And I Quote

War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed class think they are going to profit from it.

Night Funny

My wife never tells me what to do.

Usually, she just points!

Fortune Cookie Say ...

That might just be a wee bit to a Fortune Cookie and its "fortune" for you, because in the last 3 weeks each time I haven eaten at the "Great Wok" I have received the same fortune (and you cannot tell me that it is not against the odds, even if there only 10 "fortunes" and each one repeated 100 times in a case of cookies, the odds of my receiving the same one every time I go into the place are almost nill, what with the volume of business the place does.).

What is that "fortune" you ask?

Well, I don't think it is so much a "fortune" but a comment on my character ...

For the last 5 times I have received the following:

You have inexhaustible wisdom and power!

It's true, I do! (And a keen sense of self depreciating humor to go along with it!)

Maybe it's time for a second honeymoon?

Funny thing is I was thinking about just such a thing when I ran across this cartoon!
The second honeymoon part ... not the "with who" part.

Enough

It's time to take the coats and hats off and get down to business!

Busy Day

It has been a busy day so far and I am glad I am on "vacation" now. Helping my friend out at his butcher shop is hard work and starting to cut steaks at 6AM is insane ... by noon you are wore out. But today was my day to be insane and start cutting steaks at 6AM. This is after I had taken care of the animals on the farm. Now a massive thunderstorm is just finishing ... I think ... there is a second set of rumbling thunder rolling in behind the set leaving. We'll see, but at damn near 100 degrees any cooling is welcomed.

Morning Funny

Never eat more than you can lift.
