Daily Dose of Sultnpapper 10/06/18> I have some “es plaining” to do...

alt

Most of the week...

Seeing how I spent most of the week along the Texas / Mexico border I kind of got that Mexican lingo working right now. For those of you who might not recognize “es plaining” it is simply "explaining", with my best Mexican impersonation. So I do really have some explaining to do and we are giving away some SBI shares today so hang in there while I get the explaining out of the way.

First let me say...

First let me say “thank you” to all of you who congratulated me both on my poker win Thursday night and the awesome Curie upVote that the Friday Daily Dose received. I have to tell you, that Curie was very much unexpected for sure. The fact is that Curie has some pretty high standards that they hold too and that Daily Dose from Friday was right on the edge of the line of crossing those standards.

Normally you won’t find words like damn or the mention of being pissed, as in pissed off, in a post that Curie places their stamp of approval on in the form of an upVote, but those were in that edition. The other thing you won’t find Curie touching is political stuff.

I would have...

I would have to think that my criticism of the border patrol agents and their immigration check point and also bad mouthing the Johnny Law,( aka: the sheriff) would have to be considered political. If not political, it was at least anti-government. I intended it to be that way in case it didn’t come across as such.

I also ragged...

I also ragged the public education system here in the USA. When you start adding all those things up and looking at them it makes you wonder if the folks at Curie haven’t lowered their standards. That would really be great for folks like me; I crank out stuff just like the Friday edition of the Daily Dose on a pretty regular basis. Could there be several more Curie upVotes coming my way in the not too distant future?

I know what it takes...

So now let me get that “es plaining” out of the way. I know what it takes to get Curie upVotes, this latest one makes my seventh if I remember correctly. The thing with Curie, at least for me, has been BBQ. Good old slow smoked Texas BBQ has gotten me three of those upVotes, the other thing they must be into over there is NAKED men, or at least stories about naked men at church.

The truth is...

The truth is that the Friday edition of the Daily Dose didn’t win that Curie upVote. So for those of you who were scratching your head about how did that piece of crap Daily Dose win a Curie, you were not alone, I was scratching my head as well.

The truth of the matter is that a Curie curator submitted my Daily Dose from 10/02/18 which was the story of the naked man at church. The Curie curators approved that post for a Curie upVote and placed in their spot where all approved submissions go and wait for whom ever actually applies the vote to upVote it.

Still sitting there...

That Daily Dose is still sitting there waiting to be upVoted. I only know this because on Friday morning I went over to the Curie discord channel and thanked them for the upVote and asked if they might be able to give me the name of their curator who submitted my post. I can’t remember who it was that actually replied to my question but they replied with a link to a sight that has all the information on who submitted it and it also shows just how much percentage of upVote the post received.

Surprise, surprise...

So, I went and looked and you can’t imagine how surprised I was to see that the post that was approved was the naked man at the church story and not Friday’s Daily Dose. So “thank you” to Hive account@buttcoins for submitting that story, and my thanks again for the Curie curator community for approving it as well. Now if they will just upVote it I will be really sitting in high cotton this week. You can take a look for yourself, here is the link. You will have to scroll back a page or maybe more but you will see it.

Speaking of high...

Speaking of high cotton, I don’t normally mention stuff about agriculture but I can tell you that this cotton season in south Texas has produced what is known as a “bumper crop”. There are round bales lined up all along the cotton fields all the way down US Hwy. 59 and Hwy.77, more than I have ever seen it my lifetime. So there shouldn’t be any shortage of cotton underwear this winter and next spring.

One last thing...

One last thing and we will get on with the SBI give away. As most of you know, if you actually read paragraph two and didn’t just skip down here to be close to the SBI give away part, I did win the poker game over at the Steem Poker League Thursday night and when I announced that win I said nobody cares who finishes second. Then I kind of went back on that statement and did mention the second place finisher which was Hive account@missypurple. Well the second place finisher in the Friday night game was one of my team mates from back when the league was having the Team Up series event, his name is Loquedog21 and I think he might also go by the name Hive account@gamesandcrypto.

You read that right...

We really could have used that first and second place finish we had had last night back when the Team Up series was going on the Friday night poker games. You read that right, first and second place, which makes back to back wins for this old man.

Except when I...

One thing I have noticed is that it seems that they always have pictures of the tournament the next day in the Hive account@spl write ups and almost always showing the winning hand, except when I win. I wonder if there will be a picture today of my winning hand, there wasn’t one on Friday, but don’t take that as complaining by me, just an observation. Friday night’s win got me slightly over seven SBD and I damn near have given it all away already and I have even named this week’s winners of the SBI shares.

SBI Saturday is now...

So let’s do that now. Hive account@thekittygirl is number one, she celebrated her one year anniversary here on steemit recently and she does a hell of lot for all the communities she is involved with and I have had the pleasure of knowing her on here since her very first day. If you don’t know her and if you know of her but aren’t following her you are missing some great posts, so go check her out.

I'll kiss your ass...

Second on the list this week is Hive account@janton, this guy has a way of getting me to write things that really shouldn’t be written about myself. Just this week our little back and forth in the comments of one of the Daily Doses had me ending up telling the story of how I lost a bet years and years ago to a really good looking cow girl who actually could piss over the hood of a Ford pickup truck. If you want to know that whole story you will just have to find that on your own.

I owe her...

Last but not least is Hive account@mattifer, I owe her a post over on WeKu that I have promised to do and I just haven’t gotten around to yet. She is a hell of lot better at grammar than I am and she has taken me task a couple times on word usage. So, it is kind of refreshing that we actually agree on what name people should use to identify with over on WeKu. She and I have decided that going forward the term for WeKu users will be WeKuzees. It is a hell of lot better sounding than some of the names I have been seeing around there like Wekuians and WeKuists. Wekuzees just has a good sound to it and it is easy to say and type, so if you are on WeKu feel free, no don’t feel free, just use the damn term and let’s get it accepted over there. WeKuzees. WeKuzees. Say it with me, WeKuzees.

Just like always...

Just like always, all people mentioned in the Saturday edition will receive a share of SBI, not just those who are featured.
Okay friends, that wraps it up for this SBI Saturday edition of the Daily Dose, I’ve done enough “es plaining’ for one day.
Until next time,
Hive account@sultnpapper
