A left-handed compliment
We’ve been trying to walk every day since the weather broke.
We’ve walked every day this month, and today we walked a total of 4.5 miles.
I had to do something, my fat ass creeped up to 260 again
Fortunately we found a dog park, off an improved walking path, in which to park
The first time we walked this path we parked in a shopping center at one end. Evidently the shopping Centre doesn’t appreciate that and issued me a $55.00 ticket.
Not a real citation, one from the company that manages the parking. I could get towed or booted if I park on one of their properties again, if I don’t pay.
Yeah…
Right…
They don’t make a ‘Denver Boot’ that big, and you’d need a tractor trailer to tow the Dude. Not that I’ll use any of your lots again purposely.
Yesterday, as we returned to dog park from our walk, I hit the men’s room.
On my way back to the where the truck was parked, I walked by a group of 7-8 city or county maintenance men. Thier white work trucks with the seal, backed in, parked in a row. They appeared to be just finishing the loading up of tools and were bullshiting, when one noticed me.
He turned to the other gentleman and said
“That’s what I’m going to look like when I get ‘old’!”
I must be getting soft.
There was a time when I would have quipped
“Who you calling old motherfucker?!?”
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
1. Roll all six dice.
2. Scoring dice = any dice showing the same ...
