Overnight Open Thread (9 Dec 2016)
Europe
Good luck Europe. 1,500 ISIS Jihadists have quit Middle East to attack Europe. Fake News Not a surprise. 80% of students can't tell the difference between real and fake news. Speaking of fake news, it's not true that Obamacare insures 20 million. Epic Christmas Music I discovered this album last Christmas and it is absolutely awesome. If you have Amazon Prime, you can add the album to your playlist for free. It is titled Christmas: Coming Soon - Position Music Orchestral Series Vol. 5.

I'm not going to say that Trump wasn't Russia's preference, given Hill-dawg's insistence that we help the poor Syrian jihadists, but seeing liberals act as "patriots" who are concerned about election integrity is just precious.

Sooner or later banks catch up to this. I had a minor incident myself. At the bank branch near my home i cashed a personal three party check on Friday, 1 minute before closing, at the drive-through. After I got home I found out that they'd misread the amount and gave me too much cash. I knew that they have to balance out before they leave because my sister had worked at a credit union. So I called right away to tell them. They said to come in Saturday morning and return the extra, which I did. One month later I got a call that I had been given too much money for a check. I told them that I had taken care of it at the time and the manager remembered my calling and bringing it in.
They go through a lot of layers of accountability. If you get the money accidentally and spend it, they will want it back.

Exactly. It's the obvious thought. Our own media lies to us and we need hackers to tell us what is really going on. Why would we then condemn them? Unless we buy into the left's narrative that we must be shielded from the facts, for our own good.

I was thinking something along these lines. Deliver it in person with a sincere apology to the girl and her parents, since they were also hurt by this.
And, although I'm not a parent, I'd want to try to get her to express why she did this, and what she thought she was achieving. Introspection might as well begin now, it's the work of a lifetime.

A heartfelt letter of apology is appropriate. Truly heartfelt. Ask the other kid for forgiveness, and then tell her that you will forgive her for her rude behavior. Then, try to let her move past it. Hells bells, seven is still really small.

I agree. I'm in favor of discipline but taking all the presents away seems overly harsh. When the punishment is too harsh it can have the opposite of the intended effect.

That article is itself an example of "fake news" albeit a subtle one. It mixes fact with innuendo. It rightly observes that "sponsored content" is just ads and therefore not trustworthy.
Then it goes on to imply that anything associated with Fox or Trump is suspect.
They do not list all of the leftist deceptions that have occurred.
The author of this article is not really interested in fostering critical thinking. She is just trying to come up with a more subtle way of espousing fake news, via the same informal logical fallacies the left has always employed. Not even sure it's a good idea that this article be linked to.

a 7 yo doesn't have part 2 yet. not really. its better formed around 9 they say.

part 1 is Obedience and Punishment. They're good only insofar as to avoid punishment. the second is Individuation and Exchange, where they learn there's different points of view different values.
a 7 yo doesn't have part 2 yet. not really. its better formed around 9 they say.
and you're going to say what thats horseshit of course they do, but thats becoz you're very much further past that. 7 yo isn't curious about other's values but a 9 yo is.

Now, if Trump is the Boss, then they will be lying cheating dirty rotten SOBs for the United States. If Trump picks 'em, I think that's what they'll be. If they're AMerica, Fuck Yeah people, I'm good. I don't think Trump is going to pick the ones who globalist, fuck yeah, people.

I was talking to my priest and he said that some little kid asked him why we had to buy gifts for poor kids and Santa wouldn't. He had trouble coming up with a good answer.

Okay "Santa."
No srsly. I think it was a bad thing. I think teaching kids to believe in myths like Santa helps prepare them to understand the concept of God. I'm not saying that religion is a myth but that it develops faith in the unknown. I have always struggled with that too. I would have figured out that there was no such thing as Santa on my own anyway. I never got the Hot Wheels racetrack I asked for every year in the letter we had to write at school every year.

Bebe, who doesn't want to be appreciated for who they are? At first it's great that women are pleased. After a while it becomes empty. You feel like a whore. Leave your money on the dresser before you leave. Code word for price is "roses".
You want and even NEED to be loved for you.
People want what they don't have. F'd up or not, that is how it is.
Grey hair has caught up with me. I am growing more and more invisible to women these days.
Definitely an adjustment. Such is life.
I see guys on here who say women won't give them the time of day. You know what, I know it isn't fair.
Story of my life? I have been that guy who has had his dream woman tell him he's is exactly like the guy they want- but NOT that guy. Second place of the heart is like finishing last.
So again, I am NOT bragging. Yes I am blessed in some ways, but not how I want/need.

