The Grateful Dead early 70s

August 1st is Jerry Garcia’s birthday.
August 9th is the anniversary of his death in 1995.
The nine days from August 1st to 9th, are known as “The Days Between”
named for the Grateful Dead’s song on “So Many Roads” released in 1999.
CELEBRATE THE LIFE AND MUSIC OF JERRY GARCIA!

First LIVE performance of “So Many Roads”:
February 22, 1992, at the Oakland Coliseum Arena.

Thought I heard a blackbird singing
Up on Bluebird Hill
Call me a whinin’ boy if you will
Born where the sun don’t shine
And I don’t deny my name
Got no place to go, ain’t that a shame?
– “So Many Roads” by the Grateful Dead
written by Jerry Garcia and Robert Hunter

Grateful Dead – “So Many Roads”
From the last Grateful Dead concert: – July 9, 1995, at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois

8:30am: And TGIFriday! It’s Friday!
We were up all morning long, and we laid down after sunrise.
And then the dogs were awake and barking.
The dogs went outside. The dogs got fed. 
We drank a cup of espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.
We just published Part One of “The Days Between” Blog Posts.
We worked on future Blog Posts this morning too.
But TRAVEL MUST WAIT AGAIN, so we are in LIMBO right now.
There are ROOFERS on our street, and they start too early.
They are replacing the wood shake roof across the street this week.
(Can’t even imagine how HOT it must be up there in August!)

Today’s SECRET WORD is HELP:

-make it easier by offering one’s services/resources
-serve someone with (food or drink)
-improve (a situation or problem); be of benefit to
-aid, assist, improve, remedy, support
-the act of helping someone to do something; assistance
-a person or thing that helps, a domestic employee
-giving assistance to
-an appeal for urgent assistance
– a song title and the fifth studio album by the Beatles

The Beatles’ “HELP!” was released on August 6th, 1965.
(WOW! We did not know that, and that’s a really weird coincidence!)

10:55am: We made another iced espresso.
Watching TV: “Flight of the Conchords” in concert on HBO.
+Surfing the interweb, and working on this Blog Post for a couple hours.
12:00Noon: We did a little dog grooming, and brushed out all the dogs.
We do a little bit everyday of course, but they all got brushed this morning.
We took them outside and now they are happy in the kitchen.
And we might be hungry.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

It’s HIROSHIMA DAY! (aka “A-BOMB DAY”)
The anniversary of the first World War II Atomic Bomb attack on Japan.
Hiroshima Heiwa Kinen Kōen is a public park in the center of Hiroshima, Japan. It is a memorial dedicated to the first city to suffer a nuclear attack, the memory of the victims (as many as 140000), and to WORLD PEACE. Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is visited by more than one million people every year. The annual August 6th Peace Memorial Ceremony is sponsored by the city of Hiroshima.

The A-Bomb Dome is the former Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall.
The building is the nearest building to the bombing that remained partially standing.
It’s now another memorial to the August 6th, 1945, 8:15am nuclear explosion.

“the Peace Memorial Ceremony has never once been cancelled since the Cenotaph for the A-Bomb Victims was built in Peace Memorial Park in 1952, the Peace Memorial Ceremony will be held this year in a similar manner as last year with strict COVID-19 infection prevention measures.”

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

10:22pm: Recapping Friday afternoon. We made some lunch.
TV, interweb, YouTube, podcasts. We were mildly entertained.
We fell asleep with the dog and slept.
We woke up and then we went back to bed and slept some more.

On The Menu: Fried chicken breast, quesadilla with salsa verde,
and a dill pickle. With an iced espresso to drink.

We woke up again. The dogs got fed and went outside.
We made and ate some dinner at 10:00pm. GOOD SHABBOS!

On The Menu: Double helping of Mama’s homemade lasagna. And a coke.

NOTE: We were invited to Friday night dinner again.
We don’t feel it is safe to eat and party
with people not inside your bubble again….
WE DON’T KNOW: WHO IS FULLY VACCINATED?
WE DON’T KNOW: WHO IS INFECTED AND CONTAGIOUS?
Is it really safe to party indoors with people who are vaccinated? 
Do you know where they’ve been and who’ve they’ve contacted?
Are they being honest about their status and contacts?
So, we didn’t go the party and we ate our dinner alone.
And then we had a little dessert.

On The Menu: Chocolate Cake from Benes Bakery with Haagen-Daas
vanilla ice cream, Hershey’s chocolate syrup, and whipped cream

Thought I heard that KC whistle
Moaning sweet and low
Thought I heard that KC when she blow
Down where the sun don’t shine
Underneath the Kokomo
Whinin’ boy got no place to go

TRAVEL ALERT! DO NOT TRAVEL!

Spirit Airlines cancelled over 2000 flights this week!!!!! 
with more cancellations coming this weekend.
Passengers have been left stranded at airports across the country for days.
TOTAL FAIL. And there won’t be any penalties of course. 
Can you even imagine being stuck in line with hundreds of strangers
for hours with the Delta Variant spreading?

Saturday, August 7, 2021
Happy Birthday Ralph Bunche! Born in 1904 in Detroit, Michigan.
He was the first African-American to receive the Nobel Prize in 1950.
BLACKLIVESMATTER!

3:50am: Still awake. Working on Blog Posts, watching TV, surfing the interweb,
and watching YouTube vids and Livestreams. Sleepy time soon.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZ

7:15am: We are awake again. The dogs got fed and went outside.
We drank a cup of espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.

8:00am: We took the dog outside again. Now it’s nappy time for the dogs.

Today is the midpoint of Summer in the Northern Hemisphere
and Winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

9:10am: The gardeners are here.
They’re going to work in the backyard today.
We did a little dog grooming. And we thought about some food.
But we don’t know what we want to eat right now.
And we’ve had our coffee already, and we don’t want to drink more right now.

10:00am: Okay, we made an iced espresso. Still no food.
We’re chilling’ in the Home Office with the dog again.

Thought I heard that KC whistle
Moaning sweet and low
Thought I heard that KC when she blow
Down where the sun don’t shine
Underneath the Kokomo
Whinin’ boy got no place to go

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZ

12:25pm: We woke up and took the dogs outside.
We ate some food. Then we fell asleep again.
On The Menu: Leftover lasagna for lunch

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZ

7:30pm: We woke up again. Crashed hard. 
And the gardeners were just finishing up in the backyard for the day.
It’s Saturday night. We got the dogs. The dogs got fed.
The dogs went outside. Now we’re chillin’ in the Home Office again.
BORING. So BORING.
We put on some music and the dogs are napping now.

8:40pm: ONE MORE SATURDAY NIGHT.

So many roads, I tell you
So many roads I know
So many roads, so many roads
Mountain high, river wide
So many roads to ride
So many roads, so many roads

Recapping Saturday night. We worked on our future Blog Posts.
We watched TV, surfed the interweb, watched YouTube vids and livestreams, 
and we were entertained, occupied, and distracted into the early AM hours.

Criminal Complaint filed against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Sexual harassment and retaliation? The Democrats are giving him up.
Albany, NY Police press conference today. Not good for him.
The NY Attorney General’s press conference was also not good for him.
THIS IS JUST MORE GOOD MEDIA DISTRACTION
FROM TRUMP AND THE GOP TRAITOR’S TREASON!

The Senate is meeting today to vote on the “Bi-Partisan” Infrastructure Bill.
And 700000 Bikers are still gathering in Sturgis, South Dakota, this week!
They didn’t learn their lesson from last year, of course.
YES, PEOPLE ARE REALLY GREEDY AND STUPID.

United Airlines will require ALL EMPLOYEES get vaccinated.

THE NEW LAMBDA VARIANT IS SPREADING IN THE UNITED STATES!
“highly infectious, may also be able to evade vaccine antibodies”

The SARS-CoV-2 Lambda variant, also known as lineage C.37, is a variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. It was first detected in Peru in December 2020. On 14 June 2021, the World Health Organization named it Lambda variant and designated it as a variant of interest – wikipedia

Investigators in Chile conclude that the lambda COVID-19 variant is not only more infectious than standard SARS-CoV-2, but could also possibly shrug off vaccines. The first case in the United States has been spotted at Houston Methodist Hospital. – July 30, 2021

120000 New COVID-19 Cases in the United States yesterday.
The highest daily number in six months! Delta Variant is spreading fast.
619900+ Reported US DEATHS from COVID-19 as of this morning!
Hospitalizations are rising. Children are being infected.
And so, LET’S SEND THE KIDS BACK-To-SCHOOL. WTF?
Deaths are increasing again. The unvaccinated are dying.
And so, LET’S REMOVE MASK MANDATES and RESTRICTIONS. WTF?
And only 50% of the US population is Fully Vaccinated.
And so, WTF? Are they just waiting for the vaccine-resistant variant?
WE WANT TO GO OUT! WE WANT TO TRAVEL! WE DON’T WANT TO WORRY!
WHO THE FUCK IS IN CHARGE OF THE PANDEMIC RESPONSE?
WHY ISN’T THERE A NATIONAL EMERGENCY MANDATE?
WHY AREN’T THERE DOMESTIC TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS?

THERE NEEDS TO BE A 40 DAY TOTAL SHUTDOWN.
QUARANTINE EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, except for actual essential workers.
NATIONAL GUARD/LAW ENFORCEMENT if necessary to enforce the shutdown.
REQUIRE EVERYONE GET VACCINATED IF THEY WANT TO GO OUT IN PUBLIC.
EVERYONE. And Rapid Testing for EVERYONE EVERY WEEK until it is eradicated.
ARREST AND PROSECUTE ANYONE SPREADING MISINFORMATION AND LIES!

