Hot dog stir-fry is legal, right?

I’m stunned. The #Scorpions have a new single “Rock Believer” out from their new forthcoming album by the same name. Can you believe Klaus Meine is 73? Sounds fantastic. Great song. www.youtube.com/watch
Putin’s nightmare is he has to play whack-a-mole with uprisings in one ‘Stan after another.
I don’t care if it’s 2022, I still hate vinyl house siding.
Repeat: New Rule: All flat surfaces must contain an advertisement.
Brilliant Marketing Idea #1: Pop up ads on the LED screen in your car! You can thank me later.
Git ‘er done file: Got my 3rd Covid vaccination shot today.
Somehow, somewhere, people have come to think that they are, individually, in charge of gov’t, what others say, what they do and what they are allowed to think. It’s like everyone has a Napoleon Complex.
Well darn. If Amazon had a Fire Tablet with 4G connectivity I would have bought it.
I just started book four of a detective/mystery series. The series seems to be spiraling downward into a soap opera with a mystery tacked on. Blech. I don’t care about romance, I don’t care about wedding plans, I don’t care about the sex. Just solve the murders.
Got my flu shot today.
I can remember when the cereal maker was “Kellog’s of Battle Creek.” not Kellog’s just one of many brands owned by some conglomerate.
So there is that.

Old Person’s Thoughts: Kids are back in school and the neighborhood is so quiet and tranquil, until late afternoon when the school bus trucks the kiddos back and dumps them off.
I wonder if the annual flu vaccination shots are available yet?
Sorry Walmart, I don’t use self-checkouts unless you are going to pay me to do the work. If I’m standing in your store trying to give you my money you would think you could be bothered to have an employee available to take it. It’s like you don’t care.
And my iPad is dying. Won’t let me connect to WiFi. Works on cell data. I don’t have time to fiddle with it anymore. Problems, screw it. NEXT!
It’s going to take years to work out our supply chain dependencies on China. That is, if American business and government really tries. Most “American” companies are now multi-nationals or owned by them and have no allegence to the US.
Americans, as a rule, are crap at taking care of what we have built. Be it a county court house to a school building to a bridge or a tunnel. We build stuff, neglect it, defer maintenence, and then wonder why it falls down 50 years later. Repair infrastructure.
It’s amazing how many businesses around here have big “Help Wanted” signs out.
All surfaces should be covered with either a corporate logo or an advertisement by Labor Day 2021.
All internet memes should be taxed. Non-commercial dog and kitty memes would be exempt.
I could be wrong, but the way I understand high speed rail works in Italy is the gov’t owns the tracks and the private sector runs the HSR trains as a lease. The operator sets HSR ticket prices based on demand so it could vary seasonally or maybe by time of day.
Hindsight is 20/20. I wish we had not sold off Conrail. We would then have had an expanded track network where Amtrak passenger trains had priority over freight. Maybe not the best passenger network but it would have been a start.
Solving passenger rail in the US is like trying to untangle the Gordian Knot. But first we need clear national policy from the Feds. Somebody has to set priorities so we can plan long term.
Tonight for supper: hot dogs with some sorta pasta salad on the side. Take that, Michelin Guide.
