President* Joe Biden has pledged $300 million to rebuild the “sagging infrastructure” of Congresswoman Maxine Waters’ face, in an effort to address the urgent need for repairs and upgrades to the aging and deteriorating features of the outspoken and influential Democrat.

“We are committed to ensuring that the people of America have access to the finest in public officials, and we are proud to announce that this year’s budget will include $300 million to rebuild the sagging infrastructure of Congresswoman Maxine Waters’ face,” said a spokesperson for the White House, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

The announcement has sent shockwaves through the political and cosmetic surgery communities, with many people expressing their excitement and anticipation for the upcoming face-lift.

“This is a brilliant idea,” said one former White House official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “I’ve always thought that Maxine Waters’ face could benefit from a little more support, and what better way to achieve that than by providing her with $300 million in taxpayer-funded cosmetic surgery?”

When we first moved to Texas and tried out chicken-fried steak we went to several restaurants and found what differences there were among the various places’ ways to fix the dish. There certainly are many traditions.

I’ve been trying to tell you people for 25 years that there’s nothing special about a Chicken Fried Steak.

I am quite insulted. Quite devastated. That my own brother accuses me of never having eaten a really fine Chicken Fried Steak. All I’m saying is that it falls way short of being anything special. The worst grilled ribeye I ever ate beats the best Chicken Fried Steak I ever ate. Actually, the best Jack-In-The-Box Super Tacos I ever ate… Read more »

Just to wiss off my beloved fellow Texans and other southerners, I would like to add banana pudding to my list of highly overrated southern foods.
Number one on that list is, of course, Chicken Fried Steak.

The egg pudding is better than I thought it would be. And it’s very smooth, so I don’t have to open my mouth very wide to eat it. Double win for me!

Next time, I think I’m cutting back on the sweetener, though.

Dang.
We lost a firefighter yesterday in a warehouse fire.
This evening we have over 100 firefighters at a burning warehouse in Spring Branch. (Bingle/Hempstead).

I have an untried recipe for a pudding that uses hard boiled eggs and coconut milk. I think I’m going to try that for dinner. I’m certainly not eating steak tonight….

Oh, and I have a delightful story to tell: As I was waiting before my surgery yesterday, I plopped myself into one of the few remaining chairs, with a white woman to my left and a black woman to my right. As I perused the room, I commented on the fact that everyone had a screen in their faces, and… Read more »

Youngest son has a buddy working a booth at SEMA in Las Vegas, can’t remember the product. Son was invited to go, meals a hotel covered! They flew in there last night staying thru Saturday. I doubt I would ever go to that show but there is a lot of cool stuff.

The boy and family are having to evacuate because of the Mountain Fire in Ventrua County. It’s to the west of them but the Santa Anna winds have switched and are pushing the fire east toward Moorpark. My wife downloaded the “Watch Duty” App on her phone to get updates on the fire. If you click on the map, I… Read more »

That newfangled patch that Dr. Lucena was so excited about just came off. I guess the hype wasn’t all that accurate – it was supposed to last at least 3 days.

But I have my palate cover, so I can still drink stuff. Maybe I’ll try the cottage cheese again later, or some scrambled eggs.

I just saw headline that Merchan is considering throwing out Trump’s felony convictions.

I’ll believe it when I see it. Merchan is a self-serving rat. Maybe he’ll do it as a way of saving what little reputation he has left.

And Mr. C. ends up contemplating the future: Trump has the ability to broker peace in Europe and the Middle East. He’s a big thinker, a man of possibilities. Trump’s genius is that he sees possibilities no one else does, and he thinks big. You can trace those skills all the way back to his first real estate projects in New York.… Read more »

Speaking of lawfare: the rats are abandoning that sinking ship! I couldn’t decide between two headlines since both were terrific. First, Politico ran a story headlined, “Say goodbye to Trump’s legal cases.” And NBC published its version of the same story under the headline, “DOJ moving to wind down Trump criminal cases before he takes office.” It’s another body blow… Read more »

And on to the House, and the possible R control: Mr. C. says that Mike Johnson may not be perfect, but he’ll work with and for the incoming president. The implications for a Republican-controlled House are staggering. First, Democrats can forget about another impeachment attempt (insurrectionist!) for at least two years. That gives Vice President Vance time to get into… Read more »

And Trump is giving RFK his dream job: Kennedy said Trump told him to achieve quantifiable results in two years, by measurably reducing childhood chronic disease. Kennedy is going to need a chainsaw for that, and Trump will give it to him. (Maybe they can use Javier Milei’s chainsaw, if he’s not using it right now.)Trump gave Kennedy three simple but mountain-sized… Read more »

Next up: concession! The UK Independent ran a story yesterday that bent liberal minds into rotten pretzels, headlined “Harris and Walz family in tears as vice president concedes election loss to Trump.” Get ready for a lot of crying…..The “keep fighting” flub when she was obviously not going to keep fighting was bad enough. But liberals really lost their minds when the not-so-joyful… Read more »

Finally checking in. The dental surgery went well yesterday, I am always impressed with how competent my dental student is.

61 years ago , the original 1963 cast of Petticoat Junction (from left): Patricia Woodell, Bea Benaderet, Linda Kaye Henning & Sharon Tate.

KHOU Weatherman Dave said that there have been only seven hurricanes in the Gulf in November in 150 years.

None of them reached the Texas coast.

Well we finally got a little rain after our October drought, A whopping .72″ of slow drizzle but we’ll take it. Needed muchly. Oh and that dang hurricane is heading for Mexico because of the blasted high pressure zone that has been siting in the gulf for a month.
