My wife called the Police and the Fire Department last night. Two of our neighbors were setting off aerial fireworks. WTF? We live on a hill with way too much very dry brush everywhere. The jerks were arrested. They are MAGA'ts. I was at Simon Bolivar Int. Airport. Things are not good here.

This is a conversation that happens too often in this house.

I can not even imagine the current occupier of the White House singing along with so many songs. Or even staying awake for all this time. Thank You to the greatest President of my lifetime. Mr. Barack Obama. I now await my turn to visit this new presidential museum.

Good morning & happy Friday🌞 Here is your reminder that yes, science is real, whether you think so or not

I am sorry all you Blues fans, but Classic 70's rock is hitting me hard tonight. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young just came up. These are all way back in my archives. Next will be Janice. It goes on.

Can you tell what is on my turntable this afternoon?

Money, it's a crime Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie Money, so they say Is the root of all evil today But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're giving none away

Money, get away You get a good job with more pay and you're OK Money, it's a gas Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash New car, caviar, four-star daydream Think I'll buy me a football team

This current administration in the USA could use a listen to this song. Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange A walk-on part in the war For a lead role in a cage?

Verse 1: So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell? Blue skies from pain? Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell?

Everyone, PLEASE call your congressional representative now! To vote no on ANY form of FY27 Interior and Environment spending bill (H.R. 9171 Sec. 441)—it will reinstate the unlawful leases of twin metals and destroy the boundary waters. CALL NOW and please spread the message!!

We will not stand down.

The Everton recruitment team, pretty much every summer ;)

I want to put this out to everyone. If you now or in the future show ANY UFC bs, first it will be bypassed. If you do it twice you will be blocked. I have no time for this gladiator stuff in my life. Even if you are normally coherent. UFC = blocked.

Days or weeks. I long for those days again.

Will there be outdoor No Kings Protests on Sunday?? The local Democrats have given up. WTF? I will be there no matter what. The world needs us on the streets. I need us on the streets. Follow me and show up for our nation and the world.

I just watched 'New Nation' for 3 minutes. They said the whole of the world is anxiously waiting for the UFC fight tomorrow night at what was our white house. Holy feces. These reporters have never had a personal thought.

My dear wife wants this photo as my avatar. I think it is just another old man. Let me know..

I am so tired.

I do hope that our "Fearless Leader"tm reaches his final big Mac tomorrow. I have a bottle of Wellers black ink that I would love to open in the honor of his passing. Come on Donnie make my day. Is he dead yet?

I'm attending California Democratic Party's event, “NO KINGS on June 14th with Democrats of Greater Riverside” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

RELEASE THE UNREDACTED EPSTEIN FILES TODAY, DONNIE DEMENTIA AND TODD BLANCHE.

I found a good use for when Weather (Extm heat) keeps you inside. Scan old family photos. Listen to women sing the blues and drink great whiskey at 10 in the morning. Yeah, at 0900 it was 92f. Gunna get hot today.

Well, shit! A neighbor KID, brought in her banjo. After a couple of minutes, she started Foggy Mountain Breakdown. Now, I will have to sit out the rest of the hour. That was just too much fun. She did not even break a sweat. I am dying with shredded fingertips.

Well?

It is cooler here today, so I put off my bike ride. Instead, I am reading bsky feed and playing blues on my old Dobro.

Today I had to buy gasoline for the first time in over three years. I wanted to drive my old Austin-Healy Sprite. The remnant of a receipt said I filled it up for $11.12. Today, the same amount of gas costs me $55.69. But there is no real inflation. I think I will just drive my electric car.

This administration also will pass.

Did I do that? Yes, yes we did.

I am watching News Nation, please don't judge. They are showing live from New Jersey protests. They are saying the protesters are out of control. It appears there are more police than protesters. Our local, Riverside, CA, sheriff is speaking. They comment that protesters have masks and goggles. Duh.

Shoutout to cats for getting their claws stuck in things, and when you help, they get offended.
