Big Dilemma

What's for lunch?

Egg Poo Poo Young? From the Chinese Dump, that never passes inspection? And have the runs for two days?

Or a greasy Fast Food Burger that's one molecule away from being plastic? And stopping me up, like brick Mason's mortar?

Tough Choice!
 
Wow, 87 degrees here in the shade! What's going to happen as we really get into summer?
Work? That's funny because my contractor isn't here doing it? :rolleyes: Maybe later into the evening when it's cooler?

DeathGrip,,,that was pretty funny! :D

So hot out back I seen this guy going down the road?

Back from day two at the Museum of the USAF. Did all four hangers, handed my electric mobility cart to someone who needed it more and then found out the 3-D movies were sold out for the afternoon. Sigh.
I found a suspicious helicopter now indoors in the "Cold War" collection next to a WB-29 Weather recon plane. The area is still under development. They have spotted their hangars, but the lighting still needs work. I had to use a flashlight to read some of the signs / descriptions.

Good morning all. Strange dream last night of aliens wanting to abduct me. I told them to put on their pants and if they tried to abduct me again I'd rip them a new one and shove a probe up it. They went away mumbling something about going to get smoked brisket?

I just went outside and it feels like a wet 80 degrees, I'll say it's 80 and muggy. Chances of severe scattered thunderstorms today are 50% after 7:00 AM. I'll be back from my walk about that time. Relax a bit and if there are no storms on the weather radar walk to Trader Joe's for a couple of things.

I'm going to head out for my walk now. If I run into those aliens I sure hope they found their pants and put them back on. Each of you have a great day!

That's why i connect to them. The No-Pants thing.
Aliens Rule !!
You nailed it Kwelske.

If you like the Coen Brothers, and I'm guessing there's a fan or two around here, you'll like their latest, "Hail, Caesar".

It's not their best, but I give it a solid 8, on a scale of one to ten.

The cast is great, with new actors (Ralph Feinnes) and old favorites (Frances McDormand)). The story is interesting, the acting is top-notch as always, and the characters are as quirky as ever. And it has that Coen-esque visual appeal!

This movie let them show several old movie styles, like those old swim movies, and singing cowboy westerns.

This movie never made it to the big-screen, at least in these parts. I was disappointed. I try to see all their work as it was meant to be seen, before I watch it at home.

Anyway, thumbs up- recommended!

Love their stuff Robert. I will be looking for this at
the REDBOX. I can enjoy it more at home.:):)

A line of heavy rain is moving through my part of town, therefore it must be Beer Time!

At Trader Joe's this morning I picked up a bottle of Sierra Nevada Beer Camp Across America Collaboration... Family Values Imperial Brown Ale for $2.34. The name is so long, I'll let the pictures tell the story. It is one of six brews in a mixed 12 pack that sells for $27 to $28. Trader Joe's sells them individually, so I decided to give this one a try.

Good beer, in a style that is of its own making. I'd pay $8 a six pack for this occasionally, but the cost benefit is not there for me for this beer to become a regular for me at $2.34 per 12 ounce bottle. Wild rice in beer, that's a first for me. It obviously does not conform to German beer purity laws.

Cheers!

:cool:

Independence Day the aliens are back. National Museum of the Air Force, Rand McNally took me to the wrong gate again. According to the Airman on gate duty it happens all the time.
I forgot to take my "mobility impaired" hanger with me, I had to hike in..not making that mistake again.
The Museum has electric mobility carts available free, I think that alone is worth a $50 donation, done!

Who needs to do this, that and wash up, wife still in bed, this is a good thing, she needs her rest. Tomorrow starts the long journey west to Colorado, we will see how that goes.

Sounds like you and the wife are having a good trip sir.

Be careful about buying tobacco products once you hit
the Colorado state line.:eek:
Might be wise to check your store bought edibles as well.:D:D

Stay Safe, Have Fun

Hi drifters, from the Black Hills!
Pretty darn hot here, even up in the Hills.
Got catching up to do on the drift but thought I would give a report from the HOT Hills, 90° right now, but still cooling down to 60's at night.
Trip has been good so far except for a little mechanical trouble on the way. Fuel gauge sensor blew a leak @ 14psi, so diesel spraying under the hood. Luckily a rest stop before a road construction stage. Took the easy way, cut the line, bent it over and secured with cable ties! Some burns on my arm from working on a hot engine, but we had to get moving to get air moving for the horses in the trailer. 400 miles later still holding!
On to the good, son and grand son went fishing on Pactola Reservoir this morning.
When we checked on them, grandson had 3 rainbows from 14"-16" trolling. Son watching the deep finder says they are coming up from 60' and biting at 30'. Says he has seen several large ones on the finder, assumes lakers, so he is baiting up for them, e.g. bigger spoons! Got several nice ones two years ago. Last year Pactola was closed due to high water while we were here.
Been on the phone responding to some code and inspection issues that had to be done, and wife is handling her 160+ emails?
Enough for now, sitting on the camp store porch and watching the cattle across the road chase the geese out of the pond. Water level went a foot when all the cattle got in! 😜
Keep drifting and stay cool !!!!!! ⛄
 
As a 5th grader, I once beat a 6th grade kid down...and choked him...in Sunday School...in church...because he mocked my grandmother who announced a "weenie roast" for the kids. If not for the efforts of the Sunday School teacher, I may have ended up in kiddie custody undergoing therapy. That kid nearly met his Maker that very day. Do not mess with grandma.

Now I want beanie weenies.

Just pretend this is hwitty.
My try at getting to be a juvenile delinquent. Think I was 6, maybe 7. AFB my Dad was doing construction on. So the neighborhood was filled with military kids. We had a bully, Tony, who was probably 12 or so, mother was a German warbride, anybody remember that term? He picked on smaller, younger kids! Dad had a rule,if you can't whip them, make hurt so bad they leave you alone. Tony got me once alone! Next time I was ready! When he came after me, he failed to notice the ball bat I had behind my back. He took the first swing, I took the final, a roundhouse to his head! They called an ambulance and the sheriff! Deputy who came saw my age vs. Tony, and told my Mom that they had a stack of reports on Tony. Nothing further was done, imagine that now! For some reason no other kids wanted to try me again? Lasted till we moved to the next base construction project in another state. Kids in those days were different, and things only flared up once in a while? A mean slide into a base, a rough tackle or similar usually solved everything. Mercurochrome and a bandaid, and on to the next day!
