Times are a' changin...

My father was a blue collar foreman for J&L Steel on the banks of the Monongahela River in Pittsburgh, PA.  He finally got his GED when he was in his 50's, and we proudly hung it on the hallway wall near the bedrooms.  My dad could fix anything; duct tape, hammer or a toilet plunger, and most every problem could be resolved.  

During breakfast this morning, my neighbor texted me;   

 
Reached out to our septic maintenance service;  they needed to see what errors were being flagged...
 
 Sent the photo over to them. I hope I don't need to jack my PC into the box.
 
I really miss the good old days when you only needed a 
plunger to fix a toilet and not a degree in Computer Science.
 

Today, in pointless sports photography...

 OH!  RIGHT IN THE NUTS!!!!

For some reason, that was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the photo on the AP news thread... give that photographer a Pulitzer!

 

Sunday Morning Sip

Good bye, September!  

Ah, yup. 
 
Savoring the green. 
Savoring the comfortable morning coffee.
It will be gone soon.
 

Just a reminder... 

And AWESOME for "Connect the Dots"! 

Works for cats, too.  
"On the couch. On the bed.  On the couch.  On the bed." 

Thank you, Ricky. 

God works in mysterious ways. 

Problem solved! 

Another solution to a problem. 

Thank you, again, Ricky! 

Yes, must overreact for the Right Wing media. 


...and bad taste. 
 
 My favorite!

Saturday Morning Sip

This is it!  The FINAL Saturday of September! 

About the only time I consider
myself "two fisted" about anything,
it's about drinking coffee. 
 
And I played with the later!! 

 
 
 
 
 
That tracks...
 


MORE AI DATA CENTERS!!! 


It was foggy here! 



 
That tracks. 

 

My favorite philosophy!
I hate when people ride me for being retired;
I served my time. If I want to sit on my ass, 
I am going to sit on my ass! 
Or not.  MY decision. 

Today, that warning would come with the
disclaimer; "We are not responsible if you
attempt to eat the box"
 
Let the sunshine in!
