Cool and clear, chance of rain. Like yesterday, only 100% more rain. The rain we did get was in the middle of the night, with drying ground in the morning. That is the BEST kind of rain. And we’re 3/4 of the way through March and we have summer highs. It was well into the 80s yesterday, with 84F as the sun went down. After that it was perfect weather for driving around with the windows down. So I did.
Did some work at D2’s school to start off the day. Got most of the sound work done, and the one lighting task I had on my list. Spent some time talking with the teacher, who is only part time, and does a lot of it as a volunteer. She and her husband seem to be good people.
I was still being careful all morning, but my back was loosening up. I went to the chiropractor after school and got some relief as things moved back into place.
I spent the afternoon doing pickups at a couple of auctioneers. Then I went grocery shopping.
We’re paying $4 per dozen large white eggs. Roughly. I buy the 18 packs for $6. Single packs of 12 were ‘limit five’ but 18 packs were unlimited. I picked up a new flavor ice cream from Blue Bell– banana fudge. I’m not a big fan of either, but why not try it? It has a “thin” taste. Not a lot of flavor, and it doesn’t stick around. Trying new flavors is cheaper than getting a girlfriend or a sports car…
Today I’ve got Dr visit in the morning, then pickups, then kid stuff. I might try to get to my client’s house to do some diagnostics and triage. Seems they got a bad lightning storm… and now some other stuff doesn’t work right. Lightning plays hell on electronics. I’ll try to fit another chiropractic appointment in too.
Then Thursday I’ll spend the day working at my client’s place.
Meanwhile, stack something to eat. Got spices? Got enough sugar to can fruit? Salt to do pickles?

First post.
I found my name once in San Antonio. Some guy with the exact same name. Same guy that screwed up my credit rating because we shared the exact same name. About the same age. He was a real deadbeat and it took some time to get his really bad financial scewups off my report. He was murdered. I can’t say I was sad.
Second post.
Subbing today. Maybe the truck will be finished.
Not long ago, you could see that blue streak on Tulsi Gabbard’s page at the WEF web site, helping to drive that agenda along with fellow member Wee Pierre.
Never forget, whether with the Orange Man or any of the people under his “big tent”.
Trump hired Gabbard to do a particular job.
And maybe it’s maybeline…

“Trying new flavors is cheaper than getting a girlfriend or a sports car…”
Assuredly.
But, what is cheaper between the two? LOL.
Reminds me of that old wisdom I once heard from a friend: If it floats, flies, or fornicates, it’s cheaper to rent than buy.
Of course, he’s lost money on boaats, planes, and is in the highest maintenance marriage I know.
About 91 yesterday.
Hauled the small quiet Haier Q series a/c out of storage and stuck it in a window, it kept the great room at 75F.
It is supposed to cool down by this weekend.
If you’re married the girlfriend ends up costing you half of everything you have. The car- probably not half.
Unless you wreck it and it costs you everything.
N
“But, what is cheaper between the two? LOL.”
getting a girlfriend is much cheaper than getting a sports car
keeping either is expensive
getting rid of a sports car is much cheaper than getting rid of a girlfriend
snd although you know when a car is gone, you’re seldom sure about the girlfriend
I found the article about my daughter’s friend’s father’s crash. It lists it as a single vehicle crash around midnight going too fast lost control at the exit flip the car. No mention of bullet holes in the vehicle like the kid said. But it is listed as being investigated by the Sheriff’s Office of vehicular crimes.
Mom has started a GoFundMe where she lists the guy as an angel and a good provider which is curious because he spent most the last 10 years in prison and is asking for money to bury him and to make their rent and stuff. Of course he was not paying the rent anyway. Mom is of course not a great person which is why daughter’s friend wants out of the household.
We have a great deal of Sympathy for the daughter. Even scumbag drug dealers have kids who love them. But I’m not paying the dirtbags rent. Does that make me the bad guy?
N
No, not at all. The same thing happens here. Some piece of mouse turd gets killed, or dies from drugs, and the family paints them as the person who would give anyone the shirt off their back. When in reality the person stole from family, takes packages from porches, walks out of the grocery store without paying, etc. Real world welfare king or queen.
Then when the person dies the family will start a GoFundMe to pay for funeral expenses, food for the family, utilities, rent, etc.
Uh, nope. If the person and family were that irresponsible when the person was alive, there is no guarantee the money donated will go for the intended purpose. These families are not getting a dime from my pockets. They chose that lifestyle, so live it. Tough noogies.
Dr says that the previous round of testing was inconclusive so I’ll go one more time to be sure. He’ll have to get approval and schedule it though.
At least my stress test and echo-cardiogram were good.

