So, 2 days until the end of open enrollment, do you really think I have time to write a full ONT? Ha!
So you're going to get a couple of links, a twitter embed or two and no commentary from me (Best. ONT. Ever.). Basically what I can throw together in the 15 minutes before my next appointment.

Well, on-topic (I read the first sentence, at least), as I noted yesterday, I know someone in CA, a classic victim of O-care's destruction of the individual insurance "market"*. He has manipulated his income since the onset of O-care, to qualify for that crap, thanks to the instant 300% premium increases that brought to individual policies. This year, his subsidized premium went up 2,000% (big numbers come from the fact both are actually small numbers - but the change is still worth noting).
Hey - maybe the GOP can run on a platform of repealing O-care! Somebody send an email to the RNC - that should be a sure-fire campaign stance, dontcha think???
* use of the word "market" in connection with most insurance is mostly ironic, or in the case of medical matters, entirely ironic

As for 'building character', I just got reinforced with the same opinion about humanity which the aforementioned backstabbers and bullies had impressed upon me during school.

Some time in the 90s, they made a policy of no longer allowing gay scout masters because boys were being abused and they wanted to protect the boys and they were also losing a lot of money in lawsuits from the victims.
Levi's announced they were cutting off their donations to BSA because of their homophobic and discriminatory policy.
Normal people boycott Levi's and Levi's loses a bunch of business and blames it on Americans not appreciating quality anymore. Levi's moves production overseas to save labor costs.

I remember a pair of Levi's I bought in the early 90's. They fit 'perfectly'. You know that pair of pants that makes every other pair of pants seem like you are wearing a loosely fitted potato sack- that was this pair of jeans.
I realize it might be bizarre to wax rhapsodic about a pair of jeans, but they were a very comfortable pair of jeans.

I have tried a few. Faded Glory seem to assume dudes have a Kardassian sized ass. Wranglers are not bad. I think my go tos are still an old pair of Levis. Hell might even be the same pair. I have restitched the pocket five or six times.
Plus, more modern jeans: I seem to break the belt loops. Always the same one. Cannot quite figure it out. It is not the stitching that breaks, the material pulls out around where the belt loop is anchored.

My Catholic grade school had a Troop. I wouldn't join it because I spent hours every weekday with those assholes, so why would I want to spend my weekends camping with them, too? I joined a Troop at a nearby Episcopal Church. Funniest part was when I was received my Eagle Scout rank. The first row in the Episcopal Church was full of nuns in habits. But not joining my school's Troop was one of my best early life decisions because I do have some great memories, including the memory of my Scoutmaster, Mr. Ira C. Erwin (all his personal gear was labeled 'ICE'; probably get in trouble for that today), a true adult rebel (which is a life lesson in its own right). He hated our local Council, calling them clowns. We never went to our Council's summer camp 45 minutes away. Instead, we went to another Council's summer camp 2 plus hours away.
I remember stopping by to visit him while in college. While there, two Naval aviators also stopped by who were his Scouts before my time. Not many Scout leaders engender such affection (in a good way; getyermindsouttathegutter people!). Thank you Mr. Erwin. You done good.

If you love sitting by a warm fire, and you love KFC, the restaurant chain may have the perfect product for you.
The company is selling firelogs that smell like fried chicken.
The fast food chain released the "KFC 11 herbs and Spices firelog," which is made with 100 percent recycled materials.
According to the site, each firelog burns for up to 3 hours. The site also claims the burning of the firelog may "result in a craving for fried chicken" and "may attract bears or neighbors who are hungry."

I told the local den mom straight out that she (my daughter) couldn't participate in GSA because they had let boys identifying as girls join.
She said their troop wouldn't do that, but I said no. She asked me what was wrong with that anyway. I said, "See, you would do that if the opportunity presented itself."
I was not very popular from that point forward in pick-up line and at school functions after that. The kids always liked me, because I have long hair and a beard and did burnouts leaving the pick-up line, but the liberal soccer moms hated me.

I know it seems weird because we all seem to have some imprinted false memories, but liquor could not be advertised on tv back then. Only beer and wine (Paul Masson: We sell no wine before its time). For booze ads, one had to read the newspapers or a magazine.

Seems there are some products so useful, and/or already so famous, they don't really need advertising, or at least, not much advertising.
Look at Suave's line of hair care products. I've read that one of the reasons they're inexpensive is because they don't really advertise much.

Service brakes work fine, other than a little pedal pulsation, which is probably due to rust spots on the rotors from sitting a long time. Four wheel disc brakes. The parking brake cables were seized, and disconnected from the shoes before I got it. I will free up the cables, take the rear rotors off, and free up the shoes and linkage, and put it all back together.

Yeah, we have that, too.
Talk about hand washing after wrenching, here's a pro tip: use the white gel hand cleaner, like DL or GoJo, work it into your hands, and then add a little bit of washing soda (sodium carbonate, not bicarbonate). It acts like grit in the mostly water-free lanolin-based hand cleaner, and helps scrub dirt out of the ridges in your skin. Then rinse your hands with warm water, and the washing soda helps dissolve the lanolin, and turn it into actual soap. Your hands wind up real clean, and not slimy or sticky. Washing soda is a mild base, and does not sting or burn, if used sparingly in this fashion.

...well, I do. For the price of one lap-dance. Ten bucks to have a woman help me up the stairs and make magic all over Your Friendly Neighborhood Slapweasel.
Here's the thing: She's a 'Stripper With a Heart of Gold' and doesn't do blow-jobs.
WTF, right?
I could have seen this in many ways... "She's a stripper that likes my personality and she's Not That Kind of Girl."
..."She hates blow-jobs."
..."She could be the Mother of my Children and perhaps she's right."

Yes. Quite a few of his books, actually. While his Barchester Chronicles series, about a church vicarage, are good, IMHO, the best of the lot is his 'The Pallisers' series of novels. (The books were made into a very good BBC production, 1974-75, as seen here on PBS titled, aptly, 'The Pallisers', with the scrumptious Susan Hampshire; that show is also known for the introduction of Jeremy Irons.) By today's standards, the books are a bore due to the long-drawn out plots. But if you enjoy books satirizing the foibles of the English nobility and clergy, they are a fun read.
I will say this about Trollope the writer: He worked for the post office. He'd get up at five every morning to write until time to go to work around 7. By keeping to such a schedule, he was able to crank out quite a few books. If Trollope had the internet back in his day, along with the ONT, he would never have written one sentence of one paragraph of one page of one chapter of one book.

sure it would seem like the great thing to do when you are in college, with your dads credit card, blowing a wad of his money at the club. then it is really cool when she hits the college parties with you and brings her friends. but then when you take your out for lunch, in the daylight, with clothes and no make up, well.

Because it has the stench of Trump on it, all our city and State leaders could do was say "OrangeManBad" and find other things to do instead of meeting with the White House on this matter.
To it's credit, local talk radio is flame spraying our Democratic leadership for punishing the cities poorest in their efforts to portray Trump as evil.
I got to listen to over an hour of callers yesterday while coming back from the VA, and not a single caller, many identifying as black, or inner city residents, was happy with the Democratic leadership in the city and State.

Not necessarily.
In the Mid-term, the incumbent Republican Governor enjoyed voter support in the city that was out of alignment with the Dem/Rep ratio of voters in the city.
When given an opportunity to pull the lever for the "I'll give you free stuff" Democratic Socialist candidate, a not small number of city residents chose to support the Republican.