On this one episode, the hooker would tell the undercover cop the price of $20. So he'd give her a counter offer of $15. After she agreed to that, he tried for $10. At which point I thought, "Well, now you're just being mean."

It's all a theory. Taking parenting advice from the childless is like taking sex advice from a virgin.
The best way to undermine a parent is to hivemind an opinion on what they do in raising their child.

I'm a firm believer in "let kids be kids" as long as you can. I didn't want to give up Santa Claus or Trick or Treating. That's why it doesn't bother me when teen-agers go trick or treating. I figure there are worse things they could be doing.

Although with the teens trick-or-treating, I do want them to wear a costume. That tells me they're into the fun and not just free-loading!

I'm actually working one of those cases now. girl was once pretty now kind of a rail but still pretty enough. she shoots up every day and has gonorrhea and cannot get her shit together long enough to get treated. at first i went to her address of record, but its her mom and they are always fun to talk with
hey im a total stranger guy looking for your junkie whore daughter! oh yeah just look down on carter st can't miss her! and damned if she wasn't too.

So basically, they are engaging in providing grist for the mill, more red meat to fuel endless talking points of "stolen" or "rigged" elections and attaching the taint of illegitimacy to Trump.
Also, John Batchelor had on his show a guest who said that Putin and the Russians would rather have a "strong" opponent that "doesn't talk down to them" than a weak opponent who always lectures them. It's surprising that they wouldn't want a weak adversary like Hillary.

Having been a liveaboard sailor from '99 to '06, I came to realize that a not insignificant percentage of dates, short or mid term relationships, etc., were not pure of motive.
They may have "liked" me, for the duration of things, but higher-than-you-might-think percentage turned out to be just living out their "Romance Novel Doing It On A Boat" fantasies.
Quite the romantic setting, that. And I was a good host, cook, setter of moods what with dinner served hot, wine served cold, music served as smooth as the CD could pour out the jazz.
And that feeling that TKW described: "just put a $20 on the table." Yep, one does acquire a jaundiced view of things along those lines, soon enough.
I learned to do some real digging into earlier conversations. And cull the home-nesters, furniture collectors, clutter-ers, etc. None of them had the faintest damn interest about life on the water. Just so long as they could have their fling on the water.
Given now that I do plan my retirement aboard a similar, but much larger boat, I'll be well prepared to repel boarder-esses, when required.

Look, I'll be blunt.
I came of age in the 70s, thought sexual freedom was a wonderful thing. As I grew older, I realized that sex without love is just a soul-killer.
I also realized that you can't just make intellectual decisions/contracts because people can't control all of these factors. It's not playing a game when you make a decision that you aren't going to sleep with someone until you share something deeper. I'm not telling you to save yourself until marriage, just have something THERE before getting naked.

Let's see. Under Hillary's tenure at State, how did Russia fare?
She started the ridiculous "reset" policy, which was basically a repudiation of what little grief Bush gave the Ruskis for seizing part of Georgia.
Then, without getting anything in return, we cancelled ABM systems in Eastern Europe and pushed through a nuclear arms reduction agreement completely favorable to Russia --- and which they promptly violated. IOW, a typical Democrat "deal" with enemies.
In the meantime the Bitch is selling them uranium rights for contributions to her slush fund while giving them plenty of US secrets and blackmail material from her unsecured server.
The ultimate result of the reset policy was the seizure of the Crimea and the ongoing war in Ukraine.
All in all, I cannot see why Putin would want an Unknown Quantity (Trump) over a known sucker who is easy to buy, blackmail, or bamboozle.
I just can't buy the Russia-wants-Trump line. It makes no sense to me at all.

And these days young women would be more ashamed to admit THAT than the opposite.

Specific notes and patterns when using a Bosun's Whistle, (which somewhat resembles a small tobacco pipe) specifically to "pipe aboard" the ship's brass, other fleet officers and various civic dignitaries, as they near the top of the gangplank, and prepare to step aboard the ship.
The announcement would be the whistle (about a 3 to 5 second sounding), followed by a P.A. system notice such as: "Commander, Pacific Fleet, Arriving!"
And any sailor worthy of his salt, knows to step onto the deck, smartly return the deck watch's salute, (given, if the arrival is an Officer), then turn to the ship's stern, and to salute the flag found thereon, at once!
Only then does one proceed with their business aboard ship.
Protocol and Tradition. And damn proud to honor it, too.

