D-League

[bertfan31]

I hear they were selling insurance without a license. 🌼

Probably threw a felony Causing An Irritation at them too.

Howdy d-League. Just back from Kansas City seeing my new grandson and my six-year old granddaughter.

It was a great visit. Got to eat some good KC barbecue.

But it wore me out. Had to get up at 3:30 am to make my way east.

Glad to see you made it back safely.

About time they get these quack dealers off the street.

Quack is whack!

Goosed the officer when he was not looking.

If they used a candy cane it would be like a Christmas goose.

Not sure what they did, but I can guarantee they weren't trying to cross the border.

Maybe that's what happened and the kind officer is driving them down to sign up for free health care and some tasty food stamps.

Good morning D-League. It's currently 55°, with rain and a high of 69° later today.

Everyone stay safe out there today.

 

[AustinTXCat]

Good morning from ATX. Currently 72°F and cloudy. Expect high of 85°F and 40% rain chance.

Must return to grocery store either today or tomorrow. Forgot milk, chocolate milk, grapefruit juice (for me) and breakfast croissants (for wife) while out shopping yesterday. May visit this morning during my walk.

On local news just now: staffing shortages. Employers can't find people to work.

Monday, Monday....

Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

My friend sent me this photo. This is an air fried turkey. I have had a ton of fried turkey but never air fried. How about y'all.. If so did you like it

Yes, That is how my wife cooks it. She injects it with her mixture of seasonings first and then into the air fryer which cooks it quicker than the oven.

Hmmmmm, never had a cherry cobbler, cherry pie yes but, never cobbler. Had black berry, peach, apple cobblers though. Not going anywhere today so...

Morning legionnaires!

As stated above, not going anywhere today, rained yesterday and supposed to rain the rest of this week. If we catch a break I will get out for a few hours of fishing. Will have to look at the radar and see if if gives me a good 2 to 3 hours window. Have not been to the local lake just down the road so, it is time to give it a try again. Temperature will be up to 80° today which is warmer than it has been but, back into the 70's for the foreseeable future. Loving it this cool in May. High 80's to low 90's is the norm here for May.

Wife installed a Firestick this weekend and we are going to give it a shot to see if it is any good. Anybody else have Firestick? Going to get rid of Sling and a couple of other cheap ones we have because together they get almost as high as Dish and DirectTV trying to get some of the channels I want.

Unless you have a convection oven...which is basically what an air fryer is, only bigger.

We've got 3 of them, along with 4 Roku's. Works fine as long as you have good internet service. Are some some functions of the Roku I like better (search function for one).

In a hurry....have a good day all.

Don't leave this world without knowing how wonderful a cherry cobbler is. Blueberry is another popular one around here. I love me some cherry cobbler.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

On to New York and the Belmont. Ahhh New York. If I can make it there, I'll make it anyplace.

Sounds like not many New Yorkers are making it up there anymore. They are losing more people than California.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

Good Monday morning. Our temperature at present is 62°sunny with a 2% chance of rain. Our high should reach 85°,

Listening to the radio he governor is going to expand gambling in the state and has to call a special session to kick it around. Just a few week ago a treaty was signed with the Seminole Nation to continue handling all of the sports betting in Florida. This is projected to brings in 2.5 billion to the state. And the Indians do OK too. Real good.

On another sports story the NBA is not drawing many people on TV. If I heard correctly it is about 1 1/2 million viewers on TV. How can they pay LeBron's salary on that? Maybe China pays it.

My wife's favorite pie, followed closely by blackberry.

Some more noise...

Oh, I hope all's (Ya'll all's day. (In honor of Loretta)) day will go well and all will have a profitable Monday. God Bless you all...

This morning's haul. Life is very good.

 

[MdWIldcat55]

Good morning D-League.

May Austin's good luck extend to us all. My wife found a $20 bill jogging recently that had been bleached out by the rain to an extent she thought it was "counterfeit." So I was the one who ended up profiting.

