Each of the three photos is of a different vehicle.
Yet the title addresses a singular van..
I wouldn't go banging the drums too loudly just yet, as it may not pass the sniff test.

an excuse to swear at Obama, which I can understand, but still, why
would he have a chip on his shoulder about Obama?
A guess?
He was lashing out at America, because he could - just a power play. Under Obama there's no fear, so you can taunt, insult or provoke us (Russia fly-bys, Iran harassing our Navy, etc.) to show how tough you are. Obama likes to call it "punching above your weight."

Good morning everyone. I noticed on Drudge that Reuters heavily censored Mr. Trump being treated well by a black church, and its members.
It is stories like this that make me believe that our country is gone beyond reclaiming.
It's like we are occupied by an enemy foreign power.
Anyway, enjoy your Knights of Labor Day.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who threatened to "swear at" Obama if he asked about the Philippines' extrajudicial killings -- and then swore at him anyway.
It sounds like Obama hadn't even done anything yet to provoke Duterte. But why would he have a chip on his shoulder about Obama? He's a bloodthirsty tin pot dictator of a third world sh*thole. Just Barry's type. I picture them chatting amicably while munching on pineapple glazed roast dog.

litter someone found in a woodpile. He was in an elevated cage with his
sister at the shelter. As they were putting him in the crate to take
home, I felt this soft, tap, tap,tap on my shoulder. I looked back, and
his sister was looking right at me. She didn't use her claws, just soft
taps of her left paw. I lost it. We called the shelter yesterday, and
she's still available. Looks like we're going to have 3 cats.

Roses are burnt & tiny. We've had 20 90 degree days this year. They're always small in summer but they've never been this burnt.
I need to remove all, fertilize one last time & hope weather doesn't reach 90s again. I'm still trying to get pink/white climbers to climb. Last year I had to chop to below ankle level. 11 y/o white climber in back died over this winter.

I was pondering this the other day. I can't eat anything without the kitten trying to take it from me. And it doesn't matter how often I put toilet paper on the dispenser, there's none there when I need it. It's pretty much a contemporary Venezuelan existence.
Could it be that Venezuela is being ruled by a 5-month-old cat?

Since the 1880s, the color black has been associated with anarchism. The black cat, in an alert, fighting stance was later adopted as an anarchist symbol.
More specifically, the black cat, often called the "sab cat" or "sabo-tabby", is associated with anarcho-syndicalism, a branch of anarchism that focuses on labor organizing and the wildcat strike.
Lord, Leftists are so tiresome.

The Veronese is one of the most impressive paintings I've ever seen: brilliant color, each of the many figures is an individual, architectural accuracy, and an astonishing technical competence. These words are completely inadequate to describe such a masterpiece. You really should look up a copy that can be enlarged. The original is 22' x 32'. The viewer could spend days enriching his life by studying it.
Then there is today's black and orange-ish mockery of art more appropriate for the Halloween edition of a bad pulp magazine. (Yeah, I know why it was chosen. Happy Labor Day, BTW.)
The enormous gulf between the talent, vision, and spirit in these two images is frightening.

Mike Hammer, I had a 40 meter dipole that I could tune from 10 down to 80 meters. It worked pretty well considering I can't give it much height. Also looking into a magnetic loop or a Gap Titan vertical. Not cheap but they get good reviews.

In a baking pan, fill it 3/4 full of thinly chopped apples, dot with about a quarter stick of butter, sprinkle with sugar.
In a separate bowl, mix about a cup or more of oatmeal with a cup or more of flour and a half cup of sugar, cut in a half stick of butter until it resembles crumbs, and spread over the apples in the pan
Bake at 350F for 40 - 45 minutes
If you use brown sugar it will have more caramel overtones, and if you apples are too sweet or bland try putting some lemon juice in on top of the apples before putting on the topping.
That is happiness in a pan.

I had to put a headphone in and read so i didn't get upset while gramma was watching the "news"
I replied, I have heard rumors about TV news, but don't know from personal experience. Political porn sites are disturbing.
Then I refreshed my understanding - I watched an ABC news report on Milo, "Twitter Troll Has No Regrets About Attacking Leslie Jones" - great googly mooglies was that a piece of political propaganda porn!! Appalling. Old USSR Pravda or NoKorea News-worthy level of BS.

