Good morning, everybody. I am so excited for today's video. This is a video I have been wanting to film for months now. I have been caught up on TikTok for the past couple of months watching people create rugs using a rug tufting gun. And I got one of my own, and today we are going to be going through the entire process of creating our very own rug. I have absolutely zero skill set with a rug tufting gun. This is actually a little bit intimidating, you guys. I think rug making has become really popularized lately through social media, so rug guns have been kind of hard to come by. I actually sat on my computer for hours one day on an eBay auction, trying to get this rug gun, and I ended up winning the auction. So I was very, very excited to be able to get this rug tufting gun. This is a cut pile gun, if you were curious. There is a loot pile, a cut pile, and I believe you can also get guns that have both in them. Something about the rug making process just looks so satisfying to me. I love that all you have to use is a simple yarn.  I also wanna thank today's video sponsor, Ritual.  Do not worry, you guys. They have essential vitamins for men, children, and women. However, their main product is the woman's multivitamin made by women for women, of course, and the reason I'm kind of touching on that aspect is because 94% of my channel is composed of women. Now, I've been taking my Ritual vitamins for about almost two weeks now, and you guys, I have been absolutely loving them. I am somebody that I'm not going to lie to you guys. I'm a little bit of a hypochondriac. Like whenever anything happens with my body, I instantly go to Google and I'm like, what is this, what is this, what is this? And I think of the worst possible alternatives always. However, I feel like just taking a multivitamin every single day just gives me a little bit of clarity that I'm doing something good for my body. I'm adding proper nutrients that I might not already have.  I always feel like vitamins taste disgusting, and these ones honestly taste good, like I look forward to taking them, which is really nice. Ritual actually contains nine high-quality ingredients that are difficult to get enough of every single day, even with a healthy diet. Some of these ingredients include vitamin E, vegan omega-3 from algae, iron, magnesium, folate, vitamin K-12, and vitamin B-12. And not to mention Ritual is vegan-friendly, sugar-free, non-GMO, gluten and allergen-free, and free of any sketchy additives or fillers. Again, they have products for men, women, and children of every single age range, and you can go ahead and use my link in the description box below, which is Ritual.com-slash-loan-fox, and they're actually giving you guys 10% off of your subscription, which is absolutely incredible. I'm intimidated, I am, I'm intimidated by this.  This is absolutely intimidating. Like, imagine this coming at you, like I'm scared. Now, I was introduced to tufting a couple of months back when I created this wall decor piece using a punch needle tool. Now, a punch needle tool is essentially the same exact thing as rug tufting, but it creates a loop pile on the backside, and it's very tedious. You kind of have to do each one one by one, but if you do have a rug tufting gun, the process goes so much quicker and you can create rugs a lot faster. So let's go ahead and talk about the supplies. Of course, the first thing is your rug tufting gun. Then you're also going to need some yarn to use within your gun. You can go with cotton, acrylic, or wool, whatever you wanna go for, a pair of scissors, and then as far as the backing material, you can either use monk's cloth, which does cost a little bit more, or you can go with the cheaper alternative, which was burlap, and I also felt like the burlap was honestly easier to use. And last but not least, you're going to need some form of frame. Now, I personally suggest just grabbing a large canvas at the craft store, pulling the canvas off the front and using it as your frame. So the first thing we are going to do is create our frame for our piece. Now, a lot of people here on YouTube or on TikTok have proper frames for this process. However, I'm going to be kind of DIYing my own. I've done a lot of weaving in the past, and I always use just canvases, basically, like the canvas-based frame here. I got this at Joanne's. You can use a 50% off coupon and get a good discount on one of these large canvases. Let's go ahead and create our frame and get started. I'm a little bit nervous, but I'm also very excited because if it works, this is gonna be so much fun. Creating the frame is super simple. I went ahead and bought this 3x3 canvas at the craft store. Make sure to use a coupon at Joanne's or Michael's whenever you go, so you can get it for a half off and just go ahead and remove the canvas from the inside. Now, as you can see, there are a couple of diagonal bars going across, but my designs are gonna be pretty small, so I just went ahead and left those for now, but you can totally go in and pull those out if you'd like to. Now, next, we're going to go ahead and put our fabric on our actual frame. So I'm going to start off with my burlap fabric, making sure just to pull it as taut as possible and using a staple gun to adhere it, or I guess staple it, down to the wood all the way around using a generous amount. You're basically going to want to be fabric to be pretty taut on there, but still have a little bit of movement. Finding the design is honestly my favorite part of the process. I just go on Pinterest and search rug tufting, or you can also search patches because there are so many different patches online that you can kind of recreate. Now, keep in mind, if you do not have a projector like this one right here, I do suggest going with something very simple that could be kind