Happened to see this in ‘York‘, Maine, today. Couldn’t miss it. It was at eye level.
No comment. Just posting it as a Freudian slip by nature.

This really is a Freudian Slip as opposed to a typo per se.
McDonald’s is NOT going to be amused — assuming they actually care about what is said in the ‘Daily Mail‘, though we know that folks in the U.S. sure do read it (e.g., Foreman of Trump’s jury).
Amazing that they don’t catch these howlers. A sad sign of the times — the need to continually RUSH story to the media.
I had to share this with YOU. Enjoy.

A very special birthday to a very special man — who until last year was the ‘man with no birthday‘.
I, of course, felt BAD for him. Everybody should have a birthday. So, I assigned him, ‘April 1’, a very special day for I, as his official birthday. NO, he was NOT gracious enough to thank me. {But, I did not expect it from him.}
Well, it appears that he, MIRACULOUSLY, discovered his Birth Certificate. He claims that it got erroneously filed — of all places — Hawaii. Yes, his birth certificate, he claims, was found in Hawaii. You go figure.
The Vatican had initially assumed that the birth certificate pegged his birthday as December 31, 1944.
Ooops! NO. Big Mistake. He is much, much, much youger.
His birth certificate supposedly says he was born December 31, 1954. He is still just a baby. Just 70 years old.
So, he will continue to be an elector till 2034.

‘Transgender Visibility Day‘, set for March 31 of each year (one day, conveniently, ahead of April 1), happened to fall on Easter this year. That as you must know caused quite a bit of consternation — if not commotion, in some quarters.
To avoid this happening again, the organizers/sponsors have decided to change the date — shift it so that it cannot fall on a major religious holiday.
So, they have come up with the Fourth Thursday of November (each year) as of 2025.
Good choice. Now it cannot fall on Easter, the Advent or Christmas. That is a relief.

Yep, that is me … all me … in earnest anticipation of Christmas 2024.

It is being erected.
Won’t, alas, be as big as the original.
But, it will be the ‘Alton Stonehenge‘.
I will hold sun worshipping ceremonies within it. Stay tuned.
IF you are a bona fide sun worshipper I will give you directions.
We want to keep riff-raff & non-believers at bay.
Enjoy.

This is but a start.
Still a LONG way to go — maybe another 20 lbs.
I had this look perfected a couple of times — albeit not recently.
People say it is all my walking. I beg to differ. Lack of food. SMILE.

Captured me 100%. Wow. Amazing. Maybe the ears are a tad big — & MAYBE the stomach is still a tad too flattering. But, I am impressed. I like it. I am glad I was able to help.

This was at the ‘Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroad’ in Meredith, New Hampshire.
IF I am in Meredith (as I was today), I invariably stop at the train station. That railway & I go back to 1996 — 27-years. I lived in a house, in Meredith, that abutted the line.
I walked up to the Locomotive #302 — an EMD GP7.
And I saw the CUTE HAMSTER. He scurried off a BIT — but then poked his head up. I lucked out.
ENJOY. SMILE.

This is in a cute garden, tended by a rather famous, now long retired orthopedic surgeon, in ‘Alton‘ — about 3/4 mile from my place. He put it up this week.
It cracked me up. Nothing, but nothing, from with a blackface scarecrow. Perfectly kosher.
But, I just worry about the local crows.
I am the ONLY NON-WHITE person they normally see — & I, as some of you have worked out, is not black. Just a dark, dirty brown — with a suntan on top of that.
They definitely have no exposure to black people this far north. I kid YOU NOT.
So, I am curious if this scarecrow will work. Poor crows. You shouldn’t confuse them such.
