Greetings and Salutations!
Man… Glad I’m in shape.
Round is a shape innit?
Sapper and I still live despite exceptional gastronomic overload yesterday. Dinner tonight was a mite on the lite side as neither of us had much of an appetite almost 24 hours later STILL.
That as some good grub man.
Some of y’all comments cracked me the fuck up too. Like literally laughed out loud. In fact I realized something… I’ve laughed out loud MORE in the past 4 days than I have in the last 4 months.
Like genuine laughter at some ‘stuff’ I haven’t enjoyed in a while. Case in point, SWMNBN didn’t like Cartoons. For the life of me, I can NOT understand how you can’t enjoy Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny and the rest… nevermind the fact we are BOTH GenX and cartoons were the “Staff of Saturday Morning Life” for our generation. Sapper thinks it’s that she lacks the ability understand abstract concepts… like that question “If you didn’t eat breakfast this morning, how would you feel now?”
In my case I think it’s her inability to embrace or understand absurdity. Either way, Saturday Morning Bug Bunny was on MeTV and one I haven’t seen in ages popped up “Forward March Hare” where Bugs gets drafted:
At 00:19 seconds in, the guy behind Bugs?
He looked at the camera, and did that insane giggle? Maaaan I lost it for some reason. Genuinely laughed my ass off. I mean it is funny, especially in light of the whole “Rabbit drafted into the Army” thing…the X-Ray tech was great too. I LOL’d when I saw the ‘ear bone’ so to speak…
Over all it’s been a very stress free weekend.
I also got a package today from a Kickstarter that I had completely forgotten about. Not sure about y’all but I’m not too big into the whole Kickstarter thing… This one though I figured that why not? It wasn’t going to break my bank so to speak and if it vanished, well OK. Sapper does a LOT of Kickstarter support, and his track record hasn’t been too bad… likje me he’ll do one, and months later, out of the blue a ‘rando-package’ shows up and then it’s a “Ohhhhh yeeeeah!!! I forgot about this!!!”
This was a instance like that here today. I opened said package and……..

Meet “Clay the Claymore”
Some of you probably already saw it on Gab where I put it up earlier… It’s waaaay cute. It’s also got a BIG velcro section on the back, which is how I was able to mount him to the front of my vest… I have no idea why, but this stupid lil thing makes me very happy for some reason.
Now supposedly they’re still up for sale. I’m unsure. I got mine via a Kickstarter. And the tag on mine says “Only 10431 made”

The website is https://claytheclaymoreplush.com/
YMMV, don’t run with scissors.
After getting it I did order another… Ranger Jay has his first kid on the way… I’m not sure if the Redhead would like it or not… she also is a wee bit spoiled when it comes to plushies… I got her a “Blood God” plushie AKA “Nanner” from ‘Sketch’s World’:

For those of you unfamiliar, ‘Sketch’ is a former Marine who does a comic called ‘Sketch’s World’… he’s funny AF w/various takes on the DotMil as well as the various services…



Nanner is oft referred to as “The Blood God”
The plushie was a limited run and well, the Redhead didn’t cotton onto it… I think it’s b/c she has WAY too many to even notice it. So Yep..
Then lastly, a meme that cracked me up courtesy of CA over at WRSA:

“Flammenwerfers” need to be added to the ‘No Step on Snek’ side of things… Jes’ Sayin’.
So tomorrow I’ll have a wee bit of a writeup on an idea about countering drones. Herschel from The Captain’s Journal put up a suggestion on Twitter that I responded to, and I can elaborate more on. The tweet in question is this:
My idea is in the replies.
I got a few more thoughts on the subject to go over later.
Otherwise, the commenter who mentioned the 2003 Lincoln? If you can reach out to me at bce187th@protonmail.com. I’d appreciate it. I really need my own wheels. Also, I haven’t heard back from the raffle winner. I know the email was delivered (I got confirmation of that) so the clock is rolling there. If I don’t get a response, I’ll pull another name in a week. And those of you who asked, the new PayPal is CountryofBigExpat if you want to know…
All contributions to keeping the lights on are appreciated, but not absolutely necessary (for now thank the Good Lord!)
If I don’t hear back, I’ll reopen the raffle for another week ‘cos I had a LOT of people email and DM me saying they wanted to join, but as the fucking cunt had hijacked my shit, well… Yeah… about that… I hope the fucking Feds nail her DC Ass to the wall as I did report that shit. Interstate Wire Fraud is a thing donchaknow?
So it’s now time to game out for a bit. I’m at the end of my 2nd run thru Fallout London, this time being a ‘bad guy’ which is something I like about the Fallout series, being able to do different factions and whatnnot….
So More Later
