    Sadly the wokeness of the world might mean that classics like this won’t exist in the future…

    Whatever your political persuasion may be, everyone has seen enough of this fool in his underwear, smoking crack. Even the hookers have had enough.

    When you hang out with lowlifes and do illegal things together, many compromising situations need to be kept secret. And do those things with elites from say, Ukraine, and now we have a security issue.

    How about this train derailment Chem leak in OH? Sounds like a terrible disaster for our environment.

    Stop her mid sentence trying to avoid the trigger...you can GIVE..BLAH,blahblah..
    But she didn't stop when I said don't ask no one's asking me for money in this economy! Sorry but no. She continued WTH!
    Well here's the deal you ppl get rid of Mitch McConnell and I'll consider it but not til then
    Her come back, I understand many are saying this and many of us aren't happy he maintained his position, BUT...
    NO BUTS!!!!!! Here's the deal I was a Dem 40 yrs then switched. 40 Yeatrs because Republicans can not stop shooting their own feet off! When they stop doing that they may see my money until then they can bite me. Seriously sorry but no should have been enough.

    If any little peeon,such as...me for sure, could donate enough to garner influence, Mitch would not have gotten away with his last election purse string BS.

    I am going to give the guys at the oil change place a heart attack. I am pretty sure they have me in the computer as DO NOT TRY TO UP SELL. Today when I get my oil change I am going to tell them to throw some new wiper blades.

    Wait? What??? You don't change you own oil. While it doesn't pay for me to drive in 30 miles to get both of my vehicles an oil change, the wife drives by 3 oil change places every day during the week. She buys the oil and filter, then drives home and makes me do it. After a 12 hour day, just what I want to do. She says she doesn't trust any place but me to do it. She is just cheap and a penny pincher!! In fact, this weekend I get to lay on the cold ground and change oil on her car because the " heated " farm shop is full with trucks.

    When she buys wind shield wipers for her car, she always asks them if they are hard to put on. Never fails, one of them will walk out of the store and put them on for her. She is the Master of Working the system!!! They've been putting wipers on her car for 20 years. I walk into Napa " with her " to get wipers for my vehicles and ask them if they are hard to put on... they and her just laugh at me. No one comes out other than me to put them on.

    I have not worked on a vehicle in years. I could, I have done it in the past. It's good to have a company vehicle where everything is paid for.

    You're not making me feel better. I have to change oil on the company's 5 vehicles. I don' t get to drive them home. Then there are the 6 tractors, 2 combines, 7 trucks, payloader, bobcat plus a few more.

    I bet you are glad to have the company's vehicle with all the miles you drive for work. I only have 6 miles to get to work.

    Yeah that 20, ooo mile a year lease is over by 35,000 miles and the lease is up in November it will have over 100,000. so I will be 40,000 miles over lease miles. I guess I will be buying it for the wife. I drive at least 166 miles per day. It is funny when you look at engine hours vs miles and average MPH. That truck spends 2 hours a day at 80 MPH.

    Have you seen the photo of Lebron's shot? 1 person in the shot did not have their phone up, enjoy the moment people put the damn phone down.

    Went to the doctor for a post op check up and CT scan to make sure everything is looking good after surgery. Nice nurse but could not find a vain. I'm sure it isn't an easy job but getting poked over and over again starts to hurt after a while.

    I used to be dilligent in giving blood.

    They'd ask 'do you have an arm preference?' And i'd play the uno reverse card and ask them 'are you any good at finding a vein?'. The responses were interesting, but if there was a shread of doubt they'd get my dominent arm...the confident answers would get my other arm.

    Surprisingly easy way to weed out the newbs or people who aren't good in their field.

    Minnesota sports teams. The Wolves suck, they are always going to suck. The Wild are the wild even if they somehow make the playoffs they will never get out of the first round, once those seasons mercifully end, we get to watch the Twins not compete with the big boy teams.
