gonna be 20 tmrw morning so gotta make good use of it

did a little stick in yard cleanup

bulbs already starting to poke out

birds sound like they are jockeying for breeding

We both wish. Lately trimming the beard has been as annoying as a full shave...all the stray hairs that the blade doesn't catch, trying to even out the sideburns etc...

grabbed a 3rd bike ride before sunset

a wonderful blast of warmth and respite from a cold winter

so many happy people out enjoying the sun

like flowers arising from the earth to greet the spring

we shall bloom again

Son's down from Broome for country week basketball carnival. 2nd game he landed awkwardly on his leg and went down. Spent day at emergency care. Looks like he may have blown his knee out. Fucking long day folks.

[96583UP]

hurt like hell

still pops when i extend my leg

basketball a deceivingly dangerous game

[Ello Sailor]

Knees are absolute bastards. Hope he makes a speedy recovery.

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Snow day.
Working from home so not a play day. Not as bad as I was expecting though. If the incoming round of freezing rain doesn’t knock out my power I am good.

Wellness check. Where are you, man?

The people who I'm working for today have motion smoothing turned on on their TV. I may have to tell them...

[dimejinky99]

I find it incredibly weird and very telling we don’t have a thread for jokes on rm

Best jokes you heard in a bar or from a cab driver or an auld guy at a bus stop.

How am I only noticing this now?

[epilogue]

You can make that thread, you know

[dimejinky99]

I know but if I did it it would just disappear into the ether.

Recently went looked at all the first threads I started and replied to when this iteration of rm statutes. We were a wild strange bunch all of us back then:)

Do you want me to make the thread for you?

[Jorge]

I am pretty sure we used to have a Jokes thread but it got lost in the Bammer wipe

[dimejinky99]

No don’t do it yet pal.

I’m just double thinking and overthinking now and w a lot of it from over here wouldn’t work and maybe too vernacular / geo specific

But I’ll work on a few n see.

Actually bring it up cos one of great poets died the other day. He was so much more than a poet. A gods eye on the human condition and people and Dublin. He just had that eye and that wit. He was beloved but we didn’t love him back enough sadly. Until he died of course.

He was so funny. I’ll try find a funny one but this. For now

DYING

I think the wi-fi broke on my TV and I also hate that my TV has wi-fi.
