As usual, the big one below the fold.

So I came out to this-

 This morning.
Fucking animals.

No, seriously- it was donkeys, and I should have kept the box in the bed of the truck.

But-
Out with the old-

On with the new-

Next is a commanding horn instead of a subdued harmony.
The Dakota had a better horn that either of the more expensive trucks.

Winter is coming

That's what NOAA and the local weather-guessers said.
Be prepared for freezing temps.

32 is freezing.

32 and calm winds is freezing.
40 and windy feels a lot colder than 32 and calm.
Modern horses evolved on the steppes of northern Europe with brutal cold winters.

Mini horses have a lot of hardy Shetland Ponies in them.
I tell the wife this, but she insists on "taking care of them"

So we get this- for a night that didn't even put a skim of ice on the water troughs....

We now live in the movie "Idiocracy"

 The only things they got wrong were:

-Flushing Lay-Z-boys
-Bar coded IDs
-A way to optimistic 500 years into the future.

I'm going to get ahead of this right now.

 A polling machine is nothing but a glorified adding machine. WHY does it need to be connected to the internet and have votes shipped somewhere besides the election headquarters?

All the way up to Y2K and the FLA kerfuffle- we knew who the winner was that night.
Now that the Dems got what they wanted in Y2K -it takes days or weeks to decide who won.

When are we going to start hearing about the bags of Democrat votes "found" in abandoned warehouses nobody's been to in years?
When are we going to be hearing about the votes "accidentally" left in rental cars returned yesterday?

Will Republicans act like anything other than the slightly more responsible side of the Uniparty?
My bet is -NO.

And I ended up having to buy a Ford, because the Z-71 Sierra had dashboard lighting problems.

 The shooter on the "grassy knoll"

I wish I could wait on firing the money canon, but the Dakota- being a Dodge decided that now was the time it wanted a $260 battery... or a battery AND alternator.
I already spent too much back in Feb. when gas was going through the roof and EVERYBODY was looking for smaller trucks.
Plus it's a Dodge, so I knew it was going to need new front end parts... Then a differential....

But....
The big puzzle below the fold

I'm trying to talk myself out of this

 2017 Sierra 2500.

Or this F-250 ...Which won't be that hard because of what I think about Fords.

I really like my Silverado but it's showing it's age- and it's a damage magnet.
Of all the damage it had done to it, I only did two hickies. The rest were added by second parties, including getting rear0ebded twice,

Oak trees

 There are many different species of oaks, but they are basically divided into White Oaks and Red oaks.
Red Oaks have more varieties than White oaks.
 

Red Oak acorns need stratification, but White oaks don't.
Post Oaks are White Oaks, so I can directly plant the acorns that dropped into planters and set them out on the porch.

Oak trees are hardy and don't need special care once germinated as long as you don't damage the roots in replanting.

I am going to start acorns in foot long bags on the porch and hopefully enough will survive to be planted to make path from our island of oaks to the forest that we are separated from- about 150 yards.

Our Estonian Soldier talks about Ukrain again.

Question for anyone who knows tanks- At about 2:47, are those main guns supposed to be flopping around like that, a Russian tank thing?

The 13th Doctor- and the legacy of failure

   I First got into Dr. Who during homeports in Gulfport in the mid '80s and watched him whenever I could after that and I followed the new Who every week. and every special.

I quit watching about the time the Italian guy became the Dr.

I knew the chick was going to finish ruining Dr. Who -and The Critical Drinker takes the (modern) show to the wood shed and beats it like a red headed stepchild.

We've seen this movie before

 The head of the FBI will stand up somewhere and read all they have on Hunter Biden, then say nobody would prosecute him, so they're dropping the investigation and that's the end of it.

Right James Comey?
Right Hillary! ?

If I'm reporting a FB ad as a scam

 Why would FB think I wanted more information on that solar company?
Or the Shysters wanting me to sue a plant killer?
Or the scam artists who want me to sue someone because of the water at Camp LeJune?

The Hummer H3

 When you need to overcompensate, but your wallet is little too.....

Something wierd happened yesterday

 And I'm still trying to figure out. 

 I'm in the process of putting in a new panel box- with a new meter to replace the 75 year old panel box that was feeding a mixture of knob and tube wireing and ancient fabric Romex.

 It's basically a completely separate circuit except where it gets fed from the transformer. I ran a new line to the 220V well pump and put in the double pole breaker -It's a GE instead of the Square D the other one is- I accidentally put that breaker on the same phase (GE is different than Square D) and came in the house. 

 The kitchen lights and everything on that circuit didn't work- until they wanted to. I KNOW I didn't touch that breaker, and everything looks good. 

Then the wife said we didn't have water-- which is when I found out about not having the pump on two different phases. I moved it and now EVERYTHING works like it's supposed to.

 HOW did sending two of the same phase to my well pump affect one circuit on a completely different panel box- with different feed (old one is #4 triplex overhead) into it?

As usual, the big one below the fold

I saw gas under $3.00 in two cities

 San Antonio and Austin.

Which means that maybe by Nov. 8 gas (not diesel) will be somewhere around where it was when 0biden took office.

Then after Nov. 8, gas will be free to go up as much as it wants because the election is done and the SFR will be almost empty.

 Good time girls.

With the bigger one below the fold-

Picture this...

You reupped for PWD Rota, Spain in the mid 80's.
Herman's (The German) Schnitzel haus right on the playa.
Bennies bar, Zepplins the Sangria Shack....

You're living on the economy and Shorties(best fried rice I've had at 3AM and breakfast on leftovers at 0500) is about two blocks from your place.... 

Dependents (wives, chicks), female sailors and expats all have the run of the base... 

 Gawd, I loved Rota.

I'm sure you Army guys and AF have some base like this....
