For me, this is comfort food; a kraut dog, a chili cheese dog (both all beef, natural casing), and bbq potato chips. Unfortunately, my CKD4 and numerous comorbidities forbid it. Still … on occasion, maybe?

6 1/2 years ago, when MSNBC and other news providers were talking to their guests remotely because of the pandemic, I tweeted David Jolly and asked this question. His wife responded and I just realized I saved a copy of this.

From my cowboy samurai days, probably 1982. Playa del Rey, CA. Back when cocaine was a health food supplement.

Bonus! I recognized the voice of one of my favorite comedian's. Ronnie Chieng had a small part. I checked with ChatGPT and, sure enough, it was him.

I'm working on developing a group of recipes that cater to my lifelong love of food & my late life need to eat a sodium restricted diet. I've been sharing my meds & test results with ChatGPT, as well as my food preferences, for over a year. It knows me well. This is Shrimp Scampi my wife made for me

Me either, but I had one of these in the late 60s.

It's 95° outside and she's sunbathing! 🤷‍♂️

This man truly sickens me (actually, referring to him as a man is exceptionally generous; he's more like a toddler). Look at all that tacky gold shit behind him. I've seen pictures of more of the Oval Office and it's filled with that crap. I despise him and every last one of his fucking supporters.

Most Americans (USAmericans) have no idea what communism actually is. This fucking moron knows even less. He's just continuing a long history of misrepresentation and fear-mongering.

I've come to the inevitable conclusion that we have raised a couple of crazy-ass kids. I give you Aimee's (25) cat's litter box and litter and Alyssa's (22) bedroom door.

I don't mean to malign hot dogs. During the 70s my old man was the broken wienie king of Los Angeles. Besides, I still love a good old all-beef, natural casing hot dog (like Vienna or Hoffy) with sauerkraut or chili, cheese, & onions. However, Tommy is such a freakin' joke, I couldn't resist.

Linda's latest watercolor effort. She's becoming prolific and almost makes me want to paint again. Problem is, I have Essential Tremors and my hand shakes like crazy. Then again, it might give me a really distinctive style. 🤷‍♂️

This is one pathetically sick motherfucker. With ignorant fools like him in positions of "leadership", this country has definitely jumped the shark. Vote him out in November, Louisiana. He's not doing you any favors ... at ALL.

Blows me away to realize I was seven years old when Brown v. BofE was decided.

This is Zachy. He would greet us in the driveway when we got home. He was very vocal and extremely loving. He crossed the rainbow bridge during the pandemic and is sorely missed. #Caturday

At the risk of repeating myself, perhaps ad nauseam, I love this guy!
