This is one tattoo I don't . . .abhor

Why Disney?

Disney is removing the infamous “bride auction” scene from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.

What? Why? Because it isn't PC? That stuff happened. Quit putting your head in the sand.

LOL LuLu

Overheard while waiting for the camp bus to unloaded the kids this evening: LuLu: "Listen up! I want to get home and take a nap, so sit in the your seats until you're called so we can get this done!"

RIP(ieces)

A huge crash in the backyard just now; I'm sorry to report the storm blew over something and our new (to us) glass patio table lies shattered on the deck. I'm heartbroken.

I hardly knew yee. RIP(ieces)

Aunt Rosie

My Great Aunt Rosie is soon to meet her Lord and Maker. Please include her and her kin in your prayers tonight.

LOL OK Then

The storm has knocked out power in the house, yet I just saw someone leisurely biking through this mess. Only in Bay View.

Canoeing Ain't For Babies

Junie got roughed up canoeing at camp. True sad fact: my nine year old canoes, but I've never once been in one.

After screwing up the order in front of me, the cashier didn't know how to subtotal my groceries, tried to void the whole thing, then failed two more times until I swore and told her how to successfully do the job she's paid to do. F'ing imbeciles are the new America.

Huh Bernie?

Wait. Bernie Sanders wife is being investigated for bank fraud . . .and he goes on CNN and blames the President? It's not her first shady deal Bernie. Get over yourself.

The India Trip

Devastating news. The India trip YaYa has been working for and dreaming about for nearly a year has been cancelled. What's more, the Greater LA Girl Scout Council did not notify us - the local council did, when they found out by chance. Many, many tears

here tonight. Epic fail by Girl Scouts. :(

The ISIS Teen

Good. It is not a racial issue, it is a religious and philosophical one. His commitment to those tenets, regardless of race, are abhorrent.

This Hip

I say this as neither an alibi or a plea for sympathy, but merely as a placeholder: this f'ing hip.

Dragonfire

Just finished watching "Dragonfire." As Classic Who goes, it's Ace!

Anthony Young

A heartfelt RIP to former MLB pitcher Anthony Young, infamous for losing 27 straight decisions. I remember following the heart wrenching streak. He has died of a brain tumor at 51 :(

The Trial of a Time Lord

4 stories under a single 14 episode title, there are a lot of ups and downs in this final appearance of the 6th Doctor. Baker's performance features a lot of overacting, the trial is as realistic as Legally Blonde, and it all just feels a bit tired and sad. But it wasn't all bad.

Camp Archery

LK Goes to Camp

Dropping LK off at the camp bus stop was not easy-peezy, as the line took more than twenty minutes to advance. But whatev. She was in great spirits and I hope she had a blast at camp.

In the wake of the most recent CNN retraction of a "Russia Russia Russia" story, two reporters and an editor have been terminated.

A Possum Tale

As she was getting her bike out of the shed Junie ran to me saying there was an animal in the fertilizer spreader. Indeed there was, a young possum that refused to budge until I carried the spreader out and tipped it over on the grass. It's age kept me from killing it, but i can't have it taking up residence in the shed. So I'll be cooking up some internet solutions shortly.

Bible Update

Finished Nehemiah (good writer, admirable man), Tobit (yawn), and Judith (women be trouble, then and now).

Romines

Best meal ever at Romines, might have been the strong ass margarita that made the meal so good, lol. Good times with Dan and LK
