Some ONTs Are Created More Equal Than Others

As Easy As ABC

These Kids Are Driving Me Crazy!

5-year-old Utah boy is stopped driving his parents’ car on I-15. He wanted to go buy a Lamborghini. So what was he going to do with the car he was driving after he bought the Lambo?

13-Year-Old Missing After Putting Stolen License Plates On Family's Minivan The article doesn't say why he was running away, but it's probably because his parents named him Kadin.

JUDGE RULES THAT STRIP CLUBS MUST GET SHARE OF FEDERAL LOANS It's a far left judge. I wonder if his ruling would be the same if the businesses in question were gun stores and not strip clubs?

Mid Century Modern

Walt Disney's Palm Springs 'Technicolor Dream House' sells for $1m

I've always loved mid-century modern houses. My current house is a MCMish design, although our décor is not. In my perfect world, the cities would be art deco and the suburbs MCM. I'm not sure why, maybe it's just because 60s America seems like a golden time (minus the leftist rot which was just taking root). I know that it wasn't, no age truly is, but it is mythologized in my mind that way. I mean, who wouldn't want to live in Ronald Reagan's California? This is a lovely house, and frankly, I think the owner got a steal at $1 mil. (Obligatory caveat about modern day Commiefornia)

Sauce For The Goose

Missouri residents who snitched on lockdown rule-breakers fear retaliation after names are made public

I'm worried. Oh, we haven't reached Days of Rage level social disruption yet, but I fear we've crested the hill and can now see it from where we are. In the past week two everyday normal conservatives that I know have been forced off Twitter by determined doxing attacks. One was a normal suburban lady who happened to say that she didn't like Land O' Lakes decision to take the Indian off of their packaging and would be buying another brand of butter from now on. This simple statement so incensed the rabid lefties that they attacked her en masse, hounded and doxed her right off the platform. I'm not sure what the other guy said but he posted that his boss was getting calls demanding he be fired (I think he said something about the Karens) and he was deleting his account. I'm glad these people are getting a taste of their own medicine (actually, from what I can tell they haven't, yet, but they are worried that they will), but I don't see this ending well for the country.

Speaking Of Land O’Lakes

My Native American father drew the Land O’Lakes maiden. She was never a stereotype.

Interesting that the author of the piece, who admitted that he has protested in the past against the Washington Redskins' name, is now upset when those chickens came home to roost. I guess it really does depend on whose ox is being gored, doesn't it?

Coincidence? I Think Not!

47 By contrast, Williams was not fired by The Post when the allegations were revealed in 1991. Fifty female employees met with then-Executive Editor Leonard Downie Jr. to object to the newspaper's lack of transparency surrounding what disciplinary measures it had taken. Yet Williams was eventually hired by NPR.
'He was like a serial shocker'

McKeon, who worked with Williams in the late 1980s, warned him several times during her tenure to "stop talking to these young girls like that" and that he'd "have a problem" if he continued. After one art director stood up from her chair, McKeon said she remembers Williams saying, "Now there's a chair I'd like to sniff."

McKeon said she still thinks about Williams's lewd behavior, and regrets not doing more to stop him

I actually remember something similar happening when I played basketball. In the 8th grade. When things get intense, sometimes autopilot just takes over.

Okay, that was damn funny -- but brings back a horrible memory.

When I was about 13 on a boys basketball team, I had this horrible habit after grabbing an OFFENSIVE rebound of doing a couple or three full-body head-fakes first before putting the ball up in the hoop.

So, one week at the end of every practice my coach had me constantly grabbing dozens of rebounds and immediately shooting -- until I became unconsciously competent at it.

Well, you guessed it. Our next game, the first DEFENSIVE rebound I got went immediately up and in. All the kids on the other team started pointing and laughing ... and I did indeed break down in tears. Mortifying, and obviously still bothers me to this day.

Democratic political consultant James Carville said President Donald Trump is getting fleeced by members of his own campaign who know he's going to lose reelection but won't tell him for one simple reason: they're trying to make money off the campaign.

"It don't matter if the Dow is 35,000, he's not going to win," Carville said on MSNBC on Wednesday. "He wasn't going to win when unemployment was 3.5 percent, he's certainly not going to win now."

Carville dismissed Trump's top campaign aides as a "pack of grifters."

