Well, my two weeks of Spring Break is almost over. There is a plan to have us “report to work” on Monday, but as of now no one knows what that will look like. We do know there won’t be any students, and we are expected to retrieve our materials in order to attempt to teach our classes from home.
That sounds fine if you work in a normal program, but my students are primarily attendance-challenged, so “work from home” will probably equal them ignoring my emails & playing more Fortnite or other such thing. (I do not play video games.)
Nonetheless, much like Fozz’s late-night rant from yesterday predicted for him, I spent the day in hell cleaning & deciding what to toss & what to surreptitiously hide. At least now I have a semi-clean office in which to cloister every day.
Today’s internet good dog is Peanut, a mutt who loves mudd & obviously hates his owner.

Good boy.
Tonight’s … entertainment?:

- Also: How to be precise with mokatines; and construct a choux pastry, Religieuse à l’Ancienne.

- A tennis cake based on a Victorian recipe; and two types of cream horns.
- 48 Hours – 10:00 PM | CBS
- 48 Hours investigates whether Lizzie Borden really hack her parents to death. A surprising answer and an inside look at the haunting crime scene.
In case you were curious, here’s what a Religieuse à l’Ancienne should look like,
and here’s what it looks like if you try & make one from Tim Hortons’ product.
See you tomorrow.
So I am watching The Petrol Age on Amazon Prime. It’s pretty interesting, and not a bunch of loud-mouthed assholes hollering.
That’s the “old” Bunker Hill in downtown Los Angeles.

Balls, you would like this. The footage above is a rear-projection element shot by a Hollywood studio on Bunker Hill before they tore it all down. Some other landmarks remain. I made a matching film once, I’ll see if I can find it and post it.
I’ve seen this video before! Yes, I love this stuff! I’d love to see what you put together!
Its still plugged in.
Darwin entry coming up
GFI; he’s fine…… except for his balls.
you ever start posting gifs and listening to podcasts and forget something?
I can’t tell if Under Siege is a Good Movie That Sucks, or A Bad Movie That’s Great.
Either way, Tommy Lee Jones, Gary Busey, and Colm Meany make perfectly charismatic bad guys. They’re so much fun to watch. Plus, Miss July.
With that cast it is a bad movie that is great
It’s a train wreck of fucked up people in a very stupid movie.
So I agree with you; it is great in a way only Hollywood could do.
*Not Jones and Meany.
Joan, sweet Joan..

I think that’s Ida Lupino
I think Ida not care.
Yeah, she was around 19 in the photo.

Oh, also worth mentioning is that I transplanted two of my mj seedlings into some space I cleared out in the spinach patch and three more into small pots. I need to find a home for the one last one so I can start re-using the starter pots for probably pepper plants.
Mrs Cola just caught me eating floor chips. Chips that fell out of the bag when I lustily grabbed the bag from the cupboard.

Lead paint chips: delicious but deadly
I added an extra plot to the garden – not sure where I’m going to get the soil to fill it with, but I’ll make do. I am also going to try to grow potatoes in a bucket. Today I spent some time talking with my neighbor and musing out loud about how I would go about building my own still, should it come to that. I’d probably fill it with broken glass, if you can believe that.
I am going to get hammered tonight.
Regarding your 2nd paragraph: Beetcha 2 it.
Hey man, it’s not a race.

2 episodes in, this is what I understand to be the four types of big cat owners:
1) Homeless-exploiting militant magician
2) Victim-grooming cult leader magician
3) Fake-sanctuary-operating volunteer exploiter
4) Retired caricature of a 70’s drug lord (this is the good one)
I am 5 episodes in. Strap the fuck in.
Every time they introduce a character it gets worse.
Woman: “He should shut down his zoo.”
Man: “Fuck you, I don’t have to. I’ll fucking kill you.”
Woman: “He’s insane. I want to rescue his animals.”
Man: “She lies to her workers and tricks them into becoming volunteers.”
Woman: “I find if I lie to my workers, I don’t have to pay them. It’s a good system.”
Other Man: “I have 3 wives who can’t leave the property without me.”
Other Other Man: “I had one of my guys cut the head off a federal informant. This is Frisbee the leopard. *nuzzles*”

Solid taste, possibly greatest name ever for a beer.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, Season 3 of Ozark came out last night and I need to spend the next 10 hours watching it.
Things are suddenly looking up for Knicks fans.
Does Dolan have Covid-10?
As a matter of fact yes.

These are all guys who are Ted Nugent if Ted Nugent would kill Ted Nugent on sight for killing a deer. The insanity definitely ramps up early in episode 2.
The first 8 track tape I ever bought was Ted Nugent. Stranglehold, baby. That motherfucker really is like a dog in heat. Fuck him with a barbed-wire encrusted Stratocaster.
I thought Ted Nugent was the shit, back when I was 16. Significantly less of a fan now. Still have the hearing loss from being right in front of a speaker tower at his concert though.
He’s like the Tom Cruise, Tim Allen, and Dave Mustaine of my life. Very disappointed.
In tryiing times like these you just gotta get back to basics

Until you posted this, I forgot that I used to have this LP, and that this was an actual band, and I thought this was a really rocking tune. (video doesn’t seem to want to get on the internet. look up Bread and Mother Freedom).

