Happy Tuesday! In between insults we'll occasionally discuss cigars.  Join in and perhaps learn something along the way. Warning: don't proceed if you have thin skin but don't be afraid to post either... And welcome aboard!

It's a close second to Mondays for me, but only because grocery shopping is on Monday, and that's a chore and a half.

I hear you about grocery shopping. And it doesn't end with the shopping part either. After you carry all the crap in, now you've got to play fridge tetris.

I'm the one who has to do all the shopping, I let the rest of them figure out putting it away. Lol

I have been trying to do my grocery shopping every two weeks lately. I am not so organized to have a routine but I can tell you that the refrigerator and pantry are showing signs that replenishment is in order. I'll probably go after work today.

Did I mention my refrigerator door is busted and you have to shimmy it just the right way in order to close it? Apparently, I'm the only one in the family who knows how to close it. Therefore, I spend a large part of my day listening to incessant beeping.

Man, that would drive me nuts. Sometimes, when the wife is sitting on the couch, she has a fan going on her, and it blows against the blinds, and one of them on the end will repeatedly bounce against the wall. Like ants in my brain.

That might work. I had a doctor back in the day who would've been happy to hook you up. But he threw himself off a bridge before he could be sent to jail, so that ship has sailed.

Today is Tuesday, Feb. 23, the 54th day of 2021.
There are 311 days left in the year.


Today’s Highlight in History:
On Feb. 23, 1836, the siege of the Alamo began in San Antonio, Texas.

On this date:
In 1861, President-elect Abraham Lincoln arrived secretly in Washington to take office, following word of a possible assassination plot in Baltimore.
In 1870, Mississippi was readmitted to the Union.
In 1903, President Theodore Roosevelt signed an agreement with Cuba to lease the area around Guantanamo Bay to the United States.

In 1942, the first shelling of the U.S. mainland during World War II occurred as a Japanese submarine fired on an oil refinery near Santa Barbara, California, causing little damage.
In 1945, during World War II, U.S. Marines on Iwo Jima captured Mount Suribachi, where they raised two American flags (the second flag-raising was captured in the iconic Associated Press photograph.)
In 1954, the first mass inoculation of schoolchildren against polio using the Salk vaccine began in Pittsburgh as some 5,000 students were vaccinated.

In 1965, film comedian Stan Laurel, 74, died in Santa Monica, California.
In 1981, an attempted coup began in Spain as 200 members of the Civil Guard invaded Parliament, taking lawmakers hostage. (However, the attempt collapsed 18 hours later.)
In 1995, the Dow Jones industrial average closed above the 4,000 mark for the first time, ending the day at 4,003.33.

In 1998, 42 people were killed, some 2,600 homes and businesses damaged or destroyed, by tornadoes in central Florida.
In 2007, a Mississippi grand jury refused to bring any new charges in the 1955 slaying of Emmett Till, the Black teenager who was beaten and shot after being accused of whistling at a white woman, declining to indict the woman, Carolyn Bryant Donham, for manslaughter.
In 2006, Japan’s Shizuka Arakawa (shih-ZOO’-kuh ah-rah-KAH’-wah) stunned favorites Sasha Cohen of the United States and Irina Slutskaya (sloot-SKY’-yah) of Russia to claim the ladies’ figure skating gold medal at the Turin Winter Olympics.

Ten years ago: In a major policy reversal, the Obama administration said it would no longer defend the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, a federal law banning recognition of same-sex marriage.


Five years ago: Donald Trump won the Nevada Republican caucuses; Marco Rubio finished second while Ted Cruz placed third. A 26-year-old gunman killed four family members and torched their house in Phoenix before being shot dead by authorities.


One year ago: Chinese President Xi Jinping defended the Communist Party’s response to the coronavirus as “timely and effective,” but warned that the epidemic was still “grim and complex.” Japan reported the third fatality from among those who’d been aboard a quarantined cruise ship. Iran raised its death toll to eight, the highest toll outside China; Italy reported 152 cases, the largest number outside of Asia, including three deaths. Italian authorities said they would shut down Venice’s famed Carnival events in a bid to stop the spread of the virus.
