Dogs have pets, cats have staff. Turtles... well, turtles are just turtles.
If, "Hi Hi" is the radiotelegraphy equivalent of laughter, how does one send out a telegraphic fart?

IT guy promptly breaks website by fucking up php.ini file.
Was watching an episode of Gunsmoke on the tv today. There was an outdoor scene with cacti that do not grow maybe even a week's horse ride from Dodge City, Kansas.

Yeah but it makes a nice backdrop for Matt and Kitty. I guess that is to prove they are in the desert, somewhere.
Actually they only native to the Sonoran Desert of extreme southeastern California, southern Arizona and adjoining northwestern Mexico

We have a few growing naturally on the property, and a metric shit ton all around the area. I have to admit, they are really something to see when they bloom.
I planted these bad boys outside of the ground floor level bedrooms. They must be bad to the bone to survive Ohiya winters.

Those are native to this area. So are these, and they're nasty fuckers:

People call them "Jumping Cholla" (CHOY-ah) because you get stuck by them even though you're certain you never touched the thing.
Whiney bitch, we eat those for breakfast around here.
I think some of those 4 landers get, 'bad ass & dumb ass' confused. I am not ashamed to tell the BOB, that I enjoy my Wheaties for breakfast (with 6 shots of old rot gut rye poured over them)
Yeah, we have a bunch of those around, too. It's amazing how quickly the dogs learn to avoid them. I found a quick way to eliminate the thorns/stickers on the plant. Fire. Just after a rain, so the fire doesn't spread and rage, I light them on fire. They go up like a Roman candle. I have no idea what is so flammable, but it burns of every single thorn. It happens so quickly, it really doesn't damage the plant itself. It is truly an awesome sight to behold.
As far as flowering cacti go, we have one in a pot on the porch, as well as many all over the place. This thing blooms some time during the night, never in the daytime. The blooms die with in a day or so. They are quite pretty, and the insides are very delicate. Nature rocks.

Riding herd on a pressure washer all day will kick your ass. And laugh at you.
The grand kids are on their 8th Grade trip to Washington DC and the wife is taking a few days at a resort in north county, so it's just me and the cat until Friday afternoon. That means I'm calling in the hookers and breaking out the blow as I type.
Your date has arrived
You know her?
Looks like an elder daughter...
She used to beat me mercilessly.
Warts and all?
Planning out my class schedule for the next year...next spring is going to suck, badly.
But the more immediate concern is them getting my transcripts approved before the two sections I need this summer fill up :squint:
I need 6 "other science" credits for the grad school app, so I need to ask if they'll accept the frats-and-athletes geology course I took my sophomore year ten years ago because, well, I was a sophomore and I needed the easiest 3 credit hours to stay a FT student, lulz
Due to a scheduling error, I ended up working in the kitchen today rather than out on the truck. Bet none of you guys ever knew that there's such a thing as a pneumatic cheese slicer. First time I ever got paid for cutting the cheese all day.
How sharp were you?
