Dragon Laffs

Good Morning Campers,

Well, what an interesting day it is!  Today is April first!  April fools day! Major League Baseball  Opening Day, Maundy Thursday, National Burrito Day, and Take Down Tobacco National Day of Action. 

Okay, I smoke cigars, so not much of a Take Down Tobacco sort of Dragon, I do like a good burrito … okay, let’s face it, even an okay burrito is still a burrito. 

Maundy Thursday commemorates the Last Supper on the Thursday before Easter.  (Maundy refers to the foot-washing Jesus provided the apostles prior to the Last Supper). 

Major League Baseball opening day is important to an awful lot of people … not necessarily THIS dragon, but for a lot of other people.

And April Fools Day…. probably be more about that later, I’m sure.  There have been an awful lot of really GREAT April Fools jokes and pranks through the years and we’ll try to visit some of them throughout this issue. 

But, you may have noticed a bit of a theme to start out this issue.  It may have been a bit subtle and difficult to pick up on.  There have been a few clues dropped here and there, maybe I have been a bit too subtle, so I’ll lay it all out here.

You guys remember I’ve been keeping track of the number of books I’ve been reading?  Well, I started … are you ready?  April first 2020!  So it has been exactly, to the day one year since I started counting books read!  It started out as a thing to do while I was teleworking and staying at home, but I have always been in love with reading.  I truly believe that it has been one of the things through my life that has guided me, kept me whole, and has allowed me to visit places, and spaces, times and futures, without ever leaving my own home.  I’ve learned things and know things and stretched my own mind and have kept the evil devil away called Alzheimer’s.

One of the greatest things a parent can do for a child is give them the gift of reading.  I was reading real books before I was even in kindergarten and stayed ahead of the curve all through school.  Reading at a 12th grade level before I ever left grammar school.  Voraciously swallowing up all the science fiction and fantasy I could find, but reading pretty much a bit of everything.  And it has served me well over the years.  My mother, bless her soul, started reading to me before I could talk.  I remember Sir Kevin of Devon being one of my very favorites, but there was also Harold with his wonderful purple crayon and many, many others. 

So yes, I am a HUGE believer in: 

But here it is, one year later.  And I’m sure you are all waiting on the edge of your seats wondering what the grand total is.  Well, here it is… the grand total, after one full year of tracking my books is …

Drum Roll Please …..

121

Okay, that may not seem like a lot to you guys.  But, if you think about it, that’s one book every three days. Every 3.0165 days to be exact.  And that’s not like I read a book in three days, that’s like I read a book every three days, over and over again for a whole year.  I’m actually quite proud of that number. 

And yes, I’m going to continue to keep track.

And now,

I wonder if a murderer has ever crossed my path, contemplated murdering me, and then thought, “nah”.

I don’t have a Bucket List, but my Fucket List is a mile long.

Just burned 2000 calories.

That’s the last time I leave brownies in the oven while I nap.

Me and my mates getting ready to go out for the evening.

How’s the diet going?

Not good.  I had eggs for breakfast.

Scrambled?

Cadbury.

I just want to be remembered for two things:

That I made people’s lives easier, and that I always made them laugh.

Oh, and if you all could forget my drunk shenanigans, I’d appreciate it.

Someone sent me an email about using vodka for cleaning around the house … It worked!  The more vodka I drank, the cleaner the house looked!

Okay campers, listen up.  This is important and something I had never heard of before.  Have any of you guys ever heard of the International Sign for Help Me?  It looks like this:

Or in action it looks like this:

The website seems to talk about being able to signal into a camera for a face time call or something and communicate your need without saying anything or giving anything away, but there are a bunch of other uses as this video suggests.  Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8Vq_yDGSco

I truly think this is something that we need to get out there as much as possible.  Spread it far and wide.  The more people that know, the more that can be helped and possibly saved. 

