My wife, my love, my life died this morning 1 week shy of our 38th wedding anniversary. If you love someone tell them everyday.

We are fighting a religious war. The Islamic fanatics in Iran (and else where) believe that these are the latter days and the Mahdi (their Messiah) is coming to eliminate injustice, tyranny, and evil, establishing a global era of peace and righteousness. The more turmoil, war, violence, killing they can cause will help him come quicker. You cannot negotiate with people who believe this. You cannot expect a "cease fire" to mean anything to them. There is no reasoning, logic, or dialogue they will honestly accept. The only thing you can do is exterminate them. Sorry. If you have another idea you think will work comment below. I believe that once again we are going to kick the can down the road because collectively we don't have the guts, intelligence or will power to recognize the inevitable. It is them or us. There is no in between. No common ground. No compromise. Them or us. I prefer the latter.

Here in Arizona. Looking for sunshine and warm weather. Near Salome in my Entegra motorhome. Just traveling and looking at this great country we have.

Major of New York was sworn in. His hand was on the Quran not the Bible. This is really hard for me to take. We (some of us at least) are complete idiots.

Letter from Dept. Of Fish & Wildlife: Dear Landowner: WDFWR Staff will be conducting surveys for foothill yellow-legged frogs & other amphibians over the next few months. As part of this research we would like to survey the creek on your property. I am writing this letter to request your permission to access your property. Recent research indicates that foothill yellow-legged frogs have declined significantly in recent years and are no longer found at half their historic sites. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated and will help contribute to the conservation of this important species. Please fill out the attached postage-paid postcard and let us know if you are willing to let us cross your property or not. If you have any concerns about this project please give us a call. We would love to talk with you about our research.

We are so stupid. "Microsoft was found to be using engineers in China to help maintain the Defense Department's (DoD) computer systems, including highly sensitive cloud infrastructure, with minimal direct supervision by US personnel. Details ProPublica Investigation: A ProPublica investigation revealed that this practice, using engineers based in China working under the oversight of US-based "digital escorts" with security clearances, had been in place for nearly a decade. Concerns about "Digital Escorts": The investigation highlighted concerns about the effectiveness of these "digital escorts" as a security measure, stating that they often lacked the technical expertise to adequately oversee and verify the work of the more skilled foreign engineers. Security Risks: Experts and former officials raised concerns that this arrangement could expose sensitive national security data to potential hacking or espionage from a leading US cyber adversary like China. Microsoft's response Microsoft announced it would discontinue using China-based engineers for support of its cloud services for the US government, including the DoD, following the ProPublica report. Microsoft stated that "no China-based engineering teams are providing technical assistance for DoD Government cloud and related services". Defense Department's response Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered a review of cloud contracts and stated that China would no longer be involved in their cloud services immediately. This incident has raised broader concerns about the security of the supply chain for government IT infrastructure and the balance between cost efficiency and national security."

"CA Law Requiring Background Checks For Ammunition Ruled Unconstitutional" When will that state learn? They are so fricking stupid. I will be so glad to get out of there! Change my residency to anywhere else! I guess should be glad I only go back to visit!

Some of us have been warning about this for years. And they control much of our medicine! And we continue to let them buy US land. We are idiots! "China controls over 80% of battery materials crucial to US defense equipment"

Next spring this will be me! Who wants to go?

The add that just showed up in my FB. This is just a little too personal!

Moooo.

About time. "The freak show Woke empire of intolerance and envy in the guise of good manners has fallen from its purity-enforced grace and America’s flirtation with repackaged communism is dead." And we need to make sure it stays dead!

Barry Manilow bidding farewell to legendary career. Yep, I am old.

These people and so called "religion" are hopeless idiots. jpost.com/middle-east/articl…

The President and I both have chronic venous insufficiency. Support hose help but are a pain in the neck. Looks like he is doing what I do. Ignore it.

Where the Boys Are. I will miss you Connie.

I do not apologize for repeating this message I do not apologize for repeating this message I do not apologize for repeating this message If you see a bee of any description on the ground or not flying that is not on a flowering plant, it is starving! You can help. We're currently well into the 'June Gap' - the time between when spring flowering plants stop and autumn flowers start producing pollen and nectar.📷📷 I love butterfly You can help by mixing two parts of sugar to one part of water and offering the syrup to the bee. She (and mostly women) will happily drink from a teaspoon. You'll see his little tongue black while he drinks. It will take about 10 minutes to turn syrup into energy, but it will fly away if you help it in time. The feeling you get when you see her recover and flight is worth your time. PLEASE NOTE - This is a temporary measure and "first aid" only. Bees need diversity in their diet and need to pollinate plants in their foraging. I'm not suggesting we feed sugar to bees as a normal thing. NO HONEY PLEASE - Disease can easily spread from colony to colony through this practice and you will do more harm than good. White sugar and water only please x They can't thank you so I'll do it on their behalf. Thank you a million xx Words are like bees!!!. some create honey and some leave a sting..

Depressed. I'll be better when the RV is done and I can blow this town. Rescued a dog, Piper. His owner turned her in for rehoming. She has a giant tumor on her back that we need taken off. Should have been removed years ago. She gets in the trash and about half leash trained.

ICE should shoot those idiots that are throwing rocks. These people only understand one thing.
