Great news Les! That's a wonderful birthday present.  There's just about nothing we wouldn't do for our pups, right?

Michael Wetzel

Happy, Happy Birthday Lester, and apparently Happy Dog Day too..........

HERE WE GO AGAIN. Another George Floyd night in Minneapolis. Exactly what the left wants....CHAOS....ANARCHY.  I'm so sad about what happened, but the violence has been fomented by the elected officials of Minneapolis and MN.

Bill RIHS

Mayors encouraged the riots with their biased rhetoric with little or no facts/details. Your right, it's another attempt to linching ICE only a cop like 2020. Hope it does not escalate more than rhetoric we see today🤞🏻🙏

Frank Wiley

Hi Les,  GREAT news about your dog and that we'll see you this coming Wednesday!

Michael Kelly

The Minneapolis Minnesota Domestic Terrorist incident in my opinion goes straight back to the claim that Biden made, that the Border could not be controlled because "Immigration Law is Broken and I can't  Enforce it" which turned out to be a Total Lie, because Trump has controlled Border Crossings down to Zero per week, and setting aside that Democratic Senatrors signed Biden's signature for him, which was not disclosed to us until he was no Longer "King" the people at Google indicate that Minneapolis is a Sanctuary City, and Minnesota is a Sanctuary State, so like a Field full of real living cattle, the state and city draw Illegal Immigrants like a Field full of Livestock draw Flies Now this incident with a Woman seeking to block ICE Agents from doing there Job.is another attempt to create Chaos to disrupt National Order. No doubt that Minnesota and Minneapolis will Erupt into Armed and Arson ridden Chaos what with the Mayor of Minneapolis giving the rousing Welcome to ICE Agents presence in Minneapolis. 

It is time to remove from Law State Laws that allow interference with the execution,and application of Federal Laws applicable in instances where Federal Laws are being applied. In addition, some of the State Officials should face Criminal Sanctions for encouraging, or actually engaging in deliberate disobedience of Federal Law. There is Film of what happened that triggered this shooting incident, and if she was aiming her car to actually run over the ICE Agents, her being shot is not an unusual occurrence. Too bad she had to suffer the absolute worse consequence for her intrepidity (Stupidity in Oklahoma)

$1.74 for Regular gas @ Costco today.

DANGER, Will Robinson!!  I meant to say $2.74/gal.  Sorry.  I understand the I-10 coming in from California is jammed with people trying to buy gas here!!

Michael Kelly

Coats Your Gasoline per gallon Price is just about making it more economical to drive to Arizona to Fill up the Tank, than to stay here under the Gruesome Newsome economy and get by on gas prices here.

On another issue, I went to buy a Rifle over here, and the Gun Store said I needed to have my Birth Certificate. If I went to buy a Rifle in Arizona, would they want to see if I have a Birth Certificate also.? I went to Order a Birth Cert. on line, and sent them a Form I filled out, and they came back and told me I didn't exist because my Mother's Maiden Name was not correct on the Form. I am starting to feel like Rodney Dangerfield. I checked with my Youngest Brother, and he said that they may have her name as different from when I was born, because she was listed as a Native American for a while, and she may have  changed her last name from what I was given on my Birth Certicate, to a different last name. 

We had a whole bunch of Rain over here, Roads washed out, Cars were swept away in water, one road that I have traversed numerous times was featured on the News because a Driver tried to drive across it and his Car  was swept away and out into the desert. I don't know if the Driver was ever found.

Had my Annual Physical on Wednesday, it was done remotely, nice lady called herself a physician's assistant, she asked me a bunch of questions. Then she asked me if anyone had ever told me that I was suffering from  Alzheimer's or Dementia, I answere back that I didn't think so,but I really couldn't remember, Our conversation ended I believe. 

Frank Wiley

Well Mike, one good thing about living in Commie-fornia is you won't have to worry about paying the billionaire tax?

Jim Coats

LEFTY.

Re:  My #15757.  Gas at Costco yesterday was $2.74, NOT $1.74.  It's still $3.15 at Safeway.

I was typing on my Android where everything on the CHS site is still microscopic and my fingertips are 3 keys wide.  I hope your heart is OK and you're not on the road here to fill up....although I'd really like to see you.

Re: Birth Certificate requirement to buy a gun here.  NOPE.  I have a Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) permit and that greatly speeds up the process since I have already been proctologically examined by DPS, ATF, FDIC and CHS.

Your experience with your Physician's Assistant (PA) is similar to mine PLUS I never get to speak directly with my Doc, just the PA via Zoom or whatever the hell it's called.  Assembly Line Medicine, Mike.  "Get 'em in....Get 'em out...And Don't let 'em die on my watch.

Bill RIHS

Sharon and I have "Direct Care" doctor. He is available 24/7 via his cell phone. He does have a PA to handle questions and prioritize appointments for those that want one or need one. We see him for our annual physical not the PA. No insurance to deal with. We love it for $120/ month.

Michael Kelly

Coats  It almost seems like the Doctor's Exam is not about your current health, or lack thereof, it is more than likely Aimed at diagnosing us Guinea Pigs with some kind of condition or disease, that calls for a Group or Schedule of Medicines that are gauged at pricing you right up to the Maximum of your Socially Subsicized Medical Allotment. Very Clever, Perhaps it is time for all of us to become Voting Stockholders in one or more of the Pharmaceutical Corps and Vote at the Annual Meetings for cheaper medicine Costs. Like Charlton Heston when one of the Media Giants became very Vociferous against Gun Ownership so Heston became a Shareholder, with Voting Rights, and Threatened the Corporation with a Shareholder Takeover unless they changed their Policy about Gun Ownership. It Worked.
