HUZZAH! Happy Birthday!

Happy to see Preacher is doing well! Go poke him with a stick until he comes on and says hi.

That got me thinking, what could be my midlife crisis? Motorcycles scare the hell out of me. I dont want by body shoveled up from the side of the highway. Nice sports car? Nah. Side girlfriend? Hahahahaha. Golfing? Its "ok" but its really just me and the boys having a good time. Maybe I need more hummingbird feeders? I love watching those little rascals and one even landed yesterday!

Back when I was on a Westpac deployment, and while we were just floating around, they put on a firepower demonstration for the crew. As I understand it this is a fairly rare event and we all went to the flight deck to watch. They slowly ramped up by firing off the CIWS a few times and had an F-14 fire a Sidewinder at a flare. Then other ships in the battle group would pass aport and fire the 5" guns and machinegun fire (no missiles unfortunately). The grand finale was BB-62 (or was it BB-63?) firing the 16" guns in a broadside...it was awe inspiring.

My friend says, good point but still better than getting even older.

I would punch a fur seal in the face to be in my 30's again. Anyone know a good vampire? Asking for a friend.

Holy moly!

Nobodys talking about you. But that did remind me that theres still two boiled eggs in the fridge that I have to eat before vacay.

Just fyi, for those of you that form your world views from these type videos, the above video is a spoof.

Same. On Saturday I leave for a 7 day vacation to Mexico w00t. My hummingbird feeder has been a rousing success. Theres at least three different individuals that come to feed all day every day. Theyre like phantoms...I can be looking at the feeder and theres nothing there...look away and look back...suddenly theres one feeding! Then skrrt...its gone in a flash. Its fun (to me) to watch. Im also trying to be a good steward by replacing the homemade nectar every few days so it doesnt spoil.

Its seems our EU, and especially UK, members lean heavily into Twitter / Facebook / GoFundMe for their education about the US.
