New version but dropped the version number. Does it matter? Only if you have a bug to report. All content is original. All pics are mine unless noted.

"It's NOT a dating app!" 😜

and my wife would certainly hope that's true.

Anybody else remember Gaddafi's security detail, the "Amazonian Guard" or "Revolutionary Nuns" (official title)? I wonder what happened to them after his death.

Some day you'll have a teen and they'll get a license, and they'll break something on your car. Don't get mad. This is an opportunity to take them to a "pull a part" junk yard and teach them how to do some pretty basic repairs on the cheap. In this case it was replacing a mirror. $25 and less than 1 hr total time. Tools? Trim tool and socket set. Confidence boosted.

Oh, and don't let them drive "the nice car" when they're still learning.

nostr:npub1hu3hdctm5nkzd8gslnyedfr5ddz3z547jqcl5j88g4fame2jd08qh6h8nh and I are rewatching LOST after many years and we both just realized that Toranaga sama is in it.

Now, I would like to see a LOST x SHOGUN crossover episode.

That is all.

You should read Clavell's books. The Hong Kong ones are kinda linked together. My face was definitely King Rat (which they did make a movie of back in 1965 that was well regarded).

Hopefully they redo more of his books into quality films/series.

The best horror movies are the ones you don't know walking into are going to be a horror movie. This happened to me when I saw Event Horizon in the theatre. I thought it was just gonna be a sci fi space film.

When I was a kid, I caught Phantasm and that scared the heck out of me. It was just so bizarre.

Tonight's mood:

A little bit of Roberta Flack "Gone Away"

You might pick up that this is where TI got his great sample for his first hit "Whatcha Know About That". Soulful and dramatic with penetrating lyrics.

🎶This is how we fuel it🎶

Just fueled up the truck today... Should last the next, ahem, three days or roughly 1900 miles. For those actually wondering, I'm very fuel efficiency conscious and in the summer I can average over 8mpg (today was 8.5mpg with a 40,000lbs load in the Midwest, mostly highway, a few small towns with lights).

nostr:npub1v60thnx0gz0wq3n6xdnq46y069l9x70xgmjp6lprdl6fv0eux6mqgjj4rpyou let slip very briefly during one of your gust spots on nostr:npub1vzjukpr2vrxqg2m9q3a996gpzx8qktg82vnl9jlxp7a9yawnwxfsqnx9gc that you live in an Earthship. I'm curious to hear more about it, and your experience with it. Did you study under Michael Reynolds? I've been wanting to go to Taos for years with the family and stay in one then hit up some skiing. Anything you could share would be much appreciated!

good bot! Lesson Learned.

Music Mood right now:

Shooter Jennings - All of This Could Have Been Yours

A powerful song of a blown relationship that builds from a solitary piano into a tour de sonic force from near desperation to near anger and finally ending in acceptance. Shooter is the son of country legend Waylon Jennings and has probably the best DJ show that covers an eclectic mix of music, quite a lot that he produces and plays on. He used to run a BBS though has since migrated to Discord and still gets on the Ham radio. Check it out and let me know what you think.

whaast?!?! As an album, Lataralus was absolute fire. But you never listened to 10,000 Days? Give the two track "10,000 Days/Wings for Marie" a listen. It's about Maynard's mother, Judith (he sang less flattering songs about her in A Perfect Circle). Those two tracks are powerful, emotional... Here's both put together as a single 17+ minute track: https://youtu.be/pBQsFDPKdNI?si=1Ff4KMVfrvV3eMbo

I'm full album roughly every 10 years (the time it takes for TOOL to put a new album out).

Meet the best copilot anyone could have! He doesn't go on every trip but he sure is happy when he does. #dogs #dogstr #trucks #truckstr

are you there now? my wife is from Nara City. I lived there briefly before moving to Osaka (Amemura part of Nanba). So glad you made it to Nara Koen! Curious if you also find it better than Kyoto (which gets all the attention).
