HELLO from the desert southwest. Happy New Year!
The University of Texas Longhorns played the University of Washington Huskies recently, losing the game. My brother is a big Longhorns fan, so he hoisted the school’s flag outside his home and asked me to pose under the flag. His special request to me, was for me to give him the middle finger as I stood under the Texas flag, as he was going to send the image to a coworker who was a Washington State fan (Cougars) and the coworker wanted Texas to beat his (the coworker’s) intrastate rivals- the Huskies... hence the request for the middle finger gesture in support of Texas, and against Washington.
I, being an extrovert, decided to give a top-notch performance by crossing my arms and forming an x with both forearms, as I gave the middle finger (as requested) using both of my hands.
Upon inspection of the image where I am the subject, I thought that what I was REALLY doing was giving those middle fingers to 2023. Some might say 2022 deserved the middle fingers, but I say- au contraire... 2023, WE ARE NOT PUTTING UP WITH THE RIDICULOUS NONSENSE IN 2023 LIKE WE DID IN 2022.
Perhaps this seems childish or immature... but I can assure the reader that this writer has had it with the past nonsense of 2021 & 2022, and has absolutely no intention of repeating such bull*** in 2023. Full stop. PERIOD. This dog won’t hunt!

6 minutes until 2023 on west coast and 7 minutes to New Thread.
Hello dear FRiend!
Happy New Year- all kidding and grousing aside!
And to you!
I still have hope.
After VISITING Wash., DC, in Jan. of 2021... my cohort and I stopped at a New Mexico fireworks store on our way back west to our homes (AZ & CA.)
I purchased around $600 of the good stuff for my brother and a coworker of his.
Last year, my brother shot off all but 6 mortars. Tonight, we sent the last 6 rounds skyward. I had forgotten how good the legal stuff (500 grams max, of kapow!) really is in practice.
The sky was teeming with fireworks all evening long, but reached a spectacular cresendo as one might imagine at 12 o’clock midnight. To everyone’s credit, folks have for the most part emptied their personal arsenals and have now retreated to their particular domiciles with a couple of exceptions.
I agree!!!
No more bs.
My ancestors didnโt give their lives or go to war willing to give their lives for this bs.
Freedom for all.
Happy New Year, freepersup, and God bless you and yours!
Nothing like the “good stuff” when it comes to fireworks. My son’s and I would go find it back in the day. My son-in-law who lives in South Carolina shows off his good stuff and gives us the raspberries. He can get some mighty “kapow” ๐งจ๐๐back there. It’s all illegal here in the NW.
Ha! HAPPY New Year!
