Well, you've read the notes, the notes made tracks, and now it is time for you to post until the making tracks cows come home.

Do people even know what this word is anymore?  I remember learning the word in school, but is it even still taught?

Our local DQ (and what is it with all these corporate franchises losing words and just going to initials?) is staffed by unruly, undisciplined teenagers. At least, the last time I checked (several years ago, now). It made the entire experience extremely disagreeable.

I, for one, am glad that The Randy Vicar is getting his due.

We are in a heat wave. The cats are unhappy, and I'm unhappy that I cannot spend my day lying in the cool porcelain of the bathtub with them.

Last night, just before 9:00, we had a strange occurrence in the apartment. It might have been a ghost.

I had turned off the TV and I was reading, so it was very quiet in the apartment, and all three cats were resting on my bed with me. From the vicinity of the kitchen came a long low scraping sound. I sat up, Thatch rose and walked to the foot of the bed and stared off into space. I got up, walked to the kitchen, didn't see anything strange, made sure the door was locked, and went back to bed. Thatch was still staring into the kutchen area.

Do you see a ghost, Thatcher? I asked him as I passed him. I got back into bed and he jumped off it and wandered into the kitchen. He was gone for maybe five minutes and then came back and jumped back in the bed.

I am liking MR BK's new avatar and I can certainly see how it would be popular with the populace.

Vibes for MR BK and getting the piano tracks done.

TOD:

I think MR BK wrote a rant on the Cancel Culture a few months ago that was very good.

I am very distressed by the whole thing - and I am very angry that people who have done things and accomplished things can be canceled by stupid people who have done nothing more important than making a Facebook post.

And they are not content just feeling a certain way - they must feel validated by making as many more stupid people feel the same way as possible.

But how does one fight stupidity and injustice?  It's very difficult.

So anyway I received a message from one such person.....he had received his tickets for the season....and thought the date on the ticket was printed wrong and that he was coming THIS Wednesday instead of last Wednesday because we have NEVER done a show on the Wednesday of the first week.

So now he is mad even though ALL newspaper stories and website and Facebook stories clearly published ALL the correct dates.

The barbecue joint where we had lunch yesterday sold T-shirts that said, We like our butts rubbed. It has a picture of a large pig. So, yes, I bought one.

Our local DQ (and what is it with all these corporate franchises losing words and just going to initials?) is staffed by unruly, undisciplined teenagers. At least, the last time I checked (several years ago, now). It made the entire experience extremely disagreeable.

But can you get cherry dipped cones where you live? They don’t sell them in Texas.

Maybe Mme. Esme can help with the ghost, Elmore.

When I lived in Ohio, I would never think of going to DQ for a meal, only strawberry shakes and dilly bars.

I have just tried my first Sparkling Ice drink: black raspberry.  And bk was absolutely right - they taste amazing! Love the carbonation, too.