And if you see something, say something.  You don’t have to be the hero, call 911 or whatever it is where you live and let the authorities handle it.  Don’t be the “I don’t want to get involved” person.  Think if it was your daughter, sister, son, brother, … or if it was YOU waiting for someone to DO SOMETHING.

Go back and watch the video again.

I figured it was something like that.

“I’ve got to find a new apartment.  The neighbors here are so nosey!”

Happy Valentine’s Day?

I’m gonna have to try that one with Mrs. Dragon.

Don’t expect me to stop if you’re broken down on the side of the road.  You were offered an extended car warranty several times.

Um… I have questions.

Sarcasm is a body’s natural defense against stupidity.

There will always be someone who can’t see your worth.

Don’t let it be you.

Okay folks … it’s time!  And there’s a bunch of them.  Lots of stuff to share today.  Obviously a lot of you are getting pissed off about what is going on and it’s showing in what you are sharing.  And I have something special to share with you at the end.  So, without further ado, let’s get into our …

Hey, it worked for Hillary!

I was once willing to give my life for what I believed this country stood for. 

Today, I’d give my life to protect my family from what this country has become.

And what an extraordinarily sad statement that is!

Kinda Odd how Liberals think that every Post, Tweet, and Meme needs to be fact checked for truth and honesty but …

Not the Ballot Box.

LOL!  Oh, this guy cracks me up!

Get ahold of the democrats.  They’ll take care of you.

Latest Fair Golf Rules:

President Biden, by suggestion of KH,  has recently appointed a Golf Czar and major rule changes in the game of golf will become effective September 1, 2021. This is only a preview as the complete rule book (expect 2000 pages) is being rewritten as we speak .. Here are a few of the changes.

Golfers with handicaps:

– below 10 will have their green fees increased by 35%.

– between 11 and 18 will see no increase in green fees.

– above 18 will get a $20 check each time they play ..

The term “gimmie” will be changed to “entitlement” and will be used as follows:

– handicaps below 10, no entitlements.

  – handicaps from 11 to 17, entitlements for putter length putts ..

– handicaps above 18, if your ball is on green, no need to putt, just pick it up ..

These entitlements are intended to bring about fairness and, most importantly, equality in scoring.

In addition, a Player will be limited to a maximum of one birdie or six pars in any given 18-hole round. Any excess must be given to those fellow players who have not yet scored a birdie or par. Only after all players have received a birdie or par from the player actually making the birdie or par, can that player begin to count his pars and birdies again.

The current USGA handicap system will be used for the above purposes, but the term “net score” will be available only for scoring those players with handicaps of 18 and above.  This is intended to “re-distribute” the success of winning by making sure that in every competition, the above 18 handicap players will post only “net score” against every other player’s “gross score”.

These new Rules are intended to CHANGE the game of golf.  Golf must be about Fairness. It should have nothing to do with ability, hard work, practice, and responsibility. This is “The Right Thing to do.”

The new rules eliminate the discriminatory word handicap and replace it with CTMPD (circumstances that make progress difficult).

And now, as promised, something special from one of our own campers.

I had a lot of trouble making this and this about the best I could do, I hope it is readable.

I wrote this a few years ago when Obama’s EPA tried to claim ownership of every drop of water in the country, (remember that). I tried to write it from my Daughter’s perspective (that’s her in the picture) I think it is taking on the same meaning today.

Absolutely wonderful!  Thank you for sharing.

And now, to add insult to injury!!!!!

This is absolutely infuriating to me!  I can’t believe that even our beloved Sesame Street has caved to this bullshit!  You can read the rest of the article here: https://babylonbee.com/news/sesame-street-introduces-todd-a-white-male-muppet-that-is-blamed-for-everything

But I can’t express to you how much this pisses me off!  I am so ready to read somebody the riot act if I just knew who it was I was supposed to tell off! 

Oh, and I have to remind you … remember what day it is.

You think you know stress?  When I grew up, if you missed a TV show you just missed it.  Forever!

I’m so old, I don’t even buy green bananas

I’m not sick, I’m twisted.  Sick makes it sound like there’s a cure.

