Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

[CycloneDaddy]

Okay Todd, while I dislike the 25 daily texts (I haven't counted but think it is probably in this ballpark) from these political people. I do see you are now getting me texts from some fairly attractive women. I'm starting to like how this is going. I'm willing to give you a little leash now.

Why not just report the text as spam and it will stop?

You bet, but best to ask her out after the game. Better to know than to end up in the friend zone, unless you just want the friend zone.

Lol no of course not. And she's gotta be interested right if she wanted to know when I, an internet rando whom she only just met, was available to go to a game again.

Even at a county fair in Wisconsin, hawk fans are present.

Of course, it is a fair, there will be bullsheet at every fair.

It was a whole family too, all with hawk shirts on.

Was at a friend's yesterday afternoon for a grill out. He lives on a quiet street in CR, lots and lots of trees around him. He found this yesterday. About 20 feet up. Not quite the size of a basketball, but close. View attachment 133581

Let it die in the winter, then remove with the branch and sell for profit.

So 2 friends going to a Brewers game together, where she asked if I wanted to go Saturday, and I said yes, and she swapped a couple of her season tickets for Saturday's game would be considered a date right?

Yes

I got a wedding to go to in a couple weeks, there's 2 receptions. One with dinner for 150, and then one for everyone else. About 500 people are expected.

If Sat. Goes well invite her. Actually sneak a extra date in before asking if possible.

This feels like pandering for gifts. But as someone with a family too large for a reasonable size wedding I don't hate the idea.

I was thinking about it. Probably too late to add a +1, my cousin wouldn't care, but his fiancée might.

That's what i was thinking too. They do know a lot of people though.

They come from different numbers all the time. Plus political stuff for some odd reason gets to avoid all the other stuff. I text back end and stop but they just hit me from other numbers.

So are you one of the elite 150 or part of the 500 unwashed masses?

I wonder who was the first person that looked at beans and thought, maybe if we soak these in water and boil for about 24 hours, they'll be edible.

Good question. We've started cooking them in the instant pot with no soak and most turn out perfectly.

Is it on a large unsinkable ship traversing the Atlantic? Are you in steerage?

Edamame is one of our family favorites. My mom who is a farmers daughter is all WTF about it.

Timely question. We have main dish for Sunday dinner, and my plan is to cook up a mess of pinto beans. It's a 12 hour job to get the flavors blended,
