Bird eat racoon. Can you imagine what that bird shit looks like? Yuuk.

At least it wasn't an Amardillo, SW!

Classic photo! FYI, armadillos are no joke when it comes to disease:

That's very thoughtful of your son in law to set that up. I know the heat is getting harder for me to take, and I've been in it all my life.

You notice as you get older that both heat and cold bothers you? Gotta stay in that old farts' Goldilocks temperature zone.

Had the new COVID - FLIRT vax yesterday -- and had a very bad day / night afterwards! Weird, I usually tolerate
these well, but I felt like I had the disease, rather than building up an immunity. True, I've had allergies lately
(fall is coming!) and went to the trouble of doing a home test beforehand (negative), but I wonder if I had already
been infected; lots of coughing going on out there in public. Chills, achey, bit of nausea, the works. Reminded me of
the first of the two Shingrix vaxxes I took, except my arm is not that sore. Feel a bit better this morning, but not much
is going to get done. Suppose I'll sit down and watch RINGS OF POWER season 2 with a nice cup of tea and lemon,
and a heavy dose of naproxen. . . .

[edit: it was the disease ]

My wife and I have had all of the COVID shots and all of the boosters. Our arms didn't even hurt that much with any of them. Neither one of us have ever tested positive for COVID; so I wonder if those who have a reaction to this new FLIRT shot are more susceptible to the FLIRT strain?

Reminded me of
the first of the two Shingrix vaxxes I took, except my arm is not that sore.

Shingrix shot #2 was a nightmare for us. The second Prevnar shot wasn't fun for me either, but Shingrix #2 was much worse.

I ain't consuming nothin' that says "sweat" on it!

Maybe the Japanese manufacturer spelled "sweet" wrong.

Reminds me of the 'mare sweat' scene from A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum (21 seconds into the video here):

Update: Just got back from the doctor. Seems I took the COVID vaccine just as I was developing COVID!

Talk about bad timing. Guess I'll just sit here, take my meds, and order from Rhino (silver lining) for a few days.

Plus, Netflix and _chills_ lol. RINGS OF POWER on Prime seems better this season; they should have at least shown
the rings in action during the first season.

Sorry to hear you're feeling like crap. Get well soon.

Good news though is you'll get to see and enjoy all the pictures GOS will be sharing here of him standing in front of bulidings, monuments and wild animals OR pictures of Clem Fandango at a Baseball game looking like Animal from The Muppets.

What's the alternative, Porn?

Nah, stick with QQ. Better for your mental health.

Well, yes. In summer the AC set at 68 deg feels pretty damn good . And in winter the temp at 74 feels groovy. I should buy a NASA space suit to control this. Not sure about cutting the grass in NASA qualified couture.