And that my friends is it for today.  I didn’t have as much fun with April Fools Day as I wanted.  Ran out of time, as I usually do, but there it is.  Hope you enjoyed my offerings just the same.  May you have a wonderful day.

Cheers!

Good Morning Campers,

Okay, so here’s a quiz for you … what does the header above mean?  I’ll give you a few minutes to think about it.  In the mean time, we’ll talk about a few other things. 

It’s been a nice weekend.  First weekend I’ve had off in a LONG time.  Finally got a chance to relax a little, kick back.  Read.  Watched some TV with Mrs. Dragon.  Saw some friends.

I have gotten some nice comments lately that I’d like to share with you guys since the first one relates to one of you guys.

Well said, Jonathon J.

I agree with you 100% Alan … Jonathon did a great job.

and another one from Alan …

Dragon Laffs #1876

Sir, totally agree with your opening rant. Exactly the same is happening with illegals in England. It is criminal.

Definitely (one of) my hot buttons right now.  It is pissing me off to no end.  It IS criminal.  We are treating foreign criminals better than we are treating American citizens. 

Okay, so … I’ve given you guys some time to think about it.  Anybody able to figure out what today’s header means?  Anyone?

Okay, so it’s silly.  Mrs. Dragon and I sat down and made out a shopping list and I was bored and that’s everything that’s on the list.  Now, that’s not everything we will buy, I’m sure, it never is, but that’s everything that’s on the list.  LOL!  Yup, pure boredom and a Photoshop type program….  That’s all it takes.

And speaking of Photoshop …. let’s start off today with a cool photo essay that was sent in by Steve H.  So, …

James Fridman is a noted photoshop expert and is known for people asking him to photoshop their photos

These are some of the requests he received

That was great, unexpected fun!  Thanks Steve!

The REAL story of Little Red Riding Hood, she was bringing a dragon home to visit Grandma when she was brutally attacked by a left leaning, democrat wolf who wanted Red to pay for his student loans, give him food, and a $20 minimum wage that he had no experience to support.  When she said no, he ate his Granny.  The dragon then ate the wolf.

So, Lynn sent this one to me…the Subject was Bunny Porn and the subtitle was …

Typical Man:

I think I would be insulted … except for the truth of the whole matter. 

Are we sure the poor guy didn’t have a heart attack?

Mother Nature caught mid jump in last year’s trampoline competition.  She took second place.  She’s been pissed off at me ever since.

Me:  This show is boring.

Boss:  Again, this is a Zoom conference.

Do you ever go out, and while you’re out, you think, “This is exactly why I don’t go out”?

Okay, if we’re going to have one-way grocery aisles, then I’m going to need a passing lane.

That’s a little over reactive, don’t you think?

And a million phobic people around the world scream, “NO!”

I haven’t tried yoga, but I have tried bending over to pick up my keys, so I’m pretty sure I’d hate yoga.

And therein lies the problem with most people.

Husband:  One good thing about this lockdown is that we can’t go out and spend money.

Wife:  [Clicks ‘Add to Cart’]

Brain cells, hair cells and skin cells – they all die constantly, but freaking fat cells seem to have eternal life …

Yesterday:  Fixed hair and makeup – saw no one.

Today:  Looked like Jack Nicholson from The Shining – saw all the people I know.  All of them.

Dear Plexiglass, thank you for protecting me from the cashier who just touched everything I’ll be taking home.

I have shared this before … several times in fact, but Ted sent it to me again and again, I will take the opportunity to share it again.  It’s fun and serious at the same time.  Thank you Ted for bringing it back around.  Now, listen up you civilians …

RULES FOR KICK’N ASS

Rules for the Non-Military (Make sure you read #13 twice) Dear Civilians, we know that the current state of affairs in our great nation has many civilians up in arms and excited to join the military.

For those of you who can’t join, you can still lend a hand. Here are a few of the areas where we would like your assistance:

1. The next time you see any adults talking (or wearing a hat) during the playing of the National Anthem – kick their ass.

