Now that I’m finished with my holiday time off for the Winter, everything seems kind of…”meh”. The incessant droning from the media about OrangeManBad, diseases, and people who I’ve never met up and dying, it’s a wonder I get out of bed sometimes. Well, on to the Shift-posting; let’s see if there’s anything worth laughing over:
News you can use? There’s a bit of “Hmmm…”, and a lot of “Nope!” in there. But, I posted mainly because I like the British/Commonwealth pronunciation (you know what I mean).
So that’s how they afford living there! This one is because of the picture.
The NAP notwithstanding, I’m starting to view the people sporting his merch the same way I view people wearing balaclavas in the Summer—as a very real threat to my life.
Apparently, obtaining customers is now bad for business. Is this why many of the restaurants on DoorDash in my area don’t have customization? I do think Jazz (::snickers::) is missing a point or two here. That said, should restaurants really be closing off these customer avenues?
Twelve minutes of an awesome kitteh. For those of you so inclined.
Minute and a half of an awesome human. Question: Do I go after him for possible infringement? Nah—I’ll leave him to his work.
Something about this reminds me of The Band…
Question(s) for our resident attorneys: Are you aware of any attorneys who, as a part of their practice, sue the families of criminals who sue when their precious waste-of-space gets killed in self-defense? Is that even a ‘thing’? Do most defendants in these situations just accept the attorneys fees judgment (if that’s available to them) when the families, hopefully-lose the suit? Is it common to just file a counter-suit against the plaintiff families in those situations? If you have a story that fits this scenario, I’d love to hear it.
I was thinking I would forego music this week. However, I realized I just had to dedicate a song to Festus. I couldn’t rightly go with the original, as I don’t want to hear Olive Oyl sing. You lot can supply any/all other music.
Alright; this oughta be enough to wrap up the week. Spread the word about the Night Shift, get rested before-hand, and, let’s Make Late Night Great Again! Huh…this sloganeering-acronyming is more difficult than I thought. Oh, well—get cracking on the comments, y’all.
Fine. Here’s a comment. ;P
And, a fine comment it is. Much like that patio.
Whew… What’d I miss? Sorta shit-faced.
What’d you miss? a whole lotta nuthin’.
Third!
The cat was cute. We had a three-legged cat. Wife worked as a vet tech and a customer brought in a cat with a crushed rear leg. Doc amputated the leg and sewed it real nice. Customer changed his mind – didnt want the his daughter to see a deformed cat. Wife brought it home. “Tripod” was a real sweet heart. The missing rear leg didn’t slow her down much. She was our third cat and they all slept with our son who used the top of a bunk be. She couldn’t make the jump and yowled to be lifted up. That and trying to scratch her ear with the missing leg were the only shortcomings.

Pritteh kitteh!
Awww.
My mom had a tripod kitty. Cute tabby but whiny and fat. It was missing a front leg which seems more difficult than missing a back one.
‘The food still winds up at the same destination and the restaurant is paid the same amount of money.’
And this is why ticket scalping laws are bullshit.
“Hey Kid, if you want in you need to pay for the sin!”
My buddy doesnt use doordash or Grubhub for his restaurant.
I asked him about it a couple times –
1. His sammiches (while amazing) don’t travel great (most of his takeout orders are for wings)
2. They take a hefty % for the convenience – and he doesn’t consider it worth the extra coverage when he has such great customer outreach already via facebook, his car shows, etc.
He did say that sometimes folks just show up to pick up orders because dd or gh listed his restaurant temporarily without asking/telling him – which is pretty dumb – but in those cases he doesn’t turn over the food unless they pay him.
You missed the premiere of the cartoon last night Diggy. For shame.
Last I saw, you didn’t yet have the post date. That’s a mighty short turn-around time!
In any event, my apologies. I wouldn’t have been any good, considering how long I was up yesterday.
Yeah, if SF hadn’t had a Suburu Horror Theater locked and loaded they might have run it wednesday, they treat me good in that respect, fitting the cartoons as soon as possible. Of course, I’m still looking forward to that day when they see fit to bestow me with full PTB status and let me schedule my own posts. Spud jumped the line when he joined. *spits on the ground*
Spud has teh connections. And no, I don’t have full access. TPTB jealously guard their powers.
Heheh…just like Mama pajama.
Again, sorry I missed the post. 10 hours+ of sleep were a-callin’.
Nah, it’s just I felt like staying up later and no one came around (Chafed showed up after I tapped out)
You rang?
Damn, son–though you’d never get here!
Now, it’s a

Did you see my (very late) comment?
I did indeed. Decided to punish you for rooting against my beloved Packers. It’ll get fixed, with having some contract work this week, getting a new job and trying to get the cartoon done I overlooked it. Apologia.
Just busting your balls a bit. Keep up the good work, I really liked the last one. Bolton’s Mustache was a twist I didn’t see coming.

