Sleep cut short today, right as I was getting into it. Wife took off to Indy for the weekend so I gotta be up to get boy off the bus.


Boy's excited, he filled an ammo can with legos and put a tag in there that says "safe for dad day"

Time for some coffee, see if that helps.

Now that roof's fixed and while the wife's gone, I should replace the fallen and soggy drywall. Don't need to hear her complaining about the mess and just get it done. Already picked up the new insulation when it was on sale, shovelled a couple bags of the old stuff from the wet areas.

Don't feel like it today, maybe a tomorrow job. Should only be two sheets worth.

I packed up 2 garbage bags full of clothes I don't wear, some shoes I don't wear, and a few odds and ends and took them to Goodwill.

I sprayed 3 wasp nests under my eaves and got up on the roof to remove them... then I washed the bed linen and remade the bed.

I'm done. I need a beer.

Took the boy to get his free book it pizza from pizza hut. Never did like their pizza, but I ordered one for myself along with his freebie.

That stuff's awful. I think it's only gotten worse since the last time I had it

Not aware of anyone who’s forgotten 911. We must hang in different crowds.

As for Pearl Harbor day, it’s also my wife’s birthday.

Saudi killed 3 people on NAS Pensacola. He was there because we were training him to fkn fly. Some people have forgotten, IMO.

Not starting anything MACS. I just don’t make the same connection you do. 911 is not forgotten by many in my mind. But I get what you are saying. I worry Oklahoma City is forgotten. So I do get it.

"A day that shall live in infamy."

My folks took us to Honolulu when we were young. The Arizona memorial made a major impression on me, and I wasn't very old. 10 or 12 maybe. The solemnity of that site is staggering. There was a survivor there that day, they emptied the memorial and took him out by himself. One of the staff explained and apologized for the delay, but I don't think there was one person there that minded, but if there were they didn't voice it.

I learned a lot that day. I've learned a lot more over the years, that the whole debacle wasn't and isn't as cut and dried as it was presented. But history seldom is. Men make and write history, and men are fallible. I've been back there many times over the years. It always made a strong impression. A lot of good men lost.

Recent history? I definitely think that we need to step our screening game up. The events in Pensacola were not the first time this has happened, and the folks involved were from the same place. I don't believe in coincidence. ThumbDown

Foot caught a roofing nail yesterday. Didn't go too deep after passing through my boot. Walked around the house with a magnet and picked up about a dozen nails.

Out shopping with the boy, came outta the store and saw a nail in my tire. Went to tire shop, now get to spend an hour or two here to get it plugged. I'd do it myself but the tires are near new and have free repair/replace

we never officially considered Saudi Arabia anything but a friend, even in the immediate aftermath of 9/11!
We went after Saddam in Iraq instead...until eventually Bin Laden.

But I think other than those officials, the rest of us haven't ever forgotten 9/11.

It only takes 3 generations to go from a day we will never forget to a day we forget to remember.

At one point Remember the Maine was on everyone's lips. What ever happened to Edmund Muskie? Hopefully nothing fishy.

Biggest difference is mastercard is domestic, visa is international. So if you're buying CCs, need a visa.

I haven't found any of their nails. Couple nail flanges, but none of their nails.

All I'm finding are the old nails from when the roof was last replaced in 98. Steel flange steel nail. easy to get with the magnet.

I'm surprised I found so many. They were pretty meticulous with their cleanup. Raked the leaves out of the landscaping, multiple passes with magnet sweeper both days they were here, and spent an hour after they were done with the roof going over the perimeter by hand and magnet.