89 I lived through the seventies. The clothes in that h i s jeans ad aren't even close to being as horrible as some of the fashions I saw, and yes, even wore. Those shirts are nice compared to some of the polyester shirts in the most hideous, bright prints you can imagine. Of course guys had their shirts unbuttoned halfway to their belly buttons.
And, oh, there were the platform shoes that were a safety hazard. Those jeans in the pictures are at least "flares", not the all out bell bottoms.

the hs worked with the tribe to make sure the mascot was something they agreed with. they signed off in every way and even used it some.

then some wine scrunts out of nowhere decided it was offensive and had to be changed.

"A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland. A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe."

the 70s are, without exception, the most hideous decade of all time. Styles, music*, clothes, color choices, shag carpeting, popcorn ceilings, it was just godawful. Other decades can boast of some unfortunate choices in fashion but the 70s took everything and got it all hideously wrong. And I am not really sure why. It all just happened at once.

Posted by: Aetius451AD at May 07, 2020 10:21 PM (A5zUN)

Well, although I am only 29, I recall that the early '70's were all about the "natural" look. Earth shoes, earth tones, peasant dresses, awful ponchos. The funny thing is that so many of the clothes were polyester that didn't breathe at all. Real natural, those plastic clothes. But the fashionable colors were muted "harvest gold" and avocado green. I also recall that dusty plum was kinda big.

I think the glam fashions of the mid-70's - the sequined tops that we wore to Kiss and Bowie concerts - were a reaction against all that drabness, as was the later disco craze and, in a very different way, punk. Nobody wanted to look like Carole King any more.

My parents liked Green. I remember the Avocado fridge, the avocado range, the avocado dishwasher, the shaggy green carpet. I liked the carpet because you only had to shuffle your feet a little bit with tennies on and you could shock the fire out of anyone, we'd to it to each other all the time. Then my dad got mad when he finally noticed that whenever we started to shuffle our feet the dog, usually quite fierce, would whimper and run out of the room.

I've read that if you worked at Disneyland in the late 1950s or early 1960s, it wasn't hard to get to meet Walt himself. He would literally walk around throughout the day and make sure everything was up to his standards. And he wasn't shy about going right up to people working there and telling them what needed improvement.

I admit I would have been starstruck.

Walt: "Hey, you need to--"
Me: "OMG!! You're Walt Disney!"

224 Checking in from a blue state. Am I the only one losing hope?Yeah, I guess I deserve it for living in a blue state. But I vote GOP every election, so I don't take any blame for Murphy.This isn't even a money thing. I just want to work. I work for myself and I like to use my talents. I like to support other small businesses and I fear for them too.Relocating isn't really an option for me.Trump is right to let the blue state guvs rise or fall on their own. However, I'm worried the Prez has shifted focus to the states that are reopening and let the blue states fend for themselves.Again, he's not wrong. But I don't deserve and indefinite lockdown and no one does.
Friends are telling me NY and NJ will reopen soon because they "have to." But who can force Murphy or Cuomo to do anything? No one.It's easy to say let the blue states die but if they go under, it *will* impact the rest of the country economically which doesn't help anyone. And that has nothing to do with bailouts.
We have 2x the amount of people unemployed in the country that was unemployed during the "Great Recession." I think many people have already forgotten that time but I remember it like it was yesterday.This is not sustainable and the economic impact is not going to stop at the borders of blue states.And I don't know how safe red states are either when judges are jailing single moms and Meal Team Six is sent to close down a bar.I don't really see a reason to go back to work even if and when we're allowed to. What's the point of running a business when *one* politician can decide to shut it all down?

- Reduced elevator capacity (unenforceable)
- No bulk or open snacks or food in our once well-stocked break rooms (including coffee - I don't know how they're going to make that work)
- Masks mandatory in "common areas" - including our cube farms
- No meetings in-person unless an emergency
- Strict "social distancing" - meaning that they estimate that 50%-65% of the workforce will remain work-from-home to spread out the floor plan

And the kicker? They plan on doing this for 6-12 *months.*

Very well said. The Left has created hundreds of imaginary "existential threats" throughout my lifetime -- but this is an ACTUAL one that they've manufactured.

I'm extremely disappointed in President Trump (not that I won't crawl over broken glass to support and vote for him) and AG Barr right now. I have a RINO Squish governor in AZ .... but didn't expect any courage from him anyway.
This is a horrible precedent that will be repeated unless some serious (and I hope not bloody) pushback occurs ASAP. Good luck to you an all patriots.

I think the masks increase the volume of your tidal breath and you go out from excess co2? (Trouble clearing your lungs of "used air".) 'Cause for me, this is an issue I've noticed. Breath deeper than usual, or ditch the mask.

