The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

Way back in a past life I worked at this warehouse. Every so often, we had to break up old crates and pallets.

I came up w a great trick. Put the forks of the forklift all the way to the right side. Pick up the crate in question with it hanging all the way off to the right.

Go at full speed and sideswipe the dumpster. The crates would just explode into pieces like this.

Plus it was fun!

I like breaking things.
Too bad you didn't have an old tank you could use to run over them! 🤣🤣
 
Happy Wednesday!!!


So, four horses and a coyote call. Wat ordered this call thingie on Amazon, maybe. It makes all kinds of distressed critter noises. There is one of squalling coyote puppies, which is, I guess, to lure the mommies in. The one that seemed to make as much sense as any was the sound of a very unhappy bunny. Sad bunny makes noises to draw in predators. Okay. So I went out on the back deck with the noisemaker and a rifle (just in case - I had no expectations) and started playing a litany of racket. I was figuring that maybe some of those chicken killers were over in the far trees on the other side of where the mule lives.


There is a look that a horse has when you/something has its undivided attention. S/he looks intently ahead and the ears are following the eyes. The ears won't lie down forward, but they point in that general direction and stay put because it's looking at whatever. You follow the ears with your eyes and you can tell what he's looking at. The only thing that the bunny call drew was four rather judgmental horses over to the house side of the fence line. They were all looking at me and 8 ears were pointed at me, like "Hey. h000man, what you you doing to that bunny? What's wrong with the bunny??" It's the only time I can recall ever seeing all 4 of them together united in one purpose. Besides eating, and even then they have assigned stalls and troughs and such.


So I gave up and went in.
You just got judged by a horse tribunal! 🤣🤣🤣
 
I’m going to go out on a limb and say he’s laser focused on the artillery fire! I could be wrong of course. How those horses didn’t bolt at the first salvo of a battery of 12 pounders I’ll never know…

Well, it’s all coming together…momma’s contractors, wife surgery, and now my doc’s orders…when the arty starts to rain down…

Won’t be on much over the next few. Keep the light on for me. I’ll leave a nice Santa Fe MZ…enjoy and talk to y’all soon.
Take care, H! Be a good nurse to your wife. Try not to piss her off! 😅😅😘

Didn't catch up on the thread, too tired. This month is my birthday and the local movie theater offers a free bucket of popcorn if you come in during your birthday month. So I went to see "Mickey 17" tonight. By myself, sadly. There were three other people in the theater so it was quiet. Interesting movie, still absorbing some of the ideas.

Hope everyone sleeps well, coffees well, and has a great next 24 hours.
Did you like the movie?
