As predicted, this is now the second time you refused that offer. Make of that what you will. I think it is very telling that you won't produce the link or image in exchange for photos of my most recent Caribbean trip. It sure seems like you can't produce the link or image.

I think it is pretty easy to see that you are the one telling lies here.

Watch it!

You can once again go fuck yourself, douchebag. Your lies are legion and don’t improve any with age. They instead continue to mark you as a worthless laughing stock. Suck on that, dope.

Do you want me to stop posting here or someting.

Strange that you don't have any actual evidence to adequately substantiate that claim.

LOL! Your words expose you as a fraud. What was the best dish at the downtown Chez Franzois in the 90s? LOL! Suck on that.

This is now the third time you refused the offer. Make of that what you will. I think it is very telling that you won't produce the link or image in exchange for photos of my most recent Caribbean trip. It sure seems like you can't produce the link or image.

Hahahahaha! Dream on, dope. Its lack of...well, everything...ever leaves it high and dry.

Another 5th gr. potty mouth gem from Gerund Boy!

Mr. Peabody’s big bad boot is probably winding up for a swift kick through the room.

Nope. It's stuck in the same pile of bullshit it's been in for a while now.

Mr. Peabody has a previous existence that was mired in poop.

Mr. Peabrain finds himself there quite often.

Well, the useless slugs and simians locally known as the Whiffies still spin their wheels after becoming stuck in the muck of their childish intellectual wastelands, unable to find a single word of sense to say when they need one. It's just lying babble and stupid slanders from this crew of low-grade, broke-ass dopes in a dump. Let's recall that what was actually said about the Ivan Feldman photo when posting it was, "Oh, and see what contacts were able to send me from Tampa last night. I'm not there though..." How much transparently corrupt inflation, misdirection, and embroidery have been added by assholes from that point? The dishonest douchebags just can't help themselves.

Meanwhile, for the rational people so properly rewarded for excellence in their life's work with lofty station out here in the wonderful Sweet Spot, we have another nifty autumn day in the making. It was 43 degrees outside when I got up to greet mostly cloudy skies with winds out of the west and humidity below 50%. No significant chance of rain, and the skies should be clearing by just about noon today. From there, it will be all sun, but highs will be just in the upper 40s anyway, so keep a light jacket handy. I didn't make such a choice when heading out to grab the morning paper, but I kind of wished I had by the time I got back.

Real President Joe at the same time continues to receive inflation questions these days, most of them from dolts who don't understand that the CPI is a reflection of both prices today and prices a year ago. There are a lot of Kill Shot-level stupid people out there who just don't get it. Meanwhile, El Ding Dong is about to raise cash by selling off his downtown hotel lease to representative of Hilton Worldwide. Maybe we can move FBI headquarters now?

In other news, the Nats are moving some coaching and front office folks around as they try to make up for COVID losses as well as some staff's having been lured away by clubs without a DIY mentality. Some new guys are likely to be brought into the DC fold as well. The free agent picture begins to clear a bit with LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (28) signing with DET for 5 years and $77M. We'll see how many other names come off the board before the CBA expires.

Aleady expired of course are any chances that things will go well for sad sack Falls Church City this off-season. All gummed up by local goofs and ganders, the place is at a loss for positive news of almost any sort. The local paper is down to reporting how happy some area households are with their long-time pets. It's not really a good sign when that's the best the press can come up with. REMINDER: There are no images of the wife of 51 years in this thread.

Great update from the Sweet Spot. Ever seen any coyotes at the property?
Coyotes supposedly amongst us and doing their thing in Fairfax County.

Figure out the name of your friend that took the photo yet?

I have not. The wife says she has. Coyotes are in any case present all over the County, but are hard to spot during the day.

Hmmm. Another English language failure. You continue to pay a steep price for your lack of general education. You should have realized that ‘All those pictures’ refered to the group mocking and unmasking your bogus front-page based claims to have been in Florida. Which of course you were hot.

Good deals on Xmas wrapping paper at Dollar Tree today.

