Be honest, but if you order something new it needs to look new when
you give it as a gift. Now it's going to be late and you deserve store
credit, too.

Why, it's Little Red Riding Hood
Hey there Little Red Riding Hood
You sure are looking good
You're everything a big bad wolf could want
Listen to me
Little Red Riding Hood
I don't think little big girls should
Go walking in these spooky old woods aloneOwoooooooo!
What big eyes you have
The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad
So just to see that you don't get chased
I think I ought to walk with you for a ways
What full lips you have
They're sure to lure someone bad
So until you get to grandma's place
I think you ought to walk with me and be safe
I'm gonna keep my sheep suit on
Until I'm sure that you've been shown
That I can be trusted walking with you alone
Owoooooooo!

It didn't matter who it was. A cob posted a great link to a speech that pointed out we're already in the civil war but the shooting hasn't started yet.

The reasoning? Recall the last time an (R) won a presidential election that wasn't bitterly and officially contested by the (D)s, media, lawyers, etc.

Hint: It's not in this century.

55 Little red riding CAP it looks like.

I think this painting would be better if the kid had great big anime eyes and it was on black velvet.

(So I started image-searching for that old comic where Freddy of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers calls those once-popular sad-eyed raggedy children paintings "child prostitutes" - but unfortunately "furry" brings up a lot of images I don't want, and then "child prostitute," well, I closed the tab quick. Maybe if I put safe search back on?)

87 That crock with the paper tied around the top is some sort of preserves. Using a paper or oiled paper top on cooked preserves is a very traditional European style of preservation.
I actually have British preserving books that suggest it and show how to do it.

Grandma (my Grandma no Little Red's) used parafin for the same reason - but that was too advanced for my British canning book.

Two of the main methods were, with sugary stuff, to cook it hot, sterilize the crock and tie paper on the top, and that will mostly keep it good for a while. The other way was to cook meats in lots of fat, and jug the meats covered with the fats. It makes a decent seal and won't go rancid if kept cool for weeks if you are lucky.

Anyhow, that paper covered crock is fascinating to me, it is like seeing someone use a lateen sail on a nearby river or someone plowing with a team of horses.

Nah. It was well early into the primaries, when he started pitching immigration policy. "Somebody's doing the raping!" They thought they had him. They went all in, and his numbers rose. And it made them even more determined.

And with every assault on PC, came a new wave of failed attacks. And they slipped ever more deeply into the abyss.

I've said before that I believe the South will be lost in twelve to fifteen years and that there is absolutely nothing we can do about it. That said, I wonder if the left will ultimately help us. It might be our only hope. They've turned the dial up to 11 way too quickly, and that might turn off a lot of voters in what remains a center-right country. A center-right country full of ignorant people, but still people who can figure out what's best for them and their kids after being hit over the head with what's bad a few times.

For example, that (D) lady in the Georgia governor race is apparently batsh*t crazy, and that's why she won the (D) primary. The "moderate" one wasn't socialist enough.

Modern (D)s repelling "moderate" (D)s + a couple of SCOTUS picks might buy us a bit of time to get things back on track.

Remember, USDA rules were going to make roadside produce stands illegal? And new food safety rules were going to make church-basement dinners subject to restaurant-stainless food prep laws? You weren't going to be able to have a bake sale or a potluck?
And then there was one where, if you had your own garden, if you had people over to dinner (fava beans were not mentioned), you were liable under food-producer rules, so you'd have to have food prep inspectors like at the Campbell's soup plant.
I have not heard how those came out. ISTR that when they were publicized, the comment period was over and we were being told there was nothing we could do to prevent them going into effect.

188 Here's the letter:

Dear Mr. Chairman:

We greatly appreciation your time, patience, and effort with respect to our recent negotiations and discussions relative to a summit long sought by both parties, which was scheduled to take place on June 12 in Singapore. We were informed that the meeting was requested by North Korea, but that to us is totally irrelevant. I was very much looking forward to being there with you. Sadly, based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I feel it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long-planned meeting. Therefore, please let this letter serve to represent that the Singapore summit, for the good of both parties, but to the detriment of the world, will not take place. You talk about nuclear capabilities, but ours are so massive and powerful that I pray to God they will never have to be used.

