The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

I was walking through a quarry…I said to the foreman, “That sure is a big rock!” “Boulder,” he corrected me. So I stuck out my chest and shouted, “THAT SURE IS A BIG ROCK!!”

Two hats were hanging on a hat rack. One said to the other, “You stay here. I’ll go on ahead.”

I have a broken barometer that I really need to sell. No pressure.

The calendar’s days are numbered.

Two plates are sitting on a table. One says to the other, “Tonight, dinner is on me.”

I was going to be a doctor, but I didn’t have enough patience.

Two fish swim into a concrete wall. One turns to the other and says, “Dam!”

Why did the scarecrow win an award? He was out standing in his field.

What do you call a rapper who doesn’t follow their own advice? A hip-hopocrite.

I, for one, like Roman numerals.

You’ll never guess who I bumped into on the way to the opticians! …Everyone.

What’s the difference between swine flu and bird flu? Bird flu needs tweetment while swine flu requires oinkment.

Is it me or are circles pointless?

I’m a perfectionist with a procrastinator complex. Someday I’m going to be awesome.

We had an argument about which vowel is the most important. I won.

What happens if the average number of bullies at a school goes up? The mean increases.

you have been opening the Christmas crackers before the big day!

I took a concealed carry class and I am very careful. The guy next to me was so scary. He was firing like he was in a gang or a rap video....he did not return for second half of class.... I was scared shooting next to him..... shooting with the gun horizontal. Pointing it everywhere but in front of him. At one point he shoved it down the back of his pants..... we were in pairs with a trainer to supervise. Our trainer said to me. "Just keep shooting" and he was on that guy.... to the tune of wtf are you doing?

That guy would be tossed off my range inside of 4 seconds. One does not fuck about with firearms. Load them, and one fucks about even less.

If you smoke, QUIT! Yesterday! It's the #1 risk factor!

Had an LTR with a good nurse longtime ago. I'd make the occasional comment about exercise or diet, and she'd say, none of it means a thing if you smoke.


#1: don't smoke.

#2: everything else.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Or end up with a case of "Glock leg"...

They fuck it up for the sentient among us.

Around...I was not a fan favorite here so I left.. but I miss u so I had to creep in and let u know... kiss

Anywhere.


Doesn't stop me.


Don't allow it to stop you, either.

You got me, although it's not a big day in my calendar

Drink LOTS of fluids! Not just water but also soups and teas.

Take a hot shower and massage both above your eyes and just below the cheekbones. This, combined with the steam, will help loosen the junk in your sinuses.

Try gargling with warm salt water if you have a sore throat from post-nasal drip.

REST! Get as much sleep as you can.

If you have a fever, consider being seen by a provider for antibiotics. If you don't have a fever, or just a low grade fever, it's more likely viral. Antibiotics won't do anything to kill viruses.

I hope you feel better soon, sweetie!

I've had good luck with saline spray, too.


Just sayin'.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Probably not.

I couldn’t get the vid to work, but needless to say I am a fan of firearms safety overall, a handgun with a manual safety (or revolvers with a heavy trigger pull).

A draw with the finger away from the trigger is de rigeur as well.

I like the bugs. It wouldn't be Larsen otherwise.

Dont get caught stealing advent calendars... You will get 25 days!

Larsen was truly a genius!

It's not even midnight here yet and I've caught up! I hope you're all sleeping well if you're supposed to be asleep or having a good start to your day. I'm going to try to get an early night. My plan is to sleep as much as I like tomorrow!

Have a Super Sunday, all! ️

I fell asleep early last night watching Elf (after recording Army/Navy and watching it over dinner.)

Busy day. Delivered firewood, filled up my wood bins. Raked the farm yard with the tractor and got our Christmas tree.

Since the outdoor burn ban has been lifted, we had a nice late afternoon fire before dinner.

Didn’t get to my moms, but I’ll get there today.

Someone bought nearly all of my kindling this week so I am selling it in bulk.

I think I used to buy a cord of slab wood for $20 or there abouts. Times change.

 

[Wonderer67]

I sell seasoned mixed hardwood for $225 a cord. Also add a delivery fee.

It really hasn’t increased much in years.

Good morning all! I do miss our wood burning fireplace. Just fake gas logs in this home. I guess it could be worse right. It doesn’t get that cold very often here but it is nice to enjoy the smell, crackling sounds.

I do like it. We actually have outside fires a lot. We did a quick fire and had snacks and beer late yesterday afternoon. It was cold (maybe 30), but we had a good fire.

Yes I miss our fire pit as well. That looks like a nice fire going there

Smoking sucks...
My mom died at age 58 ( 1977 ) and my dad died at age 63 ( 1978 )
They died one year apart from each other
They were both chain smokers...

I grew up in NC. Everyone smoked. Everyone…except my beloved momma. The smokers are all long gone. Even the ones who quit. My mother, God bless her, is still among us and out in the yard piddling around . We’re cooking for the family today.

There was a 60 mins episode from around 15 yrs ago. It was about the “Blue Areas” (areas where people have unusually long lives) and the one in the US is just outside of LA, believe it or not! I’ll find and post the link on here, but the crux of it was researches found the data on this community and went back some 30yrs after they started taking data. The one thing that stuck out from it? If you smoked, you died. End of story.

Stop smoking ciggys sports fans!

I’ll get off the soap box now. Leaving you with your Second Day of Christmas Z.

Good morning everyone. I hope you’ve been able to relax this weekend.

This new sleep schedule sucks. According to the apps and what my Doc says I should be getting 6 hours 45 minutes of sleep a night. I’m going to bed later so I’m “more tired” and I’ll get more quality sleep. Well this morning the alarm went off and I rolled over and got another 90 minutes of sleep. I’ll keep working on it and hopefully I’ll start to se the desired results soon.

Enjoy your Sunday (if you get Sunday off) and we’ll talk with you tomorrow.

 

[HumpDayHoratio]

I just had a flashback of youth. Roadside vendors with Velvet Elvis’, Poker playing dogs, the “scratching beagle” playing pool! . I’ll look for those for our European cousins who probably have no clue of what we speak!

 

[HumpDayHoratio]

Found it! 60 mins report on 90+ from 2014

Here’s a follow on…from 2020 on some of the same folks

The good news…moderate caffeine and alcohol are good for us! Not the whole pot OM!

 

[Greylag]

Great day yesterday shooting on a dog training day. My boys left at home and carried a gun instead. It was hard work with six hours walking but relaxed with five guns and five handlers. i shot well for a change and we had 40 pheasant and two woodcock. The weather started as the pics….Wow …..then it was and wet. Great to be out though.

 

[PersonalFavors]

Probably not.

I couldn’t get the vid to work, but needless to say I am a fan of firearms safety overall, a handgun with a manual safety (or revolvers with a heavy trigger pull).

I can’t get those videos to work either. Seems like too much information google already has about me. Different kind of safety.
