Overnight Open Thread (12 Aug 2017)

Mega Millions Winner

$393 Mega Millions winning ticket sold in Chicago suburb. Hope whoever that is flees that state before claiming it. Is Illinois even paying their winners?

Internet Security

I'm always leery of installing any app, no matter where it's from. Researchers report >4000 apps that secretly record audio and steal logs.

Larry Graham

Fake Business

How Tesla's Elon Musk became the master of fake business.

The Tesla, in effect, is a beautifully engineered toy for the conspicuous-consumption market, accessible to millionaires but beyond the reach of the commercial market. Neither it nor most other electric vehicles have any place in a competitive, free-market environment. As an indication of how economically injurious these playthings are to society on the whole, the U.K.'s National Grid estimated that Britain would need to increase its peak generating capacity by 50 per cent to meet the government's plans for electric vehicles, the equivalent of building 10 new nuclear plants.

Beer Flood

This 1814 beer flood killed eight people. Dayum. A 15 foot high tsunami of beer?

The Bone

NY Times

NYT asks which is greater threat to Guam: Climate change or nuclear war? I thought it was most in danger of flipping over?

Oh Canada

Surely this is just a bad article right? Everything is lamer in Canada, including sex.

51 It seems odd, somehow, that the police in Charlottesville didn't keep the two groups distant/separated one from the other. Different rally points, different parade routes. They had permits to demonstrate and were registered with the city/county were they not?

no news

I think both sides in this kind of case want a civil war, and the left will most likely lose. but just my opinion based on the fact that the left has been looking for a violent revolution for decades. and the real right wing are the people with guns and who kind of know how to use them. (How many progs were in the military? how many Bernie bots?)

and no point in Trump speaking up, we know he's not a Nazi and the far left will never think otherwise.

98 There was a tweet, a comment, or a news report ( I saw it on the internet) that said the park was pronounced 'closed' and people were ordered to leave.

The Alt-Right Fascists obeyed the government decree and left the playing field. The Alt-Left, AntiFa did not leave and began assaulting police.

I guess, if you are AntiFa one fascists looks pretty much like another.

How do you conceal their identity and shift the blame to a targeted class instead?", etc. The funny thing is they don't realize how transparent it's all become.

That's the most pressing problem of 16-21 year olds? Really? Call me old-fashioned, but the focus for 16-21 year-olds should be on their education and getting jobs, not "making sex fun".

As the saying goes, the best way to success is to (1) graduate high school/college/trade school/military (2) get a job (3) don't have kids until you're married. You have all the time in the world to play around with discovering how to "make sex fun" when you're married.

My neighbor mowed my yard today, so it looks good. and since I've been working working working, I can pay him, send my daughter a little something in her birthday card, and lots of other things I couldn't do if I just had one part time job with the PO.

126 So, found some Come to Poppa vid last evening. Great vid, slutty chicks, swing around to the song.

Here is my question, in all seriousness, where do you think the vid was made? The graffiti is in french and german. There are palm trees. When you get to the 50 sec mark "Bielefeld" is written on the wall behind the dancer, which is a german town. The larger words below Bielefeld seem to be something along the lines of "peur cloud" which maybe be something to do with fear cloud or why fear the cloud. Other stuff is written around there that makes me think it is probably in europe, maybe on the med somewhere?

Since the girls are not all inked up it may be older.

a) we all need to push back on this fake media / dem "alt-right" meme. It's not a thing. It was originally used by the never trumpers to describe the "anti Semites" writing at breitbart (half of whom were jewish) and now is used to describe... well, anyone the media doesn't like.
b) there are only a handful of actual "white supremacists" in the country, half of whom are FBI agents.
c) I'm super suspicious of this entire media narrative around what has been going down in c'ville over the past few days. I haven't been able to find any verifiable information about who was actually where and doing what. Seems like there was at least a small contingent of fringe figures involved, but uh.. seems like it was mostly a protest over the removal of a Robert E Lee statue that was ambushed by the normal suspects.

