Once on an LSD trip I ended up disoriented at a Halloween party with a Mr. Microphone in my hand. When people asked me what my costume was I just pointed to my hand and said: โ€œItโ€™s a Mr. Microphone.โ€

I wanted a Mr. Microphone so bad when I was a kid but when my dad asked why I wanted it I said because I wanted to fart over the radio.

I did not get a Mr. Microphone.

Top Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military Bases Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

"Stephen Miller soon joined a growing list of senior Trump-administration political appointeesโ€”at least six by our countโ€”living in Washington-area military housing, where they are shielded not just from potential violence but also from protest." Others include Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth.

One hitch is finding repair parts for an older bike like this could be hard I saw in your you were going to check some bike shops and that's a great idea! While you're looking, check w friends & neighbors. Lots of people bought bikes at the beginning of Covid and they're just sitting around now.

If the bike is in safe riding condition and is priced very low that would be fine for commuting. Not totally sure what they mean by "thumb tap" - could mean it has under bar push button shifters but hard to say. The 2 x 8 means the crankset has two chainrings and the cassette in the back has 8 cogs

He was so excited to be bopping around freely, it was a lot of fun.

Hobbes, a black lab, walks through a field of tall grass and weeds with his tail high and his ears flopping as he  follows a hard to see deer trail. There are some hardwoods in the distance and the sky is grey and cloudy.

A close up of Hobbes' (a black lab) head from above as he lingers smelling every part of a weed. A multi inch scar is visible on the top of his snout. We were in this spot for almost 4 minutes.

Finally back to off leash walks with Hobbes. The dude was beside himself being able to go off trail again and get into the weeds and smell all the smells.

A black lab named Hobbes laying on a goldish colored chair with dark paisley stitching. He has wormed his way behind the back cushion and pushed it forward so heโ€™s laying on both the seat and back cushions. The tan protective chair cover is bunched up and useless as chair protection but itโ€™s doing a great job as a snuggle buddy

I'm sorry Linda, it's a lot to take in but I know Opus is in great hands with you handling all this. Our support to you and scritches to Opus.

Itโ€™s 4 AM. Weโ€™re in the middle of the 32nd inning. The ballpark kiss cam keeps panning to the only two people left in the stadium.

Apples, the shadow heโ€™s standing in is from one of our apple trees. Weโ€™re hoping he comes through again tonight so Kerri can get some good photos.

Our new fox pal visited again last night. Too close to the house so I couldnโ€™t sneak out to get a better video without scaring it away so janky dirty window video is all I could get.

Yeah! Heโ€™s been so good about the cone, it was sweet to see the extra bounce in his step with it off yesterday.
