I read something briefly, probably here. This is their last year because the permit hoops are becoming onerous. You know. The reason anti-first-amendment folks don't bother.
One side obeying the law and the other side getting away with ignoring it can only go on for so long.

A quick update on the medical issues:
1) The bone and CAT scans were clean, the cancer is confined to the prostate.
2) I can put of treatment until later in the year, allowing me to finish out my Powerlifting career in October at Raw Natls.
3) Still investigating whether to go with surgery or radiation when the time comes, prognosis is pretty much the same with either choice.
4) THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS...THE "HORDE" IS IN GOOD WITH THE LORD!

Bikers coming in from across the country traditionally assemble in parking lots around the Pentagon, where Rolling Thunder would sell products such as pins, patches, and flags to raise additional money.
A particular point of contention, according to Muller, was a growing lack of cooperation with security forces at the Pentagon who he accused of diverting the bikers and not allowing them to enter the parking lots, which also prevented participants from buying Rolling Thunder products.
Department of Defense spokeswoman Susan L. Gough has denied those charges, saying the DoD is focused on supporting Rolling Thunder's right to protest while at the same time ensuring the safety and security of both the bikers and the Pentagon complex itself.

Federal judge partially blocks Trump's $1 billion border wall plan http://hill.cm/3Y0Zg8f
California U.S. District Court Judge Haywood Gilliam, who was appointed by former President Obama, issued the order, which does not fully halt construction, but would limit additional border fencing to specific areas. It would also block the transfer of about $1 billion in Pentagon funds from various projects to pay for the construction of a wall.

Didn't Reagan say we are always one election away from disaster?
The very existence of the Deep State is inimical to conservative concepts because it decreases their well deserved unaccountable power and puts them at risk. They have no problem with our pursuing actions that put US at risk since we are just a source of funding, laundered through Congress with only a modest skim for the graft.
Your fellow residents voted (and voted and recounted) for the current insanity going on in Nazi Pelosi's House of Clowns and demonstrated that the Deep State could rest easy, because eventually a "progressive" Administration WILL be voted in and it will be subject to NONE of the delay, obfuscation, and illegal judicial rulings that have tied Trump's hands for years now.
Best part is that our stalwart "conservative" GOP Establishment will still be cheering them on.

Obviously things that are plainly stated in the Constitution don't mean a fucking thing to these black robed tyrants who just make shit up on the fly. It would help if we had a Chief Justice that seemed to care less about DJT associating judges with who appointed them than the integrity of the rulings those dolts issue. Then again, that's the cocksucker who appointed all the FISA judges so maybe an early unplanned retirement is in his future.

Yep...when we were cleaning out my grandma's house my aunt was tossing a ratty old hamper into a dumpster when she saw a envelope taped to the bottom. It had five $100 bills in it. After that we were all very careful to check everything (and did find more hidden money), but this was Day 2 and we always wonder if we threw away a bunch of cash. Well, there was the treasure trove of thirty-three pairs of scissors as a consolation.

Those two have always been linked in my view. Both are most responsible for shackling Sarah Palin during the McCain run, and would have to be considered to have intentionally lost that race by doing so.
I don't see them as human though, so I'm not sure how "dating" and marriage fit into the picture. I can't imagine either of them have anything like a human morality that would prevent them from rutting with whatever comes along anyway.

Most if not all of the hardcore group is already gone. The steps the plotters took to isolate the small group from oversight is ultimately part of their undoing.
They ran the operation from HQ, a clear departure from normal procedure, so they could contain knowledge of what they were doing. Unfortunately for them, it also made it clear who was part of the coup.

1800's. It was built by the local banker and the town story was he had
money hidden some where in the house when he died. As a Teen (and
younger) I looked everywhere, especially in the old attic, and in the
basement behind the stone foundation. Needless to say never found
nothing. Now when I drive by the house I still wonder what might have
been hidden. Maybe the present owners did find it??

Well, if there was a "story" that he had money in the house, that means it was known when he was alive, right? Because he didn't tell anyone after he died.
So if it was known, someone took it. But never admitted they took it.