162 This, below, is quite a masterful way of hedging just who did what to who. It's all "the crowd."

" "State police, Charlottesville police, with the assistance of National Guard personnel, moved the crowd through the streets to disperse them," Corinne Geller, Virginia State Police spokeswoman, told Fox News.

"In the crowds, on all sides, they were throwing bottles, they were throwing soda cans with cement in them, they were throwing paint balls, they were fighting --- breaking out and attacking one another --- launching chemicals into the crowd, and as well as smoke bombs and so forth," she added. "No local or state police had deployed any tear gas."

=============

He said the anti-fascists are our "better angels" or something. He obviously missed the red hammer and sickle flags on the "better angels" side.

Quote:

"Nothing less is at stake on the streets of Charlottesville, Virginia, where a violent attack has taken at least one American life and injured many others in a confrontation between our better angels and our worst demons. White supremacists and neo-Nazis are, by definition, opposed to American patriotism and the ideals that define us as a people and make our nation special."

I actually get along fine with all the black employees at the company. The guy who is the Site Manager is just a real two-faced asshole, and I'm not the only one who thinks so. Our CEO is a towering pile (6ft 4") of Danish Eurotrash.

Our company is now owned by a huge Japanese corporation, and it's funny to see all the executives weasel walk when the Japs are around, then trash them behind their backs.

It's a shame that we don't have a 'zombie' in major cities all over the country for these things. 'zombie's infiltration and then reports on zombietime blog were masterful at exposing the Left's radicalism. Those woke me up to how much the media was spiking regarding the Left's vile and hate at these rallies.

That's really what needs to start happening more and more, because otherwise the media is just going to work with Obama, Soros and the Democrats to stir up more of this nonsense, just like they did with Black Lives Matter and use it to smear Trump and the GOP and block anything they want to do.

The Daily Mail has the scoop on One Armed Girl. Her name is Lauren, she's in San Diego, and lost the arm in a moped accident about one year ago. She was shit faced drunk when she wrote up the Tinder profile and doesn't even remember doing it.

Besides "arm dealer" she rated herself as follows:

Hands down the best catch on Tinder
Face 10/10
Body 9/10
Personality 20/10
Arms 1/2

She also put up a picture of her stump. She had painted a little face on it, with a mouth, eyes, and nose, and stuck a cigarette in it.

Also, she was at the beach coming out of the water and some little kid asked her what happened to her arm. She said, "Shark!"

306 "I think the ugly truth of today`s events shows us that we cannot coexist with these people."

Well they are certainly a bit more open about it these days aren't they? Mandatory "Hate Whitey" indoctrination at public universities.

"We will be labeled and demonized regardless of our actions or sentiment, for merely being white."

Yepper. In a race war, we're born with our uniform. You may not be interested in race, but they are interested in you. That's why it's so insidious. Notice that being an American citizen is rapidly losing any advantage in many ways. It's being delegitimized. If being an American no longer means anything, where does that lead? Well - see above! They think of you as white first and foremost.

"The political class across the board, including the republican elite, have taken a stand to demonize us, to cast us as terrorist while the leftist scummers are seen as pure and justified for attacking us...Many here, as do I, cherish the rule of law, but when it is being yielded as a club to stomp us and our beliefs, it cannot be respected as intended!

They think the left is being open and honest in their accusations, and that if they just assure the left they are not racists and lash out at their own party to prove how unbiased they are, the left will love and accept them. They don't realize it will never be enough.
Posted by: Steve and Cold Bear at August 12, 2017 10:48 PM (/qEW2)

-----------------------------------------------------

Here is the problem:

Situation 1. Shooting of Steve Scalise. The RINOs are first to run out and absolve the Democrat Party of all responsibility. Meanwhile certain democrats hint that Scalise was a racist and sort of got what was coming to him, and that Trump somehow created the "atmosphere of hatred". RINOs then rush to agree that Trump got Scalise shot.

Situation 2. Today. RINOs demand Trump must condemn "White Nationalism". Democrats agree.