Nope. I am in my early 40's. Don't like it? Jog on.
I HATE shaving and I got tired of dying it. This is me. Accept it or keep going.
Perhaps I have grown crotchety. It has taken a while for me to like me. If someone does not like me, they can piss off.
No, this is not how I have been in the past.
The turning point was "Christine".
Patrick was the epitome of the pleaser. I gave everything to be who she wanted me to be and it was never enough. In the end she dumped me, yet kept me hanging on until she found someone else.
It was devastating. To give your all and still fail destroyed me.

I'm not any better than you at this or anything; I'm just pointing out some things that I know on a purely logical level to be true. And I hope it helps you.
You meet a girl, and you just instantly like her for no apparent reason at all and are kind of interested in being with her, right? Chemistry. It happens.
Well, just as often as you're thinking it'd be really nice to be with that chick, women who meet you are also thinking it'd be really nice to be with you. It goes both ways.
But, when you meet a girl you like... you sort of try to hide your feelings, don't you? Me, too! Rejection sucks, after all.
And... guess what? Women who are genuinely attracted to you will also try to hide their feelings! It really does work both ways.
I don't really know how to make use of this particular bit of knowledge, but one thing I can tell you... the women who are most open and obvious about wanting to have sex with you are really just interested in having sex with somebody, and it doesn't necessarily have to be you, as far as they're concerned.
Women will sometimes pretend to be really deeply attracted to you when all they actually want is to get laid by somebody, anybody, and they choose you because you're aesthetically pleasing and you seem like an easy target.
The women who actually feel something for you and want a serious relationship with you are much harder to detect.
And, I'm convinced that you will not find them on a dating site or app. Those are just a big waste of time and money for guys like you and me, because women on those sites/apps are not immediately meeting you face-to-face, and so they're not getting that chemistry; they're just deciding whether or not you're worth meeting on purely prejudicial factors.

I just can't buy the Russia-wants-Trump line. It makes no sense to me at all.
Posted by: Margarita DeVille at December 10, 2016 12:08 AM (Nox3c)
It's not so much that they want Trump. It's more that they don't want Obama (and his third term as represented by Hillary).
Recall ... Obama (and Hillary) accused Putin of cheating in his last election.
Obama and Hillary heavily lectured Russia and Putin about their "anti-gay" law passed a few years ago.
Obama was openly supportive of the "protesters" in the Ukraine, which many think was a US govt (namely state department) & EU-backed endeavor to get Ukraine to be more friendly with the EU and less friendly with Russia.
Obama has continued Bush's push for "regime changes" around the world -- notably the disastrous Arab Spring and the ill fated Libya adventure.
In Putin's mind and the Russian psyche, (real or imagined), Russia is on the US's list of countries needing a regime change. That's a very scary proposition if you're Putin.
Then Trump comes along, talking about America and seemingly looking more inward. He calls regime change in the middle east a disaster. He seems uninterested in meddling in other countries affairs...
you can see how the Russians would prefer Trump.
All that being said, i doubt the Russian govt was behind the Podesta hack. But who knows? We probably never will.
I fail to see how it changes anything. The Podesta hack was just that -- Podesta clicked on a phishing email like a fucking idiot and his private thoughts got released to the world. He has no one to blame but himself.

Anyway, the idea is that some combinations of genes would be the best fit together, and we may have evolved some sort of way to detect that, based on pheromones.
So if someone of the opposite sex sort of turns you off, no chemistry, that might be sort of literally true. The biochemistry doesn't mix.

Back in December, 1983, I was a 'constultant' working for a tax group at Citibank (the consultancy was a scam so they didn't have to pay benefits; I was a 'consultant' for over a year). That December, they told me my gig was over. Just the week before, I had received a check in the mail, but not for any of my invoices. Originally, I was going to return the check but that was before the good-bye; I rationalized the check as severance. So I endorsed the check and deposited it into my bank, figuring if CitiBank paid it, tough shit, as I didn't commit any fraud in acquiring the check. The check cleared shortly after. Then about 3 months later, I got a letter in the mail asking for the money back, which I ignored. A few weeks after that, I went to the post office to pick up a registered letter. Once I saw the envelope was from Citibank, I declined to sign for the letter. Never heard from them again. That $3,200 helped pay my income taxes, including the higher FICA tax. I guess it depends on the size of the bank and what their threshold is for writing off checks/lost money.