of flipped either way because you're going to want to actually mirror your image and flip it. So if you wanted to do this logo, for example, you're going to want to flip it and then trace it onto your piece with a projector. However, I do not own a projector. So I just went ahead and did designs that can look great both ways, such as that egg rug. I thought it would be a perfect starting point since it's only two colors, white and yellow, and I can also just kind of freehand and organically draw it out. I used a bowl for the yolk section and then I freehanded out the other part of the egg. Alrighty guys, this is the little setup that I created here. I already went ahead, I drew on my design. As you can see, I don't have a projector. I think I already mentioned it. And basically what you want to do is when you do have a projector is reverse your image. So I just did an image that would look kind of great both ways if it wasn't reversed. So this is an egg shape, which I think is really cute. And I think it's a great kind of starting piece because there's only two colors and there's just a couple of shapes in here. So I'm going to start off with this one. And I basically have this kind of propped up to where the full entire backside is exposed. And I'm basically just using the sandbags to hold it against here. That way when I tuft on the front side here with the gun, doesn't hit anything. It stays in place. And I feel like this is a pretty good setup. And I'm very excited to get started. I ended up getting two of the yellow and four of the white. And the reasoning for this is that when you actually use a rug gun, you want two strands in your rug gun at all times. So you're actually going to thread it with two pieces. It's going to thicken up the rug process and just make it go by a little bit quicker. And all around just using one strand just doesn't give you that density that you want for a rug. So I got two of the yellow, four of the white. Now this is the cheapest yarn you can get at Joanne's. This was three for $9. It's just the Red Heart brand, if you're curious. It looks like this. We're going to go ahead and thread up the machine and get started. I have the gun threaded. I mean, all there is now is to go ahead and start creating the shape, which I'm kind of scared about. I'm going to go ahead and turn it on here. This is the trigger that you're going to pull to basically make the gun go. This down here is the speed. So you can twist it back and forth to increase or decrease the speed. And those are really the only settings, the speed and go. Like am I supposed to do the outside line first? Like how? Oh my God. You guys, am I doing it? Yeah. Am I doing it? The yarn broke off. Let's look what the other side looks like.  It looks like a fricking rug on the other side. So I'm kind of just doing like little spurts as I go just to kind of tough in there. Okay, you guys, our outline is complete. I think I'm going to go ahead and also do this outline here so then we can fill all of the section in with white and then move on to the yellow. Now that your outline is complete, of course you're going to want to go back and fill it in with color. This is the fun part.  I find this is the easiest method and from all the videos that I've watched from rug tufters, they all seem to do vertical lines which just fills it in a lot quicker. I added all the white sections. There is going to be one more right here which I probably am going to add as well but I just want to see what this looks like and if we have the look. Oh my gosh, that looks incredible. That literally looks perfect. It's so soft too. Okay, I'm not going to lie. This actually looks like pretty good. I feel like this looks amazing so far. I am obsessed with it. I definitely do need to go in there and trim off some of those like kind of unlevel sections. However, it's looking great. I'm going to go now in with the white section for the little highlight and then we're going to add the yellow which I think we'll finish it off and add just a little bit of brightness to the piece and then we can see what it looks like in the end. Just to give you guys an idea of how much yarn I used, I only used two skeins and I still have this much left of either of them.   This is so cute, you guys. It turned out amazing. I'm sure right around these edges here, I probably could have done it a little bit cleaner. I do also need to go back in and kind of trim some of these sections and you also want to make sure not to pull anything because it's very delicate at the moment. And then on the backside, which is right over here, we're actually going to want to go in and use some carpet adhesive to adhere all of these yarn sections together. That way the rug never comes untufted at all. But let me go ahead and trim the front side first. The yarn I'm actually using for this one is a little bit different. I'm going to be using wool yarn for this one. My other one was acrylic yarn. So this one is a little bit more expensive, but apparently it's supposed to be a little bit more dense and durable. So I have these blue yarn balls, which are so pretty, like a soft Tiffany blue. And then the white one's really fun because this is actually a wool yarn as well, but it has a little strand of like reflection in there. So you get this iridescent look, which I thought would be perfect for our clouds. I just finished off the white for the circular cloud rug and I'm about to flip it over and look at the clouds. Oh, these just look so cute. I did not know this was so simple, you guys. I am fully obsessed with this. It is so much fun, but the blue is totally going to make these clouds pop. So I want to go ahead and start adding the blue, the same exact process as last time, but we're doing that nice little Tiffany blue color, which is going to fill in all