Cataract eyes

Mine, to be exact. After almost a year of foggy vision, I’ve finally given in to the inevitable and made an appointment for cataract surgery. On the 18th, I’ll get tested and a follow-up consultation set. And on the third date will be the surgery on one eye, followed by several weeks of healing, and then the second eye.

Reiki self-treatment and channeling for others has helped with this rather common problem of aging, but not eliminated the difficulties with driving and reading. So surgery it will be. Although it may not come until next year when Cedar Fever season is over. All the sneezing and eye itching and watering that accompanies that may interfere. We’ll find out.

Rule 5: Wellen Rocha

A Man in a Dress

I apologize in advance to transgenders everywhere. If you’ve had your ding-dong removed and replaced with a yoni and are pumped full of hormones, I think (unlike PJMedia’s Paula Bolyard) that you can legitimately claim to be a sort of ersatz female. But I agree with her that doesn’t qualify you to be the first female four-star admiral in the public health service.

Especially not if Lyin’ Biden, our babbling old fool of a president, who allegedly shit his pants at the Vatican, says you are. No, sorry, you’re just a man in a dress. And Biden is a moron.

The Alec Baldwin debacle

Delicious irony that the Hollyweird actor best known for his anti-2nd Amendment tirades fails to do the standard preliminary check of a firearm in his hand and kills a co-worker. What a maroon!

As the local sheriff said: “This is obviously a tragedy and it was avoidable, so right now it’s a criminal investigation.”

Awaiting Wheat’s stone

This is the month the Oklahoma tombstone makers forecast they’d have OCS chum Russell Wheat’s marker up in Higgins, Texas. That was back in May when they had a granite shortage thanks to the Wuhan Virus and various lockdowns. Sure hope they don’t have to extend it to a later month.

Seems increasingly obvious that the virus should be called the Wuhan Virus and not some obscuring name like Covid 19 or the Coronavirus (which you presumably can get if you drink Corona beer).

Rule 5: Savannah Sievers

Ah, Halloween

It will be a quiet evening at the mini-rancho, with few or no trick-or-treaters. Not like the olden days at Rancho Roly Poly, when we regularly drew a few dozen, mostly small Korean kids with their parents lingering in the background. Then the Hispanic “kids” would arrive in a van and fan out across the street. We’d quickly run out of goodies and have to turn the porch light off.
