Sigh … I should know better than to test the King of Battle or Chip. I should know better. I don’t, but I should. Oh well. I’ll take third any day – bronze medal, you know. And in exchange for the bronze medal, I will leave here my trivia column! DID YOU KNOW…? Was actor Peter Falk the first choice of the producers to play “Columbo”? By Commissioner Wretched Depending on which day you read this week’s column, you’re either getting ready to eat your Thanksgiving dinner … in the process of eating same … or recovering from it. Whichever is the case, I hope and pray your holiday was everything you wanted it to be, and then some. Thus goes the second of the end-of-year quartet of holidays. We had Halloween last month; this week, of course, Thanksgiving; and next month we get Christmas (and/or Hanukkah) and the New Year. Fun times all around! And provided for you, each week in this space, is some trivia to make those dinner conversations more entertaining (or more boring, depending on how you like your trivia). I’m just happy to do my part. Did you know … … Japan has more than 50,000 people who are over 100 years old? (That’s for all you folks who don’t like sushi.) … the creamy filling inside Hostess Twinkies™ is not really cream? It’s actually made mostly of vegetable shortening, also known as Crisco™. (And to think I used to love Twinkies. Used to.) … knights in the Middle Ages did not carry money? The knights were worried about being robbed, so they instead wore a special ring with a seal on it. When a knight spent the night at an inn, he would stamp the bill with the seal on his ring, and the innkeeper later took the bill to the knight’s castle to get payment. (Of course they didn’t carry money. Did you ever see a pocket on a suit of armor?) … there is no such painting as “Whistler’s Mother”? James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903) did indeed paint a portrait of an elderly… Read more »

Coming in at third worst rated book ever written was Weekend with Rita, authored by S. CIO Burrell.

Claw

Hey, isn’t he the fourth most dangerous man in the world?

Hack Stone

The world’s most dangerous man was Daniel Bernath on approach to Sisters Eagle Airport.

Another fine job on the trivia presentation CW! It is muchly appreciated. I thought my food coma was abating just a bit, but the chicken n dumplin’s with cornbread dressin’ started calling my name. Had just finished that and put the bowl away when the WOT dropped. I guess I do need to retire the Crown, and call Supply to requesition a new one. Maybe if I just law low again for awhile, the contest will be on again. Ironically, the original plan for this week I would have been off the net from ’bout last Saturday evening until sometime late tomorrow.

It is inconceivable that any but Falk should play Columbo. Perhaps when they thought about it again, they replied “As you wish.”

Hack Stone

Hack Stone is just glad to be in the Top Ten, and is thankful that crackheads with blowtorches and pliers are practicing social distancing this holiday season.

And Epstein did not kill himself.

No he didn’t, but Bernasty did. And, Bless His Heart, he is still maintaining his social distance of minus 6 feet AGL.

Giggling..

Graybeard

Neither did Biden.

Too early?

Looking at duplicates, I think I’m top 10.

Was off celebrating middle brother’s 65th birthday. Have to say that video meetings help a lot when family is scattered across multiple states.

Nearly 2″ rain in the AO – much needed blessed rain!

Y’all have a great weekend.

Present!

Spent time with the lady and her oldest daughter yesterday. Helped her finish Christmas Shopping for her kids (my Amazon-fu is stronger than hers). My Christmas shopping is done, waiting for the last couple of things to show up next week, then packing gifts up to send off to sis and nephew.

Hope that everyone here had a good Thanksgiving with their families and friends

I have nothing nice to say, especially about a certain someone who sh*t all over us even tho he’s much smarterer and way betterer than any of us.
Can we start a collection going so he can take flying lessons?

I’m buying some more long term food storage stuffs this weekend; replacing some canned goods, rice and beans for Mylar bagging, spices and such. Working on a year of food for us two, with the notion I’ll probably have to flex. Anyone that thinks they’re getting a free ride here best believe at Spring they’ll be picking stones for the potato field to work off what they done eaten!

Anyway, have a great weekend y’all.

Kirjath Toney (TAH 2014-2015) UPDATE.
Remember when he threatened lawsuits???

85+ years old, man of the lord (?), but still
(1) Regularly spits out scripture and holy shroud.
(2) Posts parables about wars and fighting.
(2) Aggressively deletes truthful negative comments on Saint FakeBook.

Someone should hook him up with Maggie DeSanti,
the Arizona airport TSA push ups Honor Flights hag.
Imagine those two working on their push ups!
With a turkey baster?

Just looked over that thread, saw a lot of folks that we just don’t see anymore. Hoping they’re all well and lurking.

SFC D,
Crickets from Arizona,
but I must add, that Honor Flights Arizona
still has the photos of Phony Maggie DeSanti
on their website.
With flights in 2020 cancelled,
surely someone in Arizona has/had the time
to remove all traces of phony Maggie.
But no.

Yes, watching Maggie waltz around Washington, DC,
holding a US flag…. with children…
really really pisses me off.

A question for you Navy guys: A Command Master Chief would be a rather important rank would it not?

Just wondering.
