I wish you would stop calling me that.

Key reasons that you’re missing that I’m in favor of this exception:

1. my father worked his entire career with the Union Oil Corporation
2. Union oil was purchased by Chevron in 2005..
3. so I still own some chevron stock…

see, there’s two sides to every argument.

Princess Bride. I love a good documentary.

@kluurs said in It appeared in the feed at another site:

HOAs frequently have rules about the number and placement of Dougs within the community.

probably because they’re so rare and valuable. No one wants to be Doug-less.

wow, you must be really old.

But congratulations. I have really enjoyed retirement the two or three times I’ve done it.

this is where I saw it first.

interesting read and thanks for the reminder. I got the one year free extension on Windows 10, but had figured I’m throwing a computer or two away when it expired. Maybe I’ll play around with Linux first before I make a final decision..

I cut out caffeine just about entirely for about 30 years up until my early 60s . I started drinking coffee again pretty much when I retired. now I have a cup of coffee every morning and sometimes ice tea or a Diet Coke at lunch.(there’s no excuse for the Diet Coke. I give it up every few weeks too.)

. I have a hard cut off of 2 PM for caffiene of any sort, otherwise I do think it affects my sleep somewhat.

If I have a very early meeting or early morning drive related to my stupid job, I will occasionally go crazy and have 2 cups of coffee. The nice thing about being a flyweight coffee drinker is that 2 cups really perks me up for several hours when I need it sometimes.

Where to start? I got up at 8 AM, made myself a coffee and drove off to the gym . It was surprisingly crowded with a mixture of kind of scary-looking motorcycle gang types and elderly retired geezers. Weird- I don’t think of myself as a motorcycle gang type….

I spent about an hour this morning reviewing some work documents. Needed to review and approve the work plan for a new branch going in Hawaii in a few months and finish the minutes from last month board meeting. I’m still not clear why I’m the one who has to do the damn minutes, but I think it’s related to the fact that I’m the only one for whom English is their first language.

Wandered over to the corner pile for the sheet music for today’s habitual playing of the ragtime of the day. Today was Artie Matthew’s pastime rag number 5. it’s a nice slow one so I did not injure myself.

still to come ? there’s a local place where I can grab some tacos for lunch and then head over to Virginia Lake for a short hike.

I may watch episode four of Ken Burn’s American Revolution this afternoon if I have time . Heck I might even shower and shave at some point..

I love the holidays .

and they say romance is dead.

I think there’s 100% chance of her ending up being a blogger…

A simple case of mistaken identity. (“ I THOUGHT that cop was a prostitute… “)

To experience singing at its highest level, with the edgiest, most sophisticated new music and sexiest and coolest singers, the place to be is the ukulele group at the Reno adult education center…

unless you’ve sat around with a bunch of 70-year-olds, singing Gene Autry and Beatles songs have you really experienced music?

If the sandwich hits, you mustard acquit

Ken- always with a snappy comebacks. how did he come up with that in only two months?

Facing which way?

if it’s on TikTok, it must be true!