Whenever I'm in a valley with the ladies, it tends to strongly mirror the times in my life when I'm heavier, less confident, having something about my career that I'm unsure of, and finding excuses to avoid company and neighborhood gatherings.
Whenever things are going better with the ladies, its inevitably during times when I feel better about myself and my circumstances.
Want the attention of one or more ladies? Address as many OTHER factors in your life as you can...eventually one or more ladies will find you. They're really aren't any shortcuts...particularly if you want something that might last awhile.
But the good news is that you don't have to actually *solve* all of the problems you feel badly about. You just have to be actively engaged in *addressing* them--something about that engagement will raise your confidence to the point where you are noticed again. Women want to believe in something--if you don't believe in yourself, that in and of itself is the problem.

A woman who knows how to fix a car, shoot a gun, yet is still feminine.
A woman who will challenge me. A woman at least as intelligent as me. Smarter is ok.
No, I don't care if she makes more money than me.
Humor is a big deal with me as it is how I approach life. If she is
not ok with Blazing Saddles or Airplane, that COULD be a disqualifier.

You know what? That sounds doable. Now, where are some places where you would meet women like this? Shooting ranges? Junk yards, looking for parts? Forget about the usual. I don't think this woman will be in a bar or club.

My experience has shown me that the majority of people are selfish. If you are cool with that, other people can be fun / amusing.
I can't stand it. Watching people treat others (and myself) as tools to achieve some sort of self-interested gain gets old.
Tried the whole being an example and being forgiving thing. It doesn't help them or me.
So, I just applied Occam's Razor to the problem of 'People'.
Solitude is an awful thing. But it rarely disappoints.

It's only natural for a woman to want a man to take care of her. You have to be able to do something for her that she can't do for herself.

I have a theory. I suspect that the talent drives the artist -- painter, scientist, writer, musician, what have you -- rather than the opposite. In my day, I have met several actual geniuses, and not one of them was able to communicate or relate to us non-geniuses in any meaningful way. I read a theory somewhere that proposes that the general population of mankind will never be able to surpass the 160 IQ level. There may be a few of them around, but they usually need handlers. A little bit of talent is good. Heaping helpings of talent isn't quite so good.

I admit I could stand to be a little less particular about women. But women could stand to be a little less particular, too. Too many have all these rules: he's GOT to be wealthy (or at least make more than me), he's GOT to work in a certain industry, he's GOT to be really slim.
Sure, to repeat, there's men who are like this too. They'll all end up lonely too. But that's kind of cold comfort for guys like me who always seem to be hitting walls about meeting women. "Ewww, he's not driving a BMW, I think I'll pass on him..."

No, not really --- but you do make some good arguments to support that conclusion.
The problem I would have with Trump, if I were Putin, is that he's not a known quantity. And he is not an ideologue.
Putin knows a two-bit leftist like Obama like a book. Hell, he WROTE the book. He knows a corruptocrat like Hillary. If Trump were a true isolationist ideologue like, say, Ron Paul, he would have a handle on that.
But Trump is a wild card. Putin knows that Obama and Hillary don't particularly care about the American interest. He suspects that Trump does. But what will Trump see as that interest and how will it be pursued once he's in office? Putin doesn't quite know. WE don't quite know.
What we do know is that Obama's reign has been very good to Putin. If I were him, I'd wouldn't want a significant change.

You actually can change that, but you need to flood your brain with positive distractions to turn that shit off. It's not easy, but it can and must be done.
First of all, remember that you're judging the you of the past, who knew a lot less, had a hell of a lot less on the ball than the present you. Don't beat up that Steve - it's not fair. FORGIVE him his dumbassery, and move on. When you find yourself revisiting past humiliations, immediately change the subject in your mind to something fun or intriguing.
If you aren't looking back and seeing how much better you've gotten, what are you doing with your life?

I think it's important to not underestimate how... paranoid (? not really the right word. maybe insecure is a better word) the Russians are as a people. I've always been fascinated by Russian history. They have always been the insecure backwards hillbillies of Europe. They have not been treated well by either the Europeans or the Asians. They have a deep distrust (and not without reason) of, well, everyone.
So yes, Trump is an unknown to them. But I really truly believe that there are many in Putins inner circle and around the country who think that Obama (and, as an extension, Hillary) are trying to overthrow the Russian government. Whether it's to steal their oil, or their "technology" or whatever... so much of the psyche of the country is driven by this (not totally irrational given their history) fear of outsiders trying to destroy them.
So I don't think they're actively excited about Trump. But I think they are / were actively scared of Obama / Hillary. They have injected so much uncertainty in to foreign affairs that no one really knows WHAT the American left (and European allies) are capable of.
In other words, they'd rather gamble on an unknown like Trump then a known unknown like Hillary.
but again, I don't think the Russian gov't is actively doing anything here... just saying that if we polled Russians and especially those close to Putin that's what I think we'd find.
Just my opinion though.

