I once consumed a couple of hits of blackstar blotter acid and was enjoying an esoteric mental tour of contemplative topics. It was all thoroughly satisfying unti as an under-aged highschool student I had be home by curfew or be in ALL kinds of trouble.
For the record I made it home close enough to curfew but was confronted by my mom in the kitchen for some minor offense. All I could think about was the size of my pupils and concerns that mom might possibly notice. Fortunately she did not.

We've been babysitting ribs on the grill listening to Willy Nelson all day, which doesn't suck considering we had three feet of snow on the hot tub Monday morning. Slaw is all set, and the Mr forgot to get a card for our anniversary, which gives me leverage for a year; We've mutually done this multiple times in our 18 years together, so it's something to laugh about without hurt feelings.
And you'd think that a couple of warmongering Repubes in Congress might have something to say about basically funding Russia and Iran. But nope. *crickets*
Remember when the off-topic and open thread stuff was taken so seriously that we had to really do some twisting to make connections between what we wanted to write about and the main topic?
Not to brag, but I considered myself gifted with a certain level of adroitness in this area. Perhaps my distinguishing characteristic.
In light of this, because we are talking about waffle houses, which is about food, I would just like to bring up the fact that I had three fucking brilliant ideas in my pantry remodel project, which is so far completely theoretical. Yes, I I shall regale you with details, completely asked for.
Everything is coming out of there. Sheet rock that has not been finished will be finished, taped painted. Then I was just planning on putting up shelves, but wait!
The north wall is covered with pegboard, not very usefully. If that all came down, I could put shelving in there between the studs. It would only be about 4 inches deep, but that’s still deep enough to hold cans and bottles and spices, and then I could put another layer of shelves built on the studs on that wall.
The east wall is exterior, and it’s got an open bay next to the wall at the top that has insulation in it that the cats keep knocking down. I could take down that insulation, and build an insulated wall, floor to ceiling, nothing heavy duty, just a couple of inches of foam or something on the inside, put shelves in there with doors for access, put ventilation at the top and bottom, so it didn’t get musty, and then have cool storage against that wall.
And then, finally on the south wall, which is an interior wall, I could access up at the top storage space between the bays that go back between the I beams between the ceiling and the floor. Just build a little finished boxes that would fit in between the beams, and go back a couple of feet. Then I could build a shelf across the front of that so the wall space could also be utilized.
And then floor to ceiling exposed shelves on the north and south walls.
What could possibly go wrong?
I could also put some soft flooring in there in case anyone teleported into the pantry. I think it would have a genuinely tardis feel to it when I was done.
This is mildly amusing and as real as the teleportation... Maybe he'll go back in time next time...

I really need to learn to delete the shots I don't edit...
Some of them might be incriminating after all.

Lemme guess: The greeting was "And where have YOU been?"
Dude, why don't you teleport up your own ass, then shit yourself out, then eat yourself.
OK??
Succinct, I like it.
Great alibi for his inevitable arrest in flagrante delicto with a minor "Officer, I don't know how I got here!"

I live in the WRONG Washington.

Shit! I forgot cornbread!
Happy Anniversary!!!
You...you forgot the cornbread?!? To your room (and no dessert!)
Wait...*he* forgot cornbread! Lol
Add that to list "no card" list ... another year of amusement! Salut to 18 years!
Drummer Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats is 65 years old today. Here's the band with "Stampede":

I also saw them a couple of times while in college. A lot of fun and fine playing.
I saw them in Poughkeepsie in 81 or 82 or so.
They were very good, especially Setzer, a fine guitarist.
I have one question. When he teleports to the Waffle House does he still have to wait in line for a table or does he just teleport right into a chair?
Excellent question. He's quite vague with the details.
Yes, he is. Some intrepid journalist needs to get those details.
And does he arrive scattered, smothered, and covered?
Does the food teleport into his stomach?
I drink this pint of tequila and teleport to the ally beside a Waffle House, it's uncanny.

US Treasury Sec Scott Bessent’s decision to lift sanctions on Iranian oil at sea shows just how badly Trump’s war has failed.
Iran will get $14 billion from the deal, the first time the US is buying Iranian oil since 1996.
Trump’s Omnishambles: lives lost, billions wasted, now he’s paying Iran.
It's all so gobsmacking.
And you'd think that a couple of warmongering Repubes in Congress might have something to say about basically funding Russia and Iran. But nope. *crickets*
Right – so we are funding Iran's war effort *against* us (along with Russia's war against Ukraine).
The lengths Republican politicians will go to to avoid upsetting their voters because of high gas etc. prices . . .
As long as gas prices go back to where they were before the war, it was all worth it. Right?
Narrator: Gas prices are never going back to where they were before the war.
But I was told…
Oh, my sweet summer child...
I get that a lot.
Me too. And I'm pushing 73.
If they go down. And I'm not saying that just because I don't think the amount of oil this "deal" nets will make a dent.
Not one dent.
Winning . Yep, so much winning. I can't take all the winning.
no wonder he's been squawking about planeloads of cash
I teleported once.
Then I came down from the hit of purple pyramid and was OK.
This whole teleporting thing sounds like a pathetic attempt to explain the anal probe he showed up with at the Waffle House.
