Thanksgiving '17

I am truly grateful for many things in this life, but today I am grateful that I never had to see a dick pic of this guy.

Hanker

I know you have been hankering for a post for more than a fortnight, so I have decided to deliver.

I was off to the posh club this morning as usual, although the rain was coming down.  This did not deter the fearless swimmer in me.  As I was about to head to the outdoor pool, the lifeguard informed me it was closed until 4pm because they had to shock it.  I told him I was shocked and asked him quite forthrightly, “Was management unaware I planned to swim this morning?” The indoor pool was crowded with the usual bloc of superannuated citizens, so I had to settle for a soak, shave and shower.

This picture showed up yesterday and they were appropriately shredded on Twitter.  Lots of articles but this was the best title: "Louise Linton Clearly Wants America to Hate Her as Much as Possible"

Trumpy has not had anything to say about Roy Moore since he got back from his fantastically successful Asia trip, but he did allow the import of African elephant trophies and had a chance to bask in the gratitude of some larcenous UCLA hoops players.  MAGA

What else do you want?  Kim Kardashian news?  Of course!  Word on the street is that she did not invite the surrogate to her baby shower.  She should not feel bad.  We did the same thing. Regarding Kim’s perfume line, it grossed $10M in a day.  I’m sure that is all going to charity.  And we learned that her Paris robbery influenced the new Crystal Gardenia fragrance collection.  I wanted to take a deep dive but all articles left me wanting. I surmise it smells like crapped pants.

All Saints Day Special

I reminded my pal 4M that it was a holy day of obligation and even found a church in San Jose that had an evening mass.  He said the World Series takes precedence.  He's going to hell.

I gotta know!  Are Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez an item again?  I was sad to see that she and The Weeknd broke up.  She apparently stole one of his jackets on the way out the door.  A remembrance perhaps.

The Browns and The Niners are both 0-8 but are going in different directions.  The Niners just picked up what may be their franchise quarterback, and heck is he handsome.  The Browns failed to finalize their trade for AJ McCarron because they were celebrating it.  Incompetence writ large.  I picked the Niners to get their first win Sunday, although I’ve slid to a tie for 9^th place in my pool.

The Wig’s SB2 just bought himself a dachshund and named him Franklin.  I think the kid was a history major.  As long as he didn’t name him Donald, I’m cool.  As I mentioned previously, he will be coming back to the Bay Area next year.  This will give me an opportunity to dog sit Franklin.  I’m looking forward to it since no one has taken a shit on my carpet in years.

The headline of the day states that Trump is apoplectic and allies fear impeachment.  Sounds good to me.  I also read they were prepping him for his Asia trip but giving it to him in small doses.  I think the same reasoning applies as to why they only do half days for kindergarten.  And the official White House portrait is out.
