The predictions for the winter here in Manly Time has been below average temperatures. As a result, it's a sunny 51 degrees today, and there's not a lick of snow on the mountains. The local ski resort would normally be getting ready to open, and now it will be...

I feel a little baked, for some reason. Yep. Old Man and Neph are going to watch the Browns and Ravens struggle toward mediocrity today. Yeah, I don't care either. Birthdays? One of the finest middle names of all time...Father of the Blues, or just the sperm...

Yeah, not feeling it today. I got a shitload of chores done, there's a brisket on the smoker, and it's Saturday. I feel fulfilled and once I finish this, it's nap time. Links? "How about you go fuck yourselves?" MTG is a whack job, but I don't get Laura Loomer, or her...

So, I forgot that having a girl friend meant buying her shit. Yeah, she needs to populate the house in the Gulch with her clothes, because I don't check baggage when I come here. As a result, the local consignment shop just had it's best sale ever... Links? For those...

So for the second year in a row, I had no trick or treaters here in the Gulch. I assumed it's because I live on a hill, and also have a steep driveway. Turn off the porch light and voila, no kids. Well, I forgot where I am. Alfred actually has a ordinance on what...

Searching for "rain" brought up this buxom lass. I just went with it. Rain and early winter have arrived in Manly Time, just in time for me head to the Gulch and...rain and early winter. Sigh. Links? I use CarPlay and I like it. Seems like a dumb decision, but I don't...

The girlfriends daughter and boyfriend carved me a couple of pumpkins as a thank you...two weeks ago. They looked like the dude above when I shoveled them into a bag yesterday. Oh, well. It was a nice gesture. For those of you with even a passing interest in baseball,...

We've had a week of unseasonable warm weather the last week, to the point that I felt obligated to do one more pass through the garden. Yeah, I'm processing 35lbs of tomatoes this weekend. But we are headed into the '60s next week, with rain forecast. An excellent...

OMWC is currently playing the role of heretic, so here I am. Birthdays: One big hunk of cuck...Paki's rejoice...One of the father's of obesity, and love...What a day. Astroderp...I am thunderstruck...Wait...she was only twelve... Okay, enough of that silliness. Links?...

All I ask is that Boise makes it a competitive game. Although Notre Dame isn't exactly a powerhouse this year. Huh. I just got a text from SugarFree asking if I had a pair of high voltage gloves laying around. Weird. Links? If I didn't know better, I'd say that...

I have no idea what Sloopjos is doing this week. Something about Messican ass weed. And lawyers. Links? WTF? I'll wait for the Pornhub channel. Erm... So this happened. Oddly enough, Hamas is the only party not already on board. My intense dislike for this choice has...

I was waylaid by my neighbor and a bottle of wine. "Oh shit, I have 20 minutes." Links? Newsom is such a retard. He's daring Trump to punch him in the nose. Either way, it's going to get worse. I'll let you decide whether or not this is sour grapes. You reap what you...

I am in full canning and preserving mode. After today, I'll be up to ten quarts of sauce and I don't know how many bags of roasted chiles, ready to vacuum seal for the freezer. And, piss poor planning on my part, I leave Tuesday for a week. I have a drift boat and a...

The front page picture is a small stream at 7,000' I fished last week. I was landing lunker fingerlings, but it just didn't matter. In other news, summer is waning and the harvest has begun. The beauty above is probably the biggest tomato I've ever grown. Time to...

That's what I'm talkin' about. Yep, it's August. That means smoke in the air. Air quality is 102 here at the cabin. So it goes. There's still fish in the river and birds in the forest to be gathered and eaten. Links? The Cracker Barrel saga takes a dark turn. Tedious....

When you add all types of knives together, I think I have about 60 blades. My EDC is one of my Spyderco's. This little fella followed me home today. I need to feed it the blood of my enemies. Or at least some cardboard. Links? He's surfing the big waves now. Sucks to...

That's what I'm talking about. Winding down my last weekend in the Gulch, it's about time to close up and head west to Manly Time. Above is my final visit to the Giant Dipper. I need to hit the gym something fierce... Links? Night vision goggles? Tweakers. Makes it...

That is not right. SugarFree is on a bender. Every now and then, he decides to live dangerously and buys a bag of Skittles. His blood sugar is probably well into the upper three digits by now. That's when he does his best writing. Links? Prolly not something you want...

Next week it is time for the summer sojourn to Glibs Gulch. I hope to get our new bar at least mapped out, if not partially built by the time I come home. We'll see. There are the usual festivities to be had that may cut into productive hours. Links? Just a year ago...

Yep. Here in Manly Time, July has arrived, and with it the heat. We will be close to, or over 100 degrees for the next few weeks. At least I'm not dumb enough to live in Arizona like Mexi. Links? They were brown in a field. Of course they were illegal. Gavin has a man...

I'm must be allergic to fireworks, I feel like I'm hungover today. Links? Let's get this out of the way. This is an absolute tragedy. And there's more to come. Let the hand wringing commence. No, they're not "abandoning the contract with SpaceX". Yes, MAGA has it's...
