HHD 1-12-22

Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
Let’s get started.

Now for the hunks.


Might be a repeat.

Coors Light, really? (Insert joke about making love in a canoe.)

Somewhere near Daytona Beach.

One more fireman.

Last, but not least.

Thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the linky love every week, prayers for Mini-me heading back to school tomorrow, and y’all have a good day.

    Restless for the last hour or so, got up early. Nearly five years since losing the house. Heavy on the mind now I need a place to stay again. Feels like this shouldn’t be happening. Family was too interested in selling back then. I said yes, but depression and grief…but then I wanted to keep it…and it was sold anyway…I took the money. I should have fought. I might have a home now.

    A home.

    All I ever wanted was a home and a family.

    I have neither now.

    After waking up to pee last night and trying to drift back into sleep in bed I was thinking random thoughts and somehow remembered the word “flurona” as a new panic porn term. Then I tried to imagine new, humorous word combinations using Covid.

    For some reason I came up with Covid al carne, treatment is taco sauce and a whole lot of napkins.

    The fact that I remember that dog’s breakfast of a “joke” is concerning to me.

    Oh man this is great.

    I’m taking a course on leadership this semester and we have to write a 2 page paper every week on a relevant observation of the class in our jerbs.

    The example we are given in the syllabus is as follows:
    ——————-
    I was a new employee and my boss told me to put together a presentation. He gave me some guidance, which I followed perfectly.

    The questions I got were answered perfectly but they were very hostile.

    I was mad at my boss for not preparing me, thank goodness I’m so smart. I’m looking for a new job because my boss put me in a terrible position.

    I suggested to HR that my manager have monthly meetings with them to better understand how to support new employees.

    HR should hold my manager accountable to the standards I set out for managing me and face consequences if those standards aren’t met.

    I’m wondering…it’s supposed to be an example of what to write.

    Either the prof has a great sense of humor or he thinks this is good.

    Good thermometers and temp control are your friend, Jay. Methanol boils off at a slightly lower temp, once it’s gone, the boil temp will increase to the ethanol temp.

    If you’re looking for straight etoh no need to get crazy on the carbon source. Pretty much anything will work.
    Expired bread, pasta, canned goods… whatever. Boil it up add a cup of sugar and yeast and let it ferment.
    Throw away the first cut and distill til no mo etoh comes off.
    Temp control is your friend.

  46. Comment by Jay in Ames on January 12, 2022 12:23 pm

    hard cider is really easy. It’s just dumping yeast in some apple juice.

    I am currently doing the same for orange juice. Cranberry was really good too.

    Warning: orange juice smells like vomit as it is fermenting.

  47. Comment by Jay in Ames on January 12, 2022 12:23 pm

    pear juice would be outstanding. In fact, mix apples and pears, that makes an incredible pie.

  48. Comment by leoncaruthers on January 12, 2022 12:25 pm

    My apples always have bugs because I don’t spray the tree.

    I guess those’d get filtered, but ew.

    also, I like these airlocks better than the ones shown. They don’t plug up as easy. That middle plastic part is more fragile, but these allow for a bit of overflow.

    Got a text from my cousin a few days ago wanting to do a cousins get together. There are about twenty of us, and we’ve been super-close ever since we were babes. When we get together it’s “Katie, bar the door.”

    Anyway, after nailing down all of the specifics like time and place, etc., I received the following:

    “Hi I don’t mean to get personal but I need to ask your vaccine status.”

    My response:

    “But, Jackie, you ARE getting personal. I had to do this with my sister at Christmastime. If people are too scared to be with family or out in public at a restaurant, (or with me because they don’t know if I’m jabbed, which is personal info. they have no right to know) they really should stay at home.

    I look forward to the day we can all get together, but it sounds like that time isn’t now. Eventually folks will have to accept that covid is with us and is never going away no matter how many times we get jabbed.”

    I’ve heard about this breaking up families. I guess it is breaking up mine.

    I just got a death notice email from my HS and was saddened to find out it was one of my classmates who I’d consider one of my good friends from the past who had died. I initially met him through Boy Scouts. His dad was a scoutmaster of a troop across town and my dad had met him through Wood Badge training. Our troop split a site with their troop at summer camp for many years. Played football together in high school and were regulars hanging out at parties and creating mischief around town throughout high school and college. We went to different colleges but still got together often on the weekends. We lost touch during my medical training. Last time I saw him was at my dad’s wake when he brought his now elderly dad to pay his respects. One of those people in your life you can pick up without missing a beat despite the passage of time. No idea of the cause of death.

    I made a substantial donation to his newly established scholarship fund but got an email back telling me they didn’t have any recently deceased alum’s with that name. Turns out I chose the wrong Cardinal Spellman HS! They were super quick to cancel it for which I was grateful.

