TSCLT 12.0: The pantheon hates a pussy 2.0

[Wat_Tyler]

I would simply enjoy and not wonder. Then again, I understand waiting for the other shoe to drop.


Happy Saturday!!! Last day of Hot As Fuck, complete with a marginal risk of sever weather. Not hot day would be complete without it.


Got anvil parts to pick up. They ain't makin' that shit any more. The good Dr. Tyler will be along for the ride. So may be the kitten.


After coffee, of course.

The other shoe is five tornadoes touching down in the last couple of weeks. Several people were hurt and one direct fatality and several heart attacks. I only feel bad for the one, I'm a firm believer that the gene pool needs more chlorine, but we used to aver 5-6 tornadoes a year, and a touchdown was nearly unheard of, then it was 12-20, now 50 or more and touchdowns are expected, not an exception. The sirens have been replaced with phone blaring and that's what got my cranky ass out of bed at 4 this morning.

Pissing down rain on a grey day today. Yesterday was nice even with the clouds. Today is dismal.

Good day to be at work.

Yeah, okay, tornados. I'm not sure what out alert system is Out West. They had a nasty one 2 months after I left the first time. Some stuff was just getting back to open as I was leaving this time. Speaking of, I may go to visit in 4 weeks or so. I reckon I have the time off.


We have a t-storm blowing in. Today is the last day of Teh Hawts.


Road trip went well. Parts were good. Price was right. Kitten clawed me.


All is right with Allah's Universe.

Messaged the guy about the transmission.


Off to read . . . .

Okay, I'm alive and the computer is working.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I always watch for circling vultures . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

now it’s computers and more computers
and soon everybody will have one,
3-year-olds will have computers
and everybody will know everything
about everybody else
long before they meet them.
nobody will want to meet anybody
else ever again
and everybody will be
a recluse
like I am now.

~ Charles Bukowski

Home from Wally's. I forgot the shooping list. I usually get all but one item when that happens.


I forgot cat food. I haven't told them yet. Good thing we're not all the way out. Yet.

Looking out this morning, I hear a helo (a Robertson) and it's probably 300' elevation below my house. It's not a nice day to be flying. Someone is being pushed to fly (or is just fucking stupid). That sort of shit keeps the SAR people in business.

 

[Inflation999]

That shit makes for a lot of good movies too. Mr. G and I used to be part of our local SAR, I trained him to follow trails and helped some local hunters when a shot missed. One of them was a SAR, when some kids went hiking and were overdue he called to see if Mr. G could help, I wasn't sure but between him, the Hussy, and the SAR guy we found them about eight miles from where they should have been. The SAR guy that went with me called a couple more times after that but thankfully those occasions were rare and our conditions are nowhere near what yours are like.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

People think that they'll remember the path for how they got in, not knowing that it looks diff'runt going the other way. Fucking morons. Pity that more city litlibs don't tooken up wilderness hiking.


Whittling on the grass. I have to be mindful of this foot still. At least the heat is moderate by late July standards.


I have noticed that the fucking days are getting shorter. Motherfuckers!!!

Half the time, SAR here is search and recovery. People fly into hard clouds and never live to tell the tale. Locally, you have to be pretty damn dumb to be "lost" because unlike the sun which moves, the mountains always tell you where you are.

Most of the local rescues are people who are hurt. I can't say all of them do dumb things but many take risks that they just don't understand the consequences of.

"You're lost, city slicker."


Bears gotta eat too.

 

[thør]

The Ring caught another bear wandering through the yard this morning. Likely looking for a lost hiker. You could hear his claws clicking on the asphalt drive as he walked along.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I'll bet that some raw lost hiker is mighty tasty.


The Bezoseses just delivered my new book on How To Talk To Your Cat About Gun Safety. The Girlcat is asleep right now about three feet from the 10mm. She has anger issues sometimes.

At 5:30am, any lost hiker in the 'hood is one less person to send to LA.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Monday!!! Slept decently. Had the girls. Geezer seems to spend the night in the living room any more. We talked about that yesterday.


The roofer is s'poseta start roofing today, but there's a chance of rainybits today, so Wat's Wager is, he doesn't show. "Marginal chance of sever weather." There might be severing. Probably not of the proper things.


Coffee is gittin' 'er done . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Well, I guess I'm all caught up now. Now I need more coffee.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

We still need a gun-of-the-month thread on the PB.


Maybe next weekend.

What's wrong with the GB? You think the anti-gun nuts will get all political?
