Spud is currently flying somewhere over Columbia, MO. We have decided on an open post but one that at least poses a question in an attempt to create conversation.
The movie Wayne’s World featured:
- a grown man living in his parent’s basement
- an ex-girlfriend that gave a gift implying consent to purchase multiple firearms
- an Asian girlfriend, specifically from Hong Kong
- a tragically underrated performance by Ed O’Neil
- a cameo by Alice Cooper
Wayne made a living by creating a show on public access cable channels—effectively making him a YouTuber in his time. He had no student, auto, or mortgage debts and ultimately got his show on network TV.
Question #1: is Wayne’s World subliminally BASED?
Question #2: which one of you assholes is Wayne Campbell?
no Stairway
Denied!

People; this is a paraphrased quote from Alice Cooper in WW. I’m saddened by the number of people who apparently haven’t seen it.
I didn’t want to say that I found every clip of it annoying, so I doubt I’d be able to stand the whole film.
Hold on…I need to find my shocked face.
(0.0) (-.-)
I got it. I am upset to find it isn’t on Netflix nor Prime. Haven’t seen it in a bit and was in the mood to slip back in.
I love that flick. It’s perfect at what it’s trying to be. It knows it and pulls it off hilariously. Alice Cooper’s lines are in real-life character and scene stealing.

I think I’ve seen both on HBO recently.
Jesus H. Koresh….I just made an order from Pizza Hut (shut up- it has it’s place) for pizza, wings, and a 2L of Pepsi.
It was damn near $50.
How many wings, what size, with how many toppings?
The meat lover’s pizza, stuffed crust. 2 8-piece orders of wings (bone in)
The $8 delivery fee didnt help, but Ive had enough to drink to not drive for carryout.
Then again, drinking excessively is what makes Pizza Hut seem like a good idea. Works for White Castle, too.
Costco Pizza @ $8 is serviceable.
Aldi has sugar at $3 for a 4lb bag. It is scary how expensive it is.
Yep. It’s ridiculously expensive. We can get 3 meals’ (each) worth of takeout from Cheddars for that.
But then you have to eat Cheddars.
I like Cheddars, butI am the first to say I have the palate sophistication of a toddler weaned on chicken nuggets and Goldfish.
I’ve been to a few, and they’re not bad.
Does it really have it is place?
The two nearest locations closed ages back. I’d rather buy a cheap supermarket pizza, heat it up, and save a ton of money.
Oh, yeah, that reminds me, I hate their pizza.
If you’re going to spew, spew into this.
/hand UCS a DIxie Cup
I just paid nearly $40 for a large pepperoni and 8 ct wings from Papa Johns.
Wings are out of control. Last time my daughter wanted me to make wings, they were more expensive than cheap steaks.
Earlier this week, I bought chicken wings and thighs from the local butcher.
The wings were three times the price per pound than the thighs. (Something like $5.99 versus $1.99)
I loved their personal pan pizzas for work lunch back in the day.

