Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks tl;dr of last week as decided by my brain.  There’s no reason as to why some comments make it and others don’t. Seriously. There isn’t.

Got my wife’s cold. Great start to the week. Is 8PM too early to go to bed?
Asking for me.
And work is just crazy as I have a big release this week, so need to be around and all productive like. Boooo

Without further ado, here are the comments of the week.


Yesterday we went to an Italian deli/restaurant in Burbank and a chatty guy in front of us was giving us very enthusiastic recommendations for everything they served and when we got to the end of line the cashier handed us a plate of three cannolis that the guy bought for us. Super nice thing to do. I wish all people were that nice and would just randomly buy me things, the world would be a better place.

Me: “Try this, let me know what you think.”

Girlie: “Woof! So much ginger!”

Me: “Huh, ok.”

Girlie: “But I Really Like Ginger!”

Me: “But it was too much?”

Girlie: “Uh..umm. yes. BUT I REALLY LIKE THE SOUP.”

Me: “I’m just looking for your honest opinion, that’s it. If you don’t like it at all just tell me. Everyone has their preferences, it’s fine.”*

I am enjoying the feud between myself and Don, and I look forward to discussing it further with him the next time I go to Puerto Rico and he takes us to some ramshackle little road side restaurant that somehow has the best roast pork on the island.

BFC Reporting live from Jury Duty!

Update: I have checked in and am now in the Jurors’ Lounge.

This has been BFC Reporting live from Jury Duty!

Update #2: After 4 loops through, the woman running the jurors’ lounge asked if anyone still wanted to hear the instructional film anymore. Literally no one wanted to, so she mercifully has left it on pause. No actual movement on if anyone in this room is being called into a courtroom.

Update #3: the first jury pools have been called. I am not in them. Back to my book.

Update #4: they have now called another jury pool. I am also not in that one. There are probably only like 40 or so or us left in the jurors’ lounge.

Final update: the expected third jury pool is not needed, therefore the rest of us are dismissed. We are helpfully advised that we are not obligated to return to work as jury duty is 9-5, and that this fulfills our civic obligation for the next two years. I am now going to get some chicken for lunch.

Predictions are fun!

1) The Dems will take the House easily, and the Senate will be 51-49 one way or another. NOW LET’S WATCH HOW WRONG THIS IS!

b) Trump dies from a stroke this summer. There will be much rejoicing. (This cannot be 50% wrong)

pi) The next ICE killing will be of an ICE guy. Maybe even friendly fire! But it will be blamed on a Honduran or possibly a Sri Lankan.

69) Timothy ChallahBread will win Best Actor for playing ping pong and no one will be happy about it. Meanwhile, Michael B. Jordan plays kickass twins named Smoke and Stack and everyone shrugs. I’m already really pissed about this.

potato) Dammit, this could have been its own column. Maybe next year.

Couple of beers, couple of bourbons. Had an argument with the wife, then she came back to sit. I was telling her about you guys and the meetup in Vegas.

“You should go, I’ll go and play the slots.”

Wanted to know my name on this board, I refused to tell her. Wanna know why?

Cause she’s the nosiest person I know. I need some modicum of privacy.

I made terrific fish tacos with blue corn tortillas and curtido – that’s what the recipe said – last night for a lovely woman with à Serena Williams ass last night and then paid thousands less than I expected for my car repairs today.
I feel like a hundred dollars. At a five dollar party. The world can shove it, enjoy the good days.

Nothing scheduled-anything going on?

Lol, TCM is showing “Gaslight” tonight against Trump’s blithering.

1) That’s VERY funny
2) That movie was frustrating. Like, screaming at the screen at the dumb person in a horror movie. But then, women were to be seen and not heard back then I guess.

Last year’s runner-up Inter Milan is about to be bounced from the Shempions League by something called Bodø/Glimt.

I’ve arrived here in lovely* Menifee, CA. My noise measurement will be done at noon tomorrow, so I’ve got 23 hours left to kill. The hotel was kind enough to let me check in 2.5 hours early, so that’s definitely a plus.

Bears repeating: El Cuñao is NOT ramshackle. It’s folkloric. But yeah, the only bottle service you’ll get is a Medalla smashed on your head for dissing the décor. By another patron, staff would never do that. Those folks are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

I’ll take 2 of those and 2 Caribs. Put them in a bucket full of ice and I’ll turn the thermostat up to 80 and put some Buffett on

One of the best beers I ever had was an ice cold Medalla after a day sliding down waterfalls and then snorkeling on the beach. Is it a good beer in general? Not particularly. Did that individual beer cut through all the sweat and salt water with icy cold goodness like it was its job? Oh Lawd Yes.

Those are the best beers.

Horatio Cornblower

Whether described as ‘ramshackle’ or ‘folkloric’ if you happen to be in Puerto Rico you need to go to El Cunao.

The meal for the three of us, including several beers, was something like $75 with tip and I don’t think I was hungry again until breakfast the next day. And it was delicious.
