Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Uncut

Yesterday the temps in Central Pa hit 76 (F) and I took the dogs for a walk.  They loved it.   And everybody else was taking their dogs for a walk.  This is fine... as long as they keep their distance.  Like people, not all dogs get along.  I don't know what it is... maybe something about the way their butt smells, but some dogs have an instant dislike for other dogs.  This is something I don't worry about when we go for a walk at Adams-Ricci Park because dog owners there will warn you.  Walking around my neighborhood?  That is not the case.

I did a little yardwork yesterday, but not much.  Believe it or not, we're still in winter.  The upcoming forecast has quite a few days where our highs are only going to be in the mid - 40's (F).  

This year I'm putting my tomato plants in the ground.  The pots I used last year were only good for peppers.  Looks like I'm going to have a lot of peppers this year.

In case you have seen this vid, click on it.  Simply amazing.  Filmed in a bowling alley, bar, restaurant, and theater up in Minneapolis as a way to drive up attendance now the the Pandemic appears to be winding down, this uncut drone footage has grabbed the attention of film makers in Hollywood.  This is a Wow moment.


I only watched a portion of Biden's speech last night, but I was impressed as was, I suspect, most of those who watched him.  This is how you steer a country back from extremism.   There's something so human about having a president simply talk to you, one adult to another adult.  Americans are taking notice.  I'm going to repeat Dave's axiom here.  A popular president can move the country to either the left or to the right, an unpopular president will always move it in the opposite direction.  This is how we make America great.

  1. It was just nice to see someone in control, who wasn't blaming people for the bad, or taking credit for the good.

    1. And, not surprisingly, his approval rating keeps climbing. Everybody, except Republicans, like Uncle Joe.

  2. It was so nice here yesterday....I did two laps around the lake...almost a 12 mile walk/run. My legs and ass feel it today.

  3. For a second there I thought you were sharing some intimate details with us. But alas, no. Tease!
    And I did watch Uncle Joe. He, of course, spoke like an intelligent adult. I went down the rabbit hole reading what the cultists are saying. From teleprompter (duh) to earpieces controlled by Kamala to enhancing drugs. Fascinating.
    And Huntley sent me that video of the bowling alley. Hollywood quality.

    XOXO

    1. They were all employees. Those playing customers took their masks off for the filming, those playing themselves kept them on.
