The Art of the Surrender

Okay, so our outside temp is purportedly 67 (F).  I haven't been outside yet, so I'll take that with a grain of salt.  We had some showers yesterday, and then a lot of wind.  For the foreseeable future, our daily highs are supposed to be in the low to mid 80s (F).  This is fine.  It keeps me from spending too much money on the A/C.

So, yesterday's workout was short and I'm blaming Howie.  When I was changing up the weight machine, he walked into the room and asked, "hey, wanna take a 5 minutes nap?"  And since I'm always up for a nap, I agreed.  Well, 5 minutes turned into an hour and 15 minutes.  That meant the workout had to be done in quick time in order for me to leave for work on time.  At least I was well rested when I pulled into the parking lot.

And work was meh.  I did have a $3000 sale go through.  And... as I should have expected, the customers who I sold that tile flooring installation to showed up with questions.  They only want to talk to me... shit.  Anyway, I had to explain that the glaze on their matte finished porcelain tile was not going to make the floor slippery.  There's also an issue with their sink and their toilet.  They want to replace their old toilet with the new toilet, that's not going to be a problem.  The bathroom sink is another issue.  Putting the tile floor under their vanity will raise the level of the sink, so a plumber will need correct the length of the drain.  It's an easy fix, but they will still have to pay for the plumber, our installers don't do that.

I understand that the Orange Anus is coming out with a new book.

I suppose someone finally got through to his dementiated brain as to what he really did when he signed that document in Versailles, because the "peace talks" between the US and Iran in Switerland have suddenly been canceled.  Of course, reality may not have set in and the talks might have been canceled because Israel is still bombing Lebanon, and ending the bombing is a provision.  That's right, Orangie signed a surrender agreement without getting the Israelis approval.  Let's be fair, no one should be surprised by this, as a demi-god he should be able to do whatever he wants. 

In fact, I understand he's been walking around telling people he's the most powerful man who's ever lived, comparing himself to Mao, and Stalin, and Hitler.  Well, this is how insanity works.

And finally, did  everybody get a chance to the pictures of Moscow burning yesterday?  I'm thinking that very shortly Orangie's blow bro Vlad is going to be staring straight into the eyes of a revolution.  Good for him!
