Pabilto, anyone quoting Jello, I’m just gonna dig. Fist bump.
Book report: Revolt in 2100, Robert A. Heinlein, 1939, 1940, 1953. Collection of 3 stories: “If This Goes On-,” The US is ruled a Prophet with strict adherent to his rules and laws required. Coventry, as the title implies, a place where those who can’t behave with civility are given the option of having their brain adjusted so they are fit for society or going to Coventry. Misfit is about landing on a comet, changing it to become a space station, and riding it into a fixed orbit. I like this one better than the other two. Still, they are each good stories.
I think Heinlein and other science fiction writers did their prediction based on logical extensions. These stories got published back then but I would expect a hard time to get published in today’s world.
A shout out to Claycordians who may be ill or alone this Christmas, and to those who have lost someone or are missing folks: Christmas is for us all, in the good times and not so good.
Question: what small thing can a person do to feel a little cheer? For example, I like the sound of breakfast sizzling on the stove; making a phone call to a talkative friend that may require listening to several years worth of stories; a mug of hot coffee or chocolate; playing YouTube Christmas jazz; a good book or audio book, too. Merry Christmas, wherever you are!
Has Sears reopened at Sun Valley?
BOB,
.
It’s open, but I believe you have to enter through the mall entrances. Down stairs is half empty and upstairs the racks are fewer and not as full as they were in the past. Sad future of a once great store and company.
I heard an entire floor in MACY’s is closed off.
Hanne; ???
The top floor has been closed for a while. I thought they were remodeling, maybe not 🙁
Yes, no retail on Macy’s 3rd floor, that has been a couple of years already. The bathrooms are still open and you can take elevator up. The floor is being used storing merchandise, for shipping and online orders. It will not be used for retail again.
Not that I know of, I was off yesterday. Have had no message from management. The Mall closes at 8 p.m. although right now I believe they are open to 9 p.m. Macy’s is always open to 9 p.m. and right now our Holiday hours are to 11 p.m. However, because the mall closes before we do, we have to close the doors to the mall, so you can only enter and exit from the street entrances.
I always have many things to talk about leading up to the weekend. But when when the weekend is here, I can’t remember any of them.
Write it down as you think of it and then you can post it here on Fridays. I sometimes have the same problem.
Red light running is out of control. There is not a day this week where on my way to work, which takes me all of 15 minutes, I have not witnessed one or more red light runners. One day 3, I repeat 3 cars passed after the light had turned green!!! What are people thinking?
They are thinking, “I made it and that’s all that matters”.
The bay area is a selfish place second only to Los Angeles.
Where is everybody? As if we didn’t know!
Chiefs fans are calling Taylor Swift the Chief’s Yoko Ono!
LoL!
Now who can argue with that? Just about everyone!

@DR. JELLYFINGER…. Question: Which of the two sings better?
Yoko sings? Is that what that noise is that she makes?
Tommy Smothers died yesterday in Santa Rosa, he was 86. Unfortunately when him and his brother had their TV show it came on opposite Bonanza on Sunday nights so I rarely got to watch it. RIP
Truth:
Don’t trust a man with smooth, soft hands.
No one on their death bed ever wished they had gotten angrier at politics during their lifetime. I tell myself that anyway.
Don’t get too worked up who kneels when or who protests about what, worry about who’ pays their parking tickets and shows up for jury duty.
Your kids are only exceptional and special to you and whoever you pay. And the grand parents, but that’s just a combination of ego and revenge.
2024 is gonna savage my favorite British rock idols. And the cast of Dynasty.
Torque at the shaft don’t mean torque at the point of friction. Losses mount.
Plastics cause cancer. Not so much a truth really, more a suspicion of mine.
If you leave a dog alone all day while you go to work, immediately I don’t like you. And I’m not above planning your demise. But that’s between me and the jury I guess. My lawyer and bank account can worry about ‘truth’.
The faster you drive, the less error you can correct for. Yours and others. Have a vehicle capable and be sober and attentive. And just know that might not be enough. So full coverage is the way to go.
