Don’t Look for Sasquatch!

In a lovely gesture, Texas governor Greg Abbott sent his condolences to Rosalynn Carter upon Jimmy’s death. I’m sure she would have graciously accepted them if she hadn’t been dead for over a year.  I don’t want to say that many Republican politicians are as dumb as a box of rocks but…

SB1 and LGMG hit the road Friday, so we are down to only the Oregon couple left. They never look for Sasquatch and are currently in Pismo Beach.

We had a choice of my car, my wife’s car or #1s car that he had generously let us use while he was in Houston. We decided to drive his to the movie. The next day our neighbor came by to tell us someone had hit his mirror.  Fortunately, it may have been a bike because it was not smashed, and the casing had come off in two intact parts.  I used my considerable mechanical skills to put it back together.  My concern is that #1 may find additional issues when we return it, like the need for a new engine.

I’m noticing tons of articles about the MAGA civil war.  Don’t you hate to see it? It looks like wrangling all the diversely demented MAGA elements is going to be harder than bringing down grocery prices. And our first felon President just sent out a warmhearted New Year’s note. It seems he’s pissed that Democratic senators are going to do their job and challenge some of his stellar nominees.

Old DJ has dropped down to fifth place – still a money spot – in his NFL pool, but he did take the weekly win in week 17, which is good for $20.  The weekly win is associated with how many points you make. If there are 16 games, you assign a value of 1 – 16 to each game. And here are my picks for the final week of the season.