A good night's sleep, a six-mile walk and I'm back to work. It was great seeing my daughter and her family in KC, but it made for a compressed weekend. Feels like I just got up from this chair a couple hours ago. Ah well, it could be worse. Like a lot of you, I've dug ditches for a living, cleaned the oil sludge out of the bottom of massive storage tanks, pushed wheelbarrows of concrete UP a grade because the only place the truck could park was downhill from where we were laying a foundation, and so on. So, this desk work is easy money I suppose.

Still, I envy you retired guys.

We have 1 Firestick, 3 Rokus and a Nvidia Shield Pro. All pretty much do the same thing. I prefer the Nvidia because it also can be used as a Plex server but it costs quite a bit more than the others.

And I'll give you one guess what state they're fleeing to. I'm still amazed that Cuomo is allowed to continue as governor.

Rock Island road is a mighty good road
Rock Island Line it's the road to ride

The problem is Sir, it seems they are leaving New York and bringing their filthy lives with them... A smart person would leave the filth behind. (They are leaving due to the filth but, it seems they like it.)

I, like you have had my hard labor life versus what I have now. I was thankful then and I am thankful now. I don't envy the additional years but I do envy being able to wake up to do what I want to do.. though, I am still thankful!

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

It's just an answer to the question in the post to which I responded. Don't think about it too hard

You got to remember that you are dealing with an old man! 😁

Anybody got a little grandkid that I can borrow for a year? Not to live here....just to be legally tied to me for a year.

39M Families to Receive Monthly Child Payments in July

They are paying a huge portion already WITH funds from our government support and aid to China.

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

Morning folks. It is a cloudy 66.0°F here with a small chance of rain.

I am glad the travelers got home safely.

On air fryers and convection ovens: We have both and the only difference is the little air fryer is faster but harder to clean up. But I may try the turkey or at the least a turkey breast in the convection oven instead of using the regular bake function. On turkeys I usually smoke them in my little electric smoker outside.

You all have a great day.

I've seen some cicada carcasses around but yesterday while walking the dog I saw thousands littering the roads and sidewalks. It'll just get worse too. I read where there can be up to 1 1/2 million of these critters per acre. We'll really have to watch our dog closely too. From the Courier-Journal yesterday:

"Is it OK for my dog to eat cicadas? He loves them. This answer comes from personal experience. During the last emergence event we ended up with a very expensive vet visit that involved our retriever experiencing a bout of pancreatitis and an even more expensive surgery to remove a nerf football-sized mass of undigested cicada carcasses."

I could have went all day without knowing that... (Just the unappetizing thought..) 😥 😅

Good morning to the coolest kids on the block.

Now you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kinda mad
I had lot's of luck but it's all been bad
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive

My fishin' pole's broke, the creek is full of sand
My woman run away with another man
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive

And that right there is how every democracy before ours, died. Once the people realize they can just vote themselves money rather than work for it, it's over. The democrats are buying the government so they can rebuild it with a Chinese blueprint.

Wife's car was a false alarm today. I thought it would be and couldn't understand why the oil would need to be changed after 3000 miles on a new car, at a dealer. Turns out the car was telling her it wanted its oil changed because the last dumbass who changed the oil didn't reset the computer.

Oh well, I needed to get up at 0630 and drive in Louisville morning traffic anyway. No! I did not!

Came home and started laundry. Was gonna play golf in the senior league today but I've got dishes to do as well, aaannnddd, I have to go back to Louisville to pick her up at 1630.

Hope everyone has a great Monday. I know I am...

More vote buying from the Democrats.

Surprisingly there weren't nearly as many cicada carcasses scattered about today. They're either miraculously cleaning up after themselves or people are keeping their yards and sidewalks clear of them. Most can be seen on heavily tree-lined streets. Supposedly billions are being delayed due to COVID. The little bastards are not wearing a mask either. Seriously though, billions have been delayed due to below normal temperatures. Expect an onslaught in the coming weeks.

Or a pack of dogs are scarfing down... Will need a squad of Vets after this rampage...

Rained a ton this a.m. & more tomorrow. 60's now. Expecting 80's by weekend. Cicada heaven then I expect.

He was probably listening when I talked about walking the far ends of windy parking lots. Lots to be found in those areas. Just follow the wind and not Bovine Flatulation...
