TOOLS EXPLAINED

DRILL PRESS : A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted project which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it.

HHD

Welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day. Back in the saddle again after a busy, hectic week. Let’s get started.

Now for the hunks. This is the week for stolens and leftovers.

HHD

Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day. Yes, I know what day it is, and I choose not to celebrate it here. There will be plenty of other posts and articles today dealing with it, so I am going to be chirpy and ogle some fine lookin’ men in my own poat. Let’s get started.

Now for the hunks.

Summer’s Swan Song

Here it is, the unofficial end of summer. If your kids aren’t already back to school they’ll be there soon. Visions of paste and sharpened #2 pencils fill our heads. It already  feels a little like fall here. Nights are cooler and the humidity is long gone. When I went to the grocery store I saw the mums and Halloween candy out. Even the national burnt coffee chain has rolled out the PSL before Labor Day. We’ll probably have another heat wave or two before fall begins in earnest. I wish someone would let the ticks and mosquitoes know it’s time to go away.

Good morning, and welcome to Hunky Hump Day, the poat of the week where we can actually show nips. Let’s get this day started.

Now for the hunks.
A discussion of stupid-looking weapons brought up “Sword and the Sorcerer”. Lee Horsley’s lookin’ pretty good here.

Gender Neutral Russia

I’ve always been fascinated with Mother Russia. Wait. Is that triggering? I guess we should start calling it gender neutral Russia. You know mothers can be fathers right? I’ll start over.

I’ve always been fascinated with cisRussia. Not today’s pussy version; the full blown commie war machine that defeated the Nazis with their incredibly effective strategy of throwing about 9 million young men into the maw of Hitler’s army. Either march forward and get blown away, or retreat and get shot by your own guys. Touch choice for the Igors.

Total WWII casualties are thought to be around 20 million but no one really knows for sure. To put that into perspective, the glorious CCCP lost the equivalent of today’s population of NYC, LA, Chicago, Houston, Phoenix, and Philadelphia. Or as most of the blog would say, ‘a good start.‘

Much like you, I’m really amused at the Russian follies going on in the media. It’s really driven by two factors: 1. They still don’t accept the outcome of the election and 2. a total lack of historical perspective prior to 2005. It’s just fucking awesome to watch the political/media brain trust try figure out the basics of Russian geography, let alone culture. Pretend you know nothing. Now pretend you are in a soundproof, lightproof box buried under the Siberian tundra. You are more prepared to discuss Russia than Brian Stelter, Steven Colbert, or Katy Tur.

Good morning, and welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
They were obviously doing a lot of drugs in the late 70’s, early 80’s.

Hi Mare.

HHD

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

I was all set to put more effort into this week’s HHD to make up for last week, when Beasn went and gave me all the poat fodder I needed. Thank you, ma’am. This week’s hunks are courtesy of the Charleston, SC firefighters and their calendar fundraiser to help abused and abandoned animals. Hubba hubba!
