Good morning, and welcome to today’s edition of Hunky Hump Day.
First, the song of the day. Mr. RFH played this for me last week, but it might be a repeat here.
Now for the hunks.
Birthday boy Stephen Huszar.
Fake redhead for Carin.
Older and hairier.
I could use some beach time.
Left over from last week.
Last, but not least.
And that will have to do.
Thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the links every week. Y’all have a good day.

Checking Your Mom's Drawers for Hope&Change since March 2009 
Good morning Rooster Hypnotizers and Inner Core Reversers
I studied the Easter egg model to determine whether she was, in fact, sans pantalones or not and cannot make a determination with the photo that was provided. More research is necessary.
Great music selection Roamy – the song, the record label logo and the band having fun performing in it. It gave me an 80’s retro feel and I’m willing to bet most of that band wasn’t even born in the 80’s. Fun!
We’ve got a calm before the storm day today before snow tonight and tomorrow. Forecast was anywhere from 5 to 8 inches which is the same range your mom prefers to keep her dentures from getting knocked out.
I picked up something called Blender Bombs thinking they sounded good and I might like a smoothie every now and then.
https://blenderbombs.com/collections/blender-bombs/products/blender-bombs-original
They’re as appealing as crack cocaine is to Hunter Biden to my lovely wife who has rediscovered that we have a blender, the sound of which woke me up this morning as she prepped a smoothie for after the gym.
Happy wife, happy life and all that I guess
From the WSJ Markets newsletter:
“Mining companies are ramping up supplies of critical minerals for rechargeable batteries such as lithium, cobalt and nickel. Graphite, a key battery component, has largely been overlooked.
That is about to change. Some of the world’s biggest auto and battery makers and the U.S. government are racing to secure graphite supplies amid looming signs of shortages of the mineral suitable for batteries. So far graphite prices haven’t reflected the tight supply.
“Graphite always seems to be the forgotten battery material, yet it’s in half the battery,” said Brent Nykoliation, executive vice president of NextSource Materials, which is developing a graphite project in Madagascar. “It’s the largest raw material in the battery.”

