I'm still watching the documentary series on the Battle of Cologne in March of 1945. Very interesting from a number of perspectives, if you have Amazon Prime you should check it out, be forewarned though - the first part is 80 minutes long, the second is nearly an hour, and there are two more episodes I've yet to get to.
Busy weekend, hence this video-heavy post.
First one pokes fun at our current President, I thought it très amusant -
The second, which I posted a few years back, pokes fun at the previous President. I was amused at the video, however, not so amused by the topic. Said season is upon us, next month is "Tax Day." I've already heard unhappy rumbles from some...
The last one really gave me a chuckle, damned near a belly laugh in spots. It unites 44 and 45, with an appearance from 43. Shrillary is in there as well, and guess what?
She is still not the President.
A thing for which I am thankful every day.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend, I'm heading back to the Battle of Cologne.
Well.....Thank goodness for cellphones. Completely forgot about DST and "springing forward". Phone didn't. Off to see the Big Guy.
ReplyDeleteI was aware of the time change, painfully aware.
DeleteGot up too early on Saturday so was actually tired enough to go to bed last night at 2230. Then I adjusted my watch, suddenly it's 2230.
Groan...
(Both cellphones and the computer successfully swapped over all by themselves.)
"You gotta go back to the Jetta.......preeetty dorky".... Thanks for the laugh Sarge.......(chuckle). Snowfall cleanup, another five inches overnight.
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteSleet, freezing rain, now snow. But in very small amounts.
Sarge? Didn't you drive a Jetta?
DeleteWhy yes, yes I did, an '82 and a '91.
DeleteOh, wait...
To keep things simple, I call all the Cardinals by the same first name, Claudia.
ReplyDeleteOne of the approximately three gazillion settings on my G-Shock watch is an automatic DSL change and the watch successfully changed the time sometime during the night. (and yes, the G-Shock is a rather large and complicated watch, but as Freud would probably have said, "Sometimes a watch is just a watch." :)
Good post.
I think it's time to say goodbye to DSL.
Claudia still looks good at 80.
DeleteI used to have a G-Shock, loved it. Now I've got the fighter pilot watch. Hey, it's just a timepiece!
And what "fighter pilot watch" is that, Sarge? Be careful, be very careful.....
Delete:-)
This one.
DeleteCareful, aye!
As Alaskans renew our annual debate on the dubious merits of DSL, since we have 12 hours of daylight now, I should point out that for most of the summer we'll have in excess of 18 hrs of daylight. It peaks for three weeks on either side of the summer solstice with 22+ hours. That's the months of June & July wherein it fails to actually get dark. So our question is, what daylight are we saving?
ReplyDeleteGood point, what good is it if you can't make a withdrawal from your "savings" in the dead of winter?
DeleteIn the lower 48 it makes a weird sort of sense, having experienced the year where we didn't change, kids catching the school bus in the pitch dark and other "horrors." My only problem with DST is that they start it too damned early! (March as opposed to say May.)
I an think of no good reason why It’s necessary to to revert to having the Sun, whenever it shines, to be in my eyes as I drive to church.
ReplyDeleteI already dealt with that a couple of weeks ago.
Now I have to deal with it again.
Ah yes, I will have that problem in about two weeks I figure. Just having it now, so it gets pushed back.
DeleteThat snowy scene sure is pretty... Your back yard is an oasis...
ReplyDeleteWas about 90 degrees yesterday, 30's last Monday.... When I was a kid, dad warned me about warm weather after really cold weather. Said the cows would lay down during the heat, and if it got really cold again, they'd freeze to the ground and die. So we had to get them up... They didn't like it, I didn't like it. So it was real ranching!!!
I felt that yesterday.... I just wanted to lay down all day!!!! Didn't get much done....
The Missus Herself, by dint of hard labor and an artistic eye, turned the barren wasteland we inherited from the previous owner into our little paradise on Earth. (I helped - I picked things up, I put them down. Heavy things...)
DeleteToday the weather is a bit raw, chilly and rainy. A good day to stay home, though we did go to church in the morning, the rest of the day will be somewhat inactive.
For some reason, I did not see the Trump video as a dig at him. A lot of videos have been made using his very expressive face that are just outrageous.
ReplyDeleteHere's one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=buafzJLWXIU pretty good dancer
And: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrRPH4gpKw0 Shows he knows how to use his little hands...
The badlipreading people are funny as all get-out. There's one I can't find easily that's a bad lipreading of Sarah Sanders going off on journalists at a press conference. What's so funny is it's not too far from her normal ascerbic tones. Love that lady.
As to the middle one with TWPE, nah, I'd rather watch a Woody Allen movie than have to look at him ever again.
Regarding the weather, well, don't expect the snow to go away until it does, if you know what I mean.
I really liked "The Punisher" clip, hysterical.
DeleteAnd Bollywood, loves me some Bollywood.
Thanks for the smiles, Sarge!
Delete:)
DeleteDSL? Bah, humbug.
ReplyDelete?
DeleteSenior moment - a comment meant for another blog. On the other hand, did walk into the bathroom and remembered why I was there.
DeleteHahahaha!
DeleteJeanie didn't make it to Sunday School/Church this AM. Claimed foul-political conspiracy, etc.
ReplyDeleteAlways laugh at the Pythons, miss them, actually.
Love the lipsynch. Lots of truth there. Wish we were privy to what is actually said amongst our revered leadership.
Yup, would love to be a fly on the wall at some of those things.
DeleteIt's March in The Land of the Badgers. It's going to be 58 on Thursday, and 37 on Friday.
ReplyDeleteSounds a lot like New England!