What are we discussing?
Speaking of dinner, I need to motivate myself to go out there and make and cook a hamburger. I wonder if I’m up to it.
I already had dinner.
I would maintain this is not as brutalist as they say it is. I FLUV this house.
Outside view – It looks unfinished. Like they poured a foundation and a few structural walls, but haven’t started on the house.
But we have very different architecutral tastes.
It is known.
I have very eclectic taste, so I’m sure we could find something to agree on. What I like/love and what I’d live in, given the chance, are two entirely different things. For instance, I would love to live in this.
Looks like my mom’s house in Louisiana.
It’s from Southern Living, so … yeah.
Let’s not do Brutailist. It substitutes imagination for despair.
I get the “damn nature” vibe. I just question the ugliness.
A palladian manor house with manicured gardens also send the same message to nature.
Palladian. Had to look it up.
Still don’t know what it was.
Ugly, is ugly.
Forgive me, for saying this. Just don’t understand.
I don’t understand this lack of understanding. They are beautiful stately homes.
If you say so.
I’m a dumb redneck.
I’ll defer to you.
I build my own house with no plans so I can’t complain
Some would say “Well, it looks like it”
Thats like some cottage a writer would live in.
Huh. Weird.
Offers a FLW example and drops mic. It’s even better inside. The thing was nearly falling down when I visited in the early 90s but seems to have gotten some lovin’ since.
Excellent.
Cue UCS, or Hype’, or whomever to come along and say FLW sucked because his roofs leaked.
He had ugly houses that fell apart.
Close enough.
I have nothing but respect for FLW.
Sorry, Hype. Couldn’t remember if it was you or UCS. UCS outed himself right quick.
I like it.
😃
when DEG was here I took him on an hour’s loop of the residential side of Memphis: double canopy forest punctuated with century-old grandness
this beast is my favorite house in town, 1930s, 6000SF on 4 acres
Now there’s a handsome home.
Needs a leafblower, but that’s not a big deal.
I’m not necessarily a tudor fan, but I LOOOOOOOOVE diamond-mullioned windows.
tudor
yup: I generally hate them, but that one is set just right
there are hundreds of cool digs ’round here; NewWife is partial to the craftsman bungalows on North Parkway
I took him by the woodsy cottage on Tuckahoe that Tom Cruise’s character buys in The Firm; no big deal
he went to Graceland; I’ve never been but it’s obligatory I guess, the Great American Trainwreck; Charlie Rich’s house was ugly beyond description complete with wrought iron (a local specialty) fence with huge gaudy sheetmetal quarter notes on it
the Great American Trainwreck
It was delightfully tacky.
Elvis was a hillbilly who got money.
He also had a nice car collection. And he liked go-carts.
The grounds out back of the mansion are nice.
Everybody should tour Graceland. Everybody.
I grokked religion during that visit.
Took Shpip on a tour of the chichi zip codes when he was visiting KC.
I took him to downtown Podunkville early on a Monday morning. We beat the traffic rush by several days.
Wow. English manor is right up my alley.
I remember that house.
It is lovely.
It has brutalist touches for sure.
The video reminds me that architects and their hangers on can crank up the pretentiousness when they want to. (I can say that because I flunked out of it and know a bunch of them.)
Reminds me more of Spain than Mexico or Japanese. The cellblock interior is a nice touch.
Me too. I was surprised it was in Mexico.
Needs more embrasures.
I do like it though.
Anybody else watching Good Omens 2? The casting choices are… timely, let’s say.
Yeah. I noticed. Didn’t care for it like I did the first one. I finished it. Bad contrived plot twists.

Wayne’s World/True Lies era Tia Carrere is utter peak Sexiness.
Joining her on that summit is Julia Louis Dreyfus, as Elaine is my wife. (Have to add Monica Bellucci. Dammit. This is what happens when you live with your parents again. I feel like I’m in The Contest and it isn’t easy to sneak one off. Serenity, now. Sigh. This too, shall pass.)
Crazy Ex has legit gone further into the sex work trade in Manhattan. I’m legit concerned. She’s 11k in debt and this was just a side, funsy thing. She was fired from her international legal job she had.
Old friend and voyager to Korea and back now in Minnesota Girl and I have something interesting cooking. Goal undetermined. She seems more receptive to the idea of Us being a thing. It’s too complicated to type. I’ve dug the idea for a long time and tried back in the day. Hrmsicles all about…

Garth was cuter. 🤓
High school reunion today. Had to incorporate 3 years, ’54,’55,’56 to get a bigger crowd. 12 from my class, 6 ladies, 6 gents. The women were all widows, the men still had wives but only 1 attended, the only spouse and she has Alzheimer’s and couldn’t be left at home alone. Several canes, several with limps that didn’t have canes. Everyone got home in the daylight.
The good news was a 1/2 rack of ribs with ‘taters was only $11.95. My class got organized and got a group picture, the other classes had none. We’re going to do it again next year but looking around today there will be fewer in the picture.
It’s gonna be the same at HH, no glibs can leave until a picture has been taken. Mrs F will collect car keys and that can only be retrieved after the picture has been taken.
A key party?! That was Jimbo’s idea, wasn’t it?
Oh God. No. Just no.
Good for you,sir.

