One of the joys of being retired is not having to work for the stupid idiots who not only got promoted ahead of you, but made your life miserable because because they were either: a. Psycho-bitches who couldn’t hold together a relationship and acted out their marital shortcomings on all male underlings available; or b. Incompetent dumb-shits whose only skill was first class ass-kissing which their superiors lapped-up because they were ass-kissers first and advanced (on their knees) to higher positions (usually bent over) of authority.
Sorry, got side-tracked, and didn’t mean to get onto a personal rant, for if I did I’d probably carry on about how Mr Insider, Newt Ginggrinch, AKA former Speaker of the House and Fanni Mae lobbyist historian is trying to portray himself as a political outsider and making the GOP primary even more of a circus by participating in a debate hosted by Donald Trump [don’t even get me started on his morality (but he’s been saved and repented) so all is forgiven; we love a redemption story]. Well fuck you Newt. Jesus may love you, but in my opinion you’re still an asshole.
Woa there. I’m getting carried away. Tis the season to be jolly. And go into deeper debt by …… Better not go there.
Bottom line is: Hansi and the Wife have been full time grand-parenting cause the daughter is out of state for two weeks in training for a new job, and her husband has to work, and we be providing child care for the two grandsons. Wouldn’t have it any other way, but it sure cuts into some prime-time hallucinating for Hansi. So in the interim, while I stay hallucination-free, I thought ,I’d mine the Archives and re-post a some of my earlier turds gems for your edification.
The above drawing is by my eight year old.

Oh my. LMAO regarding Newt. Reminder: Choice c) All the listed. Enjoy the time with the grandkids … and glad to see the above artist is a chip off the block.
First of all, your grandson’s got a good and steady drawing hand. Really good for and 8-year old. Enjoy the grandbabies. 🙂
Looks like Newt’s got some redeeming qualities, being a historian and whatnot. Never heard that applied to a politician before. Real interesting. As far as The Donald moderating the debate, I wonder how he’s gonna wear his hair.
Man, I sure know what the first paragraph is all about. In Miami school system they all are at the top by nepotism, cronyism, gender, sexual favors, race and ethnicity and in most cases are the most incompetent and egotistical. One school board member had 34 relatives working for the system. White guys-forget it. One question. Why are the grandchildren such a delight and you wish your own kids were never born?
Glad you are having fun with the baby sitting. And yep, so right about the Newtster. I too was troubled by stupid advancing over talent. Ass-kissers much all go to the same finishing school.
Best laugh I’ve had all week. Love your succinct description of how to get ahead in the workplace. I look forward to reading about some of your insights into the minds of the millenial generation over the next couple of weeks.
Grandparenting must keep you young in spirit as your posts reveal! Claimed redemption: Greatest excuse ever invented by the human.
Yea, the claimed redemption thing kinda gives ya a free pass to do it all over again.
Thanks to all for your comments. Caring for two boys is a joy, but having a three year old in the house for 12 hours a day really cuts into ones blogging time. “Grampa, can you play with me?” 🙂

Hansi,
So you loved your former bosses, particularly the female one. I got that much. 🙂
Nice drawing, too. Pretty excellent for an eight-year-old. Helluva lot better than anything I did at that age. I couldn’t even write good! And some people think this is funny, but I never did learn to write cursive. Never. To this day, I have to print everything. LOL.
Change your font and you be writing cursive :) My problem is cursing too much when writing.

Grand kids…..love my granddaughter to death and if I need nay help with a PC all I have to do is ask her……
LOL! As far as I’m concerned, you can bitch about Newt as much as you want. 🙂
Hansi,
An idea for your tombstone. “Played well with grandkids.” although by the time you are due for a tombstone it will probably be great-grandkids.
Lets hope so