It's sad, I can't give you any hope for New Jersey, other than to hope you can get out of there somehow. But here in Texas, things feel better than they have in months. Yes, Meal Team Six and Big Bwana BOW DOWN TO ME! Judge Moye are outrages, but he got slapped down hard today, and the Ector County Sheriff's Dep't is facing constant humiliation and contempt for how they acted. It's like the dam broke today, suddenly everyone is sick of all of this shit. And with the Texas Supreme Court ruling, today all of the teeth got pulled out of any enforcement of those restrictions, and although no one's saying it officially, everyone knows that compliance is all strictly voluntary now. It's a great feeling, and roads here were all crowded today as everyone is heading back out!

And it's gonna be hard for other parts of the country to stay locked down when there's video every day of things being wide open here, and nothing bad happening at all.

There is a bar in Milwaukee that used to have that centerfold picture of Reynolds in the Ladies Room with a big buzzer over his crotch. Of course, the ladies all pushed the buzzer - which would go off loudly throughout the bar.

Yeah, I've been raising this point to the LIVs I know for a while - you just destroyed businesses that took years in the making, and you really think those same small business people are going to go right out and try it again when you will make the same dumb decisions as soon as the next Chinese virus comes to the US?

Living in a blue state is depressing - the best people you meet are generally the most apathetic. And the dedicated ones are dedicated to pretty horrible things which you'll get to find out in detail once you get to know them in detail.

I still remember one group of swell co-workers who got into abortion and how great it was for women to have a choice but....then ended up all agreeing if, ahem, *certain* people won't take advantage of the *right* choice well...the government should be making it for them....

I bought my parents' house after they passed away. This house was built around 1970. It still had an avocado stove. Then there was the family room with all 4 walls enrobed in dark brown fake wood paneling. The carpeting wasn't orange, but it was at least twenty years old. People in their mid 90's don't do much redecorating.

344 Music isn't as monolithic in 2010/2020 as it was in the 60s/70s. So it is harder to find shared experiences because everyone is listening to their own thing.

The only thing better the mid-century modern house architecture is mid-century modern furniture - especially the mid 50s before everything went full mod.

If I were rich, I would furnish my entire house with Kipp Stewart/Steard MacDougal pieces from Drexel's "Declaration" series. Maybe toss in some nice Lane stuff (especially the dovetailed veneers) and then piecemeal for the rest.

You'd think it is not unlike watching TV.

Killing some time here here while I wait for a script to run and erase my entire Facebook history.

I made the decision to cancel all my social media accounts and ended all remaining friendships I had with lefties, including a 13 year old friendship with one girl because she just went full retard. I kept calling the virus Chinese and she kept getting offended, not at what China did to us, but at the very notion of daring to call a virus Chinese in origin. Fuck right off. Done.

This is the biggest change I've made in my life in years, and while I feel a burden lifted for longer polluting my brain with social media I also feel a bit depressed and alone.

Ha! I laugh because our family house had all that 50's furniture until the 70's - when we kids finally convinced our parents to "update" to groovy avocado green and shag carpet. And they got rid of the formica table and chairs in the kitchen and got a wooden "country-style" table with the seat pads that tied to the chair.

411 Another part too is that generally in your late teens/early 20s you start to have a lot of "first" experiences that stay with you forever.

So that song that captured your mood after your first big break up is going to stick with you in a way that nothing later will.

Obviously this is going to create generational differences in what people keep coming back to. I think you can see a lot of this with Gen X vs the Boomers....and the Millenials will be the same way.

Keep in mind, most Facebook executives don't allow their kids to use Facebook. And around half of them have people they hire for the purpose of running their Facebook pages, and rarely even use it themselves (at least not directly).

If the people who run the thing don't let their kids use it and many don't use it themselves, then that's a *big* indicator to push it away.

Out of all the social media accounts. everything was easy to delete and quit except Facebook, where I wanted to keep a vanilla account that just serves as a glorified login so my cousins in italy can continue to keep in touch via Messenger and I can use it for work.

Because Facebook, fucking asshat fuckheads that they are, force you to use a personal profile to manage any business account or ads you have for your job. Your personal info and life gets crossed over with your job. The fuck is this shit?

I tried to delete my old account and create a new one only to use for business and FB disabled it, so I'm doing the next best thing by manually removing ALL history in my old account and unfriending everyone except my italian relatives, plus maxing out all privacy settings for all the shit that does.

I've always loved mid-century modern houses.

