And So It Begins..

Last night we went to our first Christmas Party of the season. It was quite nice. The one at my wife’s workout place, Fitness Connection. As always it was super nice. Tonight is her work Christmas party.

Also last night, we went to the opening of an art exhibit at the National Gallery. It was quite cool.

The wife and I really liked.the hermit crabs.

And today I’m going into work early for a FOD walk, where we walk around the runway and pick up garbage. Then they feed us!

Have a great weekend!

Pleasant Sleep

Had a very pleasant nights sleep for a change. I slept good and was comfortable, which I didn’t realize was such a rare occurrence till just now. I had a dream I was on a boat (or a backyard picnic, not sure which) an i was spraying people with a garden hose. Then late on i go sprayed back.

Here it’s cold and windy. The weather news is discussing the possibility of a “rare December tropical storm” but it’s too cold and I already called it – Hurricane Season is Finished.

Tomorrow is Friday. Enjoy your day.

Service Work

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, ‘l cannot accept money from you, I’m doing community service this week.’

The florist was pleased and left the shop.

When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a ‘thank you ‘ card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replied, ‘l cannot accept moneyfrom you, I’m doing community service this week.’

The cop was happy and left the shop.

The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a ‘thank you ‘ card and a dozen doughnuts waiting for him at his door.

Then a Member of Parliament came in for a haircut. and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, ‘l cannot accept money from you. I’m doing community service this week.’

The Member of Parliament was very happy and left the shop.

The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Members of Parliament lined up waiting for a free haircut.

And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of most countries and the politicians who run them.

Skylar Mack – Jackass Of The YEAR

This ‘person’ comes here for her boyfriends event, maliciously intending to violate her quarantine and endanger countless others. She came for the event, less that two weeks before the event. She knew she wouldn’t have time to do her two weeks quarantine, hence the proof of malice.

Now she’s in a lockdown quarantine facility, her boyfriend is in jail and everyone she came in contact with has to be tracked down and spend two weeks in quarantine and be tested for covid. Including an infant she was holding.

Read the article HERE.

Again, the few ruin things for the many. You treat people like adults, and it works fine till one asshole screws it up for everyone else. Like the 911 bombers who took most of the joy out of air travel. Yep, Skylar Mack is exactly the same type of person as a 911 terrorist.

Very Nice

It was a great weekend. Friday was laser tag, which was very fun.

Above is.my scorecard from the second match. Below is our advanced weaponry attack squad.

Saturday it was perfectly sunny and I went to the beach in the morning and mowed in the afternoon. The law came out good.

Sunday I went diving and although it was cloudy, it was an excellent dive. See a trunkfish eating dinner:

And below are some lobsters in a hole. You can hear them touching the camera.

I took a lot of videos.

Now it’s Monday. Almost a new month.

Have a good week!

Laser Tag Tonight

This morning I was pondering my cup of coffee, wondering why my coffee at work couldn’t be as good as my coffee at home. It’d be nice. Work: inferior coffee, inferior coffee maker. No magic there.

It’s finally a Friday! Tonight is Laser Tag with the wife and some friend,

Never played laser tag before. Hope I dominate and kill everyone!

Have a peaceful weekend!

Happy American Thanksgiving!

It’s Thanksgiving in the US today. It’s a normal workday here. I’m taking leftover chili for lunch.

I guess with covid, a lot of families won’t be getting together this year. I think last year my mom and sister got together. Not this year. My sister is in the hospital after a hernia operation and my mom is locked down at home.

We’ve had a couple nice days in a row and I’m hoping for a beach lunch hour.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Be Careful Out There!

I saw the sign below at a grocery store parking lot. Why wasn’t I warned sooner?

All these years,I’ve been careening wrecklessly around all these parking lots, not realizing a pedestrian could run into me and damage my vehicle! Thanks for finally giving me the heads up!

Why is “wreck” spelled with a W but spell check wants me to change “wrecklessly” to ” recklessly”? Which is correct?

Happy hump day!

Naked Pictures

I’ve had a Galaxy watch since my birthday last July. I use it for exercise every day. Yesterday a co worker was wearing one, and I was showing him all kinds of stuff on it. I feel like I don’t know my way around the watch too well, but when I get in the shower, it goes into all kinds of modes I’ve never seen before and don’t know how to get to.

This morning though, it simply went into “walk” mode. Above is an accidental picture. It’s me, taking a shower, and walking around, getting ready for work. Naked.

Pretty racy, huh?

The Quest For The Perfect Coffee Mug

my current most used coffee mug.

I have never had the perfect coffee cup. They’re either too small, or have an uncomfortable finger-holding thingy, unacceptable advertising, they rust if they’re metal and they stink or stain if they’re plastic. And they can’t be too tippy and they can’t slide around the table if the ship rolls. Its good it they fit in a cars cup holder.

At my in-laws house, there’s a cup with the perfect finger holder, but it holds an insufficient amount of coffee. I have a stainless steel travel bug that has rusted, and is tall and tippy and is uncomfortable to hold. The one I’m using, pictured above, has unacceptable advertising. It says starbucks on the other side, and has an uncomfortable finger loop and burns your fingers if you hold it too long.

So, this weekend, it occurred to me to begin a worldwide quest to find and obtain, to have and to hold, the perfect coffee cup.

In other news, it was a pretty good weekend. I participated in an underwater treasure hunt and won a bottle of barbecue sauce. It was, and is still, cloudy and rainy.

Have a good week!
