Yesterday and today and tomorrow. And forecast is equally unpromising for the next 2 weeks. Can’t go swim, can’t go paddle. Sitting at home, posting stupid comments.

Harbal’s little frogs are all over the paths in the nearest forest. Can’t go there either: don’t want to stomp them to death, do I? Could be someone’s prince.

Supposed to be my vacation :/

Last weekend I was carrying a car battery in a plastic case and cracked a fingernail. It was right up to the skin and I didn't want the hangnail to break off... so, I put a tiny amount of super glue on the nail to bond the loose piece back. Naturally, it only lasted a day and I had to trim the nail and redo the super glue treatment... twice.
It's a good thing my nails grow fast and I was able to trim the nail short getting past the part that was repaired.
Normally, I keep my nails less than 1/8" but when I'm busy (read: lazy) they are twice that. I know it's beyond the limits of 'good grooming' but... so be it.

Years ago, I worked with a lady who was from the Caribbean and took cosmetology in school. Part of her training was nails and hair. A few times I was the client (read: victim) so she could practice her skills.

At the time, I was doing drafting work with paper, pencil, erasers and plastic triangles. She trimmed my nails so short I couldn't pick up my tools. It was a few days like this until my nails grew out enough to pick up the triangle and thin metal erasing shield.

My brother used to bite his nails... nervous habit? Probably.
What a creepy feeling it must be not to have nails.
I would equate that to cutting a cats whiskers.
Let's see how far he could get sneaking around the bushes in pursuit of a bird.

Many exist in life; and in fact, provide clues for the study of causal hypotheses in much of science.
Here's one. The less validly formally educated, the greater the need to dis others on their alleged levels of intelligence. Use of words like fool. amateur, etc.
It is likely similar, dynamically, to the overuse of words like Racism, Sexism, and the "phobias", so often seen among those of certain political persuasions, while signaling great personal virtue.. Also seems to go along with the need to bully, especially on physical characteristics of others, or, say, skills, such as the ability to use language. Often used by some in certain crafts, about which there are deeply feared questions on personal competence.
Easy to detect, from the volume and intensity of the displays. Often stridently put forth, so there's rarely little chance for missing it.
Rarely not a hoot to see. Enjoy it regularly right here on CS.

I'm shopping for an electric toothbrush. O ral-B looks like the company to buy from as they are available locally. Four models with prices and features are listed on their website. Seriously technology has (in my opinion) gone too far. Who would have thought that Bluetooth connectivity would be an important feature for a toothbrush. 10 meters is the extent of a Bluetooth signal. that would mean if I walked more than 33 feet my cellphone would alert me I've traveled out of range. Important?

WARNING, WARNING !! Bluetooth signal lost... brushing out of sequence.

There's been so many lies by Trump, one would have difficulty remembering them all.

For instance;

The virus is a hoax by the democrats.
Mexico will pay for the wall.
Russia had nothing to do with online interference with the campaign. I believe Putin.
I'm a stable genius.
The meeting with the Russian woman was about adoptions.
I hire the best of the best.
Nobody has done more for the blacks than me.
We're going to win so much, that you'll be tired of winning.
I fired Comey, because he mishandled Hilary's email situation.
Nobody understands this more than me.
I know more about the military than the generals.
I'm in great shape.
Sessions should not have recused himself.
The virus will be gone like a miracle when the weather gets warmer in March.
The reason California has fires, is because they don't rake the forest like they do in Finland.
The blacks love me.
I will eliminate the national debt.
I will drain the swamp.
There was no quid pro quo.
Lock her up.
I was only in the bunker to inspect it.
There were very fine people on both sides.
The hurricane was supposed to hit Alabama.
I will rebuild the infrastructure.
Nobody knew that.
The Middle East is simple. I'll get them together and negotiate. It's what I do.
This was the greatest witch hunt in history.
They loved me in Puerto Rico.
No president was treated as bad as I am.
It's Obama's fault.
Ted Cruz's father conspired with Lee Harvey Oswald.
I will re-build the infrastructure.
My inauguration crowd was huge. It set a record.
You're going to win so much, that you'll be tired of winning.

I know that there's so many Trump lies, about 12,000 so far.
And clearly he's not done. Unfortunately, his term doesn't end for about another 6 months.
So, lots more lies are likely on the way.

But, if you had to choose a few, which were your 'favorite' Trump lies ?

Take me back to Tulsa, I'm too young to marry. The choice of venue is diagnostic of Trump Derangement-Hilary Deficit Syndromes. Originally planned for yesterday, alleged historical date of freedom for the slaves. Sadly, while some minorities are changing fast, many still remain in bondage. Bound to the Democrats, who have for generations talked the talk, but never really walked the walk. Walks on making their living spaces livable, in creating excellent public schools for all, in never making the welfare destruction of the once formidable black family intact again, and lots more. So, the jive is getting thin. Just listen to creepy, sniffy Joe Biden. Same old, same old. But oh no, here I go digressing again.
Where was I? Oh yes, that ditty about Tulsa. Tulsa. Really the date. If a leftie had planned the same, the media and political wags would be all for it. Saturation on the airwaves. But the syndrome dictates thinking and behaviors. So it is angrily cast as a most sinister, evil, negative choice. Well, then, He changes it by a day. Syndrome kicks in once more, as there was a massacre there, White on Black, allegedly decades ago. In line with all the tribal massacres over time in Oklahoma, and elsewhere, by the Noble Savage herself. And recall the ratio. Several hundred Black males murdered by their own tribe, to each one killed by some bad cop. Bad cops and apples indeed. Red Man Bad, Red Man Bad, Red Man Bad... sort of goes along with the tom toms, no?
Listen. If He were to schedule a rally on Good Friday, who really doubts, after watching three years of failed witch hunts, and now this, the reactions would be the same. Can't make this up folks. And don't take my words for it. See the riots, arson, looting, suppression of history, and silly brand PC. Tribal indeed.
Sure, it's risky. But if B Hussein O, or Bubba Clinton were to do such, the praise for being willing to take risks, as a real states-person, would be the media mantra. You all know it's true.
