Out to trim the hedges if it don't rain.

WTF?

Planned Parenthood ads on the JOM site.

Google Ads once again proves AI not ready for prime time.

Just in from cutting the grass. Too much rain lately, it grows too fast and contains too many mosquitos when that happens. I suppose I could buy a riding mower, but then I would have to buy a gym membership to make up the missed exercise.

Make Assholes Squeak Again? In your case, too much foreign object damage from using it as your favorite hat.

Buckeye... Click on the PP ads and siphon their funds to TM. Poetic justice.

I need to cut the grass too.

Waiting for it to get drier, gonna have to bag it.

Better check the weather radar.

Stephanie.... you made the not-so-normal "Meme" (meh-meh) Mrs. Kid share the joke immediately with her FB crowd of over 5K.

Let's get this thread started right.

[Miss Marple the Deplorable]

Daughter cut the front yard and I did the weedeating. We are trying to decide if we want to do the backyard today or wait until tomorrow. Meanwhile, I have to do lunch dishes, throw a load of towels in, and go water the potted plants outside.

[Old Lurker]

Steph's joke is flying around Nantucket as we speak, Kev. Jack will hear the heads exploding all the way south to his beach.

P&P,

From last night, Longmire was filmed in northern NM. I think Las Vegas NM was used as his town. The only reason I originally wondered was when they called Absaroka County ab-sar-oka when anyone from that part of the country would call it Ab-zore-ka. I was born and raised just north of the Ab-zor-ka mountains that are on the southern border of MT and there is a small town of Absarokee that is Ab-zor-kee. Sort of like Cay-roo IL.

There was No Collusion with Russia (except by the Democrats). When will this very expensive Witch Hunt Hoax ever end? So bad for our Country. Is the Special Councel/Justice Department leaking my lawyers letters to the Fake News Media? Should be looking at Dems corruption instead?

We had a brief downpour which means I will have to use manual hedge clippers too dangerous to use electric. (My father lost a friend who cut hedges in the rain)

[Pinandpuller]

Man Tran.

Interesting. I think the cast had some kind of Longmire-Con in Sheridan though. Maybe a wrap party or promo deal. I hear stuff but it gets filtered over time like Rocky Mountain Spring Water.

The battle scenes for Starship Troopers were shot forty miles north of Casper in Hell's Half Acre. I'm sure y'all remember Rocky IV. I didn't realize Outlaw Josey Wales and Django had some shots there. And Every Which Way but Loose.

Right as I posted I remembered I live close to a town the locals call Santa Fee and a town they call Bue-Knee Vista. There's also a town called Fly but it's named after a family.

That last post on democrat collusionand the witch hunt got re-posted by the President 10 minutes later. It comforts me that even he can do a double post.

The United States must, at long last, be treated fairly on Trade. If we charge a country ZERO to sell their goods, and they charge us 25, 50 or even 100 percent to sell ours, it is UNFAIR and can no longer be tolerated. That is not Free or Fair Trade, it is Stupid Trade!

[Davod]

MM. About time someone started to point out the discrepancies.

[Kevlar Kid]

Miss "MultiTasking Marvel" Marple.... how do you dooz it?

[daddy]

I wonder if They Gowdy's heard about this yet: IMRAN AWAN ALLEGEDLY TRIED ‘TO HIDE HIS MONEY’ WHILE DOJ NEGOTIATES WITH HIM---Awan’s lawyer claims his client “does not have a pot to piss in.”

...“This is a national security issue… He (Awan) should have been locked up in jail a long time ago with all his family members,” Rep. Steve King, an Iowa Republican who serves on the Committee on the Judiciary, told TheDCNF after it briefed him on the latest findings. “Anybody that’s hiding assets by buying gold bars and trying to get people to set up LLCs, who knows what else is going on. If he’s going to those lengths there are a lot of assets here,” he said. “How much of this do [prosecutors] know? They should.”

On May 3, prosecutors said they were “currently exploring a possible resolution of this matter.”

“I can’t understand why [prosecutors would strike a plea deal], unless he’s not the biggest fish in the school,” King told TheDCNF.

I can.

"This is called a brain worm"

Hey there PNP!

My antidote (cuz yer worm was effective--- with images of richard harris and all) is to whistle "The Girl from Impanema."

Works very well. Like my "no more tears" solution for cuttin onions: whistle Yankee Doodle Dandee.

Some folks claim "any song will do".... but I jacked around with more than a few and it's the bess wun.

Mac Park wouldnt do anything other than what it normally does "Make me sad."

Have a goot one!

Slow news day so here's an OT question for dawg people:

Why will dawgs roll onto their backs when they find a deposit of foul smelly stuff that would make a human gag?

The one Mrs Kid and I subscribe to is that domesticated dawgs still have the wild instinct of the hunter dawgs of yore to mask their scents.

Psychology Today had some stupid shite about it...basically anthropomorphized dawgz. I won't get into it.

Any other insights? Or not.

[Kevlar Kid]

Waterboard his Paki ass and see what kind of deal would (not) be necessary. Or just ram his head into a toilet bowl so none-dare-call-it a crime against humanity.

[Miss Marple the Deplorable]

Kevlar Kid,

How do I do it? Short attention span! LOL!

Dogs rolling in foul-smelling stuff doesn't surprise me. I have a continuing battle to keep Maggie from thinking the cat pan is an hors d'ouevre tray.

[Jim Eagle]

Tiger is in the hunt at Jack's place. But just missed an easy birdie.