My mother's parents' house, built in the late 40s, was modern and set in a wonderful grove of white pine trees alongside the St. Croix River in Minnesota, just east of the Twin Cities. I loved hearing the wind there and both the house and the yard were beautiful.

As it happened, it was listed on the market back in 2007, when Mom's family was holding an all cousins reunion just up the road for members of her generation. We did not take the opportunity to go see it, and that probably was a good thing.

I made the mistake in 2017 of visiting the yard of the house in which I lived from ages 5 to 8, over 60 years earlier. That was a big mistake, as the huge yard which I had so many memories of fun play adventures back in the day was now a fenced in dog run and there was dog shit everywhere. Now that I reconsider it, that is a perfect metaphor for the relative states of this country, too.

Poor little boy. So picked on!!!!
Posted by: Donna&&&&&&V at May

yeah, read your own issues into what I write.

I am not complaining about anything and I am certainly not suggesting I am being picked upon.

I am merely suggesting that there is a comment where the back and forth with jewells started and that comment was made by her.

If I am wrong show me.

If it makes it easier for you the comments are presented in the order they were written.

I was teasing WDS and jewells decided to get involved.

The interesting question is why, now, when it is over, are you trying to get involved?

496 I made the mistake in 2017 of visiting the yard of the house in which I lived from ages 5 to 8, over 60 years earlier. That was a big mistake, as the huge yard which I had so many memories of fun play adventures back in the day was now a fenced in dog run and there was dog shit everywhere. Now that I reconsider it, that is a perfect metaphor for the relative states of this country, too.

About this time last year, I took a road trip with my parents to figure out where they wanted to retire. We drove through a place in NC where they used to live (not because they were considering living there again, but for nostalgia). We drove by their house and some of their neighbors' places.

In their house, there had been some changes, including apparently that the new owners cut down some elaborate trees and shrubs and erected a garage and an addition onto the house. My mom literally gasped and shouted, "They've ruined it! The vandals!"

516 Well, I'm off to read.

I know this isn't the book thread, but I'm engrossed in "Paul Revere's Ride" by David Hackett Fischer. I knew very little about the skirmishes at Lexington and Concord that kicked off the Revolution, but those fights were astounding. Revere wasn't the only "midnight rider" who alerted the Yankees that the redcoats were coming, they had an amazing system built up so there were men riding all over eastern Mass, "alarming" the towns by going to the minister's or some other prominent citizen's house to awake them, and they would then ring the bells or fire shots to awake everyone up. The distances were small by today's standards, but in the 18th century, it took all day to ride 30 miles in New England.

Imagine it - the residents of Massachusetts, even the Harvard people, wanted to fight because taxes were too high and the English wanted to take their mutations. If they could see what happened to New England...

547 Well, I got a bunch more weed whacking done today, and then I fired up the riding mower, which necessitated wheeling a battery and jumper cables out to the barn, but it ran fine, and I mowed a big patch of grass on the east side of the place which had grown enough to need it. Most of the place, the grass has not yet begun to grow.

Put the battery charger on the mower, and left it overnight. I will see if the battery recovers.

And I finished sorting through my coffee can of little machine screws. Did you know that 4-36 and 8-36 machine screws exist? I didn't know that, but they do, and I found some. Anyway, I now have to rig up some sort of cabinet to store them all in, so i can find what I need when I need it. Right now, they are all in cottage cheese tubs or spaghetti sauce jars.

Spending the third night in a row camped out on our living room floor with our Portuguese Water Dog, who had surgery to remove a lymph node from one of her back legs on Tuesday. The medicos and the missus wanted to put her in the cone of shame in order to keep her from worrying the wound, but I had been keeping her company during daylight hours, during which time she left it aline and was mellow. The cone gets her agitated so I said that I'd keep her company overnight. She's settled down at last and has started snoring here next to me. She is one goofy trip when she awakens in the AM and makes me laugh.

566 I just remembered something, with all this talk about Winnie the Pooh.

When I was a kid I hated hearing English accents. Not sure why, but it set my teeth on edge. Christopher Robin was one of the worst. Again, no idea, why, except I have often wondered if I had some Aspergery thing going on. Because I had other twitchy issues going on as well, like cheese and butter nauseated me. Thankfully I am now a fan of both.

Good thing I am only moderately misanthropic in my middle years, instead of really messed up. Can't imagine a life without cheese and butter.

You can go on with trying to be part of a fun group, or you can claim it it is pointless and just keep trying to piss people off because you justify your opinion that you are a loner fighting against odds.