We have more than it seems because we all pop in and out at different times of the day. Toxteth O’Grady is a unicorn also.
Funny that the einhorns around here are actually neinhorns IYKWIM…
Libertarian women exist; libertarian lesbians and mothers seem to be the real unicorns. In the latter category I can think of only Mojeaux and Lenore Skenazy.

‘STANG!! How ya doin’?
Doing great, just working and enjoying life.
I love cats. I’ve always had a cat. My last cat was my best little friend. He always met me at the door and stayed near me at all times. He was always down to sit in my lap and get pets. He got sick and rapidly deteriorated late last year. He tried so hard not to show it and when I made the decision to put him down I wailed more than I thought I could. We recently came home with a new little kitten, a ragdoll breed. She’s beautiful and a ton of fun so it’s nice to have that back. I don’t mind being a crazy cat person.
Sorry to hear about your last cat, and hope the new kitten keeps the family happy.
Yes; this, too, Mustang.
Aaahhh! That’s what that is! My best friend has a cat like that, who is just visually stunning for a cat, and quite chill and sweet. Very easy -going.
I’m not a cat-person, per se, but I think they can be awesome.
People are seriously stunned when they see her and she loves to greet them. Great pets.
My big bro has a rag doll, a rescue one!! Majestic and lovely, with blue eyes. And he’s a total goofball.
His name is Neville.
Majestic and lovely
Such an odd breed name, but, this is accurate.
I’ve had maine coons for the past 25+ years, but am considering a ragdoll. And you don’t become a crazy cat person until you have more than 2x cats than you have people in the house.
Man, I’m so sorry about your cat, but I’m glad you got another. I can’t stand for the house to have no kitty soul in it.
I can’t believe smokers were ousted from public life for the smell, but cat owners seem to be growing.
I’m going to be looking for a new cat, soon. We had three, all over the age of eighteen. As of Friday morning, we now have one. I keep thinking on the positive side – once the last senior has shuffled off this mortal coil, we can replace the carpets, we’ll train the next one to travel, etc, but it still kinda sucks. The worst part of having pets.
Sorry, LG…I hope they went ‘well’, as it were, and that you ‘n’ yours are doing OK.
Thanks. The fact that they were so damn old helped a lot. They all died of straight up old age, with the opportunity to just eat and sleep and chill out until they were done.
That is an awesome life for anyone.
Dang, that hurts, but it’s nice to know they had long lives.
My suggestion is to get 2, preferably litter mates, but definitely ones who already know each other.
We had a pair of litter mates my husband and I picked out ourselves before we were even married. We ended up rescuing litter mates from my youngest sister after a disastrous marriage. Both pairs were right around the same age, and they all lived past the average cat lifespan, so yeah, I think then next round will be a pair as well. I just have to convince my husband of the rightness of my plan.
My older boys are peeing a lot lately and I know what that eventually means. My avatar is the biggest peeper and he’s the younger of the two. God help me I’m going to break a little when he goes away.
Merry Christmas, 2020
-The Festus Family
Oh that sucks.
Our old girl (14) couldn’t catch a decent breath and couldn’t get up on the bed anymore. She’d pretty much stopped eating and drinking. I think she had congestive heart failure, so we sent her over the Rainbow Bridge. I made the decision because Mr. Mojeaux was her human. He wanted to keep her around, but I couldn’t bear to hear her suffer and watch her turn away her favorite foods.
Oh….OH!
I was making the joke of peeing teenagers mentioned in a yearly Christmas card. Didn’t know it meant….well, that for the cats.
Oh, yeah. Their kidneys start failing and they can’t make it to the litter box or they just dribble everywhere.
Humor is hard online. That’s my boy and he’ll die just like every creature does. Just not now, not right fucking now.
Right now.
Ow 🙁
My pair are around 15 and a little frailer but otherwise healthy. Really not looking forward to what’s coming.
My sympathies on the fur babies.
We know when we get a pet that it’s very likely to die before we do*, but it’s still worth it to us, and particularly for them.
*unless the pet is a parrot or Galapagos tortoise.
“or”??
You gave me a shout-out and a red-head. I’m needing a to pick a posey for you… Damn.
I didn’t finish the posts and now I feel a right cunte…
We all need a.
You’re a good egg, Diggy! I’d like to meet you sometime and play a round or shoot a game. Serious-like.

