Okay---Here's something I ran across---whgat happened was, an EBay auction of an old Rammmler(64 Classic 2 dr.), and politician/auto executive/Mormon/ Dad-of-Mitt George Romney was the original owner! Yup. But yeah---How'd you kids like to have THAT? Prolly gets decent gas mileage. Hope that helps you some. Thankk Mee.Attachment 5328Attachment 5328Attachment 5328
Okay---There are many things that give me almost endless amusement. See? It's usually something about what some people seem to think is really cool. The whole concept of 417-land(Eat, drink, and be married, from scripture, loosely) is a good one! But yeah---I thought of this what-if, where they opened up a Seven Eleven Missippissi location here, featuring throwed rolls & live entertainment by a 99-year old man on his banjo. Business Casual(ballcap& cammo overalls) requested. That'd go over good, I'm afraid. Ha.Attachment 5345
Okay---What some people think is really cool(ha)is the product of a local company. They market bike racks to put on the back of your monster van or SUV or pickup, to haul your high-$$$ "gravel bike" or "mountain bike", many counties away--even to neigboring states Ark & Ok, to ride bikes. What makes it not only ree-dick-ulous is A) the amount of effort expended over the years to make THIS county "Bicycle Friendly", including infrastructure and driver awareness; and B)Those bike racks sell for close to $1000. Not quite, but close. Then the Cool People have to have the latest "Gravel Bike" with a plastic frame and electric shiftinf and hydraulic brakes, but just one small front chainring. Reverse progress, for the sake of "something new". See? Then, they haul their $6000 plastic bike to ark, so they can ride in the mud, and get the bike dirty. Chain and all. Cool=Stupid. Yup. Then, trade, for the latest thing, every year. Seewhatumsayin'?
Okay---I ran across this photo of just one of many Dodge Hellcats that have been damaged beyond repair. Seems like drivers with one o' these sometimes have trouble coping with having a vehicle with its' speed potential Yup.Attachment 5348
Okay----I figure that since them demmacratz are going all-out to bork Trump and now Clarence Thomas, that turnabout is fair play. Paybacks are hell. So yeah---how about a rally---say 20,000 of the faithfull---in fronta ol' Jimmah Cahtahs home, while he's on his deathbed---with everyone chanting: "hey, hey, ho' ho', the worst president EVER has got to GO!!!", for hours on end. That'll teach 'em. Maybe another 100,000---no--300,000--on the Mall in D.C. , chanting the same thing. Over and over and over. A show of solidarity of The Formerly Silent Majority, who listen to AM talk radio, their only platform.
Yup.
Okay---Get yer tickicks NOW, ta see Jerry Steinfield say funny things in Cedar Rapids, Iwah next summer. See---he's on tour, as they say. Must need the mooh-lah. Ha. Guess what---there's only 3(three) tickicks left, the cheap one is $399, and the top price one is 659, and the other one somewhere in between. But yeah---sounds to be really questionably worth it, ta spend that much on Steinfield Tickicks. Because hey---Jerry was the LEAST entertaining one, waaay back on his Tee-Vee show. He played straight man to the other characters. Hope that helps you some. Thankk mee.
I've seen brief clips of Jerry doing standup, and I never found him all that funny. The only comedian I would be tempted to see is Ismo. He cracks me up.
Okay---I do agree. That said, I had a conspiracy-theory revelation, after I looked to see who Ismo is. The theory is this: Ismo is on tour as a sort of goodwill ambassador in the USA and western europe. It is for the purpose of raising awareness that Finns are people, too, and that defending them with US lives and US armaments is the right thing to do, if and when Vladimir gets out of hand, like Adolf. See? Ismirs credentials are an educational background at the level of academia. Most college profs can tell a joke or two or three or even more than that, to make their students believe they are cool. So yeah---he has been recruited to do just that. Travel around, making funny jokes to put people at ease. Remember the Yakov Smirnov guy of the post-cold-war Branson comic of the 90's? He's passe', now. Anyway, what happens is, people are dismissive of my ideas, because they start splitting hairs and critiquing my grammar & spelling,or claiming my reasoning is only circumstantial evidence, which "proves" how dumb I am. So, anyway-- Years before the Brinttney Griner incident, which acheived its' intended effect, when it aroused responses along the redneck/libtard divide, the USA arrested a female Russian national who was in the USA as an industry rep for the sporting ammo industry, based in a remote part of Russia. Walmart used to do a brisk bizness in Russian ammo; now not at all. But yeah---She was arrested by the FBI(aha!)held and prosecuted for several years for being an unregistered agent or whatever, until she was deported back to Russia. But yeah--it's all about the tactics of diplomacy, formal or informal, good and bad. See? See? You don't? Okay. Thankk mee, anyway.Quote:

All the cheap seats are gone, and there's only limited number of the high-priced seats left. But yeah---ANY tickick to see the Foo Fighters is too high-priced, because they don't make music, just noise for fools. Yup. So anyway--concert mania is a real disease , and too bad Jordan Peterson doesn't address the subject. But see---he's going on tour too. Ha. How do you like that?
Okay---I've purchase inexpensive shelving at auction, that was expensive when new. It's clean & in good shape, due to it being govvvement surplus. But, I had an old wooden shelf I got over 40 years ago, that is pretty handy for keeping stuff I can use up & out of the way. But what happened was, a roof leak developed and damaged one side of it. See? But yeah--I spent parts of 3 days rehabbing the old wooden shelf, using lumber that I salvaged/had left over from other projects. I bought a bottle o' wood glue and drywall screws and a quart of mis-mix paint at the big box, to fix it up. So now, it's serviceable. That shelf was ??? old when I got it in 1980. I was told it was from an auction in Cherokee, Iwah. I guess. Most people woulda just tossed that shelf in the dumpster or on the burn pile. But, I've had it so long. Yup. It's part of my backyard cottage furnishings. Hope that helps you some. Thankk Mee.