All go to one place

Face it, Linus, you were badly fucked over five years ago, and things have not gotten any better for you since. You tried to fake a trip to Floria and had your pants pulled down. So it goes, dope.

JP's fallen and he can't get up.

LOL! You got caught posting a photo that you claimed a friend took, but was really a poorly doctored photo that a professional photographer took. The fail is all on you. Your feeble and transparent efforts confirmed you are noting more than a lying fraud. That fact has been confirmed over and over again. Recently, you claimed to have dined downtown at Chez Francois in the 90s. You had to be informed that it ceased downtown operations in 1975. One fucking fail after another for you.

Check out the unpruned trees at the American Veterans Disabled for Life lately? Many are showing their brilliant autumn gold. Some leave have fallen and are being strewn about by the breezes over the granite walkways! Of course, you've never seen any of it.

A predawn spam. You are the only one known to post in the wee hours of the morning after a night of binge drinking. Of course, your CALPERS statement against interest confirms you are the spammer.

HOLY COW!... CalPERS, again?! This sucks.

Well, the CALPERS Count now reaches 235 posts since Oct 7, an average of six per day. All that shows is how down and decimated the poor Whiffies are at having their phony shit flagged over and over again. It's little more than botched English, massive levels of just plain butthurt lying, and of course childish temper tantrums that are left to these losers now. Sad.

At the same time of course, those of us with far higher levels of academic and professional attainment are enjoying all the best that life has to offer in places such as the much-envied Sweet Spot, warm and safe in our gorgeous and beautifully appointed homes on much larger than average wooded lots in the midst of the most desirable areas of NoVa. We win. It was 36 degrees when I first got up to find sunny skies, light breezes, roughly no chance of rain, and the humidity sitting short of 50%. Looks like we'll have highs in just the low 50s today, and it was again just a bit chilly as I made my way out and back to bring in the morning paper, so a light jacket might well be called for when venturing out of doors.

Real President Joe has meanwhile now signed the $1.2T infrastructure bill and moved on to have a 3-hour video meeting with Xi Jinping. No great shakes on the breaking news front, but it was a critical step in reversing the destructively boneheaded Pivot-to-Putin ploy engaged in by the god awful Ding Dong. The US lost major ground in Asia and around the Pacific Rim thanks to the Fat Boy, and repairs will take some time. These on-line discussions were a good start though.

In other news, Tony Two-Bags will apparently have a new teammate in 2022 in the person of ex-Met Noah Syndergard, thanks to a 1-year, $21M deal. The ink isn't dry on that yet, but it all sounds pretty solid at this point. The Nats have meanwhile resigned RHP Jefry Rodriguez (28) to a minor league deal. He has good stuff and a pretty good arm, but so far not the control or command needed to secure a regular big league job. He'll keep working on that.

All the work in the world of course isn't going to do worn down Falls Church City any good. They've built so many new 'Gateways' that people have lost both count and interest. Aside from dirt, noise, and diesel fumes, not much has actually come from any of it. Some missed even that, but we did get to enjoy darts and crab legs at The Broad Street in George Mason Row between 1986 and 1997. That's been about the extent of things though.

Wore a windbreaker jac to gather the mail from our box at the condo this morning.
Thanks for continuing with the Sweet Spot updates. CalPERS nonsense needs to go.

CalPERS is more interesting.

Alphabet-boi is such a fraud.

Contacts, baby. Get some.

I'm 18, in my freshman year of college. I have a pretty good p/t job that pays better than what some f/t jobs pay.

The problem's my boss. She's 36 & not bad looking at all. If my friends saw me with her, they wouldn't make fun of me because of what she looks like. They might make fun of me because she's a lot older than me. She's twice my age.

She's made it quite clear she wants to get me in her bed. She's ramping up the pressure. I'd do it, but I'm afraid she's going to get clingy & that's going to make things hard. I've tried to be nice and tell her look, I'm a clumsy kid. I don't know what to do with a real woman like her. But she says, yeah, she knows that, but considering my perf. at work, she knows I'll be a good student.

