The Second Belly to Belly Summit was a great sucess

Nick and the bride stopped off at Casa Trooper before jetting off to Milan today. A great time was had by all. They got to see Lisa's decorations for Christmas which were about 20% done and looked like Santa exploded or something.

I regret that I was too tired to cook but we got some great Thai food from NineD that hit the spot.

We got to talk about a lot of stuff. Wisconsin. Brooklyn. Mrs. Spinelli's great new book. The store. And the one thing that both wives could agree on.

That it is very annoying when their husbands are typing furiously on their computer and yelling at the screen. They wanted to know what's up with that?

Better than a sleeping pill!

We are always looking for tv shows to put on at the end of the night to help us go to sleep. So we were very happy to stumble on that old sitcom "Wings" with Tim Daley and Crystal Bernard. Man is it boring! It has a monotone that puts you right to sleep. Not a single laugh in any of the episodes we have seen so far.

Highly recommended if you want to catch 40 winks.

Also extra super bonus points if you can name whose that girl in the photo. She went on to star in a much more contemporary sitcom but with a totally different voice and look. In this episode of Wings these guys didn't want to date her. That was the whole premise of her more recent show.

I just can't read Crack's Blog anymore......

I mean the victim thing is going over the top. Plus Meade is posting comments hoping to get a reaction. It is really funny. The dude can't give it up and Crack has become his willing accomplice. You have to laugh.

I suppose there were some back then had money, but we weren't among them. The Depression was on. And if we had been one of those with money, there really wasn't that much to buy, outside of hogs, chickens, vegetables, and the staples, and since we raised the first three, with us it was the staples, and sometimes we bartered for them.

Daddy farmed some, and where we lived wasn't so bad for growing things. The wind had blown away most of North and West Texas, along with Oklahoma, but the eastern part of Texas was lush with greenery and the soil was rich and there was enough rain so that things grew quick and hardy. Even during dry periods the soil tended to hold some moisture, and if a crop wasn't as good as it might be, it could still turn out. In fact, when the rest of Texas was tired out and gone to dust, East Texas would sometimes be subject to terrific rainstorms and even floods. We were more likely to lose a crop to dampness than to dryness.

Lem was surprised when Brian was killed!

But we all knew it was only a matter of time. You can't do the kind of stuff he used to do and expect to get away with it. Just sayn'

Everybody is taking selfies these days!

At least they are not photographing canine genitalia.

Smaller Belly to Smaller Belly conference!

The Belly to Belly Summit will continue this Monday when the Spinelli's come to Brooklyn this Monday. Full reports after the summit.

How Amy spent her Thanksgiving!

You know what I mean.

"At least an hour. In the meantime you can address your questions to the Beagle."
"The Beagle?"

Football season has ended early for some of us....

So we all have to find a way to enjoy the games even though our teams are out of it.

Michael Haz and some his buddies have decided to restart their dance team to cheer on their Packers. I don't know how he got El Pollo Raylan and Garage Mahal to join in but they are great. Good show buddy!

Good thing we are just making this up!

The Daily News reports that a 76 year old woman was the latest victim of the knockout game.

Yvonne Small fell to the ground after being punched by her assailant on Alabama Ave. and Wortman Ave. in East New York about 11:35 a.m., according to police sources. Judging by her name it is quite possible that she is black. What kind of animal punches a 76 year old woman in the head? Is that the kind of person that you could defend? Minimize his crimes? Make excuses?

Maybe the fact that the victim is black this time might wake some people up.

I just wouldn't bet on it.

Whose that author?

Kassel, capital of the province of Hesse-Kassel

“Poor Wilhelm,” Amalie Elisabeth murmured to herself, as she gazed through the window on the snow-covered ground. That ground would turn into a very cheery and pleasant garden, come the spring. But for now, it just looked cold and bleak.

Her own mood had been cold and bleak, ever since her husband was killed in that stupid, pointless war in Poland. Mike Stearns had been right about that war, as he was right about so many things. The fact just made the landgravine’s mood bleaker, of course. Her differences with Stearns and his party still remained; extraordinarily wide in most places, if nowhere quite as deep as a chasm. Why could her own side in this great political dispute not produce a man to match him?

She’d hoped that Wilhelm Wettin would be that man, once. But for all his undoubted intelligence he’d proven too prone to short-sightedness. And now that short-sightedness had led him into a prison cell. It might yet lead him to the executioner’s block.

