I am cleaning up the Hambone server tossing out junk and unlinked items from the old site. I found these pictures from a “function” back in 2011. I did not want to trash these and figured y’all might like seeing them, so I saved them and here they are.
Watching a carnivore video – this one features a 700+ pound guy, Todd Bockness, who so far has lost over 300 pounds on the carnivore diet, which he found basically by accident. He’d tried every diet under the sun, including keto. Even on the keto diet, his body didn’t respond well. Asthma and other breathing problems, eye disease, etc. He… Read more »
So typically, I’ve fallen down on the job and haven’t raised the quality of this site by remembering you all to this:

Sometimes it lasts in love..but sometimes it hurts too
Hey Dr phil.
You there?
Finland.
You know. Finland?
The newest member of NATO?
Poor folks have had to put up with the GD Russian basturds…..forever.
Him: I want to be a billionaire
Like my uncle
Her: Wait your uncle is a billionaire?
Him: No
He wants to be a billionaire too.
I just got off the phone with Scott Rasmussen’s polling group doing a poll. They said it was only going to be a few questions. It was 20 minutes before I hung up.
My only regret about this weekend was that I wasn’t able to be there for my good friend’s first sermon at his new call – leading the oldest Lutheran church in Fredericksburg. I just got off the phone with him and it all went well. He lost his young 60 year old wife to early onset Alzheimer’s about eight months… Read more »
Raining again, and it looks like it might hang around for some time. Hafta wait until it stops to fetch the mail a mere 5 minutes after I was ready to go out and get it. Timing is everything….
The truck saga continues. It didn’t start – again. Now Hubby thinks it might some intermittent wiring connection problem. He’s got one more trick up his sleeve, and we’re hoping it works…
While the newly pregnant couple were here this weekend, I had this Eureka! moment. I figure it was about sixty-five years ago that Mom bought this child’s maple rocker. I’ve been trying to get rid of stuff around here for the last couple years, but just couldn’t part with the rocker. So I made a dramatic production out of presenting… Read more »
We already have Tammy Bruce and now it looks like we may have fitness guru Jillian Michaels moving to the Right. If high profile lesbians can come to their senses and vote for conservatives, I welcome them. “You find that sort of patriotism and Americana in Wyoming, and I tend to love it. And I’m also a big outdoors person.… Read more »
The truck started right up at the mechanic’s shop. Hubby wanted the ignition module replaced anyway, didn’t trust the existing one. The mechanic taught him something new: Hubby didn’t know to put a layer of some kind of grease on a plate part of the module. The grease helps dissipate heat and keeps the module from overheating. The shop only… Read more »
This is my son-in-law, John Baumgartner, as a guest on CNBC earlier today. The Biden administration is killing the restaurant business along with everything else.
I just made my first chaffle. It’s a keto term for a mini-waffle type of “bread” made from one egg and one cup of cheese. Mix the ingredients and bake in two batches on a Dash, a min-waffle maker. It made a quite acceptable read substitute. Fortunately, I remembered to bring my Dash with me, and it only takes a… Read more »
We haven’t heard from Texanadian lately. I figure he’s outside supervising his trophy wife chopping and splitting firewood for winter.
This young lady is worth listening to. Not only because she’s now a disillusioned Democrat, but because she says some pretty insightful things about politics in general.
Getting a much needed shower the past half hour.
Thoughts are with Hubby stuck in Oklahoma. Vehicle problems are not fun.
I made a rosary walk a little while ago, to get blood and spirit circulating. I think we’re the only active vacationing unit on this whole end of the complex. I see other cars, but few people. I think those vehicles belong to workers who are doing end of summer renovations and cleanup. There was a family at the other… Read more »
This is a from a blogger linked by Mark Tapscott at Instapundit. The article is how bad the housing market has become in the US and how much worse it will be if Kamala gets elected. The same thing happened in Canada, after 9 years of Justin Trudeau. He let in MILLIONS of illegal immigrants and refugees – people who… Read more »
Pretty sure that the group photo from Bear Creek is the only one I’ve seen before.
Thanks SQK.
There’s been a food trailer in Sealy for many years and I just got around to looking up the word.
Learn something new every day.
A pupusería is where pupusas are sold.
The pupusa is a popular El Salvadoran dish made of a thick, corn tortilla filled with anything from meats to cheeses to refried beans to pork rinds. Pupusas can be purchased from pupuserías, as well as streetside vendors. Pupusas are also found in certain areas of Guatemala and Honduras.
We should get some rain because I watered last night.
Dark clouds that do not look friendly are moving in, light rain falls, and the wind comes through. Weather folk say we should expect 1-2″ of rain today. Kitty is back at the window, and she knows more about the rain than we do.
