All because Tim asked if I'd like to join in the fun.</p><p>I had no clue what my life was going to become back then. I hadn't re-enlisted yet. Hadn't gotten married yet. And here I am, retired from the Army, still putting up with my wife, and I'm old enough now to say I have no clue what my life will be in twenty years. Or if I'll even be around in twenty years. Who knows?</p><p>What I do know is that I'm rather tired of living in he Goolag, where posts of mine show up as censored by the Marxist pieces of shit at Google and Alphabet.

It has been all assholes and elbows here since his death. There was a bunch of stuff that was planned prior to his passing, and that still had to be attended to. Such as the removal of several trees around the property that were either dying or at risk of falling and hitting the house. Since we use wood heat in the winter, that means they left the trees where they fell and it was my job to try to clean it up. Three days of moving wood and downed limbs, and I’ve barely put a scratch on the piles. It’ll be an all-summer event.</span></p><div class="entry-content clearfix" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #4a474b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding-top: 1.5em;"><p style="border: 0px none; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; padding: 0px;">Helping Mom with the administrative stuff that happens when a retired service member dies. There’s a lot of people you have to contact and inform of the passing. Pay stuff. He was getting disability on top of the retirement, and since his death was related to his disability Mom gets a portion of it. Social Security, and dear Lord how I hate dealing with government offices.</p><p style="border: 0px none; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; padding: 0px;">So I’ve been busy. Hell, I might have had one day off since I retired, because people need to be taken care of and things need to be accomplished, and I’m the able-bodied (somewhat) man of the house, and so I just kept putting one foot in front of the other. Until yesterday.</p><p style="border: 0px none; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; padding: 0px;">Dad had a lot of mementos from his service. Lots of stuff that had importance to him personally, but other than that has real little value. I have the same from my service. I daresay that all of you, if you’re of my age or older, have the same from whatever occupation you had, a lifetime of memories from a career that are dear to you, but memories only matter to the person who has them. And so I have bundles of things, stuff, odds and ends that Dad cared about that are not only impractical but have very little use in the world, and I’m finding it rather hard to dispose of them. Anything that can be used or reused will be, because my father didn’t raise a wasteful man. But things such as the embroidered insignia from his first tour in Viet Nam, that not only means little to me but that I can’t even relate to, is still hanging on the wall. All of his sailing books that I’ll never use, because I already have hobbies that suck up my time and cash. The challenge coins… I have my own collection, and it’s considered uncouth to keep challenge coins that weren’t given to you directly. Dad got those coins for the things that HE did, just as I received mine for my own actions.</p><p style="border: 0px none; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; padding: 0px;">I can’t keep it all. But I’m struggling to part with it. I already have lot of mementos of my father. His service pistol, a 1911 he purchased when he first reported to his unit and was issued a pistol that rattled when you held it. Back when I first held his pistol, he told me that he had asked for something that wouldn’t blow up in his hand, and the armorer informed him that he could buy his own if he wanted. So he did. Books about forestry, which I think I’ll find more and more useful as the years go on. Pictures and memories framed on the wall. I know that I can’t keep everything. But I feel like it’s going to be several months before I can pare it down.</p><p style="border: 0px none; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.5em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">I told my Mom that when everything was done and put away, I was going to walk out into the woods and have myself a good long cry. And I think that when I let go of the last of Dad’s stuff, that is when it will happen.</p></div><ul class="entry-footer" style="background-color: white; border-bottom-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-color: initial; border-right-color: initial; border-style: solid none none; border-top-color: rgb(245, 245, 245); border-width: 1px 0px 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #4a474b; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 20px 0px 0px; padding: 0px;"><li class="comment-link col-sm-4" style="border: 0px none; box-sizing: border-box; color: #989898; float: right; font-size: 0.9em; line-height: 16px; list-style: none; margin: 15px 0px 0px; min-height: 1px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-align: right; width: 263.9px;"><span class="fa fa-comments" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-family: FontAwesome; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: 1; margin-right: 5px; text-rendering: auto;"></span></li></ul>Ragin' Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421198497767878287noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237925.post-73347679774990149612023-06-16T21:50:00.003-06:002023-06-16T21:50:41.243-06:00We all knew it.

