  Went to get mail on Saturday, we rarely get any mail so there's no need to see what's in the box on any daily basis. So I opened the box door and holy crap there is jammed into our regulation size "officially sanctioned" by the USPS mail box, junk mail piles of junk mail ... political junk mail. According to the propaganda stuffed ever so postal service like into our box is one titanic load of bought and paid for political campaign ads paid for by this 'non affiliated' organization and some more of that paid for by this other 'non affiliated organization' dang near an almost endless supply of political denials that ring hollow as if there were a tin can cow bell sounding the alarm for time to eat. I could suppose some of the obvious useless litter could be considered as normal for a midterm election year but and however ... every judge in Clark County is sending 'vote for me' propaganda and I didn't think a judicial candidate needed to do...

  There are 17 days until first Tuesday in November. The horrifyingly anticipated "midterm elections" is drawing closer and closer and dang if'n the shit isn't starting to fly fast and furious. Candidates are turning uglier by the minute and threats of physical violence are ominously creeping into otherwise almost normal discussion between the blues and the reds. Just so there's no blowback for picking one color over another, I went alphabetically. Seems theoretically plausible. Senate candidate debates are verbally heated, congressional debates are ridiculously accusatory, governor debates are part comedy part drama and mostly political bullshit. Mayoral candidates are in the mix and county officials are up for the vote and in Nevada, every dang last judge to sit on a Clark County bench is up for a vote. I'd be willing to bet that just about no one living in Clark County knows who all these judges might be. Two full pages of balloting midterm election and I c...

  Two of the really big stars of NFL broadcasting are splitting the sheets. Yep there's acrimony in the broadcast booth and viewers will, after this season ends with the 'super duper bowl' in 2027, no longer be able to see ESPN's Buck and Aikman working together. Oh please Mr Music tells us what's happened. Alrighty then here's the 411. Money. Isn't that the way of just about everything these days ... money. You see, Joe Buck's contract with ESPN was evidently up for a renewal which in actual real time terms ... ESPN will now have to dig deep into corporate pockets and cough up seriously big bucks to ladle over Joe Buck. Get it ...? Big Bucks for Buck. Good old Joe gots him a six year contract extension to the tune of $100 million + US dollars and Aikman got nada. Aikman's contract is up as well and Aikman being a former super duper bowl winner and Joe Buck sidekick, well, Aikman isn't worth no $100 million dollars +. Aikman opted to let his cont...

  What is in a name ... most times it's really hard to tell. Let's use trumpf's family name from back in the 'Germany' days. Trumpf's family name back in der Vaterland was "drumpf." So now I can share with you the why it is part of my continual usage of his name 'trumpf', you know change up the 'd' to a 't' and there you have it ... Drumpf is postmodern screamingly nightmarish trumpf. Fairly easy enough change up to make. I have to confess that I was using the trumpf variation long before I found out the German family name was 'drumpf'. I was pleasantly surprised. I got it close dang near right off the bat.Whose a good boy then ... why it's ... moi. So der trumpf picked himself a "new" press secretary and she's not exactly the brightest bulb in a six pack of store bought light bulbs. Truth be told ... and it shall be told right here  ... the woman's name is Katie Zacharia and she claims to be a duly...

  We hear you John and we here at skulzwerks support your declaration of war on the fuzzy douche bag and here's the skulzwerks effort of two and possibly more on the way - and then - and now back to our regularly scheduled Wednesday machine art. canyon one - canyon again - signal - disciple - bucky - I do love me a chance to stick it to the corporate man. the fuckers simply do not care about 'we the people' and it's way past time to raise some antifa hell and spill ink all over the freaks. I started on Cantor Fitzgerald and now it's on to the annoying little fuzzy testicle looking whatever that might be ... 😏

  United States Navy Fleet Week San Francisco, California. Nice place to hold an airshow. In this case, a United States Navy Fleet Week in San Fran. Lucky them. Since I was a wee laddie I've been fascinated by jets. Rockets as well but not so much as the jets. Military jets to be very specific. Air Force Thunderbirds and the Navy's Blue Angels can put on a show that at least for a brief interval, you can forget all the ugly military grinder crap and watch our military pilots in their specialty high performance jets do their thing. I've never had the privilege of being able to see the Blue Angels perform. I have had the pleasure of seeing the Air Force Thunderbirds practicing as the wife and I live not so very far from Nellis Air Force Base that is home to the Thunderbirds. Driving around our little slice of Mojave Desert you're likely to see the T-Birds in practice. Not often but often enough to get an airshow for free. The pilots are some of our military's best and...