    Finally done. They asked me to come in 3 hours early but the doctor wound up an hour and a half behind.
    It was chilly in there and I was already shivering from dehydration. Felt so rotten this morning, I had to call them to ask if I can have more water, 2 hours before my ‘scheduled procedure…which you can. Two hours is the limit.

    Next time I will avoid this particular prep. Made me nauseous all night long. There was another lady who they took right back because she was puking all night due to her prep. I hear there are pills you can take instead, but you have to ask for them.

    Anyhoo, TMI time.. two polyps removed from stomach, one near the rectum. And I will have to see another guy to get an ultrasound in the stomach….on an area that may need to be removed or not.

    Still feel like crap from the prep and no sleep.

    Leon, you and me both…though to get an internal ultrasound of the stomach, they have to put you out, and fill it up. Hmm. Think my mom had a tumor removed from hers, years ago.

    I did wake up in pain because when they snake that thing around the large intestines corners, sometimes they have to press the abdomen on the outside to help guide it, since the guts can fold up on itself. That makes those spots tender and they have to worry about perforating it…o_O…yeah that’s something I didn’t need to hear.

    Jackie texted back:

    “Geoff, I am so sorry if I offended you by asking. Someone asked me if everyone was vaccinated and so I sent the text to everyone. I totally agree that COVID is here to stay and when you go into any store, restaurant etc you are with people that are not and those that are and you have to do what you feel is best for yourself whether to wear a mask or not or whatever. I apologize and hope that you will still join us. ❤️”

    So all is well.

    Laura, I agonized all night whether I should just tell her. After all, we are both jabbed, so I wouldn’t have had to lie, but the more I thought about it the more I just couldn’t comply with the dumbassery.

    We’re going to dinner with a friend tomorrow night. Two other friends were invited but declined because “we aren’t going to restaurants right now.”

    Idiots.

    Get home from work to find out the better half’s primary care doc called. With all the tests & crap they did with her last hospitalization, they discovered cancer. No other details other than report to the oncology unit of a hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana next Friday. My, and her, blood pressures don’t need this stress & uncertainty. How about some God damned details you fucking nitwits?

    This Friday, as in 2 days? Or a full 9 days? If it’s 9 days any decent doctor return your call if you asked for more details. Giving information that you know for sure and clearly stating what you don’t know for certain is much more than you know now.

    Sorry to read that Dave. Hopefully it’s one of the easier ones. Mom got diagnosed with thyroid cancer several years ago – the dr said if you have to get cancer, that’s the one you want. Also, I don’t know why it’s so hard to get information out of hospitals / medical staff.

    Leon you need to clarify who the Master is. Brandon fancies little girls, so rubbing one of them off on his forehead is a geunder specific impossibility regardless how the little girl or her parents identify her gender, pronouns can’t create a penis no matter how much one may wish it so. On the other hand there’s Fauci, who has that creepy look like a cub scout dwn father that’s too eager to take the troop camping with no adult supervision.

    DNH, many prayers for you and yours.

    Was able to take a short snooze on the sofa. Nice.

    I imagine your asshole is moving plenty right now awake or asleep.

    Now see, that might have been the problem with the particular prep I took. After the initial tsunami, like full open spigot faucet…..nada. It sat there for awhile…making me incredibly nauseous. Drinking anything made me nauseous. Stomach felt like a rock.

    With the prep of my last screening, once the first dose moved far enough down, it was blam blam blam, hostage-style-squeak-don’t walk too far away from the terlit and there was some relief. It moved…did not fester. Only nausea happened when trying to down the 2nd dose.

    Dave, that sucks. The dingbat should have left a way for you to contact after hours with such news. I’m sure you can get ahold of him first thing in the morning.

    Do you do “MyChart”, where you have access to all medical records and tests done, in your neck of the woods? If so, maybe the answer would be there?

    A hug and a prayer just sent your way.

    The Golem has “EMETH” on its forehead. If you rub out the “E” it stops and becomes dead clay again.

    I don’t know who the master is. Fauci is just a clerk passing money to buy clay. He might think he’s in charge because it’s funnier to let him think that for whoever is, but he’s not.

    And Biden ate some of the clay.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golem

    The Golem of Prague is the most famous story, might even be the original inspiration for Frankenstein. Master makes monster to fight the enemy, monster goes out of control, monster turns on master. It’s one of those myths in the grand sense, a metaphor for one dealing in powerful forces only to be destroyed by them, this is just the most recent iteration. There are older tales of clay men going back to before writing.

  103. Comment by osoloco11 on January 12, 2022 9:12 pm

    I thought the Golem was the origin story for Superman?

    Golems show up in the Discworld books.

