Happily retired Morfar of 10, servant of Max (he of much mischief). Grumpy old Swede.
Walking with Max around my mom's upscale neighborhood this morning. Noted with satisfaction that all the Trump signs have disappeared. One new sign, however, claims to be "Radicalized by Basic Decency". Another crack in the dam...

My 7-year-old grandson just asked me "what's the Dark Web?" I am still caffeinating this morning and not prepared for the long answer, so I told him it's where people go to buy illegal stuff.
"Like what?"
"Stuff like drugs."
"What's drugs?"
Oh my sweet child. You'll probably learn about that soon.

The angle that the safety took on Jahmyr Gibbs' touchdown run is high school bad.

Been seeing articles about disabling Apple Intelligence on your iPhone. Decided to look at the settings on mine. It’s too old to support AI. Woohoo! Trailing edge tech for the win!

Dreamed that I was a space pirate basically doing the equivalent of mugging tourists for their Rolexes, then flying down to the planet and hiding my ship under fallen leaves. Too much pizza and Endless Sky before bed, I think.

Our neighborhood is descending into chaos. Some folks still have their Halloween decorations out, some have broken out the Christmas stuff, and a few weirdos have generic Welcome Autumn banners. Nothing at all about Thanksgiving. SMH

It is right and proper to honor the soldiers on the front line, but please remember those who supported them. No one fights without weapons, ammo, food, and a thousand other things. I, for instance, delivered and maintained equipment on a flightline so the pilots could fly. We all worked together.

My granddaughters invited me to a Veteran's Day ceremony at their school this morning. We entered to a medley of Sousa marches, including the Liberty Bell March. I know you know what that means:

My grandson used to run up to folks and start yakking without warning, so his mom told him he has to ask "Can I talk to you?"
So now he runs up and starts with things like "can i talk to you do you think aliens are real?"
