Wait, What...you answer the door????   Angel
Right? I look through the peephole first. That's for the ones who go past the gate that says, "Please, no Soliciting. Thank You". It doesn't latch, because we tore down the decrepit 55 year old wall that it closed on. I'm going to build an ornamental iron gate for the front entry, as soon as I can find a person to bend the arches to match the miters in the entryway. I can weld the rest, but bending those pieces I can't do. Well, maybe. I made a fan shroud for my truck. I beat a piece of aluminum strap over a 5 gallon propane tank that had an expired proof pressure date (thus, empty), using a 2-pound sledge hammer. Guess I can buy some square steel tube, now. I'll see if I can get a red blood cell transfusion, first. I'm at least a quart low.  Sad

My home office is at the front of the house and the door is right next to the front door.  I usually see anyone walking up and it better be UPS, Fedex, a grocery delivery, or food delivery or I am tempted to crawl out in the hallway to pretend I am not here.  LOL

Feel better soon.

Thanks! Body not making enough red blood cells is quite annoying. It doesn't hurt, really, but when we put the French Country buffet in the family room, and took the two cabinets out of the family room to the curb, even though my youngest son did most of the work, I was breathing hard. Coming from a guy who used to run for miles with no trouble, this is quite concerning. I put out a notice on a metalworking forum that I am a member of, either for forming those pieces or making the whole thing.

Should cocaine be freely available to anyone who wants it to get us all through the next four years?

I've found that punji stakes, trip-wires, pit-traps, and explosive devices are a good way to avoid unwanted visitors.

It's good to have options.

Characters on telly are always telling their kids to wash their faces with soap to prevent acne.

But in reality, washing my face with soap gives me acne.

Yes, even at my ripe old age I still get acne.

Yup. Fuck all this ‘women should be demure’ shit. I admire a woman who’s not afraid to slam a groper’s head repeatedly on the bar and then dare him to call the cops.

So I married her.

Kia are attempting to dethrone Tesla as 'Makers Of The Ugliest Truck In The History Of Trucks'. They aren't there yet, but this is a noble effort
