Taking Charlie For A Leisurely Drive

Tired of being pent up in the condo and watching the effects of a 45 mph wind and slashing rains Charlie was bugging me to take a ride. Considering one of the few stores open we decided to head out to Kroger Foods. It seemed that everyone, except me, was wearing a protective mask. Wait! The customers were wearing masks. The Kroger employees weren't. Go figure.

I was in a give away mood today and thought about our wonderful Dublin police department so I decided to purchase for them $100 in gift cards to be used to buy Domino's Pizzas. The police chief thanked me and then said it was against the rules to accept gifts. They didn't turn me down two years ago when I brought in two dozen doughnuts.

Kroger doesn't accept returns at all so I'm stuck with gift cards. I'm sure I'll come up with needy folks somewhere even if I have to drive to Iowa.

I shouldn't own a Smart Phone. People over 70 shouldn't own or use Smart Phones. Awhile back I signed up to receive text from the Biden camp just to see what he was up to. Now those clowns text me five times daily.

The good news is my colonoscopy for April was canceled. The bad news is it's rescheduled for June. It's the only reason I hope the Conavirus goes for ever.

Have you ever noticed how often I use the word 'thingy' when describing another word on my blog?According to some such weisenheimer it's because the elderly substitute it when the proper word doesn't come to mind. Example, I picked up that thingy to hit a baseball.

I was watching Law & Order last night and saw an episode I'd never seen before. Top that one if you can.

What if a person lost weight by eating more? I thought of that on my way to the police department to deliver the 'thingys'.

Fact: 98% of the people who get COVID-19 in this country survive. Take away NYC, Detroit and New Orleans and the problem is non-existent.
