TGIF

Today my services are required by the project manager of my casita. We need to go shopping for additional materials, one of which is the electrical breaker box as none are available locally. Liberia Do It Center, here we come!

Actually, I am looking forward to getting out and about. It has been awhile.

When I awoke this morn and saw that David Pecker of the National Enquirer tried to blackmail the richest man in the world, Jeff Bezos with a below the belt selfie, I thought that Tony Soprano wouldn't be so stupid. Of course, Bezos owns the Washington Post, who last employed Jamal Khashoggi, is coincidentally doing an investigation of ties between the Saudis and Pecker.

There has to be a joke somewhere in there concerning billionaires, boners and bone saws but I can't find it.

I wonder who will win. Fake News or Real News?  Saudi Collusion or Russian Collusion?

I've posted below a few memes and photos of my casita. Deep apologies for any humor inconvenience.




Waiting for the concrete to be poured




This is between my casita and the main road.

Best wishes for a peaceful weekend.

What Is Wrong With Cindy McCain?
