Rocketman

burning out his fuse up here alone

"A Falcon 9 rocket and dozens of satellites rumbled away from Vandenberg Space Force Base, providing an early morning wakeup alarm for holiday shoppers on a clear but especially chilly Saturday morning.

After completing its job Saturday, the rocket’s first-stage successfully touched down on the football-field-sized droneship dubbed “Of Course I Still Love You,” parked in the Pacific Ocean south of the Central Coast."

what sights I'm seeing in the December sky!

Feliz Navidad

I wanna wish you a Merry Christmas!!

District elections are stupid, yet the City of Carpinteria sent me a map to draw up new districts for the 2022 elections...

now, the reason I say district elections are stupid is sometimes dummies get elected who otherwise couldn't be elected..the Santa Barbara City council has one such district-elected hombre in Oscar Guttierez...Oscar was in the news recently for allegedly suggesting old and disabled folks should not be allowed to live in fire-prone areas because it's hard to evacuate them..just think, you own home in the hills and Oscar sends the Mexican Mafia over to roust you out of your house and onto the street

“ Gutierrez asked if they could enact an ordinance to prevent old, sick and disabled people from living in the SB foothills to develop more housing in high fire areas.”

not in America, amigo

Carp is too small for districts but being a good, responsible citizen, I filled out the mapping tool anyway

simple enough

Hit Me with Your Best Shot

fire away!!

the News-Press, Independent and even Edhat have columns with tips about keeping your dogs safe during the holidays, so I thought I'd give it a shot...

LAYERING: when you're out walking your dog in December, think about the weather! it can be cold in the morning and hot in the afternoon, so it's important to layer up..

As you're walking you may need to shed a few items of clothing, just take them right off, use the dog as a rack, he won't mind as you can see him licking his chops!

then, strip down to the halter top and let the sun kiss your skin

your beautiful soft skin