There is a pop-up of Miss Blender Bomb on Jimbro’s link…WOOF!
https://is.gd/fmCmx0
Meant to post this last night but I fell asleep early.
Hopefully drinking multiple blender bombs won’t give Paula caterpillars over her eyes like Miss Blender Bomb’s
It says they have blender bombs at the walmart near me.
wakey wakey
Good morning.
Snowy windy day shifting to rain later. We have a delivery today and the van is no good in snow. Scott suggested we might leave the van at the warehouse tonight and just all come back in my car. We’ll see how the roads look at quitting time.
I hope Teresa’s kid is doing better today. Please check in when you can, lady.
I looked at the ingredients and it’s just a calorie bomb, Jimbro. The BS about how they contain dates and honey but magically won’t cause your blood sugar to skyrocket after you blend them up with fruit made me chuckle.
Don’t worry about her eyebrows; if Paula makes that a daily habit she’s gonna grow another whole ass.
Leon likes gals with two butts but I don’t think it’s really Jimbro’s thing.
Dates, Almonds, Pecans, Walnuts, Hemp Seed, Chia Seed, Honey, Ground Flaxseeds, Bee Pollen, Sea Salt, Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon, Dry Vinegar, Aloe Vera Leaf Juice (Aloe Barbadensis)
*****
These are all things that are good for you.
Red sky at morning, sailors take warning. Pretty though.
Well, I’m allergic to aloe, but yes, these are all good ingredients. Whipping up a fruit frappe every day? This is not good for you. Better to eat whole fruit and slow down the breakdown of those cell walls and sugar release. If you whip it you WILL get slammed with a sudden sugar spike which is unhealthy.
Reinforcing it with extra calories and sugars? Your jeans will be getting tight by the weekend.
Every nutrient you can get from fruit, you can get from vegetables, without the pile of sugar. You’re better off crumbling that mildly sweet nut-treat over a salad at lunch. It’s probably wonderful that way.
My smoothies – when I do make them – don’t have very much fruit in them. A few (frozen) berries and maybe a bit of banana. Protein powder, almond milk, ice.
Undoubtedly the better way to go.
I don’t really care for sweet things – in drinks. Coffees, etc. Probably why I’m not a milkshake fan. Just a little hint of sweetness is all I need.
Sorry to poo-poo your neat new thing Jimbro. It occurs to me that I’m more and more as cynical to marketing as they come, these days.
OH, I’m trying it.
I know lots of men hate them, but men look good in suits.
Same, Carin. I can’t take sweets like I could in my 20s, when I was a pastry-loving gal with a metabolism like a hummingbird. I do love a juicy winter pear once in a while though. Moderation, etc.
Agree with Mare. Rarrr.
CORRECTION:
Happy spouse, happy house.
Make those men happy too.
calm down
I think I saw a comment once that the male equivalent of lingerie was a well-tailored suit. It’s an interesting thought.
bahaaaa haaaa haaaa … he is SO bad at this.
I really wish local temps would pick a range and stay there. This back and forth is making it hard to get over this crud I’ve been kicking around. Going to visit the one urgent care I learned my plan actually covers. Kissing $75 goodbye. UHC is a scam.
a well-tailored suit
Also like some rugged carhartt work clothes. Different/ same. Again, rarrr.
Went to check out the Sam Smith performance on SNL (why? Who knows why I do anything).
So there is this – “According to Capitol, Gloria explores Smith’s personal journey through “sex, lies, passion, self-expression, and imperfection.” The artist released the title track on Friday, hailing it a “queer love hymn.”
Dude sings for maybe 60 seconds in the song. I’m sorry, THEY/THEM sing for 60 seconds. Peak narcissism.
I’m up a few pounds.
Picture someone with an angry face with a downturned
mouth, eyebrows in an angry position, nose pinched, and red faced. Got that? That’s me looking at the scale with zero estrogens.
On the other hand, I may be holding onto water. Going carnivore for a few days might solve my problem.
Liver King, Mare. Liver. King.
My bil was going to follow the “Lion diet” whatever the heck that is.
Modern suits are mostly garbage at anything less than a couple thousand bucks anymore. You can look fine, so long as you’re only standing still for photos, but they are tailored to the pose, not the man.
It’s a carnivore diet with a name you can sell.
We should market the Spider Diet. Liquified meats. We could be like 4chan, spreading nonsense around and laughing.
Coyote Diet: just squirrels, rabbits, and feral cats.
And I’ve heard the argument that we’re a lot more like spiders than we are like lions in at least one regard. A lot of our “digestion” is external, and we effectively “eat” cooking fuel along with our food.
True about digestion being external. This is taught innursing school. The contents of our alimentary canal are technically outside the body, since its surfaces are contiguous with our skin.
‘Splain to me the cooking fuel bit?
I could use some sunshine too, but it’s snowing hard here. Supposed to get 3-6″.
Whatever we use to cook food is consumed in the process of us digesting it. The spider is coughing up acid to do the work, but we cut down trees or dig coal or frac gas to cook with, and we effectively can’t eat without this extra feedstock. Well, we can, but it’s risky for us unless we’re extremely careful with the meat or whatever.
Cooking over direct fire from wood gives you some trace minerals from the wood itself, but that’s noise, I’m just talking about the fact that we need wood or whatever effectively as a nutrient.
Imagine if we were like starfish, and had to disgorge our digestive system onto our target meal, dissolve and absorb it there, and then suck it all back into the body. What a spectacle your average dinner party would be.
Forks and knives would not exist and dinner plates would have to be redesigned drastically.
OK I’m seeing the fuel ‘consumption’ as part of the meal preparation but not the nutrient bit. To my mind, if it isn’t absorbed and used inside the body it’s not a nutrient.
I like She’s Kerosene, and I wish to subscribe to their newsletter
so that’s ska?
I take your point, but I’m using nutrient in the sense of “can’t live without it”. We’re not exactly omnivores anymore, we’re “cochtivores” who can’t thrive on raw food except in very specific circumstances.
+ 2 Lizards, one at work who lives in my building’s electrical transformer, one on my back porch who was gonna die but I saved him with heat from a work light and he scrambled back up the wall under the siding when he warmed up.
At least the A&W Bear will be wearing pants moving forward
Catching up on last night –
Montague Mass is only a couple miles from Athol Mass.
We probably founded the town.
I saved him with heat from a work light
heh, my uncle told me a story when he was little. They had chickens on the farm that used to roost in a tree during the day. They had a terrible ice storm, and they froze to the tree. He was given the task of taking their corpses off the tree. He put them in the coop to take care of burying later.
When he went to go clean up the bodies, turned out they just needed to be thawed out, and scared the crap out of him when he opened the door to chicken life.
We’re not exactly omnivores anymore, we’re “cochtivores” who can’t thrive on raw food
As opposed to cocktivores like your mom
ZOMBIE CHICKENS
OK, off to work.
This is my husband, aka Mr. ONE TRIP.
My grandmother called that a lazy man’s load.
I’m totally guilty of it too. By the time you load it all up, then a few things slide off on the way, or you trip and drop th whole load, or bump into something, you should have made two trips, but you think you are saving time and energy.
LOL

