A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone if it is to keep its edge. 📚🍷🏝️🐈🍅🌶️⚾️ 🏖️🔵
Today I noticed that Crown Royal prices have increased about 10%. Damn tariffs! 🥃

Even though this masterpiece was released in 1989, I am just now reading it. I’m about halfway done, and so far it is fantastic. #Booksky

Finished Desperation yesterday. Wow, what a ride. Started The Regulators today. Hope it’s nearly as good. #booksky #stephenking

Isn’t it ironic that BBC America is playing “White House Down”, the night before the inauguration.

I picked up this beautiful copy of Frankenstein at the bookstore yesterday. I have never read it, but anxious to. Bonus: it was on sale. #booksky

Since there’s only a few hours left of 2024, here’s some photos of this year’s garden.

Evangelicals overwhelmingly chose Ronald Reagan over Jimmy Carter — a literal Sunday school teacher.

There is no reason to think they will ever return to sanity…

Rest in peace to Submariner LT James Earl Carter Jr, USN (Ret). Carter, the only U.S. President to graduate from the U.S. Naval Academy, leaves a legacy of service. The USS Jimmy Carter (SSN-23), a Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine, carries his name in honor of his dedication to our nation.

I got gasoline for $2.20 per gallon yesterday. How much is it where you live?

Just a reminder that your local library has more than just books! Many also have dvds, cds, video games, game systems, internet hot spots, streaming services, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, and so so much more! Maybe it's time for a visit!

Thank you for all of the recent follows. I will follow back as I have time. Hope everyone in the States had an enjoyable Thanksgiving.

This is my small book haul from today. It’s an account of the months between Lincoln’s election and the confederacy’s shelling of Fort Sumter. Has anyone read it yet?

How can one go about getting a few followers on #bluesky. I left X last week and joined this platform.