2. When you witness, firsthand, someone burning the American Flag in protest – kick their ass.

3. Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the highest amount of respect to all veterans.  If you see anyone doing otherwise, quietly pull them aside and explain how these veterans fought for the very freedom they bask in every second.  Enlighten them on the many sacrifices these veterans made to make this Nation great.  Then hold them down while a disabled veteran kicks their ass.

4. If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you were. Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDU’s) or Jungle Fatigues, telling others that you used to be ‘Special Forces’.  Collecting GI Joe memorabilia might have been okay when you were seven years old, but now it will only make you look stupid and get your ass kicked.  This one pisses an awful lot of us off. 

5. Next time you come across an Air Force member, do not ask them, ‘Do you fly a jet?’  Not everyone in the Air Force is a pilot such ignorance deserves an ass kicking (children are exempt).

6. If you witness someone calling the Coast Guard ‘non-military’, inform them of their mistake – and kick their ass.

7. Next time Old Glory (the US flag) prances by during a parade, get on your damn feet and pay homage to her by placing your hand over your heart.  This includes arrogant politicians who think someone may be offended.  Quietly thank the military member or veteran lucky enough to be carrying her-of course, failure to do either of those could earn you a severe ass-kicking.

8. ‘Your mama wears combat boots’ never made sense to me – stop saying it! If she did, she would most likely be a vet and therefore would kick your ass!

9. ‘Flyboy’ (Air Force), ‘Jarhead’ (Marines), ‘Grunt’ (Army), ‘Squid'(Navy), ‘Puddle Jumpers’ (Coast Guard), Bubblehead (Sub sailor), etc., are terms of endearment we use describing each other.  Unless you are a service member or vet, you have not earned the right to use them. Using them could get your ass kicked.

10. Last, but not least, whether or not you become a member of the military, support our troops and their families.  Every Thanksgiving and religious holiday that you enjoy with family and friends, please remember that there are literally thousands of soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen far from home wishing they could be with their families.  Thank God for our military and the sacrifices they make every day.  Without them, our country would get its ass kicked.

11. It is the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It’s the Veteran, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech. It’s the Veteran, not the community organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate. It’s the Military who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag.

Oh, AND ONE MORE:

12. If you ever see anyone singing the national anthem in Spanish –KICK THEIR ASS.

13. ONE LAST THING: If you got this email and didn’t pass it on -guess what – you deserve to get your ass kicked!

I sent this to you, not because I didn’t want to get my ass kicked, BUT,

BECAUSE YOU ARE A VERY, VERY SPECIAL PERSON AND I KNOW YOU WILL NOT BE OFFENDED AND ARE PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN AND WILL SHARE THIS WITH OTHERS.

THANK YOU

WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE,”ONLY” – BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE!

and if we aren’t very careful, we are going to lose those freedoms we hold so dear because those people we allowed to be elected are going to take them away from us.

Which leads us nicely to this part …

Bozo Criminal for today comes from the International File. From London, England comes the story of Bozo Justin Clark who broke into David Withers car and stole his pager. He was caught when Mr. Withers dialed his pager number and left a message saying he’d won 500 pounds in a church drawing with instructions on how to pick up the cash. Of course, the bozo showed up at the appointed place and time whereupon he was arrested.

Vaccine Alert For Seniors…

A friend had his 2nd dose of the vaccine at the vaccination center, after which he began to have blurred vision on the way home.

When he got home, he called the vaccination centre for advice and to ask if he should go see a doctor, or be hospitalized.

He was told NOT to go to a doctor or a hospital, but just return to the vaccination center immediately and pick up his glasses.

And that, dear friends, is that…at least for today.  I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed putting it together.  Until next time… remain happy, healthy, and laughter filled.