The Delta Variant is VERY CONTAGIOUS and it might kill you.
4,304,980 Reported Deaths from COVID-19 Worldwide!
(the actual number is much higher)
COVID-19 is currently affecting 220 countries and territories.

If it was just the “vaccine-deniers” that were dying, that would be okay.
THEY ARE THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE AND THE STATE NOW!
Hospitals should refuse to accept patients who have not been fully vaccinated.
The unvaccinated should be restricted from ALL PUBLIC SPACES.
Masks that cover the nose and mouth should be required EVERYWHERE.

STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME!
ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT.
WEARAFUCKING(DOUBLE)MASK! WEARAFUCKING(DOUBLE)MASK!

One More Saturday Night!

Sunday, August 8, 2021 – the 220th day of the year!

“Dear Jerry” Envelope Art (copyright 2015 JoshWillTravel)

2:30am: We finally made some dinner at 1:00am.

On The Menu: 2 beef soft tacos with avocado and salsa verde
And an iced espresso to drink.

Thought I heard a jug band playin’
If you don’t who else will?
From over on the far side of the hill
All I know the sun don’t shine
And the rain refused to fall
And you don’t seem to hear me when I call

7:15am: SUNDAY! SUNDAY! Sunday morning. And we’re awake early.
We drank a cup of espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.

8:05am: We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.

9:10am: We made an iced espresso and played with the dog.
Now he’s napping under the desk.
The other dogs are sleeping in the bedroom.

11:45am: We just made and ate Sunday Brunch.
On The Menu: Toasted bagel with lox and cream cheese; dill pickle,
pita chips, and cherries

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

9:10pm: We fell asleep and really slept.
The dogs went outside. The dogs got fed.
We woke up and thought it was morning, but it was actually sunset.
Wait, it’s Sunday night. We took a shower. We made an iced coffee.

10:15pm: We drank our iced coffee. We played with and groomed the dog.
We haven’t eaten since Brunch, so we’re thinking about food again now.

Wind inside and the wind outside
Tangled in the window blind
Tell me why you treat me so unkind
Down where the sun don’t shine
Lonely and I call your name
No place left to go, ain’t that a shame?

We miss Jerry! We think about the music he could have made. RIP

Recapping Monday night on Tuesday morning again.
We woke up and made dinner. NO SALAD TONIGHT.
On The Menu: Toasted bagel with lox and cream cheese, dill pickle,
potato chips and cherries with an iced espresso to drink.

From the land of the midnight sun
Where the ice blue roses grow
Along those roads of gold and silver snow
Howlin’ wide or moaning low
So many roads I know
So many roads to [unverified] my soul

DONALD TRUMP AND THE GOP TRAITORS REMAIN
A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO THE WORLD in Summer of 2021!

THE GOP TRAITORS ARE LYING TO YOU!
DON’T BELIEVE THEIR LIES!
YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY HAPPENED!
YOU SAW IT WITH YOUR OWN EYES!

SEVEN MONTHS AGO, TRUMP AND THE GOP TRAITORS
TRIED TO OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES! 

Breaking News from the State Department: (Why isn’t Mike Pompeo in prison?)
A $5,800 bottle of Japanese whiskey gifted to former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo by the government of Japan in 2019 is missing. Pompeo said he never received the bottle of whiskey and had no idea it was missing, or what happened to the gift. Pompeo’s lawyer, William Burck, told the Wall Street Journal that the former secretary of state had “no recollection of receiving the bottle of whiskey and does not have any knowledge of what happened to it.”
Earlier this year, the State Department’s independent watchdog group, Project on Government Oversight, found that GOP Traitor and Trump stooge Pompeo and his wife Susan “violated federal ethics rules by making over 100 personal, non-work related requests to department employees” (including ordering gifts, booking salon appointments, and taking care of their family dog).

FIRE AND ARREST TRUMP STOOGE
AND GOP TRAITOR LOUIS DEJOY NOW!

Wednesday, July 28, 2021 -Taking the day off.
National Milk Chocolate Day!

7:10pm: Nothing happened today.
On The Menu:
Turkey and cheese sandwich for lunch. Sushi for dinner.
Spicy tuna cut roll, California roll, and a rainbow roll

8:35pm: We took a short nap after dinner with the dog.
We woke up and made an iced espresso. And we drank it.
Drink coffee. Drink Water.
Now we are watching the Tokyo 2020 Olympics on TV.

---

More athletes and staff tested positive for COVID-19 today.

9:55pm: We cut up a sweet and juicy watermelon and ate some too.
Watching the Olympics and surfing the interweb tonight.

USA! USA! USA! GO TEAM USA! TOKYO 2020 OLYMPICS!

11:00pm: Wednesday night recap of Wednesday. It was HOT.
The dogs got fed, and they went outside, and they had a great day.
We got dressed and drove the car to the Sushi restaurant and picked up dinner.
And that’s about the most exciting thing that happened here today.
The gardener came. The pool guy came. We slept most of the day away.

There was a pursuit in Fontana this afternoon,
but it was pretty much slow speed and stupid.
In the end the police pulled her out of the car. Suspect in custody.

And there was another pursuit late last night!
Guy on a moped/mini-bike went for a long ride with the police behind him,
even went the wrong way on the freeway,
until he ended up in Whittier Narrows park where he WIPED OUT
and ended up in the dirt. Suspect in custody.

Dusty Hill RIP (May 19, 1949 – July 27, 2021)
May the Four Winds blow him safely home.

Remembering the “Neenster” on the sixth anniversary of her final day on this world
which was actually the 25th-26th, so we are a couple days late….
She just sent us a message as a reminder, and she will never be forgotten.

And may her memory be a blessing!

Thursday, July 29, 2021 – the 210th day of the year
International Tiger Day!

12:20am: We took the dog outside.
We made and ate a “banana split” for a satisfying midnight dessert.

On The Menu: 2 scoops of Haagen-Daaz vanilla ice cream,
a small frozen banana (sliced), chocolate syrup, and whipped cream

4:02am: We are still awake. The dog is sleeping on the bed.
The other dogs are in the bedroom sleeping. It’s really quiet.
We slept all day and took a nap in the evening.
Our sleep cycle and sleep patterns are truly messed up.
Today is Thursday. “IS THIS A WEEKDAY?”

8:30am: We fell asleep with the dog after 5:00am.
We turned on a podcast, crawled into bed, and fell asleep.
We woke up around 7:15am.

---

Well, it seems someone was breaking into cars and prowling homes and yards down the street this morning around 4:00am while we were still awake in the Home Office. They never made it down to our end of the block, maybe because they were spooked by the newspaper delivery guy or maybe because the neighbors alerted. So we talked with a detective from the LAPD out in the street this morning. There was a Home Invasion the other night less than a mile away that made the TV news and the Citizen App, and there have been a few others in the mid-valley recently. A lot of local property crime, armed robberies, and violent crimes connected to the “unhoused” that live along Ventura Blvd and in the Sepulveda Reservoir. And organized gangs are back in the valley looking for targets and victims. Crime has been getting a lot worse in the San Fernando Valley recently. We chased a guy out of the driveway when he was trying to steal the Mercedes (that we were about to return the dealer) in November 2020 (read the previous Blog Post). And those guys were pros and probably connected to the construction crew working across the street, because we haven’t had any problems with sketchy characters since they finished, until last night.

There’s been an underground poker game running out of the house on the corner for a couple months, and there was a game the other night. Usually 20-30 nice cars parked on the cross street, and a “doorman” in the driveway, when they are playing at house. And that’s also the corner where the guys were prowling around last night. We live in a very  “crime-free” neighborhood for the most part, so we take notice of strangers and any criminal activity is cause for concern. The violent Home Invasions have a West LA LAPD TASK FORCE working on the investigation, so they were canvasing our street along with the regular West Valley Division detectives. FUCK. One more thing.

---

The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside.
We got the newspapers and made an iced espresso.
Drink Coffee. Drink Water. Be Vigilant.

9:35am: We just made another iced espresso and then
we left a message for the detective who left his card on our front door.

A Tsunami warning was issued for parts of Alaska this morning
after an earthquake with a magnitude of ~8.2 occurred off the coast.

11:15am: We took the dogs outside. We got the mail. The housekeeper is here.
And we are chilling’ with the dogs in the Home Office until she is finished.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

3:15pm: Well, we took a nap with the dogs. The housekeeper left.
We took the dogs outside. We made another iced espresso. It’s HOT out.
And it’s Thursday afternoon. We have to keep reminding ourself.

5:40pm: FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. (at 5:00pm again)
The dogs went outside. The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside.

Recapping Thursday night.
Chopped chicken salad delivered. Ate half, saved half.
Fell asleep. Woke up. Took the dog outside.

BOMBSHELL NEWS! 
Simone Biles, the US Gymnastic Champion, pulled out of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics event for mental health reasons (and physical health reasons because a mistake on the uneven bars, vault, or balance beam can be very bad). Most people applauded her decision and it’s now really big media news. Some people didn’t support her decision, and some even made jokes (like Michael Ché) and now they’re the target of American “cancel culture”.
And then US Gymnast Suni Lee won the Gold Medal and became our newest “American Hero”.

