Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Mitch Rolls In

The temp was 68 (F) when I left work last evening.  When I woke up this morning, the outside temp was 49 (F).  We are definitely experiencing a cooling off.  We're about a week away from Autumn, and I'm ready.  By next week our daily highs should be in the upper 60s (F) to low 70s (F), that's sweater weather; time for the cozy comfort of sweatpants and sweatshirts.

So, my flooring sale went through yesterday, that should keep management happy.  The only thing that will make them glum is the fact that I haven't gotten a measure so far this week.  This is the time year when people start to consider new flooring for the holidays; they want to impress during the holiday get togethers.  However, the price of diesel fuel has a direct influence on how much we charge for products, as well as the amount that people are willing to pay.  So, we may be hitting a very dry season.

I did get a morning workout in yesterday.  I'm taking the bits and pieces of my Trainwell workouts and repurposing them into something new and exciting.  I haven't actually canceled my subscription, but that will happen shortly.

I'm also considering buying a grain grinder and milling my own flour.  I'm seeing a lot of good things about spelt, which is an ancient wheat.

After 3 months, a rather slack jawed Mitch McConnel returned to work yesterday.


He is non-mobile, meaning he needs to be rolled to where ever he needs to go.  There are no pics of him voting, but supposedly he did.  He can't seem to keep his mouth open for very long.  As someone said, he is becoming the poster child for elder abuse.  

One of the suspected reasons we have so many tech billionaires saying we need to slow down AI is that it's generating no income.  Expenses are going through the roof, but there are apparently very few buyers for the services it provides.  This is not good for Orangie's son, Donny Jr.  He is heavily invested in an AI company, which is the main reason Orangie's shrieking that we need to go full speed with AI.    As is always the case with Orangie, it's always about the greed.

Not the Case

We have 69 (F) outside.  There is a bit of a cool weather front moving though the area, so  temps will only  climb few degrees today.  Yesterday, they got warmer than the forecasters had been predicting.  The outside temp was 86 (F) when I left the store at 6 PM.  How long will this cooling trend last?  A few days. Temps are supposed to warm up again on Thursday, but then most of next week is going to be rainy.

And I did work yesterday, and it was boring.  The sale that was supposed to come in, didn't.  I discovered a $40 charge against my sales goal without any backup.  I suspect things are going to get worse.

As I'd said in an earlier blog, I'd put some thought in to monetizing Riding On, well, that ain't happening.  They have too many problems with the blog, one being, as they say, consistency.  I'm too much of a generalist.  There were other reasons, like possible bestiality....  I suppose that means I post too many pictures of Howie in compromising positions.  And here I thought all they'd be looking at is the number of hits my blog gets daily.  That is not the case.  I suppose if I were more ambitious, but again, that's not the case.  Maybe if I were younger and didn't mind putting the time and effort into giving them what they want, but again....  

And for those who missed this, the Orange Anus actually took 3 planes to Ireland, this number does not include the 5 transport planes which carried his Secret Service and quite a few specialized vehicles because, like any other emperor, he needs a massive motorcade.


Why 3 planes?  He's afraid someone's going to try and shoot him out of the sky, and 3 planes means there are 3 separate targets.  This is him trying to be a sly old fox.  This is, of course, not the case.  No one is going to waste a single missile, let alone 3, to shoot him down.  Nope.  Those who would like him dead, are going to wait and watch the American people stomp the shit out of the Republican party.

And when he was in Dublin, quite a few people were talking about him walking around with a broken shoe.  Believe me, his shoe was not broken.  His problem is that his cankles were so huge, he couldn't put his foot into his shoe, and was walking around with the back of his foot on the heel of his shoe.  I don't mean to insult anybody, but that is so white trash.
