On the Purple (History) Trail at the Cranberry Lake Preserve in N. White Plains NY. I really think for a greater challenge they should make a hiking trail modeled on Kim Kardashian's rump.
When you have a few hiking miles in around the trails there, you can head for some back packing in the High Peaks Wilderness Area up north. Maybe even get a series on National Geographic. You could get groupies.
I'm afraid I'm no Marco Polo, has to be a McDonald's within a 15 mile radius. I don't plan on taking a shit in the woods or bathing under the waterfall. I'm a happy daytripper is all I am.
When I was a kid we literally spent all day every day either in the woods or on the lake. It's a wonder none of us ever got shot by hunters.
Kim K, two thoughts. One, she makes money off her ass but she really doesn't do much to forward women's rights that way. Plus that last thing with the champagne glass has some unpleasant connotations in the history of the image. Two, finally big asses are fashionable. It sucks being 30 years ahead of the trend.
My friend likes to go to REI alot and other camping stores. Wondering about all that freeze-dried vacuum-sealed culinary offerings like the beef stroganoff. Then again I'll stick with the diners in the area.
When they first came out with that sealed beef stroganoff, my Dad was working for a sporting goods wholesaler. He brought it along on a canoe river trip. It was awful; we filleted a walleye we caught and left the strogocrap for the forest creatures....circa early 70s. But I bought some x-c skis from REI and my bro-in-law who was a goalie at Purdue took me to their big warehouse in Seattle where he sorted through hundreds of different goalie sticks. At that time REI was sort of a mountaineer co-op operation. Those sporting goods stores are fun to wander around in: looking for a fly rod and ya end up with a tent, camouflage hat and some hiking boots.
I think the preppers like to go to stores like that too. Oh they pretend they're into camping and stuff but little by little they're prepping, getting their water purification tablets porta-potties and freeze-dried lasagna so they're ready for that big global financial collapse of the stock markets that's always just, just around the corner.
Makes ya wonder about that Pennsylvania guy that shot the PHP cops and wandered the Poconos for 42 days. You suppose he got tired of sealed macaroni & cheese, stump water and M&M pemmican...or did the area Sasquatch turn him in?
Best coffee percolators I ever got were in places like EMS and Gander Mountain. I still use them. Best percolator tops when you have to replace them are at Chef Central.
Where do you get coffee that can be used successfully with a percolator? I have a Corningware stovetop percolator that's older than me but the powder-grind coffee today doesn't work. Do I need to line the filter basket with a paper filter?
I was reading the 2013 Rolling Stone interview yesterday and it occurred to me that there really has to be 'something' about him.. he has to have some kind of something, some aura, some vibe, some something that sucks people in, some kind of otherworldly extrasensory thing.. otherwise why would people still be gravitating to him after 45 years? The girl who he's apparently going to marry is in her 20s and now has an X on her forehead too, by his request. She looks eerily like some of the original girls. I don't understand the attraction, but undeniably he has some kind of something that he uses to manipulate people.
I see a women's college basketball team was stranded in the blizzard south of Buffalo. For twenty four hours. An opportunity for Z-man to snowshoe to the bus with a few dozen cronuts. Could be a hero....and new team mascot.
A bunch of pitbulls got out and killed a horse out this way. The owner, a lady, was surprised, "Gee, they were so gentle around the baby" and concerned: "Is the county going to pay for the vet bill on my dog that got kicked in the head?" -color me baffled.
The Mrs. came home today after her volunteer work at the elementary school helping 2nd graders that are a bit behind. She said the school just received two new students, boys 8 and 9 who had been raised in up in the wilderness. They cannot write, spell or do math (but betcha they can snare a rabbit, gut a beaver and track a moose) and the mother got tired of the life style. The kids need all day attention from an expert educator, which the school does not have and cannot afford. Any advice from you Duck Dynasty types?
Today might be a good day for some peace and quiet on a trail here in Vegas with the Pres coming to town and the news all about either our new racist Speaker of the House or the coming end of our nation due to executive action...
The Cosby case is interesting. We're being essentially told to believe the women because so many have come forward, ala Tiger Woods. In this, people do not feel bad for this potential career ending moment.
Yet when a similar number if people accused a president if like behavior, those same detractors of Cosby were singing a completely different tune.
The incidents are eerily alike, yet the response from similar quarters is decidedly different.
Those in power and sex: what an old long list to pick from . Dave's observation suggests some are ruined and some survive and even prosper. The answer eludes me.
I think it would be a different term in her case... Seriously though... did Clinton get a pass for position, or were Cosby and Tiger pilloried for their race?
I tend towards position. I just wish someone, anyone on the left would step up and at least admit Clinton got a pass from the feminist crowd that now seems to hate Cosby...
Two things, the Right needs to admit it was wrong to impeach him and the Left needs to admit they overdefended him. Despite it all Bill Clinton is now considered some type of elder statesman.
I'm not sure anyone could hike something that large...
ReplyDeleteScaling her rump would make Everest look like child's play...
Would you need a sherpa?
Getting lost on Mt. Booty would be no fun.

DeleteI use a disc-type paper filter. Hard to find but Stop 'n' Shop has them. The grind is a problem but I like Dunkin' Donuts Dark Roast.
DeleteThey put antifreeze in Fireball and aluminum in deodorant and we worry about terrorists. In other news I hear Chuckie Manson is getting married.
ReplyDeleteHard to believe an 80 year old creep would be a chick magnet. Can it be

That and that old interview he did with Geraldo.

DeleteIt's the ISIS factor. Why would 20-something Frenchmen join up? I don't get the ISIS thing and I don't get the Manson thing.
DeletePeople want to have a cause. It gives them a sense of purpose. The problem is a lack of good causes, which opens up the field for ISIS.

Football: it's been a year since my Raiders have won a game. Why can't they love me like I love them?

I would think it's not easy to kill a horse.

Send them to Mitch McConnell.

I'd like the respondents to explain that to me...
Those in power and sex: what an old long list to pick from . Dave's observation suggests some are ruined and some survive and even prosper. The answer eludes me.
DeleteAn excellent observation Dave. Been wondering if Hillary becomes president is she entitled to a few free blowjobs from a young male intern?

DeleteWhy are the movie critics all pissy on the new Mockingjay movie? Does it have to do with the recent iCloud scandal?
ReplyDeleteNow that ebola is sort of under control, is it time to look at other medical problems ?
ReplyDeleteThe solution is easy BB, have your 10 foot erection but stay out of the sun.
DeleteThose Mockingjay critics probably didn't get their free gift bags and other perks.
ReplyDeleteHere is a conspiracy theory hypothesis to chew on.
ReplyDeleteLike we have enough to worry about.