---

12:30am: Time for dinner.
We had leftover salad, so we used it for tacos.
On The Menu: 2 chicken chopped salad tacos

9:05am: We were up all morning and fell asleep around dawn.
And then we woke up.
The dogs went outside. The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside.
We drank an iced espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.
We took a shower. We got dressed.

10:30am: We ran a couple errands. We went to our PO Box.
We went to the bank, and we went inside.
We contacted one masked person behind thick acrylic, the teller.
It’s a beautiful day in the SFV and it’s going to be HOT again.
We drove home. We got undressed.
And now we’re wearing our sweat shorts again.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

7:40pm: Recapping Friday. Good Shabbos! It was HOT today.
We ate a little green jello with whipped cream. Then we took a nap.
We slept all afternoon. The dogs got fed and went outside.
We made an iced espresso.

It’s Friday night again. Another weekend for a week without end.
Seriously, what the F*CK? And how is it the END OF JULY already?
Tempus fugit. Time flies.

On The Menu: Cubano sandwich with garlic chicken, dill pickle, avocado,
carrot and celery sticks, watermelon, and cherries for dinner,

Saturday, July 31, 2021 – the last day of July!

Where were you on this day in 1983?
Grateful Dead at the Ventura County Fairgrounds

10:11am: One more Saturday morning.
We were awake until after 6:00am this morning.
We drank an iced espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.
We ate a quesadilla with avocado and salsa verde.
We woke up at 9:30am. And we need a nap already.
The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside.
10:40am: The newspapers and the mail made it inside.
We made an iced espresso and took the dogs outside again.
Now we’re chillin’ with the dogs in the Home Office
and we managed to fall down a Blues Brothers rabbit hole this morning.

“Briefcase Full of Blues” is the debut album by The Blues Brothers.
It was released on November 28, 1978, by Atlantic Records.
It was recorded live on September 9, 1978, at the Universal Amphitheatre
in Los Angeles, when the band opened for comedian Steve Martin.

THE “Good Ole” BLUES BROTHERS BAND!
Steve “The Colonel” Cropper, Matt “Guitar” Murphy (RIP), Donald “Duck” Dunn (RIP), Willie “Too Big” Hall, Elwood, “Joliet” Jake (RIP), Murphy Dunne, Tom “Bones” Malone, Alan “Mister Fabulous” Rubin (RIP), and “Blue” Lou Marini. With a special shoutout to Paul “the Shiv” Schaffer!

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

3:30pm: We took a nap with the dogs. We woke up.
We took the dogs outside and got a glass of juice.
And we just took the dogs outside again. And it is HOT.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

5:35pm: We took another nap with the dog. And we just woke up.
The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside. We ordered a pizza delivery.
On The Menu: Extra-large pizza with sausage and meatball delivered!

9:00pm: And suddenly, we are not stressed anymore.

We drank an iced espresso. We entertained ourself with YouTube vids.
Now we’re chillin’ in the Home Office.

Watching the Bertcast with Bert Kreischer on Youtube:

And we watched the film “Outlaws” on a Showtime network,
about a violent Australian motorcycle gang named The Copperheads.
AND WHY DID WE WATCH IT? WHY?
We wanted to see how bad it was going to be. And it was bad.
It was gritty and raw, (and really bad and boring too) with some good acting.
It was a lot more real than “Sons of Anarchy” which we enjoyed.
And it was almost “Cinema Verité”, shot like real life,
but really it was just amateur (headache-inducing) camera work.

Friday, July 23, 2021
Leo (July 23-August 23)

USA! USA! USA! GO TEAM USA! TOKYO 2020 OLYMPICS!

“People live one generation, your life lives for generations after,
your name lives on forever.” – Yakuza tattoo

3:05am: So, we are still awake. We have been watching YouTube vids.
Maybe watching some TV too. It’s Friday morning now.
We are tired, so might be time for bed.

8:20am: We finally went to bed around 5:00am. And we didn’t sleep well.
We just woke up and we’re going back to bed soon….
The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside. We made an iced espresso.
Drink Coffee. Drink Water.

We watched the end of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics Opening Ceremony.
OMG IT WAS SO BORING. No audience in the stadium. SO BORING!
Jazzy piano instrumental. 50 Pictographs and an unsteady-cam….
Kabuki theatre performance….REALLY? And there were fireworks too.
GAVE US A HEADACHE IMMEDIATELY. Shaky camera and jump cut moves.
NBC just sucked this morning. And the NBC hosts suck too.

NOTE: If there is a Mike Lindell MyPillow commercial on during a show….
we will CHANGE THE CHANNEL. We are done watching your program.

10:05am: WE MUST MOTIVATE! We tried to go back to bed, but no luck.
We’ve spent the last 2 hours doing nothing. And we’re watching “Top Chef”.
And it’s making us hungry for breakfast.

11:30am: We drank another iced espresso.
We reheated and ate three slices of leftover pizza for brunch.
We drank a glass of cran-raspberry-orange juice.

12:40pm: We need to run errands. MUST GET DRESSED.

5:10pm: Back in our “lounge wear” and barefoot at home.
It was FUCKING HOT TODAY. Really HOT out.
Recapping the afternoon. We got dressed and went out at 2:00pm.
We ran errands. We went to the bank. We skipped the Post Office.
We came home. We took the dogs outside.

What’s cooking?

We ventured into GW today and found a 50th anniversary copy
in almost new and unused condition for $2.25. Score.
(it was originally $2.99, but it was 25% off this week)
Paid cash. Left them the penny. No receipt required.

6:00pm: We almost fell asleep. FUCK.
The dogs got fed. The dogs barked. The dogs went outside.
We just ordered Thai food delivery for dinner…. estimated 45 mins.

The food was delivered on time. GOOD SHABBOS!

On The Menu: Thai food! BBQ chicken combo w/pad Thai noodles & vegetables,
BBQ rib combo w/fried rice & salad, and chicken satay w/peanut sauce
NOTE: We’re good customers, so they sent us some FREE egg rolls too.

Recapping Friday night. We ate and fell asleep. We woke up around 10:00pm and spent the night watching TV and surfing the interweb. We also worked on Blog Posts and played with the dogs. We fell asleep sometime before dawn.

STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME!
ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT.
WEARAFUCKING(DOUBLE)MASK! WEARAFUCKING(DOUBLE)MASK!

8:00am: One more Saturday. We woke up before 6:00am.
We just published last week’s Blog Post (our previous Blog Post)
We drank a cup of espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.
We ate the leftover salad from last night with a little ranch dressing.

And then we just finished binge-watching the “Top Chef” finale
(Portland season 18) and the “Last Chance Kitchen” final episodes.
Such a great show and concept. And after 18 seasons it’s still great.
The chefs (the competitors, hosts, and the guest judges) are CHARACTERS!
The story line, editing, emotion, and the format make for exciting episodes.
SUCH AMAZING FOOD! Creative cooking ideas! Always makes us hungry.
And the winner is…. no, we won’t spoil it.

9:00am: We drank another cup of espresso.

Shit in the front hall
One more unsolved mystery
Which dog did the deed?

11:30am: FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. Just a little more drama.
With pet ownership comes great responsibility.
AND THAT’S ALL WE ARE GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT TODAY.

Dog Days of Summer in Los Angeles

We were invited to dinner tonight. At a public restaurant in a busy part of town.
AND WE SAID “NO THANK YOU” and explained why…. CORONAVIRUS.
COVID-19 Delta Variant. “Breakthrough” virus. Public spaces. Public Restaurant.
Also said they shouldn’t be going out in public, and their kids shouldn’t too.
THERE IS ALREADY A PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY. Not going to go there.
We ran errands yesterday and encountered people not wearing masks,
even though the “mask mandate” is back in effect for Los Angeles. SCARY.
AND SO MANY UNVACCINATED PEOPLE. That anxiety about strangers is back.

STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME!
ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT.
WEARAFUCKING(DOUBLE)MASK! WEARAFUCKING(DOUBLE)MASK!

DO YOU TRUST THE GOVERNMENT? WHO DO YOU TRUST?
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH CONFLICTING INFORMATION?
ARE YOU FULLY VACCINATED? (If not, WTF aren’t you fully vaccinated?)
After 16 months in isolation, we really want to get out!
We want to travel. We want to party. We want to hang out with out friends.
We are fully vaccinated. And we almost felt safe for a couple weeks….
AND NOW WE DON’T FEEL SAFE
and WE DON’T TRUST THE GOVERNMENT.

We continue to advise our readers to limit their exposure.
STAY THE FUCK HOME! WEAR A FUCKING MASK!
DO NOT TRAVEL! ZERO CONTACT! SOCIAL DISTANCE!
DO NOT EAT, DRINK, OR SOCIALIZE WITH STRANGERS!
(you do not know who is and who isn’t vaccinated or infected)

2:45pm: We ate a slice of cold leftover pizza and reheated a leftover egg roll.
We took a nap. We woke up and made an iced espresso.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

10:0pm: Recapping Saturday afternoon, evening and night now.
We hung with the dogs all day. We watched the Olympics.
We watched YouTube vids and TV too. We wasted another Saturday.
We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.
We ate four slices of leftover pizza for dinner and drank another iced espresso.
Then we fell asleep. And we just woke up again. The dogs went outside again.

11:40pm: The neighbors are having a noisy backyard party again.
So, we went outside and yelled at them. And then we went dark.

