Hi Deadsplinters! Hope you are having a good weekend so far.
I think I’m going to wash my car and I have some other household projects to work on.
How about you, got any big, exciting plans?

Maybe I should save this for Brain Drain, but I’ve always liked him and enjoyed this:

Jason needs to do what he wants but I will miss watching him. Bad Words is probably the funniest movie I’ve ever seen.
I’ve liked him in everything I’ve seen him in. He’s surprisingly well adjusted for someone who was a child actor. I listen to his podcast and they joke about his upbringing but it wasn’t happy. The typical Hollywood story of parents using their children as a paycheck. Did you know he’s married to Paul Having My Baby Anka’s daughter? They been together a long time. He seems like a good guy.
Speaking of Jasons:

Now it seems though that this was his overzealous legal team’s idea, not his. Maybe they got the idea from this:

Huzzah, I’m finally off night shift! Not so huzzah, they did a supervisor rotation and we got the problem child supervisor. The supervisor we lose was a decent sort who did his job and let us do ours. Nothing lasts forever…
Gotta drive my parents to the clinic for their 4th CoVID vax. Then it’s consume enough caffeine to stay away till 11pm tonight.

Little league opening day for this crew.
I’ll be attending a performance of Ragtime this evening.
Day 3, night 2 of puppy sitting & now day 3 of feeding. Puppy is exhausting me. Gets up with the sun, discovered bunnies yesterday, is a digger, eats grass by biting holes in my lawn, knows that I will take her outside if she barks by the door but waits to come back inside to pee! They make puppies cute so you don’t kill them. Cats are different neighbors, just feed them, clean litter & make sure dominant one doesn’t eat other one’s food. Catch, I have to leave puppy alone to feed cats, not good.
In case you’re wondering, that kid Bob who was encouraged to go into the rugby game by his “best teammate ever” ended up with a broken leg, several busted ribs and a ruptured spleen. It turns out that he was actually a shit rugby player, the other team was indeed much bigger than his, and the “best teammate ever” went on to work for an investment bank in sales while Bob drank and abused painkillers.