Ditto, Festus. Although, I have no idea which “round” is up for grabs, and I don’t really hunt….
Nowhere in his post did I read anything about you doing the hunting.

https://www.pureandnaturalspices.com/
For spice needs, although I can’t guarantee too many exotic/hard-to-find spices. Hayeks, if memory serves, you apparently use a lot of Indian spices…? Can’t say I’ve seen that much in the way of Ifdian spices/blends (that I can recall).
Anyway, I do recommend them as a possible source, especially if you need low/no sodium seasonings. They also do sales fairly frequently.
Twice the love!

G’night, Mike!
Ehem.
Greatest sideline pic ever, but I grew up worshiping Derrick Thomas. In his prime, he could singlehandliy terrorize an entire offense on almost every snap.
Yeah, so I was writing book #whatever during the Derrick Thomas years and I gave him a shout-out. If I rehab that book and publish it, it will DEFINITELY keep that Thomas shout-out.
Somebody gave my husband a Thomas jersey years ago and he was like, “Okay, whatever.” I was like, WTF THAT IS DERRICK THOMAS THERE IS NO OKAYWHATEVER!!!
Derrick Thomas is sadly unremembered by most general NFL fans. Great player and by all accounts a great guy. That was during my ‘heyday’ of NFL fanship, when I knew all the great players from every team.
He is remembered and beloved ’round these here parts.
I have no idea who he is. Then again, not even a casual fan.
(outside?) Linebacker for the Chiefs during Marty Ball. Always competitors, but never able to win the big game, same as Marty Ball anywhere. Sad thing is, everywhere along that path the higher ups thought Marty was the problem, and if they just got rid of him they could finally win a championship, but instead damned their franchise to at least a decade of obscurity.
Ummm…..
/Do I need to say it?
apparently you do.
Have no idea who Marty Ball is.
Their coach at the time was Marty Schottenheimer. For 30 years he took teams to threshold of winning the Super Bowl, but always failed to make it. They all fired him and spent decades without even having a winning season, until I thinks San Diego, I think they only had a half a decade of not getting to playoffs, but still haven’t won a Superbowl.
Well, I definitely know who Linus and Colm are. So, I have that going for me.
Most sacks in a single game.
Second most sacks in a single game.
Perfected the strip sack.
Admittedly not a great run defender, but an underrated coverage linebacker.
I used to kinda want to see the Chiefs offense get off the feild just so I could watch him play.
Now, Tyrann Mathieu is my favorite guy to watch on defense. The dude is freaking everywhere, blowing shit up. Really fun to watch.
It’s officially Superbowl Sunday, Mo!

To go immediately off-topic, I’m 62% through Dunham and I take back everything I said about honesty and being upfront with your partner. I’m still enjoying it greatly, though, and intend to grab the next in the series. At least the deception in your story has been thoroughly entertaining, although there were a few times where I found myself yelling, “idiot! Just tell them!”
LOL! Heh, I knew you’d recant.
You realize Celia’s just plain ol’ worn out and starving, right?
I had to catch myself before I hit POST to calculate about where you are in the story so I wouldn’t spoil something.
Glad you haven’t delivered any spoilers, I’ve been enjoying reading it. I’ll probably finish the rest tomorrow, and promise to be honest in my reaction, but really, I can’t imagine delivering a bad review unless you finish the book by slaughtering the main characters before they reach their final destination.
That is one thing I will NEVER do.
I’m a romance writer first and foremost. Happy-ever-afters are my stock in trade and I will not deviate from that.

“Nobel Laureate in Economics, F.A. Hayek said in 1974 about Hazlitt’s book: ‘It is a brilliant performance. It says precisely the things which need most saying and says them with rare courage and integrity. I know of no other modern book from which the intelligent layman can learn so much about the basic truths of economics in so short a time.'”

