This post has a slight tone at times.

Well, we made it to Friday again. Looks like winter weather has settled in our midwest region. And I am over it.

The back porch with a giant tv monitor set is a real trigger for me. And we won’t discuss Angie’s choice of coat to wear on television.

Anyway, I’ve gone to the store to stock up on my requisite impending weather snacks aka hot cheetos. They are the price of gold now, but special occasions call for special treats. I don’t make the rules.

I have to say, that even though most of the jokes are over my head, Matt Mitchell’s end of the football season wrap up still made me chuckle. I kept waiting and waiting for Mizzou to make an appearance. It did not disappoint.

I, for one, am so glad the U.S. Department of Transportation is focusing on the important stuff.

It should come as no surprise that the rest of that article is filled with anecdotes about people not getting jokes and potentially driving off the road. I am continually concerned about the intelligence of those around me on the road and using the internet (of course, I don’t include readers of this blog in that grouping).

Did you know there are enough people who don’t realize that the police officer at the beginning of Home Alone is ACTUALLY THE ROBBER CASING THE JOINT that this post came up on my explore tab and got thousands of likes?

To answer the question, six. I was six years old when this movie came out and I still managed to pick up on this basic plot point.

Two weeks into the new year and this is my 2024 vibe.