Putin wants what's best for Russia. Trump wants what's best for America. There's grounds for negotiation.
Putin, through his intelligence sources, knows that Hillary is a sociopath, if not an outright psychopath.
Putin wants what's best for Russia, but that does not include blowing up the world, so he'd prefer to avoid that if possible.
Therefore Trump is the more rational choice.

But I realize full well that I have never succeeded at fitting into the "conventional" lifestyle of the suburban hamster wheel denizen. Horizons always are too strong a call, be it long-haul motorcycle touring, sailing over the curvature of the earth to see "what's next", you name it.
Innumerable different, interesting and often dangerous jobs, making a living by my wits, straight commission sales and sole proprietor businesses.
Not exactly the "Mr. Security" that so many women crave to put their minds at ease.
Conversely though, even now, if I could find one to ride along with me, instead of stewing at home and bitching about how long till I'm back home and doing the honey-do list.
Not that I mind the list, especially when it includes me making more sawdust! But still. One to ride the bikes, help trim the sails and just generally go along and enjoy the ride as it unfolds.
That'd put the icing on the cake. It really would.

I think Putin has respect for Trump sort of in the same way he had respect for W. He sees him as another alpha male. Someone that loves his country and wants to be a leader that does what's best for it.
Whereas Obama was a weak willed toadie that Putin knew he could roll over pretty easily whenever he wanted and Obama signaled that very heavily.
So you're going to have a lot more respect and likability for someone you see as an equal even if you are in a bit of an adversarial situation at times than some little bitch that will roll over and show you their belly whenever you walk in the room.

Last attempt at making you feel better:
I have talked about it here before so it's nothing new, so I dont want advice. I have come to terms with my present conundrum and have made it work for me. The serial cheater that I'm in love with is also bi. He is so handsome but after he confessed that to me it pretty much killed any physical attraction to him bc I keep picturing him with a dick in his mouth. But, other than, he is perfect in every way, and he really does love me selflessly so I consider myself lucky to have him in my life.

I had a boss back in the 1990s who was just crazy about strip clubs, I think if he didn't have to work he'd tell his wife he had a job anyway, just so he could hang out at one all day long.

By CA law, I believe it's actually unlawful for the patrons and the dancers to touch each other at all. But at this club, supposedly the dancing girls will be openly physically affectionate with the male patrons. (And of course as a result, their dancers make bank.)

Thank you sir..
I don't post often (unless it's a snarky thread thread, etc) because someone smarter than me always says, generally, what I'm thinking, but you and the others guys discussing this all seem like really good men, who don't seem to realize we are all in same emotional boat. Seems that we are getting fewer and fewer as the safe-space crowd comes of age and we really are needed in the world. We have to keep on keepin on.
I don't approach women as a conquest in the making, that path always leads ro a cliff for one of us. I approach them as a potential plus to my life who happen to be crazy, wonderful beings who can be a joyous thing.
Sometimes it works, and sometimes I go to my buddies house and we drink scotch and tell lies...one is better than the other, but neither are negative..

There must be some kind of high for guys like that.
When I was 21 me and a few guys went to Le Girls here in AZ. All nude. I felt out of sorts because while the guys around me were excited, I understood the ladies were performing STRICTLY for money. I knew I wasn't going home with any of them, and I did not view them as sluts or hookers. Not one dancer went by without me tipping them.
Women are not vaginas with a support system and I will never view them as such.

while you stop thinking on what you lost every day, and bit by bit the
pain lessens. And one day you realize that grief that was such a huge
part of your life is now small and you start wondering if you should
feel guilty that such an enormous event in your life doesn't blot out
the horizon for you any more.

I'm not saying every stripper is like that, and I'm not saying you're wrong to think the way you do about strippers.

Best recipe: 1/2 c fresh lemon juice, 1/2 c fresh lime juice, 4 tsp each lemon and lime zest, 1/4 c sugar, pinch of salt. Stir occasionally and refrigerate for 4-24 hours, strain. Mix equal parts of juice with blue agave tequila and triple sec.

I work with a woman who is HOT.
She is in her 20's and thought that on the 3rd date she HAD to have sex with a guy because it was the 3rd date!
When did that rule go into effect?

