Bluntness

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

Not the time for lobbing hand grenades

 About those French Fries I cooked in the air fryer?  They were... okay.  The recipe called for 2 russet potatoes, well potatoes come in all sizes, so I there may have been too many fries in the fryer, and you're supposed to give them a shake halfway through cooking, and, well, I was feeding the dogs when the fryer beeped, so they may not have gotten the shaking they deserved.  I have a deep fryer, so maybe I'll just stick with that for the fries.

  Winter weather's moving eastward again, not for us here in Central PA.  We're going to get sleety ice instead of snow.  After that, if the two week forecast is even remotely correct, temperatures are going to be rising.  That'll be nice.  Right now, we have rain, which is doing a very good job of melting the ice still covering much of the yard.  Ice is bad for dogs, they don't know how to walk on it.

Even though yesterday was really a busy day, a load or two of laundry, Biggie was still tired last evening.  This is because all around me people were getting deliveries from UPS, and Fed Ex, and both Biggie and Lily love delivery drivers.  Every time a truck pulls up out front, they need to go outside and say hello.  Anyway, he was exhausted and decided to hit the futon early.


I saw this interesting article in CNN regard the January 6 Committee regarding the really big mistake the Republicans made.  Initially, the Cracker Jack Crazies thought they could create a big enough disruption by adding Jordan and Johnson to delegitimize the process.  Nope.  The committee wanted nothing to do with those liars.  The 2 Republicans on the committee chose not to bow down to Trump and lick is ass and so a majority of the party told them to screw off.  Now they have no one on the committee and Cheney and Kitzinger aren't telling them shit.  Ouch!  And a day doesn't go by when someone who knows what happened on January 6 isn't sitting there talking to them.   And by talking, I mean providing information; they realize the Republican party is the worst type of fair weather friend.

Releasing the dirt now would be damaging, but Americans have a short term memory problem.  Mid-terms aren't until November, and who knows what will happen between now and then.  Be patient.  Bannon's trial is set for late July, perfect timing for the mid-term elections.  People want Trump indicted now... too early to effect the mid-terms.  Indictments for his spawn might start dropping in July or August, or September.  Those are the months in which the hand grenades will have their most damaging effect. Now is not the time for lobbing hand grenades.

Subtitle This

 So, I received my 2nd shingles vaccination yesterday.  My shoulder was a little stiff.  I also pulled the blankets tight around me while sleeping because I was cold.  And this morning?  I'm a bit tired, feeling like I should lay down and take a nap.  I may do that after this gets posted.

I use my Garmin Fenix Pro 6 to track my sleep.  This morning it said I had a fairly decent night's sleep.  It evidently missed the part at 0105 when the dogs needed to go potty.  We had a slow drizzle as I opened the door to let them out, but no sooner were they halfway across the veranda when the heavens opened.  Hell.  In 2 seconds it went from a light drizzle to a heavy downpour.  They were not happy.  While they love the drying off process, they detest getting rained on.  And I had to dry them thoroughly, the last thing I wanted was we dog on the bed.

There's a movie in store for tonight, however we're going to a different theater.  For some reason, AMC has started showing some of their movies with English subtitles.  Now, I don't mind subtitles when I'm watching a foreign film, but they are totally unnecessary when I speak the language.  AMC is doing this because of the tens of millions of deaf people who don't go to the movies because they can't hear well enough.  Translation: they're trying to get more ticket buyers in their seats.  What it will do is send people to the theaters where the open caption films aren't playing.  Tell me, how many people want to be distracted by subtitles during the latest Spiderman movie.  If you're not hearing impaired, do you really want to sit through this?


I follow Adam Kitzinger on Twitter, mostly because he understands that most conservatives are dumbasses, but also, now and then Adam is bit of a smartass, which is fine with me.  Take yesterday when he corrected an angry Trumper by telling him "It's Rino, not Rhino, there's no H."
