I think anyone who hands out hats with slogans is a strong chance of winning elections and creating incredible personal wealth, and hopefully they get to meet Borat. Hello all, hope you are well. Been busy, and was having a rough time getting on the server here. My tolerance at waiting is poor, and ...

Hey Peter, thinking of you and sending good vibes man. Don’t let anyone get you down. Sorry about your cat I just read a NYTimes article about coping. It was good for the most part. Ways to reset, like through music, or holding your face in ice cold water for 15 seconds!! I laughed at the water idea...

I don't bother with a flu shot, but that's largely because the couple I've had have ended with me sicker than in years I didn't get one. --A Same for me. And Deer, It was hard to find toilet paper for the household at one point, so I am guessing you had your work cut out with school supplies. Hope ...

Ha! Talking with an overbite behind a mask is so Jim Carrey.

The adhesive and the vent ideas are good ones.

Bloody potato peels!
It is karma. After it was advised to me, I told someone once if they washed their hands in urine they'd toughen up.

I think there has to be a better design of face mask. Wearing spectacles a lot, I fog up nearly all the time. I saw a woman wearing a g-string as a mask (no not on the porn channel) and it occurred to me that maybe the things would go better tied under my armpits! Anyway, the vaccine (not that there...

Just wanted to say this thread has some really great posts. Awesome work there Stevie. and Sarge and all the others too. I have been listening to Pink Floyd for a while now. I wasn't around or at least listening in to appreciate the Syd Barrett sounds then (but shit I really dig that "English&q...

I like that idea Menolly. It would need buy in and consent from the tribes no doubt, but I think that idea and sentiment is a classy one. The drawback would be which name to pick. It seems many different tribes lived side by side before the Europeans settled in the Washington area. http://www.ala.or...

Well, I mean, technically, that's true enough if people are behaving like that...

That is the way it looks in Victoria right now.
The foolish minority.

I heard on the radio coming out of the BBC that the London police made particular mention of Soho following the opening of pubs, and how they have realised that "drunk people are not able to socially distance themselves".
Based on a couple of shed parties, I think they're right.

I look forward to friday nights. But it is a bit cold, so I don't think that there will be any hi-jinking up mucking going on in my neck of the woods.
Not at least until after the sun goes down.

Have a good weekend all!

Thanks Av, I was being a smart-arse. But I did think it was interesting in terms of what happened when the pollution backed off. Now I am sure you will dig up a quote to use against me.... It has been one of those kinds of weeks. Sometimes when asked what i do for a living I am urged to tell people ...

Peter, I read one of Avs comment on the weather without the pollution during these lockdowns, and that the earth is "heating up". I thought that was interesting. Ask Av to look it up for you. ;) Gotta admit tho, the winters 'round our way seem to be getting colder each year. But then I rec...

I looked in the mirror before I left the house this morning in attempt to remember the importance of vanity. I have shaved by brail in the shower for years and years. Black eye is still there. I doubt I am posting it, but it has black, blue, purple, red and yellow qualities. Its full across my top e...

Yes the mesh works most of the time for most of the roof. The gutters in between - where roof meets extension roof - are the death-wobbling, ladder challenge. I think I need a scaffold..... ;) Our dog got spooked through the night. Headbutted me as I was sleeping. I gave him a pat, he went back out ...

Today I cleaned the gutters which are the hard to reach bastards that no amount of gutter guard can protect. I do it once a year. I was late this year and paid for it. Did not fall off a ladder but got the death wobbles up enough at least twice that I am still exhaling about it. Have to come up with...

Peter. There is no way to polish that turd. I reckon there is a new doomsday game coming out on playstation and what we are seeing on tv right now is an official trailer. Wonder who the cult behind this worldwide madness will emerge as being? Seems they aren't interested in an "Island in the su...

Mondays.... Oh the weekends go by so quickly.
Nice to watch a bit of Rugby League on the tv again. It almost feels like the triffids have left the country!

I think the world has gone madder than it was yesterday. The media went from pumping Covid masks, to riot masks. I watched that phone footage of the cop with his knee on the neck of George Floyd. I wish all the people near to or affected by that the will to find the right outcome. That probably mean...

Damn cats. Walkin' through the house at 5am screaming "FEED ME" and then moving into the tiled bathroom, for which the door must have been left slightly ajar, howling "ISN'T ANYONE AWAKE YET?" Or maybe it was "I CANT HEAR MYSELF HOWLMEOW, QUICK SOMEBODY FEED ME!" Had th...

Ha! I played rugby with a fellow who had that Pam Ayres Berko accent. I used to love the way he'd say "cider"... kinda like "Sigh-Darr".... With the rolling eyes n'all! He was a hard so and so too. I have been sleeping like a kid who just started school. Almost at the end of my f...
