RainCaster's Journal18 months sober
As of yesterday. From now on, I'll be counting my birthdays in years instead of months. God is good!
New to Medicare, what do I need to know?
I turn 65 this year, so every company on earth it seems wants me to sign up for their Medicare related services. So far, it tossed all that junk mail.
Is there anything useful that I should post attention to? I'm still employed so I have his health insurance for now. Thinking more about retirement though, sleeping in has its appeal
Black Adam {2022}
Not impressed. It was so bad that I was expecting Sylvester Stallone to do a guest cameo. Far too long, they needed to leave a lot more on the cutting room floor.
TNF sucks-adverts on Amazon Prime?
WTF? After paying my annual bill for Amazon video streaming, I still have to watch just as many commercials as if this was on a network.
First world problems.
Bullet Train with Brad Pitt
This was the all time bloodiest movie I have ever seen. It makes Kill Bill seem tame in comparison. Yet it was also a good comedy set the same time.
Many great cameos, too.
AM radio may not be in your next car
I feel so bad for the RW media that had plagued the AM band for the last 30 years.

We are watching history
In my lifetime, I have seen and been part of many historic happenings. I can remember the Berlin Wall coming down, and the end of the USSR. I can remember shaking President Nixon's hand, then hearing him step down from office a year later. I was there for the beginning of the end of the GOP - when the "Great Communicator" first ran for the presidency. I can still remember my sense of absolute stupidity at Bush Sr.s "1000 points of light" and the bullshit of the "compassionate conservative" doctrine. I remember my wife getting me up early one weekend to watch Princess Diana get married. Then I was appalled at the lies Baby Bush fed us so he could go to war with Saddam Hussein. Then there was 9-11.
Now I'm here to see the final death rattle of the GOP as DFT trots out another loser round. I think I will still be here to witness the end of Putin's Russia and the financial collapse of the PRC.
What other historic moments have you experienced?
Pence on NBC - what a weak limp POS
This clown has no spine.
Never did.
Never will.
Who the hell would ever vote for him?
Latest GOP tactic
I just got a text from someone claiming to be a Dem, and suggesting that I hand in my ballot at an address almost 180 miles away. Fuck that, I already turned mine in at the fire station 2 miles away.