Watching the Las Vegas Livestreams on Saturday night.
Vloggers we follow on YouTube:
Coolist, BrorFredrik, JacobsLifeInLasVegas, NotLeavingLasVegas,
Pompsie, TurnItUpWorld, Wonderhussy, YellowProductions
(and there are more that we don’t regularly watch)

Please support the (non-profit) Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas!

Jackie Mason RIP age 93
HE WAS A TRUMP SUPPORTER, and so we say good riddance.
NOTE: We wanted to remember him fondly,
but anyone who supports Trump is an enemy of the people.

Vaccines don’t stop you from spreading the virus!
Vaccines may protect you from getting really sick,
and may prevent death if you contract COVID-19.
YOU CAN STILL GET SICK AND DIE.
YOU CAN STILL SUFFER FROM LONG-TERM EFFECTS.
YOU CAN STILL GET OTHER PEOPLE SICK.

COVID-19 is still the leading cause of death in the United States.
611000+ Reported Deaths in the United States from COVID-19 as of today.
64265+ Reported Deaths in California from COVID-19 as of today
53235+ Reported Deaths in New York from COVID-19 as of today
(these are the reported numbers, the true numbers are much higher)

NOTE: THERE IS ANOTHER REPORT THAT COVID-19 NUMBERS
IN THE US MAY HAVE BEEN UNDER-REPORTED BY AS MUCH AS 60%!
The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation
reports the number of COVID-19 DEATHS in the US at more than 900000
(that’s 57% higher than the official data according to their analysis)

WARNING! The Delta Variant is spreading!
It was previously known as the “Indian variant”
First detected in India last October and now spreading in more than 40 countries!

THE UNITED STATES WILL CONTINUE THE CURRENT TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS.
The CDC now advises Americans against travel to the United Kingdom!
The Department of Veterans Affairs will require healthcare workers to get COVID-19 vaccines.

Talk to a clergy member, counselor, or your healthcare provider.

Friday, July 16, 2021 – World Snake Day!

On this day in 1969, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins
launched aboard Apollo 11 (July 16–24, 1969), the first spaceflight
with the objective of landing humans on the Moon.
On July 21, 1969, Armstrong became the first man to walk on the lunar surface,
at 02:56 UTC, and Aldrin became the second man 19 minutes later.

1:35am: We ate and watched episode 8 of “The Mandalorian”.
And now we’re watching episode 9…… it’s a “Deadwood” reunion!

2:30am: We took the dogs outside.
And now they’re back in the Home Office with us.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

7:20am: Okay, we slept, but it wasn’t good sleep. We woke up.
We made a double iced espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.
We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

12:05pm: And we’re awake again. We fell asleep and slept. It was good.
But now it’s noon. It’s a beautiful day outside. We got the newspapers.
We took the dogs outside. And now we’re updating this Blog Post.

NOTE: When we took the dogs outside, we noticed that the water in the swimming pool was very low. So we turned on the water from the hose and put it in the pool. And then for the next 20 minutes we kept chanting “Pool Water” so we wouldn’t let it run all day long. And we just went back outside and turned it off. Good job!

A sunny Friday Afternoon in mid-July.

The stature of Confederate General Robert E. Lee
was finally removed from Charlotte, North Carolina, today.

BLACKLIVESMATTER!

1:20pm: We made another iced espresso. We ate some dry salami.

“How’s the weather in your neck of the woods?”
It’s Summertime in the San Fernando Valley and Southern California:

There was a pursuit.

10:30pm: Chore Boy showed up and vacuumed. He did some laundry too.
We gave the little boy a bath with baking soda, because he’s been itching.
We ordered a pizza delivery.

On The Menu: Extra-large pizza with sausage and meatball. Good Shabbos!

Saturday, July 17, 2021 – Happy 66th Birthday Disneyland!
On this day in 1955, DISNEYLAND OPENED TO THE PUBLIC!

“To all who come to this happy place; welcome. Disneyland is your land.
Here age relives fond memories of the past…and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America…with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.” – Walt Disney’s Disneyland Opening Day Speech

12:15am: We fell asleep after pizza for an hour. And then we woke up.
We took the dogs outside. And now we’re all chillin’ in the Home Office

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

8:45am: We are awake. We woke up early (around 6:00am).
We prepped the dog’s food. We folded some laundry.
We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.
We got the newspapers. We drank an iced espresso.
Now we are chillin’ in the Home Office and the dogs are sleeping.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

2:35pm: We went back to bed and slept. We woke up.
We took the dogs outside. They went back to sleep.
We are awake. And we are hungry now.
We took the dogs outside again. And now they’re sleeping again.
We drank another iced espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.

4:35pm: We got the mail.
Our regular postman must be on vacation, because our mail is coming late in the day,
instead of in the morning, so the substitute must be doing the route in reverse. Kinda sucks. And it’s HOT outside, and it’s noticeable just going from the door to the mailbox at 4:30pm. We ate two pieces of cold leftover pizza. And all is quiet on the Home Front and in the neighborhood.

5:45pm: It’s currently 83 degrees outside.
We just prepped the dogs food for supper.
We made a double iced espresso.

6:30pm: We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs.
We took the dogs outside. And now we’re back in the Home Office.
Watching “The Grand Ole Opry” on the internet on Saturday evening.
Whisperin’ Bill Anderson’s 60th Anniversary as a member!
With Vince Gill, and some good country music.

“Hey, Saturday Night!”

–

There was a guy dancing on top of Knott’s Berry Farm tonight!

“At approximately 7:23pm, Knott’s Berry Farm became aware of a male who had accessed a unauthorized area and climbed the Supreme Scream tower. Park personnel alerted local law enforcement and emergency responders who are now on site. The guest descended the tower at 8:55pm and is now currently safely on the ground in police custody. No other information is available at this time. The safety of our guests is always our top priority.”

On The Menu: 2 pieces of cold leftover pizza for dinner around 10:30pm.
And we scrounged around in the fridge after midnight for some stuff to eat.
Dry salami, dill pickle, toasted croissant, and some trail mix.

11:59pm: The “NEW MASK REQUIRED INDOORS”
(regardless of vaccination status) is now in effect in Los Angeles County!

Sunday, July 18, 2021 – SUNDAY! SUNDAY!
It’s the 199th day of the year,
and as of today, there are 166 days until 2022.

Happy Birthday Hunter Stockton Thompson! RIP
Born July 18, 1937, Louisville, Kentucky
Died (self inflicted gun shot) February 20, 2005, Woody Creek, Colorado.

2:20am: We’re still awake on Sunday Morning (Saturday night continued)
2:50am: And we’re still awake.

Do you believe in astrological horoscopes?
Here’s ours for today:
“Your home routine will be interrupted.
A small appliance might break down or a minor breakage could occur.
Perhaps someone unexpected will knock on your door?”

4:20am: Yep, still awake.
5:05am: We took the dogs outside. Now they’re sleeping in the bedroom.

JoshWillTravel: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

11:05am: We crashed hard as the sun was rising. And we slept until 10:30am.
We woke up. We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.
We made an iced espresso. Drink Coffee. Drink Water.
We got the newspapers. Morning stuff is done.

2:00pm: We took the dogs outside again. It’s really HOT. And really bright.
And so we are chillin’ in the Home Office with the dogs on Sunday afternoon.
TV and the interweb again. Staying entertained.
3:00pm: We made an iced espresso. We ate a piece of poundcake.
4:50pm: We took a little nap. We woke up.
We ate two pieces of cold leftover pizza.

7:30pm: We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.
We took a little nap. We woke up, and the dogs are sleeping.

11:11pm: We took the dogs outside again. We made one more iced espresso.

Read our previous Blog Posts about Coffee!

And now let’s talk about that horoscope…. nothing broke, thank you. BUT:
Our step-sister and her family stopped by on the way back from San Francisco.
They had taken our SUV on the weekend road trip, and left their car at the house.
We also received a special package for them yesterday that they picked up tonight.
LA to SF – there and back. That’s a lot of driving for a weekend in San Francisco.
So, it wasn’t unexpected, but we didn’t know when they would be coming back.
So they showed up at 10:00pm, we took care of the business, they switched cars,
got the package, we chatted for a while and then they drove away.
And so my “Home Routine” of doing nothing on Sunday night was interrupted.
Take it for what it’s worth.

• And now it’s Monday morning….. Have a nice day.

We slept for an hour and woke up and took the dog outside.
The dogs went outside. The dogs got fed. We got the newspapers.

11:50pm: We ate a little ice cream and then a frozen banana with chocolate sauce.
That’s our dinner. And we took the Big Dog outside. And now he’s chillin’ here.

Sunday, July 11, 2021 – It’s 7-11 Day!

7-Eleven, Inc. is an American international chain of convenience stores,
headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
The chain was founded in 1927 as an ice house storefront in Dallas.
It was named Tote’m Stores between 1928 and 1946.- wikipedia
The name was changed in 1946 to “7-Eleven” because of their new
extended hours: 7:00am – 11:00pm, seven days a week.

12:35am: And now it’s after midnight. It’s Sunday morning. It’s 7-11-21.

5:36am: We watched “The Tomorrow War” on Prime this morning. Twice.
CGI and computer graphics have come a long way. It was pretty f*ckin’ cool.

7:00am: The dogs started barking before 6:00am. So we didn’t sleep.

11:55am: We took the dogs outside. The dogs got fed. We went back to bed.
We woke up and went back to bed. We slept. We woke up and made BRUNCH.

