus was the top of my big freezer by our back door.

    I’ll never have to buy another extension cord again. I found a bag to put them in, so now they’re all together and easy to find.

    I found some cleaning supplies that may have been leftover from some apartment cleaning. Some of them found a home, others may be put into an “apartment cleaning stuff bin”.

    Then there was the trash. Dust bunnies are gone.

    I was in a cleaning mood, but had to eventually come to my desk. It sucks when I’m in the mood to really clean, but responsibilities make me stop. Those white tornado moods should really be indulged when they occur.

    I kept my “pasty white pretender” sign. Figgered it’d come in handy again.

    Beto comes to San Saba and surrounding area – an after-action report from the Austin American Statesman yesterday.

    Actually that is not true. I just overlay a snippit of code over the hambone website and click an emoji code in that snippit and it is pasted for me thus I have cut my emoji pasting problems down to zip. If you want true computing power to simplify your life get a Mac, oh yeah and learn to code.

    Market has tanked ever since the rEgressiveCrats took back the House of eel Repute but don’t look for the Newspeak Media Pimps to ever equate the two or for MSNewSpeakD’s Mr Potato Head and his butt buddy, The Spitter Matthews, to say anything about it.

    Deep State is rigging the market so Betoff can blow his wad in 2020.

    Wow, Texas Football magazine, which is a big deal among Texas football fans at all levels, named SS Head Coach Fikac (pronounced like peacock except with a f) as it Texas high school coach of the year. That’s among all schools, not just the dipstick 2As, but all of them. Great acknowledgment of what he has accomplished out here in no man’s land.

    Scroll over to about the 16 minute point to hear the coach discussion.

    At first everything stopped on my screen after the 10:51 post, thus my #55 above question. Perhaps my computer was cranky or there was a power glitch out here.

    Have to go back and read the rest of today’s posts tomorrow morning.
