He found out that his docs think there might be an issue but he’s having to wait for his test results to come in at the end of the week.  Himself’s and my thoughts, prayers, and good wishes are with him. Continue reading

It seems that the Muslim Brotherhood is starting to flex its muscles in Egypt. They are wanting to put Islamic type dress and mixing and mingling of the sexes codes onto beaches. Whatever, it’s their country and I will never need to go there to get some beach-time.  However: Abd Al-Munim A-Shahhat, a spokesman for… Continue reading

 I learned: That of course the Mighty Og and Himself/Mr. B both speak Taze (of which there are 147 dialects, including Dog/Electric Fence Collar).
