Morning all. Yep its Monday. Time to play nice at work,

Yuck. Nothing much better than sticking yer face in a toilet and heaving up yer guts.

One of my former co-workers talked about his biker days. He said to imagine the worst of the worst biker bars from all the movies or TV shows, and you are close to thinking of the place he was at, drinking Jack-Black as he called it. Of course a biker bar with lots of drinking entails lots of urination, and of course drunk bikers are not real careful with aim in a dive biker bar.

Anyway, my former co-worker said he was whizzing away and realized he was gonna hurl, so he dropped to his knees and ralphed into the toilet, and kept at it. Then he passed out. He woke up as the bar owner was trying to lock up for the night. He had been lying on the floor next to a totally disgusting toilet in a biker bar, and the other bikers had been whizzing into the toilet all night by having to straddle him with a wide stance. He said he threw out most of those clothes, and had his jacket dry cleaned twice. The very smell of Jack Daniels black label will make him sick to his stomach to this day.

Oh boy, Bob sent me some more Extraterrestrial junk. I'm supposed to pay $20 for an hour and a half video on how extraterrestrials are coming.

They are going to release a gas that makes us all calm so we won't try to shoot them down, then appear in windowless ships all over the world, one per county. They are going to telepathically transmit that they come in peace and want to help us so we can join the galactic community. Then cure all our diseases, hand out gold so no one has to work, and replace workers with robots.

But, like all the other times they've said extraterrestrials coming and announcing their existence, they don't know when this will happen. Supposedly when we quit hurting and killing each other.

Let's see, they are going to devalue our monetary system, and take away all our jobs? Sounds like it is planned by AOC.

We had one of our directors meetings where one of the required reading articles told us that we should not be afraid to be ourselves. I brought up that sometimes you can't be yourself and have to put up a "front" with your smile and best behavior. I said I am most definitely not a people person but I have to be one here. They commented that I was always friendly and nice to people and I commented that is my job and I get paid to be nice when I help people. They will never know who I like and dislike. Well, my boss knows where most stand with me since I have to go in, shut the door and vent now and then. Good thing she can keep a secret.

And 30 minutes before I left I took my short term insulin to cover the meal. Picked up groceries on the way home. Put them away. Sat down to watch some TV. Woke up a couple of hours later with my gut hurting like I was really hungery, except had to make a mad dash to the facilities.

Mrs. Carrera and I ate there on Friday night. The place was packed, and had a long line of people waiting by the time we left. No issues for us.

RKDinOKC 03-11-2019 07:59 AM

Never had a problem eating there before. It was packed, but my brother had gotten there ahead of me and were already seated and the waiter was taking their orders. The waiter suggested I get a bigger steak, i didn't listen. Maybe he knew something?

Springtime's coming, gonna be close to 80 degrees this weekend. Finally!

Wow, that gonna take a LOT of gas to affect to everyone on the planet.

Well if they are waiting for all humans to stop killing or hurting each other, there is no need to bother coming. The muslims want to kill all non muslims. The killing in the Congo is endemic, like much of Africa. Chicago alone killed over 540 in murders alone in 2018. The extraterrestrials can save a trip, and you can save 20 bucks.

RKDinOKC 03-11-2019 02:12 PM

Maybe they are testing with con trails, lol.
And besides all the gas (effecting the environment).
Just how are they supposed to carry in enough gold. That particular element is pretty heavy.

Just don't understand why Bob wants me to spend money on his hobby.
Told him many times I am happy to talk with him about this stuff, but I don't want to spend any money on it.
Yet he still keeps sending me links that require money to "Join thier group"

These guys could probably get a youtube or padcast following, but the coverup is a big conspiracy and they would get death threats and shut down. As if they couldn't be found thru these pay web access things that supposedly move around but are all on basically the same domain name.

