catalina dressing

Posted on December 7, 2022 | Leave a comment

The Kraft Catalina was on sale and I wanted to try it. I didn’t think I’d like it, but it’s OK. The Olive Garden is nearly empty.

the news

Posted on December 7, 2022 | Leave a comment

When I read the news, I mostly want it to be written by:

— military analysts
— current and former government officials
— nameless Western officials
— Washington think tanks

pocket reader app top 5%

Posted on December 6, 2022 | Leave a comment

I assume that almost nobody is using the pocket app, so every year I’m in the top 5%.

It formats things so I can see better to read, and when I’m away from mobile data, I load it up with things to read offline.

church gig then beer communion

Posted on December 4, 2022 | Leave a comment

I went to the church gig where my spouse performed today.

The other pics are our private beer communion later on in the day. Usually at this Mexican restaurant I have a Dos Equis draft, but today I had a Modelo. It didn’t appeal. It had a mildly nasty Schlitz flavor to it. It sure made me feel drunk, though. Maybe that’s the appeal.

whatsapp

Posted on December 3, 2022 | Leave a comment

Many of my friends in those “sensitive” countries insist on using WhatsApp, and I won’t do it.

Y’all need to buck up over there. 😆

I don’t want that Hoover on my mobile even though they’re all Hoovers.

No offense if you use WhatsApp. It’s popular AF. I’m just grinding my little ol’ ax.

Nearly midnight, and I’m thinking about pouring a shot (of liquor) down my throat.
