Good morning Everybody!
It's good to see the coffee shop so busy.
It's 52 with 73% humidity under clear skies in southeast Baltimore.
I'm curious, how many of us old f&%$s have man boobs and excessive hair? I know I do. Maybe before we pick on
Willie, we could look in a mirror?
That reminds me, I once had a young girl friend who shaved my back. That was a mistake, it itches like crazy when it grows back! No man-scaping for me, thank you.
How about those Washington Nationals?! Now they look like the team many thought they could be; high powered offense and great pitching.
The Ravens won, as expected. If Lamar Jackson's career doesn't get cut short from injury he could be a hall of famer. I can't tell you how impressed I am by him. The young man worked so hard to learn so much in such a short period of time. His pocket presence, foot work and throwing mechanics have greatly improved. A long with his knowledge of NFL defenses. If the Ravens can better coordinate the defense this could be something special! Almost 40 minutes of time of possession sure did help the defense Sunday.
The Redskins won! I know, don't rain on my parade, I'll take what I can get.
Yesterday went well. My little Angel had a day off and we spent the day together, that made my day great! I got my tires put on. I'm still wondering why a half hour job took nearly two hours, but I am happy with my tires. After dropping of the van at the tire shop and shopping at Costco my wife and I were sitting on a picnic bench under a shade tree watching the vehicles come and go at the tire shop. I could not help thinking "if they are taking 3-4 times longer for each job, how much money are they leaving on the table?"
I expected the Michelin tires would improve the comfort of my ride, but I was surprised by how much. I have to watch my speed more closely now. On the way home I noticed I was going 80mph and it felt like 60-65.
I forgot how many extras you get when you buy a set of tires and have them installed at Costco. Road Hazzard warranty, free rotation and balance, free flat repairs a whole list of things, included in the installation price. Not only were this set of tires almost as cheap as the local wholesaler, I got them installed with all these free extras!
Amazon fell behind last night, so I did a 6-9pm 3 hour route to help out and they paid extra.
They only gave me 16 stops and I was done in less than an hour. It's no wonder they get behind. The distribution center was a disorganized cluster f&%$ when I arrived. Luckily one of the young Amazon workers rolled a route out to me while many others waited. It pays to be respectful to everybody and does you no good to whine, cry and complain. I was in and out while many others waited.
My DVR is now almost half full of sports. Hopefully I can catch up before I add too much more.
Does anybody buy Walmart's brand of lunch meat ham? I had always bought Costco's Kirkland brand, but if I eat it a couple of days in a row it can cause my gout to flare up. I recently tried Walmart's brand. A ham sandwich is my go to lunch when I'm alone and busy. I found the Walmart ham has not caused my gout to flare up yet, even if I eat it for lunch everyday! I don't know what that means, but I'm happy. I love ham sandwiches!
On the topic of migraines, from my experience they can be a mystery. My sister has suffered off and on with them for most of her life. My oldest daughter was stricken by them in her senior year of high school and they stayed an occasional problem to this day, but they have become less frequent. We tried all the usual things, no caffeine, no chocolate and a myriad of other things, but nothing seemed to work. Seems to me once they start they just have to run their course. The worst thing is we never know how bad they will be or how long they will last.
I think I have rambled on long enough.
Have a great day Everybody, God Bless Us Everyone!
