I remember all of my dreams every night. They are vivid and very real. About 1 out of 10 remembers their dreams even though everyone dreams when they are in rem sleep. Last night I was on the hunt for drugs as a lot of my dreams tend to be and found myself at some shopping mall on a atv riding around the place. It ended with me trying to find my music system that I had loaned out to someone lol.

Had rain yesterday then turned cold last night, driveway is a glare today. Just threw out some ice melt and gonna let that work a bit and throw out more later when its safer to walk on it.

In the meantime, big joints, loud music, coffee, and more joints

It's winter in the Northern Hemisphere and I'm reminded that people sometimes bathe less when the climate is cold(er) and that's their prerogative. I used to work with a guy who came from a Caribbean island where they didn't have running water in his village. His family had to walk to the well, pump it into buckets and carry it back to their house.

I'm not much for camping and thankful to have grown up living in a city environment. Friends have rented a Winnebago when they want to 'rough it' and drive around some remote campsites in America... shower and toilet are onboard. Oh, we've got it easy!

The point being: I understand because of environment, people have different levels of hygiene... that's a given and in many cases not related to their education or financial status.

Talking to a friend this past weekend, she mentioned that Trump stinks. I thought it was a political joke and she said. No, it's for real. He has offensive body odor.
C'mon, I said... he's extremely wealthy, probably has 150 suits, owns multiple golfing country clubs, hangs with other wealthy and influential people. How can that be possible?

Her response was: Google it.

What do you think about owls?

There are a lot of weird things I have either heard or seen about them.

Have you every seen the 4th kind movie?
What about Bohemian Grove?
Recently seen a blog referencing a huge owl disappearing, not before changing color and light orbs following.
I have had an owl hit more car and put a huge dent in it?? Didn't think a bird could do something like that.

Any weird owl stories?

A quote from the top of the blog page:




A Blog is a journal you may enter about your life, thoughts, interesting experiences, or lessons you've learned.
I do, but some people complain about that.

Post an opinion, impart words of wisdom, or talk about something interesting in your day.
I do, but some people complain about that.

Update your blog on a regular basis, or just whenever you have something to say.
I do, but some people complain about that.

Creating a blog is a good way to share something of yourself with others.
It would appear that way on the surface. Should I go into detail of how people misinterpret what I say, gossip about me, copy or mock my comments in spinoff blogs?

Side note:
One of the biggest complaints about dating sites is the amount of scammers. I spend a few hours each week carefully researching bogus profiles FOR FREE and have been happy to have quietly rid CS of more than 1,000 fakes last year, yet one member here repeatedly has to make negative comments about it to others. In layman's terms WTF is wrong with you people?

Not to worry Trump fans ...this page will cut both ways .

Mustache also spelled moustache refers to facial hair under the nose. I've used some language translators that have fewer words (than English) to describe facial hair. Beard, long sideburns, mutton chops, goatee and mustache all get grouped together. The same thing happens to gnat and mosquito where other languages call any 'tiny flying bug' a mosquito, but this blog is about mustaches.

I started facial hair growth in the 1970's around the time guitarist Ted Nugent released his album Survival Of The Fittest where he hadn't shaved in a few weeks. I tried the look, but that got shaved off as it really wasn't my style. In the 80's, my wife asked me to grow a mustache and it had the vertical strips like Glen Frey of The Eagles. Trimming it back to a normal length, the mustache has always remained and I often think there will be a day when I shave it off completely.

Going through old photos I found one of an uncle who had what many Italians refer to as a Mafioso mustache. It's a trimmed growth probably 5-6 millimeters (1/4") in width along the upper lip.

Certainly, if I lose my mind (and trademark mustache) and decide to shave it off, I'll buy an electric razor and document the event with photos... there will be the phase of Mafioso 'pencil thin' mustache before it all comes off!




Who knows, I may decide to keep it that way...

DISCLAIMER for those who don't actually read my blog and assume the guy in the photo is me. It's a nameless person who's photo came up on a Google search of mustaches.