Fauxahontas: Ypu’re lying again. Please punch yourself in the face and shut up.
There is no way Dooshberg was added to the Signal chat by accident. Our family uses Signal, so I’m familiar with the app. Some RINO or DeepState PLT got him added to continue the resistance. You still have to use a phone number to register on Signal, but you can now obscure that with a “handle” for chats. If you don’t absolutely know who’s behind a handle, you wouldn’t add to a chat. Maybe the Widow Jobs got him to reveal the chat. What kind of patriot would do this just to GET tRUMP! A commie, pinko bastard, that’s who.
Taxes are done. Filed with On-Line Taxes, Inc. and accepted by the IRS a mere 23 minutes later. I do have a refund coming, that’s good.
I’m not complaining but I’m complaining. I appreciate the very very unexpected $25,000 Ma Bell sent as a death benefit. I shoved it into a couple of 26 week t-bills. It came from out of the blue, thank you nice lady at Fidelity! I appreciate they withheld $2500, too. Kind of blew my “tax budget” in a way.
I’m getting a $1300 refund from the $5000 total withheld. I suppose I should feel all patriotic and she’it that I’ve contributed $10 a day towards wasteful government spending…. I don’t, not an iota. Maybe I need a few beers to change my mind.
Next year I’ll be filing single and then I can fine tune, down if needed,. how much I pull from the 401k a month.
Oh, and Win11 is pissing me off. See, I have downloads saved to the Desktop. The latest “improvement” is to stack downloads under the Recycle Bin and not under the last file in the columns of icons on my desktop. Super. Mess up my Desktop by tossing s(h)irt all over the place. Just super.
The latest “desktop zoom” feature is kinda cool. Wake the machine and when the Desktop or Lock Screen appear they zoom about an inch and a half to fit the screen. Most of the time. I haven’t changed anything.
I filed extensions on our biz and personal taxes after the death of our CPA. I’m currently hunting for a reasonable CPA firm to do both. I hate doing taxes. I did our personal and biz taxes for years. I may return to TurboTax and do our 1040 next year. Ugh, I’m hurting just thinking about house sales, purchases, IRAs, other income, firing up our LLC and add that to our 1040 after MrsAtoz “retires” and only works through our LLC and not the C Corp biz. Ugh.
I have a dog question.
Fred was a Britanny Spaniel. He never turned gray or changed color with age. Lived to be almost 16. But, white dog… Wilma didn’t change much. Her hips went out at 15 but otherwise she was good for a couple more years. Dino was mostly black/dark reddish brown and his face turned silver and he was almost 16 like his dad, Fred.
Penny will be 14 in October. Her face has turned white. Her feet, too. Actually, she’s gotten kinda gray all over. The color going up her legs. She’s getting creaky. So, maybe I understand this…. I am SO not looking forward to this.
What I don’t know is how dog noses turn pink with age. I’ve seen old dogs with pink noses. I figure it’s like turning gray? But I’ve never asked “how old is the puppy?”.
Anyway. Buddy the Beagle was maybe 5 or 6 and a bag o’ bones when he showed up. Just by the tartar on his teeth. Here we are 4+ years later and his nose is turning pink.
How long do beagles live?
And… why does it feel like everything around me is dying?

I had court yesterday. To probate his will. Seems there is a 4 year limit to get it done and then it gets expensive.
So it’s my turn in front of the judge. “Has he been deceased less than four years?” Ah yeah…. “He’s been gone three weeks shy of today, I saw his eyes dilate and I really don’t know what in my head is keeping track of all of this. But after 42 years, whatever.”
Judge was cool. My lawyer was cool. Wide eyes, both. I’m happy I didn’t say “shit” or “what the fuck”. It’s probated. I try to not cuss like a fucking sailor…. mostly.
There is still some kind of appraisal thing. Some real estate bullshit valuation thing that also looks at the value of the crappy furniture in the house. Hey, send someone you trust and let me know when so I can vacuum and dust, ok?

“Dear Fellow Texans –
This week, as a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, I took part in a hearing to raise awareness about the growing threats we face around the world.
I had the chance to speak with the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, about the conflicts in Europe and the serious risks they pose to global stability.
As Russia continues to threaten the peace and security of our allies, both overtly with the War in Ukraine and covertly through acts of sabotage and subversion, many countries are starting to consider arming themselves with nuclear weapons—a move that could have even more serious implications.
President Trump understands the value of peace through strength, making it very clear: It is time for the war in Ukraine to end.
I commend President Trump for his incredible efforts to restore peace to this region, de-escalate global tensions, and end the bloodshed. His vision for securing peace in this dangerous world is an act of moral leadership, and I believe he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize if successful.
I will continue to support the President and his efforts to keep Texas and our country safer for future generations.
For Texas,
John”
I agree with our Senior Senator from Texas, John Cornyn. Biden should have stopped this war immediately. Instead, Biden encouraged the war and millions of people are dead. Many more millions are displaced and now refugees. President Trump has made it a goal of his first 100 days in office to stop the war immediately.
President Trump does deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.
https://grok.com/?q=did+robert+heinlein+invent+the+work+grok++%3F
“did robert heinlein invent the work grok ?”
“Yes, Robert A. Heinlein did invent the word “grok.” He introduced it in his 1961 science fiction novel Stranger in a Strange Land. In the book, “grok” is a Martian word that roughly translates to understanding something or someone deeply and intuitively, often implying a profound empathy or connection. Heinlein created the term, and it has since entered popular culture, even finding its way into some dictionaries due to its widespread use. Pretty cool legacy for a writer, right?”