BROOKLYN, Mich. — Driver Noah Gragson has been suspended indefinitely by NASCAR and Legacy Motor Club due to liking an insensitive meme with a photo of George Floyd’s face.
Trying to appease people who don’t consume your product. Here’s hoping the lad’s struggle session will be brief and relatively painless.
May his lawsuit allow him to retire.
“Earlier that year, Cup series driver Kyle Larson used a racial slur while playing a video game.”
It was naggers. Had to be.
Thou shall not disparage the religious idols of the left.
Gragson’s great-grandfather was Oran K. Gragson, the longest-serving mayor in Las Vegas history, who helped curb corruption in the city and ended racial segregation in the casinos
What was linked or liked? Or do use plebes not to be trusted
sorry I didn’t reach out in LAS: I was busy or in the rack pretty much the entire time
redeye back was zero stars, but it had to happen
No worries I have been slammed anyway.
You can’t handle the meme!
Can see it on outkick . com. It’s in poor taste but not zomg nword. It’s also not that funny. Little mermaid crab dude w/ the sainted one’s likeness w/ under the knee quotes.
I knew where that was going before they got there, lol.
Y’all food folk are fancy. Food so far has been Kroger triscuits with olive tapenade and (decent) salami. Closest snack version of Schlotzky’s where I worked for 2.5 years and sorely miss. They go bye-bye. Sigh.
I’ll probably bake some breadsticks later and make a garlic butter dip. That dip is the best part of Papa John’s. At least growing up. I think they may have changed it…much like the absolute shit Little Caesar’s did with their fucking breadsticks. Even as a kid I knew the pizza was fucking terrible. Their breadsticks were perfect. Sigh.
So it goes.
Normally, I don’t eat too fancy. But tonight the lady that cuts the family’s hair is over so I made thin-sliced pork chops and basil/tomato/mozzarella sandwiches with home-aged fig balsamic. I’ll be back to peanut butter sandwiches tomorrow.
Based on your avatar, you should ask for your money back.
Yeah. She cuts the family’s hair. Not mine. Been here so long I married a human.
I’m a weird nibbler of an eater. Sit-down meals are an event for me. Sometimes a chore. I just can’t eat that fast. Rather, I don’t understand why anyone would want to. Even some foods, which are best hot, don’t need to be scarfed down. Enjoy the little flavors. The food’s still there to be eaten.
Pork rinds and rice cakes are my go twos. The former is a pretty good caloric appetizer. Rice cakes take care of my must-do-something mouth and fingers. (All jokes to go with that properly belong.)
Always must have something to nibble. My fingernails pay their fair share to not be abused.

I keep wanting to make tapenade, but my grocery store never seems to have tapens.
And life doesn’t give them to you?
I’m just going to have to watch WW again. I’m chuckling just thinking about it.
The soundtrack rocks. Sabbath with Dio singing ‘Time Machine’ is my fave, followed by’All night Thing’s by Temple of the Dog.
Opening scene was filmed in my town when they are in the Gremlin.
Right on.
Tia Carrere’s cover of Ballroom Blitz rocks, too. Not!
So you’re not a fan of her… … singing?
Correct
( . ) ( . )
She gained weight; sorry to break it to you.
I was always one of the weirdos that was never really very attracted to her. Something about her personality always rubbed me wrong.
The Ex was from Hawaii. Tia was so much nicer.
Look at her. Sing…talent. Who cares?
Weight gain is good. She cooks now.

Good thing they didn’t see the loop on the pull down rope on his garage door.
We must destroy the MAGA cult menace.
There was a time when the two major political parties in America could exhibit bipartisanship by moving across the aisle to compromise on the issues on which they were legislating. Tried and true Republicans who favored small government, lower taxes, and national security could find a middle ground with Democrats who pushed for things like universal healthcare, higher minimum wages, and progressive tax reform. The abortion issue in America has been an area of debate between the parties as they debated elements like when life begins, is a heartbeat a heartbeat, and what to do about post-birth abortions (which is murder and not actually a thing). There were largely two sides of the issue and some areas for compromise.
This is no longer possible in today’s sociopolitical climate. Although members of the GOP still refer to themselves as a political party with principled stances, the reality is they have now morphed into a domestic terror organization and to use the umbrella term, a cult – the largest and most dangerous cult in American history.
Cult thinking includes ardent adherence to group thinking such as – clinically speaking, in the face of distorted thinking we ask about one’s strength of conviction by querying, ”Can you think of other ways of seeing this?” Sadly, what we are seeing publicly is ‘No’ from those who still subscribe to Trumpism/MAGA.
Now do Obama.
But enough about the current president accepting multi-million-dollar bribes from China.
That whole list is next level disingenuous.
Hilarious…..
GOP folks with principles were able to find middle ground on universal healthcare? You mean the one that was conceived, written and passed without even telling a single republican what was in the bill? That one? The one that still took 2 years and hundreds of millions in pork promises to junior democrats to pass? That one?
Something, something… alternate facts… something…
is a heartbeat a heartbeat
What?
So he likes “bipartisanship” but also the entire opposition party should be in prison. Awesome.
https://mises.org/power-market/united-states-vs-donald-j-trump
I’m gonna say no?
I think you’re right.
Meaningful pushback just hasn’t happened.
I’m in agreement with the adage politics is downstream of culture, and I think a huge part of the culture is just broken. Or maybe cowed would be a better word.
It will change, sometime,of course. Who knows when.
One side is at war. The other side is still hoping that things can work out.
Votes…elections…good people stepping up to fight the good fight,
This is no longer possible in today’s sociopolitical climate. Although members of the GOP still refer to themselves as a political party with principled stances, the reality is they have now morphed into a domestic terror organization and to use the umbrella term, a cult – the largest and most dangerous cult in American history.
Pay no attention to the global warming doomsday cult hiding behind the skirts of the Democratic Party.
And the burgeoning
LGBTQ+ cultWhat can be done?
There are exit strategies for people ensnared in a cult. One factor is accountability or repeatedly seeing the adverse consequences of the group’s behavior (e.g., indictment, incarceration, job loss) which we started to see even more of this week.
But until one party and its ardent followers can admit they are in a domestic terrorist cult and as Rep. Eric Swalwell said are “unserious” people, there is no hope of unification on the horizon. The first step is getting through to people who can’t or won’t see the truth.
We should just kill them all. They’re not even human, really.
Yeah, when I see Swalwell, I think, “There’s a serious person.”
Seriously stupid anyway.
The party calling its opponents a cult is the serious party. Sure.

