Now, for extra bonus points – which way is he headed ?

Catch Up
When I got back from my travels, I dug into the NAD files and emails I’ve received. A number of suggested posts got … misplaced, and have now been found. So many of the next several posts will be those suggested earlier … in one case, from 11 months ago.
Ooops.
Anyway, if I missed someone’s suggestion in the past, those posts should be coming up soon … starting later today. Let me know if I missed something else … this is an open site; if you submit or suggest something, with few exceptions (only 1 so far – with the author’s agreement), it will be posted.
Assassination
Muslim NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were seen laughing as the names of the honored dead were read aloud at the 9/11 memorial on Friday.
Zohran Mamdani and AOC giggled while victims’ families wept.
Something like this is going to be the trigger …

If I
had my way,
if it were
up to me,
I’d know
what to say
and how
to say it.
I’d know
what to feel
and when
to feel it.
Hell
Let’s avoid the argument of if Heaven and Hell even exist.
If one believes in the existence of Hell, one necessarily believes that God does not forgive all sins.

Tunesday: Snake Oil Willie Band – I Don’t Look Good Naked Anymore
A sample of some obscure – and maybe not obscure – tunes from my strange and off-the-wall collection.
Today’s selection: Snake Oil Willie Band – “I Don’t Look Good Naked Anymore” 2014
A New Jersey band. “We are seasoned, professional musicians with many years of dedication to our craft. We do our utmost to provide our audience with an enjoyable evening of recognizable music, well played, that is easy to dance to.“
The band has been around since 1995 but this was their first recording. They’re still active … this being Sept 8, they last played at Kymer’s Campground in Branchville, NJ last Saturday and play at the High Point Country Club on the 26th.
Betcha this song is their closing tune.
But, but, but … there must be deep meaning here.
“I Don’t Look Good Naked Anymore confronts the uncomfortable reality of physical decline and its impact on self-worth and intimate relationships. The narrator has let his body deteriorate through poor lifestyle choices, transforming from a capable, confident man into someone who hides from his own reflection.“
Whoo-ee!
Let’s Try A Different Topic
family once removed – aka, clearing out the photo file.
Mrs DT’s BIL was professional ballet dancer. This photo was taken in Turkey some years ago.
I understand he was quite good in his day.
That’s about all I have to say about him; I don’t speak Turkish, he doesn’t speak English.
We get along over a cold beer (Turkish beer: best left in the unopened can)
His daughter (my niece?) on the other hand speaks English quite well; had her over here one year while she was the equivalent of a high-school student and taught her the woodchuck song. She flew back to Turkey out of Dulles to begin the school year where she promptly got in trouble when her teacher insisted NYC was the US capital.
She grew up to be a fantastically beautiful woman …
Meat and Tater BBQ Fest and Car Show
Nice way to spend Labor Day weekend
“The smell of smoke and slow-cooked barbecue filled Julius Kleiner Park this weekend as the Meat and Tater BBQ Fest and Car Show returned to Meridian. The event was held Friday and Saturday at Julius Kleiner Park in Meridian, and organizers said more than 50 barbecue teams competed. Attendees could also check out the car show and spend the weekend sampling what’s billed as a celebration of Idaho barbecue.“