Can we all agree that teasing in a medium with no verbal inflections nor facial cues is notoriously easy to misconstrue?

Can we all agree that teasing in a medium with no verbal inflections nor facial cues and done in the vocabulary pattern of a troll is even more horrifically notoriously easy to misconstrue?

Can we agree that jumping up to defend one's friend from trolls is part of the package of friendship?

Now we might not agree, but I am proposing that recognizing the difficulty of internet teasing and recognizing the nature of friends to stick up for each other, a better response to jewels might have been "-ette, I was teasing ... WDS and I are cool ..."

I spent a number of evenings back in the winter months consolidating and organizing an eclectic assortment of nails that had wound up in our possession from four different houses, including our own, over the last decade. Now they're all in labeled jars, and the jars themselves are in uniformly sized and labeled boxes, all on one shelf instead of being strewn throughout the basement. I probably won't have to buy nails ever again for as long as I live, there are that many and in numerous varieties.

here is the thing.

the question of to use sarc tags or not to use sarc tags has been debated since the beginning of time .

some have decided to use sarc tags. others have decided that good faith should be assumed so sarc tags should not be used, soe even believing tha using them is somewhat insulting to the horde who should have the ability to figure out the writers intent.

I have never used sarc tags except in the rarest of events where there was a funny comment I wanted to make to a horde member that might be offended. Other than that no sarc tags.

I think as big an issue is that there are many members of the horde that have gotten too chummy and kind of think of themselves as horde royalty and get very pissed when they or theirs gets some criticism.

The missus is going to see the Gson and Gdaughter tomorrow and bringing them new G-ma made jammie bottoms. Apparently they both have steadfastly refused to wear pants for several weeks now.

She asked me if I wanted to go, but I declined, as rabid anti-Trumpian and idiot DiL insists that we would wear masks and lately she has been exhibiting markedly Karen-ish behavior in her FB postings. I don't need to be face to face with that kind of aggravation, so I'll call and Facetime with them during her visit.

I have decided that neither grandchild will have a memory of me wearing any one of those stupid face masks.

Do like our Dads & Grandads did, just with a modern spin.

Go to a Pharmacy Supply Outlet, and buy a couple~three dozen RX plastic bottles. They'll likely be brown in color, of course.

Then get a length of 2"x2" wood. Eighteen to Twenty Four inches, ought to do it.

Screw the lids of those containers, evenly spaced all along all four sides of that wood.

Drill 1/4" holes, one inch deep, dead-center on each end of that length of wood

Mount between brackets, with 1/4" rods secured and instated into those holes.

Mount the RX bottles onto those caps. Clear-tape ONE of the fasteners contained within, to the exterior of the bottle, so you can easily see and note which bottle holds which fastener.

Our Dads n' Gramps did it with cleaned out baby food jars.

Worked for them, and the new version will work for us. I've got mine about half-completed, out in the garage. And I'm looking VERY forward to getting rid of a few dozen rusting old coffee cans as containers of this, that or the other.

638 13-Year-Old Missing After Putting Stolen License Plates On Family's Minivan The article doesn't say why he was running away, but it's probably because his parents named him Kadin.

Reminds me of the time we asked dad to leave the keys in the car so we could hear the radio. Brother proceeded to drive around the parking lot and re-parked. Then it was my turn. Drove around the lot, came back and the space was taken. Oops.

644 I spent a number of evenings back in the winter months consolidating and organizing an eclectic assortment of nails that had wound up in our possession from four different houses, including our own, over the last decade. Now they're all in labeled jars, and the jars themselves are in uniformly sized and labeled boxes, all on one shelf instead of being strewn throughout the basement. I probably won't have to buy nails ever again for as long as I live, there are that many and in numerous varieties.
Posted by: Krebs v Carnot: Epic Battle of the Cycling Stars (TM) at May 07, 2020 11:37 PM (pNxlR)

My biggest problem is that I am running out shelf space on which to put all those little jars and boxes.

And I have like a half-pint of 8-32 screws. That's a lot of screws, but they have to be sorted into round head, flat head, slot, phillips, allen, hex, etc. That could easily occupy one bin box or tray box.

Q: In closing, this was a big decision in the Flynn case, to-- to say the least. When history looks back on this decision, how do you think it will be written? What will it say about your decision making?

A: Well, history is written by the winner. So it largely depends on who's writing the history. But I think a fair history would say that it was a good decision because it upheld the rule of law. It helped, it upheld the standards of the Department of Justice, and it undid what was an injustice.

