Bluntness

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

Wanna See My Sword

 Golly, it's a little chilly outside with temps in the mid 40s (F).  The forecasters are saying that over the next to days we might have a bit of a super mini heat wave with our daily highs climbing up into the low 70s (F).  However, there's also rain in the forecast.  After the upcoming warm spell, daily highs are predicted to be in the upper 50s (F).  It's almost time to pull out the wool blankets.

Yesterday was a rest day, not workout, not bike ride.  Today I have a bike ride, all I have to do is decide where in the world it's going to be.  One place I plan to avoid is South Korea.  Their rides are a lot like the rides in Kansas: boring.

I also worked yesterday.  I sold 2 quotes, neither of which was mine.  Flooring made plan in a big way, the store might have, but if it did, it didn't change the fact that it was underwater for the week.  Will it change?  I doubt it.  

So, Boots got some free publicity when someone from the Department of Defense called Entertainment Weekly to complain about the show, saying it was "woke garbage."  Petey Hegseth has evidently never heard of the Spartans, though for some weird reason it's rather easy for me to picture him running around a drunken frat party wearing only a teeny, tiny toga, and shouting "wanna see my sword!"

And the Toy of the Year award goes to the Pupsicle.  Howie simply loves it!  And I've figure out how I can throw it without it sounding like a brick is hitting the floor.


And tomorrow, all across the country, there are going to be No Kings rallies.  They are going to be huge.  So huge, in fact, that the GOP is pulling out all of the stops in the organ of hate.  They are putting every group they hate under that umbrella including Black Lives Matter, Pro Palestine, Pro Hamas, Marxist, Fascist, and that one group that doesn't exist, Antifa, together.  They realize that the numbers are going to be that high, that there are so many anti-Trumpers in this country they might actually run out of classifying categories.  Orangie's people are scared.  You see, they truly believed that all they had to do was say "shut up, we're in charge," and America would cowl before them.  Wrong.  They are rattled!  They're terrified that America is going to grab that rattle and shake the Hell out of it.

    And No Kings is gonna be big. Cankles and Co. are preemptively badmouthing it cause they fear it. And they’ll try to introduce some bad apples to create chaos. Just wait and see…

    XOXO

    1. It will be interesting to see how they deal with the numbers if they're as high as people are expecting them to be.

  2. I'll be in Philly for the No kings Protest!!!! Let him come gets us. Good luck getting everyone with the number we'll see.

    I still find it weird that people take issue with shows and movies. It's entertainment people.

    1. Have fun in Philly. And I suspect you'd take issue, too, if it were a Cultist show about hunting Drag Queens.

  4. Hello Dave,

    Although we have been absent from Blogland for far too long, we are amazed at the number of No Kings posts that are on the airwaves currently. It does seem that these protests will be everywhere. Good luck!
    Hopefully, NO Kings might catch on in the UK....wishful thinking.

    1. I understand that there are over 2500 rallies planned for today, with much information being disseminated on how to keep them peaceful. The numbers are going to be amazing.

  5. Hope no kings will show the fat orange one just how much the country disapproves of him and his gang. I hope it goes down safely. Gigi

    1. No matter how high the numbers are, they will refuse to believe them because that would mean they made a mistake.
