I had a hankering for wine today.  Bought a case.  I'm 1 bottle in so far.

John Wick 2 and 3 are still decent, stand-alone, dumb action flicks.  But if you're heavily invested in the story line, it gets a bit thin in both of them.  But since I just watch action flicks for their dumbness, I still enjoyed them.  I definitely don't think they were as bad as the Matrix 2...

If Lisa Simpson had run, on either side, in the last 3 presidential elections, I'd have voted for her.

Just wait until you hear her fake baritone voice.  It's....unsettling.  Especially once you hear the leaked recording of her normal voice.

Yeah...it was 85 degrees and sunny at about 6 pm yesterday.  I get a Dark Sky alert on my phone that says Tornado Watch.  WTF?  I look at the radar, and there's a small line of storms coming southeast from Indiana.  At about 10 last night, all hell broke loose.  I slept through most of it, but...

I would recommend a Sig P365 as a carry gun.  Very compact with a high magazine capacity.

I was at my local gun store the other day (not shopping...inquiring about an NFA transfer), but that is, by far, the emptiest I have ever seen the shelves and walls of that store.  The cases and gun racks on the walls were, at best, 25% full where normally they are completely packed and...

From what I can tell, the entire months of March and April have been cancelled in the USA.

The funniest meme I've seen though this whole mess is, "Due to panic buying, Wal-Mart will be opening a 2nd register."

I don't have coronavirus...or the flu.  Doc says its probably just a run-of-the-mill virus.  Still not going to work the rest of the week. In other news, the NCAA tournament will be played without fans in the stands.  I think that is going to affect the players used to having lots of background...

All the Minute Clinics around here have a 2+ hour wait for walk-ins.  The first appointment I could get was for 2:30 (3 hours after I made the appointment).  I wonder if that is related to COVID or if I just live amongst a bunch of sick mfers.

I just witnessed possibly the stupidest thing I've ever seen.  I get in the drive-thru at my local Wendy's.  I see a car parked in the drive-thru, short of the window, directly adjacent to the side-door into the restaurant.  It's one of those"captive" drive-thrus, where there is a...

I am coming down with some cold/flu symptoms.  I just told my boss I'm bugging out of here early today and not coming back in the rest of the week (skipping a company meeting tomorrow).  He was fine with that and told me that what I was proposing is what would be presented at the meeting (i.e...

Then Kentucky swoops in and says "hold my beer."  They declared a state of emergency after the 1st confirmed case.  And Berea College just announced that they are cancelling the rest of the semester and sending all students home from the dorms.

I would also check the hot-surface igniters on the oven burners. @leggo PE is correct...new appliances suck.  I don't see any old ranges with infinite switches (electrical) or gas valve controls fail.  I see all sorts of digitally-controlled ranges catching fire because the controls were...

Louisville got Google Fiber.  They did a lot of the infrastructure work, and a lot of customers were already getting service.  Then Google Fiber pulled out.  Cancelled all current customers.  Said "keep the ****." And left.  I wasn't a customer, yet.  But I'm pissed because I would have dropped...

I drive a Model S named Edison.

An angry beaver (both kinds) is kinda like the Wu-Tang Clan in that it ain't nuttin' to **** with.

NAFI - National Association of Fire Investigators. Because they are responsible for the CFEI (Certified Fire and Explosion Investigator) credential that is pretty important to my job.
