I’ll close out the evening with something I came across that is also incredible, really alarming, and damned frightening.
But nowhere near as bad as incompetent US Navy officers.
Kettlebells and bottles of urine. I’m really confused now. What’s going on?

Your United States Navy The probe exposes how personal distrust led the officer of the deck, Lt. j.g. Sarah Coppock, to avoid communicating with the destroyer’s electronic nerve center — the combat information center, or CIC — while the Fitzgerald tried to cross a shipping superhighway. When Fort walked into the trash-strewn CIC in the wake of the disaster, he… Read more »
I love potato soup and used to make a great pot of it. I don’t eat it anymore because it’s all carbs. I quit using Gillette products years ago as soon as Dollar Club and Harry’s went into business. I always thought Gillette’s pricing and marketing was monopolistic and hostile. I used to make a seriously good dirty rice, but… Read more »

And if it didn’t have any legs, what did you shave?
I guess it had enough legs to kill the blog. Nobody has even criticized the way I make my potato soup without knowing how I did it like they criticized my cornbread even though I did it exactly how I was supposed to. I guess they all ran out to buy a new Gillette razor or eat some dirty rice… Read more »

#58:. That story is almost one year old, I don’t think it has any legs.
Well, it turned out to be potato soup. I found some chunks of ham in the freezer and a bit of cheddar cheese, and via the instant pot, pretty good potato soup happened. Hardest part was peeling the potatoes. And I made enough to last for a while, so slaving over the stove is on hold for a few days… Read more »
I’m still pleased, after a few years, with my Harry’s shave set. Blades cost about $2.00 each and last quite a while – super sharp. So long Gillette. Another once good American company takes the gas. Current temp out here right now is 39 degrees, so it’s cooler than predicted. I’m plumb out of cooked pinto beans, home made soup,… Read more »

I looked out the window towards the East where I can see the Galleria, Uptown, Midtown, Downtown, Chinatown, Med Center, NRG, etc and there is a haze over the city. It is something I typically associate with ground-level ozone and other assorted smog during the hot summer months. I wonder what is causing this haze.

Georgia has a lot of newspapers online and searchable. While doing genealogical research I’ve found some interesting minutia about my family.

I hear on the news that TSA is slowing down airport traffic out at intergalactic. Be nice if Trump started firing no-shows. Leading up to getting rid of TSA all together. These are just Nancy’s troopers in action – typical union thuggery.
Not to mention the company that wants to supply the rail cars. Forever. Charge for maintenance of the track. Have the government provide security because, well, terrorists.
I’ll never understand the liberals fascination with trains. These guys are claiming to be privately funded – except they will most likely need eminent domain powers to acquire their right of way. I don’t even want to get started on this boondoggle. Cheaper to buy every passenger a plane ticket or hire a private limo rather than build this train.… Read more »
Extraordinary story about Red Wolf Coyotes on Galveston Island.

Heh. That is one annoying trait of Ben’s.
Ben Shapiro IS Sparkie.
What a radio voice.
I still have one of them slots in the back of my medicine cabinet where you drop used safety razors.
Use a safety razor. They practically give the blades away ($12/100 on Amazon).
I had my toxic masculinity shaved once.
Cost me twenty bux and I itched for two weeks.
So the prodigal RHINO returns! Or did he ever leave?
