October 7th

Well…still hurt everywhere and I can’t figure it out….I did figure out why my toes on my right foot hurt and it’s the damn weight machine again…whacked my foot on it the other day…something I’ve done more than once….but I can’t remember how I hurt my back…it’s not as bad today so I think it’s healing….had a pretty busy day yesterday with work and the grocery run and the bike ride keeping me busy until late in the aft and that is a good thing…today will not be busy at all with just the bike ride and pool, but I am looking forward to grilling some pork chops for lunch….back to not eating enough and I am feeling it today…or it’s the allergies again since they have been quite bad lately….I do need to remember to take something for it…I noticed that the key I have been using for the car for the past 4 years has a crack in it so I have to use the dealer cut one I paid 15 bucks for….I thought that the ignition lock was wearing out but the new key works just fine…probably should get a couple of new ones cut to have some spares….more later…

We’re all gonna die…or it’s a hoax…

Well…the more I see of life, the crazier it gets…with the hurricane bearing down on Florida, I just saw a short clip from Fox news with this idiot pointing to the map of it’s path into Florida and said “you’re all gonna die…and your children, too”…not sure if he was making a joke but it was still in really bad taste…but I guess it fits fox news pretty well….on the flip side of that, many of the right wing websites are parroting the idea that the hurricane is a hoax and conservatives shouldn’t believe the NWS since it is run by Obama and you can’t trust him…Jade Helm…something, something…..so, I will say to the idiot conservatives that read these sites…sure, stay there, there’s no hurricane coming…damn, you caught us at another liberal conspiracy…just walk right out to the beach to see for yourself….and don’t leave for at least a few hours since the liberals control the weather and you might catch them in their conspiracy…..and then you can go on Breitbart and expose them….geez….

This is too funny…

Well…it you needed any more confirmation that ole Trump has no relation whatsoever with the truth, you just need to look at a story on Raw Story today that says that his bankruptcy lawyers would only meet with him in pairs since they needed corroborating testimony with Trump lying to them and everybody else…all the time. Let that sink inĀ  a bit…even Trump’s lawyers knew that he was a pathological liar who would lie all the time so they had to cover their asses by having two lawyers in the room. I guess that’s really all you need to know about Trump…and it confirms the analysis done after the first debate that showed that Trump lied over 80% of the time during the debate…I wonder why anyone would ever do business with someone like Trump who can never be trusted…how could he be trusted to be president? The simple answer is he can’t….geez…

Trail stuff…and more…

Well…I wanted to throw the damn bike in the retention pond today with the pedal arm coming loose every 100 feet or so…not quite that bad but it came loose the whole ride and irritated the hell out of me….so, I worked on it again this aft and I hope it’s better…used a huge pipe to whack the damn thing to get it to seat and it appears to have helped…okay, enough of that…the grasshoppers are finally back in the clouds that they were supposed to be earlier in the summer…have never seen them come so late and I’m not sure why…it could be that it almost 80 and it’s going into the second week of October…I think the snakes are confused, too, since I counted almost 30 small ones on the trail yesterday and they should be bigger and heading for hibernation…should probably do some research on that in case this is normal and I’m just missing it….hmmm…..

October 6th

Well…yesterday…hmmm…got a few things done but felt lousy all day and I’m pretty sure it’s just an allergy flare…but I whacked my hand working on the bike and it is still bruised and hurts today….and my back has decided to hurt again…not bad but more annoying than anything…geez…do I sound like a geezer or what? Didn’t work out yesterday so I have to do that in a few minutes and then out on the bike…haven’t figured out the bolt yet but it has less urgency since I decided to buy a new one by the end of the month….just tired of working on it to keep it going….I do have lots of work to do around here again today and I hope it won’t make the back worse but it probably will…it hurts on the wrong side and that is weird…oh, well…going to stop talking about that….more later….

The VP debate…

Well….running really late on this one today since I have been quite busy with stuff around here and I don’t really feel that hot…forgot to take some painkillers before the bike ride and now everything hurts…but, that’s not what this one is about….I didn’t watch much of the VP debate last night since I went out to have a couple instead and I really am getting tired of politics right now. But, I did read the analysis on all of the news sources this morning and came away with one thing…that Pence is just as big a liar as Trump…with one site showing that over 70% of what Pence said were lies…right in line with the Donald who did the same in his debate…and I do have to fault Tim Kaine for not calling him on the biggest one…that the Trump foundation and the Clinton foundation are equal…as you’ve read here, the Trump foundation is nothing but an illegal slush fund that Donald uses as his personal piggybank while the Clinton foundation uses almost 90% of what they collect to help people around the world…almost half a billion and counting. One thing that did happen is that ole Pence did start to throw Trump under the bus by trying to make the debate all about Pence…and the Donald was a little irritated about that…poor baby….one thing I wish Kaine would have done is to highlight the core of hatred for women that Pence has and his record of promoting discrimination against the LGBT community…really easy hits that should have bee made…geez…

October 5th

Well…it was an October morning, near the carousel…I met a lithe young beauty and we talked there for a spell…yeah, that line from Donald Fagen just popped into my head when I wrote October 5th…kind of an odd day yesterday with C in town and stopping in to chat for a few and then out with G for a couple late…got to use my headlights for the first time in quite a while and that was cool…and leaving the top down out and back was cool, too….did have to replace the bolt in the pedal arm on the bike with the original one since the threads on the new one just self destructed…and the weird thing is that the old one didn’t come loose the entire ride…weird….have lots to do around here today so I guess I should get at it…need more coffee first….more later…

More Trump foundation…

Well….yeah, I know…have been doing too much on Trump lately and I promise this will be the last one this week…or, I’ll try to promise it but he is just so ridiculous and it is fun to pick at the idiot…the latest one that just broke is more of the self-dealing that has been rife in his “foundation” since it’s inception. It seems that to get invited to speak at repub gatherings, ole Trump gave “donations” to the organizations that were sponsoring them….yep, they hated him so much that he had to pay to get to speak in front of repubs….and he got personal benefit from it which is against the law. I just don’t understand why Trump gets to just keep on going when one of the myriad scandals of his would have torpedoed any other candidate….there is blood in the water, though, and now maybe it will mean the end of Trump…I sure hope so…geez…

October 4th

Well…..not sure what is going on but the past couple of days have been a struggle to just endure them….and today looks the same or at least it has started out that way…I did have a dream about cats and goldfish last night and I’m not sure where that came from…it was weird enough to be enjoyable but it wasn’t….hmmmm….and I am sore everywhere again and I am getting really tired of it….I did start saving for the new bike and I hope to have enough by the end of the month to order a new one…but, they are out of the one I want so I have to wait anyway….not much to do today…I do have errands to run this morning and then I should clean this aft and I think I will…need to accomplish something….more later….

Trump Foundation update…

Well…I am laughing just a little with the latest news on the illegal slush fund called the Trump Foundation…just this morning, the AG of NY filed a cease and desist order telling the foundation that it can no longer solicit donations since it has never filed the correct paperwork or financial disclosures necessary in NY. So, here we go again…another shady deal from the Donald to go with the hundreds of others he has done across the world…now, the AG just needs to follow up on the illegal use of the foundation’s funds for personal gain by the Donald….the response of the Trump campaign was typical…not disputing that they didn’t follow the law and then personally attacking the AG for doing his job…this won’t end well for Donald…
