Another day is done

Started with a candy walk and ended with a dinner party. Life is good.

First deliveries. We changed our route and hit some new neighborhoods before finishing with our “regulars.”

There were like thirty of these boats stacked here. No idea why, but rainy season is coming…

It seems we interrupted bath time for one of those kids

Come and get it!

Later, we hoofed it out to Baloy and visited Steve and Viola’s place for a small dinner gathering.

L-R: Viola, Arvy, and Swan. Another couple arrived later.
That’s Steve on the left. His neighbor (don’t recall the name) dropped by but didn’t stay long

So, there was grilled chicken and pork, a chicken curry dish, and sides like salad, cole slaw, and potato salad. The cornbread muffins I contributed seemed popular.

The spread

The food was good, the beer was cold, and the company was entertaining. A few beers in, and us menfolk started talking politics and the fucked up mess the world has become. Steve’s an Aussie, but his Prime Minister is apparently almost as bad as Biden. Here’s to hoping the voters wake up from their ignorance and elect some new leadership. I’m not holding my breath, though.

The day was better than this post. I got so bored writing it that I had to take a nap. I’m back now, so bear with me.

Speaking of politics, here’s the Trump ad targeting minority voters in Georgia that Google doesn’t want you to see. They say it violates their “standards,” but they don’t say why. Spend thirty seconds, give it a watch, and you’ll see what protecting the leftie narrative is all about. Disgusting.

And here is another example of why I’m expecting trouble from China here in the Philippines. Duterte was China’s bitch, but so far, the current President is taking a stand to defend his country. We’ll see how long he can hold out. The fact that there is a joint exercise taking place now with the USA, Japan, and Australia is a good sign as well.

Let’s do the Quora Q&A:

Q: Have you ever dawdled a moment so you could stand a few steps behind a girl wearing hot pants on the escalator?

A: Of course not! I’d only do that if it were a short skirt.

Watch out for the creepy old man!

Maybe these will make you smile:

Don’t knock it
A good example of saying the quiet part out loud
Shit happens

Anyway, Hash Monday is upon me. It’s a Vienna Sausage trail and a hot day. I’m sure there is a shortcut or two in my future. Tell you about it tomorrow.

  1. I have now magnified and scrutinized every inch of Swan’s body in the recent pics and I can safely say there are NO signs of her having gotten beaten up. It obviously didn’t happen unless it was something like a timely slap to the head to wake her brain up as she is female and lord knows they need their brains woken up (although I think with you having been married four times I am preaching to the choir here!).

    Anyway it’s all good, no real harm no foul like they say so I’m going to wish you all a good day and may the alcohol flow!

  2. There were like thirty of these boats stacked here.

    There’s a sign next to the boats that has some Tagalog and Spanish on it. I recognize the Spanish word basura, which means “garbage.”

    Douglas Adams would approve of Swan’s use of that towel.

    Another couple arrived later.

    And the very next pic shows… two guys! I thought to myself, “You go, guys!” What a cute couple.

    Good luck with today’s Hash.

  3. Kev, I think that sign predates the boats’ presence. It was on a vacant lot, and the sign warned against dumping trash there.

    Swan deploys that towel in many ways, so yeah, Adams would approve!

    Haha! Yeah, that was inartfully worded—not that there is anything wrong with being gay 🙂 Another couple did arrive later, but it was a relatively small party.
