I get the boob jobs and liposuction; but stay away from the face and PLEASE stop this puffy lip fad -- it's hideous. (before @DizRotus reads this, I am not getting these procedures, I meant I understand). sorry for the rant ... you can return to your regularly scheduled program. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just opened two boxes of clothes that I had stored and I'm pulling out all kinds of cool shirts that I forgot that I had ... it's like Christmas in August. Tomorrow, I'll open up the last of the sealed boxes to see what cool stuff is inside of it. In the previous box, I found a Venice Beach Choppers t-shirt, a Fender t-shirt, a gray wool trench coat and a full length leather trench coat. Being a single man, I don't pay attention to the rules of fashion, moisturizers, or laundry so I wanted to freshen up these items so I put them in the washer. That leather trench coat came out weighing a ton! I practically had to get a spotter to help me lift it out of the washing machine. Then I was confused at the full length gray coat because I thought it was hanging on the chair, so I checked and I have a waist length pea coat on the chair ... this one goes all the way to the ankle. They are very warm though. Not as warm as my Chinese army Yak jacket -- that thing goes below the knee and weights 10 pounds; but I've been walking in the snow and 19 degrees outside -- walked for over an hour and didn't get the slightest bit cold. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStewMan Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 since you cats are generally all hopped up on coffee, hopefully your brains are working better than mine. When I hover over my avatar, a box opens and it shows Post, Reputation, and Badges. What they heck are badges? Not that I want one; but I don't have any. And it says I have to get so many points before I'm at the next level (Currently level 8/9), I wasn't aware that we were earning points ... does points in this regard mean posts? 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea, no one has any badges it seems. I have no idea about any of it, I guess it was added with the latest change ? The little rocket ships are kind of strange, looks like it going up Floyd's nose. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've actually turned this into an routine surgery. Might have to do a lil mowing today before all that left-over rain from NYC hits. See you all are lockin down already. Get that "lil shed" buttoned up and stay safe down there. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will need to take down bird feeders and hummingbird feeders plus the 2 flags and 6 ferns. Then we may stay or leave, if it turns into a 3 we will probably leave. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Mornin' all Trying some different beans . Bought a bag of Bolivian beans. Had a name attached to it... wife tossed/put away the bag and can't remember exactly what the name is.... Appreciating the Mexican beans now. We like them more. We've had a "guest" the passed couple nights. A baby tarantula. Tried to coax it out the night before last, but, it was buggered from the cats chasing it and was uncooperative. It ran [they are fast, when they want to be] and hid under the china hutch. Made n appearance last night. Came right up to us while we were watching tv. Put an empty tobacco can over it, slid a piece of cardboard under the can and took it outside. Really surprised the cats dinna git it while it was indoors. They're slipping. We're looking at some tropical based rain early next week. A storm is headed up the Sea of Cortez/Gulf of California. Could be very wet or just cloudy, hot and humid... we'll see how it works out 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just no, instead of a can I would have put something large and heavy on it in a hurry, that is if it lived through all the chemicials I would regularly be pumping everywhere. OK who am I kidding, I wouldn't live where they have those things in the first place. nope 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
