Damn, I have to get up at 5:45 a.m. to go and babysit in the morning, and I can't sleep.... ugh..! So, I thought I'd have 3 fingers of 1843 Kentucky Bourbon to see if that will relax me enough to go back to sleep...

My wife hates to go grocery shopping for her deadbeat brother, because he has a conniption fit if she buys the wrong thing. But he won't go to the store himself. He's like scared to go. So anyway, last week he wanted their deli 8 piece fried chicken. Well, they were out, so she bought him a rotisserie chicken. Well guess what, his chicken was raw. My wife told the deli and they said, "Yes we made a mistake and set the chicken to the wrong temp. We thought we pulled all of them after we realized what had happened. So, for all people to have gotten a raw chicken, the deadbeat has to yell and scream at my wife off it. Oh well, it's nice to be a close knit family... :)

My sister-in-law owns a Cherry Berry frozen yogurt store. They had a special last weekend, so we took the grand kids up there for some ice cream. They both selected, sour apple, sour lemon aid, and sour gummy worms for the toppings.... Kids are funny like that, and they loved it...

We still have a land line telephone. I know, get rid of it....! So since the primary elections have been going on, we have been getting a phone call every hour, and every 1/2 hour. We average 12 calls a day, starting at 8:30am till 10:00pm. I believe it's mostly the election polls that are calling. But it's never been this crazy before. I guess their polls can't seem to really figure out what's going on between Donald and Hillary...? I'm just hoping that Wiki Leaks will come up with some thing on Hillary before the election. I think this election is ready for a do over...! Remove all elected officials, and select new people by their drivers license like they select a jury. Hey, I think this bourbon is starting to kick in... :)

Ya know, I think you guys are the nicest assholes I've ever met.... I'm sorry I haven't been supporting the blog that often, but I'm sort of like a pin ball bouncing around from here and there....

We've almost had our new car for a year now. September I think...? And we've already put 1,500 miles on it. The gas mileage in town is terrible, but it got 34.5 to 39.5 mpg on the highway. And 189 hp seems to work real fine for passing and such. Oh, that low tire pressure light did come on. I did put some tire in the air, but my cheap ass tire pressure gauge is a piece of shit. But I finally got it to work, and the low pressure light went off... yeah..!!!

Well, I have to get back to bed so I can get back up in a few hours...! I'll smoke a Moontrance later today in honor of your guys..! Nite..!

Today is Saturday, Aug. 6, the 219th day of 2016. There are 147 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On Aug. 6, 1945, during World War II, the U.S. B-29 Superfortress Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb code-named "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, Japan, resulting in an estimated 140,000 deaths. (Three days later, the United States exploded a nuclear device over Nagasaki; five days after that, Imperial Japan surrendered.)
On this date:
In 1813, during the Venezuelan War of Independence, forces led by Simon Bolivar recaptured Caracas.
In 1825, Upper Peru became the autonomous republic of Bolivia.
In 1914, Austria-Hungary declared war against Russia and Serbia declared war against Germany.
In 1916, D.W. Griffith's silent film epic "Intolerance," which intercut four stories in four different settings and time periods, was sneak-previewed in Riverside, California.
In 1926, Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim the English Channel, arriving in Kingsdown, England, from France in 14 1/2 hours. Warner Bros. premiered its Vitaphone sound-on-disc movie system in New York with a showing of "Don Juan" featuring synchronized music and sound effects.
In 1930, New York State Supreme Court Justice Joseph Force Crater went missing after leaving a Manhattan restaurant; his disappearance remains a mystery.
In 1956, the DuMont television network went off the air after a decade of operations.
In 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Gherman Titov became the second man to orbit Earth as he flew aboard Vostok 2; his call sign, "Eagle," prompted his famous declaration: "I am Eagle!"
In 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act.
In 1978, Pope Paul VI died at Castel Gandolfo at age 80.
In 1986, William J. Schroeder (SHRAY'-dur) died at at Humana Hospital-Audubon in Louisville, Kentucky, after living 620 days with the Jarvik 7 artificial heart.
In 1991, the World Wide Web made its public debut as a means of accessing webpages over the Internet. TV newsman Harry Reasoner died in Norwalk, Connecticut, at age 68.
Ten years ago: Oil giant BP announced an indefinite shutdown of the biggest oilfield in the U.S., at Prudhoe Bay in Alaska, after finding a pipeline leak. Sherri Steinhauer shot an even-par 72 to win the Women's British Open for the third time, and the first since it became a major. Tiger Woods won his 50th PGA Tour title with a three-stroke victory over Jim Furyk in the Buick Open.
Five years ago: Insurgents shot down a U.S. military helicopter during fighting in eastern Afghanistan, killing 30 Americans, most of them belonging to the same elite Navy commando unit that had slain Osama bin Laden; seven Afghan commandos also died. Violence erupted in the north London district of Tottenham amid anger over the fatal police shooting two days earlier of Mark Duggan, a 29-year-old father of four; rioting and looting spread to other parts of the city and other English cities over the next several days, leaving five dead. Deion Sanders, Marshall Faulk, Shannon Sharpe, Richard Dent, Chris Hanburger, Les Richter and NFL Films founder Ed Sabol were inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
One year ago: The first Republican presidential debate aired on Fox News Channel; when the 10 candidates were asked whether any of them would not pledge to support the eventual GOP nominee, only Donald Trump raised his hand, saying, "I will not make the pledge at this time," angering Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, who accused Trump of "hedging his bets." Jon Stewart bade an emotional goodbye after 16 years as host of Comedy Central's "The Daily Show." ''Hamilton," the hip-hop flavored biography about Alexander Hamilton, the nation's first treasury secretary, opened on Broadway.

Since your wife isn't working, let her do the babysitting. Then you could drink more bourbon and get some sleep. Problem solved.

Well that was extremely entertaining. Good morning, fellas.

RIO DE JANEIRO – TMZ reported Friday that a group of Team USA men’s basketball players “accidentally” went to a famed brothel here.
Apparently, the group, which TMZ said included DeMarcus Cousins, DeMar DeRozan and DeAndre Jordan, thought they were just going to a regular spa and merely had a drink (the place plays music, welcomes only male customers and has a full bar). They then – and only then – figured out they probably shouldn’t be there.
“They realized it wasn’t the right place for them and immediately left,” a source told TMZ.

Boy oh boy, I killed the banter.

Guess FroggyDave still doesn't have his pipes back and had to take off Saturday as well....
Actually, already had the day off because the wife was supposed to have a work meeting today. She was excused from it, so I kept the day off to finish tidying up the house before the party tomorrow.
