One of the best: no family, no turkey, just my girl friend and good wine.

I was planning to visit my Mom, but started sneezing and coughing a couple days ago, so I bought a fifth of E&J cough syrup and have been slowly administering. :)

Still trying to decide on Chef Boyardee pizza kit or pork chops/Mac-n-cheese/stuffing/asparagus for supper.

Next door neighbors have been putting new siding on their house for like three weeks now, they are using cement board. I didn't know that was a thing. They tend to lock yappy dog in garage, cement board ought to cut down on yapping that makes its way through my windows, so I'm happy about that. :)

LOL, 1985, New Years Eve. Started out with a 6 pack and a bag of weed. At some point someone showed up with a half gallon on of JW Dant 100proof corn likker. I went to pee and the next thing I knew I was in Someone Else's house, alone. Went staggering down the street to find them (they only lived two houses apart), and gave up after like 15 minutes. I wound up at the elementary school, staggering, slinging snot. There were a couple 13 year old girls hanging out there, too. I offered them a snort of Dant, they turned it down. Good for them! :)

Spent the day with all our children and grandchildren -- twenty total including sons-in-law.

Plus an old friend who never married; we almost always invite him for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. He contributed a box of chocolate and box of 00 buckshot.

We had a proper feast with all the traditional Thanksgiving fare. Most of my daughters can cook pretty well, but one can barely boil water. I made the gravy with garden-grown sage.

When my youngest daughter (recently married) arrived, I asked her if she had anything new to be thankful for? Knowing exactly what I meant, she answered "Yes, I'm thankful I'm not pregnant."

So you didn't go on a killing spree? Good for you, man! Don't worry about what Alex Jones thinks of you! :)

The only killing sprees I perpetrate involve fire ants dying in large numbers. Last month my front yard had about 300 mounds in it. Thanks, Texas.

A magazine publisher admits it was 'racist' of him to get a white man to read out a Black female professor's essay, using a stereotypical accent

No Emmy Award for you this year!

I'm struggling to make a connection between fire ants and the brouhaha surrounding that offended black manatee?

Is Social Justice supposed to make sense?

Wonderful news on beating the cancer, just wonderful!

Yesterday, my big black Lab/Rottie mix friend was helped across that Rainbow's Bridge when a large, cancerous mass was discovered on/in his spine, which had caused him to go wobbly for the past several days.

I'm having a tough time accepting/adjusting to his absence, he was only six years old and was supposed to outlive me.

Thanks, but I've passed the puppy stage and need a adult, mature pooch to keep me company.
