First chill bump of the season. Low of about 70F this morning, with a good wind. We've been looking for tomato worms everyday after breakfast, and this morning I had to go back in and get a shirt. About a month ago our local TV weatherman was getting lots of flack at the diner (where I have my...

Not sure if you guys caught this, as it was not in the main stream news, but Russia is not the only country to go after American pols on social media. The report stated that Israel was using bot account to go after anyone who said anything about the conditions in Gaza. We knew about their lobby...

Fort Sumter?

Not too bad.

Johnny Cash and Elvis have the most well known cuts of this song, but these guys are new to me and sound pretty good.

So the old trope about 150 sailors going on a cruise and 75 couples coming back is no longer homophobic, just in bad taste now?

Mamma's old house was wrecked by Michael, and Sister told me I could use the windows out of it to build a greenhouse. But as my wife has pointed out many times, Michael was almost six years ago, and I have not taken out any windows. So. . . . . . . we bought a little greenhouse last week. I...

My wife isn't kicking as high as she used to. On bad days she doesn't feel like walking to the garden, so she ask if I would plant a few grow bag tomatoes and peppers up by the porch. They were doing real good, but the deer would not leave them alone. I moved them all to the back deck and...

That is some high level bs right there. Some one handed the gun to him, and he fired it. The damn Navy was who posted the picture. It cost millions of dollars to train someone to captain a ship, but apparently PR is priceless.

Our local college station has a Friday night old rock and roll show. Last night the DJ was talking about how often the first song on side two would be the best song on the album. It did make me think about a possible new thread. Here is an example. (IMO)

I love this guy. He has a real John Prine feel to him.

It looks like this was done with Ukraine's new in house jet drone. Very similar to ATACMS. With air burst of steel pellets to cause more widespread damage. Should cut down on air attacks as Russia have to move their airfields further away.
