Bean News for Tuesday, May 31:
Johnny Manziel found in obvious place after reportedly being missing
It's not quite "Amazing Grace," but Johnny Manziel has apparently been found after reportedly going missing.
And he was spotted in the likely place one would find Manziel: A nightclub in the wee hours of the morning.

Police in South Florida were called to a gruesome scene: a pair of alligators eating a human body in the Everglades on Monday night.
The Sun Sentinel reports that Davie Police Capt. Dale Engle says the body found Sunday in Southwest Ranches, about 20 miles west of Fort Lauderdale, appears to have been at the location for a long time. The body was first spotted by a pair of fishermen.
Engle says officers were able to scare the alligators away from the body but the two lingered as officers tried to recover the body. Officers armed with AR-15s stood guarded the recovery teams at the scene.
“We want to identify who the victim is and possibly figure out what happened to them and how did the end up here? Sgt. Pablo Castaneda of Davie Police asked. “Could it be homicide? Could it be suicide? Could it have involved a fisherman? We don’t know.”

I don't know what the deal is, looked like all the coffee equipment was still in place but for some reason it did not work........ We did fill the dumpster over the weekend though and much to my surprise once she got involved in it she did pretty good.

morning TR,
My youngest brother, his wife and one of his boys(the other is in some college
world series of baseball this week), are in
town, to see my Mom, we spent time, with them all on Sunday, and
I went back Monday with a bunch of cigars (half gurkhas), for him and the boys.
youngest likes mild , so there was a 5 pack of Beautys in the box.

that sounds encouraging. my wife would fill a dumpster with my paperwork and stuff in
a heartbeat. Now if I suggest we get rid of some of her China dolls, or candles, I would be sleeping
with the fishes.

Paperwork was a big issue, she takes care of the filing of all things important and we had a heavy duty legal size 4-drawer filing cabinet stuffed as tight as it could possibly be and then some full of files. I got her to start working on thinning it a year ago and a few months back she said she had it done. Saturday I opened it up and it was still about 75% full so I started looking through stuff and had a shit-fit about it. Holy crap one thing that stuck in my mind was the statements for Blue Cross insurance claims and payments all the way back to 2005 and another was probably 12" of files for our parents estates, both of which have been all completed and distributed for over 5 years and in the case of mine over 12 years. I pulled all the crap out piled it on the floor, got a plastic tub like my cigar tubs out and told here she could keep what would fit in there. Meanwhile I took that damn big filing cabinet out and put it in the dumpster. Done, she got what was really necessary into that tub with some room left over. It will forever be a never ending battle with her over all the junk.

Good morning, boys. Taking it easy today. Gonna try out the new grill a little later and then I have to work the concession stand for a few hours later this evening (kids, sheesh).

I wish. Parents have to "volunteer" at the concession stand for 4hours for each kid playing baseball. So I'll be in there with the warden the entire time. God help me.

I buy them, when they go on sale, even bought a drain cleaning machine, and a tool bench from them.

Nota Bene: As a form of convenience, I put my propane torch lighter and XiKar cutter, in my eight count herf-a-dor,
so they are always with me, I also keep a humidity stick(with the gel) in there, plus several cigars. I end up taking another lighter along, since they always seem to fail on me. well I hadn't recharged the stick, the crystals went back to being hard and noisy, when shaken. brought the herf-a-dor to my youngest brother, and gave him my next to newest lighter that still worked. explained how my pockets were full of lighters (there were 4 in the herf-a-dor), and proceeded to show him how they all would fail. Damned if every one of them lit, first time, with no problems. My brother said, keeping them in the humidity, probably was not that good for them. he got a lotus, and I tossed a CI logo'ed xikar impress to my son-in-law. still had two good ones in my pockets(Rockwell, and a Bugatti).

i insisted that we cancel landscaping service, over a year ago, bought a lawn mower.
was willing to pay my daughter $20 to mow the lawn. she complained, said I paid $28 to landscaper,
told her, they had their own mower & trimmer. they haven't been yelling at me to mow the lawn, they just
pay the landscaper, while I am at work. not from my pocket, so I haven't said boo!.

Had a lawn service for years but the old guy that operated it turned it over to his nephew and the quality went to chit fast. They about totally screwed up my grass in the front so I got rid of them and just went back to doing it myself. Looks a whole bunch better now too.

Yes, the sun came out around noon yesterday at my house and dried things up pretty quick.
But, it is very questionable if it will stay dry until I get home today.

The only parts of the weather report i believe are Sunrise and Sunset, and maybe high and low
tides, they get that stuff from a table. everything else they just make up/guess at.