This is how it is every time. Dems demand the GOP take responsibility for "right wing" violence which the GOP happily does. Then when "left wing" violence takes places the Dems say it is not their fault, and the GOP happily agrees.

This is why the Democrat party still controls congress despite being a minority party in both houses.

Which it is.

It's just the easiest Goddamn trap in the universe to disarm.

Tell the damned truth.

I don't have any sympathy for Nazis and I don't have any sympathy for Commies, because they're both sacks of crap.

It doesn't even take that many words.

*Not* doing it just extends the argument, which may be the actual point for all I know.

Obama certainly did his level best to keep the birther crap going.

Unfortunately, most politics seems dedicated to extending arguments, to the detriment of everyone but politicians (and their minions and hangers-on).

324 Lauren, One Armed Girl, was thrown off a moped and her arm hit a road sign and it just sliced it off, bless her heart.

A cop saved her life by making a tourniquet and kept her from bleeding out.

Not trying to make light, but I didn't know you could go that fast on a moped to create enough force to completely amputate a major limb. Maybe they sharpen the posts on the road signs wherever that happened.

340 Terry "the Human Ferret" MacAuliffe took time off from his day job of funneling money to the FBI Director for the Clintons to do some grandstanding.

First he thanked the students for protecting the Jefferson statue, which is only in danger from their professors. It's sad how they have to try and make everything Selma with selfies just to feel alive.

Then he was off to the races. He told the Nazis to go home, but not the Commies. He said they had no place in America. Fair enough--but have you ever heard him say that to MS-13? Have you ever heard them tell Islamic terrorists to go home? When some Somali drives his car over people, does he talk to them like that? Never.

And when Democrat assassins shoot Republican law-makers, he doesn't mention a 'climate of hate'. Only gun control. Masked Antifa thugs burn Berkeley down and assault people? Silence.

He went on to act like he scolded Trump on the phone for hate speech. Better be careful, Terry; your pals leak all of Trump's phone calls.

And, no, it wouldn't shock me either if this was all staged. Kent State was. Get me Ayers and Creamer on the phone.

344 Meant to share: Jeff Wells went fully apeshit on the "alt-right" in C-ville today. Angry post after angry post.

I responded but didn't go apeshit myself. Referring to Jeff's begging a few days ago at his site for some more money to keep his blog going, I posted:

"And bullshit like this is why I'm glad I didn't bother donating five cents to Jeff. He gets his dirty lucre and goes straight into Stalinist leftist virtue-signaling mode. Here's to years of laughing at leftist tantrums and occasional great movie insights, all 100% for free."

346 The average moped will easily exceed 35 mph.

I know there's not supposed to be any math here, but calculate the energy of a 110 lb. girl getting tossed from her bike at that speed.

Mass times velocity squared, IIRC?

Yeah, plenty of force to sever an arm, especially if it hits one of those "flat-U" type sign posts, edge-on.

ANY thing with a motor and two wheels laid out in bicycle form, is not a toy, even if intended as such.

352 "I think the ugly truth of today`s events shows us that we cannot coexist with these people."

The ugly truth is tha what the MSM and the left are doing to conservatives is what the Nazis and their propaganda did to the Jews in the 30's. A massive campaign to cast them as inhuman and get the rest of the country to accept ever more violence against them. The only reason it hasn't been more successful here is that there are a much higher percentage of us and many are armed. I have no doubt the Dems would be stirring up even more hate and planning harsher measures if there weren't so damned many.

The university (UVA) is nowhere near as bad as, say, Berkeley but is still very left of center.

The city, however, is fullblown crazy left. What you have there is a mixture of university activists and FSA blacks. (About 20% of the residents are black.)

The city of C'ville and Gov. McSleazeball have been promoting today's events for over a week, building it up as some yuuuuuge deal that was about to occur.
They were expecting violence, HOPING for it, IMO, and not taking the necessary steps to avoid it.

