Saw a headline from Fox 'News,' so I didn't bother to read the article. However, the teaser said that VP Couchfucker joined in some training with the Navy SEALs yesterday. No idea how long he 'participated' before tapping out, but the SEALs remarked that they "went easy" on him.
One wonders just how far they dumbed down their training to fit the stupid bastard's level.

Now that I have that outta my system....What the absolute fuck?!?! Our fantastically brilliant most awesome brainiac's at the DOJ have no idea how Adobe Acrobat works? The intertubes is screaming at me this morning the redactions can be un-redacted with a simple copy/paste? These chucklefucks are either the dumbest fucks to ever walk the earth...OR...there is NO OR!
I have to believe The Universe is handing us one hell of an early Christmas present. Keep bein' stupid you stupid fucking fucks. It's a real hoot now ain't it?
And this is not the first time un-redactable redactions have been in the news. I would say these chuckleheads should have learned their lesson from that, but they are incapable of learning anything so I won't.
Come on, NYT Spelling Bee. “Raping” is not in your word list? It’s an ugly word, but it’s still a word and a moderately common one at that. On the other hand, “dildo” you have no problem with and I commend you. I even get mild amusement at the “Nice!” which appears briefly when you spell that one.
I won't hold it against you. If I knew nothing about him and someone showed me a photo and asked me to rate his looks, I'd probably have to admit he's fairly handsome.
The companies will pay ... since the US education system isn't graduating enough engineers. It's just another opportunity to bribe people. I do wonder what the dipshit is going to do with all this money ... I mean, he's due to drop dead any day now ...
I think I'm about as organized as can be for Christmas. Dinner tonight is lasagna bolognese. It's all assembled and sitting on the counter ready to be baked whenever we get hungry. For tomorrow, I'm going to make the cherry pie and the batter for Yorkshire pudding today. Also, I'll make the Bordelaise sauce today Don't see much point in killing myself at the last minute making a sauce that doesn't rely on pan drippings. Everything else I can do tomorrow. The rib roast is dry brining now in the fridge. Breakfast tomorrow is simple: smoked salmon, blinis, creme fraiche, shallots and capers with champagne, of course. Cleanup courtesy of Mr. O. I have plenty if anyone wants to stop by.
Oh crud, I need broccoli for chicken puffs! (I made and froze lasagna last week, but then my soul mate had a heartburn attack and crossed tomato sauce off the list.)
I've got my leftover shepard's pie and the fixin's for an instant pot pot roast if I want something slightly different. :-) Plus my local Chinese restaurant sent out an email reminding us that they'll be open over Xmas, so I can always have that instead.
Ah Xmas has started. The Mem and her dad are bickering over whether to make mulled cider or Bloody Marys tonight. And no autocorrect, there should not be an apostrophe in Marys.
Well, fuck, today sucks for people like me who HAVE to go to work, but it's only a half day, so not so bad. Still, lots to do. Christmas presents must be opened first, then making lasagna to feed 50 local unhoused people, and then my needle exchange route after that. Are banks open today? I could finally get my name changed on my bank account. That would be a nice present to myself.
I did in fact close on MY condo yesterday, so that's all done. Whew, what a relief. Finally. What will I inundated you with next? Probably grumbles about painting my bathrooms. I hope to get the cutting in done in both on Friday, then the rolling next Tuesday and Wednesday. Then it will just be a matter of the floors which I'll be pressuring my friend to get done ASAP so I can absolve him on the money he owes me. He has no idea I'm planning to do that, but I know owing me stresses him out. It will be a great surprise!
This year I got a birdhouse to put in the white elephant exchange (which I have managed not to call the "white santa" exchange thus far). I'm hoping it will catch someone's eye and get stollen at least once.
Back in the 80s, when I worked at a bank, banks were open on Christmas Eve, and at our bank, we got Christmas Day and the day after off, which was nice.
I too shall be working every day this week. I took the T-day vacation days plus an extra to go visit with the wife, so my coworker is getting the three Xmas days off. I think I might just take all of next week off, since otherwise I'd only work a single day if I took my 3 Xmas days plus New Year's.
I've got JUST ENOUGH vacation time to keep me off until next Friday. Stinks going back on a Friday, but I'm also glad I'll be able to knock out a few things before what will be a busy Monday.

I was wondering if this would be the case. I was too lazy to look into it.

It's Christmas Eve? 𝘈𝘭𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺?
I know, right?
NO!! My mistake. It's still weeks away. Now go back to sleep and I'll wake you back up in time to open your presents.
Thank you. I thought that I might have to get moving...
Good morning!

There's a medieval fig spread called rape (pronounced 'rah-pay' or 'ray-pee'). I had thought about making it for NYE to go with some Brie.
Fun fact: "canola" oil (which you buy at the supermarket) is a renaming (for marketing purposes) of rapeseed oil.
I've seen that word blocked on other word games as well.
Reading the word or any of its variations is a well known cause of the crime...
SCIENCE! strikes again.
How about "appeasement" ...

Shaving with a hangover, possibly before even being adequately sober...
Definitely not the voice of experience, just a thought...
Ah, the mismatched sideburns at the easter egg roll.
Don't tell anyone, but God he is handsome. Too bad everything else about him makes my insides curdle.
Ya like that 50's greasy kid stuffs in the hair look?
I dunno, he looks like a douchebro insurance salesman to me..
But I'm a guy, so..
He looks like what I imagine the asshole who texts me wanting to know if I'm interested in selling my house.
Used car lot salesperson.
My type...
Not mine, but I've got more embarrassing similar examples.
I won't hold it against you. If I knew nothing about him and someone showed me a photo and asked me to rate his looks, I'd probably have to admit he's fairly handsome.
Hey, we don't kink shame here ;)

He's trying really really hard to fuck EVERYTHING up.
I honestly think it's his incompetence and grifting along with The Heritage Foundation's "Tear It All Down" plan.
At this point, who would want to come, and to pay so much for the "privilege"?
The companies will pay ... since the US education system isn't graduating enough engineers. It's just another opportunity to bribe people. I do wonder what the dipshit is going to do with all this money ... I mean, he's due to drop dead any day now ...
Companies may be willing to pay, but will they get any takers?

There will be pictures.

Ah Xmas has started. The Mem and her dad are bickering over whether to make mulled cider or Bloody Marys tonight. And no autocorrect, there should not be an apostrophe in Marys.
Tell them to make both. Silent night, heavenly peace.
I have a box of Dutch supermarket pinotage to see me through.
And headphones?

Banks should be open, it's not a federal holiday and they have to be open if the Fed's open.
Going to stop off this AM.
Back in the 80s, when I worked at a bank, banks were open on Christmas Eve, and at our bank, we got Christmas Day and the day after off, which was nice.
I so need to get this done, it's the LAST THING.
And then you sing...

Living the dream.
Basically. I know everyone is just DYING to live in "affordable" condos.
I thought all condos were luxury condos. That's the only kind I can find.
Yeah, even though there's a cracked up tennis court here, I don't think these were ever "luxury."
