A couple of thoughts…

Well….yeah, I know….no political one yet today but I had a thought that I wanted to share…how do you forget how to use something that you’ve used for 15 years? Let me explain….I have been having problems getting the hose on my little air compressor to seal on the bike tires for a  couple of months now and I had even been looking for another one to replace it since I thought the attachment was worn out….but yesterday, while I was airing up the tires on the car in a spring ritual that I do every year when I switch them, it sealed perfectly fine without putting any extra pressure when I attached it…so, when I finished that up, I tried putting it on the bike tires and it sealed up perfectly fine….so, how could I have forgotten how to use the thing after using it for 15 years? Not sure but it was nice to figure it out….oh, the second thought…I wonder why my t-shirts always fail in the right arm? I have a bunch of them with the same hole….it’s popped into my head that my sweat is like the blood from the beast in “Alien”….acid that eats through anything…..yeah, you know I’m weird….

I have a question….

Well….with almost all of the snow gone on the trails, I have a question that popped into my head yesterday…with all of the people out there walking their dogs, and some of them even cleaning up after them…why would they do that and then just leave the bag either on the trail or next to it? I noticed that a couple of days ago…that there are many, many abandoned bags out there and I wonder why they would pick up the waste and then not put it in the trash? After all, there are trash cans along the trail just for that purpose….and the waste would break down easier if they just left it… have always wondered why they pick the stuff up when it is in the grass….hmmm….oh, well…..

April 3rd

Well…running a little early today and I am getting tired of getting up so damn early….one of these days I’m really going to sleep in at least until 7….or even 8…that would be nice…slept okay last night and I don’t feel that badly today other than I’m sore almost everywhere…probably from the long bike ride yesterday….not sure if I’m going to go out today with the temps dropping all day and that will put me into full thermasuit if I go….or I can just wait until it gets warm enough in about a week or so….not sure if I can do that…didn’t get much done yesterday but, if I don’t ride today, I’ll have to do something so I don’t feel guilty….I did get the shower cleaned yesterday so the rest of the bathroom shouldn’t take long….more later….

Boycott WWMT channel three…

Well…with the FCC not doing it’s duty to ensure that news isn’t turned into propaganda, that is exactly what has happened with a company called Sinclair. This company has been buying up tv stations across the country and has been turning them into trump propaganda machines by forcing local anchors to read from the “fake news” script and lie to the people they are supposed to serve. We have one of those stations here in West Michigan, WWMT, or channel three from Kalamazoo that is joining in…so, what we need to do is hit them where it hurts, in the pocketbook by boycotting this un-American company that is doing Russia’s work in undermining our democracy…and the person who wrote the script that the news anchors are forced to read  used to work for the Russian propaganda channel RT…that should be enough for anyone who wants to help protect this country…boycott….

This is so ironic…

Well…as we all know, Jeff Sessions is a liar….he constantly lied about his contacts with the Russians during the campaign, and he also lied about the meeting where Papadopoulos told him that he could set up a meeting with the Russians and Sessions lied that he “pushed back” on the whole idea. Remember that the investigation into  trump’s conspiracy with the Russians started when Papadopoulos got drunk in a London bar and told an Australian diplomat that the Russians had “dirt” on Hillary in the form of thousands of e-mails…and, in an ironic twist, the same thing happened with Papadopoulos this past Friday night in Chicago….where he was out drinking with his wife and revealed to a stranger that “Sessions encouraged him” to find out anything he could about the hacked e-mails that a Russian operative had mentioned to Papadopoulos. This means that Sessions is still lying to everyone and that Mueller knows about it…how does that feel, Jeffey? Next stop…federal prison for perjury and for lying to congress….couldn’t happen to a bigger hypocrite….

April 2nd

Well…up early again today and I’m sure I don’t like it….it just gets me started too soon and then I have to try to fill time until the temp comes up enough to ride the bike…I probably should just write this week off with it going to be so cold all week and just hunker down and survive it….slept okay last night but still feel a little off today but I’m not sure if it’s the bug or not…will probably have to wait a while to see how bad it’s going to be…didn’t get much done yesterday but a little cleaning and I’m not planning on doing much today…have an errand to run and Michigan plays later but I wonder why they have to start the game so late….probably won’t get through it but I think I’ll try…I’m hoping my back will reset itself sometime today…it has been pretty painful the past couple of days and that is annoying…more later…..

Think I’ve figured it out….

Well….as you can see from the last part of the last one, I’m trying to figure out why my brain is not working as well as it should be and I think I’ve figured it out….not, it’s not that I’m getting old…although I am…in the past hour I’ve started to feel really warm and have also started coughing so I think it’s a bug….have been really lucky this year so far with not being sick hardly at all and certainly not having the flu…but, I just read somewhere yesterday that there is another flu resurgence that is happening now here in Michigan….sure hope  that is not what this is….but, I do feel kinda crappy so I guess we’ll see where this goes….

Is this treason yet?

Well…if you’ve been reading the news lately, you would have seen that the idiot trump made a huge deal out of expelling 60 Russian diplomats in response to the chemical weapon attack in England a few weeks back….but, it was revealed today that “high ranking WH officials” have told the Russians that it is no big deal and the “door is open” for those expelled to be replaced by other spies as soon as the heat dies down….is this treason yet? How about it repubs? Is faking punishment for attempted murder to keep the Russians happy treasonous?  I just really wonder what the Russians have on trump…especially with the new directive from trump to everyone in the government to never, ever criticize Putin….how much more of this crap do we have to take?  Okay, this one is not as lucid as I would have expected….not sure why, things are just not flowing…so, I’ll end here and maybe come back later to polish it up or do another one….more later…

April 1st

Well…almost forgot to come here and do this one today….felt that I was missing something and just figured it out…slept okay last night but don’t feel all that hot today so maybe I’ll take the day off and just veg it out….not even going to get on the bike today since the high is going to be 34 and I am not going to get back into full thermasuit again…I did get some things done around here yesterday and I may continue that today if I feel like it….don’t need to cook anything so it looks like an easy one for the first day of the month…Michigan made it into the championship game tomorrow night so I’ll have to get a nap in the aft to make it though since the game doesn’t start until after 9….not much to do today…waiting for soccer to start at 8:30 and still waiting for the coffee to work so I think I’ll get another cup and read some news….more later…
