Flagless

[JustGeorge]

When I lived in Minnesota I considered short sleeve shirt weather summer.

Today is just another cloudy gloomy day, but July is coming up soon and the weather is predicted to change at the start of July.

Iowa used to have a spring in which 50s-70s were common temps, and it would rain, often with severe thundershowers. Now we tend to go straight from winter to summer, and the thunderstorms hit in the fall.

We didn't get a whole lot of big storms this year, but we did get some rain, and it didn't go straight from 40 to 90, to that was a plus, too.

I woke up to no flags this morning...

Looking at the newest threads, I am thinking this is likely the fault of either US politicians, or Jesus. Or both.

Probably US politicians. Jesus is likely working on a Saturday...

Oh, you mean you wake up with no alerts. What you need is a leg lamp. That will make everything better.

A major award?

A major award?

Its a prop from the film A Christmas Story. Its a lamp that a man buys and forces his wife to display in the main room of their house. He treasures the lamp, but she loathes it. Its supposed to be funny.

<sigh> Skip to 4:10, You probably do not need the build up:

 

[Hold]

Nah, only from me.

Actually, I should really be outside, but it’s 37C here in the Golfe du Morbihan and I’ve just got back from a swim so I’m enjoying a restorative cup of tea indoors:

Back home tomorrow, via an overnight stop in St. Malo before putting the car on the ferry to Portsmouth.

I can only sympathize with your present discomfort...

We don't have a leg lamp, but we have a lot of things with that relationship around here(things one person loves, and another loathes). It hasn't helped any. Not sure its hindered any, either.

No, he's Jewish. He works Sun to Fri.

Great! Can I order one for the yard?

One more flag:

@Stevicus beat you to that one!

No, he's Jewish. He works Sun to Fri.

The Jesus I know is Catholic(more of the cultural sort than observant), and works the whole week through.

 

[Subduction Zone]

@Stevicus beat you to that one!

Dang it! Now I remember. I liked that so much that I copied it and sent it to a friend on Facebook Messenger. Then I forgot where I got it from (I assumed off of my feed on Facebook) and posted it here.

My apologies to Stevicus. I don't want to take credit for his hilarious find.

If we applied truth in advertising to flags, this might be what ours looks like:

Odd, that. My copy of the NT says he's a circumcised Jewish lad who worships the Jewish God.

The guy I know works owns a pizza joint across town.

Not bad food for the price, really.

Without a doubt, a good pizza is worth the extra effort, even if it's walking across town!