Turn down the contrast.

Since nobody uses pencils anymore we ought to have oodles of it.
I’m on the opossum diet, whatever I can get and hiss at anyone who gives me crap about it.
we should create graphite from all the carbon in the atmosphere, since it’s killing us!
We have been going to the same mexican restaurant before games and we are undefeated at home. I don’t see us breaking that streak anytime soon. Next Saturday, Kansas!
roamy, did you see that the Cardinals just signed Chip Caray to their broadcasting team? I didn’t realize he grew up in St Louis.
And now a word from noted conspiracy theorist…
*checks notes*
Bill Gates?
haha, went down a rabbit hole. Seems Chip has identical twin sons, who are also broadcasters:
They are the newly minted broadcasters for the Double-A Amarillo Sod Poodles and, the team claims, the first set of identical twin broadcast partners in baseball history.
Sod Poodles is another great name, I need a hat.
twitter: Gavin Newsome is a Catholic?
Who knew? Guess he can go to communion with Nan and Brandon.
Gavin Newsome is Catholic like Joe Biden is coherent. It’s obviously and demonstrably false.

Gotta say, been happy with McCarthy so far.

Jimmy Carter just announced that he found classified documents in his house.
I almost tweeted this as a joke yesterday but it is actually true now.
Everyone is coming out of the woodworks to cover for Biden’s treasonous misstke.
Huh.
twitter: social contagion is a factor in the dramatic increase in children and adolescents identifying as transgender
Who knew? Umm, everybody paying attention?
twitter: Former spokesperson for Extinction Rebellion turns on group, now rejects climate doomsday
In other words, discovers facts instead of “the science”.
LOL
It takes fifteen rounds of voting to incubate a set of testicles.
There is zero question in my mind that Pence spoke up about classified documents to provide cover for Biden.
He’s a cun*!
same reason Carter did. but at least he’s the same party.
I notice the good Reverend Pence said fuck all nothing when it was the orange man in the sights.
Amanda Carpenter (of The Bulwark) wondering on twitter if they should care about the RNC chair.
I said no, since you aren’t a republican any more.
BWAHAHAHAAHA This is an actual article:
twitter: Man caught his girl cheating on him after he fixed her car & as soon as he found it out he snatched the Entire Engine
Haven’t seen that method of pulling an engine. Effective!
heh, mare. I think Scott Adams and Bill Gates read that and decided to cover their asses.

