Happy Veterans celebration to all Veterans.
I put a little in the box and got two poppies today. 🙂
As did I, stuffed a 10 spot in the slot, he offered a flower but I passed. We then talked about Huey’s in the war for a long time.
My grandson had a local channel on and I swear the Medicare, Humana and drug commercials are ridiculous. Medicare commercials it seems like there are a lot of confused and lost individuals in fact it makes me wonder how these people got as far in life as they have to even go on Medicare that they have no clue how to navigate that. Next drug companies commercials oh my God the side effects are worse for what you’re even taking the drug for and the new weight loss drugs are worse than the covid vaccines. Lab rats everywhere they are pushing so much crap on people.
After 15 minutes of listening these damn commercials I told my grandson to go back to YouTube!
Medicare Advantage plans are not Medicare but they are a bad idea as explained in the video below.

It’s like Huxley’s “Brave New World” is in operation right now. Ten seconds of what a drug does then fifty seconds of it’s negative side effects and cautions. Big pharma is just rebranded old snake oil.
Beautiful crisp fall day for a wine walk. Play today and finish raking leaves, about 5 bags worth tomorrow. Hmmmmmm I think raking will deserve a large Bailey’s and coffee in the the morning before I start the task
Gather weapons and ammo!
Canned food, water & TP!

Actually you should have already done that just to be prepared for a major earthquake or the next Bio Weapons Lab leak.
Weapons and ammo a big check here in Clayton!
I think the comment I was responding to got deleted… but still, good advice.
Mayor,
Is there a way to “justify” sentences on these comment boards so the words don’t break off and resume on the next line?
That and blank line to separate paragraphs seem to have been turned off perhaps by mistake or miss-labeled in WordPress. Default would be for both on. I would have no idea why it would be turned off.
It’s been my experience that WordPress does whatever weird stuff it wants, without considering my needs or desires.
Yea gets kind of monotonous seeing that all the time but I’m used to it now.
Was looking forward to quakity Italian food, but I hear WC Original Joe’s is not as good as the others.
What is wrong with restaurants in our town? Rocco’s is now Mexican Italian and the recipes differ according to the mood of the untrained kitchen staff goofing off.
Tomatina is just a shell of it’s old self with higher prices and a poor management.
ANyone know where to find good Italian that doesn’t suck the life out of your wallet and mood?
I
Slightly off topic.
Trader Joe’s has lemon baked ricotta back for the holidays. It’s imported from Italy and delicious when served warm.
Well said Aunt B …. been seeing the same thing of Rocco’s for awhile – Original Joe’s was ok but disappointed – but you’re right – bring a wad of cash and be prepared to walk a good ways to park your car if you go at a popular time
Pizza Antica in Lafayette.
Quakity Italian food?
Any duck dish served along with some pasta & sauce qualifies as Italian… but it’s pretty rare to see it on an Italian Restaurant menu.
It is duck season BTW, look out for pellets in the meat.
It’s wabbit season!
As a matter of fact it is wabbit season, July 1 – Jan 25 and the limit is 5
except that jackwabbits may be taken all year and there is no limit.
Dining out without breaking the wallet is tougher between food costs and operation expenses. The business does need to be able to keep the lights on and if they are providing quality ingredients it is reflected in menu prices. Minimum wage goes up again on January 1st as well.
Montecatini in WC. Still has really good food after a gazillion years
It tasted a gazillion years old COVERED IN EXCESS SAUCE on my last visit. 🙁
I can’t speak to the Mexican-Italian food at Rocco’s. But I can attest to the fact that the Dominator pizza at Rocco’s is the best!
Check out Fiore’s. It is a little hole in the wall place in between Lucky’s and the abandoned Kmart on Clayton.
Fiore has an awesome Caesar salad with prawns.
earthquake about 9:38 this morning.
The key to a happy life is to find happiness within.
Yeah, within a big savings account.
I can always count on you to savor the moment…