In an odd sort of way, though, the news of Wilhelm’s arrest had improved her spirits. Not cheered her up, certainly. But there was a greater ease about her now, a certain lightening of dark airs. Whatever else, Wilhelm had been a good friend for many years. It had pained her greatly — her husband, too — to watch him sink deeper and deeper into the mire.

He was out of it now. Whatever happened, no more blame or fault could be placed upon him. She was glad for that, if nothing else.

An Except from "Taken by Surprise" a new novel by Leslyn Amthor Spinelli.

Caroline was getting tired of going to her favorite coffee shop and being annoyed by the other patrons while she stood in line for her coffee.

First of all she was really tired of hearing football fans complain about how bad the Packers were this season. Once they lost to the lowly Giants it was time to give up the ghost already.

Then there was the constant political talk about the Governor and how he was on the verge of indictment when he had just won a hotly contested recall election. There was one tubby sweat stained wretch who stood in line every day for his latte and spouted off nonsense that the "John Doe" investigation would lead to the Governor going to jail next week. That and how to properly prepare road kill were his two topics of conversation. It was enough to make you puke.

Madison Wisconsin was a tough place to live when you are a normal person with a normal nuclear family. You know. Husband. Wife. Children. Most of the ultra-liberals were more concerned about their kids than their children. If they had any that weren't aborted.

So when this frizzy haired patculi oiled Womens studies professor started ranting about rape she tried to tune it out. But suddenly she got interested. You see it seems that her dog was raped in the local Madison dog run. Some derelict with grass stained overalls was caught with her mutt. Her blind mutt. The perp managed to run away but the dog lay whimpering and moaning with a distended anus and twisted nipples. She couldn't understand how someone could do that to her puppy.

Caroline had to set her straight. "I have seen this before" she said. "I think he took her by surprise."

Whose that girl with the strings attached!


She is one of the Real Housewife's who loves to party and did it a little too much and was snapped coming out of club this summer. She is a fun loving bimbo but most of the other ho-wives hate her guts. What is funny is that she is starting fights with Housewives from other cities which is pretty interesting. Many people think she is hot sexy but I don't see it. I mean I get it. She is a skank. And easy. So I can see why guys would want to hit that. But there seems to be strings attached.

Whose that girl with the strings attached.

A lot of people talk about it but they don't walk the walk!

This Saturday is "Small Business Saturdary" which is a promotion of American Express. Which is pretty funny because AMEX holds your money longer and charges a bigger cc discount fee than Master Card or Visa. But they do pretend to try to promote small business.

Right now things are brutal. Everyone is looking for a bargain. Consumers are deathly afraid. Afraid of the looming health care costs. Of losing their jobs. Of this economy that really sucks. So they really don't want to spend.

When you have your own business you have to make all the decisions. Like if you want to have a sale. We gave up on Black Friday sales because people are all out doing electronics at Best Buy or something. But we want to throw up a sale this weekend. So we came up with the idea of Lee Lee's bucks.

You will get a voucher for your purchase based on how much you buy. 300-600 you get 15%. 600-1000 you get 20%. Over a thousand you get 25%. Now I know it sounds like a big base line but most people spend over 300 when they come to the shop. So they will get a nice coupon to use the next time they come. Both in store and on-line.

We are also doing an on-line Cyber Monday sale. This is 25% off on anything on the website. I have found that most of the people who purchased the last few years bought only one dress. So it will be on volume not the total sale.

People say they support small business but then they go to Costco or Walmart. The era of the small Mom and Pop store is over. It is all chains. In the last year ten Mom and Pops have gone out of business on Court St. We just found out that the local Card Store is going out after Christmas. They have been there 20 years but the landlord is getting a lot of dough to throw them out. It is pretty bad. Soon it will be all chain stores.

Small business Saturday will be even more of joke than it is now.

WHAT ABOUT THE ROBE!!!!!!!!!!


Hot stuff!


So I think these meds are fucking me up. I am always tired and not as sharp as I used to be.

It is freezing cold in the house as the temp is really low in Brooklyn this weekend. So I wear my ratty robe all the time. I had it for a long time and it is big on me now since I lost a bunch of weight. Earlier in the day I was filling the coffee pot and the sleeve hung over the sink near the faucet and filled with water. What a dick right?