I’m currently reading “The Framers Coup” and it’s really interesting to get a non-ideological view of how the Constitution came to be and how it’s really a large grouping of compromises. While they were undoubtedly intelligent men, it’s really eye-opening to read the very human arguments that the Founders had. It’s been the most eye-opening reading about how the issue of slavery was dealt with. Highly recommend if you have any interest in the subject.
I’ll add that one to the list.
I’m going to make it a project to read the entire Constitution, related documents, and modern commentary on it. In other words, I want to actually become the Constitutional scholar that Obama pretended to be.
18 pages, not to difficult
It’s a good-sized tome but I like that the arguments are presented without any sort of pretense. You see the delegates as they really were…aristocrats, politicians, human beings…not what left or right wants to portray them as. It really puts the Constitution into a different, more accurate, light.
Have you checked out NR’s Constitutionally Speaking podcast? I confess I haven’t started it. 53 episodes so far.
Thanks, I’ll add that to my Stitcher playlist!
Sounds like a good recommendation. Tom Woods is always talking about the subversive nature of the Kentucky Resolutions and will add that to my list, too.
PSA: the wife has MRDO, which is worse than mrsa, not good,antibiotic resistant shit, and Vegas is full of Chinee, I’m in Moomsuit mode to see Wendy, kind of spooky,
Yeeesh! Sorry, Bob. I hope she’s in good hands.
I’ve known several people who got MRSA and lived long after. These things get over-hyped. The hook will catch the wire my friend.
I was told MRDO, is like, don’t even touch her bad, and honestly, I don’t need that, I don’t even want to be near Vegas, I’m not healthy enough for that shit..
If you don’t feel you’re healthy enough, and she is in a state she can have phone conversations, don’t risk it. But if that’s not the case, don’t let them scare you off from being something could encourage her to keep going. Regrets are the hardest thing to deal with.