Good Morning Campers,

Okay, so at least I’m not starting with a rant today.  I don’t know what I am starting with, but it’s definitely not a rant.  Well, at least it’s not a planned rant.  Right  now, at this particular second in time, I have absolutely nothing in mind to start this issue with. 

It has been an absolute shit week  A shit week amongst shit weeks.  So … in the indelible words of the Dragon Laffs motto: We are now going to Battle the World’s Bull Shit with Laughter!

Nearly 100% of all deaths occur on Earth, making it the deadliest planet in our Solar System.

I hate when people confuse education with intelligence.  You can have a degree and still be an idiot.

Who decided that skeletons are scary because honestly I’d be more scared if the muscular system suddenly walked into my room.

$3.00 for coat check
$4.00 an hour for parking

I’m just going to stop inviting them to my house.

I made a huge to do list today.

I just can’t figure out who’s going to do it.

There should be a calorie refund for things that didn’t taste as good as you expected.

Thanks to Bozo News Hawk Miller Duncan who passes along this story. From Columbia, South Carolina comes the story of bozo Reggie Johnson who ran an auto chop shop, selling various parts off of stolen cars. Our bozo was caught because he would grind off vehicle identification numbers from engine parts and replace them with his own social security number.

Our own special reporter Lynn has sent us this … hot off the presses:

 

Exclusive: We Have Obtained A Copy Of Joe Biden’s Day Planner

BabylonBee.com

 

Joe Biden’s day planner was left on a table at a Washington DC Denny’s this week. Before returning to the White House, our staff was able to take pictures of the contents of Biden’s rigorous schedule. It is truly amazing that a man of Biden’s age has enough vim and vigor to accomplish so much every day. 

 

“This is my Girl Scout War-craft Achievement Medal.  Why?  You want to make something of it?”

And that’s exactly the way it should be

The sooner everyone truly understands this next one, the better off we all will be:

Migrants?  MIGRANTS?!  You mean the illegal fucking aliens that are being cuddled and taken care of by the self-centered democrats while our own homeless Americans (a good percentage of whom are veterans) are ignored and left hungry on the streets?  THOSE MIGRANTS?!?

Yeah, so okay, I guess I did find something to get pissed off about … again.

And so it is with another issue of Dragon Laffs … we’re mean, but they are asking us to leave.  Time to go, head out, beat feet, and all those other clichés that I can’t think of right now.

Until we meet again my friends, be well, and stay laughing.

Good Morning Campers,

Well, it’s supposed to be Spring Time…we’ll have to see how it all works out.  So far this week it’s been really nice, but I have to get this off my chest before I go any further…I’m really, really pissed off.  So, I’m going to start today’s issue off with a

Right now, the Biden administration is putting illegal aliens in fucking hotel rooms to the tune of over $300 a night!  Why are they spending our money on people who are here illegally when we have some many homeless Americans?  There are over 40,000 homeless Veterans, men and women who have served our country, sworn to give up their lives for this country, who have to sleep outside or in a fucking box at night, who aren’t given the same treatment as people who have stolen their way into this country illegally!  And do you want to know why?  Because the chicken-shit politicians know that the Vets probably won’t vote for them and the illegals will!  Let’s not do the right thing!  Let’s not take care of the people who swore an oath to take care of us!  Let’s do the thing that is self centered, greedy, and self-absorbed, because everyone knows that the politicians are the only ones that matter!  You bloviating pigs!

I’m so sick and tired of this shit.  There are so many things they could be doing with our money that is good and wholesome and right and instead they are lining their pockets, sending our money overseas and doing what they can to be re-elected.  All of this shit would be solved if we had term limits.  If they couldn’t be re-elected then MAYBE they might spend a little of their time doing what the hell they are SUPPOSED to be doing.  Then again, probably not.  They’d just be stealing our money faster since they wouldn’t have as much time.

