Bobservations

As is usual around Casa Bob y Carlos I do the Christmas decorations. One could say it’s because of Carlos’ eyesight, which could be true; or it might be because he doesn’t enjoy it like I do, which is also somewhat accurate; or you could say it’s because I become a demon at Christmas and direct him where to put ornaments and such because one time he lined up three … THREE … blue ornaments in a row; the paramedics took an hour to revive me.

So Carlos says I am a combination of Martha Stewart, Joan Crawford and Adolf Hitler when I decorate the tree so for these past several years he disappears when the ornaments come out. But, he does his part; we have an artificial tree—we are surrounded by pine trees and so I don’t want a dead one in my house—and he puts it together before he disappears. This weekend we got the tree, the ornaments, the decorations, lights, holiday bric-a-brac from the garage and I went back to blog as Carlos assembled the tree. I was minding my own business when  I heard him say:

“Hey Jon Stewart, the tree is ready!”

Jon Stewart? Comedian? Political activist? Christmas? Then it hit me … Joan Crawford sounds a little John Crawford with his accent and then  he’d stirred in Martha Stewart.

John. Stewart.

Carlos, the gift that keeps on giving.

This Tuxedo memory is from April 2012:

"Caturday

This is the Smallville version of Neighborhood Watch.

Not as much Yin-and-Yang as it is Yin-and-Yin."

There was always something in the yard to keep Consuelo and Tuxedo watching, and I miss my two boys and their cuddle time.

I swear when I saw this post on JoeMyGod I thought someone had purchased Hawaiian Air for $1.98 and instantly wondered why I missed that chance.

In Pennsylvania, while most of the newly sworn in members to the Central Bucks school board chose to swear their oaths on a bible, incumbent Karen Smith brought a stack of other books to the ceremony … and took her oath of office with her hand placed on top of six frequently banned and challenged books.

The tide may be changing; keep that in mind and vote accordingly.

The same crowd that has carried a grudge against Jane Fonda for 50 years think we should "get past" Jan 6^th.

A man died and went to Heaven. As he stood in front of St. Petere at the Pearly Gates he noticed a huge wall of clocks and asked:

“What are those clocks?”

St. Peter answered:

“Those are Lie Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie Clock and every time someone lies the hands on their clock moves forward.”

‘Whose clock is that?”

“That’s Mother Teresa’s. The hands on her clock have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie.”

“Incredible.”

“And that’s Abraham Lincoln’s clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Lincoln told two lies during his entire life.”

“Where’s, um, Thing 45’s clock?”

“Oh, Jesus took it to his office. He’s using it as a ceiling fan.”

How fast is your clock moving?

The New Hampshire GOP just introduced a bill to ban abortion after just fifteen days; days, not weeks. 

Remember that when you go to the polls; most Americans believe in a woman’s right to choose but still the GOP stands in her way.

She’s quite sweet and affectionate and loves to be petted and held but, man, does Rosita have Resting Bitch Face or what?

Moms for Liberty Bigotry and Hate co-founder Bridget Ziegler has left her position at the conservative Leadership Institute, which has already removed her name from its website in wake of a three-way sex scandal and criminal probe involving her husband.

Ziegler and her husband liked adding another woman to their sexual escapades, which is not a bad thing among consenting adults, but when you paint yourself as the model of Christianity and Liberty and all that other balderdash, you just look like a lying, hypocritical fool. Bye.
