    How about them Astros?
    Well, I don’t really need a 53 Red Belly, Ford Jubilee but this one sure is nice, Laura, the operator ain’t bad either. 😉

    Hanging up Scrappy seemed to have worked. Astros should wrap this up tomorrow.

    There are two types of space in the universe.  The “space” we see that God hung the stars in and then there is the space between Reece Witherspoons ears.  Good grief i could not imagine waking up to that air head every morning.

    About the Astros, I don’t know who Gerrit Cole is, but he can throw a baseball!
    Having not watched much baseball in a while, I was amazed at how good the pitching was on both sides and I love the strike zone square and the MPH reading, I could always tell if it was a ball or strike. I don’t know how the umpires call them correctly most of the time and I can see how it would be easy to miss one. Can you imagine watching the ball coming at you at 100 MPH, stepping into it and whacking it to the stars, only to find out that it ducked to left at the last second? Sometimes the batters would just stare in awe that they missed.

    Who is Reece Witherspoons?

    Did you hear about the actress that stabbed her husband?!?

    Really? Who?

    I can’t remember her name, it was Reese something…

    Witherspoon?

    No, with her knife.

    This gizmo is a nice idea, but it is only really effective where there is lots of humidity.
    The article neglected to include how much electricity was needed to produce the 800 liters of water/day. How many solar cells would be required to produce that much juice?

    What are the odds that Nanny Bloomers enters the D clown show? What are your his chances of success? Will Felonia von Panduit cackle her way in? Will the presumed need more nominee make it past the first ballot at the convention? Is there any lower limit to the depravity of the Ds?

    Morning gang.  A thin cloud cover this morning kept it a little warmer overnight, but basically 0 wind and very pleasant this morning.  Thankfully I have a day off from rooting for the Astros, as it takes a lot of energy to keep that highly charged interest keen and finely honed day after day.  A day to recharge the old batteries is welcome.  The President went to a baseball game in DC last night, an area where he pulled 4% of the vote at the last election, and some are saying that he was roundly booed when introduced.  My guess is that didn’t do anything to endear the Gnats to the hearts and minds of the rest of the country, but what do I know.  And in other news, one reason for the success of the Baghdadi raid was that he kept it on the low down and away from meddling Dems.  I honestly believe the Dems would be willing to sacrifice the mission and all of the soldiers involved just to try to proved that Trump is incompetent and unable to mount a proper military exercise.  That’s the sad state of affairs that we are in these days.  OK, you all have a great day, and I’ll be checking in later if something big goes down.

    We just got a snarky email from rich white lady who made Steve go back and wash her yard down.

    It seems he left her special meter box covered in mud (not likely, the lid goes on last). We also state in our proposals that we don’t do landscaping work unless it is budgeted in, and we don’t guarantee a perfect yard after the tap is installed. Hubby will put down tar paper or a tarp to put dirt on to keep the yard cleaner, but it’s no guarantee that dirt won’t land outside of its margins. I don’t know what a third trip was supposed to cover, but her paraphrased response to me was “The check is in the mail but I don’t like your husband or his work. I shouldn’t have to pay but since you are threatening legal action I’ll do it.”

    We were never going to be able to make her happy. I guess we shouldn’t ask her for a testimonial to use in our advertising. /snark off

    I gave the irrigation company a heads up, because I’m sure his crew will get an earful about us. From what I hear, she’s into them for $4K and they are having a hard time getting paid.

    I’ve been investigating the wild fires and Calif and their relationship with power lines.  Now the prevailing theory is that high winds cause the overhead power lines to spark and ignite the trees and uncleared undergrowth thus erupting into massive fires.  So the solution is to simply cut the power on windy days, no sparks, and no fires – right?  But somehow, the fires are raging yet the power has been cut.  Of course, no power means no warning signals, no water pumps, no gasoline pumps, no street lights, etc., but those are minor conveniences when a wild fire is bearing down on your community.  Simply trimming the trees and clearing the undergrowth is out of the question of course due to environmental concerns – but somehow that logic translates into loss of the same is OK if it is taken out by a rapidly moving wildfire.  I guess wild fires don’t affect the environment like a brush hog or a controlled burn would.  This whole thing is insane.  And people wonder why the Calif power company is bankrupt.  Please, if you have Calif refugees moving into your neighborhood or voting district, encourage them to leave.  Tell them about high crime, poor schools, disease bearing mosquitoes, earthquakes, sink holes – whatever you can come up with.  Don’t let them bring their shxx hole politics to Texas – think of the future of you children.

    Limbaugh is regaling us how Trump snookered the Ds yet again. The Syrian troop “withdrawal” was a fake out and it worked brilliantly – both here and abroad. No Ds were told of the operation and viola! no leaks, gee I wonder why?

    Just got an interesting email from a scammer. It actually made it into our inbox instead of being dumped into the spam folder.

    It looked really good, and the guy was offering useful web site optimizing services. He had already run some analytics, showing the keywords that were driving folks to our web page, the amount of traffic, and the ways he could help us optimize our presence and increase our sales. Complete with graphs and reports. They guy spent some time on generating that piece of marketing.

    There is only one problem.

    We don’t have a web page. Never have.

    What if … LSU beats Alabama and goes to the SEC championship game where they get beat by Florida. The one loss SEC champion Gators would go to the playoffs and conceivably play a one loss runner up LSU for a third time this season or a one loss Alabama who didn’t even win their division, much less their conference. And the rest of the country would whine “We need an eight team playoff!!!” All thanks to the Oklahoma breakdown on the prairie.

    Some of you folks have linked to that band Triump over the years.
    These guys never raised even the faintest blip on my radar. Their Wiki Page seems to indicate they were peaking in the 80’s. I had already moved on, seeing as how Rock was, basically, already dead.

    They may have been big on Sunny 99.

    Those boys sure are pretty, though.
    Just can’t envision them ever changing plugs, points, condenser and and getting their hand covered with dirty oil, trying to find the dropped oil plug.

  54. Hamous Avatar

    They’re Eastern Canadian so I take issue with them being classified as a “Hard Rock” band. Same thing with Rush. Canadian hard rock is an oxymoron.

  55. Tedtam Avatar

    Sadly, I watched Squawk’s video from #47.

    Holy frijole, do you realize that someone a group of folks had to sit in a room and PLAN that out, then go and create it? And that they had to sit around to edit it and approve it? And after that, put it out for publication?

    Boggles the mind.

    Well, it’s dark, cool, and may get rainy.  I don’t like going to bed too early, but with no baseball, I may just give up and hit the rack.  Don’t be surprised if you see me as First about 4 in the morning.  You all have a great night now.

    Here’s something to think about.  If you were hidden in a dead end tunnel with a big, vicious dog latched on to your family jewels, and you were wearing a suicide vest, would you pull the trigger?

    That you even know of the song Cattle Call shocks me and earns you 250 points.

    That you posted the Slim Whitman version – instead of Eddy Arnold’s – costs you 5000 points.

    You’re losing ground fast, son.