I felt a wonderful dialogue was building up between you and me, and ultimately, it is only that dialogue that matters. Some day, I look very much forward to meeting you. In the meantime, I want to thank you for the release of the hostages who are now home with their families. That was a beautiful gesture and was very much appreciated.

If you change your mind having to do with this most important summit, please do not hesitate to call me or write. The world, and North Korea in particular, has lost a great opportunity for lasting peace and great prosperity and wealth. This missed opportunity is a truly sad moment in history.

Sincerely yours,

Donald J. Trump
President of the United States of America

191 Auction update...

I picked up the Land Rover and Lincoln Navigator I bought on a online auction the other day.

The Land Rover is at the repair shop being checked for what I think is either an exhaust leak or stuck valve. Other than that, it drives nice.

My Navigator drives like brand new, but needs a few things. I'll put a new set tires on and change the headlights for sparkling clear new ones. I'm not crazy about the aftermarket Pioneer radio, but I can live with it. My daughter saw it parked in the driveway and said she would like it for a back-up car.

All in all, I think these were a good bargain.

205 About Amazon -
I don't like Bezos either. But for writers who can't get published because the publishing industry is completely SJW-controlled, Amazon had been a lifesaver.

Now I wish there would be a real competitor to virtual Kindle ebook monopoly, but until there is I have to keep linking to Amazon and just hoping I fly under their Lefty radar since I am so puny.

I still believe in promoting right-leaning writers; culture shapes politics.

TL;DR: Please keep buying and reading books by right leaning writers even if they are self-published on Amazon.

Check on line for which auction companies operate near you. Take the time to go and check the cars before you bid (you can start them and move them slightly, but can't take them out for a drive). Be open to different cars because you never know what is going to pop up. I was actually looking for a diesel lawnmower when I saw these two cars.

249 One thing about this letter is that Trump has not asked anyone else to go out there and explain why he pulled out. Sure there will be some of that in the days going forward and on Sunday morning. But he very quickly put out the reason in an open and transparent letter for all the world to see.

Posted by: SH at May 24, 2018 10:17 AM (sX1BW)

250 This is apparently what set Trump off...

North Korea is threatening to reconsider Kim Jong Un's participation in a summit with President Trump next month, saying it is up to the United States to decide whether it wants to "meet us at a meeting room or encounter us at nuclear-to-nuclear showdown."

Along with...

A close aide to Kim unleashed a torrent of invective against the Trump administration Thursday morning, calling Vice President Pence a "political dummy" for remarks he made to Fox News on Monday.

"As a person involved in the U.S. affairs, I cannot suppress my surprise at such ignorant and stupid remarks gushing out from the mouth of the U.S. vice-president," said Choe Son Hui, a vice foreign minister who was previously the regime's top official in charge of relations with the United States. The daughter of a former premier, she is also thought to have direct access to Kim.

They're democrats. Hell, even after Reagan won 49 states, they still thought he was illegitimate. It doesn't matter. But I think in this case, they really think that uh, oh . . . this guy fights like we do. He's not going to fight by Queen of Marsiberry (sp) rules. And that's been the fear of Ds. That a candidate would be able to make a case with conservative voters that personal is personal - because in the past, Bush 1 2, McCain Romney would "always take a higher road" because the press would hound him until he did. With Trump, he says Eff' it and moves on. Once conservatives threw overboard the "morality clause" the Ds knew they had closer fight on their hands. And it scares the bejeezus out of them.

265 A close aide to Kim unleashed a torrent of invective against the Trump administration Thursday morning, calling Vice President Pence a "political dummy" for remarks he made to Fox News on Monday.

"As a person involved in the U.S. affairs, I cannot suppress my surprise at such ignorant and stupid remarks gushing out from the mouth of the U.S. vice-president," said Choe Son Hui, a vice foreign minister who was previously the regime's top official in charge of relations with the United States. The daughter of a former premier, she is also thought to have direct access to Kim.