378 308----Here is the problem:

Situation 1. Shooting of Steve Scalise. The RINOs are first to run out and absolve the Democrat Party of all responsibility. Meanwhile certain democrats hint that Scalise was a racist and sort of got what was coming to him, and that Trump somehow created the "atmosphere of hatred". RINOs then rush to agree that Trump got Scalise shot.

Situation 2. Today. RINOs demand Trump must condemn "White Nationalism". Democrats agree.

This is how it is every time. Dems demand the GOP take responsibility for "right wing" violence which the GOP happily does. Then when "left wing" violence takes places the Dems say it is not their fault, and the GOP happily agrees.

This is why the Democrat party still controls congress despite being a minority party in both houses.

Time, work, circumstances and remaining energy, all factors in the delay.

It's still on the burner though.


*break*


B-1A. Supersonic. Cancelled by Jimmuh Catah.

B-1B. Supersonic capability, but lower top speed than "A" model. Slightly stealthier frontal aspect resulting from the the "A" to "B" intake changes. "B" model primarily operated in the subsonic range. Program re-instated by Ronald Reagan.

The B-1 *is* the loudest USAF aircraft I've ever been around. But then, I never got to hear a B-47 Stratojet on a takeoff run with the water injection operating.

The B-1 is frikkin' LOUD, with engines at flight-idle, on long final to the runway. And it's LOUD-ER in burner, accelerating to altitude like an F-16 on steroids.

B-1A. Total of four made. Top Speed Mach 2.2 at high altitude. Long distance cruising top speed of Mach 0.8 at low altitude. Program cancelled in '77.

B-1B. Result of program being restarted. Top Speed reduced to Mach 1.25, at the gain of higher low altitude cruising speed of Mach 0.96. Total of 100 made.

416 Isn't the B1b the budget version of the B1a?

Posted by: yankeefifth at August 13, 2017 12:03 AM (0wem/)



"B" model, considerably pricier. That's the electronics though, not the airframe itself. But, it can do more things than the "A" model. Just at a few hundred knots less airspeed.

It can drop a heavier bomb load than the B-52, and carry that load 100% internally in the bomb-bays, vs. the '52 carrying half the load on hardpoints on wings and fuselage.

With the Sniper targeting pod and matching GBU series bombs, it's a "one target, one bomb" system, and it can carry a LOT of bombs!

Very effective system, with lots n' lots of bangs for the bucks!

Back around '84 or so, I had to go and make an emergency "get 'er home" to an 18 ft. Chaparral bowrider boat, with a 135hp Evinrude on a heavy duty galvanized trailer.

It was about fifteen miles from home.

I had to use my 1984 VW Rabbit, with 4 speed manual, to do the task.

Top speed was just under 45 mph, and braking was a long, well considered and carefully executed process.

Did it at four a.m., just to have empty roads and cooler air.

Got it home, but ...barely. Just. Barely.

That was one of those "just because you can't, doesn't mean you should" exercises.

475 The other significant change from the B-1A to the B-1B was the tactical concept that it would get through the densest parts of Soviet/Warsaw Pact air defenses by dipping low, then flying nap of the earth with terrain-following radar to mask itself from enemy emitters.

As with the preceding F-111, which employed the same engagement model in parts of its envelope, B-1 aircrew were killed early on by bugs in the radar, the TFR logic, or the inability of the airframe to cope with abrupt pitch inputs when a mountain showed up unexpectedly ahead.

(Also along the lines of the F-111, the initial B-1 design incorporated a large ejection capsule rather than letting crew members punch out individually. This thankfully got canned.)

In many ways the Bone is a very impressive aircraft. It cost way too much, though, and the USAF didn't buy enough of them.

485 Well, today at stately Peon Manor, I trenched in an audio cable that carries a signal from the speaker jack on this computer out to the amp in the shop, so that I can hear tunes in the shop. The cable had been strung from house to tree to shop, overhead, but had sagged enough to become a nuisance.

So using an axe, or a half-moon edger, I cut a long slit in the turf, pushed the cable into it with a screwdriver, and hammered the slit closed with the back of the axe. Took me a couple of hours, and it's buried at best 2" deep. But that's enough to avoid the lawnmowers and snow blower. The cable itself is old geophone cord, which has a reallytough urethane jacket on it. And it's basically at DC ground, so if moisture should find its way in, there will be no drama.