of our blank space and we're going to outline our circle as well. And we will be good to go with this rug. The cloud rug is complete, you guys. I whipped through this one. I think I probably finished this in around an hour, which I think is pretty quick. This is actually a very substantial size as well, probably about almost two feet in diameter. But let me go ahead and check the other side. I haven't even looked yet myself. Oh my gosh, it is literally so cute. You could see a little bit of the shimmer and the white there and then the blue is so pretty. I do have to go in there and of course, trim all those excess threads that are kind of hanging off. Also another tip that I saw a lot of people using when trimming their rugs was actually shears for sheep, like wool shears, and then they also used hair trimmer. So I don't have either of those. I'm just going to go through and use my scissors for now. But if you guys want to see another video on rug tufting, maybe like a larger scale project or something more advanced or super intricate, totally let me know in the comments section below and I can make sure to invest in a couple more tools. So we can just kind of test them out and see how they were. But I'm going to go ahead and for both these rugs, I'm going to slap the carpet adhesive on the bottom of them or the backside. Let them dry overnight and I'm going to catch you guys back here in the morning. So we could check out the rugs and see how they look. But let's go ahead and apply the adhesive on them. Now when it comes to the adhesive, I went ahead and I purchased this one at Lowe's. It is just an indoor outdoor carpet adhesive and I used an old dollar store brush to apply it on the backside. Now I've seen a lot of people use like, spackling spatulas which seem to work a little bit better.  But I did give a generous coat of this glue on the backside which then you're going to go ahead and allow to dry overnight. I used canvas just to back it. Now I know a lot of people don't back it with anything but I figured I would just try out and back this piece in particular with some extra canvas that I had on hand. So I smoothed that out on the backside, let it dry overnight and then we can go ahead and finish it off in the morning. Good morning guys, it's the next morning and my rugs have been drying overnight and I am ready to go ahead and finish them off. I'm going to do a nice little finished edge on them to make them look nice and neat. Share with you guys the entire process of that and then we can style them up. But rug tufting, wow. I'm going to also come in a little bit later after I finish up the rugs and kind of talk about what my thoughts were, tips or tricks or anything that I learned along the way. So let's go ahead and finish them off to start.  So I kind of just put a couple of them together and kind of just created my own finishing method. So the first thing that I did was I just went ahead and removed all of the excess canvas just around where we glued it on at. And then I went ahead and I cut out the piece from the frame itself, leaving about a one and a half inch strip of burlap all the way around my circular shape or whatever shape you're going to be going for because we're actually going to want to then go ahead and cut this kind of around so it's nice and easily foldable and we are going to be hot gluing it down to the backside there. Now traditionally you would hot glue this down and then you would apply some twill tape on top. However, I just didn't have any twill tape on hand so I just simply went ahead and adhered this down around the entire rim on the backside of the rug and that is how you finish off your rug and complete it. I'm entirely sure what I'm going to use these for. They were more so practice projects just to see kind of like how I was able to use the rug tufting gun since I've never used one in my life before but it was honestly very, very simple. I thought the process was going to be a lot harder than it looked. When I received the gun in the mail I was looking at it and I was like okay, what button does what or where do I need to put the yarn or is there things I need to add to this machine? Like it actually ended up being a very simple process of just stringing the yarn right into the machine and getting started. So that is exactly what I did and I kind of wanted to share with you guys some of my takeaways from rug tufting that I think you guys should maybe also consider if you're going to be doing so. The first one being the material that I used for the actual base of the rug. I found that the burlap material was so much better than the monks cloth. I did a little bit of a test run on the monks cloth. The monks cloth just seemed to be a little bit too tightly woven to where it was very hard to get your tufting needle like at the end of the gun into the actual fabric and when you would go it would kind of skip some sections all around. I just found the burlap to be a lot nicer. It's a lot more looser. It is much more cost effective than the monks cloth. I do believe the monks cloth was $15 a yard whereas the burlap was $2.99. So it's a fraction of the price and it worked really, really great for the backing of the rug. Now in terms of the yarn for the egg project I used the acrylic yarn and for the cloud project I used the wool yarn. Now I definitely do think the wool yarn just feels thicker. Like this rug all around, when you step on it it feels a lot more squishier, a lot more cushionier whereas the egg rug does feel a little bit lighter. It almost feels like it's not as dense as the wool rug. So that is something to keep in mind and I do know based off a couple videos that I watched that the acrylic just doesn't stand up as well as the wool yarn does. And it kind of goes acrylic first then cotton and then wool. So if you're