I probably, maybe, might not shoot you for stealing my stuff. Even right in front of me. Try and steal my gun though, all bets are off. Or my limes. Put my heart and soul into those limes.
The closer you find a spot to the door of the store, the longer you’ll wait in line. It’s axiomatic.
A man should know how to play a hand of five card draw, change his brake pads/rotors,and skin a game animal and so should every woman. My first Commandment. Working on the rest.
Teach your kids how to read a paper map. Not a truth, just kind advice.
Roulette has the best odds but Black Jack gets all the attention. Weird. Again, not so much a truth but an observation.
Kindness is stronger. No matter what you compare it too.
At the range, the louder the voices of the shooters, the larger the groups they shoot. I don’t make the rules. I just observe and report to you good people. Shrug.
God is either not all that attentive or nor all that compassionate. No other explanation. Childhood leukemia pretty much rests my case. Question is, can I make that argument when I’m called to judgement. Damn sure gonna try.
Enough with the Rob Lowe already.
Oddly, still want more Taylor Swift.
To be a fully qualified US Marine, in good standing is a life long accomplishment to be proud of. A battlefield multiplier on any battlefield. Expert riflepersons. But if you really need to chase a ‘mofo down to the ground like a wolf chases down prey, call a Ranger.
To live chronically well below the poverty line and still be obese puzzles me. And in a weird way makes me proud to be American. No other country can pull that off. No big ones anyway.
I haven’t touched a door handle in public with bare hands in probably three years. Gotta get creative sometimes, but my record holds.
When I watch golf on t.v., I like everything except the players, the fans and the announcers.
We have not gotten a full accounting on the 9/11 attacks, the culpability of the House of Saud and the coverup by our government for the royal saudi family. Lower caps intentional. Truest thing I’ll post here tonight.
No one likes Jimmy Fallon. Stop it.
The time you spend in libraries and used bookstore don’t count against your life span. Ok, that’s not true, but it’d be cool if it was.
I love seafood, but don’t trust it enough anymore to eat it. Is that a truth? It is to me.
Rock salt hurrrrrts. For hours. Truth.
No matter the practical indignities of urination, the puzzling misery of menstruation, no matter incredibly painful childbirth… ladies…if you’ve never ‘zipped up your manhood’ in your zipper drunkenly, on the side of Cheyenne Mountain at 2:00 am in December and then fallen down said mountain, almost to your car and then found you had lost your keys on that epic slide and were due at formation at 6:00 am, no excuses, which was now 3 1/2 hours away, well I don’t know what my point is, but there’s some truth to be found in there. Not that I found it. Or my keys. Long a$$ed walk to Ft. Carson. Did it though.
You can crack two, but never three eggs in a pan without breaking one. Always the last one too.
If I boycotted every business I objected too, I’d save a lot of money. Life would suck though.
I tried metal straws. Nope.
For once I’d like to have a dentist that wasn’t weird.
15,000 steps a day is for wankers. 22, 000 or just sit on your couch and smoke dope all day. Or both maybe, I’m not a doctor.
The older I get, the less important what time it is, is.
If the IRS could project a number within reason of the tax they could expect to collect over the next five years, I’d just pay it now to avoid the aggravation for the next five Aprils.
People who mistake compassion for weakness are easy to make cry. They never see it coming. And it’s fun.
If there’s a vaccine, I’ll take it. Don’t even have to know what it’s for. Call me a fool. Until I outlive you.
I’ve had everyone’s best shot at eggplant dishes and they were all terrible. Think I ever told my mom, my wife or my mother-in-law? Heck no. You take one for the team because that’s what a young man did back then. You ate it. you smiled and you asked for seconds.
According to NPR, the only nobility that can be found is in victim hood. I think we can do better than that. I know we can do better than that.

Grandma’ had an over/under. She taught me how to pack the rock salt shells….
🙂
Side by side was my Grammys game. Was fond of birdshot. Now she never shot her grandchildren mind you, but I know she thought about it.
God Bless S. 👊
Dang! 😝 Not one Like? I get the Dislike’s, I account for that and kinda dig those too. But not one Like? Ungrateful bastids. Hopefully the Mayor gave you a full refund. 😏
