Been off the grid for a while. Miss you all. Part of the absence was a 2-week stint in Spain. Have a brother in law from Salamanca (lives in the States now). He was an amazing travel companion. Showed us places and we did things that joe-blow tourist would not do. My Spanish is remedial at best. I tried, but crashed and burned a few times. Mostly just brain freezes trying to interpret. Was glad to have him there to bail me out. I cannot express how amazing that trip was.

I refuse to allow box-o-rocks to sleep on the bed. Well…. Maybe while I watch the football game.

Oh my goodness. The subliminal message here is not all that subtle. Nice job Amazon. Now even my charger isn’t adequate.

Hey folks. Let’s play a game. Anybody know what this thing is? It is attached to a key fob from a used car I just bought. My lovely bride didn’t show it to me till we got home. The dealer is closed now and I can’t contact them until tomorrow. It appears to be a key of some kind. The IC board makes me think it is an electronic lock. It’s driving me nuts. All guesses and reverse image search results are welcome. Thanks!

I couldn’t get myself to put this reply on the bird site. I did send it separately to my brother who got a good belly laugh out of it. So decided to share with this family as well. 😘

Sitting on the deck with box-O-rocks. Yeah, I like him but boy can he be dumb. Oh, and don’t mind the blown up chair side. We think the birds are using it as nesting material even though it’s plastic. Anyway… BoR picked his head up and sniffed air. So I told him: “I wish I could know what your nose knows.” And then I laughed at myself for being so clever. I had to. Because no one else is going to do it. 😁

Did I just give blood? Yes
Did I agree to no exercise, heavy lifting or alcohol for 24 hours? Yes.
Am I going golfing in 2 hours where I will do all of those things? Also yes.

I’m to understand this is the courtroom sketch by Reuters. Ha!

I was so disappointed in my high schoolers. They both totally didn’t see this very free spirited Argentinian futbal fan after they won the World Cup. 😂

I, however, am still as eagle eyed as ever.

Worn out from doom scrolling. So here is a pic of my vodka-tonic. Just nice enough out to sit on the deck and grill burgers before it gets dark. Take time for self care. 😉

Good morning. This gorgeous sunrise on my way to the office put me a great mood. So I’m going to make an extra effort to do good things with this day.

I once again ask for forgiveness for bringing the blight of the bird site here. However…. For those missing it there is a viral memefest going on. The pic is of a young lady yelling in the ear of a young man. Probably at a concert. The captions are amazing. Here is just one example. The upset woman and the cat have been updated.

@Minholkin
omg. cupcakes!

Happy Birthday!

Sorry I'm late to the game. Thank you for being you.

I don’t recall proper decorum at the moment. Link is to the bird site, mostly to prove it’s a legit post. But I thought it was crazy cool that these truck drivers helped create a non-lethal fall depth under this confused soul. Situation turned out well.

I’m not sure how the magic bird site algorithm decided I should see this ad. But whatever. My bigger concern is about how tone deaf the ad is. The premise of 101 Dalmatians is the evil lady want to make coats out of the puppies. So… here’s a picture of a spotted dog and a spotted handbag. I’ve recently heard people claiming Disney is evil. Maybe they’re right.
