Well, that was embarrassing.
I was supposed to put up an Open Thread post on Thursday night. And I wrote one, but…
Well, I put Friday’s date on it. Oh, there was already a Friday night Open Thread post scheduled. Yeah, there would have been two show up on Friday night. As in right now.
Yeah, that was really stupid. Or careless. Or whatever word fits.
So, I moved the Thursday night post to … if you said next Thursday you’d be normal, but wrong. No, I moved it to the following Thursday. Because I already have next Thursday’s ready to go.
I suppose I could move last night’s (which was dated tonight) to next week and move next week to the following week. And I might. But the Thursday night post is related to the next night’s post, so I kinda want to keep them together.
Which means you’re reading this instead of what I had scheduled. Which I moved out two weeks, also. Because the Thursday and Friday posts kinda go together. Or something.
None of that detracts from the fact that it’s Friday Night Open Thread. You pick the topic. Something you want to talk about? Mock me mercilessly? I can take it.
Whatever you want, as always, it’s your decision. So, who wants to start?
It’ll all come out in the wash.
WTH did I just read? ‘Back to the Future’?
There truly is only one thing to be said.

Now who can argue with that…and spoken in authentic frontier gibberish.
This is the comment I will leave next week
I watched a movie this afternoon that I’d like to recommend. It’s titled The Death of Stalin, It’s very well done with a sharp wit and a true sense of dark humor. Not a movie you’d want to watch with children present as there is violence and language issues but if you have a sense of humor and a sense of irony then this is the movie for you
This movie has been banned in Russia…I guess they don’t have much of a sense of humor.
I didn’t read the whole post. Neither did Basil, I suspeect.
Did Basil mention what kind of medication he’s on?
Leon Bismark “Bix” Beiderbecke, the great jazz cornetist, was born March 10, 1903, in Davenport, Iowa.
And, catching up, Leland Stanford, the man who drove the golden spike at Promontory, Utah, that completed the transcontinental railroad (or, if you’re Barack Obama, the inter-continental railroad), was born March 9, 1824, in Watervliet, on the Hudson River in New York. He drove the spike because he was the president of the Southern Pacific railroad, which joined the eastern portion there. The spike resides today in the museum of Leland Stanford Junior University, which he founded, naming it for his son, who died at age fifteen of typhoid fever in Paris. Many of those with degrees (particularly advanced degrees) from Stanford enjoy telling people that they got their degrees from a junior university; I happen to be among their number.
I was going to mock, but I completely forgot to schedule a single post for Friday until about half past noon, so, glass houses and all that.
So, mocking both Basil AND Harvey at the same time? Awesome!
Basil is playing three-dimensional chess (with the scheduling of posts)! That was my take-away.