Wow, already seems like a very un-PC bit. Amazing how much has changed in a few short years.
Sadly, as the calendar insists on reminding me, it’s over 20 years.
Oh please. 1996 was only like 3 years ago.
By my count time turned triple speed since 2014 when my dad died. Everything before then had a nice constant pace, since then it’s all yesterday.
For me that started around 2005.
That was a long time ago, scary eh?
I had a full head of Bright Red hair then, now it’s all see through……
Curly locks down to my mid back. Shirley Temple-like. Now I rock the shaven head.
No kidding. 20 years.
I keep forgetting to tell myself I’m old. Stuff from long ago seems like yesterday.
1996? I started being a kid again. Glibertarian without knowing the meaning. I had my mid-life crisis when I turned 30.
Ditto.
I was in a pissy maudlin mood today and was thinking, after paying a nickel for shitty paper bag with a handle that tore and got soaked in the rain, I’d trade today for twenty years ago. Have to give up retail pot, gay marriage, and you guys, but other than that, I’m not sure things haven’t slid backwards.
Glad someone else misses the late 20C as much as I do. I’d prefer freedom and privacy to convenience.
And get the Twin Towers back.
Was watching Moonstruck last night. Got a little dust in the eye seeing those standing there forever.
To be honest, I never gave a shit about the twin towers. That it was an attack on a purely civilian target by an enemy we were not actually actively at war with was what bothered me. And fuck those fuckers for using that as an excuse to declare war on that behalf against those that weren’t involved. I was for the war in Iraq, I’ll admit my folly. I also believe what I was told by those on who were there, that there were ‘WMD’s there, but they were passed into the hands of Iran. Just a cluster fuck.
Yep. When that happened all I wanted to do was bash and smash and bust and bash and crash and trash and burn. No trouble to be saying that trouble’s happening everyday.
I didn’t care about WTC before, and during/after. It’s just now they remind me of what use to be, before the twin goat screws, before the “Patriot” Act, and before thousands more of Americans dead including several I knew.
My grandpa was stationed at Pearl Harbor but left a few months before Dec 7 to go to a gunnery school or something. I wish I could ask him now about what it was like to go back after the war or later when it became a tourist destination and remember what it was before.
I gotta agree….
Remember shows like “Hogan’s Heroes”? We used to lampoon totalitarian societies with things like “Giff me your papers!!”, demonstrating the superiority of the US where you did not have to present identity papers in order to move from place to place inside the country.
Fast forward to post 9-11….
Not only do we put up with presenting ID all over the place, we tolerate being naked-scanned and having our giblets fondled at the airport. We even voluntarily carry tracking devices that follow us around 24/7 and are under the watchful eye of surveillance cameras most of the time.
I think if you teleported most people from the 70’s to today’s america they would learn of this stuff and punch you right in the face for being such a puss.
It’s weird that the 49ers are in the Super Bowl, but the Bay Area hasn’t been very nuts about it. Not like when the Giants were in the World Series, for example. Maybe it’s because they moved their stadium to the San Jose area.
I lack the link-fu but National Lampoon has you covered.
Hey Diggy! I actually listened to the entire tune and it’s a really solid soft jazz song. I must have heard it at least a hundred times growing up. How did you know? ::SF nib growing::
Uhhh….’cause I’m good like that.
Yeah, that’s about right.
I have yet to be somewhere in the past two weeks where someone asked me, “Hey, how about those Niners?”
I’m pulling for the Chiefs anyway. Probably will be the only one doing so at the SB party tomorrow though.
That should keep it interesting.
Well, today my wife convinced the guy hosting the Super Bowl party that we should do it at our house instead. So if they don’t like me backing the Chiefs they’re free to leave. I don’t think they’ll leave though. Probably just taunt me every time the Niners do something good.
Make sure you’re packing heat in case the Chiefs do win, I know you have you’re disabilities, make sure your equaled by Sam Colt.
The madness is stronger in some towns than others. You can’t walk five feet in Buffalo during the season without hearing the equivalent.
What else is there to do in Buffalo?
Spend money because it’s so cheap to live there?
Yeah. People still talk daily about the last time the Packers won a SB in 2011, and in Minnysoda they still talk about when they almost did 40 years ago.
If #12 was better than 1-3 in the NFC Championship the Packers would easily have at least two more Lombardi’s
This was the first won HE lost. Hopefully he isn’t over the hill after those collar bone injuries. But it seems so.
But the Packers are stuck with him for a few years. I hope they get things together for another run next season. Most of the pieces are in place, but you are right, the offense just doesn’t click like it did.
I don’t see it as being ‘stuck’ with him. He has the skill set, he was off this year, has been for a few years; but he isn’t exactly a dime a dozen QB. Sadly, as he’s the same age as me, he has only about 4 years left. He’s as old now as Favre was when he took over. Favre and Brady showed their can be more left in the tank. But it’s a matter of getting him back to what he is good at. He thrived in McCarthies fast paced offense where you take a drop and throw. He got famous for the long passes, but he was better at the underneath stuff. Farve was good at ‘Go big or Go Home’, while Rogers thrived under a timing offense. Rogers seems to have bought into his own legend that never was.
SD I have never heard of the family of a dead criminal getting sued.
Interesting.
First time to hear that song. Pleasant voice.
At the kid’s electone lesson. One of the school’s staff tells me that there’s her recital has been moved up an hour next week. “I wish you would’ve told me that earlier. Now I have to juggle my schedule to make it.” The staff lady says, “Sorry about that. The other lady was supposed to tell you about the change 2 weeks ago but she is scared of talking to foreigners.” WTF?!
What is an electone?

Damn, that shouldn’t have been able to elicit goosebumps, but…here we are.
My kid isn’t that good. She does a decent “Don’t Go Breakin’ My Heart”.
Could have been Achy Breaky Heart. Dodged a bullet there.
Heh
You are Gulliver, they fear you may eat Lilliputians.
They can’t keep me down, Man.
I know that, I saw the cartoon Without Rotoscoping Their’d be no hat and hair.

Long time no Night Shift for me. Sad!
Late to the party but checking in anyhow.
You’re welcome, as long as you aren’t looking to pick a fight.

Dang, Cacc–I was just wondering yesterday if you were still around!
And, of course, pretty much all the other regs have buggered off.
Straff–you still out there? Anyone?
Still here. Sort of. Night glass is starting to kick in.

Good morning you wonderful people. I hope today is fantastic and frabjulous for everyone.
As long as I sleep well, it should be at least OK.
I’m sure Rhywun is quite nervous if he’s up.
Today is damp and cold. Unfortunately Brexit can’t fix the weather.
I forgot to post this the other day. Something about waiting for the morning links to come around but then getting distracted. Stupid is and stupid does, or something.
Also check out the pair on Rico. He seems to be swinging a little harder these days. Good on him.
I woke up and almost panicked because I thought it was monday and I was late for work.
You’re fine. It’s Tuesday.
I need to make some abrupt lifestyle changes, cause it seems like every Sunday morning I type the same thing here: “pickle juice STAT!”
Church is gonna be rough.