On The Menu: 2 Hotdogs with mustard, cheese and chopped onion, dill pickle,
1/2 an avocado, potato chips, and an iced espresso to drink

12:45pm: After brunch and noon now.

3:35pm: We took a short nap. We took the dogs outside. It’s HOT.
We’re chilling’ with the dogs in the Home Office.

On The Menu: BBQ Chicken and bacon chopped salad
with avocado and ranch dressing for dinner.

Sunday night recap. Nothing happened.
We surfed the interweb and watched TV. Listened to podcasts.
And then we fell asleep early.

Tuesday, July 13, 2021 – DO NOT TRAVELTUESDAY!

Happy birthday Woody Guthrie!
Happy birthday Cheech Marin!

On this day in 1985, the LIVE AID concerts were held in Philadelphia and London
to raise money to “Feed The World” and provide starvation relief in Ethiopia.
We were on the beach at the Grateful Dead concert in Ventura.

3:05am: We ate some Grater’s Ice Cream at 3AM!
(Chocolate Chip and Double Chocolate Chip)

8:40am: And we’re awake again. We slept a little. There were dogs barking.
We woke up and didn’t really get back to sleep. And now we’re awake.

9:25am: We made a double iced espresso.
And it’s raining outside! Well, drizzling or sprinkling.
WATER IS FALLING FROM THE SKY! And some of it is reaching the ground.

10:50am: Well, it stopped “raining” but it’s still gray out.
Reminds us of a Marin County Summer morning, the color, the temp, the humidity.
We took the dog outside. We played with the dog. We’re chillin’ on Tuesday.

12:30pm: We took a short unplanned nap with the dog…. and now we’re up again.
We took the dog outside. And we took the dog outside again.

The Emmy Nominations were announced today in Hollywood.
We know someone nominated. He was on KTLA with Sam Rubin this morning.

Disneyland’s “Jungle Cruise” got a remodel during the pandemic closure.
All the controversial scenes (with the African natives) have been changed.
The classic Adventureland theme park ride re-opens this week.

4:30pm: We took a shower.

6:00pm: We have company! Real live people in the house today.
Family visiting from a FOREIGN COUNTRY! Unmasked and personal!
Hugs, handshakes, hor d’oeuvres…. and we’re going to have dinner.
A LITTLE TOO WEIRD. They are tested and vaccinated, but it’s weird.
Our step-sister and her husband and children are here.
They are from the Czech Republic.
And they’re driving to San Francisco tomorrow. Not what we would do….
We advised them to take the 101 north, and not Interstate 5, or Highway 1,
because of the Central Valley heat, the scenery and nice places to stop on US 101,
and the truck traffic on the 5 freeway and tourist traffic on Highway 1.

US 101 will take you through the city of San Francisco and across
the Golden Gate Bridge, through Marin County, and all the way to Oregon.

California Interstate 5 to 580 and across the Bay Bridge into San Francisco.

NOTE: The tolls are on the 580 going west into the city at the Bay Bridge.
There is NO TOLL on the Golden Gate Bridge going north, leaving the city.

7:50pm: First Family Dinner in 16 months.
On The Menu: Cornish game hen, stuffing, corn on the cob, salad,
and watermelon, with cran-raspberry-orange juice to drink

8:20pm: Well my step-sister’s son is 12 and he can shred on the guitar.
Kid is jammin’ tunes on an acoustic Gibson, but he says he plays electric.
We bought him a new Ibanez electric guitar with all the bells and whistles.
He says he plays by ear when we recommend a YouTube site: JDarks
with guitar tabs and instruction.
Would love to have him do “reaction vids” as he discovers new music!

9:25pm: We sat him down and showed him a couple “old school” YouTube vids.
Then they served the ice cream and we were done with the music lesson.
And so we enjoyed some ice cream for dessert too.
We gave them some travel tips for their trip to San Francisco.
And they just left the house. It was fun to see them and sort of play uncle….
(we like kids when we can give them back) and it’s been three years.

“San Francisco’s Cable Cars Will Be Free to Ride When They Come Back in August”
So they won’t be riding the cable cars this week. They were closed for the pandemic.
But they announced the return of the Cable Cars today, and they’ll be FREE for a month.

California’s Governor Gavin Newsom, who is now being recalled,
announced all kinds of good stuff today: Rent subsidies. Grants for small business.
All kinds of other money for people. Hallelujah!

10:29pm: And all is quiet now. Everyone is gone and the dogs are napping.

BREAKING NEWS: 17 MILLION GALLONS OF UNTREATED SEWAGE
WAS RELEASED INTO THE OCEAN ONE MILE OFF OF EL SEGUNDO
ON SUNDAY NIGHT! THE LOS ANGELES BEACHES ARE TOTALLY POLLUTED!

Well, at least they’re cleaning up the Homeless Encampments on Venice Beach.
Could take a couple months, and the Homeless problem isn’t going away.
They’re going to make Mayor Garcetti the new Ambassador to India….
(Okay, we just can’t do Garcetti this morning – HE IS SUCH AN ASSHOLE!)

WARNING! COVID-19 (Delta Variant) CASES ARE INCREASING AGAIN!

CV! Part 176 – PTSD WEEKEND! (Fri-Sat-Sun)

CV! Part 176 – PTSD WEEKEND! (Friday-Saturday-Sunday)

John McAfee RIP…. Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself.
McAfee “committed suicide” in a Spanish prison? REALLY?
Is it a conspiracy theory if the victim predicts his own death?
NOTE: It already appears that the mainstream media is just going to bury the story.
DO YOU TRUST THE US GOVERNMENT TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH?

Was he an “Enemy of the State” or did he just know too much about certain people?
And what about Jeffrey Epstein? And the Deutsche Bank Banker? Suicides? Really?

Friday, June 25, 2021 – It’s the Last Friday of the Month!

It’s Anthony Bourdain Day! Today would have been his 65th birthday. The celebrity chef, author, world traveler, and TV personality killed himself on June 8, 2018.

On this day in 1876, Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer FAILED.
The 7th United States Cavalry was defeated by Sioux and Cheyenne Warriors at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in the Montana Territory (aka “Custer’s Last Stand”).
There were 268 dead and 55 severely wounded U.S. soldiers (and others) when the battle was over.

4:55am: It’s Friday morning! Have a nice day.

It’s the weekend.
Not that anything is any different from the rest of the week.
It’s going to be HOT here, maybe 100 degrees on Sunday.

7:35am: And we took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs. We took the dogs outside.

Remember that cow that went missing after they escaped from the slaughterhouse?
They found it yesterday morning in Whittier Narrows park.
OKAY, WTF? Diane Warren (Hollywood Elite) is going to pay to send it to a sanctuary.
And a bunch of a**holes are now protesting outside the meatpacking plant,
because they want the other 38 cows to be “pardoned” instead of becoming steaks.
Seriously, fuciking cows and people protesting meat are big news in Los Angeles……..
And MORE Britney Spears court news…

RECORD HEAT! EXTEME DROUGHT! “We’re having a heat wave.”

Be glad you’re not in southern Oregon or the Pacific Northwest this week!
But seriously, it’s going to be dangerously HOY in a lot of places. so STAY COOL!
Take care of your family, friends, and pets. Young and elderly people are most at risk.

Tokyo 2020 2021 update.

The XXXII Olympiad (Summer Olympic Games)
is still currently scheduled for July 23 – August 8.
The Olympics were postponed for the first time in history in 2020.
There are 33 sports and 339 events scheduled at 42 venues.
NO ALCOHOL WILL BE SOLD!
Attendance at events will. be limited to 50% of venue capacity.
Foreign visitors (from 159 countries) are banned and are not allowed to attend.
Organizers will not not be giving condoms to athletes in the Olympic Village.
Athletes don’t have to be vaccinated. Participants will be tested daily.
A poll in the Asahi Shimbun newspaper showed
80% of the population want the Olympics cancelled or postponed.
And the newspaper also wants the IOC and the organizers to cancel the games.
Japanese Emperor Naruhito also thinks it’s a bad idea.

12:30pm: We took the dog outside. We had to do some grooming too.
We played with the dog. We loved the dog. We love the little boy.
Now he’s napping next to us in the Home Office.

On The Menu: Fresh strawberries and whipped cream
with a slice of banana bread and an iced espresso to drink

8:40pm: GOOD SHABBOS! It’s Friday Night! TGIF. Well. whatever.

The dogs got fed and went outside. And they were dogs all day long.
We did nothing. We might have taken a nap. Yeah, we might have.
We did nothing. It’s Friday. It’s the weekend. It’s the end of June already.
We drank iced espresso. We enjoyed the air conditioning. It was HOT out.

dill pickle, avocado, carrots & celery sticks, pita chips, strawberries,

4:20pm: We’ve been chillin’ with the dog, because it’s 100 degrees out.

We drank another iced espresso.

We just ordered sushi for pickup. Have a great Saturday night!-

On The Menu: Sushi on Saturday!
Spicy tuna cut roll, California roll, Rainbow roll, and eel & avocado roll.
And a coke to drink.

NOTE: We got dressed and drove to the restaurant.
We talked to the staff (our friends) at the restaurant and drove home.
We ate dinner while watching LIVE MUSIC on the desktop.

There was a pursuit that ended when the guy hit the barrier between the carpool lane and the freeway head-on at high speed. He destroyed the truck in a spectacular wreck, spun out, rolled it, and landed in the carpool lanes. Then he crawled out of the wreckage (unhurt) and surrendered to the Highway Patrol. Yeah Saturday Night!

