Very good production values for a web-based commercial from a bunch of vendors trying to sell their wares by saving the Earth from Aliens. It certainly caught my attention.

Palate Cleanser – Robot haircutter
Just as long as SkyNet doesn’t get any funny ideas when I sit in that metal collar. Also, instead of talking weather and sports, the robot has GOT to do hardcore politics. No ifs or buts. Your (mileage | hair | conversation) will vary… I’ll stick with Mustache Pete’s! (H/T: IEEE Spectrum)
Palate Cleanser: OK, I just could not help myself. I’ll just leave this here.
Heh! OK, can you follow suit? (H/T: Powerline)
Palate Cleanser (literally): “Where Restaurants Have Reopened Across the U.S.”
America eats out. A lot! One of the things that I kinda knew but was hammered home as local groceries ran out of things was that there are TWO logistic chains – one residential and one for anything commercial. That latter part was about 40% of our food supply – and was caught right in … Read more
Palate Cleanser – because who hasn’t strapped a grenade to a propane tank before, right?
Yes, a bit nuts, these two. Sauntering about with chips in a bag… Wonder what the C-level staff at AmeriGas thought about how their products is being used. Hey, does doing this contribute to Global Warming hysteria??? (H/T: Caveman Circus)
Does this mean that Zandra Rice-Hawkins is gonna call me a misogynist again (and again and again)? – Part 2
Yes, the Executive Director of out-of-state-financed Granite State Progress and Concord City Councilor (what a scary thought from a Liberty standpoint of those two positions co-joined at the ankles) Zandra Rice-Hawkins has oft not been enthralled with GraniteGrok. This won’t help as it is strictly politically incorrect – I can see the steam coming out … Read more
Palate Cleanser: jumping out of a perfectly good airplane at 25K feet – parachute IS optional
Or actually, parachute just isn’t there. At all. Would YOU decide to jump out where’s there not enough oxygen to sustain you and attempt to fly yourself into a net with no backup chute in case you change your mind or seeing that “stuff” just went sideways?
Palate Cleanser: Almost ANYthing is considered to be a Coronavirus death nowadays
Alternative Title: Men, be mindful of what you say even when telling the truth:
Palate Cleanser – doesn’t help when the emails go to the “boss”
Heh! Doug left GraniteGrok quite some time ago. That said, it seems like scammers are always out of date. Doesn’t help when the email telling “you” that you’ve been fired goes to the “boss”. I actually get this type of email on a regular basis: From: “Human Resources Manager” To: doug@granitegrok.com Sent: 4/30/2020 5:08:33 AM … Read more
Palate Cleanser – Yes, I AM!
‘Course, they think I’m older than dirt already so it’s not much of a stretch. The Grandson? No, he won’t believe it once he gets old enough to know what Google is. Now, bringing up AltaVista is a different conundrum for them all. Do YOU remember it? And yes, I’m older than that… (H/T: Sad … Read more
Palate Cleanser – “Quarantine!” by Home Free
Heh! I used to watch this group on a show called “The Sing Off” – an acapella singing competition that ran for a few years a few years ago now. They were pretty good then but this semi-cover and adaption of “Honesty” just hits the spot: (H/T: DCE over at Weekend Pundit)
Palate Cleanser (sorta): How times can “Change” how you view things
Amazing, isn’t it. Same stuff, different times – just that the intent and purpose changes. Unless, of course, you’re one of those criminals that judges, sheriffs, and police chiefs are letting out of jail because they were fearful that you’d get COVID-19? (H/T: Bookworm)
Palate Cleanser – Up and OVER!
Sometimes, it’s enough to just sit back and watch someone else do something cool! pic.twitter.com/BrLo90zTP7 — Unusual Videos (@UnusualVideos) February 20, 2020 (H/T: PJ Media)
Palate Cleanser – It’s a freaking laser!
When you think of being able to target a drone, or a swarm of drones, all moving all over the place, this is a rather amazing bit of kit. And fits in the back of a truck!
Palate Cleanser – Johnny Carson doing Ronald Reagan White House adaptation of Abbot & Costello’s “Whose on First?”
Sent in by ‘Grok Friend Leo Plante (who is also running for the NH House from Dublin / Cheshire District 9 – and whom I have endorsed personally -Skip) – Thanks!
Palate Cleanser: Let’s see how old you are – did you recognize them BOTH right away?
There is truth in these two line: There is nothing new under the sun What comes around goes around Frankly, I really don’t care what happens to the Prince and Markle. It just shows that Royalty aren’t always selected for their brain power and some women are just plain jerks in separating their husbands from … Read more
Palate Cleanser: real life or 3D drawing?
Watching this is pretty amazing! You are actually watching the drawing done, so you know it’s on paper, but when it’s done, it is SO well done you still think it is real and not a drawing! (H/T: OddityCentral)
Palate Cleanser – The Porch Pirate Glitter/Fart Spray is Back!
This time of year, gazillions of packages are left by doors and garages to bring happiness to the recipients (and the delivery companies who do the work and gather the fees – capitalism – gotta love it (even as NH State Senator Dan Feltes hates it).
This is a rather sick joke, eh?
If it wasn’t for Engels, Marx would have gone belly up – and over a hundred million people last century might not have died because of his political ideology might not have become widespread. That said, this is a cruel joke but even now (just watch pretty much any of the Democrat Prez wannabees spending … Read more
