Had some leftover Bolognese sauce and I'm going to make a frittata for supper.
That and a salad ought to do it.
Four score and one
Moi.
81 years ago in St. Margaret's Hospital, in Montgomery, Alabama, I became a being on this planet.
And a citizen of the United States of America.
Which seemed to be a pretty good deal at the time, but...
This happened to me about 3 months before the infamous Japanese sneak attack on Pearl Harbor ("A day that will live in INFAMY!"
I don't really remember much about that, but I later learned that it did piss off a BUNCH of folks.
It's ironic that about 50 years later I came to fly for a Japanese cargo outfit.
Nippon Cargo Airlines.
The tales I could tell.
It's a funny old world.
What are you going to do with your pay raise?
We're either buying a Tesla or going on a round-the-world cruise.
The latest Trump grift? Burying Ivana at their golf club.
"In his forced (and, he hopes, temporary) retirement, defeated former president Donald Trump has come up with a new undertaking. He’s undertaking.
Technically, his Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J., is now acting as a “cemetery company.” And he has already landed his first occupant: He just buried his late ex-wife, Ivana Trump, right near the first tee.
He has seemingly turned his late ex-wife (and his oldest kids have turned their late mother) into a tax dodge. Dartmouth professor Brooke Harrington, a specialist in tax optimization, checked the New Jersey tax code and reported that operating a cemetery at the Trump National offers “a trifecta of tax avoidance. Property, income & sales tax, all eliminated.” She tweeted that it “looks like one corpse will suffice to make at least 3 forms of tax vanish.”
