The Zombies - Time Of The Season (with lyrics)

Good morning. Have some good old fashioned music.

I Like This Guy

 

Ibuprofen is my Friend.

 Yesterday I went crazy. I actually did some work.

Changed the oil in my grandson's truck. He is transferring to germany soon and brought it home to keep here while he is there.

Anyway. I don't have a lift to raise it up or a pit to walk under it. What I do have is a pretty good floor jack. So I raised it up and crawled under it. On the cold hard concrete.

Been tossin and turnin all night,  my lower spine is killing me. Finally gave up the ghost and took 4 ibuprofen about 30 minutes ago, around 4:30 AM.

It seems to be easing up a little.

I decided to do it myself because it costs up to $80 to let someone else change it for you. That's worth it. Except I'm trying to cut my expenses down some. Prices on groceries and gas are sky high here and not looking to come down soon.

I bought valvoline restore and protect 5w-30 oil in a 5 quart bottle. Cost $38.99 for the jug. Now get this. Same oil in a 1 quart bottle is $11.99 per quart. 5 quarts of that is $60. 

I have a bunch of oil filters for the truck already, so I didn't have to put out for that this time.

I have watched videos about this particular valvoline oil. They all have good things to say about it, so I am giving it a shot.

What oil do you guys use???

Good Morning

 So. I just rolled a joint.

I bet you're jealous.

Don't be. It was my ankle.

That car has one hell of a strong window.

 Watch as these guys try to break that window. 

This is the guy to vote for governor in california

 

Word of the Day

 

Thought for Today

 I was able to type this with both hands. 

You know why?

Because I have good sense and didn't pick up a live flash bang today.

How Long Will This Government Shutdown Last?

Senate Blocks Measure to Advance Government Funding Package; Seven Republicans Join the Dems 

Saturday marks the deadline and once again nobody can agree on shit.

Fuck this crap, I'm goin out to do yardwork.

Wait a minute, I got a little hasty there, I'm just gonna surf the net and watch youtube.

South Park

 

Thoughts for Today

 Siri, why do i always mess it up with women.

Welllll, to start with, I'm Alexa asshole!

Today I learned that PornHub is a canadian company. I bet if they blocked it in america, this whole trade war would end permanently.

I can't dance to save my life. But when I step in dog shit, I can moonwalk better than michael jackson.

I wish we had stopped at Standard Torx

Okay, I can see why the torx was invented. But doggone it, why the hell did you need to make MORE of these godforsaken drive styles?

Wasn't one enough? How many sets of Torx do I need to keep in  my toolbox?

Yesterday I wanted to change a turn signal bulb. T8 torx to remove the screw. Well guess what? It's not a torx but some version and now I gotta figure out which one and go get a set. It's not the security set, I tried that. All I know is T8 didn't fit and none of the others did either. 

 "There are several distinct  styles, each designed for specific applications and offering different levels of security or torque capacity." 

 The main types include:

• Standard Torx (T): The original six-point star-shaped design, commonly used in electronics, automotive, and industrial applications. Sizes range from T1 to T100. 

• Security Torx (TR): Also known as tamper-resistant Torx, these have a pin in the center of the star pattern to prevent unauthorized access. Sizes range from TR8 to TR60. 

• Torx Plus (IP/EP): An improved version introduced around 1990 to increase torque and reduce wear. It features more square lobes. Sizes are designated as IP (Internal Plus) from IP1 to IP100 and EP (External Plus) from EP1 to EP42. 

• External Torx (E-Torx): Used with socket wrenches or ratchets, these have the star pattern on the outside of the fastener. Sizes range from E1 to E100, with E8 equivalent to T40. 

• Torx Paralobe: A further development with 6% longer flanks, providing up to 20% more torque than Torx Plus and 50% more than standard Torx. 

• Micro Torx (MR): Smaller versions like MR0 to MR5, used in delicate electronics such as cameras and laptops. 

• Torx Pin-Head (TP): Very small, used in internal devices like laptops and cameras. Sizes range from TP000 to TP6.

Truth of the Day

 A muslim walks into a bar with a parrot on his shoulder.

Bartender says Hey that's cool! Where did ya get him.

