Courageous gal, MT! That was a pretty amazing trip.

Prayers for your dad, jimmyk.

How could a Texan vote otherwise? Wonderful, creative ad! https://www.facebook.com/CrenshawforCongress/videos/2466447170314690

Lyle, is PM on the 28th still open? We’re in.

I think Trump should offer that Joe can have a teleprompter and an earpiece for the debate. He is obviously incompetent to take advantage of either.

Interesting podcast from Hoover with John Yoo on replacing RBG. He gives a rundown on six of the possible nominees in the last part. https://www.hoover.org/research/area-45-replacing-notorious-rbg

Wow, Mel, it’s gone already !

C, did you get my email? I just need your address for shipping. If not, just send to (my first and last name) at runbox.com. Both end with “e”.

Clarice, sending you a design. Do you want a frame to stick in the ground? Or what appears to be a spindly wire? I will try to post the design in case anyone else in a blue hell wants one.

Clarice, plastic or aluminum? Two sided? What size?

I love hardware stores. When we moved part time to St. George I found Hurst Hardware. (Now an Ace). I think I spent at least 2 hours roaming the aisles so I would know what I could buy there. Along with the huge hardware inventory, amazing nuts and bolts drawers where you can just buy one of each, they have a super fabric department. And the weirdest women’s clothing you can imagine. I bought a 90 degree vice for a project I am working on. Later saw it at HD for $10 less but I do support local. They recommend masks for customers but do not require them. Yay. cc has a great fastening selection, too. 😏

29 votes! Malley looks just like the only dog we had when I was a kid. “Fritz”, of course.

Clarice, I got your copy. What is the website?

MT, found this YouTube with Lloyd Marcus singing. https://youtu.be/9Cva0t0s4PU

From Ig’s No Mask cite. https://nofacemask.blogspot.com/2020/07/world-renowned-epidemiologist-knut.html "No respiratory disease virus could spread in the open. So, if you are protesting on the street, there is no risk for virus… Anthony Fauci said masks are there as a sign to show that we’re willing to do what he wants us to do. So, it’s a sign of the willingness to comply. It is a modern version of the Gessler hat." Well, now I have my Trump mask it will be the only one I wear.

Lie / lay / lain Looks like Brits also use “have lied”. Sounds weird. No wonder it is so confusing.

High of 35 today. Snow on our slopes. 8:20 tee time tomorrow. (Not happening)😶 Overnight low of 28. Really freaky. Grammar lessons are good. My pet peeve is lie/lay. Easy peasy. You lie in a bed and chickens lay eggs. Great Taki article. And the Salena Zito trip through PA also. Our trip through Oregon was thoroughly Trump country with large signs and flags all along the highways. I am hoping that some Portland folks will wake up, like Lyle’s anecdote.

Great info, Lyle!

New!

Hope I am catching jimnj to say thanks for your very thoughtful comments on my paintings. And yes, I use some of my nearly 60k photos as reference.

Fantastic shoutout, sbw! And well deserved.

.. Perfectly wonderful time tonight with Lyle, Mrs. Lyle and his lucky for all MIL. Fun to see the love shared. We are blessed to have this weird meeting place. We had the aforementioned magnum and two more bottles. We are staying at the hotel that houses the restaurant. Good idea.

45 is a really good number, Cap’n.😊

Popping in to say thanks for all the kind words last night. Only to wake up to JOM typhus errors. Love to all you peeps. Hitting the road soon for another great meetup and then off to Bandon. Thankfully crossing only the good parts of Oregon.