I have a G5RV dipole strung up like an inverted vee, apex up about 50'. It works OK.
I first got my ham license in 1970, when I was 14 years old. Was active until about 1980, then other things like school and life and marriage, took precedence. Got back into the hobby in 2010. Interesting to see the changes.
First, the no-code license is blasphemy. I'm just sayin'.
Second, the all solid-state rigs with digital tuning are pretty cool. The all solid-state KW amplifiers are also amazing to me.
Third, it's amazing how dead the bands are. Back in the day, getting on 40 meters on a Saturday afternoon, there'd be wall-to-wall QSOs from 7200-7300. Nowadays, there's just acres of empty space. It gives me a sad.

Extremist speakers at the ISNA conference at which Secretary Johnson spoke included Jamal Badawi, a founder of another Brotherhood entity, the Muslim American Society, and Nihad Awad, founder and executive director of the CAIR organization. CAIR, too, is a U.S. Brotherhood entity, and an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land terror financing case.
Although the Post wrote that Johnson was the highest-ranking U.S. official to address an ISNA conference, this is incorrect; Clarion reported that U.S. President Obama himself addressed the 2013 ISNA convention and praised the group for its partnership with his administration.
The Washington Post called Johnsons appearance an impassioned speech to empower ISNAs participants.
The Clarion Project reports that ISNA is a group with Muslim Brotherhood origins and an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terror-financing trial. The Holy Land Foundation (HLF) was created by the now-defunct Palestine Committee, which itself was established by the Muslim Brotherhood to advance Hamass political and financial agendas in the United States.

That story is almost the same story my parents told me how they got their 3 cats. In 2001 they had to put down their old Marmelade cat of about 18 yo. A couple weeks later they went to the shelter to get 2 cats. In a cage were 3 siblings. They picked 2. As my dad turned away he felt a tap tap on his back. It was the third kitteh sibling. They went home with 3.

Just like the amount of feigned surprise, shock and dismay at how Hillary can be found to have done literally thousands of illegal transfers of classified material, hundreds of public lies including to congress and the FBI but has not been charged.

The "red scare" is over, since most people accepted the reds into our culture, even as the commie bastards made up the term "McCarthyism" to successfully smear McCarthy.
The "commies" took over Hollywood and the MSM in many ways, but mostly the divide and conquer technique spawned all sorts of DC-centric corruption.
So "Black Lives Matter" is more racist gangster anarchy, created by Soros money and Holder intervention in Ferguson. It is not communism, it is a tool to create instability.
Of course the communism fairy tale is what Democrats preach all the time. The reality is there are always a few at the top that use the propaganda to use government as their enforcer for their graft. They should have died long ago, but they run DC and the media instead. But "socialist grifters" may be a better description.

You're not supposed to understand it. It doesn't make any sense; you can't understand it.
Remember Ace's post from earlier this week about knee-jerk responses and signaling what side you're on before giving it any thought. My addendum is leftist ideology requires that because it's all absurd. It's more than "I did not have sex with that woman" which is merely a deliberate misstatement of a fact (i.e., a lie). It's "It depends on what your definition of 'is' is." If you think about it, your mind becomes thoroughly boggled.
Consider:
Human activity is causing the sea level to rise.
A person's sex is whatever they say it is.
The Confederate flag has indirectly killed people.
Only black people's lives matter.
The first of these can be verified or falsified. The others are beyond false - they're crazy. Do yourself a favor and stop trying to wrap your head around it.

Apropos of the whole "worst song ever" debate from the other night, I think the only reason "we Built This City" is usually named is because it involved someone as talented as Grace Slick. It's clearly not objectively the worst song ever on its own merits - it's bad, the lyrics are insipid, but it's at least catchy. But we compare it to "White Rabbit" and "Somebody to Love," and it clearly doesn't measure up.
But the worst song ever is probably some 54 minute rock opera written by a guy who does the entire thing on theremin and spoken word. The worst song ever is something none of us have heard, and something we could hardly even comprehend.
(For the record, I don't even think "We Built This City" is the worst Starship song. I'll take it any day of the week over "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now.")

I think there is no doubt that Airplane was awesome and Starship sucked. For this I blame Marty Balin. (I think he had been in Airplane at some point, but he's not really part of the canon).
There were some good Starship songs and many less good. I think "We Built This City" is hated because it was the tail end of their corporate sell-out period. There was nothing left of the San Francisco jam band.

The 'Jefferson Airplane' was long gone from SF by that time, Casady and Kaukonen had gone off to Hot Tuna, Kantner was grumpily hanging around for the next paycheck, Slick had become a capitalist*, and it was basically Marty Balin's band. In other words, garbage.

being locked in the attic and allowed out once every two weeks for a
staged appearance. Sooner or later she will escape her handlers and the
country will realize there is an evil psychopathic ax-lady in the White

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPEhQugz-Ew
Veres, who died a few years ago, was unlike Slick in that she didn't take drugs and futhermore, she informed the guys in the band before she agreed to join that there would be no sex with them. It must have been tremendously frustrating for those dudes to watch her on stage night after night knowing that nooky was off limits.