In about 2006, I had a temp job in Irvine where I was assigned to do... nothing. I'm not kidding. Literally nothing. I had a co-worker and my boss kept assigning everything to him, and kept telling *me* I'd have an assignment soon.
On top of that, my co-worker was breezing through the work and also had nothing to do for about half the day. So one day he brought in his PlayStation Personal, and we watched "OfficeSpace" ALL THE WAY THROUGH. (Thankfully, we were far away from the boss' office.) On the company's dime. It was my first time seeing it, I loved it.
Still can't get over the irony... ;-)

I have never encountered the prostitution angle.
I did have a stripper with fresh vomit breath ask me if I wanted a lap dance. The answer was no of course.
I actually dislike lap dances.
Two of my exes were strippers. They both said half the dancers were lesbians. A quarter was bi, and the other quarter was straight. 100% thought men were idiots for giving them money to get naked.

There was a place here called The Alaskan Bush Company that was notorious for it. One night while partying a bunch of the guys decided to go there. I said no thanks and stayed behind.

I was able to order three of the bearings on Amazon for about $5 each, on average. The fourth one would have been too long to ship, but it's a 6202Z, which is a common automotive bearing, and I ought to be able to get it locally.
The motor seems to be well-made, and the helical gears had lubricant, and showed no wear I could see. The weak point seems to be the use of plastic to house the commutator end bearing, which is tiny, and spins at maybe 20000 RPM. Plastic makes a lousy heat sink, so if the bearing runs hot, there's no way for it to cool.
The bearing seat has wallowed out a bit. When I reassemble it, I may have to shim the bearing, and will set it in with JB Weld, so the next time it fails, it's done and gone.

The motor shaft has a cooling fan on it, that is supposed to draw cool air past the bearings and armature. But the end cover of the motor blocks any airflow directly past the bearing.
I think the simplest solution is, knowing the weak point is lack of cooling on this crucial bearing, is to duty-cycle it. Run it for 5 minutes; let it cool for ten. Last year, I had it running for an hour at a time, cutting up scrap wood into small pieces for the firepit. No more of that!

Funny you mention that.
I have a HF dremel, the cheap one. A lady friend got excited when she saw it.
She was disappointed when I told her it was not up to the standards of the nail places she frequented. Told her not to run it more than 20 min at a time.

I am impressed by how they have managed to cost-engineer stuff down to the price point they do. And have it work at all. The saw table is cast aluminum with a nice finish. The miter gauge track is dovetailed, a feature which my good cast iron saw at home lacks. The main housing is molded plastic, that incorporates many ribs and box sections for rigidity, and succeeds quite well in that respect. The motor armature is wound with heavy wire, and coated with what looks like epoxy resin, and seems to be well-made. The gears must have been preoperly made and heat-treated, because they show negligible wear. The motor has plenty of power, and will rip a 2X6 easily.
The thing about Harbor Freight, and Princess Auto in Canada, which occupies a similar niche, is that they enable one to own a nifty power tool, capable of doing serious work...for a period of time. At a fraction of the cost of a pro-grade tool. For what I am doing here in AJ, I can just mentally sink the cost of the HF tools into "construction expenses." And I did manage to get two sheets of 3/4" plywood cut and set in place to rebuild the trailer floor. Just a 16" by 8 foot strip left to do, and I can make that up from scrap plywood on hand.

Hey, Hat.
Talked to Cthulhu for (too long of) a bit last night. He says Hi.
He speaks really highly of you.
I don't see anytime soon that I would ever be out that way, but I'd love to take you up on that offer.
If you ever get to the right coast, look me up - your offer works both ways.

Just saw a commercial on MeTV.
The original MacGyver series is going to start airing on Monday.
I wonder if it stands the test of time?
Now, if they'll just bring back Rockcord!
Harbor Freight? I try not to buy anything with moving parts there, but $9 for an angle grinder is hard to pass up when you need one and you're broke. It's hit or miss there.

Heh. I have the January Blowout sale flyer on my desk as we speak. I got some of those LED work lights/trouble lights/flashlights from Princess Auto back home, and brought two down here. Still working fine on their issue batteries. They beat the old bulb-type flashlights all to Hell.
Trick with both those stores is to shop the sales, and buy as little non-sale stuff as possible, because nearly the entire inventory of the store gets cycled through the sale flyers over the course of a year. The welder I paid $110 for 2 years ago is $87.99 in the January flyer. But I needed it when I bought it.

