The cable has four 24-hour, all-news channels, none of which ever seem to be giving the news.
Fox -- political propaganda.
MSNBC -- prisons full of guys with tattoos.
CNN HLN -- about some missing kid.
CNN --who knows?

The bookest comest soonest
The book is still on schedule to be out by mid-February. I corrected the galley proof today.
I am more than happy to send a free copy of the paperback to regular visitors.
I need your address (I have Stan's). I created this email address for that purpose. I will nuke the email account after the copies have been sent.

Following is the description from the back cover. Please note: The book is adult fiction. It contains strong language, graphic descriptions of violence, and mature sexual content. (I know, that doesn't sound like me at all.)

This is new...
Car in front of me today at McDonald's:
"I'll probably have the chicken McNuggets."
"The 4, 6, or ten piece McNuggets?"
"I'll probably have the 6 piece."
"Barbeque, Hot Mustard, or Sweet 'N Sour Sauce?"
"I'll probably have Barbeque."
This went on while she ordered for herself and three kids. It finally ended with a drink order:
"I'll probably have Iced Coffee."
"Regular, Carmel, Hazelnut, or Vanilla?"
"I'll probably have Regular."
"Medium or large?"
"I'll probably have large."
"Plain, sugar, Equal, or Splenda?"
"I'll probably have plain."
"I'll probably have the chicken McNuggets."

This brings new meaning to 'beauty pageant'
Every contestant in the Miss Navajo Nation contest must slaughter and skin a sheep.
It's held in New Mexico, we could all stay at Moni's house!

A guy way
One of the commodes has a leak.
A very small leak, between the tank and the basin.
I tightened the bolts, but you can only do that so much for fear of cracking the porcelain.
So I put a big floor fan next the commode and turned it on HIGH, which evaporates the water from the leak.
It's a guy solution to the problem.
The alternative is to remove all of the water from the tank, unbolt it, lift it off the base, removes all the seal and working parts, and reassemble.
I like the guy way.
