My book is out!

It’s a monthly account of a year inside the condor program at Pinnacles NP. If you’re curious about what it’s like to restore California condors, this book is for you.

Wonderfully illustrated, 40+ photos, all proceeds go to the Pinnacles Condor Fund!
Then Larry shows up, begs to *borrow* AI Chrissy for….”just 15 minutes” while Stanley makes a wisecrack about the muumuu his wife is wearing, breaking character by turning toward the camera and flashing a shit-eating grin.
A fascinating book; I couldn’t put it down. In fact, it almost made me wanna be an art thief!

Except I’m a klutz with nerves of rubber, a guilty conscience, and an inability to lie convincingly.

Other than that….
In my limited experience with French cuisine, I’ve found the portions so small that the point is moot.

Unless of course the food was so awful you’d literally give it to a dog.
If the Jays win, instead of going to D.C. to meet the president, they oughta invite Trump to Canada as if buying into that 51st state nonsense, then arrest him!
Good point, but if that were to occur it’d be more accurate to label it Artificial Unintelligence.
If Lindsey were canine he’d roll over and piss all over himself in submission to Trump.

Among all the other sycophants and brown-nosers in Trump’s orbit, Lindsey reigns supreme. If ass-kissing was an Olympic event, Lindsey would be its Michael Phelps.
Looks like Time Magazine might want to take that headline back (“His Triumph”).

But the cover photo will never go away.
Silly me.
I believed one of the greatest benefits of being filthy rich wasn’t owning a sprawling ranch stocked with zebras, or having a pet anteater, but simply never having to kiss anyone’s ass.
Then there’s this guy, Musk, Zuck, & Bezos, puckering up to this sh*tstain of a man.

My album is out!
Here’s the second track, an old-school country song I wrote about the consequences of one’s choices in life.
It features some sweet viola (Will Ehlert) and pedal steel (Steve French).
I’m on piano & vocals.

Regarding “cheer for chaos” she seems to have a short memory regarding January 6.
I think you’re right about 1858; if they went back to 1958 the tax rate on corporations and the wealthy would floor them.
I was afraid of this.

This year they had all their injuries early on. Now the pitchers are not only all healthy but in midseason form; they don’t have the fatigue of having thrown around 200 innings.

Their lineup can be stymied but the starting pitchers are lights out.
My secret frog spot, a tiny pool in a shaded erosion gully below an earthen dam. It’s only 10’x7’ but it’s over 3 feet deep.
There were a half dozen red-legs here when I scrambled down today.
A favorite patch of California fuschia in full bloom at Pacheco State Park.
Starting pitching is firing on all cylinders; the time off from injury is paying off in October.

Hard to see them losing this series and I don’t see either AL team making much headway in the WS.
That, and his sister was a congenital liar (football, Charlie Brown). No wonder he toted a blanket around.
Will do. Substitute thoughts for prayers and four way stop for a busy roundabout and that’s me.

True.
Here’s a picture of my album (just released yesterday!) on the subway.
The image is fabricated, but the album is real. Can’t compare to the Gallagher brothers, but it has its moments.
Puts his book “2000 Mules” in a different light indeed!
Horses? In heaven?
If that’s the case then who’s cleaning the stables?
Whoever it is I bet they didn’t figure they’d be shoveling horseshit in heaven.
Yes.
Not to mention Willy AND Nilly.
Congratulations; it looks amazing!
