I need some assistance.
I believe that the saying;
“Onto every parade, some rain must fall.”
Was created ‘whole cloth’, by me.
I’ve attempted to look it up, and all I can find is Longfellow’s
Rainy Day:
“Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.”
I also have found the phrase ‘Rain on your parade’.
My lovely bride claims she has heard it before. It’s just too pithy to be my creation…🤨
It’s shoot day! This is about all I can show you of Greg’s new show What Did I Miss?
Thank you for reminding me. I wanted to talk about our post-show hangout in Memphis and here it is:
Heads Up:
(Per Blue House Joe who found out from GG) Tom Shillue will be hosting "Gutfeld!" tonight (Mon) with Jamie Lissow, Kennedy, Charlie Hurt and Tyrus in the chairs.....
“Family is the answer”
I’ve had an epiphany.
It came to me writing an earlier post entitled ‘Family Man’.

Our issue with western birth rates cannot be solved with incentives of tax breaks or direct monetary enumeration.
It’s propaganda.
We’ve done our children a disservice. We’ve led them to believe that there are things more important in life than ‘family’.
I will state it plainly;
There is not now, nor ever has been anything in human history more important than family. No job, no possession is more fulfilling, more satisfying than family. You may not always agree or like them, but you will always have them. Family is our sole purpose on this planet. When we do not fulfill this obligation, we feel empty. Whether it was a choice, or the inability to accomplish, we have a hole in our souls.
When I see people showering love and attention on pets, I know it is the innate need to ‘parent’. Regardless if we have children or not, we need to ...
“Blisters!”
A new dice game (new to us), taught to us by @The_CINC ‘s Mama.
It’s a blast and can be played anywhere. You just need 3 sets of different colored dice, and a score sheet.
The game;
Blisters is a fun, simple dice game invented in 1987 by Tim Novak during a thru-hike on the Appalachian Trail (hence the name—his feet were covered in blisters!). It’s designed for 2+ players and uses exactly six dice (ideally in three pairs of different colors, like red, white, and blue, though any distinct pairs work).
The theme is “hiking” a trail by accumulating points (miles), often set to a real trail length like the Appalachian Trail’s ~2,145 miles. The first player to reach or exceed the goal wins.
How to Play Blisters
Setup
- 6 standard six-sided dice (three pairs of different colors recommended).
- Agree on a goal score (e.g., 2,000+ “miles” for a long game, or lower for shorter play).
- Players take turns in order.
On Your Turn
1. Roll all six dice.
2. Scoring dice = any dice showing the same ...
