Good morning D-League

It is currently 67° with clear skies and no rain in sight. The high will reach 81°. I am going to take advantage of the weather and clean and seal our travertine around the pool deck and lanai. Sand will be used to level it all out before the sealer. So I am praying for no rain for the next 24 hours.

I trust all are well and in good spirits.

Shopping while drinking is a new concept on me. With the way some folks act down here, I am not sure if this is a good idea. But Publix must have a reason

Good morning all,

Working from the house today. I am thankful. We shall see where this day leads.

Have the electrician coming over to see if he can trace down the electric issue that is still tripping the breaker when My Darling sleeps with her heating pad. Never an issue previously. All our devices are new and were used prior to moving here with no issues...

Do they have a courtesy ride home for people who drink too much or do they have limits on the amount one can drink with each visit. Also, are the drinks complimentary?

Thirsty consumers need to know.

MORNING LEGIONNAIRES!

49° This morning with light winds. Mid 70's expected with sunny skies. Need to take advantage and cut the grass because I have not in about a week and a half and there is rain in the forecast for the next week or so.

Oral surgeon said the area he placed implants in has healed well and we will give it time for the bone to grow around them. Late July he will put the abutments on them and then my dentist will put the fake teeth on them. It's a process that I will do again for the other side after this one. Have two teeth on the left that need to be removed and replaced. Hopefully they can last until then.

I have two ball games tonight so a pretty full day starting with a workout this morning, walking the monster, meeting with daughter's teacher (on line) around noon, cutting the grass (early afternoon) and then rest before game time. Should sleep good tonight.

You folks enjoy your day and God Bless.

It was common to see kids come to school like that back in the day.
I took many a gun into schools (churches, courthouses, community centers, etc too)...sometimes 1/2 dozen or so at a time. No incidents and no one said a word, at least to my face. I coordinated/supervised the Hunter Education program in the eastern 1/4- 1/2 of the state. 34 years w/ Dept. of Fish and Wildlife.
 
Yeah in a place like that I could become a shopaholic....
The local word is they have case upon case of Bud Lite in their warehouses and can't sell it. So they might ice it down and let customers pop a top on the house. They may have a problem giving it away. Several bars in town don't carry that product anymore.

Yes Sir,

Saw a headline this morning Bud sales down 26%. That means nearing 50%... Go ahead, go woke, go broke... That should be the American mantra...

My local kroger store here in ohio has a bar plus booth seating, wine, bottle beer, ten beers on tap, and live music.
 

Have to laugh at the dumb and stupid Sir. I wouldn't drink a free one knowing what I know now and I have had my fair share of Bud products... still would if not for...
 
HA, at least I know I am not hooked... I have that going for me....🙏
The son in law was in for a visit a while back. He brought a case of Miller Lite and left about half of it. I drank one with supper the other day. First in many many years. Surprised me that I didn't even like the taste. I reckon that was a good thing because I used to drink way to much.
 
I received an e-mail of a new law signed this morning addressing WOKE business practices. This law was started because a gun dealer could not get financing from banks to expand their business. The reason was because they engaged in firearms. To hell with the 2nd amendment, I guess.

When word got to the state legislature, they immediately went to work to stop this. About 2 years ago, all state investments were withdrawn from Blackrock because of ESG and WOKE. A little over 2 billion was tied up in Blackrock, but 0 now. Blackrock is one of the most ESG driven companies on earth. So, chalk up a win for individual freedom. Investments will be made based on the maximum returns, not based on the WOKEST. And NO MORE Social Credit Scores. ESG is dead when doing business with state, county and local government.

Yep, I've been reading that is the way they are going after guns in some places. Us old folks are ok because we already have guns, but who knows what the future will bring?

The ones getting hit are small businesses. Like a gun shop. The national banks do a Social Credit Score on you, and you don't bow to their wishes or meet their criteria, they can run you out of business. Without the ability to borrow money, most businesses, especially small ones, can not survive.

This is what they are doing to control the sale of weapons. Drive them out of business. That ended in Florida today. No more social credit scores. It will be enforced.

My wife just got back from Publix and was laughing. She said a lady had grabbed some wine coolers and started drinking them. She estimated the little lady was in her mid 80's. By the time she was ready to check out the lady was in line ahead of her and three of the bottles were empty. A young man cashier was puzzled, and he said he could not ring up empty bottles and called for his manager. They discussed it for a few minutes and the manager said rang her up and off she went.

The little old lady didn't wait for the official memo from Publix. She got a head start. Florida Living is interesting to say the least. I bet she was a New Yorker.
 
Assume it must be so, but haven't heard of increased sales for other brewers. Anyone?

MORNING LEGIONNIARES!

60° this morning with light winds and cloudy skies. Chances of rain all day with a high of near 70°.

Played ball last night and we lost both games. I went 0-6 and one walk. Not my finest hour. Defensively as a team we sucked, offensively too. However, the after the game beers was something new and what I have been asking about here occasionally. Yuengling has finally come to Oklahoma just recently and two of our players had bought some and I finally got the chance to drink one. Liked it. Yuengling will now be my go to after the game beer. At the house, German, Belgian, and Japanese will still be my go to beers.

Hump day today for those grinding it out, couch potato day for me after my morning workout and weather permitting, walking the monster.

Be careful out there today and God Bless.
 
Good morning folks.

All this beer talk has me thirsty. And even less excited about work.

I hadn’t been drinking much beer but ordered a local brew in Istanbul —Efes. It was delicious and I found myself drinking about six a day.

Gloomy and cold in the east. Hope it is sunny where you are.
 
Good morning everyone.

Cool and breezy here so we didn't turkey hunt this morning. We have been repairing our side x side roofs damaged from the tree fall. I'm happy to report those plastic staple type guns work great. We shouldn't have to replace them. I still haven't received any info from the insurance company. The prices of trucks to replace mine have skyrocketed.

@warrior-cat Sorry about the not so great game. But, it's good to see you're human after the last performance you reported.

Sorry about my phone pic. This is the young stage of a Red Spotted Newt. Commonly referred to as a Red Eft. This one is only about 2-3" long. I haven't been on the mountain in the spring as much the last several years so it was good to see one.

I hope everyone has a great day.

@storm1507 Yeah, definitely human. My good days outweigh the bad with softball over the years and even bad days are still not so bad given the fact that at 65 I am still playing. I thank God that I am still able. I was talking last night with another player on our team in his mid 50's who had quit a few years ago but started back again last year because he missed it and was still able. He said his wife finally gave in realizing he still had the fire. We have 3 on our team over 50 (that includes me) 4 over 40, and the rest 30 somethings with one 20 something (son of one of the over 40 players). Diversity of ages.

Got together yesterday for lunch with a group of HS classmates. Seventeen showed this time. I went to see how good I was doing vs. them. LOL. A few were pretty beat up & hardly anyone didn't have some aches/pains. Good time. Guy who keeps track of the class brought his Excel list of the entire class' names as well as the info he has on each. Those deceased were highlighted in yellow. 40/160 gone at age 75. As the list was passed around, everyone was checking to see that they weren't highlighted in yellow.
 
Hello All,

Just settled down after a Mackerel supper. Hung our back patio door curtains so the neighbors can't see me walking in my underwear. (My Darling told me that...) My retort, they only look once...

Only going to hang my belt and tie racks this evening if the Lord doesn't take me home... God Bless you all...

(Plan to work from the home tomorrow. I'll be watching more closely if the Lord tarries...)
