TSCLT 12.0: The pantheon hates a pussy 2.0

[JohnnySavage]

Tee Minus 4 days till I leave for the old country. I got the dog sitter all set. $55 a day for 20 days. Outrageous! She should be paying me, to stay in the Manse with Larry (and the other 3 little dogs). The Future Mrs. Savage assures me that's not the way such things work. But I suspect collusion.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Four dogs???? I'd call that a bargain, the best I ever had.


When is she slated to become The Present Mrs. Savage???


Not that it's any of my business.


Am I getting invited???

 

[JohnnySavage]

November, 2025. Santorini, Greece. Make your reservations now!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

My calendar is marked.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

St000pid things to have to solve. Got a handle on a solution. Thanks be to Allah this here ain't mah first rodeo there, cowgirls.

Before We Kill...​

By: Wendell Berry​

The times are disgusting enough,
surely, for those who long for peace
and truth…

Before we kill another child
for righteousness' sake, to serve
some blissful killer's sacred cause,
some bloody patriot's anthem
and his flag, let us leave forever
our ancestral lands, our holy books,
our god thoughtified to the mean
of our smallest selves. Let us go
to the graveyard and lie down
forever among the speechless stones.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Home. Grazing in. My package I ordered has arrived, so I have that to open and to try out the goodies inside.


The kitten just had a piece of hamburger. She doesn't seem all that impressed.

 

[thør]

I was hoping it was a 10 mm.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Metric spanners are noted for doing shit like that, attacking innocent tires. Mr. Tyler picked up a 6" fine file in a tire once, and Wat picked up a knife blade. No pictures, however, as those were the days before cameras were ubiquitous.


Happy Tuesday!!! Slept pretty well. Looks to be warm enough for the rest of the month, which is okay. No heat (or not much) and no a/c. Cats are racing around the house.


Things to sort out at work. That's what they pay me the Big Bucks to do.


I buy my own coffee, however.


We also often add to our pain and suffering by being overly sensitive, over-reacting to minor things, and sometimes taking things too personally.

[thør]

Buy your own coffee?

They don't expect you to share, do they? You should have a choice on sharing.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Fuck no, I don't share!!! Unless she's cute. No, she better be closer to gorgeous, and with adorable tetas, tambien.


In other news:


Joining NFL Network's Good Morning Football on Tuesday, Saleh said he wouldn't close the door on Rodgers returning this season, noting the QB's desire to prove everyone wrong.

"I'm one of those guys searching, like, 'Is he supposed to do this?' " Saleh said. "I've coached Richard Sherman, who was coming off his Achilles. I've got friends who have had Achilles injuries, and what he's doing, according to them, is absolutely ridiculous. For him to be walking already, I wouldn't put anything past him. He is a big believer in manifestation; you are who you think you are, and you become what you think about. He is willing himself to return faster than what you're supposed to be.

"I think he's fueled by doubt -- I don't think, I know -- he's fueled by doubt. The more you doubt him, the more fuel he has. He's on a mission. There's one thing I've learned about him, in my very short time with him, is that when he's got something on his mind and he wants to prove something, he's going to prove it. So, a lot of people can doubt him, but I'm not doubting him. We're leaving the door open for him but it's amazing to see how hard he's been working and the intent at which he's been doing it."

It seems that my co-worker who has issues has added lying to the boss to his list of issues. Those kinds of dogs don't hunt long in Wat's woods.

 

[Inflation999]

You need a new co-worker.
It's been a busy few days, we did a weekend thing and had a bunch of company that led to a repair thing on a porch support because of idiots being children. All is well now and it was completed before we get hit with a bunch of rain that will be around for a while.
I would have checked in but this place isn't good for mixed company, especially the nosy kind that looks over your shoulder when you're on your phone.
Tomorrow we have a work celebration, ten years of building our little business. To celebrate we'll be working, and having cupcakes when that is done.

I think that T is short-time if I had to guess. Sad thing is, kinda like gummint, it'll take an act of Congress to get him gone.


Isn't a congress a group of baboons? I cunt be arsed to look.

Speaking of Goat Rodeos and stoopid things...check this one out! (For gun lovers.)

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Wednesday!!! Slept okay. Had a cat herd not long before the alarm. All is about as average here at/in the house.


Remembered to put the hammer drill back in the truck to go to work. Looks like Wat finally has an appointment to get wifi installed in the office. And it's about fucking time, too.


Coffee!!!

On the path to self-forgetting

remember you are enough,
when you have nothing to give

remain silent,
you have nothing to prove

surrender your fears,
there is nothing to win

love others,
they don't love themselves.

forgive relentlessly,
you have been shown grace.

I think that this model was a one-year-only, and it came with Wat's favorite one-year-only engine. Wonder if they ever made one with a stick???

 

[JohnnySavage]

Last day in the office before I head out for a few weeks.

Filed 3 lawsuits this morning.

What a dick I am.

 

[Inflation999]

I'm being called into the teachers office tomorrow, the little one listens to a historical music group called Sabaton, their music is questionable but it makes her curious about historical events and I like that, much of their music is about famous war events though and it seems her teacher has taken exception to that and the fact that I teach the wee one at home because she's bored (and opinionated although I'm not sure where she gets that from). So tomorrow morning, the teacher, principal and I are going to sit down and talk, I don't think it will go well for them.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Give 'em Hell, de bot' uh yuz. Hell is what they need. It's good for them. It builds character. Too many people don't have enough character.


Wat got to do a road trip. There was a kitchen faucet fuck-up, and the ones we need were at the distribution center most of the way across the state. So, road trip.


I hope the goofs didn't burn the building down.

 

[Inflation999]

Week seven and my third time in because of this one teacher, the year isn't going to continue this way and tomorrow it will end one way or another. She wanted to see me in the classroom, I was the one who dragged the principal in and if I have to I'll go over their heads, I know most of the board administration.

 

[Inflation999]

If they burn the building down would you be assigned to oversee the rebuilding? Job security and all that.
