And with that cryptic comment, I'm going to bed.

I feel like we are trapped
in a societal ground hog day...

For the: 
"Why didn't I fucking think of this category award"
the Austrians are considering making the 
anti-vaxxers lock down at home..???
Brilliant, just fucking brilliant!
I have been working hard at being more
introspective..
 I await an epiphany....PLEASE!

I spend so much time, rabidly, ashamed of us now.
 Conservative elements, both political and religious,
 their hatred, and bigotry knows no end. 
The conservative war against Trans people and especially
against Trans children causes this:
Conservatives have no soul, no consideration
for their fellow citizens...
regardless of the religious bullshit they spew.
They are passing this venom onto their children.
I am worn out hoping, dreaming,
something, someone, will save us from them.

An English guru Chef of healthy eating,
who supposedly invented the world's
healthiest dinner...
Falls over dead from a heart attack at 43 yrs. old?
I'm so sorry for him
to die at that age is just tragic but---
Death don't care about no Veggies...
Bannon will finally be arrested (again)
he is facing 2yrs in jail.
The last time it was for bilking Conservative shitheads
out of funds donated to a
"build the wall" scheme
 and Trump.......
Pardoned him...
This time will be different..!
I am sure that at the moment all these
scumbag, MAGA hanger's-on are desperately
trying to be the first to turn
on the ex-President to keep themselves out of jail..!
Billy Strings,
after winning a Grammy, 
bought 200 guitars and gave them away
at his old Grammar school...
Saying his guitar in Grade School was 
his best friend and he wanted all the kids
to have a chance at having a best guitar friend.
He handed one to each kid at the school.
Personally I am in the doldrums
practicing..
I'm not advancing at all lately..

As an update on the 
Renka, Soviet era, 24hr. watch
 from last week...
Case and crystal cleaned and polished
 a new, silicone band attached. I did have
to hack it to get it to get the band to work but still---
and then added a watchband compass...
Very pleased with the result and 
it keeps excellent time...!

The original...
On Netflix streaming...

Too bad they set their phasers to miss.

I am so done with our national:

A group of Q-Anon weirdos believing
John F. Kennedy Jr. would come back
to life and reappear in fucking Dallas
were waiting to welcome him this week?
Could we as a country be any more fucked up?

Do you ever wonder on WHYS...
The why's that suddenly pop into your thoughts
out of nowhere?
As in:
 why you are the way you are?
For me, this, why-ing, has happened
 with increasing frequency 
since I became a geezer?
Why do I do things the way I do--?
Why am I the way I am------------?
Why do I have belief in the things I do ?
There are so so fucking many WHY'S,
in my head when I am older.
All I can do is deal with 
these questions, or not,
 as best I can....
 and get on with life...
while it lasts?

Jenna Ryan..
from Texas of course...
Who flew on a private jet to 
Washington D.C. to storm the Capitol building
on Jan. 6th....
and who claimed it was the 
"best day of my life"....
and who said Trump would pardon her (right?)
and claimed that since she was white, rich and beautiful
she'd get out of going to jail...
and who was stupid enough to post everything
on her dumb-shit, right wing social media sites...
is now doing 60 days in jail.
One of Jenna Ryan's partners in crime..
(Literally)
Evan Neumann, fled to the Ukraine
instead of facing trial for assaulting Capitol Police
Officers during the Jan 6th insurrection.
He is now 
claiming asylum in Belarus...?
I hope he tries expressing his "Freedumb" by
 assaulting officers in Belarus...
he may find the results a bit different? 
and I am,
 hoping many, many more of these Republican
shit-bags patriots
follow him to Belarus..

We, one of the richest nations in the world,
have to fight and claw our way through the Republicans
for any improvements in our lives and society?
Trillions for war mongering in Iraq 
but nothing for us?
Just why the fuck is that?
US democrats-pass infrastructure-bill

Why did this bill take so, so long and 
why did we have to loose the social benefits
bill to get an infrastructure bill?

I have been working on a Russian
Raketa 24 hr. dial, commemorative, analog,
mechanical watch,
I purchased years ago and have never worn.
It is a very very small diameter face and
it is actually quite difficult to determine the
time the numerals are so small.
It takes a very small width
watchband which I just never seemed to 
have in stock.
 I ordered a watchband, did a cleaning and 
I am in the process of accuracy testing.
I'll post on the finished product when completed.
The Soviets, years ago, gave these commemorative
watches out to workers as incentives.
This particular watch commemorates a scientific study 
conducted on a floating ice floe near
the north pole...?
There are many other Soviet commemorative
artic watches but apparently this one is
a bit more rare...I really cannot find 
information on it anywhere at the moment?

Love it---

Green day..
I hope you had the time of your life.