Anywho I was cooking dinner. I had put a pot of pasta fa zool on the burner. Now the wife says I always turn the burner up too high which is true. But this is a new stove so I plead ignorance. So I reach across the stove to turn on the oven and some how the side of the sleeve catches on fire and when I put my arm down the side goes up. Now I don't notice this as it is a thick robe and I don't feel the heat. But I smell something burning.

I look in the oven but I knew I didn't put anything in there yet but I might have left a pot inside the oven. But I didn't. Then I looked to the side. The whole of the sleeve and side was on fire. Nice!

I took it off and put it in the sink and put out the fire be beating it out and downing it in water. I don't panic in a crisis so I didn't do anything but fix it.

The wife was in the front room when she smelt the burning cloth. She came in the room and flipped out. Not that she was wrong. She says I need a keeper. Someone to follow me around to keep me out of trouble.

Can't say that she is wrong.

Marilyn's Diary

My Grandpa had a very interesting life. You would too if you were 1457 years old. When he came over from the old country he had a lot of interesting jobs.
He was a bookseller in Philly with Ben Franklin.
He sold used Conestoga Wagons on the Oregon Trail.
He really loved it when he could work as a mens room attendant.
But I would have to say his favorite job was when he was a policeman in the 1950's in New York City.
He was on the vice squad. He never rousted the hookers because he felt they were just providing a service. But he loved to go undercover in the Park restrooms to catch perverts. He never seemed to arrest anyone but he made a lot of friends.
Finally they fired him because of his habit of sexual touching.
Of himself.

Dawn was breaking as the big Hog scooted through the streets. My five whores were chattering like drunk magpies. I smelled the stink that only a street whore has after a long, busy night. The inside of my nose was raw. It happens when you’re a pig for snorting cocaine.
My nose was on fire and the stink of those whores and the gangster they were smoking seemed like invisible knives scraping to the root of my brain. I was in an evil, dangerous mood despite that pile of scratch crammed into the glove compartment.
“Goddamnit, has one of you bitches shit on herself or something?” I bellowed as I flipped the long window toward me. For a long moment there was silence.
Then Rachel, my bottom whore, cracked in a pleasing ass-kissing voice. “Daddy Baby, that ain’t no shit you smell. We been turning all night and ain’t no bathrooms in those tricks’ cars we been flipping out of. Daddy, we sure been humping for you, and what you smell is our nasty whore asses.”

It Deblasio Time!

Here is an interesting article about how former criminals are advising the new mayor Bill Deblasio.

Here is an except:

Forget Ray Kelly, Bill de Blasio is getting his policing advice from the real experts — hardened criminals.
A group of 50 ex-cons, junkies and chronic vagrants gathered at a Manhattan “Think Tank” Thursday to describe what they thought the NYPD should be doing to make their lives easier.
The felonious forum outlined a clear “get-soft-on-crime” vision.
“I like the idea of ending stop and frisk. That was the first thing that was totally there for me,” opined Mikell Green-Grand, a 49-year-old former jailbird who has convictions for grand larceny and identity theft.
Arthur Castillo, 38 — who has been convicted for possessing stolen property and assault — said he would be much obliged if the cops just left him alone to do his thing.
“Cops won’t leave us alone!” he said. “Newly released prisoners are watched by the police and a lot of us don’t feel we have an opportunity to readapt to normal life because we are treated as criminals even though we are free.”
The event, which was held in Morningside Heights, was hosted by an advisory group called Talking Transitions, run by liberal billionaire investment magnate George Soros.
The goal was to offer de Blasio tips on “policing, corrections, parole policies and more.”

You can't make this shit up.

Chris Christie is not our kind of guy

He is a traitor. He hangs out with bad people. With a smile.

Here is great post from Townhall.com written by Kurt Schlichter(link from Instapundit):