489 Three of six Combat Lancer F-111As were lost.. Planes went radio silent and did solo ingresses to their targets. Only one crew managed to eject, when the Hard option was selected for TFR combined with how quickly the karst mountains would rise caused tail plane failure and loss of aircraft.

Posted by: original jake at August 13, 2017 12:56 AM (QvI/V)




One does not "pass through" a riot situation. Period, Full Stop.

One AVOIDS a riot situation.

If I were to find myself somehow, suddenly surrounded by a Flash Mob Riot, I'd at least try to find refuge inside the closest retailer, restaurant, etc. Might not be possible, but I'd try.

I'd also take care to make sure that I could not be mistaken for an active participant in the melee.

If I did had to shoot, I'd be shooting from being trapped back behind a dumpster and brick wall, kind of thing.

It DOES SUCK to have to "retreat" to prove a defensive posture...but that's one situation where the odds are loaded so very against you, that you just HAVE to set the stage for the No Other Choice defense.

Argue otherwise if you will, but in vain. You won't win over a jury to acquit you if you're seen as even slightly "the aggressor" in a riot situation.

Pro Tip. AVOID RIOT SITUATION.

I snagged a little Armaco solid-state PA amp this week. Two mike inputs, and a "music" input, all 1/4" phone jacks, and an "aux" input, an RCA jack. Has terminals for 4, 8, and 16 ohm speakers plus 25 and 70 volt line outs.

Armaco (R. Mack and Company) was a big importer/marketer of Japan-made electronics products in Canada in the '60's and '70's. Kind of comparable to Radio Shack, in quality.

Haven't tried it yet.

527 "Think it was the NF-104A."

There were "small motor" and "big motor" variants.

I can't recall which one Yeager wiped out. Probably the big.

I do recall the most dangerous motor on that failed flight turned out to be the ejection seat. After leaving the jet, and separating from the seat, he collided with it again while the spent solid rocket was still hot. It broke his helmet faceplate and ignited his oxygen flow.

As with Niki Lauda, if you are fortunate enough to meet Chuck in person, maybe you don't mention those faint remaining burn scars, or stare. You just remind yourself about the Right Stuff.

Hammer down joint return voyage to Norfolk, VA, from the Med.

Sub arrived in the double digits hours, ahead of the flattop.

And I still don't know how many hours or days either took for the crossing, only the fact that the sub smoked the parking lot.

A certain class of those early Fast Attacks, were VERY Fast Attacks.

Interesting thing. Go Wikipedia any post 1960 sub, by any name you know.

537 "Ship based works for NoKo vs Guam. But how does it work for Russia vs Poland?"

Aegis Ashore is a thing.

The USN have been putting up stationary simulated deckhouses on land, with Aegis arrays, going back to the original proof of concept. Lots easier and cheaper to do the tedious debugging when not at sea.

Likewise with VLS missile cells. They don't care if they are in a steel deck structure or a concrete bunker.

Really, though, when in geographic proximity to Russia, you want every piece of the sensor to shooter loop to be mobile, and move them often. Ivan's doctrine involves putting in Spetsnaz elements early on. To go after those high value assets. Those guys are good at what they do.

<i>Keine Schiess</i> When evaluating his current conduct, keep in mind that he is totally a creature of the GOPe and therefore the Democrats. I was involved with the pre-caucus activities around his nomination, since our TEA Party sponsored the southern Colorado candidate forum for the Senate seat Gardner won. Note that Gardner was NOT one of them. We had a half dozen candidates before the caucuses, mostly members of the legislature.

Before the caucuses, the State Party called all of them in and told them that if they did not drop out, the Party would drop them permanently and instantly. They then announced that everybody had dropped out, and suddenly Cory Gardner was the only one running for the Senate.