Buckeye, you going?

They have shut down Tuckahoe Road which runs through Shinnecock Hills, so that they can start putting the finishing touches on the Open course and all the facilities. Bang up job so far by the USGA. If you are coming from the City or West LI, both the Jitney and LIRR have stops at Shinnecock.

Speaking of cats, doodlemum has a new one:

Ya. Anya has the same disgusting habit. Drives Mawmee Dawgz absolutely insane.

PS: Maggie's a great name for a dawg.

[Kevlar Kid]

"Awan’s lawyer claims his client “does not have a pot to piss in.”

Noticing he didn't need to say anything about toilet paper. But hey! All cultures are EQUAL.

[henry]

Send Awan to San Francisco, rumor has it you don't need a pot there.

[Kevlar Kid]

Dr J:

Our cats are the best hiders in the world; of themselves that is.

Mrs. Kid was "looking" for our boy cat "Buddy". For about 20 minutes.

Then she figured out she couldn't find Chi or Gracie, the girl kitties.

WTF? She gets a lil panicked that these 100% house cats escaped while our screen door was being worked on.

Another 20 minutes went by. No Buddy. Nobody.

I was otherwise occupado but finally decided to help. Got me a fistful of catnip and put in the hallway.... don't know where they were hiding. But there they were like big ducks in a tiny puddle.

Mrs. Kid muttered something under her breath and went back to her duties.

Hey! Free Dope! Thanks Paw!

We give $500 Million a year to Planned Parenthood and Neil Cavuto has spent two hours bitching about us paying for North Korea’s Hotel rooms in Singapore because that’s what they expect. For denuclearization and peace..

==============================Neil is letting his Never Trumper sympathies surface, I see.

Good Lord Neil...

[Old Lurker]

Kev "Waterboard his Paki ass and see what kind of deal would (not) be necessary."

My point is/was/will be that that should have been accomplished at least a year ago.

That is was not and for all we know, is not, and that Trey played so dumb about it for so long tells me all I need to know about the GOPe Congress protecting the Deep State at the everlasting detriment to the elected President.

[Old Lurker]

Kev again " in Virginny where Paw lives "Buena Vista" is "Biew-na-vista"."

Imagine how they pronounce Versailles in Kentucky. You would be correct.

[rse]

OL-I think I pronounced it that way in my head until I was 10 or so. Just imagine what I did with hors d'ouevres when I first encountered that word with my phonetic brain.

[daddy]

I hate gardening. I hate weeding. I hate raking. I'm pretty sure I hate all forms of yard work. But I find peace of mind snow shoveling the driveway.

Diagnosis, please?

[Man Tran]

Kev,

In case you didn’t notice a couple days ago, we’re sucked into a wedding in Oakland on 8/18. Will try to make time for a NorCal meet. Mebbe one for the South Bay gang, too.

[Miss Marple the Deplorable]

daddy,

It all balances out. I hate snow shoveling. LOL!

The mystery of the leaked letters that President Trump tweeted about is solved. Greta Van Sustern tweeted with a screen cap from a New York Times article. You can read the excerpt at the link to this tweet:

You can add "Buckup" for Beaucoup, Illinois

[daddy]

"Awan’s lawyer claims his client “does not have a pot to piss in.”

Perhaps Awan's buying the $40,000 Gold Bars so he can have them melted down and molded into a pissing pot, ala' the Guggenheim:

[Captain Hate]

The one Mrs Kid and I subscribe to is that domesticated dawgs still have the wild instinct of the hunter dawgs of yore to mask their scents.

Lacking a doggie mind meld that's my hypothesis too. Other than an easily cleaned up episode with a dead fish when he was a pup, Teddy has steered clear of doing that.

[Miss Marple the Deplorable]

Add Verr-sales for Versailles, Indiana.

Are you allowed to grow enough for personal use?

So it turns out oregano is a mint and it overwinters very well here, but thinning it is actually pleasurable.

[Pinandpuller]

I hear MacArthur Park is a good place to buy drugs or get ripped off trying to buy drugs. Is it where that kid got sucked in the sewer pipe?

I bought fresh basil at the store yesterday.

$4 for what looks like 6 leaves of a stinky weed?

I think I know what is getting planted in the window boxes:)

[Kevlar Kid]

PNP! "Personal use" moi? ;) Back in my farmin' days---> semis for personal use. But i've told the story before.

Oregano is fun to grow. All of our herbs do well over the Bay Area winters. Cooking sage, oregano, rosemary(! prolific).

Makes our world go round.

Buckeye, stick in in the ground, in sunlight. Water occasionally. Basil likes to grow. (I grow basil year round indoors).

[cathyf]

Add Verr-sales for Versailles, Indiana.

Illinois, too. And it's where the big regional radar station is, so every TV weather report in Northern IL includes video from the "ver-sales radar".

We have lots of fun ones around here. A town on the Rock River next to Moline was named MY-lin because they had two watch companies that wanted to stamp "Milan" on the back of their watches.

Then there's OR-ee-un (Orion), vi-OL-a (Viola), lou-EYE-za (Louisa). And a fun one pronounced correctly, Preemption.

offer her writing skills to help research teams convert their geek speak into publishable prose

When my niece was very young, my SIL did this with the Dana Brain research people--without a science background--and got her name on a book about stress. It was very lucrative for someone without a post-grad degree.

She met my bro in her first job with Am Soc for Microbiology in DC--they were both copy editors. They didn't date until after she was fired in 6 mo.