My husband walks in and says “did you order something from catturd.”
He isn’t on twitter and was very confused.
…several days later re soaking/fermenting…
“I can remember my friend’s ex wife putting a scoop of yogurt in a pan of uncooked oatmeal mixed with water overnight before cooking it the next morning. I wonder if that’s the same idea.”
Yes. We only have one stomach and need a little help from friendly bacteria of the microscopic world to do some of our digesting for us. Phytates need to be neutralized and nutrients unbound..for us to properly digest.
In the traditions cookbook they recommend soaking oats (grains, legumes) in whey, yogurt, kefir, or buttermilk. (For those allergic or intolerant to dairy…lemon juice or vinegar which is total bullshit because that is all you taste in the final product. Which sucks because I like oatmeal. )
Beasnsnsnsns, what have you been up to?
Eggs are causing all the blood clots y’all. Do not question The Science.
MJr has the covids. I taught him to say it like that which is hilarious and one of the many benefits of being a parent. He got it at school, we think, because some asshole parent reported that their kid was around someone who had covid recently. But who knows?
That said, he can return to school after 5 days as long as he tests negative but has to wear a mask for 5 days. Or, he can return after 10 days with no mask and a negative test.
He has no symptoms. This morning he put on his Halloween costume (astronaut) and we played mission control for about an hour. Many, many asteroids were avoided. Then we battled an alien (dragon pillow pet) and built a lego spaceship. When I had to jump on meetings, GND took over and they wrote stories and practiced spelling. She’s no fun, obviously.
Anyway, the point is that there is literally no change in him other than he tested positive. If he wasn’t required to be tested no one would have known. And more than likely he’ll miss a few weeks of school because…reasons.
This is all so fucking dumb.
I love sweets. I have some frozen strawberries and raspberries I can make into a smoothie. Unfortunately, it’s way too cold for that right now.
Hmm…maybe what I need to do is get a second house in the other subtropical zone and just switch back and forth so that I’m always in the warmer hemisphere. Two summers a year sounds pretty awesome to me.
I’m with you Peel. I can’t take the cold anymore.
I’m buying a small condo in St Pete when the real estate market crashes again.
And more than likely he’ll miss a few weeks of school because…reasons.
Probably end up all the smarter for it too.
I haven’t really been following the Damar Hamlin story other than knowing it’s a guy who had a heart attack on a football field due to the covid vaccine. *

I keep seeing tweets asking him to show his face and reassure his fans.

I’d be ok with every ex-president (plus the Rodham cunt) spending some serious time in Leavenworth for unauthorized possession of classified material. DJT would just have to take one for the team.
This is all so fucking dumb.
Extremely. I’m waiting for basically any excuse to disenroll Possum at this point, but so far they’ve been pretty reasonable.
I always think it’s some giant plan to dumb down the population.
But the reality is that it’s risk averse middle aged women making almost every decision about everything.
No matter what system you’re in, there’s an obese, summer cardigan wearing, gossip TV watching, 48 year old liberal arts major making the decisions.
I hate that liberal arts majors have ruined the term.
The guy who made “Civilisation” series was a liberal arts major, back when that meant something. My professor in Great Books could recite Thucydides and Homer in the original Greek. Serious scholarship has been demolished by woke shite.
Eggs are causing all the blood clots y’all.
Wait, I thought it was gas stoves? Global Climate? Systematic Institutionalized Racism? So hard to keep up.
Hear me out.
What if what’s causing the blood clots is that we haven’t tossed Bill Gates into an active volcano? There’s really only one way to be sure.
i only cook eggs in the microwave, so I’m safe
The university system needed as much fresh meat as possible in order to jack up tuition income. Standards were lowered, and the stupid ones that had no business in college in the first place were dumped into the LS&A schools.
It’s a fact that if you look at the SATs school by school, the low men on the totem pole by a long shot are the kids in LS&A schools. This is the conduit where the teachers come from.
So, not only are they the least intelligent, but these are the schools with the unchecked liberal indoctrination.
These purple haired whales have your children for seven hours a day.
Digestion takes energy. Cooking food starts breaking it down lowering the energy cost. This allowed humans to evolve a larger brain which uses more energy and have a smaller less energy intensive digestion system. Leon stated the same thing, but in the most convoluted way.
Yes, it’s the reason gorillas have fermentation vats for torsos.