I was the one tasked to do the report card on Gardner in the Senate for his first 6 months for our TEA Party. I took it a bit farther. After being elected to the Senate, Gardner was still in the House. But the Republican House leadership had no hold on him, because he was a Senator. Yet he voted with the GOPe consistently including on the Criminal Comprehensive Omnibus Budget Resolution. Once in the Senate, he voted identically with Colorado's Democrat Senator Michael Bennet on all issues of import to the TEA Party.

Gardner is now working with the GOPe in their war against Trump and all his voters. Hard times are coming. Know your friends, and know who is not your friend.

544 Lots of good smart military blog stuff here tonight, kudos.

Only one B-1 story.

At an Air Force/BYU game, at Colorado Springs, in the late 80s.

As one might expect, Air Force gets, um, pretty cool flyovers for their games.

The stadium is perched up on the hillside, we were near the top rim on the southern side, I think. End zone position.

The flyover aircraft came swooping in from the east towards the mountains, turned south, flew straight over the stadium (the long axis).

F-15s, F-16s, as I recall. Then, the B-1. He does the same route, but (apparently) misjudged a bit (too low), so when he came over the stadium .... it was pretty obvious he was too low. We're near the top rim of the stadium, so the noise, wow. And the aroma of the exhaust as it descended onto us.

Anyway, crowd got a thrill, and I think our Air Force liaison told us the flight crew got a reprimand of some kind.

And while it is not exactly consonant with the 1864 Manual of Field Artillery Tactics, we <i>did</i> discover a way to make a canister equivalent of a full choke round.

If I was a candidate, I would probably drop out under those circumstances. That sounds an awful lot like "an offer you can't refuse".

553 Far as I can tell here is what happened. The rally never happened. The organized claim they were attacked by the cops, who refused to arrest them, then pepper sprayed them and fed them to Antifa. They made their escape and then Antifa turned on the cops and tore up the town, as they always do. The guy in the car may have rammed them intentionally, or he may simply have turned down the wrong street and got attacked and then panicked. Nobody knows at the moment.

570 As I said earlier, I've been reading Ann Coulter's book "Demonic".

Leftists always stir up mobs to violence. They identify "enemies of the State" and eliminate them.

She contrasted that with the American Minutemen who were trained, drilled, and focused. They were not a mob.

Perhaps a modern analogy would be snipers who coldly and calmly target specific individual enemies at a distance.

There's a book that talks about a lot of the espionage-related stuff that the subs did during the Cold War. Pretty neat and freaky stuff. The book was a pretty good read.

What I read is that the guy in the car rear-ended another car that was caught up trying to get through the crowd. That car then got pushed forward, and caused the death. Meanwhile, the driver of the first car backed up and fled.

My gut feeling is that the whole thing was an accident. If you're trying to hurt a mass of people with a car, then you aim for the mass of people, and not the car between you and the mass of people.

602 That anti-Tesla article is stupid and dishonest. I wonder if the guy who wrote it is short on the Tesla stock.

Tesla is, on their own, bootstrapping a new technology and infrastructure to support it. They make money on every car they sell, but overall they are still losing money because they are plowing heroic amounts into building their own battery factory, building SuperCharger stations all across America and other countries, and building out a mass-production line to make affordable cars.

The article claims that it's telling that sales of Tesla cars dropped off when tax breaks were removed. When everyone knew the tax breaks were about to end, they bought before the breaks ended, so of course sales went to zero the month afterward... proves nothing about the car itself. And since Tesla has had all these expenses but hasn't started shipping the Model 3 in volume, it's incredibly dishonest to divide the expenses by the number of cars delivered, then compare to established companies that have been shipping for decades.

Tesla has pre-orders for half a million Model 3s. If they don't deliver, bad times ahead, but as long as they deliver they will be hugely profitable in the near future.

You're welcome.

Not up on all the particulars, but it had to do with his computer being hacked and claiming it was a person on this board (also non grata) who did it. He never stopped gnawing at that bone and, if IIRC, a cob got tired of that on the ONT; he was also warned to stop. Like I said, that's what I remember, but my memory has been known to be somewhat, um, . . . faulty. Yeah, that's the word, faulty.