+1 national socialism
https://arnoldkling.substack.com/p/bumper-bowling-into-adulthood
I find this argument that the coddling of Teh Yutes is leading to totalitarianism and socialism rather fascinating. Do any glibs agree or disagree?
Also does this mean that decadence is real and a free society is not sustainable? This coddling of the youths is certainly exacerbated by wealth and technology.
And it is interesting to see a libertarian admit that there is a bad social change occurring. This tendency to think that Bad Things Can Never Happen in Current Year has been a serious problem dating back to John Lilburne in the English Civil War if not earlier.
Not to mention that the classical liberals, with a few exceptions, supported the public school system since they assumed that public school teachers and university professors would always agree with them. Glad that scenario played out!
“a free society is not sustainable?”
I’ve been arguing this for years. Free society = anarchism, which IMHO is just as utopian as Marxist Communism (I understand some Glibs disagree but this is where I stand). Therefore, human groups always have some kind of hierarchical structure, aka: government. The right amount of government is like the right amount of cancer. Ergo: no matter what it eventually grows out of control and kills the host.
Then again, as Tyler Durden says, on a long enough timeline everyone’s survival approaches zero. Meaning: nothing is sustainable.
Somebody’s gonna get shot.
Wonder how Straff is.
He’s twitting away. But not here.
Drunk?
I vaguely remember that conversation but still, who cares what point MikeS made, I am sure mine was better.
I think self regulating society’s would self regulate and I am 100% in favor of not allowing just any hoarding swinging dick in your non hoarder society. I am borderline hoarder so my society would have to be in the borderline realm.
My point was that in a self regulating society, someone is getting shot. Either the hoarder or the annoyed neighbor…whoever is quicker on the draw.
You point was probably just to yell about dumb people or something,
Shot? No, someone will sneak out in the night and light the hoard of trash on fire.
It will likely come to blows before that.
My neighbor chucked his trash* into my yard and I saw it. I went to confront him and I was already mad. But then he LIED to me. Dude, I was sitting RIGHT THERE and SAW you! He still denied it, like I’m stupid. My head was blowing off, but I have a hair trigger, so I don’t really know what was really reasonable.
*The garbage bags had broken open upon collection and the garbage men didn’t pick ot up, so he was deciding what came out of my bags and what came out of his. But none of it was on my property and no e of it was from my bags.
There are people who won’t want to risk the face to face.
No, your point was that I, in asking the hoarder neighbor to scale it back or calling codes, am imposing my will on my neighbor, and that’s where you stopped.
*I* said somebody’s gonna get shot.
Well, I agreed about the shooting part.
The important point here is that ‘Sloper probably didn’t add anything of value to the conversation. Unless he agreed with us, then, good on him.
Not shot. But they sure would have got their ass beat.
Down here, anyway.
Depending on individual situations it’d range anywhere from sternly worded letters to arson and murder. That’s how humans operate.
Mike”Hobbes”S: Nasty, brutish, and shot
Finally read that wall-o-text about Obama from the MLK biographer. From what I can gather, both he and the interviewer were too cocktail-party adjacent and chicken shit to say what they really wanted to say so they danced around it. Namely, that MLK was immoral in his private life but a beacon of truth and morality in his public life whereas Obama is tightly controlled and highly moral in his private life but a fucking amoral power-hungry disaster in his public life.
Also: I saw WW probably at least 10 times in the dollar theater (when such a thing still existed).