Purrscilla kitty is sitting on the edge of the desk looking out the window in the living room that has become an office of sorts because we entertain guests in the much larger family room next to it. One or two squirrels have captured her viewing interest as they come up to the window and sit on the wooden bench… Read more »
It was Obama who ate dogs.
And Romney who tortured them.

I’m listening to my Catholic podcasts, and we may have an American saint in the future: Sister Wilelmina’s body is incorrupt – and healings are occurring. But pachapapa is loathe to announce new miracles. I agree with Mr. Stine that we need to allow the proper amount of time and study to pass before declaring her a saint. But this… Read more »
I forgot to mention that get together was the first one I attended because previous ones were considerably farther from where we live. I was not comfortable going that far by myself. But the park was on our side of Houston and easy to find.
Hubby got his truck running – the ignition module quit on him. Handyman said that was a common problem with that make. Hubby’s gonna get a spare to keep in the glove box. At least he can start home now.
Mr. C. then covered the weird story about “queering nuclear weapons”. Yes, that’s right. Y’all just head over there, I can’t even…
Next up, and final note: RFK responds to the accusation that he once at a dog:
CLIP: Kennedy responds to dog-eating claims (1:04).
Georgia now has a conservative election board. Changes are being made: For example, earlier this month in a 3-2 vote, the Republican-controlled Election Board voted to define the certification of election results as “attest[ing], after reasonable inquiry, that the tabulation and canvassing of the election are complete and accurate and that the election results are a true and accurate accounting… Read more »
Pennsylvania is up to its election shenanigans again: Cornel West won’t be on their ballot. Because, democracy decrees that third party candidates have to jump almost insurmountable hoops to allow the voters to have a real choice in elections. /spits Don’t complain! Democrats are suing everywhere to stop voters from choosing third-party candidates because Democrats are trying to save democracy. This… Read more »
Thanks to Texpat for keeping those memories from years ago. It was a wonderful get together in a city park that let us see each other for the first time. It was a beginning of what eventually became today’s Hambone. Rest in Peace, Hamous. That was a time We The People needed to direct our representatives’ attention back to the… Read more »
RE the Telegram founder being arrested in France: Anyway, most people view Pavel’s detention (not arrest) as a kind of hostage scenario. If Telegram plays ball, Pavel’s problems will magically disappear! All the platform need do is build a few government backdoors into the Telegram system, for safety, not for monitoring and censoring citizens, no, never.It’s unusual for a corporation’s CEO to… Read more »
Today’s C&C roundup: And just like that, we’re closing in on the end of August and of summer, with hints of chill occasionally riding the morning’s warmer breezes. Good morning, C&C, it’s Monday! Your roundup today includes: Telegram founder Pavel Durov detained by diligent French speech police for being insufficiently cooperative; Democrats experience wins and losses in pro-democracy campaign to block… Read more »
Since I don’t have my beads with me today, I’ll be checking the C&C a little earlier than usual… PS: I was up late finishing Capitulum XII’s pensuma (homework), and I think I’m going to slog through all of Capitulum XIII today. We’re on Cap. XIV in the class and I’m supposed to have that chapter well under way before… Read more »
The Little League World Series has become one of my favorite sporting events – I think we ran across it the first year I retired because a local team’s involvement resulted in lots of new about it, and enjoyed it enough to look for it every year since.
I try to keep an eye on the media business. One of the flagship AM stations in America, WCBS, is shutting down its 57 year old all news format in NYC. ESPN is taking over the station, unfortunately. AM radio in America is going to be either all sports or all talk. The WCBS loss of listeners has been attributed… Read more »
Here’s hoping that Hubby can get his truck fixed today. Changing the fuel pump didn’t do the job yesterday. The only good thing about this situation is that he can drive his show car to get parts. It needs some tweaking to run better, but it runs. He did tell me that he won one award from the Fort Worth… Read more »
This was quite a finish for the boys from Florida. It’s a moment they will cherish for the rest of their lives. There was a little bit of everything in Sunday night’s showdown between Florida and Chinese Taipei, including a wild error late in the game that allowed Florida to capture the Little League World Series championship. The title game ended… Read more »
I remember all these picture even though I wasn’t at that event. Tedtam mentioned that this was at the get together after LST shut down. I have a whole folder of pictures I grabbed over the years from LST Brew Ha Ha’s, the Tea party and other various pictures. Here is a Good-Un of our fearless leader and some other… Read more »
IIRC, that was the gathering in Bear Creek Park that I pulled together after LST abruptly shuttered its site.
Good times, great memories. One of them was from my daughter’s first birthday party – I wonder how it got in there?
