May we have our coffee please

[Texas Lawdog]

I fixed myself a ham and cheese firitatta for breakfast with an english muffin. I made another pot of Cawfee for myself and anyone else. No clue for lunch or supper tonight.

Arcey don't forget to tell them that when the news idiots finally did reveal the story it suddenly grew from an altercation with 4 or 5 people with maybe another 20 looking on to a mob of a 100 that attacked the reporter.

[Delmonico]

I've had people look over at me at a stop light and lock their door.  Never bothered me one bit, I figure it just makes me safer if I bother someone that bad. 

Speaking of that, I found out Lexie's Dad says he won't drop him off at our house anymore.  Seems I hurt the little twerps feelings because I yelled at him talked a bit harsh with him a couple of weeks ago.  He was supposed to drop her off at one of Andrea's friends house where Andrea was and didn't, said he couldn't afford the gas.  All I did was explain to him if you get a job and keep it for more than a few weeks you can afford a little extra gas.  (Remember I have a daughter and step-daughter named Andrea.)  My Andrea and her husband Scott were here eating supper with us when it happened.  Rita took Lexie's Dad out on the porch and shut the door. 

Scott is such a nice SIL, not only does he fix my computer when it needs it, he told me if I didn't have an extra shovel he'd go get his.  

Got corn and pumpkins and butternut squash planted today.  Last time for carrots also, I have 7 out of 3 packs planted so far, don't know why, planted one more pack today..  Thinned the kohlrabi and transplanted the extras and planted some more beets, plus weeded and watered stuff in.

Some people just can't handle the truth Del!

Mornin Ya'll, thanks fer Coffee Tom, much preciated. Leo, I always ask if the AC is crisp if I'm eating in a cafe cause half the time it is mushy on the top, when that happens it gets sent back. I usually ask "What don't ya understand about Crisp?". WM

[Texas Lawdog]

Thanks for the Cawffee this morning. Del, I had that same problem last year when I let my hair and beard grow for a year. The girls are stirring around in the back of the house. We had Chinese food last night. I am afraid that the cool weather is gonna leave today and the humidity will return.

[Silver Creek Slim]

Morning y'all.
Thanks fer the coffee, Tom.

'Tis 34 and sunny. High of 71.

Mornin'....

Arcey don't forget to tell them that when the news idiots finally did reveal the story it suddenly grew from an altercation with 4 or 5 people with maybe another 20 looking on to a mob of a 100 that attacked the reporter.

The question I’ve had, ‘n asked via ‘comments,’ is who knew ‘n threatened to make it public if the Pilot didn’t run it. The Drudge thing linked the article that was already written ‘n online – as an editorial…………..

As far as the crowd growin’, that was the reporters’ estimate. Ya gotta remember, they’re part of the same team reportin’ “Police have issued search warrants for four Twitter accounts seeking information about an April assault of two Virginian-Pilot reporters.”  The police don’t issue search warrants, that’s kinda basic. Sorta like all semi-auto long guns are AK-47s.

Ennyways………………….. Be runnin’ out that way inna bit. The shop ain’t far from the crime scene. Gonna tote my Marlin made AK-47 ‘n a Glock what goes ‘click, click, click’ when ya pull the trigger ‘n it’s empty with the slide forward – like on TV.

Moanin' all. Thanks for the coffee, LIT

Story seems like a muddled mess, Arcey. one piece I've heard was that the rock got thrown after somebody heard the lock on one of the car doors engage at the stop. it was game on after that

[mestiza letty]

Mornin' y'all,
Thanks for the cawfee LIT. 45 outside now and a high of 74.

[Texas Lawdog]

I just finished up the Kitchen cleanup for this morning and drinking another cup of Cawfee. The temp. is up to 70 outside. Victoria is asleep in the back bedroom on the bed. I'm gonna give the kitchen a little rest before I mess it up again. I think I have some left over frittata from yesterday, so breakfast is okay.  I had a fritos pie and a salad for lunch yesterday. No clue for lunch today.

