Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo:

Senor Weaselo

/

, ,

I don’t know where I’m going with this one today, I’ll be honest. I would have given an Expo recap, but obviously that changed Saturday afternoon with everything that happened.

As of now… there’s no news. Adjuster hasn’t called me yet (as of 3:30), but the body shop said it could go either way. I’ll call after work and ask if there’s any update.

It’s been a fucking year man, since this past December. Or, vehicularly related, it’s been a fucking year and a half. I might have to go to the DMV for an interview, too. We’ll see.

Is it weird to be crying about this, just like the grandparents? After all, since 2017… who’s been with me more? After all, travels to and from gigs, where it’s just been me, my violin, and my car. When I met Senorita Weaselo the first time, we drove her home. When she’s teaching, sure I might go back to my place, and I have students on Saturdays, but he’s the forward operating base, and if anything, my main base of operations. And now… will he still get to be?

Yeah, I’m feeling a little rough right now.

In the news:
-IR updates: Colts QB Anthony Richardson (shoulder), Dolphins RB De’Von Achane (knee), Alijah Vera-Tucker (Achilles, season)

-Niners TE George Kittle may get fined for his “Fuck Dallas” shirt.

A brief BattleBots Beat (that I haven’t watched because of life and all)
Sin City Slugfest 1: No more gatekeepers, just an 8-bot bracket (1/5), winner joins former champions End Game & Tantrum and current champion SawBlaze for Golden Bolt.

They’re playing (women’s) ba… sket… ball…
WNBA Finals Game 2: Smokin’ Aces vs. Senor Weaselo playing at the Garden (Vegas vs. New York, Aces lead 1-0) (9:00, ESPN)

Let’s do that hockey!

Okay, that’s what we got. Fingers crossed.

Welp, Dodgers lost. I guess that’s what they do.

Thank goodness I’ve always got the car.

While not all Dodger fans are violent criminals, statistics bear out that all violent criminals are Dodger fans.

I’m disappointed, but I’ll always have a soft spot in my heart for the Diamondbacks after what they did to the Yankees.

You mean LET THE TERRORISTS WIN? Or saved Enrique Wilson’s life?

Sometimes, when your favorite team just shits the bed in the first round, you just need to take the boat out by yourself and realign your mind and body.

Alright, you lead him there, but did he drink it?

I didn’t lead him anywhere. That’s his boat.

Welp. The teams I have been rooting for (Orioles and Dodgers) have gone 0-6. That’s My MLB Playoff Rooting Interests!

Well, that still leaves Whoever Is Playing The Asterisks

Brick Meathook

Let me know what other teams you are rooting for.

3
Sharkbait

Right? Let’s monetize this

3
Dunstan

I’m a firm believer that sports fans and commentators are too quick to label athletes as “chokers.” There’s a lot of random variance at work, and that means that in a short playoff series, sometimes the best team just loses because them’s the breaks.

That said, the Dodgers are a bunch of fucking chokers.

Oh, you too, Maple Leafs.

For 15 years: “Oh Alex Ovechkin can’t win the big one, he disappers in the playoffs, he’s soft, typical Yoorapean…”
He wins 1 cup, as part of a team: “Oh ok so Ovechkin is obviously a Top 5 player of all time, but is he #1? My column…”

Dunstan

Oh, blaming individual players for team results is the worst. Yeah, Dan Marino doesn’t have a ring because he just wasn’t as good as Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson….

Costas brought up poor Steve Bartman right there at the top of the ninth.

0
Dunstan

I’ll say this for Bartman: the guy did exactly what a lot of people who claim they want to be left alone fail to do, and just declined every opportunity for publicity. Dude could have appeared in various dumb commercials and (hopefully) not-so-dumb documentaries, and just said nope, going back to my life.

Looking at you, Harry and Megan.

Wow. I paid SlingTV twenty bucks to see the last two innings of this.

Yeah, I had “Buck be on the air tonight” because of the baseball playoffs, but it turns out it’s Costas.

“Duck be on the ash tonight” but of course that’s not how you cook Peking Duck.

