I don’t like asking for help, but I don’t have a choice. I’m disabled (legally blind and an amputee). I can’t find work because employers don’t want legally blind people. Anything helps. My wife works but we still end up short. I appreciate any help.

My maternal grandfather served 35 years with this agency. I’m biased as hell, but KSP is the pride of this Commonwealth. I urge folks looking for rewarding careers to joining KSP. In service to the Commonwealth and Her citizens for 80 years.

My chihuahua, Sly. I’ve had him for 6 months. He was a rescue dog. I think he’s 13 or 14 years old.

My career has been over for a couple of years. In my heart, I will always be a trucker. I know my time on earth is coming to an end soon. I’m at peace with it.

This is MY Governor! He will not tolerate the looting and scanning of our communities during these natural disasters that have torn Kentucky asunder. Photo credit: WLEX, Lexington. #Beshear2028

Congratulations to #KentuckyStatePolice cadet class 105! You wear a uniform that few are chosen to wear.

Remember your oath to the Commonwealth and Her citizens.

On Friday morning, we found my 15 year old chihuahua, Petunia, peacefully at rest. She crossed the Rainbow Bridge that morning. We found her abandoned 5 years ago in a very rural area. I hope the last 5 years of her life were her best.

I miss you, my sweet little girl. I’ll see you again soon.

I have officially surrendered my drivers license to the Commonwealth of Kentucky. My vision is failing. I am legally blind in my right eye and have glaucoma in my left. I am unable to pass the visual acuity exam to keep my DL.

April is National Limb Loss Awareness. Someone you know or love is living the rest of their life as an amputee.

Thanks, Lou! I’m gonna swing by The Virginia and introduce myself to them before the film plays in November.

I learned today that The Virginia, a well-known local theatre here in Somerset, will be showing the film “Sergeant York”, later this year. The film was a biography of my great great grandfather, Alvin York, who was portrayed by Gary Cooper in 1941. I’m definitely gonna go.

That was pretty common in that era. Appalachian farms required a lot of work and a large family was a guaranteed source of labor.

My great great grandfather. He’d be locked and loaded in opposition to Trump and his MAGAT traitors.

It’s been 3 years since we laid you to rest. I hope you’re at peace. I’ve been thinking about you a lot lately. It doesn’t seem real that you’re not here. Wherever your soul is, just know I love you, Dad. I miss you so so much.

So, I’m on Ambien 5mg tabs. I think I took 3 of them. That’s 15 msg of sleepy meds. But it’s cool. I see my little brown friend poking his head out from the closet. He waves at me and blows me a kiss. Such a great critter.

Fortunately, I’m blessed with Andy Beshear. Our two Senators are absolute dipshits. I’m in SEKY, near the Cumberland Gap. The cognitive dissonance of Trump voters here is fucking ridiculous.

She just gained a new follower, my friend! How’s life in the Palmetto State?

I have 2.5 million miles under my belt, Lou. How many 45 year olds can boast about that? I’m saddened by the circumstances, but I had a blast out there on the road for 23 years.

Pulaski County District Court today. I’m here for a judicial order to surrender my driver’s license due to bad eyesight.

Hey, Elon! I have a great spot for you atop Black Mountain! Beautiful views of the Cumberland Gap.

The smell of weed makes me nauseous, but I agree with everything else. I’m a Dunkin’ Donuts coffee guy.