She knows I'm headed back to NYC for TG and she's come right out and told me she wants to spend this weekend with me in her bed. I'm afraid she's going to want me to spend school vacations with her instead of going back to NYC. What do I do? Do I go home with her Fri. or do I make an excuse?

Except Gerund Boy's been caught in lots of lies. This means the real fraud is El Borracho Muchacho del Gerundio.

WHY do liberals support terrorists?
WHY do liberals support the spread of AIDS??
WHY do liberals support coddling negro criminals?!?
WHY????

Tried a McRib for the first time today and it was delicious.

What a freaking coincidence that the thread suddenly went all asshole. Who could have caused such a thing?

Yeah, it exposed you as a lying fraud when caught posting a photo that you claimed a friend took, but was really a poorly doctored version of a photo that a professional photographer took.

Five Below store in Fair City Mall had an abundance of newly arrived Christmas decorations this morning that will go fast. Purchased two, 21-count set of red/green/gold Xmas ball ornaments, only $3 each!

"Oh, and see what contacts were able to send me from Tampa last night. I'm not there though..."

There were of course many such photos, all of them unmasking your faked newspaper based claim to have been in Florida when your were actually right there in Falls Church City. Remember these? How much does it still hurt to see your crooked methods laid bare like this for all to see? Chump! Asshole! Phony! Fraud!

The last one of course is the real deal. It was taken by me on April 5, 2016, at the front desk of Community Smith in midtown Atlanta where we had just had breakfast prior to riding the ECS Lincoln Town Car back out to the airport to wind up our delightful 72-hour Opening Day trip to Turner Field. Those other photos were all provided by contacts. I was not in any of SF, SEA, or NYC at the time they were taken. Ring a bell?

Baseball season is over, but we still see the place far more often than you do, as we pass by it every 4-6 weeks on our way to procure artisanal goodies in SWDC. We last did that in late October when, like most of the rest of Wash Ave, the AVDL Memorial was still suffering from the scars and ravages inflicted during the Great Pruning of 2020. The Great Replanting of 2021 sort of fizzled out after a promising start, and little sticks hardly do the place any justice. Anything like an 'enveloping canopy' is just plain gone. Perhaps wiser heads will come to prevail in 2022 and beyond,.

Well, like defrocked priests, the Whiffies do preach on, even without proper chusrches to call their own. This produces peals of laughter among normal persons but little more than that. Meanwhile, we have just another splendid day in the works out here in the oh so upscale Sweet Spot. With partly cloudy skies, it was 43 degrees when I first got up, but with more and more sunshine, we should be headed into the low 60s by mid afternoon. Nice. Low humidity again, and light breezes from the SE rounded out what made for quite a pleasant trek out and back to secure the morning paper. Busy day yesterday, as the wife went one way to head up a family charity meeting, while I needed to get checked out prior to some quick surgical maintenance work on Friday. We celebrated completion of the day's agenda with some yummy Subway sandwiches. Good eats.

Real President Joe is meanwhile angling the schedule to get to a vote on the $1.75T Build Back Better bill in the House this week and in the Senate by Xmas. GOP losers will of course oppose this idea because the provisions of the bill are so popular with voters. That's the stinking GOP for you, and our new Gov. Not Mr Rogers will for sure be part of all that very soon. Misguided voters have done the Commonwealth a big disservice by buying into the spiel of this costumed privateer.

In other news, Nats 2019 post-season legend Howie Kendrick has signed on to be a Special Assistant to the GM in PHI. After what he did to help us past LA, STL, and HOU two years ago, he deserves a tip of the cap wherever he goes and whatever he does. 'The Clank' is just an all-time magical moment.

There are no such moments at all of course in the shady history of ever-faltering Falls Church City. Home to too few amenities and far too many babbling bozos and long-term care liars and losers, the place is a flaky pastry combining all the worst sorts of layers that one could fold in from anywhere in the area. It's no wonder at all that those with any kind of money simply bypass the place entirely at every opportunity.
