That's exactly what I was thinking. Just a general statement not directed at any of the fine individuals from Michigan. You know, your comment about not removing the governor reminded me of what I saw yesterday about California's gov.; that they had enough petition signatures to file a motion for his removal. I wonder if something similar would take hold in Michigan.

If it doesn't happen, it needs to happen!!!
 
  • Good Afternoon, D-Leagueanites and Lurkers.
  • Went into the woods a couple of hours ago and we had 60º at that time.
  • Lola bas been chasing the tiny lizards, About 1/2 afraid of them. I like them because they eat the Soldier Ants that plague us. Lola is taking a nap.
  • Haven't seen any White Tails much in about a month or so.
  • We've all had our Cov19 shots.
  • Haven't been anywhere.
  • Loving the stories y'all are telling.
  • As you were.
  • Carry on.

We have a lot of Michiganders who settle here. I have found them to be very nice people and hard workers. I think they vote conservative for the most part. My best friend in the army was from St Johns, Michigan. We visited him one time and went snowmobiling. First and only time but it was fun.

My grandmother was born in Traverse City, Michigan in 1882. Her father was killed in 1888, her mother remarried and the family moved to Turkey Creek, FL in 1890

My g-grandpa was killed while constructing a loading dock on Lake Michigan. A fellow worker mishandled a support timber and it fell crushing his skull. He had worked earlier on the Grand Hotel located on Mackinac Island, Michigan. He has his name on a plaque in the hotel listing all of the workers who built this magnificent hotel. I have never visited but would like to. So I have a few branches of my ancestry buried in Michigan soil.

Go figure, I had my second vaccine yesterday and I just finished my second Yuengling. Must be some sort of reason associated with that...(Should I break the hex and drink a third? Let me flip a coin.)(Yeah, heads I do drink another and tails I drink another.)

I asked Siri a question and she could not come up with the answer. I called her a DA, and I swear, she replied that it is not a nice thing to say. I hate artificial intelligence.
 
OK it is my time to rant against the United States Internal Revenue Service.

I completed and submitted my taxes in early February. E-filed. On February 12 at 4:06 PM EST, I received an email saying my tax return had been accepted by the IRS. Today is April 28 and they still have my money.

When I go to the IRS website they tell me they are behind because of COVID-19. Yet they can give money to every Tom, Dick and Harry around the world but can't process refunds on a timely basis. Our government is a tangle web of bureaucrats who appear more concerned with procedural correctness at the expense of people's needs.

An efficient organization would have the computer spit out a check or wire the money to my bank the minute the return is accepted. Not come up with a COVID excuse. I am tired of COVID excuses in our government.



Don't complain, Sawnee. By the time you file your first time under the Biden administration, you will be PAYING taxes, and dreaming of the day you had to wait on your refund.
 
Speaking of Nehi, Peach Nehi is one of the better summer drinks out there imo.

The best soda I have ever tasted (and the most expensive) is Kutztown Soda. They have a variety of flavors like Birch Beer, Sarsparilla, Root Beer, Grape, Orange, Cream Soda, etc. They come in 24 oz plastic bottles, made with pure cane sugar and not carbonated. They are really expensive, like $36 for a 10 pack so I don't order them, but when we go to Amish country, they sell them individually for about $1.50 each and I stock up. Best ever.

I turned on my Siri; however, my wife's name is Sherry. Every time I called Sherry; Siri would answer. I went back and stressed Sherry in the learning mode; however, Sherry and Siri is too close for Siri to know who I am talking to.

I did like to tell Siri to pay a song and she would do it. Sherry tells me to stick it. :cool:
 
Sure you will not be drowning in beer before reaching the 18th hole? I once went out with the afore mentioned friends golfing (I drove the cart with the cooler) and those guys were getting sauced drinking and golfing.
Drank 4 today over 18 holes. Sweated out 5.



The refund is only about $2,900 which is chump change. What the heck, IRS?

Hey Mr. Gotrocks, that's 126 30 packs to the poor beer drinkers of the world. Hardly chump change. That's 3,762 beers or enough to play 10 or 14 rounds. Know your audience.

I am bragging.
Bullshit!

You've got yours set in "grandma" mode. I've got mine set in "millennial" mode and she tells me that she will kill me if I don't submit.
I'm in the Pepsi Generation, anyway.
Attababy! Drive through that I used to stop at and get a bourbon and coke for when I got home, now has to give me a bourbon and Pepsi. They asked me why and I told them the best slogan I've heard yet. " I don't how to be less white, but I do know how to drink less Coke".

I do not, however, know how to watch less baseball. I wasted my boycott of that bullshit on the second strike they had. Never went back and don't miss it in the least.

Its been years since we've had water in our basement. At least 10 years. It has to rain HARD for that to happen. For a good 45 minutes it came down in buckets. I could barely see the back of my yard. This is only the beginning of a wild 24 hours.
It rained enough to wet my driveway but it is dry now. I live no more than 30 nautical miles from you. Weather be crazy at times. Maybe we should sacrifice a virgin or something to even it out. OR, we could all switch to electric cars. That would even the weather out.

My wife said it was no more than 30 minutes so that makes me a drama queen. No need to sacrifice a virgin. I'm buying one for my nephew's 18th birthday as a surprise.

Those electric cars are so cute. I thought about buying one for my front yard. It would look great next to the gnomes and windmills.

I would be more than happy to help you certify the virgin as such. I'll talk to my wife and see if that's a go or not. I'll probably have to sacrifice the two get out of jail frees girls that I have now. Salma Hayek and Eva Mendes will just have to get over it. If either try to get me after this then they'll have to deal with her.

Let me know if that's a plan!

Good luck.

It's been years for me as well, but I've thankfully only once experienced a flooded basement. What a mess. Hopefully never again.

Sounds like a plan. No need to go in to too much detail with your wife.

Fortunately this time was only a small amount of rainwater. Not over yet. We've had two flooded basements in 30 years. One a water heater problem, the other was during the big flood in the 90's. Can't remember the year but the Ohio River completely submerged houses on the Indiana side. Unfortunately our basement drain was covered with a rug. Have no idea how I missed that one. Still would have been a mess regardless.
 
Truth isn't just stranger than fiction, truth is uglier than fiction. So ugly in fact, we invented fiction to divert our attention from the truth.

It is really sickening to see what you'd think are reasonably intelligent adults take on pushing vulgar and deviant items they know are not within the realm of reason or morality. Not only that they go to bat to enforce the stupidity and deviance...

Oh, and most if not ALL of these people have drivers licenses. A real sobering thought...

When I had to teach my daughter to drive, my first lesson to her was the following. Think about the dumbest person in your class. There's one like that in every class. Think about all the classes there have been in the past. Now think about all those people out on the road. You better be careful.