Whether we like it or not – and we don’t – there’s a significant chance that Chris Christie will be the 2016 Republican nominee. Perhaps he can use a few helpful hints from the GOP’s Tea Party/Constitutional Conservative/Actual Conservative wing.
Let’s start by establishing a baseline: We don’t like you and we don’t trust you.
Now, that’s not a deal breaker. You feel the same way about us. There is nothing that says we conservatives can’t grow to like and/or trust you. Maybe we just got off on the wrong foot. So, in that spirit, let’s share our feelings.
We feel you’re in it for yourself and that if you get elected your administration will be a festival of squishiness that would make George W. Bush look like Ted Cruz.
Getting up to talk about Mitt Romney and talking about yourself? Classless. Getting in a micturition contest with conservative warrior Rand Paul? Lame. And don’t delude yourself that we are mad because you hugged the President on the eve of the election. Our beef was your evident glee, as if you were publicly repudiating our imagined “irrational hatred.” We had beefs with Mitt Romney, but we respected him as a decent man and we saw your act as a cheap backstab designed to promote yourself when he needed you most.
Hey, you’re from Jersey. You can handle this real talk, right?
We think that you think we’re stupid. Call it a feeling or a vibe, but we are used to a certain class of Republican acting as if conservatives are drooling morons. Inevitably, these same GOP geniuses are the ones who prattled on and on about the electability of McCain and Romney. Note that they’re also giddy about you.
Whenever the fawning mainstream media – let’s see how fawning it is once you start endangering Hillary –interviews you, you always have a long list of things we conservatives have done wrong. You never offer us much credit for the little things we’ve done right, like –oh, I dunno – winning back the House.
We suspect your attitude demonstrates a willingness to disregard our concerns. After all, who cares what a bunch of dummies thinks, right? Just keep in mind that if these “dummies” stay home, you get to spend 2017 running out the clock in the Garden State while being the Curley of the Three Stooges of GOP presidential failure.
You have a real problem. Right now, a lot of conservatives – I need to emphasize, a lot – are threatening to stay home if you get nominated. Go ask Presidents McCain and Romney how that works out on election night.
Now, let’s talk about what you can do about it.

Whose that girl?

She is rocking a sixties outfit but she made her name in the seventies. She comes from the land where men thunder but she could hold her own none the less. She was a slippery cat. Almost greasy you might say. Whose that girl?

You are the commercials you watch!

I always tease the wife that the commercials on the TV channel you watch define who you are. For example if you are catching a celebrity roast on the Comedy Channel you get to see "Girls Gone Wild" videos or ads for chat lines. If you are watching the retro "MeTV" you get adds for the Little Rascal Scooter and Catheters. But I was watching Fox News yesterday and I had to laugh.

They kept having this commercial for the "Hurry Cane" which is an all Terrain cane that is made right here in the USA! It has a swiveling head that moves with your body to give you support and flexibility. I am thinking of asking the wife to buy it for me for Christmas but she might hit me on the head with a frying pan. I have been using a cane to get around with and I might need one for after my next operation. So it might come in handy.

On the other hand I have been using my sword cane which would come in handy if I run into some yutes playing the Knock out game. So maybe I should stick with that.

Fox News sure knows it's audience. Old sick white guys.

This is the kind of TV I like!


When bad things happen to good characters.

So two major characters in my favorite TV shows were killed off last night. We call it the Cartwright effect or the Red shirt syndrome in one case. And it's about fuckin' time in the second.

Detective Carter was killed in "Person of Interest." She was one of the main characters in the show as the straight NYPD cop who started out hunting Reese the man in the suit who then became his accomplice. She finally crossed the line. You see she kissed Reese and she had to die. It is the "Cartwright" effect which is when a woman would get involved with one of the boys on the Ponderosa they would immediately get run over by a horse or something. Plus she is black so that falls under the "Red Shirt" on Star Trek rule where the black security guy who beamed down with Spock, Kirk and McCoy gets turned into a pillar of salt. Being a black woman who was going to be involved with the lead meant that she had to die.

Then Clay Morrow on "Sons of Anarchy" was shot last night. Finally. He had to go. The dude had been shot, stabbed and beaten half to death for the past two season. Jax Teller has been saying he was going to kill him for two seasons and he finally did it. Now he was the third featured character in the show so it was a bit of a surprise. Especially when it was not the final episode of the season. The last couple of seasons all revolved around the conflict between Clay and Jax for control of the club. Now they will have to move to something else.

A bunch of people are citing "Game of Thrones" as the impetus behind these developments. You see on "Thrones" one of the main characters Ned Stark was killed in the first season. Plus last season another bunch of big characters were killed just like in the book. It shouldn't be such a big deal. If you are talented you can just right new characters. That's what George Martin did in this series of books. It gets old when the same characters get out of jams every week without a scratch. That is not the way it happens in real life. So it is kind of refreshing when regular episodic TV takes that route.