The people running these companies hate you, and they think you're a knuckle-dragging moron.</p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"></span></p><blockquote><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;">The “all-ages Pride event” will reportedly happen in Flagstaff, Arizona. Titled “Pride of the Pines,” the event will include drag queens and other LGBTQ-themed performances. According to </span><a class="x5l" href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/bud-light-co-sponsoring-all-ages-drag-show-party-safe-space-family-festival-event" rel="noopener external" style="background-color: white; color: #00749e; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Fox News</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;">, the event lists Bud Light as one of its corporate sponsors and is even featured prominently on one of the posters. It will take place on June 17.</span></blockquote><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"></span><p></p><p>Wait, <i>ONE</i> of its corporate sponsors? So other companies have decided to to stick their dick into a hornet's nest as well?</p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"></span></p><blockquote>“Other big-name companies sponsoring the all-ages event for Pride Month include Old Navy, Toyota and Coca-Cola USA, according to an event flyer. The Northern Arizona Pride Association lists a ‘No Nudity-City Ordinance’ for ‘all gender forms’ as one of the regulations for the park that the event will take place in.”</blockquote><p></p><p>Do you understand just how badly the morons running these companies hate you, hate Christianity, hate Western values and hate America? For them, they'll do anything to keep getting invited to the right parties and moving in the right circles. They'll drive their organizations into the ground to the applause of all the smart people who have impeccable credentials. I've watched it happen. And I've watched the same credentialed failures keep moving from organization to organization, never succeeding at anything other than losing money, and always failing upward.</p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"></span></p><blockquote><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;">As Breitbart News </span><a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/04/21/vice-president-of-marketing-out-at-bud-light-amid-transgender-controversy/" style="background-color: white; color: #00749e; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; vertical-align: baseline;">reported</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;">, Bud Light Vice President of Marketing Alissa Heinerscheid was placed on a leave of absence for her role in pushing the ad. Her boss, Daniel Blake, went on a leave of absence almost immediately after.</span></blockquote><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"></span><p></p><p>Let me ask the hypothetical question if I may. If you were a person of some importance at your job, and you not only lost the company billions of dollars in market value and drove away 25% of your customer base, would you get to keep your job?</p><p>We all know the answer, don't we? Hell NO you wouldn't be able to keep your job, and any boss who actually cared about his company would fire you so fast that your shadow wouldn't catch up to you until you were halfway home.</p><p>And yet the two woke cretins in charge, Heinerscheid and Blake, are NOT fired are they? Nope. "Leave of Absence". Which is corporate speak for "Let's keep paying them and hide them until the morons settle down a little, and then we'll bring them back in al quiet like."</p><p>One, this shows that they don't give a fuck about what you think. They hate you. They hate your lifestyle, your customs, your traditions, your values. </p><p>Two, this is even more egregious from a marketing standpoint and shows just how horrible that woke hag Heinerscheid is at her job. What kind of marketing "professional" is so clueless about her customers that they literally drive away the people who buy their product? Bud Light is radioactive now. And again, and I'm going to keep pounding this fact home, Heinerscheid STILL HAS HER JOB. Because they hate you, they hate your values, they hate your religion, and they hate that you are allowed to live the way you want to live. They don't care how bad Heinerscheid is, and they don't care how many customers they lose. They have their woke narrative to push, and they'll push it at the exclusion of everything else.