Leon Skum, or the OilyMuskyFunk that Rules/Rues/Ruins America

Earlier this month two men avoided burning to death in their vehicle by breaking out the windows and escaping. The vehicle?  Tesla Model 3. News report states that the men noticed smoke, pulled over, but could not get out. Auto-lock feature engaged?  Car actively tried to kill them?  So many questions. Back in November 2024, four …

So Good to be So Right

2024.  Over already.  Good.  This has been one colostomy-bag filled year. Met a face-tatted, poo-flinging monkey who completely derailed $$$ plans for the year, BUT but put a new roof on the home of the Elder, so the FDOs could have a solid covering.  There is that. Had $11K (yes that is thousand) in vehicle …

Death Be Coming

Now she is pretty good.  Color me impressed. The impending demise of the ‘Murrican FaceTik/InstaTok is looming, and folks have feelings. Personally, never really traversed that peculiar social media minefield. Don’t do much of any of that, really. Liking the Tubes of You, ‘cept for the ads … oh so many ads … OK so quicktake—the …

And So It Begins (Again) / House Divided, or Civil War, pt Deux

Well THAT was depressing. Guess not feeling much in the way of positivity/hope-tivism since the election. Folks experiencing some serious doom/gloom, dappled with lotsa lotsa regret. Dunno if it will be as all bad as predicted, buuuuuuttttt … we do have direct past experience so very likely to be quite horrid.  Saw that a federal …

Let’s Get Ready to Grumble

Called a lawyer to see about inflicting some financial injury on the face-tatted, poo-flinging monkey. Gah, doan wanna, but hey … don’t start nothing, won’t be nothing. Good news – bit of a packrat, so kept all communications, contracts, etc. And megeddit … times are tough for everyone. However.  Why make it tougher on a …

The More Things Change the More They Don’t

Lon and Gretta married older … he was 42, she just 39.  Before the wedding, both owned their own homes and enjoyed fairly comfortable, relatively debt-free lifestyles.  With a $60K annual income, Gretta earned a bit more than Lon.  After the nuptials, they combined incomes and sold their homes to buy a bigger, more expensive …

Broke v. Poor

One is a condition.  The other?  A mindset.  Mentioned mightily amongst these parts re the scammery committed against the Elder’s home, a certain face-tatted, poo-flinging monkey (accompanied by a twitchy band of roving merry tweakers) that attacked, left a mess.  Bananas everywhere. Still dealing with the fallout from that … saw online that it takes …

DumpsterTruck?  Dumpster Fire

Whenever one of these is seen in the wild, methinks cannot help but think some mid-range rich got got, and the oily, musky funk struck, once again. Even raccoons think it’s trash … https://cowboystatedaily.com/2024/08/06/raccoons-mistake-cybertruck-for-dumpster-and-wyoming-auto-experts-agree/ There is a certain amount of “jonesing” involved in buying ugly, overpriced, inefficient hardware to drive/ride around in, so folks can …