It’s a free service to ANYONE: teens, adults, etc. who lives in the U.S. It’s run by The Crisis Text Line and is legit.

Seek immediate help if you feel overwhelmed or unsafe!
If you, or someone you know, are feeling overwhelmed with emotions like sadness, depression, or anxiety, or feel like you want to harm yourself or others, get professional help immediately!
If your distress impacts your daily life for any length of time (a couple days or many weeks), talk to a clergy member, counselor, or healthcare provider.

And now back to SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

12:10am: And we fell asleep after dinner…. and woke up around 10:00pm.
We took the dog outside. And now we’re back in the Home Office.

5:15am: We slept a little. We woke up around 4:00am.
We took the dog outside and made a cup of espresso.

NATIONAL SUNGLASSES DAY!

I study nuclear science, I love my classes
I got a crazy teacher, he wears dark glasses
Things are going great, and they’re only getting better
I’m doing all right, getting good grades
The future’s so bright, I gotta wear shades

BUY AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS!
BOYCOTT PRODUCTS MADE IN CHINA AND MEXICO!

It also used to be NATIONALHANDSHAKE DAY, but that was before COVID-19.

6:20am: A couple of raccoons were just fighting in the trees in the backyard!
The dogs went nuts and started barking. The coons were hissing and squealing.
We got to watch them fight and shake the trees. RACCOONS ARE REALLY NASTY!
So there was a little excitement already today.

8:20am: We took the dogs outside. We fed the dogs.
The little girl isn’t eating her food for the second day…. and we’re a little worried..
We took the dogs outside again and made a double espresso with whipped cream.

NATIONAL ONION DAY and NATIONAL ORANGE BLOSSOM DAY.

1:20pm: We had the dogs in the Home Office and now they’re in the bedroom.
We just ate a toasted cheese sandwich and we made an iced espresso to drink.
And it is AFRICA HOT outside today.
And it’s going to be HOT in the SFV all week long.

NATIONAL BOMB POP DAY and NATIONAL ICE CREAM CAKE DAY!
“I scream! You scream! We all scream, for ice cream!”

10:50pm: Recapping our Sunday. Nothing happened.
The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside.
We didn’t eat dinner. We fell asleep around 8:00pm!
We just woke up and ate a handful of grapes.
And we decided to update this Blog Post.

NATIONAL HIV TESTING DAY – HAVE YOU BEEN TESTED?
“Take the Test, Take Control.”
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends a HIV test
as part of a routine physical for everyone age 13-64. 
NOTE: The CDC recommends testing at least once per year.
Sexually active people should test more frequently depending on their risk factors.

We stand with all our LGBTQ friends! June is Pride Month.

HAPPINESS IS A FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN GOAL! BE HAPPY TODAY!
The three key aspects that will lead to our well-being and happiness:
an end to poverty, a reduction of inequality, and the protection of our planet.

Be thankful. Be grateful.
Be kind to each other – love one another – support everyone*.
Peace and Love!

CV! Part 155 – Oscar Weekend! (Saturday-Sunday-Monday)

Saturday, April 24, 2021 – Saturday!

4:20am: We slept for a few hours and then we woke up early, before 4:00am.

8:45am: We went back to bed.
The dogs got fed, the dogs went outside.
We drank a cup of espresso.

We watched “History Detectives” – an episode we’ve seen before on Rock and Roll stuff.
It features Bob Dylan’s Fender guitar from Newport ’65, a couple of Beatles’ autographs, and a Frank Zappa art piece. Great episode.

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!
–
–
The 2012 episode found out that the airplane pilot’s daughter had the guitar in New Jersey, and after a legal battle, she sold the Stratocaster at auction. Indianapolis Colts owner and Rock and Roll collector, Jim Irsay bought Dylan’s Newport guitar in 2013 for $965,000.

Irsay also bought Jerry Garcia’s one-of-a-kind “Tiger” guitar, made by Doug Irwin, at auction for $957,000 in 2002, and spent Five Million Dollars on some of David Gilmore’s guitars when they were auctioned for charity a few years ago. He has an amazing collection.

8:15am: Sunday morning. Dogs got fed. Dogs went outside.

We went back to bed and slept for a little bit. And then there was barking…..
We took the dogs outside. And now we are fully chill. But we are hungry too.
Choreboy is about to arrive, and now there’s some stuff to do around the house.

So, Choreboy did two loads of laundry and scooped all the poop.
He cleaned out the fridge, which was already pretty empty.
And then he did some dishes. He’ll be back tomorrow most likely for more.
It’s cold, and gray, and windy outside today.
We ate a toasted egg bagel with peanut butter and raspberry jam for lunch.

MUSIC WAS LIVE AND OFF THE HOOK!
Delta bumper – “air travel provided by”  
Senovva bumper – LED Walls “provided by”
And it pretty much sucked, and wasn’t very entertaining.
If we weren’t blogging it. We would have turned it off at the beginning.
No surprises. And not very exciting. Just pretty standard awards format,
with the usual COVID-19 adjustments, Nice that there was live audience, but it was STUPID and NO MASKS just sets a bad example for the public and will probably affect PUBLIC HEALTH. But, hey, lots of commercials, and lots of DIVERSITY. See Oscar isn’t so white…..
YEAH RIGHT. Alright, we’re done . That sucked. It’s going to be a ratings disaster tomorrow.
The dogs are sleeping here in the Home Office and we are hungry for dinner. 

8:22pm: “Oscars After Dark” following the Oscars. ABC is so damn DIVERSE!

Trent Reznor, Jon Baptiste, and Atticus “After Dark”

---

9:20pm: We stopped, took the dogs outside,
and then went into the kitchen and made dinner.
And it’s drizzling a little outside. They said it might rain and they were right.

On The Menu: Breakfast for Dinner! Breakfast Burrito!
2 eggs over easy, bacon, and a quesadilla with salsa verde 

We took the dogs outside again. And then they fell asleep.
And then we fell asleep…..

NO END TO THIS BULLSH*T. NO END IN SIGHT.
WE WON’T BE AT YOUR PARTY ON SUNDAY NIGHT!
ZERO CONTACT IS STILL THE RULE!
DO YOU THINK THAT I’M A FOOL?
DO NOT PARTY! AND HERE’S WHY:
IF YOU PARTY, YOU MIGHT DIE!

NOTE: We stayed the fuck home, and watched the Academy Awards’ Train Wreck.

---

Okay, here’s one for #StorySunday (on Monday):
Way back in the mid 1980s, we started gambling in Reno, Lake Tahoe and Las Vegas. And then we started working in the Hollywood film industry in 1989, and we met Frankie Valli and a old school “Friend of Frank’s” comedian named Joey Villa. Joey was friends with Meshulam Riklis and his wife Pia Zadora. Riklis was a corporate raider who bought the Riviera in 1973. Our friend Joey was booking the comedy room at the Riviera and also appearing in the “Splash” Revue stage show for many years, so when we visited him in Las Vegas in 1991, it was all VIP fun and a big party with Perry Como in the Penthouse. It was Old School Vegas, with real mobsters, and black tie glamour, at the Riv. “And now it’s all gone” They blew it up and tore it down, and now it’s a parking lot for the expanded LV Convention Center. Vegas just eats its own. So, we have a matching set of souvenir Riviera mugs, and ashtrays, and matches and even mini shampoo bottles from the many hotel stays. And sometimes we stayed next door at the El Morrocco/La Concha Motel or at another Strip hotel. And so we found this mug when thrifting, right before they announced the closing and demolished the hotel in 2015. We have so many crazy Las Vegas stories. They moved the Crazy Girls bronze statue to Planet Hollywood, so you can still see rub their butts for good luck. (if you’re interested you can read more about Las Vegas, the Riviera, and Joey Villa in our previous JoshWillTravel Blog Posts)

Monday, April 26, 2021 – PINK SUPERMOON TONIGHT (8:32pm PST)
Full Moon is named for the Spring bloom of the pink wildflower native to eastern North America: Phlox subulata (creeping phlox or moss phlox), also called “moss pink”

2:50am: Hello Monday morning, we’re up early. We fell asleep with the dogs for a little bit.
Not sure how long. It’s too early. So, we thought we’d update this Blog Post…. 

4:45am: Two hours later. And we decided to try to watch Disney/PIXAR’s “Soul” again.
Bob Dylan’s “Subterranean Homesick Blues”
Mystics Without Borders and Moonwind Stardancer on the brink of madness!
NOTE: “Soul” was great. It was beautiful. And it had a great Disney ending.

11:55pm: Recapping Monday. Nothing happened.
We didn’t mean to take the day off, but it happened.
The dogs got fed. The dogs went outside. We got the newspapers and the mail.
The housekeeper came. We took a nap with the dogs. We drank espresso.
Drink coffee. Drink water.
It was a nice day outside. And now it’s overcast and drizzling a littlest midnight.
We ate a toasted bagel with cream cheese for lunch. And we just made dinner.
On The Menu: Mac’n’cheese just before midnight (and we are done now)

DO NOT TRAVEL! STAY HOME AND STAY HEALTHY!
Do not go to movie theaters, musical performances, shopping malls,
dance parties, sporting events, Las Vegas, or any kind of public gathering!

TAKE this for what it is…. CONTRADICTORY!
ZERO CONTACT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE SAFE!
If you can still infect someone and catching COVID-19 is still possible, and you should keep wearing your mask, because herd immunity is still far away…..2022.
HOW IS IT OKAY TO VISIT WITH FAMILY & FRIENDS (in small groups without masks)?

STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME!

“Mask Up America” is President Joe Biden’s “100 Day Masking Challenge”

US Surgeon General recommends:
Wearing two masks can improve fit & give you better protection from COVID19.
Wear a disposable mask under a cloth mask.

THE MASK GOES OVER YOUR NOSE!
YOUR NOSE AND MOUTH ARE CONNECTED!
COVER YOUR NOSE AND MOUTH!

*FULLY VACCINATED means TWO WEEKS after the second dose! 
You are not fully vaccinated after the first dose,

If you or someone you know is having suicidal thoughts, get help right away!
Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-TALK (800-273-8255) to reach a trained counselor and press 1 to reach the Veterans Crisis Line.

CV! Part 133 – ONE YEAR! (Friday)

CV! Part 133 – ONE YEAR! (Friday)
WE ARE ALL “SAFER-AT-HOME”
DO NOT TRAVEL! STAY HOME AND STAY HEALTHY! ZERO CONTACT!
WEAR A (DOUBLE) MASK! WASH YOUR HANDS! CLEAN AND SANITIZE!

“Continue using all the tools available to help stop this pandemic as we learn more about how COVID-19 vaccines work in real-world conditions. Cover your mouth and nose with a mask when around others, stay at least 6 feet away from others, avoid crowds, avoid poorly ventilated spaces, and wash your hands often.​​” – CDC.gov

520000+ REPORTED COVID-19 DEATHS IN THE UNITED STATES
53400+ REPORTED COVID-19 DEATHS IN CALIFORNIA
as of March 4, 2021 at 12:27pm EST

Q: Do I need to wear a mask and avoid close contact with others
if I have gotten two doses of the vaccine?
THE ANSWER IS: YES!
Protect yourself and others,
follow these CDC recommendations:

• Wear a mask over your nose and mouth
• Stay at least 6 feet away from others
• Avoid crowds
• Avoid poorly ventilated spaces
• Wash your hands often

It’s important for everyone to continue using all the tools available to help stop this pandemic as we learn more about how COVID-19 vaccines work in real-world conditions. Experts are also looking at how many people get vaccinated and how the virus is spreading in communities. We also don’t yet know whether getting a COVID-19 vaccine will prevent you from spreading the virus that causes COVID-19 to other people, even if you don’t get sick yourself. CDC will continue to update….as we learn more.

Together, COVID-19 vaccination and following CDC’s recommendations for how to protect yourself and others will offer the best protection from getting and spreading COVID-19. Additional information can be found at key things to know about the COVID-19 vaccine. (SEE THE LINK BELOW)

“If you are vaccinated against COVID-19, you may still be exposed to the virus.
After exposure, you can be infected with or ‘carry’ the virus that causes COVID-19
but not feel sick or have any symptoms. Experts call this ‘asymptomatic infection.'”
– CDC.gov

The Los Angeles Mask Mandate remains in force:

THE FOUR Ts: “Truth, Trust, Technology, and Transportation” – Mayor Eric Garcetti
THE FIFTH “T” IS TOTAL FAILURE. No plan for the homeless. Endless corruption.
The City of Los Angeles isn’t safe. Not from disease. Not from crime. Not from poverty.
People living on the streets, under overpasses, in doorways…. with NO SERVICES.
The City (and County) of Los Angeles
FAILS TO PROVIDE CLEAN AND SAFE LIVING CONDITIONS for the poor!
~66000 People are homeless in Los Angeles and there’s a deadly pandemic.
THEY STILL WANT TO RE-OPEN THE SCHOOLS AND HAVE SPORTING EVENTS!
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK

We sent out our first warning in early February 2020.
And then another at the end of the month….

We had a doctor’s appointment and saw really sick people on March 4th.
And that was it, we’ve been writing about it everyday, and self-isolating.
It doesn’t feel like yesterday to us….
We are still fighting about ZERO CONTACT and Social Distancing with some people.
Nothing has changed since DAY ONE, one year later.
The CoronaVirus will still kill you and your family!
PEOPLE WHO THINK THE VACCINE
MAKES THEM IMMUNE WILL STILL DIE!

STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME! STAYTHEFUCKHOME!
ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT. ZERO CONTACT.
WEARAFUCKINGMASK! WEARAFUCKINGMASK! WEARAFUCKINGMASK!

US Surgeon General recommends:
Wearing two masks can improve fit & give you better protection from COVID19.
Wear a disposable mask under a cloth mask.
THE MASK GOES OVER YOUR NOSE!
YOUR NOSE AND MOUTH ARE CONNECTED!
COVER YOUR NOSE AND MOUTH!

FUCK.

“Mask Up America” is President Joe Biden’s “100 Day Masking Challenge”

Friday, March 5, 2021
“National Day of Unplugging” promotes a 24-hour respite from technology!
(“Shomer Shabbos!” Just like Shabbat, from sundown-to-sundown
on Friday March 5th to Saturday March 6th)

1:11am: We just woke up.

9:15am: We made and ate a turkey and pepper jack cheese sandwich on a toasted bagel around 5:00am. And then we slept for a little bit. We woke up around 8:00am.
The dogs got fed and went outside. We drank a cup of espresso.
Drink Coffee. Drink Water. Don’t watch the news….

“The Shot Heard ‘Round The World”
On this day in 1770, the Boston Massacre (aka the “Incident on King Street”)
British soldiers from the Grenadier company of the 29th (Worcestershire) Regiment of Foote under the command of Captain Thomas Preston, killed five men and wounded six others in front of the Boston Customs House, who were throwing snowballs, sticks and stones at them. African American Crispus Attucks was the first man killed in the American Revolution.

BLACKLIVESMATTER! 

10:15am: Well, what now? It’s Friday morning.
The “tree guys” are here today. Pruning all the trees. And they started early.

12:25pm: Okay, we are fucking angry again.
Even if you are vaccinated YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO THE CORONAVIRUS!
People who think they’re immune are going to get people sick and they will die.
Even if you are vaccinated you must continue to SOCIAL DISTANCE.
Even if you are vaccinated you must continue to WEAR A DOUBLE MASK.
Even if you are vaccinated you must continue to WASH YOUR HANDS.
Even if you are vaccinated you must continue to ZERO CONTACT!
WTF? DO YOU REALLY THINK THE GOVERNMENT IS TELLING YOU THE TRUTH?
THE GENIE IS OUT OF THE BOTTLE! THIS IS AN EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT!
INFECTIONS ARE RISING IN EUROPE AGAIN!
THE NEW VARIANTS ARE MORE RESISTANT TO VACCINES AND ARE MORE DEADLY!
And there are new variants that have not been identified yet. THEY WILL KILL YOU TOO.
FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK

So, now let’s talk about CA EDD and BofA:
California Unemployment TOTAL FAIL and Bank of America’s CRIMINAL FRAUD!

The story so far: We finally filed for unemployment. We verified with ID.me again.
Our claim was approved and our account was funded with our first two weeks, and then our second two weeks of payments. And we received our EDD Debit Card.
WE COULD NOT ACTIVATE THE EDD DEBIT CARD on the BofA website.
We spent hours on the phone and on hold going around and around with EDD and BofA.
We were told by EDD that the hold on the account was released and BofA was notified.
We were told because of backlog, it could take 10-14 days for BofA to be notified.
WE MAILED A REQUEST FOR CHECKS TO BE MAILED BY EDD – Must Remove BofA!

We sent many messages and emails to EDD and BofA.
We filed online complaints with the FTC and FBI.
We called our Congressman, State Senator, and State Assemblyman too.
We contacted someone in the Assemblyman’s office who said they would help us!
We received a misspelled and confusing message from EDD that changed our check request back to EDD DEBIT CARD….
An EDD DEBIT CARD THAT WE CANNOT ACTIVATE!
and we cannot contact anyone at EDD or BofA to help us…..
Tony for BofA Regulatory Complaints called from an unidentified 877 toll number…
and left a message. We have called back twice and left messages on his voicemail.
We are still waiting for him to call again.
AND WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR THE EDD DEBIT CARD TO BE ACTIVATED!
So, today we called the Assemblyman’s office again
(after messaging EDD again and leaving another message for Tony at BofA),
They are working remotely in the Assemblyman’s office, so we left a message with the office staffer, and then our contact called us back pretty quick, and told us she didn’t previously have our phone number or email….????) We told her our story of EDD FAILURE, sent her an email with a screenshot of the EDD message, and our wonderful contact said she would get back to us by the end of the day today! She has contacts at EDD and someone at BofA who can maybe do something.

We received an email from our contact in reply to the email and screenshot we sent her.

On The Menu: Shabbat Shalom everyone! We had quite a week….
and so we had quite a pizza (extra large sausage and meatball) delivered again.

We ate some pizza and took a shower. And then we fell asleep.
We woke up again after midnight and it was very early on Saturday morning!
And do you know what day it is on Saturday?

Not the Spring Lantern Festival (aka the Yuan Xiao Festival)
“Let there be light!” The lantern provides light.
And light leads the way forward, into the future, and pushes aside the darkness.
The Lantern Festival honors deceased ancestors and promotes reconciliation, peace and forgiveness. It was actually celebrated LAST FRIDAY on February 26 (on the 15th day of the first month of the Lunar calendar, the month of Yuan) in China and many other countries this year. The Lantern Festival is the final day of the traditional Chinese Lunar New Year celebration.
A traditional food for the Lantern Festival is a round rice ball filled with sweet red bean paste, sesame paste, or peanut butter called “Yuanxiao” and/or “Tangyuan”.