Uh-huh.

OK, probably coincidence, but in an earlier post I mentioned 3 songs he played a lot.

One was Mr Magic by Grover Washington, Jr.

It was playing in another window.

After it was over, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, by Traffic, came on, the long version. He probably played that song a hundred times.

And then the next song, Allman Brothers, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed. I vividly remember this song playing on his stereo.

Seriously, it's like he's the DJ tonight.

674 Walt's house was listed at $1million, but the "record" sales price won't be released until closing on 5/14. It sounded as if there was a major bidding war. Also, the Daily Mail should get simple facts like ages right. Lillian was about a year older than Walt, not 24 years younger. She lived to be 98, outliving her younger daughter.

675 others have decided that good faith should be assumed so sarc tags should not be used, soe even believing tha using them is somewhat insulting to the horde who should have the ability to figure out the writers intent.

I am not one of those people, as I frequently use old fashion : -)) and ;-) all the time to try and re-enforce the text with missing facial cues.

I also note that many a times people have misunderstood each other and they have tried to talk each other down. Apologies and clearing up of misconceptions also happen. Asking for more details happens. Agreeing to disagree happens.

What I saw happen tonight, was you using a troll vocabulary with WDS, jewels misunderstanding, and you continued to use the troll vocabulary with jewels by way of an explanation.

Now recognizing that jewels misunderstood the communication, repeating the misunderstood pattern - imo - is not the best way to continue. That's why I am suggesting breaking the pattern and responding with a very literal explanation "-ette, I was teasing ... WDS and I are cool ..." would have been a better way to diffuse the situation.

Continuing as you did may lead people to believe you had no desire to diffuse the situation, but rather - in the vernacular - just be a shit stirrer.

On the other hand, not being accepted as acting in good faith is particularly hurtful. I have experienced it on Flopping Aces, for one, and I don't comment there any more.

I couldn't talk anybody into signing on to be the Treasurer ...

Recall Petitions must be submitted by Committee of 2.

Plus: a recall petition that did have 2 signatories was submitted. It's on the SOS page. Not my wording about 1st amendment.

I have 2 ideas though. I might not need a 2nd. signatory for ballot initiatives.

1: The STEADY-ON act.
AZ will create tax exempt savings accounts in the manner of IRAs: Short Term Emergency Account Directed by You.

Read somewhere that US is only 1 of the 1st world nations that taxes saving account interest.

2. The Take Point Act.
AZ will create a Pandemic response plan where 1 hospital will be designated the Point based on surgical specialties and location of AZ Patient Zero - 10. IF and ONLY IF they get overrun will other hospitals get involved.

People dying from missed heart surgeries and missed cancer treatments for the damn flu is insane and should not happen again.

I hope Gov. Whitless doesn't hear about that. Most of our cases are in the Detroit area, and I'm fed up with the rest of the state being held hostage.

Went to the vet to pick up monthly heartworm dose yesterday. The place was packed, I mean nuts, because other vets have a list of procedures that they won't do, because they aren't "essential". The woman at the desk told me that some veterinary practices have decided that euthanizing sick animals isn't essential. The vets who aren't gullible sheep are having to pick up the slack.

Idea number 2 I like a lot. Allows for preparedness planning for state .gov response to be focused on the area with the problem. Would probably work for multiple scenarios, with the exclusion of superflu like "The Stand" or a zombie virus.

Illinois is in stage 2 of 5, and divided into sections to provide the illusion that the situation is being dealt with in a sensible manner. But stage 4 bans anything that requires 50 or more people at once, and stage 5 doesn't kick in until covid is completely gone, or there's a vaccine, or there's a cure (undefined level of success in treatment).

The commie govs have no intention of reaching the open stage. Ever. Because this isn't about health, it's about imposing their green new deal.

But, we will both know family and cooking and loyalty and hard work.

And fishing. Badly.

Nissan (formerly "Datsun") went about 99% broke in the '90s, and was bought out by the French. (Renault?)

So, the nameplate on your truck is more properly pronounced: "Frohnt-eeh-yay".

820 My 20 year old Dodge Dakota finally went tits up last year and I replaced it with a 2003 Toyota Tundra. It had 1 issue that I had to get fixed (frame rusting out behind the rear wheels. I got some local guys to weld in new steel and it's better than new. It's a known issue with these trucks, when I showed up at the welding shop the guy greeted me with "Another one of these, huh?"), and I have to say, I love it. It's a great truck. V8, tons of power, 4X4 if I need it, and it cruises smooth and quite at 80 on the highway. Little turns 16 this year and I've told him it's going to be his vehicle, but some days I almost want to give him my BMW instead.

