Tonight, some astronomy and a Dead Guy Ale and a Macanudo Inspirado.

And some live tom petty
A friend of mine asked me how much I’ve spent on cigars over my lifetime…I told her that that topic shouldn’t be discussed in polite company.

Do you have e a lack of dark sky problems where you are?
@ Aussie Infidel:
I have some really nice filters from thousand oak optics. I can make it dark
@ Aussie Infidel:
No, I work with prolly 80% women.
Which sometimes isn’t too bad.
@ Aussie Infidel:
Mrs coldwarrior would never ask that question. Ignorance is bliss
@ coldwarrior:
Have you seen any of the Ally Venable videos I’ve posted? This one’s a whole set that was streamed live. Not bad for an 18 year old

Post away!
I’m cooking some rock star carne.
That’s the first time I’ve had this style Macanudo. It’s great. Not their typical classic cigar.
Woooohooo!!! The valley is starting to light up with fireworks!

Mrs. Federalist seldom asks how much the tools I acquire cost. She gets nice furniture every once in a while from them, or good metal shelves so it all works out.

Greetings and salutations y’all.
My wife is out of town with my daughter until Tuesday .
I told my BFF Bill that I am going to do anything that I want. Yeah baby!
So Last night after I dropped them at the airport I had dinner, the a bourbon and a cigar on the deck with the dogs.
Hmmm, that’s what I do when she is home.
But tonight I am going to a restaurant for the annual cousins dinner.
Hmmm, I would do that anyway with my wife.
Ok, there is tomorrow night. But it’s Sunday, and you know work the next day.
Then Monday night , but who does anything on Monday night?
Then I pick them up Tuesday.
But, I could have done anything!

I took the family on a summer holiday to Cyrpus and smoked my favorite cigars– Habanos Romeo y Julieta (No. 2 or 3) which run about €6 a pop. I enjoyed them way too much me thinks.

(Hey, I’m a former Rock Star, we know these things) Filling a bathtub with baked beans and having a threesome is far more dangerous than you might imagine. (Not suggesting that I have ever done anything like that, just sayin… )

You didn’t do “Nothing”, you did something, a very peaceful, stress free something. Such somethings are rare and to be cherished, they are like fine whiskeys or cigars, an acquired taste that once developed grows into a tremendous appreciation.

I’ve been running around all day, so I haven’t kept up/caught up with whatever is going on. But I did catch this headline, speaking of irony
Lesbian activists block Pride in London march to protest against trans women
One of the activists shouted: ‘A man who says he’s a lesbian is a rapist’
Logic.
One of the things I was running around doing was picking up my new car. The Heathen Beagles no longer have to crawl over each other in back seat, they’ve got their own ‘pad’ back there. Done.

@ eaglesoars:
Last year our internationally known gay pride parade was brought to a complete halt by Black Lives matter. They had banned the police from marching in the parade, so no grown ups to monitor the already wildly confused.
@ yenta-fada:
So we’re going to make murder, which is already Illegal… more illegal? If you kill someone because you’re a vile despicable human, it’s less serious than killing them because you’re a vile despicable racist?

So Ocasio-Ortez, the econ wunderkind, is pretty weak n the history stuff, too. She wants to invest trillions in green energy
“The Green New Deal we are proposing will be similar in scale to the mobilization efforts seen in World War II or the Marshall Plan,”
Sweetie, the Marshall Plan wasn’t a ‘mobilization effort’

@ eaglesoars:
Did she say where these “trillions” would come from?
Or explain how spending more money on failed technology is going to make it work?
lobo91 wrote:
In a previous inteview she cited pgms we’re spending trillions on that we could spend on her pet projects instead. I don’t recall all of the ones she wanted to defund but the military was in there. She speaks as tho she doesn’t understand how money works.

I just got a call from Macker. He’s asked me to pass this on as he just doesn’t have the energy for it anymore.
The cancer had spread to his liver and now to the kidneys. His doctors gave him the news today and they are moving him to hospice on Tues.
For those who don’t know him personally, his name is Josh Spencer.
He’s not in pain, he’s just tired. And sad. This has happened a lot faster than any of us expected.
Prayers are still needed and welcome, just what is prayed for will be a bit different.
And with that, I’m going to bed. nite.

Actually, I think this is more sinister. When the anarchy continues, this is going to make citizens necessarily taking the law into their own hands federal felons. This is very Bolshevik when you look at it from this perspective — note they only use the word lynching, not as a race-based offense. The Bolsheviks did the same thing, inspired anarchy and chaos and made it a crime for the regular person to defend themselves.

Please relay, if you can, that Josh is in my prayers, as well as his family and those close to him.
Poor Macker. Prayers for you mate.
Eagles… do you know if Macker is a Catholic by any chance? If so do let me know and I can get some reinforcements praying as well namely the Carmelite nuns ( a closed order) to offer Macker some masses to ease his way
Good morning. Six of the boys have been extracted from that cave! It seems like it happened in the last twenty minutes.
@ eaglesoars:
My heart aches for Josh, but given what I have been through in the last 3 years, I simply cannot process this. Please forgive me. He is in my prayers, be assured of that. But beyond that I cannot process it.

@Macker/Josh.
I’m shocked to hear your terrible news. The last update I saw was pretty optimistic. I don’t know what to say. I’m just so sorry.
You are a very brave man. Please write to us if you feel inclined to do that at any time.

I wish I could send some of the best BBQ in the country.

It’s not what the trillions are spent on per se. It’s the fact that they were spent, and the more wasteful the better. It’s all about socialists crashing the US economy!
It really is as simple as that mate!

Just stopped by to post this. In the event you were wondering whether or not Paul Ryan is a pig, wonder no more.
Paul Ryan will abide by Ohio State findings in Jim Jordan scandal
House Speaker Paul Ryan called the recent allegations raised against Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, “serious” in a statement on Friday.
“These are serious allegations and issues,” a spokesman for Ryan told USA Today in an email. “The university has rightfully initiated a full investigation into the matter. The speaker will await the findings of that inquiry.”
In case you’ve missed some details, some of Jordan’s accusers are convicted felons and ‘information’ is being solicited publicly by Perkins-Coie, the law firm implicated in the Trump-Russia collusion scam, who will be ‘sharing’ anything they’re given with the ‘investigators’ at the university.
On top of that, Jordan’s nephew, also a wrestler, was killed in an auto accident a few days ago.
ok, off to bed.
one day we will finally beat cancer. we will.
prayers Macker.