I had a friend, from a circle of friends, who was as queer as the day is long, but a handsome devil, who the ladies loved. He never flamed out on his straight friends, and had cool cars and guy toys. He looked exactly like the guy on the ZigZag cigarette paper package. I mean, exactly. AIDS got him. You could say he was an early adopter.

Chi, I like Cooth, and miss him here, but his bannination was not capricious. I was here. He'd gotten it into his head that AndyCanuck was Ira, and refused to cease and desist after being cautioned by the Cob in charge. I suspect he would be reinstated if he did a mea culpa and asked to be reinstated, but perhaps he is too stiff-necked to ask.

Pretty sure my late friend was exclusively gay. Women found him very attractive and charming, but he just wasn't into them. He kept his gay life pretty much compartmentalized away from his interactions with straights like me who were his second-tier friends. It was a topic of discussion that never came up. That he was gay was a known fact. Leave it there. "Now, let's talk about the Alfa Romeo Montreal" ( which he had 2 of, at one point)

I was here that night also. He is always behind in the post count, and may have not caught up to CBD's warning, but he didn't deserve the hammer.
There are people here tonight that have done and said MUCH worse things, but are still here.
There are more than one posters (again, at least one here tonight) that have been banned, but have worked around it by name & hash changes. Cooth has taken his punishment, issued said mea culpa (to no effect), and could easily be posting now.
But I know the man well - he has too much respect for ace & this place to backdoor his way here.
I figure that if I bug ace & the CoBs enough, they'll either relent or ban me. Either way, my life will go on.
Hope you're enjoying your stay in AJ. Sounds like you're getting some work done. Good for you.

3. Ignoring 2 COB's when told to stop causing trouble.
4. Getting an ONT shut down because of #3
5. Being extra obnoxious to AndyCanuck.
You want your friend back? Fine I can do it. I want two things. An apology to AndyCanuck and a promise never to mention Ira and anything he may or may not have done, ever again.

Well, I'll assume you are who I think you are...
He may or may not be reading right now. ?
His compliance with your demands is totally on him.
But he waited a looong time and has sent his apology along. It's in your hands now.
And I ain't here to defend him - I told him more that once to slow his roll.
But allow me this - you're cool with another poster nastily blasting away at 2 or 3 other long-timers here with ugly personal insults, apologizing, then doing it again a week later? NASTY comments and name calling.
You're cool with a banned commenter coming back in surreptitiously with a new nic (even though his behavior has vastly improved)?
I've seen guys that have been total jerks back within two weeks. If you have a personal thing against cth, well, it is what it is. He didn't deserve the ban is all I'm sayin'

No need. He's free.
When it comes to other posters I will not remove a ban put on by someone else. I did not ban MWNP so I do not know what happened there.
Several people I have banned have came back with new names and hash's but have modified their behavior enough not to be renamed.
It takes a lot to rile me up and thats the way it should be. I do not ban for light or transients reasons and if someone else gets banned, do not come running to me to unban them.
Also do not come running to me to ban someone. That will not happen.
BTW, I have Ace's permission to open carry. Most others that I know of do not.

Hanging in there, Chi. Got a certified letter from my device cardio. Apparently, the battery in my ICD model has been shown to deplete rapidly, as in going dead within a couple of days (it's supposed to be good for 5 years, less shocks, and mine was implanted in May, 2015). I see the doc on Tuesday to discuss options as I'm a patient who requires the ICD for pacing as well as to deliver shocks. When the P.A. mentioned the pacing bit, I raised my hand. She pulled my records and said it looks like I'm a 'gray area'. So it's up to the doc to decide if I need surgery to replace the battery/unit. Based upon my knowledge of my heart situation, I'm thinking I have a greater than 65% chance that I'll need surgery early in January to fix the battery problem.
It's always sumptin'.
And what's the deal with batteries these days? Galaxy phones exploding and now my ICD battery dying might be the literal death of me.

And by the way, Carson's drummer Eddie Shaughnessy was no slouch either.
Their are so many out there that blow me away it's unreal.
One I saw recently, whose name I don't know, is playing on the Joni Mitchell "Shadows and Light" vid.
So damn effortless and just played what fit perfectly.
Jaco Pistorious and Pat Matheny on that stage too so...