GH85Carrera 03-12-2019 05:27 AM

The extraterrestrials would just uses their replicator technology to make the gold. Like they can on Star Trek Next Gen. The gas would have to be the tough part. The atmosphere is a LOT of air. Earth's atmosphere is about 300 miles thick, but most of it is within 10 miles (16 km) the surface. Air pressure decreases with altitude. At sea level, air pressure is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. Humans are just everywhere, and even out at sea on boats. The crew on submarines would be the hardest to gas.

Will the gas affect all the animals and plants?

Porsche-poor 03-12-2019 05:54 AM

Morning all. I vote rain will affect everyone. OK so I only got the people in my way driving to work. Never fails a few sunny but cold days and then poof they forget how to drive in the rain.

GH85Carrera 03-12-2019 06:09 AM

Yea, last night the weatherman predicted a 100% chance of rain overnight for us. We had a whopping 0.01 inch of rain. So I guess we did get rain, but almost everyone would call it a light drizzle at most. It has been weird. The eastern part of the state is getting lots of rain. The fronts come in from Texas, and move northeast, split, and go around us, and then reform to get the east part of the state, and Arkansas and Missouri and head on the Rick's place.

Jim Richards 03-12-2019 09:02 AM

The rain was heavy enough here that it woke me up twice last night. We might not see anymore rain for quite a while. At least we’ve surpassed our average annual rainfall. Drought sucks.

flipper35 03-12-2019 09:08 AM

We are supposed to get rain the next couple days but it should be in the 50s so a good trade off.

pete3799 03-12-2019 10:42 AM

Still snowing here. Picked up another 3-4 inches last night.
Supposed to get up in the 50's Thurs. and Fri.

GH85Carrera 03-12-2019 10:54 AM

We were supposed to get heavy rain but this afternoon. It is almost 2:00 PM and we are up to 0.03 inches of rain now. The flash flooding is not bad. ;)

RKDinOKC 03-12-2019 11:28 AM

Inspector had not checked the front plumbing so the hole aint filled. Too bad, a good soaking would help after the dirt is put back in the general area of the trench.

Blue Bell makes this ice cream I like that is little individual cups. BUT, it comes with 6 chololate and 6 vanilla. Or you can get it with all twelve Brithday Cake flavored. Got on their web site and told them it would not hurt my feelings a bit if they made one all chocolate. Curious to see what happens. Have made the same comment to several different checkers at the grocery and they all agreed with me.

When I got on the web site and ask Frito-lay were all the toasted corn Doritos went they sent me about $12 fo coupons for Fritol-ay products. Sent a message back telling them I would rather have toasted corn Doritos than $100 in coupons for all the other Frito-lay products. Haven't gotten an answer from that one.

RKDinOKC 03-12-2019 11:53 AM

Oh yeah, Pepper does not seem to like Spaghetti and meat balls. She likes pizza though.

Kinda funny though. Gave her a strip of all natural no preservative chicken jerky. The she gobbled it down then went directly to and slicked up the spaghetti. Than ran back and said "another one" for more chicken jerky. LOL. Just gotta give her another piece of chicken jerky.

GH85Carrera 03-12-2019 12:01 PM

We have a FedEx shipping account. I can print official FedEx labels and is charges my company credit card. That old card had a new expiration date and I had to update it on a few vendors we use. The FedEx account for whatever reason hides that credit billing info on their site.

I started getting emails from FedEx weeks ago. Yea, I understand. Well I got it all changed a while back but the email still comes. And yesterday I got a analog letter mailed via US Post Office. They still insist I update the info. So I dug back into the web site that is easy to ship a package, but sucks to find the credit card info. I did into it and lo and behold, the updated info really is there. I have nothing to update. Grumble grumble.

In the era of computers that update should be instant. They have wasted lots of electrons in email and one letter. Grumble grumble harrumph harrumph harrumph .

GH85Carrera 03-12-2019 12:04 PM

Our dogs are deprived. If they could talk they would tell you so. They don't get any human food, except crumbs or something dropped, and that is rare. I will give the male a stumpy end or butt end of a banana instead of dropping it in the trash.