273 I think the Left lost its collective shit at the 2000 election. They have ever after considered that election stolen from them.
I know it was an important election for me. I was flat on my back with a herniated disc and could do nothing but read and watch TV. I had a WTF moment and dug our my old Federalist Papers and read it cover to cover. I finally came to the conclusion that the Left was not operating within the system and in good faith.
I also saw the mask ripped off the MSM. It was about that time that I postulated/predicted where we are today and made plans to get out of solid blue urban RI and head north to Live Free or Die land.
The years that have passed have convinced me that the Left will not operate under the rules any more. This Republic is over as we know it.

278 The National Laughingstock: Ya know, MS-13 aren't really such bad guys:

Washington Post
@washingtonpost
Analysis: Trump again smears a large immigrant community with the violent actions of a few people

From the Washington Post:

The term "killing fields" evokes the murders committed by the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia in the late 1970s. During a five-year period, nearly 1.4 million people were killed as part of a genocide. A photojournalist for the New York Times described that ongoing massacre using the evocative two-word phrase.

By contrast, there were 37 homicides in all of Nassau and Suffolk counties in 2017 - the entirety of Long Island east of New York City. That total was down from 59 the year before. The counties are home to 2.8 million people.

What's more, one speaker during the roundtable noted that there had been 235 arrests of MS-13 beginning in late 2016 - and that there hadn't been a murder linked to MS-13 in the county since April 2017.

When Trump was on Long Island in July, he linked MS-13's crimes to the "more than 150,000 unaccompanied alien minors" who "arrived at the border and were released all throughout our country into United States' communities" under President Barack Obama. A report from the anti-immigration Center for Immigration Studies released in February, though, tallied 560 MS-13 members who had been charged with crimes since 2012 - all but about 35 of whom weren't minors.

He was trying to emphasize how evil this group is , how they kidnap entire families coming across the border illegally and use them as cover to enter the USA. Then blackmail the family with threats they often carry out such as vicious rapes, beatings, etc. He said they have carried out murders in TX in manners that he had never seen in his 20 plus years of law enforcement. He raised his voice in serious concern over what it was going to take for the average citizen to realize what a threat these people are, he equated them to ISIS. And ;why we need a wall and stronger immigration laws.

Menendez was lecturing Pompeo about the Trump administration not having their shit together and that's why the meeting fell apart and Pompeo told him they most definitely did have a plan and it was previous administration who didn't have a plan and that's why we are in the position of having to face a nuclear armed NK today.

That sort of makes my point. Even setting aside the locusts who are moving to and consuming the South, per Pew just on general birth trends:

"Among mothers near the end of their childbearing years, Hispanics and
blacks have the largest families. On average, a Hispanic mother ages 40
to 44 has had about 2.6 children. By comparison, black mothers have had
about 2.5. White and Asian mothers have families that are a bit smaller,
on average. White mothers have 2.3 children, and Asian mothers have 2.2
children."

That sort of makes my point. Even setting aside the locusts who are moving to and consuming the South, per Pew just on general birth trends:

"Among mothers near the end of their childbearing years, Hispanics and
blacks have the largest families. On average, a Hispanic mother ages 40
to 44 has had about 2.6 children. By comparison, black mothers have had
about 2.5. White and Asian mothers have families that are a bit smaller,
on average. White mothers have 2.3 children, and Asian mothers have 2.2
children."

Essentially all of the blacks are (D)s. Same with hispanics.

Even in the South, half of the whites are. In the cities the white (D)s are much greater a percentage.

We can't out-birth the people who are already out-birthing us, much less those moving here.

I saw some statistics this morning which were being compiled for a research paper, stating the white population of the US is 61% as of 2017.

That number is much lower than I thought it would be.

Posted by: fixerupper at May 24, 2018 10:36 AM (8XRCm)

Amazon offers a "partners" program in which a website links to Amazon and if a person clicks on the link through that site and then buys something from Amazon, Amazon gives the site a percentage of the sale.

In LI case, the money was helping to keep the site running and not only has Amazon cut them off from the program, but Amazon told them that the money they were holding that LI had earned through it's site links will not be sent to them.

I believe it. I remember reading a few years ago that hispanics had already outnumbered blacks, and they've been 14% or so of the population for a while now.

The wonderful thing about the human brain is its adaptability. If one NEEDS to remember things like phone numbers, then we could. And would. But we don't.


So we're free to fill our heads with things that are more relevant. To us. In whatever way they are.