The "Gay American" fails to understand the difference not only the difference between positive and negative rights i.e. that our system of government is to protect your inherent rights against official intrusion, but even the difference between "rights" and "feelings." That is, her government is imperfect so long as it lacks full authority to prevent anyone, pubic or private, from hurting your feelings.
Of course, any government with that mission statement is expressly totalitarian. But hey why quibble?

The fedguv was sending all relief message traffic via the Hurricane Watch Net (hwn.org) until military comms could be airlifted in. Nothing like handling being a relay on a message that comes with a White House switchboard number to call to authenticate that "Secretary Cheney has been given the order...USAF C-130s will depart XXX (I think it was Pope) be prepared to receive them at San Juan Int'l Airport at XXX time".

Yes, she is approaching 70 and age does explain some of her apparent frailties and appearance.
Having said that my wife is 71 (she was a cradle robber) and she is almost infinitely more healthy, active and vibrant than the would-be president.
If she has some type of fall--it's because she's doing stuff that Hillary would never do.
She goes to the gym, not for yoga but to take classes with women half her age. (She used to have three times the energy of a woman half her age--now she's down to twice the energy of a woman half her age.)
I guarantee I've taken many photographs where she is much more attractive than any of those airbrushed monstrosities of Hillary. And she usually looks genuinely happy.
Hillary's ugliness ain't just about the age.

That's why they have such a boner for the mohammedans. They share goals. They're allies. The only difference is that the mohammedans want to build something afterwards.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who threatened to "swear at" Obama if he asked about the Philippines' extrajudicial killings -- and then swore at him anyway.
--
Found the youtube clip
https://youtu.be/NnPV9EEuJzM?t=5m
It sounds like he is actually cursing the reporters for trying to scare him with "just wait until he meets Obama".
He has a rant about how the USA (back in colonial era early 1900s) massacred 600,000 Moros in pacifying the Philippines, for which the USA has never apologized.
Then he castigates the Philippine press for being overly impressed with the USA, etc.

I usually hear three main reasons for not getting one:
1) Name and address in a publicly accessible database.
b. It's too expensive.
III: I've got the radio, but not getting a license, after TSHTF I won't need one.
I already addressed "1" earlier (use a PO Box). I hear "b" from people who won't hesitate to drop $2500 on a custom 6.5 Grendel with the best tacticool optics and accessories on the market. "III" really drives me nuts, because it's the functional equivalent of buying that 6.5 Grendel and just shoving in the safe on the assumption that when SHTF you can just pull it out and start shooting like Jerry Miculek. Just like there's a lot more to shooting than pointing and squeezing the trigger, there's a lot more to radio than pressing the button and talking...and like shooting, it's a perishable skill.

It's complicated:
Raised a military brat, Morrison's family moved often. He spent part of his childhood in San Diego. He completed third grade at a Fairfax County Elementary School Fairfax County, Virginia. His father was stationed at NAS Kingsville in 1952, he attended Charles H. Flato Elementary School in Kingsville, Texas. He continued at St. John's Methodist School in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and then Longfellow School Sixth Grade Graduation Program from San Diego, California.[14] In 1957, Morrison attended Alameda High School in Alameda, California.[15] He graduated from George Washington High School, now George Washington Middle School, in Alexandria, Virginia in June 1961.[14]
That was from the wiki entry

xnycpeasant
yeah, there are actually some "positive rights" ... government provides for common defense, which sort of includes the judicial system. Founders were quite aware that people needed protection FROM governments, including our own.
And obvious to all but the more recently educated, they can only "give" what they take by force, and that process itself is inefficient, even if there were no corruptocrats at every step.

Plus, the vast majority of the public doesn't equate "ham radio" with RWNJ or prepper, they equate it with "nerd" and old guys on rascals or sometimes "my grand father/great uncle/etc was a ham".

Everybody lived there. Joni Mitchell, Graham Nash, Jackson Browne, David Crosby, I'm running out of memory.
But it was different from Haight Ashbury. The Haight was a brief scene that everyone heard about and all sorts of castoffs and runaways showed up and turned it into a homeless shelter.
Laurel Canyon was a secluded place where all the cool musicians hung out and jammed with each other.
