I’m not much of a tea drinker, but a coworker recommended it so I thought I would expand my horizons. My first impressions is that It was pleasant, peaceful and didn’t have a bad taste or odor and it kind of made me feel warm and cozy. I wasn’t quite sure how long I should leave the tea bag in the cup, but I ended leaving it in the whole time I drank the cup down. This might be a pleasant addition to my daily or weekly ritual.
In the heart of the pier at Long Beach, California you will find the Queen Mary docked. This ship was in service from 1934 to 1967 as a British ocean liner. Present day it is used as a hotel.
Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers had quite the mustache during his performance at the 61st Grammy Awards. I couldn’t tell if he was going for a 1970’s porn actor look or perhaps he’s trying to honor Freddy Mercury either way the Chili Peppers are still rocking.
You can certainly spot a military family vehicle by the message being sent through the window decal.
Six more weeks of winter.
I’m not very much of a gambler, but each time I come to Las Vegas I place 1 bet on the roulette table. I put $50 down on black and $50 down on even and so far every time I placed this bet I have won.
Four old retired men are walking down a street in Yuma, Arizona. They turn a corner and see a sign that says, “Old Timers Bar – ALL drinks 10 cents.”
They look at each other and then go in, thinking this is too good to be true.
The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, “Come on in and let me pour one for you!
What’ll it be, gentlemen?”
There’s a fully stocked bar, so each of the men orders a martini.
In no time the bartender serves up four iced martinis shaken, not stirred and says, “That’s 10 cents each, please.”
The four guys stare at the bartender for a moment, then at each other. They can’t believe their good luck. They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis, and order another round.
Again, four excellent martinis are produced, with the bartender again saying,”That’s 40 cents, please.”
They pay the 40 cents, but their curiosity gets the better of them. They’ve each had two martinis and haven’t even spent a dollar yet.
Finally one of them says, “How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime apiece?”
“I’m a retired tailor from Phoenix ,” the bartender says, “and I always wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the Lottery Jackpot for $125 million and decided to open this place. Every drink costs a dime. Wine, liquor, beer it’s all the same.”
“Wow! That’s some story!” one of the men says.
As the four of them sip at their martinis, they can’t help noticing seven other people at the end of the bar who don’t have any drinks in front of them and haven’t ordered anything the whole time they’ve been there.
Nodding at the seven at the end of the bar, one of the men asks the Bartender, “What’s with them?”
The bartender says, “They’re retired people from Hawaii. They’re waiting for Happy Hour when drinks are half-price, plus they all have coupons…”
In Southern California between the I-8 and the I-10 highways there is a wind farm that are generating clean energy.
While fishing this bird was behind me waiting and watching. I caught a mackerel and it slipped out of my hand so I stepped out of the way and let the bird pick it up. Although the bird didn’t say anything I’m sure it appreciated a free and easy meal.
Halle Berry shows she’s still hot at the 2019 Golden Globe awards by wearing a classy red and black dress.
Bohemian Rhapsody seems to be a film that so many people like and think are a shoe in to win big. Rami Malek knocked that performance out of the park.
There is nothing like using a Golden Globe acceptance speech to use it as a platform to represent all snowflakes out there. The speech talked about not putting up walls, however Hollywood does exactly that to protect their precious awards ceremonies. He said we must resist at the ballot box and in our everyday lives. How about we start by resisting watching the crappy movies Hollywood has been putting out? The bottom line is you are an actor. You are not a politician. You are there for our entertainment. We don’t care about your thoughts on anything other than that. Shut up, don’t break your arm patting yourself on the back for doing your job, and get the hell off the stage you utter douchebag!
Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga were wonderful in the movie “A Star is Born.” They should certainly get a Golden Globe award for their performances.
Taylor Swift wore a beautiful dress during the 2019 Golden Globe awards, however she did not appear to be as much of a show stopper as Lady Gaga.
Kristen Bell is looking beautiful as she announces a golden globe winner. She shows that even hard working people from Michigan can achieve their dreams and make it big.
Jamie Lee Curtis looks bored with listening to this long acceptance speech with language that was bleeped out by Patricia Arquette.
Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco, and Jim Parsons announcing a Golden Globe winner. With their success from The Big Bang Theory, there is no wonder why the globes are so golden. It will certainly be a sad day when the Big Bang Theory comes to an end.
Lady Gaga’s dress was so long that it looked like the dress maker used an entire bedroom sheet set to make it.
With the caravan that migrated from Central America for being supposedly oppressed or fleeing corruption, but they managed to wave flags of their country and have camera crews document the entire journey, I believe it was either a George Soros or Democratic Party sponsored caravan. This political stunt has been in response to President Trump wanting better boarder security to protect American citizens by funding and building a boarder wall. In the mean time the United States customs and boarder security has been doing a superb job of keeping illegal immigrants out of the country. They have also been using non-lethal methods to keep from being attacked or injured. Keep fighting the good fight. Keep up the good work. Not everybody feels the same as the Democratic Party and crazy liberal America.

Flying out of the San Diego airport you may see the Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD) San Diego sign.
If you remember the days of searching for an outlet while on travel it is good to see airports are becoming more convenient. Now you can find charging outlets right at your seat.
A retired Marine sits around the house all day, so one day his wife says, “Ed, you could do something useful, like vacuum the house once a week.”
The guy gives it a moment’s thought and says, “Sure, why not? Show me to the vacuum.” Half an hour later, the guy comes into the kitchen to get some coffee.
His wife says, “I didn’t hear the vacuum running, I thought you were using it?”
Exasperated, Ed answers, ”The stupid thing is broken, it won’t start. We need to buy a new one.”
“Really,” she says. “Show me it worked fine the last time.” So he did…
Happiness is a pecan pie on Thanksgiving. Have a very happy Thanksgiving.
A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved grandson. He has his hands full with the child screaming for sweets, biscuits, and all sorts of things. The grandfather is saying in a controlled voice: “Easy, William, we won’t be long.” Another outburst and she hears the grandfather calmly say, “It’s okay William. Just a couple more minutes and we’ll be out of here. Hang in there.”
At the checkout the little horror is throwing items out of the cart. Grandfather says again in a controlled voice, “William, relax buddy, don’t get upset. We’ll be home in five minutes, stay cool William.”
Very impressed, the woman goes outside to where the grandfather is loading is groceries and the boy into the car. She says, “It’s none of my business, but you were amazing in there. I don’t know how you did it. That whole time you kept your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying that things would be okay. William is very lucky to have you as his grandfather.”
“Thanks,” says the grandfather, “but I am William, this little bastard’s name is Kevin.”
If you ever watch College Game day on ESPN try reading some of the signs in the background. Some of them are pretty hilarious like this one behind Desmond Howard that says, “SOMETIMES I DON’T WIPE.”
