Wake n Bake, Nothing Better!

The Mrs still thinks she’s going on a cruise in May smh I told her that I doubted they would be going. She says that’s ok, we’ll go in another few months. I’m thinking I doubt it.

this was the last real moonshiner...there are no more, just pale imitations...he lived about ten miles from me and i bought it from him several times, he used to set up at the flea market, he had a wooden box he'd sit on that was full of pint and quart jars, he'd sell crap off the table for ten and twenty dollars more than it said, and you got a jar of shine with it...was as good as anything i've drunk out of a bonded bottle

I've been on a Popcorn kick lately. I've always had an interest in moonshine because my great grandfather was an infamous local moonshiner and both sides of my family are from Appalachia. Later I was in the bluegrass scene and knew a bunch of people who made it. I've been tempted to try a little kitchen still setup. I don't even drink, I just think it would be cool. I used the last jar that someone gave me to winterize some messed up shatter.

Also I've *never watched any of those tv shows, but I watched the Last Dam Run documentary a few years ago. I was rewatching it last night and heard a lady mention Asheville. So I looked up his town and didn't realize they were so close. I lived in Asheville during a couch surfing hippie stint in the early 2000s and have loved the area since.

* I did watch Appalachian Outlaws, which was ginseng instead of moonshine. That show was so over the top scripted that it was hilarious. The snakeskin dude was Scarfacing an Alejandro Sosa level hostile takeover during one of the season finales. He even set off a flaming moat around his house to secure the 'sang.

Our concierge is back from covid. I was a little worried about him, he's middle aged and a bit on the chubby side. I didn't like the cop wannabe that they hired.

What was he doing to be cop-like? "Hello ma'am, those drugs in your grocery bags? No? I'll get you one day..."

More how he presented himself. Bullet proof vest, batman utility belt with handcuffs and not very approachable... someone forgot to tell him he's working the door in a residential complex.

So you're saying he was simply guarding himself against your gaggle of raccoons?
*Can't stop giggling at the image of a cop trying to cuff a raccon >.<

He’s prepared to cuff and spank. He’s looking for love.

lol He's not really a doorman. You have to have a keyfob to get in the door.

I thought the wanna be cop /doorman union voted out the handcuffs and spankings last contract ? I was told by our doorwoman that “unless taking the stairs” the squat and cough method was now the required search for elevator access ?

Big storm headed to the northeast this way for the weekend they say, and it's starting with sub zero temps on Friday. That means I better get some groceries while the getting is good.

Finally getting an eye exam tomorrow after 2 years without, and I have cataracts. I'm seeing a new doctor after the old one "fired me" for not coming in during Covid...Most bizarre. The guy was an asshat anyways. Probably a good doctor, but not a good person. Things are looking dark for me lately...I'll come into a room and go to turn the light on, and it's already on, and I think my RX could use a tune up...New glasses will be coming!

Oh I heard from Lookah. No returns for any reason. Sleaazzzzzzy!!

I think they'll be rolling again by then. Many are still rolling. Omicron should die down before then...But of course, who knows if or when the next wave or strain will occur.

I'd say we got pretty lucky with Omnicron....Just think if it was as bad ort worse than Covid. I'm not minimizing it, just saying it could have been a whole lot worse...and still could be.

Not really damaged, but it looks used. The logo is worn off, and I really just thought it was a rip off for the price, so wanted to return it...and I fully expected to pay return shipping. And I just hate these sleazy little companies that are all about profits, and zero about the customer.