Quite a few bannings occurred last year during the primaries. Trumpers vs. Cruzers (nobody wanted Jeb! [please clap]). There was many an ONT during that period with cobs warning [no primary talk]. Once it came down to Trump or the Hildebeast, things settled down, although some never Trumpers kept picking that scab.

615 Things change. Although I have never worked for Pepperidge Farms, I remember when you posted as "CarolT".

Things always change, whether it's just a name change or a complete turnover in commentators, things change. Going back to the past is rarely an option.

Things change.

619 The guy across the street,
I dropped the T when I noticed. No other Carol posted here.

Were you a lurker or a sock?

Things always change. I want to get rid of my very vain male roommate. He spends half his time looking in the mirror, and wears black mascara because his eyebrows aren't full enough.



I told him tonight & told him he came here with nothing, but a safe, a scale & all weather comforter. Where will he find place that gives him a bed, etc?

621 "Were you a lurker or a sock? "

During that time mostly a lurker. A rare comment here and there. That's all.

622 I don't think Maet wants to be anything other than an average guy now. He had the limelight for what, 7 years?

Gotta take the wind out of ya. IMHO.

623 I suppose it's about time for another Francis Scott Key to write another Star Spangled Banner. Does our Republic still stand this morning? Is America and our Constitution safe against all enemies foreign and domestic?

627 Barak opened his pie hole, from his Twitter 8:06pm yesterday and Weasel Zipper
" No one is born hating another because of the color of his skin or his
background or his religion ..."

Yes Barak, they are soon after indoctrinated in Leftism from their early days in public school.

631 The guy across the street,
He thinks he's so special that he doesn't have anyBO. We all do & he thinks taking a shower 2 to 3 times a week is normal. Then he puts same smelly clothes on when hetakes a shower. He works some nights at a restaurant & food smells get everywhere.

If, for some reason, I don't take a shower one day, I can smell how bad i smell.

635 On Sundays I cook breakfast. But it is hot and heavier food is not so appealing. I think I'm going to make crunchy cinnamon toast. A stick of butter, some white and brown sugar, lots of cinnamon, a drop or two of vanilla all mixed up, then smear it on white toasting bread and broil it until it crusts up very crunchy. I used to make this with bacon for my kids and then we would watch cartoons on Saturday mornings. Sugar and pork. And cartoons. Perfect.

636 The farthest I have ever hit a standard army silhouette is 1000 meters. That was done with iron sights. Three caveats: 1 ) I was 21 years old and had 20/15 vision at the time. 2 ) I was shooting 3 shot bursts from an M-60 machine gun on a bi-pod and I was shooting prone. 3 ) There was evidently no wind that day.

It was at Fort Hood Texas - a few months before I went to Vietnam. There was an old Jeep set up as a target. I had no problem hitting the Jeep. There were several pop-up army silhouettes near the Jeep so I targeted a couple of them and knocked them over also with my first bursts at each. As I remember the peep sights on that M-60 went out to 1100 meters. Wouldn't want anyone shooting at me with an M-60.

637 Anyone else note that the beer flood story cites an anonymous American witness? It was in 1814; we were still at war. It really was a different age.

Don't know if this will reach you, but yes it was a rip off. Normal procedure was that each nominated candidate had a slate of prospective delegates at the State Convention to go to National pledged to their candidate. The State Delegates would vote for the candidates for president, and based on the proportion of votes at the State Convention, the National delegates would be apportioned from among the slates.

In the name of being "uncommitted" the Colorado Republican Central Committee unilaterally changed the rules and presented a take it or leave it slate of National Delegate candidates chosen by them, who would in theory vote their consciences regardless of the preference votes at the State Convention. The preference votes by the State Convention delegates were split as could be expected. Within minutes of that vote it was announced that ALL of Colorado's National delegates had spontaneously chosen Cruz, who the Central Committee coincidentally were working for.

Another reason not to be a Republican. You have no choice of candidates.