CORONAVIRUS! Part 21 (Sat-Sun, and 4-20 Monday)

CORONAVIRUS! Part 21 (Sat-Sun, and 4-20 Monday)

Saturday, April 18, 2020

Remember we did yard work last week?
Trimmed the trees and now the backyard looks pretty good.

“Doo, doo, doo, lookin’ out my back door!”

3:30pm We are taking the weekend off from blogging our forced lockdown. But….
we just caught the very end of the Orange Turd’s daily jerkoff session for the Press,
and TRUMP IS CRAZY! NUTS! TOTAL WACKO! ABSOLUTELY FUCKING INSANE! 

On The Menu: Ordered another sausage and meatball pizza from D’Amore’s!
And had it delivered around 3pm in the afternoon because we were hungry.
(ordered an extra-large and had it for lunch and dinner)

9:30pm Ate some pizza for lunch, played with the dogs, took a nap, ate some pizza for dinner and tuned in to Saturday’s evening’s entertainment airing on ABC, CBS and NBC simultaneously. And also on the interweb everywhere!

A REAL SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL!

Sunday, April 19, 2020 – It’s Bicycle Day!

“Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle,
I want to ride my bicycle, bicycle, bicycle,
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike”

On April 19th, 1943, Albert Hofmann, a chemist for Sandoz Laboratories in Basel, Switzerland, tested an experimental drug on himself and ingested a minute amount (250 micrograms) of a compound synthesized from the rye fungus, ergot. Less than an hour later, he was “tripping” and was the first person to experience the mind-altering effects of LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide). Because of WWII restrictions, he and his assistant rode their bicycles home from work, giving the historic day its name.

“I did not choose LSD; LSD found and called me.” – Albert Hofmann

“I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.”

1:30pm We woke up early. Dogs. Went back to bed.
Woke up again, dogs! And went back to bed. And woke up again.
Dogs outside and made an espresso. Doing a load of laundry too.

SUNDAY! SUNDAY!
It’s overcast and gray, but not cold, here in the valley today.

4:30pm We played with the dogs outside and then made a big pot of steak chili.

CLICK ON ANY SMALL PIC TO SEE A LARGER PIC AND VIEW THE GALLERY
AND THEN CLICK AGAIN TO VIEW THE PIC AT FULL SIZE!

On The Menu: Twice baked potato smothered in spicy steak chili (with beans, bacon and sausage) and cheese and crushed tortilla chips

11:30pm We played with the dogs outside and took a nice hot shower!
And then we fell asleep, and then we woke up around 3:30am.

NOTE: We did watch the Orange Turd’s Sunday evening jerkoff session for the Press.

TRUMP IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THOUSANDS OF U.S. DEATHS!

Trump was briefed about Coronavirus in January!
He called it a hoax, a conspiracy theory, ignored it

CORONAVIRUS! Part 18 – Easter Weekend!

CORONAVIRUS! Part 18 – Easter Weekend!

Saturday, April 11, 2020 
Taking the day off from Blogging the TRUMP CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC crisis.
and It’s National Pet Day!

National Pet Day! My Quarantine Buddies!

STAY HOME! – STAY HEALTHY!
DON’T PANIC! – REMAIN CALM!
AND GO WASH YOUR HANDS!

3:00pm – After we woke up last night, we were up most of the early AM. We finally fell asleep, but had to wake up for the dog’s morning feeding. Took care of that and went back to bed…. slept until about 11am. We are still very much on edge emotionally.

It’s a beautiful day here in the San Fernando Valley and we’re not going to worry about sh*t right now…. NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS FOR REAL!
There was a little something in the NY Times about Trump today……

Spent time in the backyard with the dogs and then totally cleaned and sterilized the kitchen. We ate leftover pizza around 5pm (call it lunch).
Fed and played with the dogs of course.

7:30pm One More Saturday Night! (started at 5:30pm, replay available on youtube)
Tonights concert: Dead&Co. 11-14-17 Madison Square Garden in NYC
Nugs is replaying Dead&Co concerts from the past every Saturday night as a Fundraiser for MusiCares COVID-19 Relief to aid musicians affected by the CoronaVirus Pandemic.

AND ANOTHER DAY IS DONE…. Hey Saturday Night!

8-9:00pm And then we joined a “ZOOM around the burn barrel”
with Professor Pickle (and a real burn barrel with real fire)
and two other peeps for an hour of Burner socializing online!

That is us on ZOOM on Saturday night from the Home Office in Los Angeles.
And it was LIVE with human beings, and also fun and entertaining!
Our third ZOOM experience, so amazingly weird… wearing our burner hat.

NOTE: This is a whole new world of internet participation.
And so we are considering clearing our back desk and creating a scenic background.
Or just go with the virtual background (if we can figure out how to do that)?

FACIAL COVERING IN PUBLIC IS MANDATORY NOW!

 

And we ate some of the leftover Chinese food for dinner around 11pm.

“Leftover pizza for lunch. Leftover Chinese food for dinner.
Leftover is the Jewish holiday that comes after Passover.”

DO THE FIVE – HELP STOP CORONAVIRUS!
1 – HANDS – Wash them often
2 – ELBOW (OR SLEEVE) – Cough into it
3 – FACE – Don’t touch it
4 – SPACE – Keep safe distance (6 feet or more)
5 – HOME – Stay home if you can (or if it’s mandatory)

Sunday, April 12, 2020 – HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY!

Woke up at 3:30am, so we slept maybe an hour and a half, and now it’s 5:40am.
I HAVE RISEN! Did a little youtube viewing in the past 2 hours.
We were considering going to the Supermarket…
There is a list of stuff to get, but we have everything we need to go another day,
and the Supermarket will still be there tomorrow (most likely, but no longer 100%).
So, now the decision must be made…. and NO. We are not going today.
We will face the paranoia tomorrow or Tuesday morning and venture out later.
Today we will chill with the dogs again.

“Conan the Barbarian” with Arnold was just starting this morning!
A film about killing false prophets…how appropriate.
And Conan gets crucified and resurrected too!

Arnold as Conan the Barbarian

We also watched and HIGHLY RECOMMEND
the “Saturday Night Passover Seder”
THIS WAS INCREDIBLE!
You don’t have to be Jewish to love this.
Happy Passover everyone!

5:00pm – Recap the afternoon, shall we?
So, we played with dogs inside and outside.
We did a little “Spring cleaning” at the Home Office.
We did a little “gardening” outside too.
Yesterday was beautiful with blue skies.
Today was just overcast and “gray all day” in L.A.

We had a toasted bagel with cream cheese, orange juice and an espresso for breakfast this morning, and we had a bite of leftover orange beef and a bite of brownie around 4pm.
And we are drinking another espresso while writing this with one dog at our feet and two asleep on the bed. Our big dog is hanging out somewhere else today.

7:00pm We fell asleep with the dogs for an hour and a half.
Woke up and fed the dogs and took them outside.

Easter Dinner for one.
On The Menu: Leftover Chinese food (day 2) – Orange beef and fried rice with an iced espresso. And then we baked banana bread. Mmmmmm….Banana Bread!

Leftover Chinese food (day 2) – Orange beef and fried rice

Baking and cooking is good for relaxation. It can be meditative too.
The Zen of Making! And the end result is the instant reward.

Baking and Making Banana Bread!

Read the previous Blog Post “Baking Banana Bread” for the recipe and video!

Mmmmm…. Warm Banana Bread!

The Easter Weekend Trifecta (a classic triple feature):

And the BEST EASTER FILM EVER:

And….. “Always Look On The Bright Side of Life!”

Just a quick reminder:

DONALD TRUMP on
February 26, 2020:
“The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days
is going to be down to close to zero.”
and
“We’re going very substantially down, not up.”

March 9: “This blindsided the world.”

March 13: “I take no responsibility.” (YES HE REALLY SAID IT!)

115000+ Reported Deaths as of Monday, April 13, 2020 at 6:20am PST

EVERYTHING TRUMP SAYS IS A LIE! – EVERYTHING TRUMP SAYS IS A LIE! –
EVERYTHING TRUMP SAYS IS A LIE! – EVERYTHING TRUMP SAYS IS A LIE! –
EVERYTHING TRUMP SAYS IS A LIE! – EVERYTHING TRUMP SAYS IS A LIE!

Trump was briefed about Coronavirus almost 3 months ago!
He called it a hoax, a conspiracy theory, and then chose to ignore and lie about it!
TOTAL FAILURE! Trump fired the NSC Pandemic Team in 2018!

Why did the United States refuse the World Heath Organization test kits?
Why did the Trump Administration wait to act?
Why did the Trump Administration tell the Washington state doctors not to test?
Why did the GOP Republicans call it a “Democratic Hoax?”
Why didn’t the CDC test kits work?
Why did they wait to get new test kits from Roche? (~400000 available soon)
Why did he put Mike Pence in charge?

THERE IS NO POSITIVE SPIN FOR A GLOBAL PANDEMIC AND THE TOTAL FAILURE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC HEALTH!
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION HAS FAILED TO PROTECT THE UNITED STATES!

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
DO NOT FOLLOW MEDICAL ADVICE FROM TRUMP! HE IS NOT A DOCTOR!
