Dissection of the Day: The Only Ones
What happens when you let highly trained personnel go camping with their guns? Joel knows, and it's a hoot.

My crack internet provider, Mediacom, was back again today after a 36-hour outage. The technicians are adept at fixing things other than the root problem which is an important and f*cked-up something somewhere between Camp Jiggleview at some yet-to-be-discovered point along Co-ax/Fiber trail.
I am promised that a higher-paid technician will deepen the investigation this afternoon.
Meanwhile, only because the narrative has taken us to La Belly France:

Sometimes I worry about me.
Who's the hippie chick of "Clouds Got in My Way?" Can't remember and don't care enough to look it up.
But I'm like that, God save me. Jake could have been comforting me with a slight adaptation, "A Focus is a Sometime Thing."

I was up, coffeed, and ambitious at sunrise. Goal-oriented, ya might say. Get that durned shop straightened up for Phase Two of the kitchen beautification project and, at a decent hour when the neighbors are up, put the screaming diamond blade to the slate. For 30 minutes I was Mr. Achievement. Hell, Babbitt would have approached me about joining Rotary.
Then I got to the cluttered bench where I usually do crude metal work. In a far corner, on top of some chain hooks, shone the Combat Commander hammer with strut. I was happier than Betty Furness with a really white wash. Been looking for it ever since I brought the new Commanderish project home, looking in all the wrong places, like the room where I keep gun parts.
A true Rotarian would have smiled, pocketed the hammer assembly, and continued methodically accomplishing the Main Thing, checking off the shop titivation achievements one-by-one on his carefully prioritized list.
Damned clouds. Two minutes later I was at the gun room bench with the Commander parts spread out. It seemed wrong because the other half of my attention was locked on the ugly holes in the kitchen wall. But what pretty steel parts...
I was the starving donkey between two hay stacks. Clearly a decision was called for. So I came in and wrote it up for the furshlugginer internet.
