Your “Very Lazily, Hastily And Poorly Conceived” Early Daytime Tuesday Open Thread

Nothing on the docket today so far so I’m gonna push this in.  Talk about whatever you want.  Heck, you will anyway, LOL.

Speaking of Tuesday, this is Tuesday Weld.

Not too shabby, huh?

Did you know that the NYSE crashed on a Tuesday?  Black Tuesday they call it.  October 29, 1929 if my memory is correct.  No, I’m not looking it up.

Did you know that In the Nahuatl language, Tuesday is Huītzilōpōchtōnal (Nahuatl pronunciation: [wiːt͡siloːpoːt͡ʃˈtoːnaɬ]) meaning “day of Huitzilopochtli”.   I didn’t.  And frankly don’t care.

In Greek and Roman mythology, Mars (or Ares) is the War God, and so, people born on Tuesdays come with a fiery, fighting spirit. These folks are brave, impatient, energetic, active, and driven to succeed, sometimes to a fault. Or, as the nursery rhyme goes, they’re “full of grace.” The rhyme may be a tad reductive, come to think of it.

Tuesdays saw the highest number of deaths from the flu and pneumonia — 134,567 — though Wednesdays came in a very close second, with a total of 134,525 deaths from these diseases.

Tuesday is the day of the week that is least likely to have a Christmas Eve on it

Interestingly enough, Tuesday is the day of the week that has the second-highest chance of having a Christmas on it, with the first being Thursday.

In the Eastern Orthodox Church, Tuesdays are dedicated to Saint John the Baptist.  So be sure to keep your head today. (Get it?)

And of course Tuesdays are tradition for election days.  And we all know how that’s worked out recently.

Anywhooooo….

Hopefully BC Dick  will give you something more interesting to read in a few hours.  But I have it on good authority he can’t figure out Canadeean postal rates.  Either that or he just wanted to keep all the weed for himself.

Either way, knock yourselves out in the komments as always.

Got a little over 4 miles and a hill climb in. Got ro stare longingly at the ocean. Man is it fucking gorgeous out.

I don’t understand why the postage has to be different. It’s one thing, roughly the size of an envelope, albeit a bit thicker. Just take it where it says, letter jockey, quit moaning about non standard this and oversized that. God damn it!

JAM THE MACHINE!

Well I’ll be damned. Looks like the virus went for a deaths/cases ratio of 6.9% after all. 6.90065953%, to be exact.

I realize this is quite controversial here and I appreciate that you support this in spite of it being a possible cleavage between others.

So I’ve kept this link open in a tab for later:

http://www.vernonjohns.org/snuffy1186/movies.html#XXII

It’s a list of historical fiction films in chronological order. But because of the url, every time I click on the tab it registers in my brain as “historical snuff films”.

So you can see why I am keeping the tab open “for later”.

ANY historical film is a snuff film. That said; make sure your will and insurance are up to date.

It is tough to get spit, sweat, hair and blood out of faux leather. He just keeps it gently used.

This is how the Lady LemonJello and I have been going out foraging for supplies.

There was a disturbing amount of traffic yesterday afternoon. This morning was okay. We’ll see.

In BC Dicks eyes a few stamps, A Vancouver Canuck hockey sticker, some Subway sub stamps and a taped Canadian Tire 10 cent note taped to an ounce of weed should suffice. Smdh.

BC Dick

It was fine. There was at least 5 or six or those forever stamps and a couple of standard ones I had from a postage machine.
It’s their problem. I think your delivery man helped himself.