Nissan remains pretty much damn near as good as they've ever been.

Notwithstanding the Titan's silly-assed mounting of the starter inside the flywheel's bell housing.

But mostly, I'm just funnin' with you, there.

Their light trucks are still a world standard. The Titan, in my view, is a bookcase of answers to a library of un-asked questions.

Where the "French" influence shines though, is in some of the goofy design features seen in 'em over the years.

Recall a decade old Maxima, with the longitudinal "skylight" in the roof. Or the goofy-assed "French curve" which still adorns the Armada SUV's rear door header and back-quarter glass.

Or the Beluga Whale nose on the Infiniti QX-80, the Armada's "luxury" sibling.

Odd swoops, curves, quirks and sweeps, are the hallmark of French automotive design. Citroen being the most notable, thus.

Your Frontier ain't gonna letcha down though.

It's in the worldwide competition market against the venerable Toyota "Taco" Tacoma.

Beloved of UN types and Terrorists, everywhere!

If you have a Kroger's store in your area, try the house brand Kroger's "Mayo".

Not as smooth as Dukes, but more zing than any of the Hellman's/Blue Ribbon national majors.

Kind of splits the difference, with the blessing of being a real Mayonnaise, and not some misbegotten chemical offspring of a Godzilla's egg yolk crossed with rancid battery acid.

What, no seeded rye or pumpernickel?

Everybody's a H8er.

Homemade egg salad and a couple of slices of crispy bacon on lightly toasted pumpernickel, lettuce optional. Not crispy, crunchy toasted, just toasted enough so the egg salad has a good solid platform. No mayo or that other stuff required. A shmear of mustard is okay, though.

BTW, there are no 'can of worms' on the ONT, only 'the mayo/white bread vs miracle whip/whole wheat wars have begun'.

The plastic, shiny new face gives away the work she's had done, too. It looks like she's wearing a cheap Halloween mask now, versus an old witch's Halloween mask.

I think the work she's had done indicates she isn't giving up power any time soon.

Commie Bernie will never get the nod should Gropin' Joe be taken out of contention for the top spot on the ticket when their convention rolls around. The superdelegates will see to that. If Sundowner Joe is not the nominee, the Dems will not go with any of the (no)bodies who ran in the primaries and have all the excitement and energy of paint drying. They'll want someone who didn't run in the primaries and who has a name. For now, my money is on Gov. Fredo the Elder (Dumb-NY). Maybe with a female like Gov. Whitless (Dumb-MI) in the VP slot.

980 Thomas Sowell had one of the most succinct statements about leftism/socialism.

"Replacing what works, with what sounds good."

If you want to 'splain this to the young idealistic types there are any number of real world examples. Show them the myriad nice cars available. Then show them the Trabant.

Two countries, East and West Germany. East Germany had a wall - to keep people in; a fact conveniently left out when the vapid airheads try to make comparisons with our southern border.

The Trabant was a POS, and highly polluting. And you couldn't buy one when you wanted to. No, there was a waiting list and it took years. And when the call came down, you had to act fast or lose your spot. So borrowing money from family was the norm.

Leftism is a mental disorder in the sense the premises about human nature are completely flawed. Whether it was designed to "work" or simply destabilize existing, functioning societies might be up for debate, but it certainly does not scale and has caused untold misery every time it has been tried. The "American system" is certainly not perfect, but that's another story. It is absurd that we have to have these conversations but the left has done their work well, working over and guilt tripping everyone and ruining the education system to large degree. They are soul-less SOBs, now that's a fact. Don't be fooled.

1006 Cuomo has 20,000 dead to answer for as of today.

Posted by: Skip at May 08, 2020 05:52 AM (ZCEU2)

I didn't say the Dems were smart; if the Dems were smart, Shrillary would never have gotten the nomination in 2016. Besides, that jacked up 20,000 dead number is Trump's fault.

The Dem bench is shallower than a Mohammedan's gene pool. I figure they'll nominate someone as a throwaway, saving their 'best' for 2024. You know, someone young and vibrant like Rep. Donkey Chompers (extremely Dumb-NY). They might even run Gruesome Newsom (Dumb-CA) in 2024. He's handsome and he'll lock in CA's electoral votes. Oh wait, the Dems already locked in CA's electoral votes. As I stated, I never said the Dems are smart.

