Well, this week has been interesting. Dave and I have logged a lot of driving miles.
I helped the former tWLS with a few things and we didn’t fight once (although it was close one time).
I had the opportunity to visit with some old friends. That was nice.
But among other things, I actually saw, live and in person, the Baltimore Orioles win a game on Wednesday night.
Yes you heard that correctly. They beat the Washington Nationals 9-2. And Chris Davis actually got a hit going the opposite field against the shift.
Now granted, I don’t expect them to score nine more runs for the rest of the month combined.
But for one night, they played like champions.
And I have no theme this week. So it’s going to be a free for all. My apologies.

Somebody say something funny.
Yo momma is so fat when she got on the scale it said, “I need your weight not your phone number.”
Sorry, that’s all I got.
The Aristocrats!
I was researching moving to Perth Australia. Seriously. Then I found out it was one of the most remote locations on the planet and it’s next closest airport was in Jakarta Indonesia and…
I thought about Wisconsin instead.
That’s still a work in progress.
I worry that all of Australia will be burnt to a crisp within a decade.
Whereas Wisconsin has cheese, so that’s in the plus column. Plus, you’re white, so you should get along fine there.
But they’re Packers fans.
So there’s that on top of it.
That is a huge factor.
Speaking of huge, I’ve thought of moving there so I could feel thin again.
Poutine is the trick.
It’s a pretty big city, though. On the plus side, you’re already a Dockers fan!
EXACTLY!
I would move to Australia in a heartbeat if lady bfc would let me. And I could get a yob there.
Got a chill Woodstock thing working here.

It’s like Coachella, except the attendees will fuck future generations!
On a MUCH lighter note, you can’t not laugh at the following line from this review of a local pork supplier:
The first thing you notice about Oliver Woolley’s meat is its rich mauve color.
Is he swarthy?
/laughs, then wonders how many Friday nights BFC spends reading pork supplier reviews
Someone I know now works in comms for ICE and it boils my fucking blood. So I’m reposting this week’s mailbag because my mini rant on the subject is at least a minor outlet: https://www.doorfliesopen.com/2019/07/16/mouth-flies-open-dfo-advice-mailbag-14/
Hard not to feel powerless and the opposite of hopeful at the moment.
Right there with you brother.
I read the links in your post too.
I remember the 60’s and this shit scares me.
My dad, and his cousin are Vietnam vets. After the Cold War ended, it seemed like things were finally going to figure themselves out. Leave it to a bunch of Cold War dodgers to fuck it.

This might be the proudest post I’ve ever put up here. It’s men like my dad because I enlisted, only to be deal with another pointless war. I need a cigarette, and I try to vape these days.
I personally use a 6 mg juice called VCT which is vanilla custard tobacco in my vape system. It’s refreshing without any of that pesky ash and spent matches waste.
It’s the civilized way for nicotine injestion.
Quick! Where’s my agent?!
I’m a veteran! I don’t smoke. But I used to!
I’m still pretty high, but good. I kicked the shit out of a crossword puzzle tonight, so I’ll always have that going for me.
Feel you my brother.

Hell yes, youngest right just stopped by, she’s in LA to pick up Eldest granddaughter to steal her for the weekend to take her to Comicon. Granddaughter knows nothing about it yet. Littlest right is wearing a 4 day pass for Comicon because her mom is hosting an e-sports lounge at Comicon and they just hosted the celebrity event. Mike Tyson was there.
She’s got a cool fucking job.
Howdy everyone!
Looking at the picture and my youngest 3 year old granddaughter is wearing the Slayer t-shirt that I bought for her last birthday underneath her 4 day Comicon pass.
Not sure I’ve ever been more proud.
I just ate an entire bag of chips and jar of salsa. So I’m an idiot who feels like shit. How’s life for you all?
Absolutely grateful that this stupid work week is over. Much better now that it’s behind me.
Cheers.
I down two bags of popcorn pretty much every night. My blood pressure doesn’t appreciate, but, my drunk brain does. You are fine.
Shit, that reminds me, the doc told me to monitor my BP and report it to him. Fuck.
160 over 110 is pretty good, right?
I was trying to make that my BAC
There’s still plenty of time
Unsurprised Tomorrow: FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!!!!
Happy Friday you fucking bastards.
That!
That’s Gomer Pyle!
I’m really high and I’m going to now solve the Saturday New York Times crossword puzzle (it’s published Friday evening, and I’m on the west coast).
Saturday is the hardest, let’s see how I do. I’ll do another toke just to keep it fair.
Fuck you.
It’s harder than Sunday? Isn’t it smaller than Sunday’s?
(I may have participated in the LA Crosswords Challenge at Loyola Marymount about 10 years ago.)
Much harder than Sunday. I came in at 32:22 tonight, about ten minutes more than my average Saturday. I was pretty high though. My mind drifted.
Ah, I see you gotta subscribe to do it online. So it’s a profit deal…
RECAP:
Cincy scores 7 baseball points in a row

No. We would need even sillier terminology
silly will be any Saturday and Sunday bullpen usage
And a tea break
El Trafico features the best teams in the best league in the world!

Let’s say….yes.
This is how I picture Moose, btw.
I have two lamps, no Paul McCartney-esque

Jeebus, tying tun to the plate
Hey, the Orioles scored more than 9! And they did it off Fortnite Price!

Oops. I killed Sexy Friday.
Redshirt Reacts Reasonably?
/sorry, that was medium mean
You should have listen to the Reds Radio Broadcast. I was waiting for Marty Brennaman to start swearing on the air.
Lucic for James Neal? That’s like trading a pile of burning garbage for another, different pile of burning garbage.
Time for the Biannual Cincinnati Sport Team Season Funeral
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AX_kmrdaBc
At least you don’t have Mick Cronin to give you another 26 win regular season, and lose by 25 in the Round of 64 to kick around anymore!
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was making people think Cincy could make it past the 1st weekend.
Definitely sums up every single post-season run any Cincy team has had since 1992.
last funny:
the CATS trailer is proof of a conspiracy theory i’ve long believed— that rich people have different, much better drug
HOLY #BFIB!! Down a TD, score a 10-spot in the 6th. THANKS, SATAN!!!
found a funny:
Sneakerheads are boy horsegirls

I don’t think I’ll be having to worry about that anymore. But I’ll bookmark it just in case. LOL.
I think I need a need modem/router combo. I refuse to rent one from spectrum because fuck those guys. Any recs?
I’ve got a Netgear Nighthawk. Dual band router that works pretty well. Forget the modem type but really any should work, depending on your speed. 1gbps requires DOCSIS 3.1 standard. Less than that speed you can use a modem with DOCSIS 3.0 standard.
I’m a tech idiot, but if I get that I still need a router, right?
For wifi yes. Some modems have routing capability built in, so that’s a feature to look for. My modem and router are separate.
I have an Airport Extreme, so I don’t know about routers. As for modems, it’s a standalone, but I have a MOTOROLA SB6141 Surfboard and it’s perfect. I’m sure you found this extremely helpful.
Actually, I have to run. Ta-ta.
Well, shit. That works, too.
Gentlemen.
Where?
Moneyshots, anyone?
Jamal Adams is the only hero ever to play for the Jets.
Well, maybe IK Enemkpali…
