    That’s a dangling dongle, not a dangling google.

    Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
    Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
    Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
    All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
    So there was only one thing that I could do
    Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long

    I'm stunned this mutual act of kindness wasn't the lead story on Fox and Friends, bumping the complaining about the mega-libtard event on Saturday night on the loser networks.

    Meanwhile the music in the background reminds me just how much I'm missing late Saturday afternoon dinner at the fancy Mexican restaurant in town.

    Now Cape Town can join the rest of the world in hating Sidney Crosby.

    Can I just hate Sidney Crosby for the sheer joy of hating Sidney Crosby? #TeamOvi8

    More anecdotal nonsense from Walker County... *

    Having spent the last two weeks trying to get no-contact lawn care, I'll say there are people who make a game of trying to get others to break SIP. A couple of obvious MAGAts scolded me via message for not coming to the door when they knocked.**

    One guy who would not take no for an answer informed me I was to meet him in my driveway so we could discuss my lawn and I could pay him with his square widget.***

    There was also the lawn guy who wanted me to come to his house and help him set up his garden because he saw the dirt stacked on the side drive and the plants in my window.**** Aaaand two other guys wanted to mow my back yard. When I told them no, they asked if they could go out back and look around anyway. No. Nonononononono!

    What is wrong with these people? This is turning me into short, cranky, female John Cleese.

    For what it's worth, I did hire someone to mow our yard. They were not the cheapest. They were the easiest to deal with and they do great work.

    *Yes, that's a Walking Dead reference.

    ** The note I didn't send: I told you at the outset there would be NO CONTACT. Those are not particularly big words nor are they obscure. What part of that did you not understand? Furthermore, while you stood at my front door and knocked and yelled for at least three minutes, I was talking to someone who was trying to cope with a makeshift morgue in sight of her front windows. Take your obviously syphilitic brain-damaged self and fuck off.

    ***What part of "NO" do you not understand? Also, you have this whole employer/employee thing backward. You do not order me around. Also, WtF is there to discuss? You look at my lawn, decide what you want to charge, let me know so I can decide if want to do business with you and then you mow and edge my lawn. How hard is that? Why does this require multiple messages demanding phone calls and a possible meeting to discuss my lawn?

    ****Yes, he was serious.

    I'd like that, but I simply cannot abide the #TeamOvi8 thing.

    The government of South Africa has made sales of alcohol illegal during that country’s coronavirus lockdown.

    They have adapted.

    No need to hate either of them

    This country would absolutely have had armed insurrections had they made booze illegal during lockdown.
