Banner Pic is obviously older as Orson is much smaller, much much smaller, than now, and buddy is still alive. Plus, the subwoofer behind them appears to be unchewed.
I am finally feeling better after what I have decided was one of my worst weeks of being ill. If you see anyone coughing, sneezing or looking really exhausted, stay away from them or keep a cloud of Lysol between you and them. The exhaustion was actually the worst part of the whole experience. Anyway, I am feeling better, at least well enough to Carpenter tonight’s post.
NFL News: what? you think I am better informed than ESPN?
Baseball News: really don’t care, but that Mets v. Giants game was a good one last night.
On the gaming front, I am happy to say that none of the games on my Steam wishlist were removed by the censorship of payers. What a joke, they won’t allow us to pay in legal tender for items that are legal to purchase based on a small groups vocal outcry based on spurious moral charges? Waiting for the class action law suit, because it is restraint of trade in my books, which I know the lawyers in the kommentist will correct me by pointing out how incorrect my book is and how it is obviously a work of fiction, bearing no relationship to reality. The entire concept boggles my mind, the conspiracy theories are amazing. The card agencies were the ones who wanted this, it is the first step in shutting down independent games developers, and other theories. Me, the truth will probably contain parts of all of them. Nothing is ever cut and dried.
Word count! And the post is longer than the headline. Let’s see sports mentioned. Check. Dick joke, dick joke, shit.

Happy Lou Reed. It’s a bit unnerving, but I like it!

Suzanne!
This song is essentially a summary of my relationship life since I was in high school.
I didn’t think Lou Reed got any happier than this, and I sure am glad to have been mistaken!

I hope student sections across America are ready to put their names on the map when Coach Survivor brings the Buffs to town.
Ralphie’s gonna just flatten COACH CHEMO during the run-out before a game this season. Like, literally, trample COACH SOBLESSED in front of 50000 people who got tickets to Folsom Field that Saturday. COACH SURVIVOR will need more than just a new bladder.

Finals night for lacrosse for me. My was in the gold final, but just couldn’t keep up. We played 4v4 and they had a sub and we did not. Lost 8-5.
Then stayed for for bronze or toilet bow final. Both benchs had 4 subs so a quick game, but not as chippy as I would have expected. Was tied at 9 going into the 4th but again, couldn’t hang on and lost 12-10.
Got 2 goals in the first and 2 more in the second game and a buncha assists. Would be good with no points and 2 wins.
Bonus that I didnae hurt myself, well no new injuries.
Rise and grind.

I’d love to see Lil’ and Lil’er WCS’ reactions to these if they received the same thing.
Found a funny:
I don’t have pep in my step I have dread in my tread, a grudge in my trudge, woe in my go
Padres vs Mets series starts tonight ⚾️

I don’t understand the equation.
Boobs plus DeVito equals Joy?
The +1 is for Eva Green.
Do you use surfline.com?
Yes. I looked at it this morning, in fact. If all goes well I’ll be heading out at Dockweiler on Wednesday.
Here’s a gift I received this weekend.
It’s a butt cheeks keychain with custom craftsman applied thong tan lines. I have a specific application reserved for this important artifact; not as a key holder but as a zipper pull on one of my camera bags. Crucial compartments receive special zipper pulls.

My wife says I can be an idiot sometimes.
Pretty cool of her to give me permission like that.
Bummer about Ryne Sandberg. Very very good player, probably not roided up. He can finally have another beer with Harry Caray.

Excellent.
Curt Schilling is actually only 58 but he seems like the type who would physically threaten a doctor who looks at his appalling cholesterol levels and then tries to give him some gentle tips on how he can extend his lifespan.
Dr. Zaius speaks:
That’s so stupid and insulting.
(i.e., laughing like an idiot)
Dana Gould’s Dr. Zaius’ stuff is relentlessly hilarious.
You gotta love Midwest Summer Sunsets.
Unless WWWIII has started.
It’s pretty because there’s crap in the sky to catch the light!
Or:
Went to Maui for our honeymoon, was looking forward to what we were sure would be a spectacular sunset over the beach. The sun just kinda dropped below the horizon, very little color. STUPID CLEAN AIR.
Hawaii sucks. Stay out of here.
Buy new build construction in Phoenix.
I gotta leave in a week. Pretty weak.
Weak-ass no-color sunset.
Can’t wait to invest in Phoenix: America’s Blast Furnace
Where has my Sploitation journey taken me this week?-to Filipino soft core melodramas. The trope that I see most often is sex worker couples trying to escape the biz and being dragged back in. Hershi De Leon is an actress that is in a fair amount of these films and she’s a bit of a stunner.
Certainly seems nice!
I had a Filipino woman in my house today! And she brought a friend!
/let your imagination run wild, because I guarantee it will be sexier than the reality
Doubles vacuuming! When that becomes an olympic sport you will be laughing.
How does teh Hippo feel about Courtland Sutton signing for 4 years???
Hope Orson is adjusting & her anger at Firth & the universe in general is fading a bit.

Might be AI slop. Don’t care. So cute.
It’s AI. One rabbit vanishes and another has two heads.
Naw, that’s just regular ol bunny magic. Like the kind they use to appear & disappear out of and into top hats.
Wife just told me we need a new vacuum. It reminded me of this dumb joke.
What’s the difference between a vacuum and a wife? After 10 years your vacuum will still suck.
/somewhere, Rikki feels sad and anxious, but isn’t sure why
Strangely enough, I feel the opposite. Played tennis pretty well this evening and got that nice endorphin rush going on.
Quality dick joke. Glad you’re feeling better.
Wife was in Florida last week for work stuff, came home ill. Lesson as always: don’t be around people ever.
I had to go to the laundry room today. I fully expect to come down with a bad case of Old People Cooties by tomorrow.
Good thing that we can all get our own rows in Anaheim!
My neighbor’s girlfriend was also sick; sounded similar to what I had. I would not be the least bit surprised to find out that we’re in the midst of a new plague and the government is just handwaving it away as everyone in America having allergies at the same exact time because they didn’t drink enough whale cerebral-spinal fluid.
Nah, just a new Covid strain going around
The Wizards in Wuhan are certainly making the strains debilitating more than deadly now.
#NuNuAIDS??
if only
Exactly!