THIS IS JUST WRONG PEOPLE!!!!  Why are we not all up in arms over this?  Our border should be CLOSED!  I’m not saying we shouldn’t let in people.  But they need to do it the right way!  We’ve always had a means to welcome people into our country.  Learn the friggin’ language, do it the right way.  Become a contributing citizen.  I have enough trouble taking care of my family; I don’t need to take care of another one!  Neither do any of you.  Why aren’t we pissed off about this!  I can’t afford to put my family in a $300 a night hotel! 

HOW DARE THEY SPEND OUR MONEY THIS WAY!  THEY WORK FOR US!  THEY NEED TO BE FIRED!  THIS IS PURE BULLSHIT!

Okay, I gotta go on to the laughter before I have a fucking aneurism.  This has got to stop.

Thanks to Pete for his advice on how you defeat racism:

Makes perfect sense to me.  I don’t give a damn what you look like on the outside.  I do care a great deal about what you are like on the inside. 

Here’s something to make you feel good … especially about our Veterans.

“This guy named John has been coming into my work for years. I told him I was going to Vietnam next week with my girlfriend. He told me he was over there during the fall of Saigon and helped orphan babies get on evacuation planes and helicopters as a Marine. I told him I was one of those babies. He looked at me, his eyes started to well up and said he might have held me in his arms during the rescue mission (Operation Babylift). We talked for a while and I thanked him dearly for his service and kindness. In the end, he told me he’ll sleep better tonight knowing that a small innocent baby has now grown up with a better life in America. What an amazing man you are John. And thank you again for your service! I’m no longer an orphan.” — Aron Moxley

“He wants a divorce?  I’ll give him a divorce!”

I talked with a homeless man this morning and asked him how he ended up this way.

He said, “Up until last week, I still had it all.

I had plenty to eat, my clothes were washed and pressed, I had a roof over my head, I had HDTV and Internet, and I went to the gym, the pool, and the library.

I was working on my MBA on-line. I had no bills and no debt.  I even had full medical benefits coverage.

I felt sorry for him, so I asked, “What happened? Drugs? Alcohol? Divorce?”

“Oh no, nothing like that,” he said. “Because of Coronavirus, I was unexpectedly paroled.”

Okay you guys really got pissed off these last couple of days and sent me a crap ton of political cartoons and memes.  And I’m going to finish off today’s issue with as many of them as will fit. 

Trump took down ISIS.

Biden took down Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head.

It’s like America’s amazing dad is leaving us and Mom’s new perverted boyfriend just pulled up in his Trans-Am.

And it’s working like a charm.

Yeah, cause that’s important

Hasbro is making a “Kamala Harris” Potato Head Doll.  They are calling it, “IDAHO”.

When corrupt politicians start going to jail, we can start trusting the government again.

That would pretty much clear out Washington, D.C.

Hey!  Here’s an idea for you:  Instead of doubling the minimum wage and forgiving loans to irresponsible students, how about doubling Social Security for those who ALREADY worked their asses off and have been responsible for 50 years.

Call it Senior Earned Income

Republicans and Democrats are nothing more than a pair of unfit parents in a custody battle over America.

They’re not hurting each other near as much as they’re hurting this country.

I’m sick of hearing “UNDOCUMENTED”.  The word is “ILLEGAL”.  Let’s all say it together:

Amen!  And you people who are trying to take our guns better beware!  How long would that fucker in Colorado have lasted if some of those people in the grocery store had been armed?

They are hiring again at the Coca-Cola company.

And that my friends is that for today.  I hope you all found something to laugh at or something to get pissed off at. 

Either one.

Love and happiness to you all.

Good Morning Campers,

So, I spent the weekend teaching … granted, it’s the best part of my job, and I love it dearly, but man … some time off would be welcome.  Teaching my beloved G.I.s how to stay alive in crappy environments is a great life’s work, it truly is, but a dragon needs some down time, too. 