wanting to keep that in mind when you're also picking out your yarns that is a great thing to also consider. I ended up using the carpet adhesive just from the local hardware store on the backside using some canvas on there. Folding it over and finishing off the rug and I just love the way that these projects turned out. They're definitely like quirky and fun. I don't exactly know where I'm going to be using them throughout my apartment but I really wanna know if you guys like to see a video of me creating an actual rug like something larger scale or if something a little bit more aesthetically pleasing for my space. Something that I would definitely be using, you know in my living room or in my bedroom. So let me know if that's something you guys would like to see. And last but not least, you guys do not forget to check out today's video sponsor Ritual. I'm going to link them at the top of the description box below and you can go ahead and get 10% off of your subscription which is absolutely incredible. So definitely take advantage of that and I will catch all of you guys in my next one. If you have done any rug-topping projects as well please feel free to send them to me over on Instagram. I would love to know. Or if you guys have any pointers, tips or tricks comment them below. I would love to know anything. I think this is going to be a new hobby of mine. Very, very excited to continue making these little rug projects and I will catch you all in my next video. Bye guys.


Greetings, everyone. This is James P. Madonna of Megalife 21 and Progressive Discussions. And before I go on to do my next video talk show, I am stopping by from my immediate area off Route 17 South in Hasbrook Heights, New Jersey, the one and only, the famous Bendick Steiner, as seen on the Jerry Seinfeld Netflix series, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. That's right. It is in my close area and I love it here. Outstanding food, outstanding coffee and I will go in soon before I go on to do my next show. James P. Madonna of Megalife 21 and Progressive Discussions here. And aside from the famous Bendick Steiner in Hasbrook Heights, New Jersey, Route 17 South, right behind the famous Teterboro Airport where everyone with private jets lands who wish to visit New York City, we are right next door, directly next door to the famous Bananas Comedy Club in the Holiday Inn on Route 17 South in Hasbrook Heights, New Jersey, and there it is. The famous Bananas Comedy Club with a very highly rated Gabriel's Restaurant. For the bill. Rushing your pants. Wow. What do you think? I think it's a food. All right. Are you a Ravens fan? Yeah. You are. Why? I'm born there, but I'm a Kevin's fan, man. I'm a horseshoe. I'm a horseshoe. He always says that. When I was 19, 20. Yeah. Johnny United's. Johnny United's. Oh, we were talking about that this morning, everybody. We're calling from the other team. We're leaving the linemen with household names. Sure. Bubba Smith, sure. All of them. Bill Bracey, Ray May, Bobby Boyd. Everybody knew every player. Billy Ray Smith. Now, Roger Storbach came out of Annapolis. I think he was Navy. That's right. Where did Johnny Yu come out of? They say Louisville, I don't know. Oh, my eyes. Friggin' mold spores most of the time. I can't say about that. She says, she laughed when I said, we were in a mood to punish her. Eileen. I says, wow, she looks, she looks, she's straight in the eye. I said, she's like Trump. She looks, she's straight in the eyes of Lice here. Oh, my God, my eyeballs.   I was watching Fareed today in an interview with John Kerry. Yeah, I saw that. So the Russians actually told him and other high-level Washington people that they weren't allowed to converse about anything in the hotel room. They had some there. Kerry, John Kerry was saying when he, when they used to go on trips for government business, the Soviet Union, they were told by their agents or their people. Who's he? Russians or Americans? No, Russia told John Kerry and the others not to discuss anything anywhere, even private conversations. That's kind of odd, because I would think our government would tell them to discuss nothing, because, you know, it's staffed the room. They're going to listen to everything you say. Well, that's what he said. They probably... Yes, why would Russia care? Russia would probably hope that you talk. I don't understand that. Well, he says that they, he saw that they were being watched and followed and everything. Yeah, so why would Russia say don't talk about anything? Russia would say talk about everything you want. Yeah, if you're following and tapping somebody, you would want them. What was the reason for that? What did he say? He's promoting his book. Yeah, but why would they... I don't care about the book. That don't make sense. Why would they do that? They should want you to talk all you want. Right. If somebody's tapping you and following you... My buddy went over there. He had to go. And he said everywhere he had to ask permission and he was a follower. I mean, he was assigned a follower to follow him everywhere he went. Oh, like the Rocky movie when he trained in Siberia. He had the two guys following him everywhere. You know, did... He got followed everywhere? Yeah. What do you call them? Commissars or something? You know, right? I mean, I'm tired too, but... Oh, yeah. My mother woke me up like a thousand times early this morning. So when I told her it's time for your weekly shower and she says... Weekly? Yeah. Well, she fights. She curses us up. I says, guess what? This is payback, man. This is karma for you making me lose sleep. What do you mean? Oh, God. My friend... My friend from the Bronx was living with his... was living with his girlfriend in Jacksonville. He says they are still fighting a civil war down there. They are redneck is... I said it's northern Florida. Have fun, Justin. See you later, bud. Yeah, where's he from? He got an accent. Oh, really? 