Fine, I’ll just go give my 2.5 Million chips to strangers because you guys obviously don’t want them.
Someone needs to put up the Hippo Signal for a new table.
I CAN WIN TOURNAMENTS EVEN WHEN WCS AND MYSELF AREN’T CHEATING.
Yes we used to do that. That’ll getcha killt in Vegas.
Hey, “cheating” is a harsh word. I prefer, “enhanced cooperation.”
Also, I can’t get the damned program to run on wifey’s CPU.
See? I knew she hated me.
SOB!
FWIW, we never cheated against our friends. Only other people.
Nice try, Pete Rose.
Yeah, I’m just going to play VR poker now. My 2.9MM can wait for another time.
I only give up my chips if there’s a sexy lady hiding behind some obfuscating tiles.
Went with this one instead of the one below it with a 48 year old Mt. Sinai nurse’s last text to his sister. Getting to the point where we should probably start publicly shaming people who aren’t taking it seriously when they’re fucking about in stores and shit.
See they went live action for Kung Fu Panda 3. And lasers. Lots of lasers
Gettin pretty drunk. Day 14 inside. At least it isn’t toilet gin like in prison.
At least not yet.
Just updating the DFO Wiki: Moose has a sympathetic foot fetish and Mr. Ayo hates Achewood. Anything else?
i’m firmly against body odor.
Ok, removing tWBS from the list of “candidates to repopulate 1600s France.”
Hehehehehe
This is a perfect example. WTF is this? What’s funny about this? What’s the actual point of this?
Making a motorcycle jump over Everest is funny, I think.
Live funny look at Mr. Ayo’s screen:
THAT is funny!
Friends spying on each other: check
Old ass spyware computer technology: check
Talking animals: check
Virtually jumping a motorcyle over Mt Everest: check
Setting the Mt Everest pic as the desktop background, instead of just maximizing the window: check
Handwritten post-it note showing who’s monitor we’re looking at, juxtaposed with the inscrutable technological feat of computers plus the exponentially more unbelievable idea of remote monitoring someone else’s computer: check
What exactly was the point of setting up this remote monitoring? Are they just fucking with “Ray,” or are they trying to protect him from Nigerian scammers, or is it just some good old fashioned fun?: check
Mt. Everest is ~30,000 feet above sea level, no modern fuel injected, much less carbeurated, engine, could operate at such heights.
Is the person we’re watching an idiot?
With a modern computer at one’s finger tips, is this the type of entertainment to be had? Could “Ray” not have had more fun playing an actual motorcycle “video game”?
etc.
NERD!!!
I’ve always been sure that Ayo is fucking with us. Here at Day Nine of my voluntary quarantine, I get it. I’m watching different Kommenters crack up in their own ways, and you can see me. Huzzah!

I just could never get over the way Journey fucked over Aynsley Dunbar, so fuck Journey. Google it.
Have we abandoned Poker again?
We just have a lack of leadership keeping the tables open.
I’ve got a freeview of Starz this weekend anyway.
I GOT MOVIES!!!!!
Dude, pornhub premium is free this weekend. We all have movies.
I don’t watch porn anymore. Errrrrr, I mean I never did if my mother asks.
SOMEBODY OPEN A POKER TABLING THINGY!!!!!!
I would play in an hour
Hearing a lot of buzz about the Tiger King thing on Netflix. Anyone watched it yet?
Buckle up buddy. It’s six-plus hours of batshit craziness.
3 minutes in and John Kasich is on my screen. Smashing that thumbs down button.
That’s his only appearance!
Feels like everyone but me (and you) have watched it.
Just figured out what it was a few hours ago
Episode 4 tonight. Fucking ridiculous. Ep 1 is slow and ep 2 hooks you.

Former Bearistocrat Anthony Adams is a national treasure.

Wolves have no clue what we’re going through.
Did someone say quarantine spanking?
Welcome to another edition of good idea bad idea:
Good idea: i suggest to my dad I stay at the old house we’re trying to sell, its empty, and there’d be less chance of us infecting one another.
Bad idea: house has limited amenities, and I don’t mind the lack of wifi because I have unlimited data, except there’s shitty cell service
Found a funny:

Going to start running the trails out there as soon as it warms up.

If celebrity deathmatch were still around, and as nostalgically good as I remember, I’d like to see Ben Folds vs. Ben Gibbard. THE BATTLE OF THE BENS.
Big Ben Folds would just “clock” Gibbard in the head with a Brick.

Wow.

Sometimes what’s expected is still the most worthwhile.
The structural engineer on my technical team is from La Grange, TX. She is the smartest human being I have ever met. Today I turned her and her husband on to the ZZ Top documentary I pimped here yesterday. Waiting for reaction, I think it will go well. A hau hau hau. A hm hm hm.

Churches everywhere are apparently still holding large gatherings, which makes sense considering how much they love to fuck the young and defenseless.
Say what you want about churches having large gatherings, hastening the End Times is really good for business.
They’ve been waiting for this forever.

I would eat the shit out of the Religieuses à l’Ancienne.

You’d the shit out of anything shaped like an ass.
This is true.
I’d eat that!

LOSERS INVESTMENT CLUB ASSEMBLE!
My cousin is an attorney as well as an aficionado of murder crimes, especially historical ones. One time when I was up visiting, she had to go down to Fall River city hall for some lawyering-related reason or other, I was just hanging around the house, so she took me along. I asked her to drive by the USS Massachusetts, which she did, and then she just drove me on over to Lizzie Borden’s house to show me that. She didn’t even have to look at a map.