</p><p>Again, they'll happily drive Bud Light into insolvency if it allows them access to the credentialed social circles they run in, where everybody knows each other and they all went to the same schools and they all just know somehow that those slope-headed Jesus Freaks in flyover country need to be taught what to think.</p><p>Anyways, I need more coffee and the dogs need a walk, so.... </p><p>UPDATE: Found at <a href="https://ace.mu.nu/archives/404862.php" target="_blank">Ace of Spades</a>: </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjtVMETxXZ04bB9zWn3EP7US0BLn_tihQbeWlBgCFde7aTnJkuigqmVdcTiD0TjYafwVxndySFs1YPdROFhIfyMHQTWlIIdYD1T-LAD2JxiEQz1HOMrrmCqigUMkyaCNmuAXDlTBthPS2OrcaobAk0pj_4Nn11c1JVQ9U2XWrwVMYZ0vegT-g" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="1078" data-original-width="821" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjtVMETxXZ04bB9zWn3EP7US0BLn_tihQbeWlBgCFde7aTnJkuigqmVdcTiD0TjYafwVxndySFs1YPdROFhIfyMHQTWlIIdYD1T-LAD2JxiEQz1HOMrrmCqigUMkyaCNmuAXDlTBthPS2OrcaobAk0pj_4Nn11c1JVQ9U2XWrwVMYZ0vegT-g=w488-h640" width="488" /></a></div><br />They won't stop until it becomes too painful for them to keep repeating their actions.<p></p>Ragin' Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421198497767878287noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237925.post-37495764760135904202023-06-10T21:06:00.001-06:002023-06-10T21:06:10.570-06:00Chiquita Banana<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEguLR4n6GVLcjIkXuUZR86-7STB0Msa6XzP2WgEIxB_oYQSU69kRb2Onh3yw9BHdJBVfT2pYMQDFkAqPTp3KsMaWbqCdcK3lCFauAVH05zgjFgazVbXMQW7e36VOrNxYFI6OiwGrCfGKBPnG2KBG22OjfvzNMoU_h4CNVVzkUFsAn16TsJqCg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="477" data-original-width="768" height="398" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEguLR4n6GVLcjIkXuUZR86-7STB0Msa6XzP2WgEIxB_oYQSU69kRb2Onh3yw9BHdJBVfT2pYMQDFkAqPTp3KsMaWbqCdcK3lCFauAVH05zgjFgazVbXMQW7e36VOrNxYFI6OiwGrCfGKBPnG2KBG22OjfvzNMoU_h4CNVVzkUFsAn16TsJqCg=w640-h398" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p>Ragin' Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421198497767878287noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237925.post-87383818137050389332023-06-07T23:29:00.003-06:002023-06-07T23:37:39.371-06:00Let me tell you about James<p> James was born the eldest of nine kids in a Irish Catholic family. James' dad was in the Navy, and James just happened to be born in 1940, so his dad was gone quite a bit of the time trying to teach bad people the consequences of their actions. James excelled at running, winning countless meets as a high schooler, and then holding state records in the one-mile an two-mile events when he attended college. When there's nine kids in the family and your mom calls out "DINNER TIME!" you make sure you're the first one to the table, because that's a situation of "The Quick and The Hungry". </p><p>After college, James decided that he wanted a vacation, so he joined Uncle Sam's Misguided Children, and was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant. Since being an officer in the USMC wasn't hard enough, he took up running marathons as a hobby. That lasted until knee surgery in his 60's. After that he took up bike riding and competed in several races, because those damn kids needed to be put in their place.</p><p>At one point while he was stationed in Norfolk, VA, he injured his ankle. This is important because while swimming in a pool as part of his recovery, he was hit on by a female life guard who thought he looked cute. They got married about three years later. They had two boys, much to his great surprise. James once told me that if he had known that sex led to kids, he would have just joined the priesthood and remained celibate. I believed him when he said this.</p><p>James did two tours in Viet Nam. It was not a fun time. That's all that needs to be said about that.