A Keep Warm and Buy as Little as Possible Wrangle


We have the capitalists nervous already, y'all.


Your local small business needs your help.


I will make one exception.


Yeah, gonna keep it light today.  More Funnies tomorrow, and back to the cold, cruel reality of a sick sad world on Cyber Monday.

Today it's turkey tetrazzini, maybe some turkey enchiladas, and mostly a collection of tryptophan-induced soothers.


Lighter, PDid.


Still too mean, dude.


(inner voice: Better.)

Don't wait for Giving Tuesday; be helpful now if you can.


Tens of thousands, not hundreds; I have been corrected.  Okay.  You ever driven to San Antonio without stopping until Frank's in Schulenburg (you know, before it closed) and then pissed steadily for a minute and 45 seconds?  My response is the same: who's counting?


Read Joe's thread.


Democrats: Do NOT let Republicans get to the left of you on this.


(I thought you said this was gonna be light.)  Yeah.  Okay.

We’ve had great turnout for the fabulous show of art and photographs old and new curated by Geoff Winningham.

But we still have amazing prints to sell. So come and buy this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, and help support Save Buffalo Bayou and Friends of Don Greene.

All the work in the show focuses on Buffalo Bayou, from maps and postcards promoting the health benefits of 1836 Houston to recent photographs documenting flora and fauna.

Here is a link to the catalogue. Besides Winningham and 19th century photographers, the show also includes photography by Jim Olive and George O. Jackson, as well as artwork by Janice Freeman.
Gabriela Rodríguez (3rd Grade, Treasure Forest Elementary School), “Legend of the White Buffalo,” 2016. 
Signed, archival pigment print from an original monoprint.

Don’t forget to check out the lovely large-format photos and artwork on display in the café itself, 2604 Dunlavy. The bulk of the show is hung in the gallery, located next door at 1709 Westheimer.

“Baptism in Buffalo Bayou,” ca 1900-1914. Baptism on the South Bank of Buffalo Bayou, opposite Glenwood Cemetery. Anonymous photographer.


The Ghost Adventures crew investigated this place a few years ago.
