I had to drop the car off at the dealership yesterday (12/30) for a major service recall that's going to take umpteen days. Got a rental for the duration. A Bronco! It's ginormous!

I'm heading into 2026 in something that could probably take out a Russian tank if one was coming down the road at me.

>>>Trump going War of 1812 on his own White House wasn’t the very worst — nobody got hurt, that we know of

As a formal Naval safety officer, I can state with some assurance that a lot of people were exposed to asbestos.

Thank you, you summarized my feelings about this shitty year precisely. Hope 2026 brings some blessed relief for you and for us all. Thanks for helping to keep me sane.

Picked up some NY Strips and a cheesecake at Costco. Got fresh green beans, baking potatoes, mushrooms and onions. At least the last day of this wretched year will go out with a good meal.

After dinner, it is a night of Marx Bros. movies.

Happy New Year all!

And don't forget, check your registrations and check them often in the new year. And if you are choosing to do mail-in ballots? Cast your vote as early as possible, use a dropbox if need be. Never forget, if voting weren't powerful, Republicans wouldn't work so hard to prevent you from doing it!

We have a big job coming for fall 2026!

Hope the new year finds you well!

After Trump's election, all the feds were working on transition documents and acting like it was a normal event. Many people hadn't read P2025. I did and expected a lot of ugly change. My wildest imagination never ever thought it would be as bad as 2025. We're taking bets in the office on the next round of hell for feds. Fuck off 2025.

I am recommending radical, wild, extravagant decency as the primary weapon against the indecent forces seeking to destroy our country. Stop them with simple human decency, it's their kryptonite.

Thanks Rebecca and happy new year, we got through 2025 which was worse in some ways than I thought it would be and better in other ways. The republicans are weak, sad, flailing fascist poop - we need to keep kicking them.

There is an obituary that I am VERY much looking forward to perusing over several chilled adult beverages in the forthcoming New Year.

Actually that obit will manifest as frontpage headlines all over the world. And the thoroughly overjoyed, dancing and jumping up and down with glee response from the global population may well indeed momentarily compel planet Earth to wobble briefly on its' axis.

And once he's gone, all of his enablers will fight to get their scandal-ridden tell-all published first.

<<THIS!!!>>

And actually, the obituary should be constrained to, "He's dead. YAY!"

So Canes and Bucs down in the Cotton Bowl tonight.

Canes are 9 1/2 point dawgs.

IMO these lines with big spreads are sucker bets.

Here trying to get the Columbus faithful to part with their $.

Too much money in Miami/Fl so bookies give the points.

I could be wrong. But dawgs seem to be winning more than

usual lately. Or at least cover the line.

Well, at least it is legal. Of course today that is not saying a lot.

I guess we will see.
