Heading toward bedtime out here.  Rainy, cool day was very pleasant, and I could use a few more of those.  You all have a good evening out there now.  More tomorrow.

I’m really glad you have been able to put to bed that major, lifelong unsettled part of your history.  My brother and I were blessed with a mostly stable, responsible family.  We had a couple of small dramas, but they were absolutely nothing compared to what we’ve seen among other families over the years.

Caught up on what has been posted. So that’s done. Spent all day going through year books on line to extract pictures and History about real Dad and my Mother. They both had such happy expressions on their faces. If they only knew the terror that awaited them. 🙂 God’s doesn’t want us to see the future for a reason.… Read more »

I never told you about the night a “friend” showed up late at my place in 1970s Houston in a limo with several members of Lynyrd Skynyrd…. and I never will.  They were nice folks but there’s a reason most of that band died young.

Memories to shudder about.

Justin Johnson just makes it look so easy.  I have been listening to him for a while and he never disappoints.  I have even linked to him here more than just a few times.  What an amazing talent.  Like the late Joe Pass.

TP, SDx2: These behaviors by the feds are blatantly illegal and DEFINITELY POLITICALLY MOTIVATED.  This is bait to entrap the patriots and get ‘the big thing’ just prior to the mid terms.  The outrages will continue until the morale improves and/or the mid-terms are concluded.  The feds are baiting the patriots to react so that they can: A) Cancel the… Read more »

Super Dave Here is another story of the Amish being persecuted. Amos Miller, an Amish farmer who runs a holistically managed small farm in Bird-In-Hand, Pennsylvania, grows and prepares food in tune with nature, the way he believes God intended. This seems like a sound idea to the approximately 4,000 customers who purchase Miller’s meat, eggs and dairy products from… Read more »

The highest number allowed in ordered lists using Roman numerals is 3999 ( MMMCMXCIX), but since the largest Roman numeral likely to be required today is MMXXII (the current year) there is no practical need for larger Roman numerals.

So when my Roman numeral counting hits 3999 I will have to change to Cyrillic.

Kurt Schlichter gets it. But you softies, you cannot get your heads around the truth of the situation because to do so would require you to go hard, and going hard is not in your wheelhouse.
