Hey, big boy, I've been putting together a long string of meme images that was supposed to be here, maybe 20 or so, with some text headlines included.

I hit he go button and got an error message that said something like "Error in line one of comments" and something that looked like a HS algebra equation. It's happened once before.

If I knew diddly-squat about computers, I should have tried to cut & paste the message so you could see what the hell was happening.

I tried to go back to recover it and it was gone along with the error message.

Yesterday was Jim Lodwick's 79th birthday.

I don't suspect he's still with us.

Last I heard from him before he went dark, was that he sold everything and was moving to OK with family since Pam, his wife was gone.

I miss him.

Not to belabor the issue, but having a way to hyperlink things would be cool, as well as an edit feature.

I'm getting pretty impatient as an old fart, I ain't got time to proofread. LOL

I don't know why that posted twice other than the left-click on my stupid mouse has been acting up again.

After my appoint with Mr. Flowbee, I put the 1.5" thick styrofoam cover over my downstairs A/C unit, which is just a 10,000 BTU casement window unit in a hole in the wall.

A real HVAC system wasn't in the budget as the era of Carter wore on 47 years ago. I was lucky to get a loan from my mother at only 10% (half the going rate) to build it.

The furnace was a 35,000 BTU gas wall furnace that liked to vent all the heat out the flue. I'm using a 30,000BTU vent-free gas fireplace now. There's some electric backup, I haven't used that since NG prices went crazy. I don't remember which dope made that happen, probably the gay Kenyan.

This house ain't much, but it's mine less the property taxes. I lost my good house, actually a villaminium, in the divorce. Shit happens.

Chuck Schumer's 'wife.' NOT A JOKE!

A woman with shoulder-length brown hair wearing large black-framed glasses smiles slightly while standing with arms crossed in front of wooden bookshelves filled with books. She has gold hoop earrings and a gold butterfly pin on her white blouse under a black blazer. A black Apple Watch is visible on her left wrist.

That's pretty much how look when I break out the Flowbee, minus the earrings, glasses, watch and sport jacket.

You rather watch Sassy Tullahassee or this fat guy?

That could be me except for the white hair and no beard and that my crippled-up hands couldn't fan a six-gun or take the recoil from a 12-gauge.

I guess the cowboy shooting is 10 shots from a lever action, five shots from 2 SA handguns and 4 shots from a double barrel shotgun.

A hand-drawn illustration shows a gray tabby kitten standing on its hind legs, facing forward with wide sad eyes and a downturned mouth. Red blood-like spots appear on its white underbelly, paws, and ears. The kittens fur is detailed with stripes and whiskers, and it has a small tail. Text overlay reads Dont hurt me, Im just looking for food. Cats Lovers watermark is at the bottom right.

I don't mind feral cats so much, they keep the mouse/rat population down. My city clips an ear so you can identify them. I guess they're neutered/spayed and released. What I don't like is people feeding them, trans-adjacent Satan and his 'girlfriend' did that and all it did was draw coons, groundhogs, possums, etc.

He wasn't a 'horrible' looking gal, but I didn't figure out what was going on until the real man started coming unhinged and threatening to kill me.

I ran into this problem a couple years ago at one of Rainman's properties. There's better info out there, this was the only EweToob I found.

I guess it's a common failure. The electronics are powered by the thermocouple voltage which is very low.

Sling Blade's massive water heater meltdown didn't have one of those on it.

I just texted him that I'd make this problem go away. I think he feels shame for not being able to do it for himself.

I just spent an hour on the phone with his mother, this event needs to end and I can make it happen. She has keys, I don't.

Another double hit. I think it might be my flakey mouse. I took it into my kitchen and took the batterys out and did some blowing and some wiping like if Kim was here.

Maybe it's ok, maybe it's not. I don't care much.

Marla wanted to know how Kim felt about me messing around with ex-girlfriends and wives.

Doc doesn't have to worry about me. My mouse needs a funeral I think.

There's going to be a 'celebration of life' to my mouse and keyboard at my trash can next time I'm vertical.

They served me well. They were purebloods, no clot-shots.

Mr. Mouse has sadly passed away. Mr, Keyboard, Mr. Mouse's lifelong gay partner is going to commit suicide. Mr. Touchscreen is willing to take their place briefly.

A sad day.

Their children from Amazonia have taken their place. I can actually see their keys without cheaters.

The parents will be buried in their children's cargo container (box).

OMFG! I actually hooked an HP device to an HP computer without having to spend 6 hours with HP tech support!

I've got a new mouse/keyboard combo going now.

Not my fault anymore.

Get the 'to' line open so I can start flaming people like Dr. Kimmy, honcho! LOL

This new keyboard has a lot longer stroke and not as much tactile feel. Gonna take awhile to get used to that.

I knew it was gonna go out sooner or later. I'm always prepared.

This new keyboard has little flip up feeties that fit between the wire base of my old-timey HP all-in-one rig that the company sent me years ago.

I'm sure that was an accident. Document it and call it a feature.

I'm sure this is bullshit. I asked Chris how much he makes/year, he said $70K. I just wanted to know because he's Mr. Average.

A portrait photo of Tatania McGrath wearing glasses appears on the left side. To the right, bold text states FIREFIGHTERS (US) 96% male Average salary: $46,870. Below that, RECEPTIONISTS (US) 95% female Average salary: $35,920. At the bottom, the text reads Do you still think the gender pay gap is a myth? followed by a thinking face emoji.

Comparing firefighters and and receptionists is BS from the git, but WTF? I'd love to ask Christa what her gals are making, but that'd really be inappropriate and none of my business.

I was surprised to learn that Roxette released about 160 songs. At least that's how many show up in a YT playlist.

Maria died in 2019. Brain tumor complications that began 1-2 decades before, but being pre-covid, at least wasn't from that.

"Comparing firefighters and and receptionists is BS"

Does it take an obscure TV show to violently shake the public into something that at least ends the crying tantrum?

Here's the plan: Each of us get One Million Dollars, ostensibly to buy a plot of land and build a house.

One (me, lol), will only hire female contractors, only buy supplies from female owned companies, and promise not to look too cute on my front patio as to distract this discount labor supply. Oh, and materials...since females only get 79p for every dollar us patriarchs demand. :)

You hire your skilled people, let's see what happens, lol

Your skilled people aren't going to need emotional support coaches, are they?

But I get to buy the real estate for this prject from a woman, but you have to buy from a man, so I get land at 79% what you pay, right?