Don’t forget the former draft-dodging hippies who turned into 75-year-old wealthy liberals driving EVs. Those two cohorts comprise a powerful group of horribly misguided people who would be happy to sacrifice you “for your own good.”
heh, I was wondering that too, HS
did he just discover Sanford and Son?
One would expect that the members of the Intelligence committee possess some intelligence.
No?
Lost a retired friend from work yesterday. He had a massive stroke. He was a good guy and I played a lot of golf with him. However he was a big time democratic and got all his information from NPR and PBS. I don’t know for sure but he probably had all the shots they tell you take. He was the best program manager I’ve ever worked with.
There’s a sidebar article on the subject, HS. I haven’t read it but apparently there was another incident on par with Busty Lesbian Porn.
heh, I missed it, because there are so many ads it gets pushed down.

8pm another Project Veritas Pfizer video comes out
This is my husband, aka Mr. ONE TRIP.

When I saw that it took me right back to my HS busboy job at a big Greek restaurant. It was New Year’s Eve and there was a big party of about 20 people who all ordered prime rib for some reason. Another busboy thankfully got tasked with carrying a tray of entrees and the waitress had the other. There was a shitton of beef on the trays. The busboy made it successfully but the waitress was mere feet away from the kitchen when the swinging door hit the back of her overloaded tray. The owner lost his shit and the waitress was in tears. I was a witness to the carnage but was in no way connected to it because I was cleaning a table in the same room. I took extra time and cleaned it very carefully while the dust settled on that cluster.

