A trimming Saturday...

unpack the chainsaw

Flip the lines over the branches
trim Krimpit

recruit a dangling trimmer...
trim branches
move on to the next dangling branch to trim.

Krimpit & Tootsie were too embarrased to pose for photos after they were trimmed

It is 7PM in the East...the Meal is done...people are going their separate way...


I need to get to The Mall!

I need to go Shopping!

(get your hands off my 70" Samsung!)

I saw 3 young ladies here today either coming or going
from the Thanksgiving Table
because they were either coming or going to/from work.

And we had a really good Meal prepared by Maureen & her staff..

Yum, yum you guys...There will be leftovers...Right?


The only song I know that refers to Thanksgiving!

...and I do enjoy the song...




Gobble...gobble...gobble...

Snug as a Bug in a Rug...

Happy to be travelling no place.



Me, Michael & Timothy have travelled the 405 in L.A. We hated it!
Lanes of traffic, traffic, traffic,
and it wasn't even Holiday traffic.


 This is a photo from the traffic chopper 
above the 405 tonight.

Thanksgiving-Eve...

By the way, Route 95 North last Friday night on my return trip
from North Carolina was almost as bad.

The problem is not bad infrastructure in America.
The problem is there are too many people driving cars in America!

Why can I not take a train from Lancaster, Pa to Fayetville, NC
for a resonable price in a reasonable amount of time?


They do it in Europe every day.


Not to mention that Train Stations are a lot more pleasant than Airports!
(The LA Train Station)

Anyway... I am just Happy to be home tonight,
feeding my fish, having a libation,
and watching my TV...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING !

I'm sorry. It has been a week & the Democrat Party is still yelling that the sky is falling! Harry Reid & Sam Stein for example...

Even when President Obama shakes hands with President Elect Trump the Liberals freak out!


Prez please


Wimp, Racist, Evangelical!

so Happy to see you...4 sure..


"shut the f!@$k up Joe!"


The VA Medical system is not neally as bad as the Media says

I visited my VA Audioligist today.

Not so surprisingly she told me I am pretty much Deaf.

She showed me a computer printout that indicated normal people in a Boat. She said, the people in the Boat have normal hearing...their hearing may be xcellant, good, mediocre or weak.

My chart showed that I am the anchor, on the bottom of the Lake, securing the Boat.

It was upsetting when she pointed out that in most areas on the printout I hear Nothing!

I'm thinking to myself, so is this is why I don't mingle so well?

So my Audioligist is recommending me for an implant...or is that inplant?


I asked, "the VA will pay for this?"
She assured me that the VA would pay for it...

What do you think?

Operate? or just let things remain as they are...?

Pirates mess with wrong Navy



This is sorta late for Veterans Day...but I thank you Bill Zee, for being the only person in the World to "thank me for my service"
True Warriors!

Remember when the Somali Pirates were attacking ships off the coast of
Africa only a few years ago?

A Navy cleaned that up!

In the 18th Century crazy Muslims were attacking ships
in the same area & we sent the Navy to end it...


The History of the US Military & the Navy is pretty darn Cool,
remember, at the time the Brits were the ass kickers!

I was thinking about Eagles vs Falcons



Apparently Eagles & Falcons do not mess with each other...except in the NFL...


So since Falcons & Eagles do not attack each other
I looked towards the next Eagle opponent...

The Seahawks...

 I then find out that there is no such thing as a Seahawk!

Paul Allen refused to name his Team The Osprey,
and he instructed his employees to come up
with another Bird name

Eli Goodwin, who worked in the ticket office
came up with the Fake Bird name...

he said...How about a Seahawk?


an Osprey that also does not mess with Falcons or Eagles.

Bottom line? I'm thinking the Eagles will upset the Ospreys
on Sunday!



The US Navy version of the Osprey...
