  1. That's it! I said Saturday night but it was Friday. I've been in and out of a covid coma for the last several days and got my days confused. This is my old man hobby. I wait for something to fly over and track it til it lands.
  2. Saturday night a Canadian AF Hercules flew over my house headed south. I pulled up flightradar24 and followed it all the way to Bergstrom. Probably what you saw. I didn’t pay any attention to the model other than Lockheed Herc. The flight originated at Winnipeg. I only followed it because it seemed odd to have a RCAF plane over Kansas.
  3. I'm getting an occasional ad but nothing to bitch about. The other oddity I have noticed is that I have lost the star that indicates I have participated in a thread. I still have a $3.50 logo so it doesn't look like the rent is past due. Not really much of a problem but I thought @immamac might need to hear about all of the symptoms.
  4. Maybe not his focus, but it was his aim.
  5. Cowboys have the 18 down pat.
  6. My Dad always followed her name with "ducka you head".
  7. The Rio Grande is clearer than I would have guessed.
  8. What are you hiding by leaving the appliance doors open?
  9. Yeah, I've been around long enough to know all that but you have to admit that the journey from carnies to secret agents to incestuous LGBTQ types might be worth more than one "wow". But I was raised a simple Mennonite so what do I know?
  10. Interesting unit of measurement. I would give your story 2 Torbushs but they are pretty subjective, I suppose.
  11. Fuckery Fucking has a nice ring to it.
  12. You have to wait until Wichita State is finished with him. We gonna get another choker to clean up the mess caused by our earlier choker.
  13. A few from Henry Cowell Redwoods SP outside of Santa Cruz.
  14. We spent a week in Pacific Grove/Pebble Beach the week before Christmas. Luckily, we made the trip before Southwest shit the bed and a river of rain hit the peninsula. These are old iPhone pictures, best I can do. Sunset from below Pebble Beach. Sunrise from Lover's Point Bald Eagles on a carcass below my house when we returned.
  15. Do Mission Impossible next
  16. This is on the playlist for my funeral.
  17. This song, dedicated to guitarist Roy Buchanan, was composed by longtime friend Stevie Wonder as an apology to Jeff for releasing "Superstition" first. This is what Beck is referring to in the liner notes on the back of the album when he says, "thanks to Stevie." @jimmyjazz
  18. Bullshit! You cut that faux bite out with a bandsaw. Nobody bites that clean.
  19. I got 5/$140M from the Mets.
  20. Sorry, Bro. Maybe next year.
  21. Merry Christmas y’all. Standing in front of the bay window, pantsless with my coffee and this walks across my brome field.
  22. -10 degrees with 30mph wind in Marionfuckingkansas right now. Wrapped in a snuggie and watching xhamster. I'll be ok.
  23. Emil Joseph Kapaun (April 20, 1916 – May 23, 1951) was a Roman Catholic priest and United States Army captain who served as a United States Army chaplain during World War II and the Korean War. Kapaun was a chaplain in the Burma Theater of World War II, then served again as a chaplain with the U.S. Army in Korea, where he was captured. He died in a prisoner of war camp. In 1993, Pope John Paul II declared him a Servant of God, the first stage on the path to canonization. In 2013, Kapaun posthumously received the Medal of Honor for his actions in Korea. He is the ninth American military chaplain Medal of Honor recipient.