wonder if the big cavity waffle iron or the regular would be better? I’m thinking regular, and they look fantastic.
Getting back to the Blender Bomb thing from this morning, it’s for Paula who does more exercise in a week than I do in a few months. She’s back on the triathlon train and doing the winter training phase. After her big Half Ironman last fall she took time off which meant she “only” did CrossFit 4 or 5 times a week. Now it’s CrossFit + indoor bike + swimming + treadmill + 3 x 12 hour shifts so she needs the fuel. I’ve had exactly one glass of the first one she made just to see if I liked it.
I’ll be sure to let her know your concern about the potential for her ass expanding!
Chaffle sounds dirty
Your mom likes a dirty chaffle.
Spongebrain Shitpants is going to get us in a shooting war with Russia. Over freaking Ukraine. China will of course take the opportunity to move on Taiwan. I don’t think we can do a two front war. Can open, worms everywhere.
WW3 sure is taking its time. I remember thinking it was happening next week for most of the 80s. We could have won it then, but nooooooo, we had to keep kicking the can.
There is a big discrepancy on the Ukraine Tale we are being told by Western Media and what I read in articles linked in Debt Rattle by various milbloggers who aren’t afraid of calling things as they are without propaganda.
I don’t know who to believe but I view the idea that Ukraine will push Russia off of all of their territory including Crimea with increasing skepticism.
Abrams tanks need a few gallons of fuel per mile and are frequently in need of maintenance. I’m supposed to believe that Ukrainians with no training will use these tanks effectively and they will not be hit with anti-tank weapons.
The Sod Poodle gear is cute. Prairie Dog with a cowboy hat. Cute little ballpark. Amarillo is getting a Buc-ees. We’re waiting.
Most of the DIY brooder designs I’m seeing are a lot of plywood. I’m thinking I can make a 2′ box frame out of seven 8′ wall studs and then lining it with sheet vinyl flooring, then make another frame for the ‘lid’ with 3 more studs and some poultry netting or hardware cloth. Should be a lot easier to keep the pee stink down than if I have a wood floor under pine shavings.
No.
Is anyone on the fence about the vaccine? You’re dumb. And getting the covid vaccine because “I have an elderly parent” is just as stupid.
That’s just as good of a clip as when I linked it this morning, Mare.
Bill Gates is a James Bond-level villain. He needs to be stopped. Alas, we have no Jameses Bonds to do so.
Tanks. Great idea.
Decisions like this move me toward the simulation theory. I just can’t see how this isn’t the worst possible move.
In my adult life, every foreign policy decision by the US has been the wrong move. Every single one.
Foreign policy is driven entirely by defense contractors on both sides of the conflict, elected officials don’t really have any say. They just get their talking points and stock options to go with them.
After a certain point you start to get the idea it’s on purpose.
Which, it probably is, when you think about it.
Zelenksy is literally an actor. You can find video of him doing gay music videos just a few years back if you look. He was installed by the CIA in his current roost after a successful color revolution in 2014. Ukraine isn’t a country, it’s just a buffer for shuffling money between crime families on both sides of Eurasia.
Look at the list of companies Zelensky thanked for “pledging to rebuild Ukraine” and tell me I’m wrong.
Um, no.
There is no category where you’re 45% pedophile so hey don’t worry about it. Worry about the 51% pedos.
It’s an on or off switch.
The idea that everything is on a spectrum and there are no objectives truths puts a grown ass man in a room lecturing people about being just a little bit pedo.
Which we all know means, ‘I’m a pedo.’
Shorter version: tell me you’re a pedo without telling me you’re a pedo.
Huh, Leon, and I actually click on people’s links.
Sorry I missed yours.
MJ, that “professor” looks like a pedo.
Notice how all of this Ukraine dicking around has taken all attention off of Iran’s nuke program.
They’ll have one this year.
I just saw a news item on Instagram from an outside-the-box newsgroup that says that Putin took out an adrenochrome lab in Ukraine.
We know Ukraine is corrupt. We know it is a haven for sex trafficking. We know our dumbass politicians have an unnatural concern for Ukraine (of course, that’s most likely for the money being laundered to them) so I’m going to go ahead and absolutely believe that it happened. My conspiracy theories are at a 100% correct rate so I’m pretty confident we are going to hear about a lot of sketchy stuff that happened in Ukraine.
It also stated that Trump and Putin discussed this subject years ago.
Why do I always want to write The Ukraine instead of Ukraine? Was it a territory at some point?

EcoHealthAlliance was operating labs in Wuhan… and Ukraine.
“The Ukraine” is a reference to the territory. Historically, it was a part of the USSR/Russia, I believe it translates to “borderlands” or some such. It’s considered derogatory to call it that now since it’s totally a real country with a preznit and errything.
OH, RIGHT, I forgot about the virus labs!!
Honestly, protecting or hiding those labs makes a lot of sense. Someone so gung-ho like Crenshaw who is a dipshit muse of the WEF and is equally a cheerleader for Zelensky is very outspoken about giving money and weapons to Ukraine. The WEF loves world wide pandemic “viruses.”
Why?
I know why. It was rhetorical.
And let’s not forget Zelinsky “removing” any political or religious opposition.
Tyrant. First class.
Really enjoyed the photo down in the comments of the twit about the pedo professor:
“If pedophilia is just sexuality, then burying them is just gardening.”
Parody account, but well done.