“EIA: US crude oil inventories down 3.3 million bbl”
https://www.ogj.com/general-interest/article/55277569/eia-us-crude-oil-inventories-down-33-million-bbl
“March 26, 2025”
“At 433.6 million bbl, US crude oil inventories are about 5% below the 5-year average for this time of year, the EIA report indicated.”
Crude oil is the most volatile commodity in the world. At any given moment, there are hundreds of crude oil freighters on the high seas moving crude oil from the countries with excess amounts to countries with crude oil shortages.
I believe that we are approaching another period of peak oil due to exploding usage of crude oil across the planet and many of the world super giant oil reservoirs are past their peak production rates. The USA is incredibly blessed in that we are producing almost 14 million barrels of crude oil per day right now. The total world production is around 83 million barrels of crude oil per day and increasing due to the USA.

Heinlein also invented the waterbed, the waldo, and the IR switch for room lights, using the modern patent convention that does not require reduction to practice. If you read the unabridged version of The Puppet Masters, the modern cell phone is described in the first chapter, and license plate readers appear in Methuselah’s Children.

I’m looking for a CPA, here in Vegas, since we are moving here. I like to get face to face.
Word got out last week and I’ve gotten over a couple dozen emails, texts, and VMs offering CPA services for the company. I just delete them. I’m not hiring a cold call CPA.

My CPA died this year too, and finding a replacement isn’t easy. W is doing ‘24 based on the previous 10 years filings, but I think it’s foolhardy. We usually have about an inch of paperwork, and it would be easy to miss something or to end up paying extra. She did ’23 and a simple choice was the difference between owing and not owing $4k.

https://bayourenaissanceman.blogspot.com/2025/03/the-structure-behind-lawfare-and.html
“James Howard Kunstler has written two articles that provide a great deal of background information about the struggle between the Trump administration and seemingly out-of-control federal judges.”
“In the first, titled “Judgepocalypse Now“, he explains the background.”
“If you want to know one paramount reason for institutional failure in our country, look to the evil enterprise that calls itself “Lawfare.” It originated as a blog launched on September 1, 2010, founded by three key figures: Benjamin Wittes, Jack Goldsmith, and Robert Chesney. Over time it evolved into an activist operation, The Lawfare Institute, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to (cough cough) “Hard National Security Choices,” and run under the shady umbrella of the Brookings Institution.”
This is fraud and the judges know better. The judges know that they are violating the USA Constitution and do not care.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/donald-trump-signs-executive-order-requiring-proof-of-citizenship-in-federal-elections/ar-AA1BEyt3
“WASHINGTON ‒ President Donald Trump signed a sweeping executive order Tuesday that looks to overhaul how elections are conducted across the nation, including establishing new voter identification requirements to prove U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections.”
“The order, which is expected to face legal challenges by voting rights groups, comes as Trump continues to push baseless claims of voter fraud to argue the 2020 election was stolen from him despite his victory in the 2024 election.”
“Non-U.S. citizens are already not allowed to vote in federal elections. But under the order, the national mail voter registration form will require that applicants provide either a U.S. passport, a REAL ID driver’s license or state-issued card compliant with REAL standards, or a “valid Federal or State government-issued photo identification.””
Everything else requires a government id, why not elections ?

$200,000 spent on Snap On tools since 2008–17 years
2025 -28 = 1997
He’s had his own shop for 28 years, has been in the biz for 40(?).
Now he’s having a paradigm shift because Ikon showed up Snap On in a simple test created by Snap On:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XHzDH5wZKmY
and questioning whether there might be better recommendations for young techs getting into the biz than to spend $700 on a set of wrenches.
That’s a good question, and he got the answer that my dad gave me 50 years ago.
But the question I have is what in the hell did he spend $200,000 dollars on after being in the biz 23 years and buying “lifetime tools”.
Looking at his shop I’d say part of the answer is “tool box crack”.
Looking at this video:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XHzDH5wZKmY
I know he buys tools for the shop, but a lot of those specialty tools are not Snap On, unless they are using totally different trade dress.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAo2p3FjUxQ
Wrench tester on Torque Test channel.
From watching some other guys, there are a LOT of single use tools out there, mostly because of the way shops pay book rate, which is never enough time, so the techs buy the single use tool that gets the job done in an hour, rather than some general tools that take longer.
That and the freaking automotive engineers don’t consider servicing the vehicle, so there are some jobs that require the special dealer only or tool truck only tool. It takes a couple of years for the generic copycat tool to appear.
I cite my attempt to change my own starter motor on the Expy as an example. Two of the three bolts are no problem, but the third takes a special tool, OR you can remove inner fender liners, motor shields, and some other parts as well. The guy on youtube figured out the exact combination of swivels and extensions to do it with ordinary sockets and wrenches but you still have to do it blind… or take ¼ of the front end apart.
And tool guys are tool whores.
n
Machinists are worse, they collect tooling by the bucket full and still never have the correct tap/slitting saw/boring bar….
