Up to 17 species of hawks winter in MO. They've been showing up for the last month or so.

You could go to a different church, couldn't you? Just a thought.

I just spent 2 hours in the service of the humble humidors at the church of the Victorious Vitolas.

Man, that's a lot of work if you let things get out of hand. For the most part, spring summer and fall are okay to leave my cigars laying around, but now was the time to get ready for a winter when the house and basement are way too dry.

I'm halfway through the second of two cups of coffee and just found out church services are canceled for today. What the H-E-double-hockey sticks am I supposed to do now?

Actually, I was just looking for a reason to say H-E-double-hockey sticks because it cracks me up.

Maybe I'll go somewhere and have a big breakfast.

I didn’t even notice this sticker until I was putting it away. I suppose the store owner and friends had some fun touring the distillery and drinking from a particular barrel and all that jazz. You younger kids might not recognize that phrase “all that jazz”. Look it up. While you’re at it you should look up “razzle dazzle” because I think I could have used either antique phrase to make the same point.

Going to move this conversation over here out of respect for the meme people. But I've always been fascinated by bitcoin, and the concept of inflation proof money. I've never actually put my money where my mouth is though, so I couldn't tell you why people do that. It is funny though how Jim Cramer is just wrong about everything all the time. He has his own reverse ETF that someone made, where you can invest in it, and it picks the opposite of whatever he says. It's very profitable so far from what I understand.
