    Another baseball related rant, last weekend the Twins retired Joe Mauer's number. I am sick of listening to the blind homers that believe Joe belongs in Cooperstown, he does not matter of fact there are no other HOF catchers that have a single batting title so 3 is not a reason to be in the HOF as a catcher.

    When you live in Minnesota and the only snakes you have are non poison and you are in Florida and you have a black snake in the pool area and it shakes it's tail and strikes out at you it is kinda concerning. Used a croc to prop the screen door open and a pool net to get the evil reptile out.

    When strangers want to walk up to your door and pay no attention to the 2 beware of dog signs and the 125lb monster at the end of his rope trying to get at them and you have to tell the people to leave that the dog is not friendly and don’t come any closer. Then they proceed to come forward to try hand out there political pamphlets.

    I had my two dogs at our bar the other night during horseshoes league. When no one was outside by the pits I let the dogs out for a bathroom break. The small one is a pit mix female about 60 pounds and still a puppy, the other is an 80 pound male black moth cur. The one in my avatar. His name is MF Jones for a reason.

    Anyway, this one guy who is a real pita, sees me and comes outside to talk to me. The dogs come up to check him out and he grabs the little one by the muzzle and plants a kiss on her nose. He then reaches for MF Jones and I tell him "No! Don't try that with him!" and he does anyway. Well he got nipped in the face but no blood or damage. He got lucky.

    What makes people think that they can do that with strange dogs? I would never put my face by a strange dogs mouth..... ever.

    Kayakers with no sense. River is 75 yds wide. And the stretch of river the kayakers are utilizing is a half mile long. So why in the hell would you paddle up to my little fishing hole and bank your kayaks by my feet as I'm fishing? Class A DUMB.

    not to argue but I agree with the statues...

    Dems are liberal feel-good CauseHeads

    Republicans are conservative Patriots

    where's the indoctrination?

    (I mean the constituencies. The parties themselves....well...)

    One is gray and old school looking. Aging. Dark.

    The other is colorful and titled something like "the diversity".....

    One looks preferred over the other in the light while the other sits in the darkness.

    Spending your one day off installing a new door in a historic home and the tenant has the audacity to piss and moan about "letting all the cool air out" and wants some money taken off the rent. So tired of being a decent landlord, damned if you do, damned if don't. Wonder how much she will cry when I shove a for sale sign in the yard next month.

    Having to disassemble the master bathroom sink plumbing at 10 pm because the drain plug broke in the closed position and the sink can't drain. In the middle of the process, coming to the sad realization that the previous owners glued all the under-the-sink piping together instead of using the screw-together PVC pipes. I may end up completely redoing the drain pipe into the wall just to replace the stupid drain plug with a working one.