Teej, Mom has told me about strapping on my cowboy outfit & strumming along with Johnny Cash in front of a tiny B&W tv (circa 1970? When did he have a variety show?).
I don't really remember it, but she apparently has a picture. Stashed somewhere along with the pic of me watching the moon landing on the same TV.
My best friend (RIP, Bruce) was friends with Neil Peart. And Lee Greenwood's drummer - Mark something?
Tried to get me to join his band - up front, but I found out after almost a year of trying that I have no talent (still have my old ibanez guitar, though).
Meh - I can carry a tune OK, but when I went to one of their practice sessions, they were playing the theme song from Friends. I walked back upstairs & hung out drinking wine with all the wives.
The world is better off. I stick with singing in the shower.

Heh.
I think Bruce caught me singing SRV at full volume one day when I thought I was alone. "Dude! You gotta front our band!"
Umm, I can't recite the Lord's Prayer in a public setting without shitting my pants, & I have been saying that since I was 5 - I ain't getting on a stage. Besides, I have no talent - I've been trying to learn play guitar for a year and can't strum a chord.
"No problem! You can play bass!"
(Damn, I miss that man)
If I catch just the right buzz, I'll sing in public. I did once in the smoking lounge at the Atlanta airport and got rave reviews. Sinatra. World on a string - probably my best.
Never had the stones to do karaoke, though.

In a group of people I don't know I tend to do the semi wallflower thing.
You start to get some positive feedback from the crowed though and that starts going away.
Hell, I'm still usually just a bit nervous when we start playing. More so when friends who haven't heard us are there.
But then we start playing and it just becomes so damn much fun being a part of what Gary and Steve are doing,,,

Lets just say that Russia is not known for accurate artillery fire. What the lacked in accuracy, they more than made up with the quantity they could deliver on any targeted area.
Thats been changing though. The Russians under Putin have been gaining in that area and can still conduct massive area bombardments if it suits their needs.
The U.S. is still second to none in the accuracy department. With laser guided munitions a 155 round can be put on a 1 meter target. Easily.
There are all kinds of problems faced if we get into a shooting war with Russia. Too many to discuss here.

The sister of that thug who killed two cops in Americus says "He didn't have hate in his heart for no one. I know that." I wonder if she knew the guy had a 31 page rap sheet.

They were young & unsure of themselves early on.
Sill tours with Tommy Shannon (bassist) & Reese Wynans (keys) comes in occasionally. I don't know about any vocalist, but I think they still go by "Double Trouble" - I think.
IMO, the best trio around. Unseated Gibbons, Hill & Beard for that title, and that's sayin' something.

Geert Wilders, an elected member of the Dutch parliament, just criminally convicted of "inciting racial discrimination" for advocating an end to Muslim immigration.
Think about that. Not even convicted for "discrimination" --but for "inciting" discrimination. That is, the citizen may be sent to prison for saying something, that to someone else, might encourage them to have an impermissible thought about a group of people.
When they went after Guy Earle in Canada a couple years ago with a Human Rights Commission charge in Canada, a comedian for F's sake, for making lesbian jokes to a fat, female heckler with a bad haircut, I thought the world had gone off the rails.
Oh and they fined the sh*t out him, ruined his career and effectively put a self-censor in the heads of every Canadian comedian ever since.
Then we've had all the attempts to equate words with physical violence, and the insane repetition of the most moronic, dangerous, Orwellian idea I've heard in my lifetime of "hate speech." Which is now supposed to set the "boundaries of responsible speech" --which of course negates the core concept of freedom of thought, that ideas that make everyone comfortable don't need any legal protection, and only when speakers "offend" someone is there even any need for a legally protected right to speech. But no, with "hate speech" the heckler's veto is now official policy: if someone other than a member of the official cultural Commissariat (i.e. anyone not a TV or Hollywood producer, in a multi million dollar production) makes a film, or says something, that "offends" or "triggers" anyone --well of course that's "hate speech" and they must be shut up as "haters."
And now, we have a criminal conviction for a politician speaking out against an open borders public policy. And now, in Europe, politicians (let alone ordinary citizens) may be fined or jailed for DISAGREEING with the policy of their government on immigration, if they dare to advocate for that position by giving the electorate a reason why they may not want open borders from country x, y or z.
And in a classic display of stray voltage, Angela Merkel comes out in favor of a burka ban. Yay! So she can debate whether she's "too tough on Muslims" when flooding her country with a million Muslims a year, and her brethren in the EU are criminally convicting anyone who might disagree with that.
And... in the UK they have now "banned" ads directed towards children. And of course, "Australian style gun control" has confiscated the firearms of the entire populace.
So much for Europe and the "English speaking world." When it comes to freedom, we're the last one standing.