We met some friends for dinner at a Brazi!Ian steakhouse.
*holds tummy*
I ate too much. OMG…the meats…
I LOVE Brazilian steakhouses!!!!!
My first time. ☺

I’m a Brazilian virgin. There’s a Fogo de Chao nearby. Maybe I’ll get lunch togo next week.
It’s a fun thing. Skip lunch if you go.
Absolutely. Both legs must be hollow.
Lunch from there. I’m not on an unlimited expense account.
Weak.
I am disappointed in myself for my lack of attention and actions on social media.
I understand the severity of this situation.
I love and appreciate everyone.
I try to treat everyone equally no matter who they are. I messed up plain and simple.
The only thing severe is your severe lack of testicular fortitude.
The meme is pretty mild.
Basically true
NASCAR blew even back when they were good. Enjoy BudLighting yourselves suckas.
He should be fired for being so fucking stupid. You are a public figure, you know the third rail of politics and you don’t touch it. Period.
Hmm…
He should not be fired or disciplined for such a thing. There should not be a third rail of politics.
Given the nightmare fascist society we live in, he should have known better. Stay off public social media.
Yes, I’m just describing reality.
NASCAR is, like many institutions, run by people who are fundamentally different from their fans. Different social class, obviously. Different background. They have nothing in common with the average watcher at the top.
They are so worried about being skewered by ESPN and having a sponsor threaten to dump them that they forget their primary concern should be with what their actual fucking viewers care about. Sponsors will come back if they ever even left, which they almost certainly wouldn’t have over this. As long as their are eyeballs on your product, you will have money flowing in. Piss off the viewer, and you have nothing.
Speaking of differing social classes, Star Trek ‘The Cloud Minders’ is on. Liberal, artsy society looking down on the working class led by ‘rabble.’
I can’t be anything but First.
Sure you can. You just gotta put your mind to it.
Just got back from a mini music festival in quaint little Metamora, IN. Fun, and saw some good friends, but the drive back from Metamora ’til you get to Richmond and the interstate is laid out like a slalom course and is a bit nerve-wracking at night. 😳

Not the only band to be influence by that movie.
Thanks, rhy’. I liked that. Reminded me of these guys.
Also, learned in the comments that the movie inspired at least one other band.
It’s a great movie.
👍🏻
Huge favorite of mine. One of the best of the nineties.
From the discussion above about chicken parts:
Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are the bargain cut. Often available for about 2 bucks a pound these days, they are wonderful if marinaded overnight in a light teriyaki marinade and grilled. They also reheat well.
My 13 year old likes to make bite sized cubes and toss them in corn starch for frying to make chinese/thai dishes. Spicy basil chicken is a current favorite, but general tso’s is also a big hit.
I got mine skin-on, so more flavor.
Also, I appologise for the number of typos in Scintilla Vitae. It was not thoroughly proofread.
Just watched “They Cloned Tyrone”
A sci-fi horror comedy starring Jamie Fox and the guy from the new star wars movies.
It was interesting to me – because I found it well made, well written and I really liked the allegory. And I completely disagree with the politics.
A rare combo.
Like the old Spike Lee movies about race, it correctly diagnoses key issues… and then picks the wrong answer. In this case, the message seems to be not only that whitey is keeping “us” down, but that black elites are collaborating in the effort and that (most damningly) assimilation into american society is a bad thing and should be stopped at all costs.
So, like the Spike Lee movies, I respect the game, but hate the player. “Yay racism” isn’t ever going to get my vote, even if it is on my side.
Kinda how I felt about “Do the Right Thing”.
This is true, just not in the way the creators of that movie think. The elite blacks are mostly focused on keeping the rest on the blue plantation.
You know, I’d find this a more honest answer. Black people should stop looking to white people to save them. Stop looking for white people for jobs, opportunities, and handouts. Take care of your own.
Same shit I said about people when the issue of asylums came up around here. Focus on your own communities and the things causing the social decay. But I suspect that doing so would require blacks to have to look inward and that’s really tough to do. It’s far easier to blame white people for all your problems than to look at how fucked up and frankly pathetic your own “culture” is.
I have a tee shirt with me airbrushed in as Wayne and I was known as “Party on IRL name” at an employer. If you ask most co-workers, they’ll tell you I’m the real Wayne Campbell or certainly an enthusiastic understudy.
OK. Excellent!