A-Rod is on my last nerve

So A-Rod stormed out of the hearing because Selig would not be called to testify. What a bunch of shit. This moron has been nothing but trouble since the day we signed him. Now he is holding us up because the Yankees can not make any moves until we learn what is going to happen to him. Do we get a third baseman? Are we on the hook for his salary or is he suspended without pay? What the fuck?

This is where Yankee fans really miss George. George would have done one of two things. Either he would have gone all out for A-Rod and helped him fight the case until the last dog died. Or he would have traded or cut him and just paid out the money to get rid of him. But in either case we would have know where we stand.

Fuckin' stupid juice head.

Let's hush this up!


This was featured at Drudge. It was all over the news the last couple of days.

Of course most liberal news media outlets and bloggers refuse to address it. Because that would be racist you see. Just ask Crack. Or Oprah. Or the Evil Blogger Lady. Or the Instanerd.

I know what this is like because I live in New York and I know how this goes. These animals look for people who are vulnerable. Now that I walk with a cane and lost about 40lbs I might look like one of these people. Of course I am always super alert when in the proximity of these types of yutes. But not everyone is so lucky. They better wake up.

They are living in Deblasio time.

I am getting tired of this nonsense

I am getting tired of the nonsense. What nonsense you say? The use of Catholic imagery and our beliefs for entertainment purposes.

On the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" they have this new housewife called Carelton who is a Wiccan. She has decorated her home in a Neo-Gothic style with religious imagery all over the place. There are crosses on every wall and religious articles everywhere. Even a confessional booth as illustrated in this photo. Now this idiot claims to be a Wiccan who practices "White Magic." Now they have traditionally appropriated Catholic symbols for their rites so this is no surprise. But they treated these Catholic symbols as a joke.

This was particularly galling to me because of the last episode of "The Mentalist." At the end of the episode the protagonist Patrick Jane goes to a Catholic Church to pray. Now in the last eight years of the series there is not mention that Jane is Catholic. The basic story is his hunt for the serial killer known as "Red John." We are supposed to get the payoff in the next two episodes. They had narrowed it down to seven suspects who were almost all law enforcement officers. They killed off the suspects one by one until only the head of the CBI is left. Of course that would be too easy. It looks like the final confrontation will take place in a Church. What do you want to bet that the serial killer will turn out to be a priest.

There are many strains of Catholicism. There is the touchy feely guitar Mass type where it is all peace and love all the time. But there is also the tougher one of the Nun with the rulers and the priests who didn't stand for any crap. You could sin and get forgiveness but never doubt that you were a sinner and that you did something wrong. I am of the old school of Cardinal Spellman and Cardinal Hughes and Sister Asunta not the touchy feely pabulum they feed the kids today. I wish there was someone who would stand up to this nonsense. The type of Catholicism where you don't have to apologize for going after the enemy no matter where they might be. I think those days might be past.

More and more I feel like a Dinosaur.

The Heart of the Matter

So today was doctor day and we have a plan of action.
The medication is not really cutting it as my a-fib is still going crazy and my heart is racing at unacceptable speeds. So I am going in for ablation surgery this December 9th.
I decided to wait until after Thanksgiving because I didn't want to mess up the holiday and the big shopping day right after it. I will have time to recover before Christmas so that sounds pretty good.
After the doctor we went to the little tea house that we like on Hoyt St. The owner is our new best friend which always happens when we go to a new place. I found out way too much as usual. The guy turns out to be Iranian. He was telling how he goes back and forth to go home because his Dad is sick but wants to come to America because the Doctors are so much better. Pretty funny right?
Anyways he made me this great spinach omelet with onion and tomato and lots of great Middle Eastern spices with no oil or salt. It was great. He kept pouring the tea and chatting with us. It was very nice.
Then Omar our regular car service guy who is from Bangladesh came to pick us up to go to the factory in Sunset Park. This is the factory where are stuff is made in Brooklyn. The owners and all the workers are Chinese and this was the first time Lisa had gone there. She introduced herself to all the workers and thanked them for their hard work. Then we loaded up the SUV with twenty coats and about 200 tops. Omar wouldn't let me lift a finger.
It was a typical Brooklyn day. Hanging out and drinking tea with Iranians. Being driven and helped by a dude from Bangladesh. Working with a shitpot full of Chinese. It is why it is so much fun being called a racist by a moron like the Crack Emcee.
You have to laugh.
Just not to much before the operation. Why take a chance.
