Durn tired tonite so gonna be uuik. Sorry tain't been round fer a bit but been awful busy and plain tuckered out at nite. I be back, tho'. Yuz kan be shore of dat.

Darn, Goofy, I think I just missed you. You take it easy and we'll keep the light on for you. Glad to see you're okay and just worn down a bit.

I think I'l echo and expand DB's thought, Goofy. The main thing is to stay safe. Take care of yourself.

Well, in two days it'll be the Mrs. birthday; then, for 15-days we'll be "the same age."

They always shoot off fireworks either the night of her birthday or the next day. Quite a celebration. :D

Happy Canada Day, peeps!

I ain't too up on Canada ... what's Canada Day anywho?

I is real sorry to our friends to da north.

Goofy ... What does Canada Day represent? Canada Day is observed in Canada in commemoration of the formation of the Dominion in 1867. on July 1, the anniversary of the day in 1867 when Canada became the first British colony to receive dominion status.

Today's my wife's birthday and for the next 15 days we'll be the same age. Then, I'll jump back in the lead. :)

(congratulatory head bobs) to Mrs. DB for surviving another year. Not everyone does that, you know.

And a separate post, because it's entirely different from the post I just made. There's a friend of mine who maintains a quote of the day file. Today's offer is certainly food for thought:

"If you're baffled at all these people refusing to wear masks, in 1865 they threw the doctor that recommended handwashing in an insane asylum and then beat him to death." -- Jesse Case (@jessecase), 2020-06-26 (referring to Ignaz Semmelweis (b. 1818-07-01, d. 1865-08-13), whose story is worth knowing), with a separate link to the referenced story:

^^^^ Interesting. Surprised I hadn't seen this before. Amazing the things we can learn here at Pixies. :D

Ennio Morricone has died!

Now, where will I get the theme and background music for my upcoming spaghetti western?

He'll live in our hearts as long as those movies exist anyway. He was truly a remarkable composer for theme music. May he rest in peace.

It is said that if, every day, you eat a live frog for breakfast, nothing worse will happen to you or the frog for the rest of the day.
This is true for the frog.
You, however, can still be eaten by the frog's giant, vengeful brother.