I NEED A VIRGIN TO SNACK ON!  Or at least a nice village to burn.  You know, dragony things.  Things that us mythological creatures like to do on the weekends with our mates.  It’s not just throwing darts in the pub.  I’ve a reputation to keep up, haven’t I?  The local villagers tend to get attitudes if I don’t show up every once in a while and demand the occasional virginal sacrifice and burn down a hut or three.  I need to fly over the fields and scare the herds; leave scorch marks on the earth that can’t be explained any other way and lord knows I’ve been ignoring my horde of gold lately that’s for damn sure.  But yeah, definitely a virgin to snack on.

Okay, while I go look for volunteers, you guys go ahead and start laughing a bit.

I’d like to start out with an essay written by a dear friend of mine.  A fellow dispatcher.  This if from Jonathon J.

Listen up Buttercups! As someone who actually grew up watching PePe LePew (and all those “BAD” Saturday morning cartoons), I never saw Pepe as a rapist or promoting rapist culture. HELL I didn’t even know what a rapist was. I WAS A CHILD!

Let me impart my CHILDHOOD thoughts:

The only reason I ever thought the cat tried to get away from Pepe was because she was, in fact, A CAT, and he was a SKUNK. (For those of you who are biologically/scientifically challenged… Skunks and Cats ARE completely different animals – skunks also smell very bad).

I distinctly remember watching and thinking:

If Pepe catches up with her, she’s going to need a bath.

That’s it.

DEAR CANCEL CULTURE:

STOP READING MORE INTO OUR CHILDHOOD CARTOONS, BREAKFAST FOOD ICONS, VEHICLE NAMES, and everything else. No one became a rapist, racist, murderer, animal abuser, or dropper of anvils from watching our vintage Saturday morning cartoons while eating Aunt Jemima pancakes. You are, IN FACT, idiots, looking for attention due to the lack of parental fortitude in YOUR own lives.

You are walking, talking, “grown” infants. Screaming when you don’t get your way resulting in showing the world how truly absurd you are.

How about WE THE PEOPLE cancel YOU because WE are offended by your feckless, pansy ass, stupidity!

Well said brother!  Bravo!  Thank you very much for sending this to me.  This definitely falls into the category of “damn!  Wish I had said that!  Nicely done.

And a great way to get the ball rolling today.

Has anybody ever actually gotten salmonella from eating raw cookie dough or are people jus trying to stop me from living my life?

Batman, old school

It seems as though Lynn’s been busy.  She writes and says:

This morning I went to sign my dogs up for welfare

At first the lady said, “Dogs are not eligible to draw welfare.”

So I explained to her that my dogs are mixed in color, unemployed, lazy,
can’t speak English and have no clue who their daddies are.

They expect me to feed them, provide them with housing and medical care.

So she looked in her policy book to see what it takes to qualify.
My dogs get their first checks Friday.
She also put their names on the Democrat voter registry.

Is this a great country or what!

Gee, it’s like they all had a right way to go or something…

We shouldn’t call it the “White House” anymore because that’s racist.

Let’s call it the “Nut House”

And actually, that’s still the wrong festive leaf, the shamrock is a 3 leaf clover, not the 4 leaf variety that everyone seems to think it is.  It is celebrated because the three leaves are supp0sed to signify the Holy Trinity of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, as my VERY IRISH Mrs. Dragon will so aptly point out to ye!  This is also a reason that we had a bit of a week last week.  St. Patrick’s Day is a bit of a special day in the Irish households and this is the first one without both her mom and her dad.  So, we let it go by with very little fanfare with the expectation that next year will be better.  Slainte mhath!

How come “you’re a peach” is a compliment, but “you’re bananas” is an insult?  Why are we allowing fruit discrimination to tear society apart?

Because it’s adorable, that’s why!

People need to start appreciating the effort I put in to not being a serial killer.

What a culture we live in.

We are swimming in an ocean of information and drowning in ignorance.

Gas pumps should show porn clips so you can see someone else getting fucked while you are.   Thanks Biden

Wow.  I really need one of those signs for around here.

