Dude. What tha fuck?

Here’s an e-mail we received last week from Beto:
“Hi again, guys. Thinking of Rick’s Whatever folder and posts, I thought he (and you) could enjoy these funny/peculiar/intriguing pics. Hopefully most of them are new to you all. I bet David will love #1’s furry leg. Wink I have no clue what the dude is doing there (could he be an itinerant artist or Gypsy?), but he’s HOT AS HELL, isn’t he?! Hugs, Beto. P.S.: It just crossed my mind that Bill S could regard some of these as story pics. 🙂 ”
We loved the pics and found ourselves alternately laughing – and saying “what the fuck?” Beto sent the first 41 pics here and I added the last 7. THANK YOU, Beto for some chuckles and what-the-fucks! Love ya, babe. xoxo David (and Ben)

Dude. It’s a Friends Friday peek into Rick’s “whatever” folder!

Hey, guys. It’s Rick. I think maybe it’s time for a “Friends Friday” post – on Friday 🙂
These pics are from my “whatever” folder… a place where I put pics I run across on the web that “do it for me” for WHATEVER reason. They make a nice variety and I hope you like them as much as I do. xoxo Rick and Keon


It’s Friday night and the kids are all in Springfield – spending a few days with the grandparents. It’s so cool they’re finally getting to do that… after all the covid crap.
The grands have big plans for the visit. Fantastic caverns, Discovery center of Springfield, Wonders of wildlife museum and aquarium and more. They’ll be bringing the kids back Monday in time for the big Labor Day (Bella Day) celebration.
While the kids are away, we “adults” have some plans of our own. Tomorrow night, we’re going to go over to the “rainbow aerie” for a cookout and some fun in the giant hot tub. Then, Sunday evening, we’ll be at David and Ben’s place for dinner and some hot tub fun of a somewhat more intimate nature.
We’ll be missing the kids, but, hey… some time for getting naked and stoned and dipped in the hot tubs is pretty fuckin’ cool 🙂
We hope all of you have wonderful, safe, happy Labor day holidays. We wish you good health and time with friends and/or family as the days get shorter and summer begins to fade away. We love you!

It’s a “Friends Friday” peek into Rick’s “whatever” folder!

Hey, guys. It’s Rick. Sorry I didn’t get this posted yesterday so it would have been “Friday,” but I’m often a day late. “Whatever” posts are my favorite because they’re fun and can be absolutely anything. Hope you enjoy the variety!


We’ve been closely following the “Respect for Marriage Act” recently passed by the House of Representatives:
“House Moves to Protect Same-Sex Marriage From Supreme Court Reversal.
The legislation, which garnered some Republican support, would recognize same-sex marriages at the federal level. It faces an uncertain path in the Senate.”
Travon asked Keon and me what it would mean if the Supreme Court “did away with gay marriage”. We told him we’d be just as married as ever… no matter what a bunch of bigoted old farts in Washington decide. We didn’t tell him it’d mean we wouldn’t live in Missouri any more because he’s our son and and we love him and wouldn’t upset him unless/until it’s necessary.
We’re cautiously optimistic that the 71% of Americans who support gay marriage will force at least 10 Republicans to support the legislation in the Senate. We can always hope 🙂
Much love. Rick and Keon
