Carlos sets his mind to stay at a certain time, roughly the late 80s and early 90s, so he’s always surprised to see an old friend who no longer looks like they did thirty-five years ago!

Recently we had lunch with our friends David and Neal and on the way home Carlos remarked that they had aged.

“Aged? We saw them a month ago, they look the exact same.”

“No, their voices sounded older.”

Older than they were four weeks ago … Oy.

This Tuxedo says is from those long-ago days on lockdown, February 2021 …

Seriously. A thin piece of cloth out in public … staying away from people …no large groups … and maybe we wouldn’t be mourning lives lost.

Apparently AOL dial-up is ending on September 30th, marking the end of the service that was synonymous with the internet for many since its launch in 1991.

I thought Dial-up had already ended. Hell, I thought AOL had already ended.

This week, From Our Kitchen, features a Homemade Grit Cake—made from cooking the grits then letting them cool in a sheet pan until they harden and the cutting them into squares and frying them until the outsides are crisp—topped with Bob's Jambalaya—Shrimp, Andouille Sausage and Chicken with Tomatoes, Onions, Garlic and Peppers—topped with Cilantro and a scattering of Grana Padano.

Que Sabroso, as Carlos says.

On the heels of the news that Has-Been “actor” Dean Cain was taking a job with the ICEstapo, someone came up with a list of Supermen who were better than Dean Cain:

1) Christopher Reeve

2) Henry Cavill

3) Brandon Routh

4) The cardboard standee at Blockbuster circa 1993

5) An empty Superman Pez dispenser

6) Pigeon with a red napkin tied around its neck

7) Super Grover

8 ) Half-deflated Superman balloon in a Rite Aid parking lot

9) Roomba with a Superman sticker on it

10) Golden Retriever named Clark

Seems spot on.

It isn’t lost on anyone who isn’t a Republican, a MAGAt cultist or a brain-dead human that The Felon calling the National Guard to come to Washington DC to “fight crime” proves he could have sent the National Guard to the Capitol to halt the insurrection on January 6 but didn’t want to do that.

He riled up the mob and sent the mob to storm the Capitol and then lied about being able to stop it. 

On the flip side, the best thing I heard all week was when President Cankles dragged his fat gelatinous ass to the roof of the White House and people began calling him “Diddler on the Roof.”

And.I.Died.

Recently at the grocery store I asked one of the workers where I might find canned peaches and he said, “I’ll see,” he said and then walked away. After waiting several minutes, I asked another co-worker where to find canned peaches and she said, “I’ll see,” and she vanished.

I finally gave up asking and searched for myself, finding  canned peaches on Aisle C. How hard was that?

Giacomo Cavalli, a graduate in Economics and Marketing from Bocconi University in Milan, pursued a parallel passion for sailing all the while dreaming of entering the fashion world where he has worked with Dolce & Gabbana, Liu Jo, Mont Blanc, Mango, Bulgari, and many others but, do you want to sail with it, or Would You Hit It?

Some readers think I pick on Carlos a lot even though he loves being featured on the blog and has a fabulous sense of humor; he loves the attention. But now, I am beginning to wonder.

Every Sunday Carlos makes pancakes and last week, as he was serving them, he was setting my plate down on the table and tipped my café con leche into my lap.

Two days later, I was working in the office and he came back with a plastic container of gorgonzola to ask if it was bad. I took the container, opened the lid and knew instantly it wasn’t good. I handed him back the container but he knocked it back at me, throwing cheese all over my shirt.

I may have to rethink the Tales of Carlos stories.

Nah.

This Tuxedo Says is from February 4, 2020 …

But the real question is how much will it cost to change their name from GOP to PPP … Pedophile Protection Paty?

Let me get this queer … MAGAts want to save girls from trans athletes but not from wealthy sexual predators?

Got it.

I hate to play the conspiracy card but anyone who paved over a rose garden and wants a huge ballroom—though they have no balls—doesn’t plan on leaving the White House in three years and if that doesn’t scare you into The Resistance and into voting Blue I don’t know what will.

I helped my neighbor out with something this morning and she said to me, "I could marry you"

I couldn't believe it ... You do something nice for someone and they threaten to ruin your life in return.

If baking a cake for a same-sex wedding is endorsing homosexuality, then voting for a pedophile is endorsing pedophilia.

The Felon appeared on the roof of the White House yesterday so either he was thinking of jumping, but sadly didn’t follow through, or Melanie threw a snack up there and then locked the door.

More likely, he’s a demented traitorous moron.

Dean Cain, who played Superman in the 1990s series "Lois & Clark," revealed to fans … er fan … that he had enlisted as an officer in the Immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICE].

Well, to be fair, his acting career has basically been over since Superman was cancelled … and from the looks of the bloated face, maybe he meant his was asking for more ice in his vodka tonic?