“I guess you didn’t know it, but I’m a fiddle player too
and if you care to take a dare, I’ll make a bet with you …”

Kind of a classic

Tip For Newlyweds:  Send a wedding invite to every billionaire whose address you can find because it’s a 50/50 chance their assistants just send you a perfunctory gift without ever wondering who the hell you are.

Sexual education class in school should just be listening to a baby cry for five hours straight while watching the same cartoon over and over again on repeat.

When I was dispatching for the State Police and again when I was a desk Sergeant working on the base as a civilian police officer, we would routinely get calls about the military aircraft dropping flares at night over the range way to the north of us.  The people would see these bright colored lights falling from the sky and swear they were seeing UFOs.  Happened all the time.  Some of the other calls I got when I was both dispatching for the State Police and working as a base cop would fill a book.

 

This story comes to us from Stephanie … it’s adorable!

My 8 yr old granddaughter was riding between her grandpa & I in the truck, when she noticed a mole under my chin. She randomly asked me, “Nannie, are you a witch? You have a wart under your chin.” We giggled as I explained to her it wasn’t a wart, but it was a mole. Then she asked me if frogs can really give you warts. I told her that it’s  not true, it was an old wives tale. She thought about that a few seconds, then asked me, “Nannie, have you ever kissed a frog?” I decided to play her little game & teased her by saying, “Yes…I did… once.” Her eyes got big & she said, “Really??? What happened?” I gave a little wink & giggle to my husband & replied, “When I kissed the frog, I got your Poppy!” She looked at her grandpa, then back at me, then back at her grandpa, then she finally looked back at me & said, “Nannie… it must have been a really old frog !” 

 

 

Is nobody else getting this bullshit?

If someone climbed the fence into your backyard, broke into your home, expected you to feed them, house them, and freely use all of the things you worked so hard for, would you be okay with that?

Welcome to illegal immigration and what the democrats are shoving down our collective throats!!

There needs to be a rule in there about what happens when they lie to us … like they get ridden out of town on a rail or tarred and feathered or something fun like that.  Because I don’t know about you, but I’m sick and fucking tired of being lied to by the people who are supposed to be representing us, the people that we hired to do a job for us, the people who are our employees!  How dare they!  They work for us!  We don’t fucking work for them!

A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat, and was very much in favor of the redistribution of wealth.

She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his.

One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the addition of more government welfare programs. The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school.

Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn’t even have time for a boyfriend, and didn’t really have many college friends because she spent all her time studying.

Her father listened and then asked, “How is your friend Audrey doing?” She replied, “Audrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy classes, she never studies, and she barely has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus; college for her is a blast. She’s always invited to all the parties, and lots of times she doesn’t even show up for classes because she’s too hung over.”

Her wise father asked his daughter, “Why don’t you go to the Dean’s office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA.”

The daughter, visibly shocked by her father’s suggestion, angrily fired back, “That wouldn’t be fair! I have worked really hard for my grades! I’ve invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!”

The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, “Welcome to the Republican party.”

It’s as simple as that.

My girl asked me where I’m taking her for Valentine’s Day.  Apparently “from behind” was NOT the correct answer.

I’ve got a couple of things to say at the end here … first of all, this little comment from Leah D …

Leah D

I think I know what your problem is.
We just went through Winter, and you never hibernated.
I suspect that’s because you needed to keep your fat storage up, to fuel all your fiery comments!

You may be right, Leah … which leads me to my next thing.  Today, is the first day of Spring … well, by the time you guys get this, it will be the second day of spring.  I got up this morning and it was 25 degrees out side.  I mean, WTF?  What the heck happened?  Weren’t we supposed to get some sort of warm up with the coming of spring?  Just another something else those damn democrats have taken away from us!

Well, I’m making Lasagna Bob for dinner tonight, so I need to go get started on that.  For those of you who are unfamiliar with Lasagna Bob, it’s a little old, but you can still find it here https://www.epicurean.com/articles/lasagna-bob.html and yes, I’m quite proud of it. 

Until we meet again, dear friends and fellow campers, be well, be happy, and laugh … a lot.