1920s. It wasn't the 1920s. The Baltimore Coast. He's just busting me. 1920s. Oh. I couldn't get old. Yeah. I couldn't get over how... how the weather was Labor Day and today I only had one window open halfway. It was so chilly this morning. So chilly. Yeah. No air-condition. No fans. Just one window. Where's your girlfriend been? I mean... I don't know. Missed every day. I'm not. She's not my friend. We were joking that she might have slipped into another dimension. She lies. Still, Jimmy, she's here every day at 3.15. I said, no, she's not.  Everything's been alive. Almost everything. Her brother, the theft of her phone. Everything. The hoardings. Yeah. She's a fountain of misinformation. Everything she says turns out to be alive. Then she said, well, I don't... once I caught her the lie, I don't know. He's the only one with a key. I said, that doesn't mean it's him. Your superintendent has a key, too. Your major's guy has a key. So where do you get these things from? So you're making stuff up in your mind. You've got to stop this. She tells you when she's in line, a couple of guys ask her if they want to have sex. I said, I don't buy that, at least. I don't believe that for a minute. Maybe it was wishful thinking on her part. No, it's imagination. Imagination running wild. I said, I don't buy that. I said, I don't buy that for one minute. I heard this... I heard this... there's this new thing now. And you're going to get a kick out of that. University professors now, if they say something, one word that offends the student, the student can report the professor. Now, give me a break.   And they don't deliver a lot of these guest speakers. They protest guest speakers coming on campus. Let's hear what they have to say. Yes. You don't agree with them, but it's even if a student is having David Duke in the clan there to talk. I don't agree with the thing you say, but I want to hear what you have to say. But we have a constitution. Well, not to the court. He's a crazy guy. He's always bumming cigarettes from everybody. Looks like he's trying to fly away. Like a condor. He's always, he walks around bumming cigarettes from everybody. Morning till night. You see him flapping his arms? He never sleeps.  He's been banned from this hotel. This hotel is going to stay off the property and there he goes in the property. Because he's bothering people. He's been banned from a liquor store in the 7-Eleven. Oh, my God. I well said, stay out, stay out. He hangs out and bummed cigarettes from everybody.  Do you have a cigarette? I told him what that said, your shit's going to stop.  I've got enough. But he has money for other things. I don't know if he does it or not. Well, he has bus fare. No, I don't know. I said that. I said that Tau sold him over in Englewood. Oh, OK. I said that he had money for bus fare to buy a pack of cigarettes. And Tau said it's either he has money and spent it on bus fare or he walks there. It's one of the other. These guys, I told them if your shit's going to stop. It's like saying if a homeless person has money for... Justin, Justin who was just here, my friend. Got him the other day when I was sitting there. He gave me cigarettes and since that year and he goes... No, it was his friend. And he goes, do you have two?  Like I... Do you have two? Like the homeless guy that says you could have gave me a $20 bill. Somebody gave him a $5 bill. He got lost. It's like if a whine or if a homeless person has money for booze and crack and they don't have money for food. You know what? Eddie Koch was right. I know he's God rest his soul. He says don't give a lot of these vagabonds anything. He goes, right from behind the pole. There he goes. Nice way of God. You better not come up to me because I'll tell him. No, don't worry. You don't smoke. I don't need it.  I wish Eileen was here.  Oh, that's right. She smokes. I don't need it. I would just say that. Oh. I think Eileen does smoke, doesn't she? Cigarettes? She came out with me one day but she doesn't know how to smoke. She doesn't hear. She came out and said, can I have one? You're not smoking. You might as well smoke a corn cob bite. I'm healing. So how did he get kept in black? I wish he was here. I'd go over to that guy and say, my friend Eileen thinks you're a cop. And she has cigarettes.  Oh, that'll be the best prank. That'll be the best prank. Get her real good. That's what you get for lying. I can lie too. Now, to show you how John Kerry was pandering during that interview, he referred to the Trump supporters as people that are justifiably angry. Oh, they're a lot more than justifiably angry. They're downright bigoted, hateful people. They're sick. They're uneducated for the most part. Yes. Narrow-minded, sick. Oh yeah. What do you think you voted for Moran because he tells us what we want to hear? Well, I can tell you what you want to hear, but it's true or not. There's another story Moran. Yeah. What do you mean what you want to hear? Well, you can just tell by the banners they hold up and what comes out of it. When they smile, they have no tears. Well, here's a wonderful truth.  Well, that old guy, that's come back. What about the girl? They pepper may, sir, or something in the face. In Texas, there was a, you know, who are they claiming? I'll tell you, Fox is horrible for giving scores. They will not show scores.  