</p><p>After twenty two years of service, James figured it was time to be called "Mister", so he retired and went back to school. He worked in the computer industry in a time when MS DOS was the king of operating systems. Along the way he did his best to instill honor, work ethics and integrity into his two boys. It stuck. One went on to join the service, and the other ended up becoming the President of the company that he had started working for decades ago just to pay a few bills.</p><p>James was diagnosed with cancer around 2014. He informed his family of this by titling his email "Well, damn". He successfully fought it off twice. But when the Covidiacy made the medical establishment lose its collective mind, things got a little out of hand, and cancer started winning. James' two boys spent countless hours at the family home making sure that James and his wife were taken care of, and that James would be able to live life as he wanted to live it. He spent the last part of his life on his property, looking out at the forest that he loved and surrounded by family that he loved and who loved him. Have you heard the joke "An Introvert is someone who, when a pandemic happens, doesn't notice a change in their lifestyle"? That was James. All he needed was his wife, his sons, and a couple of his Marine Corps League buddies.</p><p>James lost his battle with cancer today. He died with his wife of over fifty years by his side, and his younger son praying the rosary at his bedside every morning.</p><p>He taught me how to drive. How to run a chainsaw and fell a tree. He taught me the joy in laughing. Jokes and practical jokes and how poking fun at a problem makes the problem easier to deal with. He taught me that freedom and responsibility are both sides of the same coin. He hammered a work ethic into me. When I first enlisted, he was the officer who swore me in. That picture remains in the dining room to this day, because that's how proud of me he was. He raised me and mentored me and guided me, and as his health failed I did everything I could to return what he did for me in service to him, to make sure he didn't ever get put into a nursing home. </p><p>He was a prickly perfectionist. When I was a teen I got t-boned by a driver who had ran a red light. He got pissed off at me for not looking both ways a fourth or fifth time. I can say that a lot of my unhealthy mental habits come from him. The perfectionism. Taking the blame for things because if somehow, somewhere if I had done some thing that I wasn't aware of I could have made X or Y happen.</p><p>But he built the parts of me that are the best. The integrity. The ability to stand my ground when I'm right, and to acknowledge my mistakes when I'm wrong. The ability to just get the job done, because dammit that's what a proper man does. </p><p>I'm going to miss him. And maybe if I live a good enough life, I'll get to see him again.</p><p>Posting is going to be rather light. I'm sure you understand.</p>Ragin' Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421198497767878287noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237925.post-25141645868209346752023-06-07T13:46:00.001-06:002023-06-07T13:46:03.054-06:00Kill the system<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhVT9VscV78cC_dMFvEN7EIRcVcz-qef-sTXzxQ4QkRgg0wAfNCroNOtAfh0YdDbr8t6-8_QLUn5D5h6WL-kvgfoM75BT16VFx0yNF5GAsspj0rMaQrWX4I4NoZ6X9VZkUErDIyxhq5Tk6vs7rPfRJSrVZO9e5t4nWReS-vkMwYOLJYECp8YA" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="701" data-original-width="828" height="543" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhVT9VscV78cC_dMFvEN7EIRcVcz-qef-sTXzxQ4QkRgg0wAfNCroNOtAfh0YdDbr8t6-8_QLUn5D5h6WL-kvgfoM75BT16VFx0yNF5GAsspj0rMaQrWX4I4NoZ6X9VZkUErDIyxhq5Tk6vs7rPfRJSrVZO9e5t4nWReS-vkMwYOLJYECp8YA=w640-h543" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p>Ragin' Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421198497767878287noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237925.post-40008284895608789042023-06-06T20:49:00.004-06:002023-06-06T20:49:37.515-06:00D-Day<iframe width="480" height="360" src="https://youtube.com/embed/1Leb7ynduCU" frameborder="0"></iframe>Ragin' Davehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421198497767878287noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5237925.post-77204291146694338422023-06-06T02:00:00.002-06:002023-06-06T02:00:00.133-06:00Day by Day is doing their annual fundraiser<p> I've tossed in what clams I can afford, given the loss in income I have right now.