That Coca-Cola commercial was pretty impressive at 15 seconds.

That was serious good product photography and those guys get paid bank.

It’s been about a week since I moved to the Slim from the Titan (PKB phones for you heathens out there) and I just picked up my Titan to turn some lights off because company is gone and it felt strange in my hands. I still don’t feel 100% at home with the Slim but I guess I got used to it faster than I thought. Hopefully sex will be similar

I just signed up for Sling streaming.

This is the first time I’ve seen the Danger Dogs play all season.

And it will likely be the last.

MLB sending a terrible message showing all those people bringing their baseball gloves into the water.

My current car is coming up on 12 years in November Wifey’s is 4 y/o. Since being married, for 40 some years, not counting the cars of my single years but my favorite is pictured, I have only owned 3 other cars. For 13, 16 and 22 (Wifey’s) years. Paid cash for all but the first one. Banking the car payment money after the first allowed me to do that. I do also connect with my cars, so I can relate.

I’m mad that you could buy a brand new car for $500 cash, but softened a little knowing all those leaded gas fumes didn’t do you any favors.

Those fumes help keep you awake at the wheel… ppl forget that…

Odd, I thought that the existential dread that this is a product of British Leyland ought to be enough to keep you awake

As a single guy when I owned that one, I was claiming my mechanic as a dependent.

1
Gumbygirl

Since we’ve been married, also over 40 years, we’ve owned 13 cars between us, and that’s not including the ones Gumby had from his job. I had my last car for 10 years, this one for 5 so far. It has 40 thousand miles on it. We had one that made it over 250k.

2

I’ve been lucky with mine. All bought new and mostly dealer or authorized mechanic maintenance. I stopped charging oil and major repairs around 25 years ago. I’ll do batteries, light bulbs and easy stuff but no more shade tree mechanic for Hommie.

I’ve been overdoing the exercise and healthy eating so ordered from dog haus and now reading in bed contemplating opening a second bottle of wine

Dunstan

Do it. Do it!

Experimenting with fall-themed cocktails here.

I think I’ve got a success with this one: 1.5 oz mezcal, .5 oz pumpkin spice syrup, 1/3 oz ancho chile liqueur, 1/3 oz coffee liqueur, dash cardamon bitters.

2
Sharkbait

I need a mezcal in my bar.

2
Dunstan

I’m no authority on mezcal, but right now I’ve got Del Maguey. Also have enjoyed Fidencio. Both reasonably priced (~$40)

Oh I did do, and will most likely be leaving half a bottle of this Bordeaux I thankfully am kind of meh about so totally cool if it oxidizes. Ancho chile liqueur sounds delightful and kinda want to make a spicy margarita with that and maybe the cardamom

1
Dunstan

Yeah, I’ve taken to using a bit of chile liqueur in margaritas. I think the poblano one works better in margs, the ancho is good for more smoky drinks.

Watching the Spanish language broadcast of the ARZ vs LAD game and I think I prefer it over the English language broadcast.

ballsofsteelandfury

Spanish is ALWAYS better

In the first inning the announcer has shown more enthusiasm and energy than Joe Buck has shown in his entire broadcast career.

The Wallabies are kind of shit lately. Lowest IRB ranking in their history

Yeah, it’s kinda awesome. Fiji played with fire a little bit in their final game, but got the bonus point they needed.

Sportsnet in Canada fellates the NHL as is custom but they have Cheaters vs Kirby Pucketts behind a paywall and are continuing to show Atl v phi. In light of the worlds issues is minor but fuck Rogers Sportsnet with a rusty screwdriver.

Nah, you’re good. I get emotional letting cars go, too. Or God, when I sold the first house I bought (and had raised three kids past diaper-age). Thankfully, nobody was around so I could let the tears flow.*

*Hippo has an -ism about crying in front of other people, because he is emotionally stunted

WCS

Hang in there, Weaselo. We’re all here for dickjokery and what-nots.

I do think he’d be justified in blaming it all on the Vertically Enhanced Persons’ OL.
