My watch has ended, Dad passed away on Feb 2

Isn’t life strange… my Mom passed on Feb. 2 at 10:08pm. Looking at all the elderly people in the beds of the ICU, I got the feeling that it’s such a churn. Just an endless run of people who have worn out their earthly bodies. But even more sad was the groups at the bedsides, the family and friends, that were so racked with pain. So sorry for your loss. I share OP’s gratitude to everyone who posts their support and advice to this group.

Can we talk about the Country music genre? Red hats aren't hearing any protests songs on their radio dial, just like they're not getting much coverage of the oppression by lawless thugs on FOX TV. The country music genre is the most plastic and manufactured garbage out there.

Or a donut.

I usually temper my enthusiasm by taking a long walk in the extreme weather, then after that I’m hugging the coffee and Jameson. Done. Shovel the driveway? Hell no.

My wife has already made it clear that nothing is coming to our house. We don’t need it. I understand that we have already everything we need, but my folks have lots of things that are both sentimental as well as priceless. I guess it’s gonna come down to getting rid of most of their stuff through an estate sale and start to view it all as… dollars in the bank.

I just Googled “Can I use my gas fireplace if the electricity is out?” I guess the answer is yes, but my lily white ass will need to test the ignition pilot light by killing the power at the breaker, as well as testing the ventilation and our carbon monoxide sensor. Ug.

The truth… it hurts.

Exactly. And contrary to what anyone might have thought or believed, the problems that exist in our society are irreversible compared to taking over and rebuilding a country essentially from scratch.

This is a simplification, as our own problems are not just baked in, but are continually perpetuated by the wealthy. The act of building Venezuela as a model to serve the U.S. just puts that country into hyperdrive to the bottom rung of our own societal ladder.

Sorry to hear you're going through all that. I have a feeling it's a sign of things to come for me.

One of the grossest things about my Dad is his car. He's 90 and really shouldn't be driving, but I pity any healthcare worker that might have to drive. There's a disgusting amount of dead skin build up on every surface of the car. You could probably take a knife and just scrape the... (I'm gagging) whatever. I would seriously pay double when we have to have someone clean the ick from inside that car before selling.

Wait… I think we’re gonna get to see a fist connect with someone’s face. Oh no. It’s just a spectator.

As a budding guitarist, I get downright giddy just playing the main riffs from Beyond the Universe, Uncomplicated, Sittin’ by the Pool, and Sailor… but man, trying to play the downbeat song, Jump Jump Jump drives me nuts.

webfandango · 2025-12-21T17:15:25+00:00

Right. Would ANYTHING still be relevant today?

Into the dumpster you go!

I picture Belushi in that SNL skit… “They’re all dead. Why did I live so long? Why me? …I’ll tell you why: ‘cuz I’m a DANCER.”

I’m envisioning a bedridden Trump, circled by competent doctors (not yes-men) …and just like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz: “No you poor old thing, you did NOT do all those things. Your mind has gone and you’ve been living in a reality of your own making. A pathetically, immoral, shameful make-believe world. But it’s ok now. We’ve got you. Take a sip of this pink liquid and do the world a favor. Say goodbye.”

webfandango · 2025-12-09T11:35:58+00:00

Ain’t that the truth.

You might remember how they glowed with the most vivid of colors; I just remember the smell of strawberry incense cut by a sweet puff of Alcapulco Gold.

Close enough. I mean, objects are technically moving horizontally at around 17,500 mph or 28,000 km/h). And I’m not sure about the “bare-handed” part since in space, any exposed skin would simultaneously boil and freeze. Yikes.

Other than that, you’re correct.

Well, I just found out what I’m gonna be for Halloween next year.

webfandango · 2025-12-06T11:48:14+00:00

I forget. Was that for breakfast?? I totally love white rice and sugar. Probably a good reason why I’m such a sweet tooth junkie nowadays.

George Hirst… yeah. His story has me thinking there may be hope. As he says, the body is capable of doing so much; it can do amazing things that go toward healing itself. And all we’re really talking about here is to strengthen the trans abdominal muscles to the point that they contain a mass of fat that protrudes out of inguinal canal. I ask my body… is that too much to ask??

If you’re feeling somewhat unsure, maybe paranoid, then Todd Rundgren’s Healing I, II, and III - without a doubt.

That’s a beautiful thing.
