Tina Turner wasn’t just a rock legend, she was a car lover​

Tina Turner was known for many things: her unmistakable raspy voice, her unrivaled on-stage energy, and her ability to overcome whatever life threw her way. Did you know she was also an avid an auto enthusiast?

The Queen of Rock ’n’ Roll, who died on May 24 at the age of 83, loved the freedom that cars provided. They represented a blessed escape for the musical superstar, who couldn’t go anywhere in public without being recognized. Perhaps that inescapable cost of fame was part of the reason she lived out her later years in Switzerland, rather than the United States.

Turner always found solace in automobiles, most notably her white Jaguar XJ6, which she received as a gift from Sammy Davis Jr. in 1970. She also had a silver E-Type, given to her in 1973 by then-husband Ike Turner.

According to Turner’s 2018 autobiography, My Love Story, Davis originally wanted to gift her a Mercedes-Benz, but her assistant suggested a Jaguar instead because the singer “was into English cars.” Turner admitted the Jag “awakened my passion for fast cars.”

“It may sound silly,” Turner wrote, “but one of my favorite escapes, and a secret pleasure, was driving my Jaguar. I loved it because it was something I could do by myself, one of the few times I could be alone and free.”

Experimented with something for supper. It worked. Sorta Chinese. Still working on the seasoning, but it's closer than before.

Happy Thursday!!! Money shows up early here on this new job. Payday isn't until tomorrow but thanks to their early depositing and the bank's early posting, all of Wat's June crap is paid. In fact, this new job is moar gooderer than the old one in every way I have experienced and probably in every way I can imagine. Allah truly has smiled upon his favorite.


We have a really decent spring this year. Cooler. Certainly a product of Glowball Warming, that and the will of Allah. Cats are fed and resting, sleep last night was decent. the front porch cat is working on getting up to touching distance, one step at a time, and there be work weasels coming today so shit will get done. As long as we keep moving on that job, all seems to be pretty good.


And coffee, of course . . . .

Made it to June. Six more months till I get my retirement. I haven't had a regular pay check in 20 years; it will be nice to know when and how much money will be coming in.
 
I was reading some old posts in one of the earlier versions of Our Beloved Thread. Some of the snotty comments from The Pussy Patrol - the ones whom all the gods hate on General Principle - about us folks living "paycheck to paycheck" are an absolute h000t. Consider the acreage, buildings, cars, bikes, trucks, horses and investments owned by the regulars here and it puts the lie to all the hatefult000d. Of course, lies, obfuscation and drama are their stock in trade.


So, welcome to the paycheck-to-paycheck crowd, Johnny.


There's a silly joke there . . . .

Umm speaking of acquisitions, as I may or may not have mentioned the building we own is only a part of what was originally the whole dead-end we're on, and there were 4 buildings. We got number two across from us and building three and the now empty lot came up today. Being a glutton for punishment, I put in an offer.
 
Gawd damn right!!! Buy up all that shit. They ain't making any more land. Had a chat with the landlady about some stuff tookening place down the road a bit. They have cleared out some trees and fence along the road. So we can assume that the cattle is gone. The old guy died last year, and we have been kinda waiting to see what might come up for sale. She's been steady turning her mental wheels coming up with ways to make another dollar. So we're watching and waiting.


Got a call from the boss this afternoon. Caught him up on what we've been working on this week. He told me that my job is going the best of the lot. He told me that I got lucky. Now, you all know you some Wat. That's right.


"I'll be damned! I'm that fucking good!"


We had a good laugh.

Happy Friday!!! Nice benefit of a short week is the week is short. Yeah, I know. Forgot to set the alarm and overslept all of 7 minutes. Oh well.


Looks like we get mid 80s this afternoon.


The Little Mexicano Woman wants to do supper next Tuesday. It's Taco Tuesday anyway, so . . . .


And the good doctor is doing much better at answering her phone when she is called and checking in in general.

The problem with sitting down with my morning coffee, is that I gotta get up and get it. Back in the day, I had staff for such things.
 
Looks like the weasel staff is taking its sweet-ass time getting on Wat's job. Of course, the heartbreaking part of that is, if they don't show up, then Wat will blow town at lunchtime. Hey, Wat's job is going better than all of the others. Because Wat is All That And A Sack Of Chips. He's that fuckin' good.


And that fuckin' modest, too.
