Tennessee Williams has gone to the DARK SIDE???

Just wait until he shoots a percussion gun. Obviously TW is maturing as a competitor! Good luck, Sir, and enjoy the frustrations! -
Thinkin' we may have that for supper!

Nope. If it's a good rib, it doesn't need a coat or even sauce. If it's not a good rib, don't eat it. Like corn dogs just fine. With mustard.

this You can get Acetone at Ace Hardware or a paint store.

Excellent! I'm relieved at the absence of Mexican flags.

Does wearing hoods make people stupid?

IF they are given transportation to the demonstration/riot. They proved they don't know where they are! -

They vote, they have babies... Show this to anyone who tells you that public schools do a fine job. -
Interesting question, I don't know the answer for court reporters. But for a few years I moonlighted as a medical transcriptionist because I had a decent medical vocabulary (veterinarian) and decent typing speed. But the full-time transcriptionists were faster typists, so I got stuck listening to Dictaphone tapes from foreign born doctors with heavy accents and residents who were dictating reports with a mouthful of sandwich at 3 AM. I made the transcripts as readable as possible after deciphering/editing their mangled syntax and pronunciation, and never had a complaint from my bosses.

BTDT! Thank goodness for scopes that gather more light than a human pupil!

Their Branson show is delightful! Most performances are sold out so if you want to see them in person plan ahead!

Our power was restored overnight; we came home from sleeping at a friend's house to find our porch light was on! Thanks for all your kind thoughts.

Not yet (11 AM CDT) but the neighbors across the street have power, so I think we're getting close! Springfield has resumed power to 90% of the outages that happened on Sunday. We just happen to be part of the remaining 10%. Cleaned out the spoilables from fridge and freezer since trash pickup was this morning. We are spending some time with a friend in a part of town that has power. This photo is about half a block from our friend's home. Spring rains have softened the ground so much that seeing trees uprooted like this is unfortunately common. So, a couple of days without power isn't bad by comparison. We will be ok. Thanks for thinking of us!

As I recall, this was the one of the reasons Representatives (Congressmen) were elected by citizens, but Senators were chosen by State Legislators, two per state. I still don't understand the rationale for having our two-per-state senators elected like our representatives are. I know the 17th Amendment changed Article 3 of section 1 of the Constitution, but I think it was better the way the Founders wrote it.

Tornados, straight winds, and freezing rain is bad enough; I can't imagine living with hurricanes.

Lord save us from tree huggers! I did a perimeter check this morning. My power line is fine. Clear from pole to weatherhead. But two of my neighbors have their power lines compromised by large broken limbs. I figure I'm not getting my power back until they get their power lines free of limbs, so I reported their addresses to the utility company. Turns out neither had reported their situations. This is in one neighbor's yard beyond my back fence. Can't say the line is on the ground, but close. Gotta get my little battery powered chainsaw and clean up my own. Fortunately not near any lines!

We lost power at 5PM (now 8:30) after heavy rain and 60-80 mph winds came through the Springfield, MO area. Our son and daughter in law live close to where they took this photo. Bless the linemen; I have a hunch this will take some time!

I love staying at home most of the time. If you can swing retirement, do it as soon as possible. It minimizes contact with jerks.

Another Alpoesque question on Paper Towels
J-BAR #18287 replied to Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Nope. We all agree with you, and if "blood" doesn't respect you, you don't have to endure them. -
Since We Have One, Why Not The Other? Your Most Underrated Gun

Your nose, your gun! 😉 -
Perhaps such testing could have prevented North Korea's recent embarrassment.

Aw man, I hate when that happens.

Buffalo, Missouri is about 43 miles north of Springfield. The high school mascot is the bison. Come cheer for the Buffalo bisons! 😂
