I got my 2nd shingles shot on Friday. It pretty much kicked my *** yesterday. Feeling good this morning except for a sore arm where I got the jab.

Anyone else ready for the rain to end? Sterling Archer sure is.

When I got my shingles shot last year it also knocked me down for a bit. Made me apprehensive about the booster you need a couple months later. Happily, the booster was not a big deal.

I saw 3 different weather reports yesterday about the wind gusts over the peaks around Lake Tahoe. One said 143 MPH, a second said 160 MPH, and a 3rd said 190 MPH. Thankfully no one lives up there. We only had 67 MPH here.

We also got a smattering of sleet & hail. Right at the tail end of that it snowed for about 5 minutes. Only added up to about a 1/4 inch on the deck, and was melted within the hour.

The X's Dad came over.

It turns out that he was just bored, and couldn't think of anything else to do. Or anywhere else to go. I didn't have to do anything to entertain him. He could just hang out, and be bored here.

"What are you cooking, 5150?"

Sorry Baba. It's pork. You're not supposed to eat it. The same way you're not supposed to drink that Pabst Blue Ribbon that you're drinking.


The local Lucky Supermarket has 30 cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon on sale for $16.99. They also have a $5 rebate. You can't beat 30 cans of beer for $11.99. That's cheaper than soda.






They are proudly descended from The People of The Book. But somehow all of that religion got lost in translation when it came to what you're not supposed to do. He ate the pork stew.


Ginger. Garlic. Onion. Celery. Carrot. Potato. Pork. Salt. Pepper.

Just like beef stew. Only pork is a few dollars less per pound.

Tim, there's nothing like a hot stew on a cold day. Only real problem is that you can't make one serving. So now I'll be eating it for a few days.

The latest news on the truck, from yesterday, is that the alternator has not come in yet, and it should be here in a day or two. The truck will be finished this week. I don't believe it, but that is the latest word.

Tim, you are correct. Although I don't want stew for a few more weeks. Maybe even a few months. I have had my share of stew for awhile. Eating the same meal for a week does that.

I am wondering why the liberal left has not been screaming to ban tampons? After all, can't have a tampon assault without tampons.

There should be a background check, waiting period, and mandatory registration.

A missing person alert was issued. The only photo that they had was a booking photo.

Agreed!
Ebony alert huh? Whatever happened to the Amber Alert? Oh, wait, you said woman, not child. Never mind. I guess she skipped bail.
