Texpat are you just replacing just the doors or are you getting pre-hung doors? Of course you may go full out and make your own fancy door facings. I really like the pre-hung ones, they’re so easy to install.
80 SD You obviously haven’t spent much time in these cheap, cheesy McMansions in the last 35 years. Everything is…really cheap. It’s the cardboard doors I hate the most. It makes your skin crawl. My son-in-law and daughter have about 17 or 18 of those doors in their house and want me to replace them with solid pine raised-panel doors. Oh,… Read more »
You have a point there and I’ve not really been watching it at all but it was on the local news this morning so we could check the weather and I saw a bunch of political ads in just a few minutes. No telling how much money is being spent out here.
Yesterday here at the boy’s house I noticed that the front face panel was missing off a drawer in the guest bathroom. This sorta’ aggravated me since this fancy 6 year old, 5700 Sq Ft house should be top of the line but the drawer face was installed with 2, yes 2 small #6 wood screws, screwed into particle board!… Read more »

Well, I have another loose cat who is starting to come by my back yard after Billy has been here. While Billy is a gorgeous cat, this new one — not so much. He is black with a bit of white, and afraid of everything. I need to ask around and see if anyone has noticed him or has any… Read more »
Texpat @ 5:24 PM Thanks for the detailed explanation. I didn’t know for sure if the moderator would see a post so I always mentioned it so someone could look for it. BTW; You and Squawk do a good job of keeping up with things but both of you have lives and don’t have time to constantly monitor all us… Read more »
I’ve not watched much TV since I’ve been here but I have caught a few political ads and they are Gawd awful. Mercy how can anyone be stupid enough to vote for these MO-RONS?! Oh and that ball player fellow is “Just too Conservative” for Kalifornia. 😀
I’ve had a knida’ laid back day, well as laid back as you can have with my granddaughters but they did spend a lot of time upstairs playing and right now it sounds like a herd of buffalo running around up there. Plans are for the boy and I to run down to Yorba Linda to the Nixon Library in… Read more »
Reminds me of the song we would sing when trouble shooting network problems out on the oil/gas rigs 100 miles in the Gulf. Especially when we were wanting to go home. We’d substitute the word gin with boot.
Cleaning off the kitchen table, I discovered the debit card that I received for jury duty payment back in January (when I spent five hours getting disqualified).
Along with the debit card is the three page, single-spaced, TINY print, instruction sheet.
There is an amazingly high probability that both are going into the basura, with prejudice.

I’m trying a new composting technique – junk in a tub. I had a storage tub with a locking lid on it, and following the lead of one of my gardening gurus on Youtube, I decided to put it to use for composting. Since my pile composting was feeding too many critters that I didn’t want to feed. Last year,… Read more »
But I am excited tonight to eat my next two-week ration of beef – under 1/4 pound of beef flank pinwheel stuffed with feta cheese, spinach, and black olive.
And maybe I’ll watch an old western to remind me of when my county was the heart of cow country.
I think I’m up to 5 in the the bucket or that went poof into the black hole because I tried to copy “spineless joe biden is inching towards a full betrayal of Israel”
and add comments after that.
so I take it copying anything from a blockquote that is also in heading text blows up the post?
All of the factors conspiring to kill the beef industry in America and that way of life are part and parcel of the Left’s project to wean Americans off of beef by making it too expensive for anyone except for people with $200K plus household incomes.
It reminds me of every time each year when the Parshah for Shabbat was about the “red heifer” in the Torah, I would stand up and say to the congregation,”What’s the problem ? We have a million red heifers in Texas and they’re called Santa Gertrudis.”
Then the rabbi would tell me to sit down and be quiet.
This is how ignorant the people are in media today and this is perhaps the 100th time I’ve seen this. Fox News interviews the president of the National Black Farmers’ Association about the beef cattle supply being down to a 73 year low. He blames it on Biden. But what video clips do they keep cutting to ? Dairy cows.… Read more »
I don’t want anything bad to happen to Manhattanites.
Just for them to run out of flour, salt, bottled water, booze, dry-cleaning fluid, laundry detergent, toilet paper, deodorant, and dietary fiber products.
I can promise y’all there is not a single truck driver in America who wants to drop a load in New York City no matter what is going on in the political world.
And now for today’s Men’s Fashion Report. I have never owned a Sherpa-lined work vest before. On a whim, I treated myself to one in the fall. (Half-price!!) I wish I had done so decades ago. You know how I love the cold weather, but I have always hated fighting with a heavy work jacket – especially while driving. The… Read more »
I just got home from mass. There’s a family with five girls that just make my whole weekend. When the girls see me, their faces light up like it’s Christmas. When Mass was over, they came running to hug me. That doesn’t count the hugs and smiles and giggles I got on the way into mass. After I finished hugging… Read more »
#42 Shannon: If the Rs would simply demonstrate that the House holds the purse strings, and slap them with a 75% cut in State Department funding; they might get a little more cooperation.
I spotted this neat old picture over yonder; Green Bay Packers > Dan Currie – Ray Nitschke – Willie Davis -.
Where is my malcontent monitoring pay?

I’m thinking that if I throw away the jury service debit card, the County will use the saved money to repair that big chug hole up the road.
With some of those sticky raisins that they usually use for road repairs.

I thought about calling the County Clerk and asking for the instructions in Farsi.
Reminds me of the song we would sing when trouble shooting network problems out on the oil/gas rigs 100 miles in the Gulf. Especially when we were wanting to go home. We’d substitute the word gin with boot.
fun times.
Thx for the synopsis Jersey Boss Man Stan.
My motto has always been when in doubt, cold boot it.

Now that sounds like a government explanation. 😉

Pharmaceutical Companies Quietly Drop mRNA Vaccines as Sudden Deaths Soar
I believe this says it all:
Following poor results and plummeting share prices, Big Pharma companies, including Moderna and Pfizer, are quietly dropping their mRNA products.
Meanwhile, governments who “invested” taxpayers’ money in these experimental injections are left holding the white elephant.

Official Hambone Announcement
Nobody knows why anything ends up in bucket.
Government conspiracy is as good an explanation as any. So, go for it.
Then the rabbi would tell me to sit down and be quiet.
Okay, you made me chuckle.

Steaks are only for the “special people.”
well the usurping Kenyan 3 admin betrayed America long ago so betrayal is nothing new to the fundamental deformer of America.
the wooden dummy can only betray his Depends because he’s completely out of it and can only move an inch at a time anyway.

Beef. It’s only for the Elites.

Boycotts like that are hard to pull off. It is a bit different than changing your brand of beer.
Only self-employed operators can decide to participate. Pretty much.
But the idea sure makes me smile.
Truckers are going to “truck with” NYC and deny load deliveries there.
How effective will this grass roots boycott be? Time will tell.
But I hear it’s a reaction to the Trump trial.

I’m not completely clear if all visitors are welcome to view today’s Special Sunday Coffee & Covid For Subscribers.
It’s a hope-filled effort that is surely welcome after the revelations of the last couple of days.
Perhaps even worth going to his Substack site and signing up for a free subscription.

I’ll have to watch it.
Great cartoon and true.
Evil makes my Buttocks tingle. 😀
FWIW; I loved the whole Elbonian outsourcing series.

Most of DC needs to be converted to fertilizer.
Who ordered up this cold nonsense?
I wanted to go yachting this weekend.
I guess next weekend.
Surely the most comprehensive documentary on Lynard Skynard.
Dr. Phil
I didn’t know that after years and years they didn’t really break out until they were the opening act for the Who’s Quadrophenia tour.
Tony “The Squirrel” Blinken is not happy.
