Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
I thought about putting in the clip from “Major League”, but the one I found has an f-bomb in the middle of it.
Beisbol been berry, berry good to me.
The Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom looks *way* too much like Rocketboy.
Redhead for Carin. Been a while, sorry.
Bad stuff ’bout the Mets.
Last but not least.
Play ball!
Thank you for your attention, and y’all have a good day.

Morning
I’m pre-bearding for Movember.
We’re going to do no-shave November? AWESOME. I mean it itches a bit at first but once the leg hair gets long enough it’s fine.
Wakey wakey
How did the stupid no shave november get started?
And I like COAlex’s approach.
The guy at work that I least respect always loved No Shave November. One less thing for him to do.
That about sums up my enthusiasm for the “holiday”.
He gone, too. Whoop whoop!
I couldn’t have killed it this early. mare just got up, and hasn’t even vented properly, yet.
Some days are more venty than others.
My initial response to Movember was negative. When I first heard about I thought it was stupid. I still do. The purported intention of “raising awareness for men’s health issues” is a failure. Other than a few sportscasters talking about “prostate health” no one really gives two shits. I just grow it for a yearly event to mark the passage of time and drive Paula crazy. I do shave the neck beard portion because having a neck beard is just gross.
I prefer clean shaven but I am not against beards except for those affectations I always see on younger people (and desperate old ones) trying too hard.
I think I’ve reached my limit on the gung-ho “let’s all do this and make it a thing” deal.
Like the Bill Murray deal at the Chive.
I guess people really need to be a part of something and for many something as stupid as that qualifies.
Garry Kasparov ✔@Kasparov63
Putin sends fighter jets, Iran sends troops and weapons, Obama sends John Kerry. So no surprise who’s calling the shots in Syria & Iraq now.
12:22 PM – 27 Oct 2015
I might shave on November 1, but I’m scared Possum won’t recognize me.
I’m never shaving again. I hate it and my beard is glorious.
I think we were talking about faces.
Don’t say that Scott.
We have a large tree out back that is just spectacular right now. It’s leaves have varying amounts of red and yellows like this http://is.gd/85bPvr
Unfortunately, there is a much larger tree right in front of it that completely blocks it from our view.
I’ve got a tree that looked like that, too. It’s almost gone now, but I took this earlier:

What’s wrong with your trees out there? They’re turning colors.
Too much watering.
We are past peak color now. There are some stragglers here and there but the color show is over for the most part. Rain and wind tonight will bring a lot of dead foliage down. Hopefully not too many limbs. I get cranky when the power goes out.
I just pulled out the leaf blower and dispatched a few million leaves. Three coyote poops back there. We are either the designated latrine or there are a boatload of coyotes out there.
You can expect around six to ten.
There was a colony in a culvert by my house. I counted ten but it was a really well established group. When they all piped up you couldnt have a conversation in my backyard. It was better just to howl along.
ADDENDA: Our old friend Tim Cavanaugh notices, “the P.B.S. News Hour uses the phrase ‘Dr. Jill Biden’ to describe an Ed.D. from the University of Delaware but does not use the phrase ‘Dr. Ben Carson’ to describe the former chief neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins.”
-From Jim Gerahty’s Morning Jolt newsletter-
It has nothing to do with the Ed.D, and everything to do with the – D behind her husband’s name.
Afternoon, herders of cats.
*shakes head
I wondered what that rattling noise was. Thought Aggie was crafting and had some paint out.
An older lady gets pulled over for speeding…
Older Woman: Is there a problem, Officer?
Officer: Ma’am, you were speeding.
Older Woman: Oh, I see.
Officer: Can I see your license please?
Older Woman: I’d give it to you but I don’t have one.
Officer: Don’t have one?
Older Woman: Lost it, 4 years ago for drunk driving.
Officer: I see….Can I see your vehicle registration papers please.
Older Woman: I can’t do that.
Officer: Why not?
Older Woman: I stole this car.
Officer: Stole it?
Older Woman: Yes, and I killed and hacked up the owner.
Officer: You what?
Older Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.
The Officer looks at the woman and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within minutes 5 police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the! car, clasping his half drawn gun.
Officer 2: Ma’am, could you step out of your vehicle please! The woman steps out of her vehicle.
Older woman: Is there a problem sir?
Officer 2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and murdered the owner.
Older Woman: Murdered the owner?
Officer 2: Yes, could you open the trunk of your car, please.
The woman opens the trunk, revealing nothing but an empty trunk.
Officer 2: Is this your car, ma’am?
Older Woman: Yes, here are the registration papers. The officer is quite stunned.
Officer 2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license.
The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer. The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.
Officer 2: Thank you ma’am, one of my officers told me you didn’t have a license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up the owner.
Older Woman: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too.
Moral: Don’t mess with little old ladies!

