Look who I ran into over the weekend! Yes! His Holiness, the Bishop of Rome, Pope Leo.

Been seeing a lot of hate for voters who "elected Trump". Yes, Trump received more votes than Harris by 1.5%. However, the majority of US voters didn't vote for either candidate in the 2024 election. That really means voters rejected both candidates and Trump merely won by default.

I bought a vintage motor home. Orange shag carpet! A Fleetwood Tioga built on a 1985 1 ton Chevy van chassis. It's been well cared for. The interior doesn't need much, just cleaning and paint. No roof leaks! Not sure yet about the heat, AC, etc. It needs tires.

Happy Labor Day! I found this historical marker in the Nelsonville, Ohio town square. Some of the first labor unions in America started in this area. You enjoy holidays, lunch breaks, and the 40 hour week thanks to labor unions.

As a kid I watched the greatest Indy Car drivers, AJ Foyt, Rick Mears, Al Uncer, Andretti, &ct. I've been a fan for 50 years. This IndyCar 250 is just a kissass from Penske to Trump. I'm disappointed but not surprised. Drivers and teams are whores and do anything, I mean anything, to keep racing.

Prices have increased more then 30% from 2019. 30%!!! I thought the year-over-year number of 3% inflation sounded innocent. It seemed to me like prices are much higher then just a few years ago. This is why people can't afford anything. www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation...

With Labor Day coming up many folks will be having one of the last cook outs of the summer. A good time to post both Dean Martin's and Frank Sinatra's recipes for a great burger.

I wanted to improve the quality of my podcast audio. So I created these portable acoustic panels. 12" X 12" acoustic foam glued to some leftover insulation panels I already had. One for each side of the work area and one that wedges perfectly into the window frame. Big improvement!

I just finished putting together the cutest 4X8 utility trailer. Wanted to post some pictures before I scrape it all up hauling junk.

A nearly 55 year old man won his class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. American Ben Keating who only started racing when he was in his mid 30s. Yay! Go old people!

I've got a message for Trump about voter fraud. And for RFKJr about Tylenol causing autism. And for anyone else that makes allegations without evidence.

Hitchen's razor - What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

Instead of putting Trump's face on money let's put Trump's White House on money.

I was a student at Kent State University in 1977. The crimes our government is committing today is a good reason to remember what happened back then. Here's a page out of my 1977 May Fourth Task Force Memorial Booklet. Remember the four dead and nine wounded by the Ohio National Guard in 1970.

Students Allison Krause, 19, Jeffrey Miller, 20, and Sandra Lee Scheuer, 20, died on the scene, while William Schroeder, 19, was pronounced dead at Robinson Memorial Hospital shortly afterward.
