Wednesday Walkabout Photos

As some of you might know, I have reduced my semi-prodigious output on this blog -- now in its 16th inglorious year of daily postings -- from 4 days a week to a manageable 3. This in accordance with my newfound status as an MOSL, a Man Of Semi Leisure.

Sadly, that meant excising the very popular Thursday Photo Funnies. Replaced by, well you know from the title of today's post. 

With my new Titanium hip in place and functioning at 98% levels (I'm choosing to ignore the creaking noise) I have been happily out and about. Last weekend for example, I managed an easy 10,000 steps. Fueled  in part by adrenaline and my searing hatred for our Merkin-Sporting Dictator. 

OK, preamble over, let's get to the photos and the pithy explanatory captions. 

Including the shot above of Habanero Salsa (I love spicy foods) and the refried black beans. Both purchased at La Flama, after a night of dining on Himalayan Food with my friends Paul and Deanna. 

"Best Black Beans you've ever tasted," says Paul. 

And I agree.

One of my favorite signs seen at the No Kings Protest.

Damn, it was good to be in the company of critical thinkers.

Here's Ms. Muse and friends sticking it to the man 

on the wild streets of downtown Pasadena.

The final repairs have been made to this (???). 

It fronts an apartment building on Culver Blvd.

With water spouting from the marlin's mouth, 

it is the height of 1960's Kitsch.

The recently bombed fertility clinic in Palm Springs.

Compliments of another Right Wing loony, 

who roam too many of our streets.

And what's a night out in PS 

without a visit to Showtunes Night at Quadz. 

A new cultural experience for me and Ms. Muse and her cousins.

Way, way east of PS, we biked by this new

development -- a massive 600 acre community, 

compliments of Mickey.

Is that the Pope?

Right here in Ventura?

No, but awfully close.

This was captured

on my home security camera about midnight.

My snarling (sound on) Trumpster neighbor and his gnarly barking dog, 

taking issue with the upside down flag hanging off

my front porch. What did I say

about Right Wing Loonies?
