Not a whole lot to report on the culture front. Actor Robert De Niro thinks Trump won't relinquish power if elected to a second term. He needs to reacquaint himself with our system of government first. 84-year old actor Al Pacino now has a 1-year old son. Don't play too rough and give Dad a hernia. The T. Swift/Travis Kelce romance. Pop star Sabrina Carpenter getting competition from upstart Chappell Roan. I was driving to work this morning, stopped off and sent in my mail-in ballot for Trump/Vance then on the radio they were talking about the sad and tragic death of 31-year old One Direction member Liam Payne who jumped or fell from his room in a Buenos Aires hotel. TMZ facing backlash over pics they posted of his. The Al Smith Dinner tonight. Trump came but Kamala Harris didn't. She sent in a pre-recorded video instead. Who does this? NY Archbishop Timothy Cardinal Dolan disappointed.
Got anything?
No idea of why they call that stuff 'culture'. Z+ Generation?
ReplyDeleteEyes are going. Had to use a magnifying glass to read the instructions on the mail-in ballot.
ReplyDeleteI thought you were going to sit this one out?
ReplyDeletePrior to my blogpost announcing that I had already applied for a mail-in ballot with my County Board of Elections. It came the other day. Didn't feel like tearing it up so sent it in. Secondarily this blog is a thinking out loud post. Thinking out loud - I could be right I could be wrong I can also change my mind.
ReplyDeleteCertainly. Was the Yonkers Sidewalk Commission Supervisor running?
ReplyDeleteNot on the ballot. No dog catcher either. State legislators and County Court judges. A couple of props.
ReplyDeleteBoise has twice the population of Yonkers. They also spay feral cats for free. Found your retirement community.
ReplyDeleteDidn't know about the free service for ferals. WTG.
ReplyDeleteFairly often I read in the paper about some old lady that shares the house with dozens of cats. Seems kind of like hoarding. Could we
ReplyDeletecall that a Cat House?
Yes.
ReplyDeleteYou wonder how something like that even starts.
Diddy Did He?
ReplyDeleteTalking at work he's gonna bring everyone down with him. Fabulous career wha' happened?
ReplyDeleteThey got a Diddy Committee there in the chef section?
ReplyDeleteFunny we get these in-house health inspections and workers have more stress and anxiety over these in-house inspections rather than the official state inspections by the Dept. of Agriculture. The make believe inspections seem more important. Never understood it.
ReplyDeleteThe Army schedules inspections. Came to our base in the desert where we had spent weeks making it absolutely perfect. Mean looking guys with white gloves. All day long and the final report noted that they found a pebble stuck in the tread of one of our emergency fire trucks. Big demerit - like golly it can' go to the fire?
ReplyDeleteLocal inspection, the Naval Attache CMDR Cook, inspected each Lieutenant's suite in the BOQ. I had swept up my place, but the vacuum cleaner was upstairs and the big garbage can at the other end of the building when Ol Man Cook zoomed in. I swept the pile
under the refrigerator and stood at attention while he checked for dust, dirt and the secretary's underwear. "Looks good," he says and tips back the refrigerator. Navy got nothing better to do?
I'm thinking tipping back the 'fridge ain't easy. Was he a hulk?
ReplyDeleteDidn't hold a grudge. Loaned me the Naval Attache Limo after the officer's ball. Spent the night with girl from HQ building at the football field. Woke up both hung over when the football team showed up and surrounded us in the morning. "Way to go, sailor!" Were they talking smack or what?