Ace seems bitter:
So, next the vote goes to the full house, where Ryan will become the new Speaker, and I guess we all can stop covering the windows of our cars with chickenwire (so that the Hollow-Eyed Men of the Barrens can’t get to us so easily) and stop slaughtering our dogs for Dog Oil, the fuel of the future.
Moonshine is the fuel of the future, since corn and sugar will always be cheap.
Or dimethyl ether. For the diesels. You can make that from natgas.

Why so dead? Imma gonna go stretch out some bands, then pick up a 4 legged indoor pooping machine, and watch some baseball.
I am going to steal some CNBC and watch the debate.
I can’t stay up until 2 AM to see who wins a baseball game.
Happy Birthday, Geoff.

==========
NTTAWWT……. Will she be featured on MMM?
The ground turkey was .84/ lb., actually, and comes with a free miter saw.
Nothing was exceptionally on sale at the Meijer, so I just bought eggs, bacon, whiskey, and almond milk.
http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/217545/
*head whips around*
I bought a half-gallon of almond milk for 3.10
This is fucking awesome!
There’s gonna be some smokin’ at Casa de Wiser this Sunday!
Mine was $3.29, but I bought the name brand. The store brand was $2.99.
The whiskey was Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve. 120 proof.
And it’s tasty.
It really, really hurt to buy eggs.
Wiser is smoking his wife’s meat.
Are you getting tips from MJ?
I just want to lay on the floor and cover myself in meat!!!

My brain hurts. Friend on Faceplant posted a video of Bernie Sanders as Reagan 2.0. Not wasting four minutes of my life watching it.
Huntsville was ranked #6 in the top 10 cities to survive the zombie apocalypse. I think it’s already here.
Bernie Sanders isn’t the second coming of anything. Reagan?
Ask her who her dealer is, MJ needs some good chronic.
Marco has the potential to make a good president some day.
Not watching the debate. Kicked computer butt today at work, sang Charles Daniels Band songs with Mini-me on the way home, and am watching Monty Python Flying Circus. I don’t feel like harshing my mellow.
Wow, Cruz goes nuclear on the media!
I’m watching Monkey Thieves.
Haha, Cruz just called the guy a tequila drinking pot eating hippy. And he laughed!
There’s nothing wrong with tequila drinking. The Messican drug lords on my soaps do it pretty much constantly.
i’m a cruz guy – but i’ll wait for the cliff notes
#the media can kiss my bearded monkey ass
raining like crazy here
the leaves that are left will come down fast in this weather
Carson dropped another boom. The crowd booed another horrible question. He just looks and says, “they know.”
Rubio: the democrats have the ultimate super-pac: the Mainstream Media.
BOOOOOOM
Carson: just because you believe that marriage is between a man and a woman doesn’t mean you are a homophobe. That’s the media’s fault.
Ask her who her dealer is, MJ needs some good chronic.
——————————
Need? I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
Damn, it’s almost like, now that they’ve realized that they can confront the media and it will make them popular with the base, they’re willing to do so. Who’d would have thunk it?!
Want? Crave?
They know that MJ’s beard will back them up.
7. I’d be honored to have my beard back up Carly Fiorina’s bush.
Moderators for next Dem debate: Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and Mark Levin.
Would be the same as this one.
I’m willing to moderate the next dem debate for free.
I guarantee better ratings than they got for the first one.
It’s pretty funny.
Former Dr. Ben Carson: You’re a black man that hates yourself and raped Anita Hill while performing an abortion and listening to Judas Priest.
Why do you punch homeless white lesbian single mothers that owe millions of dollars in student loans for taking care of mentally challenged minority transgender millennials?
scott i was talking to a relative who was a remington historian and designer/engineer
neat piece of trivia :
remington discontinued production of the derringers / pepperboxes due to employee theft. Accounting was able to prove that more of the little pocket pistols were stolen by the worker bees than were sold to the general public.
it’s possible to find pristine examples throughout the mohawk valley of many different remington models that have been passed down through the families of ex employees of The Arms. At times the company offered generous employee discount programs.
your pepperbox can be restored, just make sure it’s by someone who knows and appreciates the design and history. it’s not horribly difficult – just time consuming; i’m working on a poultney trimble myself. these kind of projects are fun.
He’s a monster.
lesbian transgender tears are a necessary component of the dark elixer I use to gain immortality.
I spent a lot of time around Adventists in high school, my ex wife was one.
They aren’t that weird, but they generally think the Pope is the antichrist, so Dr. Ben has that going for him.

