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

I know. I just don't like the taste of the full sugar ones. I do limit myself now. I used to drink a six pack of Diet Coke during a 12 hour night shift.


I'd knock out a 2 liter Diet Coke while installing a set of kitchen cabinets in a new house. My brother would toss off a sixpack before 9AM daily. One reacclimates to the sugar in the regular sodas. Water is best of all, and that's most of what Wat drinks any more.
 
I never took other's word for something regulatory related. Trust but verify!


And that thingie right there a good manager makes!!!


I do cheat these days, however. I have a great kid working for me. He wants to learn. He has character and tells the truth. He knows what I'm looking for, so he can check most of the littler stuff in my stead.
 
Thanks and Likewise!
We thought we were done in TX, motored 24 hours to Cameron, LA, had a good place for crew change next Tuesday... aaaaaand, we're motoring 24 hours back to Port Aransas TX....

I'm hoping to backread some of the Spoon, but I KNOW I'll never catch up!

I miss it when I'm gone!
Well we got ya when your near land and on land. This crew change stuff has been messed up for your last two cycles. 🫤
 
Good morning denizens of the diner. The old dog and I decided to sleep in. I woke up to news of a shooting and death of a young man not far from where I live. This is a very rare incident in my city. Nonetheless, I am concerned.

As OM is not around, it’s time to fill in with memes.IMG_1355.jpeg
 
Sorry so late. Asshole ISP doing an upgrade. I got zero notice even though I signed up for outage notifications.

So no chance to catch up at all.

Outage may go as far out as next Wednesday. If so, it's gonna 🤬 my week up SO badly!

Take care everyone: 🤗
Let them know how angry you are!

And if the outage goes that long you will not be able to work!!

Sorry, Likes…. Hopefully it gets squared away soon.

😡☹️🫤
 
Awake after a fashion. Stepped out on the front porch. It's raining/rainy. Humid as all diddlefuck, too. Gotta go pick up my new rifle this morning and then toddle off to the blue box store to score some rags, microfiber towels and machine oil.


I'm hoping that my thought on what I did wrong with the old Winchester bolt last weekend is correct. If so, I can get that project cleaned and headed to completion this weekend. It's gonna rain all weekend, most likely.


The grass finally needs cutting, but it'll wait.

Nah… skip all that. Our guidelines are pretty simple.

Be respectful. Altho there’s some innuendo it’s not pickup thread.

No pickups of the women folk.

No politics, religion or drama.

Pull up a chair and start talking!

Where are you joining us from? I’m from NJ.
 
I found a good barber. He went (back) to prison. Another lost his (fucking) mind and ghosted us all. One shop had two guys. The owner was in a hurry and always cut my hair lopsided. His partner was good and got it level, but his eyesight started crapping out on him.


So I went and bought clippers.


I imagine that all those guys are dead by now . . . .
It would be fun to see how much $$ I've NOT SPENT on haircuts over the decades....

I drink about 2 root beers a hitch, while on the boat, but I've been told "You are the MF'n YODA of Kool-aid!"
I never outgrew it, plus, it's cane sugar instead of HFCS.
I put it in the freezer until it forms perfect "snow" in the jug.
