When one is an authoritarian, totalitarian, communist … you don’t just stop a demonizing cigars. Hell … you can BAN anything you declare is bad. Pssst … marijuana is still cool though.
Except Cuba. I don’t imagine them banning cigars any time soon. Food maybe.
Hahahaha … perhaps all those starvin’ Gaza chil’ren should have offered her some of the yellow water they begged to get filled into their shiny new pots and pans?
I’m watching our evening news and hearing multiple stories about flood preparedness. Huh? Imagine that … 4 straight years of flood weather in CA.
It seems like just yesterday … Gov. Newsom declared CA is in the grips of a “never-ending drought” … because global warming. Our State bureaucrats even certified Gavin’s words.
Kenji, I’m wondering if you were at this show, or at least maybe frequented this venue back in the day:
Lynyrd Skynyrd – T For Texas – 3/7/1976 – Winterland (Official)
“ Headlining a bill that also featured the Outlaws” (two of their guitarists join in on the fun for this number). One of the greatest displays of guitar mastery you will ever see.
What a fantastic clip from the Winterland ‘Hotbox’. Sadly, that was during my college years of extreme poverty as I rarely had enough pocket change to afford a Top Dog … let alone a concert ticket.
Reminds me of Mr. Kruger … President of ‘Industrial smoothing’ … explain how their smoothing got carried away and smoothed a statue’s head down to the size of a softball.
Oh gheez, just seeing this now, after I posted the link above. You probably practically lived at Winterland in your youth. lol
Yes, in High School … but missed out on some phenomenal concerts during my college years of poverty. 🙁
I heard this on my local go-to HS radio station KVHS on my drive to Home Depot for another 10 bags of Mortar for the used brick entry walk and porch that I’ve been building. I’ve scavenged these really varied and interesting bricks from multiple past projects … including some really unique sand cast bricks that are wildly different from the typical wire cut bricks. But they all have nice age and ‘character’. Varied textures and colors. Yeah … it’s turning out REALLY nice … a diagonal basket weave with soldier course edging. Lots of diagonal cutting on my huge Rubi wet saw … Facepalm.
Yeah … another really cool tune from 1971 … the single most prolific and varied year of music in Rock history. IMHO.
We’re going to want to see pictures of this project…
Would you like my street address too?
I’ve lost nothing in California, don’t plan on ever visiting again; but I’ve got a couple bare spots in the yard that are crying out for brick paving. The price of that saw, though…
You’re obviously perfectionist about home improvement and repairs and I admire that. I can’t quite maintain the necessary attention to detail in my work.
So … the Trump Admin. sues CA redistricting claiming it was specifically and expressly racially biased … so the Dem’s found some activist Judges to copy their lawsuit in TX.
BTW Robert … that scene of Stewie and Brian stuck in the Canadian snow was hilarious. Some really unique clever writing with the eh suffix eh?
Fun fact: While I had heard of “Family Guy” before, I only started watching it a few months ago. I love the fact that it’s set in Rhode Island, where I now have some deep connections. IMO the Rhode Island accent is a milder version of the Boston accent. So, for example, when the wife, Lois, says her husband’s name, she doesn’t say “Peter” (as you or I would pronounce it). Rather, she says “Peet-tar”. I find this adorable.
Robert … I’ve always liked Family Guy’s outrageous and ironic writing. MacFarlane is a comedy genius! Tell me you’ve seen the ‘Ted’ movies … bloody hilarious. And Mila Kunis is rather easy on the eyes … grrrrrrrr.
“on-pace for 7,230 man games lost to injury in 2025-26. That’s more than last season (6,723), but less than 2023-24 (7,375) and 2022-23 (9,152). ”
Ah. It just goes with the ja…..er..job.
Thanks for that. I’ve been wondering why the San Jose Sharks SUCK so badly.
Far Left Globalist Pope Calls on US Bishops to Issue Historic Rebuke of President Trump’s Migrant Raids
“Oh, that’s right, the Catholic Church was making big dollars from the open border catastrophe. Total federal funding to Catholic entities for migrant-related services during the Biden years was approximately $2.3 billion.
Trump cut off that cash cow for the Church.” https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/11/far-left-globalist-pope-calls-us-bishops-issue/
If you can’t make any progress might as well go full crazy. Interesting that physicians are calling for an end of fossil fuel use which is causing so many health problems. Just imagine how healthy the world would be without energy?
