I guess their sponsorship of Dragnet couldn't save Fatima cigarettes:

Nah. Just the same ol’ watching the commies in Washington all week.
“The gay, mad world of the theater...” How right he was, even back in ‘55.

My weekend has been non stop busy. But I now have a new dining room table so life’s good. The lawn continues to come in and they reseed Tuesday.

Same swamp, deeper muck. We at least have some semblance of 'normalcy' (such as it is) and routine back. Still sifting through the old place; I blew out a tendon in my ankle in the immediate aftermath from dragging debris and salvage out of the there (took the newly-minted Obamacare types five weeks, three tests, and an MRI to figure it out), so I've been a bit hobbled (literally) in getting the book closed on that chapter of life. But, we're slowly moving forward. The mortgage is paid off on the place now; I have a lovely quarter acre of property with a 2200 square foot duplex 'fixer upper' I'm willing to let go cheap. LOL! We're putting in a bid on a 5 BR, 3 BA home on 1 acre, with wood fireplaces in the living room AND the dining room, an in-ground pool, a small hiking trail in the trees, and quite a few other amenities. If God thinks we deserve it, we'll put the effort in to get it. Oh, one of the home replacement items I've picked up at a local antiques mall that you might like:

A repro, of course, but I'm working on how to get it to broadcast web feeds.........

It’s good to hear an update, Viking. Despite your injury, it sounds like the Lord is doing what He always does for us—fixing you right up!
I’m glad for you both! :-)
Nice radio, too! My husband Keith (FReeper “Logitech”) has a collection of antique radios—one is an original, functioning 1936 Atwater Kent, a beautiful tombstone-style.

Saw that new documentary on tv where former Obama voters all say they will not vote for him again.