[Leo Tanner]

Mornin, gonna be a bright bright sunshiney day.  Spent the mornin movin potted trees around, Lil thought the lemmon died but on close inspection it's jus' in a coma.

Had one a them cars that had the door lock button on the key chain, got accustomed ta usin it when I was walkin away from the car.  Went to a convenience store one night an hit the button, didn't notice the 2 brats sittin on the curb.  Afore I got ta the door of the place, girl brat made it clear she was offended that I did that an my car weren't so special.  Tolt her it was just a habbit an went in.  Come back out an one of them had keyed the thing.  A course they was nowhere ta be found, some folks take things too personal.

Havin ribs tanight.

I was wonderin why ya asked that, I've only had it home made.  Those resturant folks musta flunked English class, I woulda sent it back too.

[El Peludo]

Hey!!!  Cawfee hits the spot, as always; thanks fer havin' me.  Glad to see that y'all are doing well, apparently, for the most part, as far as it goes ------      We are still truckin' along.

Kids, and other people: the root cause of more white hair and ulcers than anything else, methinks.

We've got one of those same sort of situations going on right now, Del; dad/son got offended over something, and is not letting us see Bella for a while.  Hurts my heart, but what can I do?

I have always had the effect on most others of causing them to step back, or lock the door, or get off of the elevator when I got on - or get their back up because they thought I "dissed" them or they felt threatened.  I don't know how many of you have ever seen a picture of me, but I used to resemble Grizzly Adams; now, I look more like Santa Claus, but my demeanor has always been gruff, to put it mildly; so most folks tend to give me a fairly wide berth.  It has caused me no end of situations in my life, but that's who I am.  As Popeye once said: "I yam what I yam."  And people wonder why I act like a hermit most of the time. 

[Texas Lawdog]

EP, I had that same problem when I let my hair and beard grow for a year without cutting them. I seemed to intimidate people, especially women. I'm 6'3" and weigh over 300 lbs.

[Arcey]

The station wagon locks everythin' when ya pull it outta park

Clark Kent was on the village idiot, junior's show a couple day ago. He thinks Lois Lane lockin' the doors started it. Soon's she did the rock flew, he got out 'n the party started. Talk 'bout a Darwin candidate...........................

They're both 'come-heres.' He's from somewhere in Minnesota by way of South Dakota. She's from Dallas. I doubt either of 'em are awful familiar with the late evenin' culture 'round there.

The nationally infamous intersection:



I took that when I left the shop this mornin'. I don't know what it's like at 2300 hours these days. The area 'round it ain't never been too friendly to folks like me at that time ah night - even when I walked it with a uniform on. It doesn't look the same now as then but the same housin' projects are right on top of it just as they were then.

The whole problem the locals have with it was the delay in reportin' it 'n the politician-like excuses for why not. There's been an underlyin' distrust of the paper by many for quite awhile. This doesn't help.

Did find one thing real different. A street o'er that way I used as a short cut when I was on the street done been changed ta one way 'n it weren't the way I had intended ta go. Damned bus driver didn't have any sense of humor a'tall....................

[Texas Lawdog]

Arcey, I hated to hear that Lois Lane was from Dallas. Most folks from around here are reasonably smart, the stupid ones are usually the ones that make the headlines. They make the rest of us Texans look bad.  You can't fix STUPID!

[Four-Eyed Buck]

As I have it, TLD, she got out to try and rescue the guy, and they beat on her too. 911 calls are still restricted from the press.

Old sayin, ya can't unbake a cake.

[mestiza letty]

Prayers up for him and the family Slim... what's his name?

[Silver Creek Slim]

[mestiza letty]

Thanks...prayers are heard best with a name

[Lucky Irish Tom]

Mornin all, coffee's hot n ready!

Prayers up Slim.

[Texas Lawdog]

Thanks for the Cawffee, LIT. Slim, Sorry to hear about the passing of your kin folk. We had grilled chicken burritos for supper last night with some fresh verde hot sauce. We made another week, so I guess that it must be Pizza Friday. We're trying to wake up this morning. Moose is getting ready for school, Victoria is napping on the bed, and I'm drinking Cawffee and playing on the computer. Life is goof.