The Dem big names are, as stated above, from the coasts and coastal elites won't play well in Middle America. The only candidates they had this time from Middle America were Petey Pie Buttplug (Dick sucker-IN) and Amy Klobuchar (Dumb-MN). Buttplug will never get the Middle America Black vote. Probably lose the Hispanic vote, too. And Klobuchar has anger issues and is as likable as Shrillary.

If wishes were horses, everyone would ride. The world doesn't work that way for whatever reason, and it never will. The "equality of outcome" always ends in killing fields. Every time. History is very clear in this, whether Pol Pot's Cambodia, or Rwanda, or Cuba, or Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union or Mao's China.

That's why History isn't taught in our schools, or at best a perverted, fun-house mirror version.

1063 Serious question: Does the West Odessa, TX Sheriff's Department have ANY physical fitness standards? And who know bulletproof vests came in size XXXXXXL (and still aren't big enough)?

Good question. Undoubtedly, they used to. The Old Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown used to have pretty strict standards (on top of the military height and weight standards). 6 feet minimum and 22" waist iirc.

One can argue about "discrimination" with respect to the morbidly obese, but the fact remains that fat people present an unprofessional appearance. No amount of social jiggery-pokery from the usual suspects is going to change that.

Remember Sowell's aphorism. "Replacing what works, with what sounds good." By removing academic entrance standards, or allowing for convicted felons, all these things become possible. "Sure, you might have done time at the Q for armed bank robbery, but you've got to lose a few pounds Hank, or we can't hire you."

It's always a package deal. So we get to see butterballs that couldn't do a pushup and get their sidearm stolen by some thug and shot in the head in a NY minute.

But it's not "fair" to exclude anyone. This is their logic. Your dying because of their stupid policies is something they're willing to live with.

Well, they haven't released the original, but some highly modified version they hired Microsoft engineers to clean up and make look professional. It's on GitHub, now.

I was just reading an analysis. It's shitcode. It is non deterministic, and will not produce the same output given identical input.

They are too ashamed to release the actual source code Ferguson used. It's supposedly one single source file, 15,000 lines long. They're too ashamed to release that.

Out of boredom, partly anyway, I ordered a sport gas and brake pedal set for my Buick and put them on yesterday. The brake pedal was easy, but the narrow space around the gas pedal made that installation a challenge. Then I drove the car. Maybe it's my imagination, but foot placement is more comfortable and the car seems a fraction more responsive. $136 shipped from a GM OEM parts supplier, and now the car feels as though it were made for me.

My kidhood idea was that the days of the week should have colors. Monday was blue, Tuesday a shade of brown, Wednesday was yellow, Thursday was black, Friday was a lighter shade of brown, and Saturday a dark brown.

I didn't "see" these, of course, I imagined them. Probably based on my favorite TV shows of the time (Zorro, who wore black, aired on Thursday, for example). The high incidence of brown was no doubt due to my family all having brown hair, or the brown wood of the closet in my bedroom.

Or the high numbers of roaches in our house and city.

1120 Doing some cooking this weekend so I headed off to Trader Joe's last nigh to get some stuff. Haven't been there since early March, before the madness.

They had people lined up out on the sidewalk like cattle, 20-25 people, all the way down the sidewalk. Sat in the lot for 10 minutes and didn't see one person leave or enter. I said F that and went directly across the street to Safeway. I really wanted some of that TJ's prosciutto, but lines have to be drawn somewhere.

1121 I don't "see" colors, at least I hope not, but I've wondered how much of musical chords are cultural based, if that makes sense. A G chord or A7 on the guitar sounds bright and happy or hopeful, while other chords can sound really spooky or foreboding, even wicked.

I seem to recall reading somewhere some chords or chord progressions were highly discouraged, or even prohibited, by the Catholic Church. An example would be the opening bars of "War Pigs" by (naturally) Black Sabbath.

1136 Love that pic of schiff with the puckered up mouth. They say his asshole looks the same. Don't want to know, and who would know that. He will walk, no problem, and probably be re elected easily.

Yep. They decided to run him down because he looked like someone who was suspected of doing burglaries.

But in GA you must witness a crime to make a citizen's arrest. Even if he was the burglar they had no business doing anything but calling the cops.

This fits the narrative is too perfectly. The father, ex-cop has stated there are many fact about the case not yet made public. Remember the early reports about Trayvon Martin that fit the narrative and the "facts" seemed clear for all to see.

I'm waiting for the full story.