Carson, always be on the bottom of the screen. How about Eileen's home having sex? By herself. Well, she probably has one of those new males. My guy is over. He came up from the shore. You know, they have, they now have male blow-up dogs for women? You know, they have those. Eileen has not seen that so-called my guy in over a year. You can make a fortune if they did a replica of you when they sold them in adult stores. I know, but then I'd be signing autographs. You would have to sign the blow-up dogs. That's right. We're a Sharpie marker. Oh, that'll be so funny. You had an adult film convention signing those books. We're gonna be the funniest thing. It is balloon. That was good. He had the Hakawi Indians. It is balloon. The one with the real thick glasses, off the wheeler with Vanderbilt. He was up in the tower. Oh, it was Vanderbilt. He was up in the tower. You're sighted. It's Sergeant O'Rourkeos. Vanderbilt. I'm seeing the Indians yet. Be authentic. No thanks, Sergeant. I've already had my coffee. He couldn't hear either. It was just good. Now, Otis the town drunk. What show did he come from? You know Andy Griffith. Andy Griffith. Okay. Oh, God. When I was a kid, there was an infomercial. Boxcar Willie. He actually sold, like, what was it, country music? Cassettes. Remember? Slim Whitman. I told the Beatles in England. In England. In England, though. The Beatles at Horrible in England, they made their, the United States, the American fans made the Beatles. I don't understand that because they did great in Germany. No, they did great in England in the Cavern. That place is mobbed every night. I don't understand that. They bitched him on. Maybe they were kissing up to the American fans. Yeah. Well, David Hasselhoff is still a mega star in Germany, naturally, because his last name is Hasselhoff.  He got drunk. He was drinking probably. I bet he got a lot of tail when he did The Beach. Baywatch. Baywatch. Baywatch, yeah. I never saw that show once. Not once. Wasn't it? Nope. Well, Night Rider was, was I, I never watched that one. You didn't watch Night Rider? Never. Never. Night Rider. I saw it before photos of Pamela Anderson. I told you that. She, she looked a lot different, man. Flat as a board. And, and a Carmen Electra. No chess at all. His chess was clear. I bet, I bet Prince paid for Carmen Electra's plastic surgery because she was the same way. Thin lips, black. Really? Yes, sir. Wow. I bet Prince, because she dated Prince. Not she dated Prince. She married Dennis Rodman. Oh, you know, I watched the video of Ralph Lundgren and Sylvester Stallone training for Rocky 8. They're doing a Rocky 8 now? They're both in the gym, lifting weights, and Stallone looks like he's getting some assistance, if you know what I mean. He's jacked. He's been on that for a long time. And he's got the veins, his vascularity. They look like garden hoses. His face looks horrible. It's all plastic surgery. I mean, he works out hard. Don't get me wrong. I watched the video. He was pumping those irons. Well, there's rumors that Arlene's going for a head transplant. From what? Like an armadillo? From the whole head. Oh, the whole head? You mean face and all? Well, that's in my head, isn't it? Yeah. Cappout. That comes from a Latin word. Cappout's good monkey. That's what she does. Well, I mean, it's good. Cappout. That's a funny one. It's like noggin. Is that a German? Oh, my God. I remember coming home from the Navy. I was in Chicago O'Hare Airport. And I ordered a big jumbo hamburger. It was called 747 Jet Burger. Oh, they really spent a lot of time naming that. Was it good, though? Yeah, it was great. Was it big? It was big, yeah. Chicago O'Hare, a busy airport. O'Hare. It used to be the busiest. No, I think it's second. Logan's pretty. My friend Jeff, he's from Boston. He's a Logan airport. It's like the traffic is horrendous. Well, the worst one is Atlanta. O'Hare. Atlanta. Hartfield. Hartfield. Well, yeah, because Atlanta's like a mecca for professionals, right? Everybody's in Atlanta. So many professionals from all over moved there. Oh, they got beautiful residential areas. My parents went there, you know, to Georgia Tech. We loved Atlanta. Well, look at Washington, state of Washington, still looking all the, all the techs, computer techs and programmers. It's not valid. It's like Seattle's supposed to be the computer geek capital of the country, at least, of the world. What'd you get, Kara? That'd be a 50% majority. Oh, have you tried the? I watched when people get the 20 pence. It's $7.59 or $7.69. Oh, geez. But if you get mix and match two for five, get two 10 pieces. It's $5. People don't get it. Two 10 pieces or $5. 20 pieces, $7.59. Do the math. I was in, I don't know why Burger King does the same thing McDonald's does like with the McRib. Burger King had barbecued pulled pork, hero sandwiches, two for five bucks, and they were great. There was this much pork in it, shredded. I said, why did you stop it? Oh, yeah, people love it. Why did you stop it? Why'd you stop it? It's selling, man. It's selling like hotcakes. Why did you stop it? Oh, planes are taking off left and right in this weather. Overcast green. Look at that. It's a common set.  The tenders they're not going to sell all that. They're over a dollar a piece. What kind of? New tenders. But they're over a dollar each. Oh, what do you call them? Blaze? They're ten of them. They're 10.69. It's more money than I pay for the buffet on Fridays. Yeah, people are going to go to that. It's Saddlebrook Mall. Saddlebrook Mall. The Royal Hibachi. It's $10. All you can eat. I got fresh seafood. I got the Mongolian barbecue sushi. Delicious seafood salad. I'll be back. I'm going to the supermarket. Yeah.  