Comey's Numbers Game

 We're supposed to be under a fog warning.... No fog.  There is a possibility for thunderstorms this morning as well; more rain that we don't really need right now.  Weather forecasters are saying that this weekend should be nice, but I work.  They're also saying that next week is going to be a repeat of last week with a daily chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Things were slow in the home improvement retail world yesterday.  I did set up a measure for a carpet installation in a rental property.  The owner's putting in really cheap carpet.  The owner told me she's going cheap because the tenant that moving out did some serious carpet damage.  She didn't say what, but most of the time the damage is pet related; they have a cat that doesn't always go in the liter box.  Otherwise the day was slow.  I got in lots of steps.

I will have to try and get some lawn work in today.  The grass in the backyard needs to be wacked.  Hopefully, if there are any thunderstorms in the area, they will skirt my house.  

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is getting so many great reviews, I'm thinking it might get Game of the Year.  It was developed by Sandfall Interactive, with a small of team of between 20 and 30 people.  At present, I've completed 17% so I've much more to play.

My Itoh peonies are starting to bloom, and yes, they're yellow and peach in color.

Walmart is raising prices.  That shouldn't surprise anyone.  The Walton family needs more money, so does the Walmart corporation.  They need to keep Wall Street happy, so rather than take a tiny hit, and for them the hit would be rather small, they're going to pass those price increases onto the consumers.  There are a lot of Walmart shoppers in both Blue and Red states, so all will pay, but Red states tend to be poorer, so it will hit them harder.  What will cause Walmart to actually consider taking that hit?  Consumers curtailing their spending.  This will happen automatically as inflation kicks picks up speed.  Unfortunately for most shoppers, billionaires are unaffected by these price increases, so they will try and sit this out.  My advice to anyone who needs to make a purchase, by now while the savings are hot.

Has the Orange Anus completed his giveaway trip to the middle east?  What an asshole.  He's dealing with countries that sponsor anti-Christian terrorists.  While he, himself is in no way shape or form a Christian, there are many Americans and Europeans who are and his gifts are going to keep growing the hate.  Also keep in mind, those billion dollar deals Orangie loves bragging about very rarely come to fruition.

Finally James Comey did something with seashells that has the Cultists running around like their hair was on fire.  For those who missed it, he used 8647.  In slang, 86 means to get rid of because it's no longer necessary.  If we have a white subway tile that's no longer in stock and not coming back, we will 86 the sku number.  So, in a roundabout way, Comey might have possibly said we should 86 the 47th president, i.e. Orangie.  There are a lot of ways to 86 Orangie:  impeach him again; arrest him: make life so difficult for him he flies home to Mother Russia.  The cultists are, however, choosing a different meaning because they are extremists.  Personally, I'd rather have that asshole sitting in a jail cell.
