Where do these idiots come from?

No matter how negative and crude the future gets, I'm not eating radishes and celery.

I ate a raw catfish once. Hunger modifies persnickety.

My SO is working from home. She works at one of the larger marinas. (We had to get Viacom internet so she could telecommute) They also call-forwarded the main phone line to our home phone. Consequently she is acting as the defacto receptionist. (Not her usual job)

She just had one idiot call that said "with the price of fuel down - I would like to prepay for the season"..

Seriously? You want to pay for hundred of gallons of boat gas now - and we store it till you need it?


Try that at your local gas station... See how it goes over.


Morons.

Yup. I have morphed from IT wizard to full time delivery man.

Don't get me wrong, I am grateful to be legitimately out on the road all day and not sequestered at home , out in the fresh air (and it is particularly fresh), getting good exercise, and making some good money. But it isn't my imagined career trajectory. However, needs must. At least I am facilitating folks staying at home.

But one does happen across some odd situations. One might be delivering a parcel to some home and have it refused because of covid 19. Fair enough. You ordered it, I attempted delivery, you refused it. Those same people will then proceed to complain about non-delivery. (BTW we operate a strict no contact policy for deliveries. Fuck it on the doorstep, ring the bell and run away)

Don't moan about stuff you ordered on the internet being delivered to your home. I mean, these are next day deliveries. It's not like they can claim the situation changed overnight.

Wild onion, chicken of the woods (a lichen), I'll find stuff to eat.  It's morel season here.  I would hope to build a fire for catfish but would bite right into live crappie.

I know the word but don't know what it is unless we call it something different down here, like eggplant or nofuckinway.

Both good in soup! I like eggplant too. My mom would batter and fry it. Just like pancakes, they were. If the farmer's market has eggplant this Friday, Ima have some eggplant parmigiana!

I had that in Taormina, Sicily, back in 1974.