The parrot says Minnesota! There's a shitload of em.

It's Gettin to Be Time to Start Running These Protesters Out of the Country.

 Free speech. That's what this guy is doing. As long as he doesn't physically interfere with this LEGAL operation, he will be fine.

Three shootings in a month. If biden and the damn democrats had not ILLEGALLY let these assholes into our country, then this rodent removal would not be necessary.

Let ice do their job. Stay out of their way. Problem solved.

BREAKING: New Video Shows Moments Leading Up To Fatal Shooting Of Alex P...

This video shows the altercation and moment this guy got shot. I don't know what happened to cause the agent to draw his pistol. But it looks like the agent saw something that did in fact make him think Pretti was going to use a weapon. Draw your own conclusions after watching the video.

Here We Go Again

 Jesus H. Christ.

For about 3 decades now I have been predicting the Civil War 2.0 was going to erupt any day now.

And I have been obviously dramatically wrong. 

But now these democrats are going so goddamn fucking stupid I am thinking once again Civil War 2.0 is right around the corner.

But not started by our side. No Sir, it is being started by these crazed lunatics who hate Trump so bad that they love illegal alien criminals more than they love their kids.

They hate Trump. And that is the crux of the whole goddamn thing. 

They hate Trump. They don't give a flying fornication he is the only prez since Reagan who actually gives a shit about the country instead of politics.

And they hate him so bad they are pushing this country to the brink of war, and I think they are just one stray red hair away from going complete bonkers, even more so than they are now.

It is time to start filling your coffers even deeper than you have been.

What Goes Around, Comes Around

Shit like this:

Arizona attorney general suggests SHOOTING ICE agents under state's 'stand your ground' law 

Is why shit like this is happening:

Armed Man Shot, Killed by Federal Agents in Minneapolis

If biden and you asshole democrats  hadn't elected to splurge on illegal aliens in this country, then we wouldn't have to be yanking these fuckers out to ship them home.

It is time to arrest some people. Arrest Walz, Frey and whoever  this arizona ag is. Hold them accountable.

When will it end?

 

Things like this is why I only buy vehicles from private party.

 

Good Morning

 There was a safety meeting at work today. The guy asked me: What steps do you take in the event of a fire. I guess fucking big ones was the wrong answer.

Back around 1985 or 1986 I worked at a boiler company. My work truck was a dodge kary van, a big box truck. It was gray gray gray, couldn't hardly see it in the fog. One of my job was maintaining the heating system on several chicken growing ranches. A large crew of illegals did the work of getting the individual houses ready for baby chickens. I came into the ranch a little hot one day and slid to a stop in front of the boiler room. All of these guys were illegal. As I jumped out of the truck all I could hear was La Migre La Migre as they hauled ass out of there. Took almost 2 hours to get em back to work is what I was told as they asked me not to do that again.

If you've ever said I'll do that when hell freezes over, good news. You're scheduled to do that this week.

I would like a hardback copy please.

 

Are you guys ready for the storm coming your way???

 A major winter storm is forecast to impact the South and Southeast this weekend, bringing a mix of rain, snow, and ice to areas unaccustomed to such conditions. Cold air from an Arctic blast, now locked in place, will interact with a moisture-rich system moving from Texas and Oklahoma, creating hazardous travel conditions. 

• Ice and freezing rain are a primary concern, particularly for cities like Dallas, Oklahoma City, and Little Rock, where the track of the storm system will determine the severity. 

• Snow is possible from northern Texas to northern Georgia, with Atlanta potentially seeing a wintry mix. 

• Temperatures across the South will be 20–30 degrees below average, with daytime highs in the 30s and 40s, and wind chills dropping into the teens as far south as Alabama and Georgia. 

• Travel disruptions are likely, especially on elevated surfaces like bridges and overpasses, where even light freezing rain can create dangerous icy conditions. 

• Confidence in the forecast is growing, but timing and precipitation amounts remain uncertain—monitor local forecasts closely for updates. 

Preparation is key: Ensure vehicles are winterized (check battery, tires, antifreeze), and keep emergency kits stocked. Stay updated through local meteorologists as conditions evolve.

Good Morning

 

Does this video illustrate how the republicans and democrats operate??