Every time her elbow bends her mouth opens.
Loooove that t-shirt. I am tempted.
I grew up in the Amarillo area but haven’t lived there since ‘86. I still have lots of HS and college friends who live up there so I was made aware of the controversy over naming their beisboll team. A lot of people thought it was stupid but the powers that be insisted that sod poodle was a long established and long used nicname for Prarie Dogs which were at one time the predominant mammal in that neck of the woods. I had never heard the term nor had anyone else I knew. Some artsy fartsy femboi probably invented it out of new cloth. I’m glad outsiders like it.
I guess they could’ve named the team Nomadic Cows and swore up and down it was age old slang for Bison.
I have an old Childhood friend who is incapable of having a healthy relationship with a female so he imported a Ukrainian woman about ten years ago. She is about 20 years younger than him and very good looking. I asked him one time if they were married and his reply was, “we have an arrangement.” I suspect they’re married on paper so she can remain in US in exchange for an agreed upon quota of access to her nether regions. Purely speculation on my part. However, he is ALL FUCKING IN on us supporting Ukraine as you might guess.
Loooove that t-shirt. I am tempted.
David gets a couple of bucks every time, and he’s good people.
Pendejo, I have never heard of Prairie Dogs being called Sod Poodles. The mascot has a gun belt, but no gun or holster. lumps, the worst thing about being allergic to aloe, manufacturers put aloe in EVERYTHING. Home hair dye, aloe. Shampoo, aloe. Chapstick, aloe. When we travel, I have to bring my own soap, shampoo/conditioner, sunscreen, etc.
Dan says he’s bought his last suit. He currently attends funerals in the “Mexican tuxedo.” Pressed jeans, boots, and a western shirt. He has sports coats, but he isn’t wearing those any longer.
I’m aware, Oso! It is in everything skin-related. Weird thing about the current thing where people are ingesting it, I had read a long time ago that it is mildly toxic and has laxative effects.
Friend of mine married a Ukrainian women a while back. He got married in med school to a woman a class behind us and they had a kid. Less than a year later they were divorced. He’s big into disaster medicine, wrote the textbook about it. He went to some country to help with earthquake relief, Armenia I think, and met her there. I don’t know if she was the proximate cause for the divorce. I met her soon after she moved to the US and wasn’t too impressed. Fast forward a bunch of years later and she was speaking English with a Massachusetts accent and it was a whole new story – she is intelligent and funny. They had a couple of kids together and they’re in their 20’s now. I haven’t seen him in quite a while and really ought to remedy that.
Re: Mexican Tuxedo
Never heard the term but it fits.
In 2009 my younger daughter was homecoming Queen at our little rural west Texas HS. There were four other girls in the homecoming court, all were Mexican girls. So the daddies are sposta escort their daughters on the field at halftime for the crowning ceremony. My gringo ass wears a suit and tie. The other four daddies are wearing, black resistol felt cowboy hats, white Pearl snap western shirts (starched and pressed), black wrangler jeans, a huge assed rodeo style belt buckle, and black cowboy boots. I felt like I missed a memo or something.
Pendejo, that’s it!!!!
lumps, it seeps through the skin and the next day is spent on the toilet. My absolute worst allergic reaction was when my leg shaving cream got a “New” formula. I didn’t check. Lathered up, my leg immediately became inflamed and swollen. Luckily, Dan was home and was able to flush the shaving cream. 24 hours of insane pain and the laxative effect. Wipes have aloe.
I was unaware that aloe could be an allergen. For something that’s supposed to calm inflammation that’s kind of a dirty trick.
Less than 1% are allergic to aloe.
BITD I don’t wear makeup. Makeup party. Aloe based cleansers and makeup. My face turned red and became extremely swollen. Hostess was freaking out. I flushed my skin and had the next day laxative effects. Hostess got a company representative to fly to Albuquerque to explain how rare an aloe allergy really is
Jimbro, as it moves within the system, it MOVES within the system. As a child, I would get sunburned. My mom would use pure aloe on my sunburn. We thought the side effects were due to the sunburn. It was always the aloe.
The aloe diet.
I could lose 20# in one week. See also the local Chinese restaurant diet.
Want to know how great my day has been? I just got attacked by a pack of dogs and bitten repeatedly, and on balance it’s still been a great day.
Yikes! Hope everyone’s up on their shots, Sobek…
You should have called first.
People on rez don’t have home phones.
I’ve had the rabies shot series before, apparently I only need a booster or something now.
I’m not quite that allergic to it. I have somewhat painful skin sensitivity after topical application of products containing a decent amount of it. If it’s a negligible amount, I don’t notice. If pure aloe gel directly from the plant is applied to my sunburn, I scream and run to the shower because it’s like being set on fire. I do not understand how anyone could find this soothing. It is fire.
I have never had to fight more than one dog at a time.