The first two batches of unsealed Jeffrey Epstein court documents reveal a number of high-profile individuals whose names appeared multiple times in various materials, including footnotes.
Among them are two former US presidents – Donald Trump and Bill Clinton – and Prince Andrew, all three of whom have been pictured with and known to associate with the disgraced financier in the past.
Other names include lawyer Alan Dershowitz and magician David Copperfield.
However, being identified through the court documents does not necessarily mean that the individual was involved in or aware of any wrongdoing by Epstein.
Unsurprisingly, Epstein’s partner in crime Ghislaine Maxwell is one of the names that appears the most - 208 times in the first tranche.
The British socialite’s name appears in full 20 times, due to the files being part of a 2015 US defamation case by Virginia Giuffre against her. The name “Maxwell” appears 849 times, though this is some times in reference to legal matters and footnotes.
References to Maxwell were made throughout the documents, with various other witnesses being asked about her involvement with Epstein in their separate testimonies.
The second tranche of documents contained the name Maxwell 352 times.
She is currently serving 20 years in prison, having been convicted sex-trafficking underage girls in June 2022.
Prince Andrew - 110
Prince Andrew has been named 110 times accross both sets of documents.
Bill Clinton - 83
Clinton’s name is mentioned 83 times in the documents so far. Both he and Andrew are known to have been associated with Epstein previously.
Part of the testimony from Ms Sjoberg alleges that Epstein once told her that Clinton “likes them young” – referring to girls.
Donald Trump - 4
Clinton is not the only former commander-in-chief to appear in the documents. Donald Trump was named in the first batch, though only four times.
In part of Ms Sjoberg’s testimony, she claimed Epstein once “called up” the former president and visited one of his casinos after his private plane was diverted to Atlantic City in New Jersey.
Elsewhere, Ms Sjoberg was asked if she ever gave Mr Trump a massage, to which she replied “no”.
Magician David Copperfield - 6
US magician David Copperfield was named six times in the first set of documents, having reportedly had dined with Epstein on occasion.
Copperfield’s relationship with Epstein has previously been noted, including in a 2019 article from The New York Times, which described Maxwell’s role in acquiring young girls for the disgraced financier.
Hollywood stars
Other big Hollywood names have also appeared in the documents, though mostly just once or twice during Ms Sjoberg’s testimony.
She is asked about meeting guests at Epstein’s residence, including Star Wars creator George Lucas – who is mentioned once – and actor Kevin Spacey, who is mentioned twice. Ms Sjoberg says she does not remember meeting either man.
She also does not remember meeting British supermodel Naomi Campbell, who is named once in the documents.
Late King of Pop Michael Jackson is also named twice, after Ms Sjolberg is asked if she met “anybody famous” while with Epstein. She said she did meet Jackson.
Alan Dershowitz - 166
Epstein’s lawyer Alan Dershowitz is also named over 100 times, though in some places this is simply in footnotes referring to legal matters.
Sharon Churcher - 324
British journalist Sharon Churcher has made over 300 appearances in the second tranche of documents, released on Thursday.
Ms Churcher was the sole source of regarding the original Epstein story from Giuffre, according to the response filing. Maxwell also claimed she helped Virginia Giuffre “concoct” s*xual assault allegations against the Duke of York.

but blog rules do not allow me to use the question as a Blog title, so here it is..

In the coming Nuclear War, presuming you are one of the 100,000 humans who will still be surviving 2 years later, what item do you think you will miss the most about our former civilization?

I will name a few of my own 'I am sure I will miss them.'
Chocolate
Ice Cream, many flavors of
fresh fruit and canned sliced peaches
beef steaks
eating fish
good TV shows and movies
the Internet
Walmart, Lowes and Target stores (open ones, not burnt out ruins where one was once upon a time)
Fresh coffee beans
strawberry shortcake
Being able to come home without showering before entering
cooking on a gas flame vs burning radioactive wood with radioactive smoke
A fresh source of LIon batteries as they usually are only good for about 500 recharges
new underwear
new dungarees
new shoes and boots
dogs, cats and birds
bug spray

That's off the top of my head. What will be on your list of most missed items?

How would you sleep...how would you feel...how would you change your life....would you even change your life at all...

If, we discovered we are not at the top of the food chain? What if all this time we thought we had our government...our military....our police force around to protect us...when in reality, there is nothing they can do to protect you. How would that change your being?

It is said in the next few years, humankind can go one of two routes. One way is not so great for us...whereas the other way...we literally become woke. No...not like the woke we speak of today. I am speaking of a wokeness where if we ask who was responsible for J.F.K., that answer is freely provided. There is nothing hidden.

Like I mentioned, the first way is not so great...

But, the second way may not be so great either. It is said that ignorance is bliss....but with all the knowledge that could be provided to us, the reality of our lives may not be such an easy pill to swallow either.

Perhaps...we are not the top of the food chain.