My formula is based on a polyvinyl molecule interpreting a cryptographic cypher extracted from dragonkin tumblr posts. We should compare notes. Your way might be easier.
There is a Seventh Day Adventist college here. I have no clue as to why it’s predominantly black. I had a temporary team lead who was married to one – she ate canned vegetarian hot dogs.
My hair is too damn long.
The rent is too damn high!
Huckabee is too damn fat!
The media took a beating tonight. Wow.
Wow, those moderators were freakin HORRIBLE!
I drank myself right off the bingo card. Hate it when that happens.
At first I thought Republicans were dumb for agreeing to the far left moderators.
Now I realize it’s master trolling. Hubris is the left’s weakness.
Night, blappies.
I grew up near Berrien Springs, Roamy. The SDAs near there are mostly white folk. A lot are vegetarian, not all. No idea why it would catch on with blacks in particular, I didn’t know any when I was attending my ex’s church.
Nighty night, MJ’s Beard
So, now I have a MacBook Pro.
Everything is weird, but it doesn’t heat up my crotch like my old laptop, which is nice.

There was a young lady who briefly gave music lessons at the music store who had the most amazingly beautiful blue eyes. I’m talking stunningly beautiful. So amazing that you would literally stop talking the moment you saw them.
Plus, she was cute as hell.
She goes to them same college as wiserson. I just went to his first concert. Girl with amazing eyes was sitting right in front of wiserson.
After the concert, I mentioned that to wiserbride. Then I saw the young lady across the room. So I brought wiserbride over, said hello to young lady (who said that she remembered me) mentioned how great the band sounded, and then introduced her to wiserbride.
Afterwards, I asked wiserbride “so, was I wrong?”
“Oh HELL no! Her eyes are AMAZING!!!”
.*cough
“Yeah…. Told ya….
Is wiserbride bicurious?
I would guess the predominant black denomination here is either Missionary Baptist or African Methodist Episcopal. The Catholic church I used to attend was started as a mission church for blacks; there’s about 400 there.
So now you need to arrange for wiserson and BEL (blue-eyed lady) to coincidentally keep meeting…
I kept pouring Dan booze so I could watch both debates. PiP was ok. Dan got too drunk to cook. I’m eating cold pasta.

I have doubts that Knob creek single barrel 120 is really single barrel, but it sure is good!
It’s a name, I don’t care. It’s great in soda and ice.
Luntz’ dunces are impressed with the candidates. Thanks CNBC! They are unanimous in their hatred of them.
I am still awake. I really, really shouldn’t be. No extra caffeine, so I don’t know what to blame.
Should have had some of the whiskey like 4 hours ago.
Nothing for it now, gotta just go lay down and try to sleep.
You need to keep a bottle of meletonin handy.
The book of derp is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
