Classic Blunder

"You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders – the most famous of which is 'never get involved in a land war in Asia' – but only slightly less well-known is this: 'Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line'!"

Her is a haiku for Wonderer67

Pumpkins gourds and firewood
Farmsteads give us abundance
Now just waiting for spring

I love that!!! Thanks so much K!!

Or they will not hold people to a standard... high performers are forced to go down to their level or risk being worked to damn death to get the job done....

Long damn day. Again. Feeling a bit oppressed. I'll tell the tale later. Off to bed . . . .

NO SPOILERS!!
It's Movie Night tonight

We got distracted watching Kraven on Netflix tonight. Started watching on the ellipticals, and the wife made me stop so we could finish it together later this evening.
I liked it. Kinda out there, but enough back story settings everything up.

As a lifelong "healthy insomniac" with no biorhythms left, I'm a firm believer that EVERYONE should get to enjoy siesta!
A 1½ hour nap, midday, is a game changer!

PRICELESS!
Come see the offshore oilfield and see how a 12 day project turns into 20+ days...
Pray it never goes union, or gas will be $10 per gallon.

@Wat_Tyler?

 

[Lilianna23]

Cook raw beets by grilling them.

I could try that. Do you peel them first? Slice? Or grill them whole?

 

[Lilianna23]

Yes.


We require daily.


And doughnuts . . . .

Probably best if she brings the donuts?

 

[Lilianna23]

I can confirm that. There is an old barn, if it is still standing, that has a hole in the side of it. I was clearing the shotgun that I inherited from my grandfather. It was a Marlin pump from the early 1900s that is now recommended not to be used.

It feels like there's more to this story...

 

[Lilianna23]

I wonder sometimes how I didn't.

Well, when you spend your days weasel wrangling, I wonder, too!

 

[Lilianna23]

Bossy wench!!!

Yep!

 

[Lilianna23]

Even when taxes go “down”, they still go up.

Yep! They never stay down!

 

[Lilianna23]

Does wine, beer and liquor fall under the “fermented food” family?

If so, I’m a fan!

I like wine, especially champagne! Not so much a fan of beer.

 

[Lilianna23]

Wait, I thought fricking and romping was discontinued? But traipsing is OK?

I’m so confused.

I heard frolicking and romping was disallowed by the thread originator. However, there appears to be a subversive group of frolickers here.

Ice like that breaks off a lot of branches.

We've had some epic ice storms here. The branches breaking from trees loaded with ice sounds like rifle fire!
