Happy Caturday, Gerbil Nation!
Now with fewer cats!

Plaguie -- thanks for sharing dv8’s sonnet. It is truly special and I felt as if I was getting a small glimpse into the depth of love you two share.

Hi, Paddy -- happy Saturday, GN.

What Paddy, said, Miss Harper. I hope you don’t mind, but I bounced a bit through Dv8’s site -- I’d like to explore a bit if that isn’t an intrusion. Interesting stuff.

That’s why I included the link to his site, Sven. Welcome! You’ll find comments by Gentle Mac in there, too. It was a lot of fun playing very old people for that site.

Take that, Texas!

Governor Newsom Announces New “Double Mask” Facemask Guidelines

“We are encouraging people basically to double down on mask wearing, particularly in light of all of what I would argue is bad information coming from at least four states in this country,” added Newsom. “We will not be walking down their path. We’re mindful of your health and our future”

We really have to work through this next six to eight or nine weeks, the next 100 days

So is it 6 weeks? Or 8 weeks? Or 9 weeks? Or over 14 weeks (100 days)? He really doesn’t have a clue.

Your comment sounds like Harvey Corman. Cheers!

Won’t it be fun to watch and see who actually wears these double masks? And since folks seem to have such trouble just managing to wear one mask correctly, covering both their nose and mouth; it ought to be a riot watching them manage two of them!

As dear Fatwa would say, “Comedy Gold!!!”

I happened across this last night -- ten years ago and Breitbart predicted the effect of critical race theory and its origins that are slamming us today. Worth watching.

Whenever I drive past this liquor store on Topanga, I always wonder about the name -- it’s been there for a t least 20 years.

I’m doing a little of this and that, Miss Harper. I’m going to install a trailer wiring connector to Teh Younger’s vehicle so he can tow a trailer with all his worldly possessions to Florida. We’re trying to figure out a way to track said trailer in case someone absconds with it. There are devices you can buy that require monthly service contracts, but we’re seeing if we can make an old phone work instead.

Now, that sounds like an interesting project, Paddy’O.

Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Late Caturday greetin’s, GN!

Sorry I missed Harper and Jerry yesterday.

Lurved the pic of the harps, Plaguie! (I can’t imagine making a freakin’ guiro much less a real instrument.)

I couldn’t have made a harp, either, Fatwa. dv8 just wrote a computer program on the big old school computer that figured out the arc of the neck and position of the strings and he built it from there. It’s always been very humbling to watch him work something out.

OK, that right there: he wrote a program to…
Programming -- fine. I can do a little -- but a program to figure out the curvature of a harp and string locations??
Then, he built it. That’s a whole ‘nuther skill set.

…and yet I have no career and am eminently unemployable. Hence the endless cavalcade of BS jobs.

I don’t know about the “eminently unemployable” part. As for careers, I’ve had 3, possibly 4 or 5, depending on how you want to count them. I hope along the way that I’m where the Good Lord wants me to be, doing what He wants me to do.