  108. Comment by leoncaruthers on January 12, 2022 9:21 pm

    I thought Superman was two Jewish guys writing how the Jesus story was supposed to go. A kingly messiah rather than a suffering servant.
    Not insulting Jews at all, I’m pretty sure that’s what Siegel intended.

    It’s also supposedly why Judas sold Jesus out. He knew what Jesus could do and was hoping to provoke Him to assert Himself as a martial power. The thirty pieces of silver wasn’t even that much money, just what they offered. Judas was a Zealot, he didn’t care that much about the money, he wanted Rome out of Israel and thought this would bring out the King David in the man he knew.

    Oh man I don’t want to know. I’m seriously just thinking of the modern story based on ancient myths of hubris.

  112. Comment by leoncaruthers on January 12, 2022 9:27 pm

    The big difference this time is that in most of the myths, the “master” has genuinely benign intent, he just does something that Man isn’t supposed to and it comes back to wreck him. It’s a subset of the “Hubris invites Nemesis” genre that’s all over the place in ancient myth.

  113. Comment by leoncaruthers on January 12, 2022 9:28 pm

    There was nothing benign this time, just a benign fig leaf for the grant proposal.

  114. Comment by osoloco11 on January 12, 2022 9:36 pm

    Two Jewish guys resurrecting the Golem as an hero, when the world needed heroes.

  115. Comment by leoncaruthers on January 12, 2022 9:44 pm

    I thought Superman’s “birth” was a direct ripoff of Moses in the Nile.

    some really nice titties in this poat. thanks for the double up on Fridy

  118. Comment by osoloco11 on January 12, 2022 9:56 pm

    It was a combination. A Jewish hero. Combination of Golem and Moses. I remember reading interviews before I became a Marvel. There were a few weird YA novels in the late 70s that had weird Superman and Catcher in the Rye vibes going on.

  119. Comment by scott on January 12, 2022 9:57 pm

    We might be on death watch again.

    Lumper tested positive for The Koof today. Laura is not feeling well, and I have been fighting something.

    I have doubled up on snake oils. Worst of it was a slight fever on Monday and a bit of a cough on Tuesday.

    Has anyone heard of “covid fog”?? Ever since my father came back from the hospital he’s been a zombie. He has no symptoms of anything, just sits or lays on the couch all day saying and doing nothing. Occasionally he shuffles to the garage for a cigarette or to the bathroom. He won’t eat anything either.

  125. Comment by Mitchell on January 12, 2022 11:09 pm

    Sister-in-law insists “covid fog” is A Thing. I’ve never heard of it before.

  126. Comment by beasn on January 12, 2022 11:16 pm

    I’ve heard of it..and long covid. If something like IVM, quercetin, and/or NAC works for the latter, why not the former?

  127. Comment by Mitchell on January 12, 2022 11:23 pm

    Just looked it up – can last weeks or even months. I don’t think I can keep up with this for months.

  128. Comment by osoloco11 on January 12, 2022 11:28 pm

    Mi familia that lived had the COVID back in November 2020. Long COVID. Tinnitus. Depression. COVID brain. They are not taking any of the urban myth treatments.

  129. Comment by Hotspur on January 12, 2022 11:51 pm

    Jackie sounds like a lovely person. I hope you all have a wonderful time, Hotspur.

    Indeed she is. Best cousin ever.

    Well she’s ten years my junior, so we were never “kissing cousins”. (That was June, who’s been dead for several years.) But she is sweet, and for that I’m very grateful. I should have known it wasn’t her idea.

    We’ll all have a blast, like we always do.

  130. Comment by Hotspur on January 12, 2022 11:53 pm

    Well, except for the dumbass whose idea it was in the first place – one of the spouses, no doubt.

  131. Comment by leoncaruthers on January 12, 2022 11:55 pm

    I was like that for most of March, 2020, Mitchell. Wake, work, eat, sleep and hope tomorrow was better. Didn’t feel like myself until mid May or so.

  132. Comment by Hotspur on January 13, 2022 12:03 am

    The banishment of ivermectin and HCQ by the druid democrats will go down in history as one of the evil acts of all time.

    Party of science, indeed.

  133. Comment by Hotspur on January 13, 2022 12:04 am

    And while we’re on the subject of evil acts, January 13 is my first wife’s birthday.

    Worst wife ever.

  134. Comment by osoloco11 on January 13, 2022 12:05 am

    HS, mi familia postponed funerals for 2 years. Vax Nazis are back in place for my mom. My loser sister is being blocked by the cousins that took care of mom for the last 2 years. My bro stood up and paid my moms cousins

  135. Comment by Hotspur on January 13, 2022 12:06 am

    Goes to show that we can choose our friends, but not our families.

    You can borrow some of my cousins if you like.
