Mornin’ Wee,
You mean like those ear “crab” folks that want to put their biting comments about anything good in you brain?
Miss Lucille always has some brain balm and good wishes to help stave those critters off. Good in case you somehow get nipped, too.
Time to make “crab cakes” for lunch. Thanks for the reminder.
Morning all.

Good mornin’, kids, and happy Tuesday! Technically, this is an espresso machine, but I had to post it because it’s from Prodotto di Stella in Italy. Made it 1950. Enjoy!

Good mornin’, Miss Wee! While I do wish to have many more mornings, they do seem to be a bit overrated without coffee.

Good afternoon, Texan! The panels on the body is an interesting touch. I’ll take a medium expresso, please.
FYI: Where Was The Espresso Invented? Venice, Italy back in the early 20th century. The drink was created by businessman Luigi Bezzera who was experimenting with coffee to see how he could make his brew faster.

The jury selection in Hunter’s gun case is about as interesting as was the jury in the recent trial for DJT. This one has a former Secret Service employee whose husband still works there and 4-5 others who have family histories involving drug use. What are the odds?

National Hug Your Cat Day – but only if it was the cat’s idea
National Clean Beauty Day
National Safe Day – promotes responsible gun ownership and storage
National Cognac Day – needs no explanation
National Cheese Day – might need to drop by the St. James Cheese Shop in NO for supplies
National Old Maids’ Day – this seems to have dropped out of the language

The following two photos sorta cover four of the days…responsible gun ownership (the gun safe could be under her chair seat), cat hugging, cheese and cognac….

Finally….
Did a bunch of old maid environmentalists invent National Clean Beauty Day? It’s supposedly “a way to encourage brands to develop clean and sustainable beauty products from the beginning of their life cycle to the end. At the same time, we are going to help educate consumers about seeking better product choices.”

Afternoon All. I will ask forgiveness for any typos this morning. My eyes are irritated for some reason and having a little trouble focusing. The wind is blowing like crazy and it is 50* outside. It rained all day off and on yesterday which was actually really nice. I am sure the grass loved it.
I’m seeing some ugly weather down south today. All of you in it stay safe.

I meant to get back to you earlier. I know what it is for your fingers and toes to get cold and then get chilled all over. I hate that. Yes, the space heater should help a little. My mother would always say, “Put on some clothes!” And, I have a quilt that I put across my legs when I sit down. That seems to help so much. I hope they get the heater fixed soon. In Florida, it was always the air conditioner that we worried about.

Judge Sends 75-year-old Pro-Lifer to Prison for Two Years; Mocks Her Faith
A federal judge openly mocked a 75-year-old grandmother’s faith in the courtroom during a sentencing hearing. Paulette Harlow faces two years in jail for praying at an abortion mill.

While of little solace to this Granny and her family, it’s another case of the libs overreaching and having no concept that anything will ever blow back in their faces. Pretty soon they will have thoroughly angered pretty much of every demographic of any size or substance. I’m not counting the weirdo tat/purple/pink hair and hat bunches because I don’t think there are enough of them to make much of a difference.
