I used to eat out of boredom, and I gained a lot of weight. Then I took up the guitar during Covid. Now when I get bored, and tempted to eat something, I pick up the guitar and start playing. Soon I forget that I was bored, and forget about eating. I’ve lost 85 pounds, and I’m still losing.

I got a high quality product here. Where do I sign up?

Exactly. It’s not young vs old, black vs white, left vs right, etc. The ONLY enemy are the WEALTHY, and we will never have peace in this nation and this world until we force the Sociopathic Oligarchs and the Transnational Corporations to serve our people, our nation, and the world, and not just themselves.

How you doin’?

Are you seriously asking that about a 20/24 yo couple getting into bed for the entire night? Were you ever that age?

If sex was off the table, I wouldn’t even go through with it. What’s the point? I’d just rather sleep alone, and avoid the entire night of blue balls.

I can’t believe nobody has said Coco. I dare anyone to get through the end without at least a tear or two.

I knew a guy who said “I’ve had kidney stones, and I’ve been shot, and the kidney stones hurt worse.”

Underrated, but terrific epic.

I liked the basic premise that the East Coast of America would be controlled by the Nazis, and the West Coast by the Japanese, with the middle being a No-Man’s Land, controlled by factions of American rebels.

At least, that’s how I remember it. The size of America would make it difficult to fully control from coast to coast.

Nobody wants to get frisky with the parents in the next room. Grow up.

Get a bidet, and it makes it easier to put a day or two between showers.

Hello, Little Cows!

If you already have a good computer, that much money could outfit an entire home music recording studio with decent gear, especially if you buy good used gear, which is easily available:

A couple of good super-budget guitars from Harley Benton (a Strat clone and a Les Paul clone), for about $300 (new).

A good Yamaha acoustic guitar, $100.

A bass, $75.

An interface, to get the music into the computer, $50.

A basic MIDI controller, $30.

A good electronic keyboard with weighted keys, $100.

Microphone, $75.

Headphones, $50.

Electronic drum machine, $50, or use the pads on the MIDI controller, or voices on the keyboard.

DAW - Reaper is free, and works great.

That’s approximately what I spent on my studio, and everything works great, and sounds terrific…

They already have them that you can carry in your pocket.

I can detect gravity without a device:

Jump off a roof. If you hit the ground, you’ve detected gravity.

The classic answer is La Bamba. Love the song, no idea what the lyrics are.

Not the hockey trophy.

It’s one of those big 40 oz insulated cups with a handle, lid, and straw. Put in some ice and cold water, and it will stay cold for 24 hours. They were made famous by the Stanley Tool company. The Stanley ones are about $45, but now there are lots of cheaper knockoffs. I got mine at Aldi for $13.

They’ve become an entire industry in themselves. They even make accessories for them. I saw a short news story on the wildly decorated house of a woman who designed a special purse that had two compartments, one for her stuff, and one for her big tumbler. She made them in all sorts of color combinations, and had them all displayed on shelves in her basement office. They’ve become extremely popular, and have made her rich.

Get one. They work great. I carry mine with me everywhere I go. When I leave a fast food place, I always fill my empty cup with ice, and dump it in my tumbler when I get in the car.

I’ll bet that’s way more about the “Stanley Cup” tumbler than you thought existed.

My favorite beverage is a glass of ice water. Friends are always offering a beer or a soda, and all I want is a tall glass of ice water.

Now I carry a big Stanley cup of ice water everywhere I go.

I know two people who refuse to drink water, and even say that they HATE water.

Don’t eat cats, that’s gross.

Giggity!