A hard ice cream, where you can scoop your own ice cream. Like friendlies, like actual hard ice cream. Yeah. If you... Well, if you feel chilly, I'll keep that in the car. Just in case. Yeah, thanks. I don't have anything right now. I know. You have no access to your things either. Oh, I can call Frank. He'll let me in. But I... Well, when November comes and it gets really, really good. I don't have anything either more than maybe this one. That's it. Jackie says things are finalizing. They're done. Okay. That's some... You know what? Look at this. Come on, man. Why can't they just keep the score in the corner somewhere? They'll show the other scores and they will not show the scores. Oh, fine. Oh, finally. No, they're just showing stats. Not scores. I don't have more on this. Bad. It's quite trouble as Fox or... Hey, is Beningo still doing the football commentary? Because that's my... The guy's last name is Beningo. He's never heard of him. He's my... He's on one of these... Oh, he might be on FAN radio. I'm sorry. Yeah, he's a football commentator. Never heard of him. He's my brother-in-law's cousin. No, I don't know him. Okay, you imagine the football commentary you can do on radio?  I don't blame you over for switching channels. And you know who is really fanatically educated about football? It can create. He knows a lot about football. I know. I said, why don't you coach up... Do you know his creator, Cremate? Cremate. No, his last name is Padula, but... Does he know where to create? Because he performs. That's his stage name. He doesn't perform well. No, he does. You haven't seen all the things he does. No, he does a lot more than that. You know what would be a good stage name? For me, James Stage. It could be my stage name. James Stage. Poor Billy's tired, man.  You know what I got to bring you? I got to bring you a liniment from the Dollar Tree. It gets real hot. It's called Muscle Rub, Billy. It's got a... It's red and it's got a picture of a guy with his back showing. But you know what it's like? It's like extra strength, Bengay. For a buck. A buck or two. They also... They also have home pregnancy tests at the Dollar Tree. They got personal lubricants at the Dollar Tree. They have condoms.  Now, would a woman trust a home pregnancy test at the Dollar Tree? I don't know. I don't know. Now, this thing with Eileen, after saying that she comes here every day at 3.15 and she's not here in over a week, is weird. Maybe... Maybe she was abducted by aliens and... Oh, no. Don't tell me that guy's bothering Billy. No, no, you... That's true. I can't see who it is, but... Oh, I see. There's a bunch of keys dangling. Well, I... I took two cans of all these New England clam chowder, which is much better than Campbell's. And because they... You actually smell and taste clams instead of cream of potato. And it was good. I put... Because yesterday I was in the mood for fish, so... I usually buy the Alaskan pink salmon fillets and the codfish fillets. Keep it in the freezer. You know, it's a great store, but you gotta bring your own bags. You know, but... Are the lobster rolls still a-friendly? Or do they come and go? Really? Too big. Or then I'd like it. Nothing is too big on my plate. They had something new in the salad bar at the buffet this week. They had guacamole. When I loved guacamole. I love avocados. They had papaya. Fresh papaya. It was perfectly ripened sweet. It wasn't too over-ripened and it wasn't too hard. It was perfect. And what did I have? They had cod scrab, broils, cod fillet. Excellent. Beef shish kebab, but the beef was marinated, so it was tender. You could tell. I thought it was going to be tough, but... Usually the roast duck is the first thing I grab, but apparently everyone grabbed the duck with the meat and left me with the fat skin and bones. Yeah, everybody grabbed them. It's a lot of, in Italian, what we call... Oh, that was him. I'm not trying to figure out who that was. He doesn't waste time, does he? No, but everybody gets mad. You know that I put in perspective, he's a wonderful cigarette. So what? But his eyes, he's got eagle eyes, man. He knew you were out there. Helping somebody out. Yeah, but every time he sees you, he's going to want...  If he's that down and out, and he should apply like I leave, he should go to Rochelle Park and apply for social services. It's cold out there. Yeah, you know what? The next cigarette you have, you might need... Can I borrow this for a day or two? Or do you need it? I kind of... No, if you need it, you take it. I kind of use it, yeah. It's like they're hard... Because I have nothing at home. When I go off for a cigarette, it gets cold at night, so... No, that's yours. I do have something. I do... I do have... something. Ooh. You said that there's a really good chance that you'll be situated, right? And back in your place? Jackie says Tuesday, I don't know. We'll see. I mean... People tell me a lot of things, so I don't know. I have an extra... I have a fleece sweater with a zipper and a car that you can borrow. Now? Right now. An extra. Yeah, it's like... When I go out at night, it's dark. It's fleece. Oh, last night I was... I was chilling. I know, because at 2.30 in the morning, I went out to put... Not the garbage, I went out to... You weren't getting a fleece? No, I'll get it for you. Thanks. I'll get it. No, I'll get it for you. I have... What do you call it? Recyclables. I went out to put recyclables. It was about 2.30 in the morning.  Must have been in the 50s, right? It was. And then when the wind kicks up, you're like... And then somebody was walking right in the middle of the street, stopped right in front of my house, and he just stands there and I'm figuring... So what does that mean? I have to bring my machete out when I go out to throw the... Who are these? You don't know. It could be a watcher. At 2.30 a.m., he's like... Well, there's no time limit. You never know. He's like...  Carry something. You never know. Oh, I got it. I sold something. Oh, now you've got to get up and walk all the way down here again. That's a pipe for me, because we need... The cold air makes it...  