All Things Considered

I think I am back after a hiatus. My Blogger app was acting goofy and wouldn't allow me to write more than a line or two before it just went away. Trying a new app to see if I like this better.

A lot has happened since I was here last. The boy is now a licensed driver. My insurance rates are officially in the " fuck -you-in-the-ass-with-no-lube category because of it. He is a safe, cautious driver, at least when I am with him. The youngest, still has a permit, even though she will be 17 Christmas Eve. She has no intention of driving at this time. Especially since her brother can now be her chauffeur.

I coach a team that competes by speaking their parts verbally. To say that I speak clearly and concisely would be correct, and even a bit of an understatement. That makes the next part all the more unbearable.

Ok, McDonald's sucks to be sure, and I have the worst in the chain here in town.

Technology

My blogger is acting up. When I get it fixed, I'll be back.

Disconnected thoughts.

Got a Skeeter on my Peter, knock it off!

Got a Skeeter on my Peter , knock it off!

There's a dozen in my fuzzin' , 

Can't you hear them bastards buzzin',

Got a Skeeter on my Peter, knock it off!

Just woke up remembering this from childhood. Was wondering what happened to my kids. They are so far behind. Today, I was speaking with my son, and was talking about calling a friend named Dick. I said, "I just need to get ahold of Dick." And my son zinged out, "Just reach down your pants!"

There may be hope for him yet!

Me Muddah!

This morning while making coffee, I was reminded of another phrase or saying my grandpa, Leonard had.

" Who pulls me from my nice, warm bed, and spanks my ass until it's red? Me Muddah!

Who wakes me from my nice, warm cot, sits me on a ice cold pot, makes me pee wether I have to or not? Me Muddah!"

I'm sure there was more to this, but I can't remember it right now.

This coming July 25th, 2016, Leonard would have turned 99. George Gaynes, who played Commandant Lassard in Police Academy, will turn 99 on May 17th,2016. Yes he is still alive at the time Of this writing. While it isn't impossible for Leonard to still be with us physically, he is still with us mentally and emotionally. For a Christmas gift to my mother,  Justin made her an OU plaque, wrapped in brown paper and containing Leonard's poem about Joe Baker. ( listed earlier in my blog history) . There are days I wonder if Justin isn't Leonard, reincarnate. Although I think Justin may have been on the Titanic in a previous life. He has always had an unusual fascination with that boat.

Have a great 2016.
