Hello to my SG friends, I haven't been on in a while for a variety of reasons. Life's been complicated, but I'm all kinds of happy that I've got the new album from my favorite guys: RAMMSTEIN! It was a long time coming, but totally worth the wait. I've really been enjoying "Puppe", "Radio", "Auslander",and "Weit Weg". How about you?

I really want to listen to each song carefully, think I'll download on Spotify and listen to it today! And welcome back ;)

Thank you @melyse for the welcome back :-)  I hope you like the new album, it took a day or two for it to grow on me beyond Deutschland, Radio, and Auslander, but now I'm really digging it!

I was originally going to post something silly, and maybe slightly cynical, regarding Christmas. Considering the hell Southern California (my home) has been through lately with the wild fires, some online fun seemed to be timely.

That will have to wait though. I've seen a few posts now from the wonderful ladies here on SG regarding unsolicited pics of a personal nature.

Guys I don't...

Thank you.

I'm on the same page, unfortunately some people believe that translates into a personal disdain for dick pics. i put it the way in one of the groups "anyone that sends an unsolicited dick pic, is just an unsolicited dick"

I was looking for a distraction from the damn fire and crazzzzy friggin' smoke and read about Disney & Fox. Since Disney has officially purchased Fox and that means they now hold the rights to several properties you might not initially associate with Disney (I'm looking at you my beloved Alien franchise), I felt prompted to find something related online. And here's the result!

And

A few of you may know that I live in Ventura County (North of LA) as do most of my family and friends. As a lifelong resident I've seen a lot of nasty wildfires and other than a couple that took pace on the County's border with Malibu this one is the worst I've witnessed. Several houses in my Dad's neighborhood were lost, a neighborhood...

Thank you @ironsides1964, I appreciate your kind thoughts.

Thanks for the question @ski, they happen for a variety of reasons. Wind, etc bringing power lines down, cooking fires getting out of control in homeless encampments,, people being idiots with fireworks (even though they're illegal in all but 1 city). The long drought we've had created conditions that made it a matter of time before something happened. And yet I saw some idiot flick a cigarette out his car window a few days ago.

I laughed my ass off at this first one since I worked several black Fridays in retail years ago. Ah memories. Anyway, I hope you're as amused as I was!

Ok, I'm not looking forward to the gathering I'm going to for Thanksgiving. At all really. BUT. I'm trying to be positive and reframe things, and what I came up with is that once Thursday's over I can do whatever the hell I want on "Black Friday" and it damn sure isn't gonna be shopping! Perhaps this picture will give you an idea of...

I actually don't have a problem with Thanksgiving, just some of the people I feel obligated to be nice to even though they're irritating as hell. You know, the same feeling a shit ton of people have LOL. There are people I spend it with that I'm thankful for and like being with, like my Dad. It's just those other relations ya know?? Anyway, I...

I got all pissed off today because I saw a friggin' Best Buy commercial for friggin' Christmas and it isn't even friggin' Halloween!

I know, I know, that's just how it's gotten to be anymore but can't we have Halloween without Santa sticking his ass into it?? (That's a quote from comedian Lewis Black btw). I've got nothing against Xmas itself mind you, but one...

Autumn leaves, cinnamon pine cones, and pumpkins great & small!

It may feel like summer in Southern California, but at least the house looks like Autumn. Now if it would just cool off and rain...


Have I mentioned I love October & Halloween?