Yeah. I'm telling you, she got a... A cot, like a single fold... Folding cot. They sell them at Walmart. It's like not even 20 bucks. You know, even if it's a Gilligan's Island hammock... No, I get on the flip. Oh, could you imagine? I got wrapped up in it and I'm like... Help me! I'm stuck. I'll be right back, okay? Well, then you have a lawsuit against Walmart. I'll be right back. Oh, boy. They have a copper fit for every joint in the body, Brett Farve. I see him in walks. One for each knee and... And the price came down. Well, it never works, Vincent. No. Well, copper has always been a medicinal... Well, it's a great conductor of energy, any energy. I'm going to try it. I need some of it. If it only gives me a little relief or something. One of my pyramids that I have has copper coil inside. It's supposed to harness and magnify the energy going into the pyramid. Copper... The one that was sleeping. She just... That's why in Italian we call them cavones. People that lack manners and... You know what? I see a pattern in their personality and maybe it's cultural but there's an Asian... She was an Asian. She was like Indian or Bangladeshi. No, no, she looked like from that near India. But they have a really... The best way I can describe them is rudeness. Coldness. Coldness, lack of compassion, empathy, manners. Very little emotion. These when I say hi, I'm like, hi, how are you? Remember Dan always said Dan was always right. That was just... Say it like you're a new year. But if they think you're going to shop, from them they show emotion. Yeah, they watch in 7-Eleven they'll watch you like a hawk. You know... Did I tell you the story when Reverend Bill was alive? He bought a desktop computer that was on sale from Micro Center and they didn't tell him it was sitting in a warehouse for 7 years. It wasn't a... It wasn't a current computer. It was 7 years old. Oh, come on. And they didn't... Oh, you kidding me? And the advertisement did not even mention it was a 7-year-old desktop. That's where you take it back? He told them and they ignored him. Customer service blew him off. So guess what I did? They made a review on Google and they contacted me. And guess what I did? I replied to them. I said there was no excuse for treating customers like that. If your product is sitting in a warehouse collecting dust for 7 years... He saw it on the box. I mean on the unit. That was that old of a unit? It was that old of a unit. They couldn't sell it. It was collecting dust. It was a Dell. I paid a few hundred bucks for it. You've heard of Dell, of course. G-E-L-L. There was a Dell. Micro Center and Patterson on...  Route 21 North? Or Route 20? You better watch these stories we've never heard of. No, it's a huge place. That's what... No, it's a huge computer store. Why don't you ask for the manager? You know how big it is? Remember Sports Authority? It's that big. They don't stay behind their sales like this? You're trying to swivel about what? Well, they emailed me based on my review and said please contact us privately. What did they say? They never replied. They never replied to my email. They said we care about our customer satisfaction. What are you going to say? We don't care? Come on. That's lip service. I told them why couldn't you put that it was a seven-year-old desktop in your advertisement? Why did you leave that out and have somebody think they're getting something on sale? That's fraud. That's fraud. That's illegal. You should have called a better business bureau, too. Well, unfortunately, the late Reverend Bill was a bit of a pacifist, so he kind of liked the idea that British cops, Bobby's, didn't have guns. That's a long time ago. But that's a little nuts. If I was a criminal and I knew that cops didn't have guns, cops can't depend on themselves. I'd be wearing the capillary burglar outfit with the mask and the striped shirt. I'd be going, ah, now we got them. We've got guns, they don't. Oh, well, Rob, do you remember your Billy Club? Yeah, you're robbing the bank, right? You've got a big jewelry heist. You stop it. No, but really, as far as advertisement goes and customer service, don't give me this we care about our customer service. You know. Well, it's been a weekend. They didn't get back to me, so I told them in the world of computers, seven years is worse than a dinosaur. No, that's true. You're right, but I think it's sooner than that. They say what you buy new today is already obsolete. Wow. Seven years is prehistoric. Thanks to the Anunnaki. That's why computer science is advancing so fast. Hi, Karen. But then with technology brings other demons like the fact that big brother can spy on us. Well, yeah. Everything you're doing, you're being watched. And hackers? My sister refuses to do online banking. I don't blame her. I like hard cash in my pocket. I don't trust that they're going to hack into your cars. You know what the bank says? We use encryption. We use an excellent encryption.  You ought to get along. No, we get along. Somebody gave him a test drive in a Tesla electric vehicle. The ones that go from 0 to 75 in a few seconds, rather. 0 to 75. He says it was incredible. He didn't hear any sound. He got hummed. And he got like a G-Force where his torso went electric, I guess. No, but it's Tesla's original alternate... I met a guy that bought one and he hated it.  That's because he wants to hear blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I charge the goddamn thing almost every day. I'm sick of it. I'm going to get a brand new Cadillac and get him rid of this thing. I'm 66 and you're going through the desert. Where are you going to plug in? I mean, really, where are you going to plug in? How much faster can you get with a new Cadillac to go from 0 to 63.6? Come on, man, that's fast. What's about time they start making Cadillacs especially? Cadillacs they say is a luxury Corvette.  I love Cadillacs. I remember the big high leather seats. Remember the fleet? Remember the fleet where it broke? Fleet would... See this is the end.
