Me three. After 40 years of getting up at 3:30 AM, old habits are hard to break even in retirement.
I do enjoy the sound of the birds in the morning though.
And coffee.

Seeing that apple pie comment, I have to brag. I have a few customers truly devoted to my pies. One told me yesterday, after a previously purchased apple pie: "That was the best apple pie I've ever had". He's 76. Made me happy.

That's what made it so tough when working. I get to the parking lot about 4:45 AM. Finishing my coffee in the car, the sun sometimes peeking over the expressway bridge, knowing that it was a 75 percent chance of crap storm with intermittent fires waiting for me.

Repost from the dead-
An update from yesterday when I mentioned the terrible crash at Indy by Sebastien Bordais -
Multiple pelvis fractures and a broken hip. If you've not seen the replay of the crash, watch it at regular speed. Slow motion doesn't do it justice.
That he's still alive is truly amazing. The worst head on racing crash I've ever seen. Traveling somewhere around 230 mph when he hit the wall.

Cord cutters. Now I see that Youtube is offering a TV service with live TV available in limited markets for now. They plan on expanding the live service. The better news is that they have a pretty robust sounding DVR service included. Right now it's only available on your IOS, Android devices, and chromecast. Might be worth keeping an eye on it though.

If "they" don't figure out a way to slow the cars down at tracks like Indy, somebody's gonna get killed and the drivers will stop.
Going into a virtually flat turn at 238 miles per hour is freaking crazy.
It's just too fast.

I think I've come up with the proper term for what all the 'unnamed' and 'anonymous' and 'spoken only on the condition of anonymity' so-called 'leakers' are doing to the Trump presidency.
I think it should be called the 'Cowards Coup'.
This republic was not established by cowards; and cowards will not preserve it.

I mentioned yesterday in something unrelated, that the ability of our nerve cells to fire off information to our brain, then back again to our hands and feet is restricted to a speed estimated at 200 miles per hour.
Expecting humans to be able to achieve results bordering on the physically and mentally impossible hour after hour, is simply waiting for the horrific to occur.

A phrase we need to use more often to describe all of these "anonymous sources": Yellow Journalism.
Despite how debased the history curriculum is these days, they still teach about yellow journalism. If you use those words to describe the globalist media and their tactics, it'll have a lot more credibility than "fake news", because they know it's a thing that actually happened before.
Just getting the reflexive, disinterested, habitual left to question their sources will win more recruits for our cause than anything else we could do.

Yes, yellow journalism is exactly what it is.
In another time and place the practitioners might have been shamed into stopping the practice. But the entire concept of 'shame' has been entirely rejected by the left.
Any method they can employ in furtherance of the cause is now acceptable.

This cowardly stuff of whispering trash talk in a journalists ear who dutifully reports it is a new chapter. Not unrelated to the morality of Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
The Chapter 11 Morally Bankrupt Cowards Coup.

U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer reaffirmed on Sunday that the United States will not return to the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.

The only thing it is good for now is as a lever to keep China in line and continue pressuring North Korea.
So I'd keep it on the shelf within easy reach.

California is debating making pot legal in the state.
Ok, more like, California is debating making the state a sanctuary state for pot growing, distribution, selling and consumption.
What could go wrong?

In my neck of the woods was Villanova University. Not far away was an all girls school called Harcum Junior College.
The Villanova guys had an expression, 'Harkum, Parkum, and Farkum'. Back before PC. Now use of said expression might be rape.

Legalizing pot hasn't done much for Colorado in terms of making roads or schools better because of all that sweet tax revenue. But we do have a robust urban camper population here in Denver and the po-po are busier than ever. So. We got that going for us. Diversity. 11!!1!ty

"Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings."
---------------------
Pray for the persecuted church. Estimates are that about 100,000 Christians a year are murdered because of their faith.

I think it's obvious what the game plan is. The liberal media is trying to use what they think conservatives are spooked by, in order to manipulate them into behaving the way that liberals want.
They think that conservatives are afraid of Russkies, so they reinvent the red scare. They think that conservatives would be spooked by another flood (despite God promising in the Bible that he would not flood the earth again), so they reference that. They are throwing sh*t against the wall and hoping something sticks.

I work for a large chemical company. One day, I asked our HR person in CO how the pot legalization had affected our business. She said it was now incredibly difficult to find temps and lower paid employees for the plant for two reasons. 1) even though pot is legal, since we still do drug testing, pot smokers don't want to work for us and 2) we're in competition with the stores that sell the pot for the same employee pool. They can work at the pot stores, which apparently are popping up on every street corner, and make a higher hourly wage plus, they don't have to worry about drug testing.
Let more states do this and the fabric of our country will continue to slip away.

But it actually has more relevance when read in conjunction with the second link concerning Baltimore public schools.