What were we saying about suits earlier today?

“I have never had to fight more than one dog at a time.”
That is a good thing. They like to circle you so one or two can slways attack from behind. I grabbed the most aggressive one by the collar and swung it around by the neck at the other dogs while i retreated to my car, and that did the trick.
If you have deep puncture wounds you need to keep a close eye on them, or get some prophylactic ABX. If you feel heat, see redness, or dark lines, coming from the bite marks you must hie thee to the ED ASAP.
For MJr, if you didn’t already know.

Yes, don’t mess around. Some dogs have really bad bugs in their mouth.
Like general blood infection in 24 hours bad.
Im in the ER waiting room right now. I don’t seem to be a very high priority. The bites broke the skin, but didnt get through my pants, so i don’t think i got any saliva in the wounds. Pretty sure I’m okay. Getting the shot just to be sure.

Pasteurella spp as the #1 organism and it is on every standardized test about Ortho stuff I’ve ever taken
When they finally get to you just stand up, turn around, drop your trousers and bend over while saying “I’m just here for the shot”
I’m not going to do that.
Party pooper
lumps is right. 🔥 Herrera fam was = to Rez fam. Only Mexican. Gauntlet of pitties. They thought it was hilarious. Gram Herrera would hold me in her lap after I made it through the pit yard. They/Herrera’s treated Dan like 💩 He took elbows and punches. Gauntlet. My Anglo hubby has more respect than my Hispanic cousins. It is funny how much the white guy is respected more than pinche jotos. (Gays)
I am proud of my dog fighting record. Pretty sure I am undefeated, but there were a couple of ugly draws.
Our coyote friendly signs at the Condo are drawing descanso level floral tributes. I’m waiting for a coyote ghost bike. I think car v coyote FTW.
We have a new charcuterie book at work. Taste of Home.

Yes, they are coming after the supplements.

Been here an hour and a half, was just informed that they dont have rabies shots at this hospital.

Just rub some dirt in it. You’ll be fine.
Seriously tho, WTF?
It’s a pretty rural place, so not a level I trauma center or anything, but I’d think they could have figured that out sooner.
Ah, OK. Still, it rubs the dirt on the skin or else it gets the hose again.

Disappointingly, everyone received pinkslips.
Woo what a rainy night. Up a little too early but that’s okay. I should check the cellar and see if we took on water.
Yup.
This never used to happen until a few years ago. In hard rain, water starts to seep in from one wall right at cellar floor level. So annoying. I wonder if we need a french drain on that side of the house.
Can’t run the wet vac while Scott is sleeping.
Have to leave the house before 6:30 this morning on Secret Hunchback Business. Am wayyy ahead of schedule and none of you people are up to entertain me, which is wrong of you.
Pope Benedict’s posthumously published book accuses the Church of running gay clubs in the seminaries, which comports with what I have heard secondhand. A guy I used to date had a gay brother, and their family’s local priest was gay and a friend of the brother. This priest told the brother that in seminary, the older priests used to “run through the rooms at night,” in other words, they were bed-hopping with as many of the students they could. This information came to me about 25 years ago, and it had for sure been going on for a long time.
When I went to a family function at a church over ten years ago, I could see plainly that the priest, a guy in his late thirties or so, was a gay man. He also appeared to be supremely bored while performing the ritual for us all. This was the crappy job he had to do to support his real life.

TFG. Another brick falls out of place. I don’t abuse anybody, I don’t insult or harass people who live a lifestyle I think is pretty gross. But they keep pushing to normalize this, I start to wonder what the fuck is really going on.
They want to be accepted, when their behavior is actually disgusting. When I was a kid these people were fighting to be included in town parades, and they whitewashed themselves to make themselves look all family-friendly. Now their own pride parades are even more repulsive and degenerate than the people who “oppressed” them way-back-when feared they would be.
