Well... New comments section, anyway.
I'll generate my own damned content. I've resolved to move away from NoVa and it's high-velocity, expensive, crazy blue nonsense. On the list of states in which to look for work I've got Texas, South Carolina, Missouri, North Carolina, Florida.
I want red/redish and not insane snow.
Thoughts are welcomed, hiring managers will be greeted with booze.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is turning up the pressure on senators to make a deal on three important bills, vowing to keep the chamber in session until its work is done. The Senate is quickly approaching a week-long Memorial Day recess, but it still has to finish work on a "fast-track" trade proposal, expiring provisions of the Patriot Act and highway legislation.

It strikes me that we've built such an affluent society that we now have to find make-work for a large segment of people who get to waste their time in pseudo-intellectual pursuits like this survey.

Good Morning Morons. Today is Friday, May 22, 2015. On this day in 1964 LBJ announced his Great Society social reforms to bring an end to poverty and racial injustice in America. We still have poverty and always will regardless of what the socialist government does. Indeed, when you subsidize poverty you create more of it. This was a simple ploy to buy black votes for the Democrats and it worked. It is very easy to grow a FSA. As for racial injustice, that had largely disappeared for blacks by 1964. Now we still have it but it is largely against white males.

461 Folks we have 53 people in 9 States affected by salmonella outbreaks. The solution here is simple, don't eat raw fish. In fact, don't eat raw anything except vegetables that have had a good washing.

It's feminists wanting to get on the Sharpton/Jackson race hustle.
Do you know what the "Rape Culture" hoax really means to feminists?
It means that Universities have to set up offices to combat rape culture and "raise awareness" -- and Columbia U did that very thing --- and these offices have to hire otherwise unemployable Women and Gender Studies majors at salaries far greater than they could make in the private sector.
And it also means feminist groups can raise money to "combat rape culture" through fundraising and government grants/earmarks from politicians who want to show how concerned they are about rape culture and inequality.

Make one at home. Here's the recipe:
1. Buy tin foil.
2. Make hat.
Ouila!

THE CHAIRMAN of Temple University's physics department, a world-renowned expert in a complex field that most people know nothing about, has been indicted for fraudulently obtaining key technology to help associates in his native People's Republic of China.
Name is Xiaoxing Xi. Something about superconductivity. Actual charges are wire fraud at this point.

You'll note that the Orkin List is based on how many calls to exterminators to reduce mosquitoes are received. This accounts for Alaska, as no one would expect to do warfare with them. I'm between Detroit and Cleveland, both on the list, in an area where early white settlers built moving tent frames over their cattle to keep them from going mad from the bug bites. We don't make the list, because we didn't call Orkin.

I found the popehat article disturbing. I'm happy that he had options but not everyone does. Not everyone has excellent healthcare, people who support him no matter what, a job they wont lose, a roof over their heads. I found reading it depressing which is the opposite of his intention.

That's why you should run a small electrical current, I use two small alligator clips and a 9V battery. Creates sufficient static to drown out normal conversation.

I was working up a project to literally "tin" the inside of an iron dutch oven, and found you have to go to scientific supply houses for tin nowadays, since everything we scoff at as being Cheap Tin is really something else. It's just for hats.

If it helps any, Marble Falls is kinda south of real tornado country. May happen, but, not common.

Um, Flounder, we usually get by in those cases with just a link. Whattaya think? (Not my bailiwick, just observin.)
Posted by: mindful webworker - not my circus, not my monkeys at May 22, 2015 08:33 AM (oBghv)
Yeah, it was 20 some odd posts, so you would get a wall of links with no info why you should click or this. Thus the advance plea for mercy.

Last night I woke up from a nightmare in which there was a terrorist attack by ISIS or something at the meeting. As far as I recall they have metal detectors before you go in the Conf rooms, but still-this nightmare was very unsettling.
I would appreciate your prayers for our group. The meeting starts on Thursday and goes through part of Saturday. Uggh.

Ah, I think I understand what you're saying. No, I meant one would just link to Vic's first one. Vic himself usually announces the comment number in the ONT for the start of his links. I do it every day on my blog heap o'links. (click nic)
But, just noodlin'. Not criticizin'.
On to the other threads!

It's true i read it somewhere. It is activated when the tin foil is crinkled or folded.