I'm old school. I remember Dick "Richard" Gephardt going on teevee, during the debate over authorizing Bush Sr.'s war in Iraq, complaining that they just didn't have the funds, and needed a tax increase to pay for it.
Fast forward two years later, and there's the same Dickhead Gethard on the Sunday morning teevee shows, saying Bush betrayed the country by raising taxes.

It sounds like something that could be fixed, but I think it's more the organizers, rather than the city, that needs to work the problem. D.C. isn't giving them a hard time getting a permit for the actual "parade." They just need to rally elsewhere and then enter the city in formation at the prescribed time.

To my mind , that's what the R's issue was with Palin. She was honest, and ethical. She hadn't "played the game" and let Rs slide when she was in an administrative position (don't remember what it was, something to do with oil industry oversight or such) and it had already cost her that position. She was *clean* and that meant no one owed her any favors any more than she owed others and so she had no currency in the uniparty establishment (which makes McCain choosing her so puzzling. She was essentially the anti-him).
Without Trump's "FU money" and no political collateral, it was easy to put financial pressure on her. I know some called her a quitter but, given that all her previous actions had shown her priority to be the Alaskan people (a public servant who considered themselves exactly that, amazing!) resigning in order to not cost them money is exactly in line with her character.

In the storage shed next to my hubby's wetsuit.
Yes, we own one! Hubby used to do spearfishing before his dad sold the summer home.

Is that for real? Jeebus.
There was a big effort to remove all the trash (and the odd corpse or two) that has been accumulating on Everest:
"Those who reach 8,000 meters on either side will find a wasteland, literally. Human feces do not degrade at this altitude; they merely blow away or get stuck in the rocks. A few Western teams are starting to use blue bags to bring down solid waste, similar to a practice implemented recently on Alaska’s Denali."

The Outside article says that something like 300 people are licensed to climb Everest this season and there are about 300 people in that picture.
That's got to be some high altitude assault practice or publicity stunt.

I'm not sure that's true. This form of extreme behavior always carries a risk of death, and I think lots of people get off on that.
At this point I just can't care. Spoil the highest place on Earth, turn it into a vast waste dump. So be it.
Eventually when SMOD (or whatever the form the Destructor takes) destroys all we know (including us), the Earth (or whatever other ball of matter it becomes) will reform, and things like Mt. Everest will not be a thing. Nobody will care. There may not be any living beings left to care. God may have just decided "You know what? This sentient being thing was a mistake, I'll just make the next universe a light show with explosions and stuff."

When the father of a friend died, we went through his belongings. I found a cardboard box in an abandoned upstairs bedroom. Emptied out all the trash when a coin slid out from under a bottom flap. It was a one cent piece from New Jersey. A very rare coin, and it was in the best condition of any known at the time.
He had stacks of stock certificates from 'penny' stocks. Most to the companies were defunct, but the certificates had become collector items--worth much money.
My friend knew that his father put money into numerous bank accounts. So, he took his father's death certificate and drove from Vermont to Arizona (his father's vacation site), stopping at all the banks along the way. Sure enough, there were numerous accounts. Picked up several thousand dollars.

All kidding aside, if 17 people died this year, probably much more than half of them were Sherpas, carrying hundreds of pounds of equipment for the rich douche-bags who seem to be unaware their very lives are walking metaphors of the rich climbing on the backs of the poor.

I saw a documentary whose point was to heap plaudits on a group of wheelchair-bound tourists for achieving their dream of reaching the base camp in Nepal. It was beyond parody.
These dumb toads had Nepali porters literally carrying them up the steep inclines on their backs.
Fat immobile rich people being carried up the mountain by some impoverished scrawny brown people was portrayed as a wonderful triumph of the tourists over adversity and shit. It was ludicrous.

Get a tennis ball and roll it under your foot while your sitting down. Start gentle, then increase pressure. Also, sometimes a frozen bottle of water, rolled under your foot helps too.