Reason gives a pro censorship interview to the other guy from Bill and Ted with ZERO pushback:
https://youtu.be/smt6jV8jkfY
Not most excellent you medieval dickweeds. Honestly, my expectations are low but what the hell Reason?
They found a unicorn! Not someone who claims they were alt-right and deradicalized, but someone who was actually converted by one of their bullshit fact checking counter sites.
I have no inclination to watch a Reason interview, let alone one that talks about such nonsense.
“but someone who was actually converted by one of their bullshit fact checking counter sites.”
Yep, IOW a moron and a pliable one at that.
Mr. Beast giving away $1 million to jump off a bridge = benign.
Steven Crowder calling for civil war after the FBI raided Mar-A-Lago is batshit (even though that never actually happened, and neither idiot sitting there called him on it).
He’s calling for advertisers to discriminate based on content rather than simply getting eyeballs on their ads and Youtube to suppress content that keeps people less engaged on their platforms.
Reason will sit there and pretend this isn’t explicitly political. But it’s very obvious what he would consider fact based and benign/middle of the road.
The video is getting raioted. I imagine that happens a lot to Reason’s content these days, but I suspect they don’t really give a damn what the majority of their readers think because they have a couple of sugar daddy’s funding them and it’s all about getting their message out. Fuck the readers and actual libertarians whose name their smearing.
For those who don’t have the extension, the video has something like 600-700 dislikes to <200 likes.
I wondered what happen to the dislike counter. It takes an extension to see it?
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/return-youtube-dislike/gebbhagfogifgggkldgodflihgfeippi
It was removed as big corporations like Disney put pressure on Google when shit was getting ratioed to hell. It was done in the lead-up to Captain Marvel. It wasn’t like it was just that, but it was part of it.
The extension gives you an algorithmic estimate of dislikes for a video.
👍🏻
My timelines were screwed up. More to do with Star Wars getting dislike-bombed.
And Youtube went so far as to remove the dislike button for The Little Mermaid it was getting so bad. That was a troll campaign, supposedly. No one can say who or where it was organized. Then the movie actually did bomb.
Gillespie should get put in the iron maiden.
Media has been trying to claim that Sound Of Freedom had one of it’s “financiers” or funders arrested for child kidnapping charge. This shit is recommended to you as soon as you start to type in Sound Of Freedom. Snopes is rating the story as “true.”
Of course, when they talk about him being a funder, they mean he donated to a crowd source campaign along with like 7000 other people.
And the child kidnapping charge is a custody dispute.
When I see ‘Snopes’ I cant help myself but snort, every time.
It is remarkable to me how soft the clay of the vast majority of feet is. Those that are desperate to be told what to do and the cynical, evil people happy to step up and do it.
Wolves and sheep. Jeebus.
What time is it? 3:45? Good. I am simmering some refried black beans now. Black beans, bacon bits, finely chopped sweet onion, cayenne, garlic, salt and a touch of black pepper. I will keep them on a low boil until it the broth is reduced to half, then mash it up with a potato masher. This will be spread on a lightly crisped corn tortilla.
Atop the beans will be eggs scrambled with chorizo and finely chopped onion, bell pepper and a pinch of jalapeño then a sprinkle of grated sharp cheddar melted on it. Then the salsa and a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle of fresh green onion. We will wash that down with some strong coffee. Yum.
Makeup breakfast for Mrs. Suthenboy. She was mad at me yesterday and I have no clue why. It doesn’t matter really.

TOS was mentioned upthread. I made the mistake of looking at it. I read the first bit of Greenhut’s article on poverty in California.
We can fix poverty if only government would…..blah blah blah. Government fucks up everything. Not a word about culture and how culture crates poverty with a big helping hand from government. I got the notion that it Is just another way of saying ‘We had the wrong people in charge.’
I forgot how bad TOS can be. A bunch of closeted and tepid pinkos.
A kid who was raised right. TW, FB
Funny, even if fake
Good morning, Shirley (and Suthen if you’re still around and somewhere upthread NA)!
Yup! Smart kid!
Wow, quiet morning.
Good morning, ‘bodru!
I’m at Tranq Base, which is bit…close…this morning, even at just 75 alleged degrees, with my iced mocha latte and Vox Choral on the satellite radio. How are you & yours?
Morning y’all!