As you can probably guess, that's the story with most big city schools now. The city I live near, has a similar graduation rate. The administrators and the local media ring their hands and wonder what to do....reorganize, that fixes everything, (not) Suburban schools, totally different story.
Maxine Waters must be a product of a great city school somewhere. And they are probably proud of her, with a shrine in the school too her.

"One Chicago" is launching Sunday afternoon at the DuSable Museum of African American History. The campaign is a big reminder that Chicago is a sanctuary city.
President Trump has threatened to cut off federal funding to so-called "sanctuary cities," but so far, a federal judge has blocked that executive order. And now cities, like Chicago, are sending a direct message to their residents, you are home here.
They're illegal residents. Time to toss Tiny Dancer in jail along with the rest of the scum that openly supports breaking the law

Steve and Cold Bear - I don't trust the Saudis any further than I can throw them, but for the first time in a long, long time, they need us more than we need them. They are scared sh*tless of a nuclear Iran (thanks, Obama! there's the silver lining to your treasonous Iran deal!) and they are hurting financially due to slumping oil prices (thank, American frackers! Love you guys!) The Saudis are bowing to us. And it feels great.

Here is a recent note from a pastor friends church newsletter:
"When things get worrisome, as they sometimes do, I like to play a game with those I'm with. It's called "The Good News Is....." One of us starts, and has to complete that sentence, "The Good News is....,I am alive and breathing." Then it's the others turn: "The Good News Is, we've been in this situation before, and we've come through." And we go back and forth until the exchange feels complete. It's a great way to turn things around when we find ourselves surrounded by negatives. The Good News....actually the Great News-is that, in God, we live and move and have our being. God surrounds us everyday, His love is never far away. His possibilities are endless. His goodness is ours for the accepting.
Friend, can you think of three ways to complete the sentence, "The Good News Is...."? I invite you too try it and turn your day around.
O.K. I will:
It's a beautiful day outside. I have people in my life who love and like me. In a few hours I will be on my way to spend a couple of days with clergy friends at a meeting where-besides business, we will share prayer, Holy Communion, worship and some laughs.

By all accounts, the King made every diplomatic gesture possible to send the message that in the case of President Trump, he was meeting an individual of equal stature. Everything from the greeting to the placement of the American flag at equal height to the Saudi flag were considered, and done.
Pretty significant in my view.

By all accounts, the King made every diplomatic gesture possible to send the message that in the case of President Trump, he was meeting an individual of equal stature. Everything from the greeting to the placement of the American flag at equal height to the Saudi flag were considered, and done.
Pretty significant in my view.

Yeah the frackers are important. But I'm sure the Saud family can pick up a newspaper, read about the Nork nuke/missile program and they know damn well the Norks and Iran are butt buddies.
Hence, whispers of Middle East Nato program.
I may be imagining things but I seem to recall some recent favorable signs in Saud/Israel relations.
It may take decades to repair the Middle East from the damage done by Obama, but that would be a helpful first step.

The World's Worst Cold is really getting annoying. Not as bad as the flu, but I started with a runny nose 2.5 weeks ago and am still not over it. It just moved into my chest on Thursday, which is usually a sign I'm almost over a cold. Still stuffed up, still coughing.
Posted by: Mama AJ at May 21, 2017 08:12 AM (wwL6Q)
I just got over that about two weeks ago. One of the worst (and longest) I've ever had.
Stuff used:
Nyquil Caps
DayQuil Liquid
Tylenol Caps
Goody's powders
Dollar Store Mucinex
Benadryl Caps (just in case)
I threw the whole medicine cabinet at it. Took 2 1/2 weeks to get over. Never had anything close to that before. Almost felt like Pneumonia symptoms. I have no idea where I picked it up, either.

The Doomsday Arctic Seed Vault, opened in Norway a decade ago to big fanfare (and designed to be self sustaining for 1,000 years!), has a flooding problem. The entryway filled up with water, then froze like a glacier.
And so now they are staffing the place 24/7, and installing pumps to keep the water out.
It seems that these geniuses didn't account for a warming Arctic, or the fact that permafrost isn't really perma.
It seems they didn't believe their own hype on Globull Warming, though the Arctic has been warming for the last 40 years. bwahaha
PS The seeds themselves, 1 million different types, didn't get wet.

To anyone thinking of going to San Fran, I was just there a few months ago. More urban campers than ever, often parked outside nice retail spots on major streets. In walking from a store back to my hotel at dusk, I felt nervous and on edge. So many panhandlers, some quite aggressive.
The Wharf is still beautiful, cable cars fun to ride (long wait tho!) and Lombard St. is cool as ever. But it seems like the place is being overcome with dirty old hippies who are high on something other than life.
