It really wasn't my fault.
I didn't mean to go there - it was my GPS.
I never saw any of them before, I swear.
I did not do what they are saying.
Who are you gonna believe,
good ol me?
Or those lying deep fake cell fone videos of me?
And I have a perfect alibi.
I never wore a mask, much less one like that.

Comparing Don Quixote to the Woke seems insulting.
Also, sorry I did not get to reply to your comment about my comment on Lincoln last night WD.
My point would be that while the excesses that Lincoln made were swept away after the war, it kind of... broke the seal on a lot of them. The income tax (which I still say the permanent income tax is the root of pretty much all of our ills.) Shattering of Federalism. It kind of broke the taboo on a lot of these ideas and people started to move and get more comfortable with that direction.
I see your point, and do not see Lincoln as a villain, per se, but there are times when I see the whole of the American Experiment as a Greek tragedy, where everyone can see what is going to happen long before it does, but no one can put the brakes on.

They'll all have fun little pictures on their bellies, and very serious bob haircuts.
Some examples:
Spinster Bear - Will have a ball of yarn, knitting needles and a kitty on her belly.
Frigid Bear - Will have a barren, icy wasteland on her belly.
Wear A Mask Bear - Will have some cute little cartoon viruses on her belly, and a N95 mask accessory.
That's Not Funny Bear - Will have a red circle with a line "No Laughing" symbol on her belly, and wear a permanent scowl on her face.
Open to other suggestions for characters. I think this can be BIG!

Long overdue. The scum were throwing bottles, rocks and metal objects and cops and when the cops go after them they start crying police brutality. Time to give the participation trophy generation the ass beating they well deserve and while they're at it go after their rotten parents.

Psychopaths are actually very convincing liars. They generally are good at mimicking the behavior of others rather than expressing their own. Their lies are generally to manipulate others.
Sociopaths enjoy lying for entertainment value and to hurt.

I would go ask the gang units who are the most vicious and depraved bangers, go spend the afternoon rounding them up, and then giving them a couple hours time of free for all on the antifa pukes. Let the bangers keep the spoils, no matter what form that spoil comes in.
Its a good way to direct the urban yutes anger and violent tendencies in a productive and beneficial manner.

As for topping off liars, it's not impossible, but still really hard. For example, when Bill Clinton was interviewed by Starr, he had heard that touching your face is a tell, so he touched his face the whole time to negate that. But when Starr asked the cigar question, his while face instantly lit up with a "HOW DID HE KNOW THAT!?" and then he remembered to go back to touching his face.

I dunno. I know Amanda Knox had a lot of support, but here's three things you may not have heard:
(1) she was waiting at the local grocers early the next morning before they even opened, and bought out all their bleach(2) she and her boyfriend positively identified another man as the murderer, until the police found he had an air tight alibi(3) she confessed to the murder, and then withdrew the confession
(3) When the police were rolling the roommate's body out on the gurney, you can see amanda and her boyfriend sitting on a wall and passionately making out.

Years ago there was a tv show called "Rescue Me" about NY firefighters. In one episode the younger firemen and older firemen got into a big argument about porn.

Yeah, it's amazing that no city has tried doing mass arrests, which has worked quite successfully in the past.
I recall that during the Rodney King festivities, San Francisco cleared out a pier to use as a mass arrested holding area. You were present at a riot, and off to the pier you'd go.
No blue city would dare do that today - the politicians wouldn't stand for it.

She was an unhappy woman, though being married to Franz Joseph couldn't have been a bed of roses.
I always found it sad that the man who killed her said that he didn't hate Elizabeth, it was just that he wanted to assassinate any royal and she was the easiest one to find.

Now, nobody seems to know where this meme originated. My teenage son doesn't know, and he knows everything about memes. But...there it is. So...*deep breath*
The two people labeled "O" are saying "hi" (O-Hi-O) and my caption is "Always has been".
The meme has been riffed off of a lot. Just last week someone on Twitter was seemingly surprised that conservatives were not being racist but liberals were, and I responded with the meme recaptioned "Wait, it's the conservatives who are against racism?" and the other astronaut saying "Always has been"
Anyhow, if the meme requires this much explanation, it's a dud. Oh well, can't win them all.
Here's a link to the original meme:

We had some issues in Iowa with one guy, and going through his YouTube postings, he has an amazing video of the Cedar Rapids Post Office. He's on the sidewalk filming the parking area, and an employee coming to work starts yelling at him from his car. He then grabs a baseball bat and starts threatening him. This kind of stuff has spiked in the last few months, I'm guessing due to Corona and people being cooped up.

Jeremy Brett is my favorite Sherlock Holmes.
Posted by: No One of Consequence at July 17, 2020 11:46 PM (CAJOC)
When the first Watson (sorry, don't recall his name offhand) left the series (IIRC to do stage work), he suggested his buddy, Edward, for the role and coached him on how to act exactly as he'd been playing Watson so Edward got the job because he was almost the same as the original guy! I never realized during its first run that it wasn't the same guy playing Watson!
Yes, and it is the best Sherlock Holmes portrayal.

I couldn't believe it, by my 90 yr. old mother went out in the garden late (very late) this evening with Miley and picked peas. Miley said she was really going at it.
She said the heat wasn't too bad, but it did make her knees sore. But that's no problem, it's good for her to get interested in stuff again, which she is.
She also was eyeing the corn and just had to pick and ear to see what it looked like. It was still a bit immature, but it's filling out nicely. It will be ready in about a week to 10 days.

Uncle of mine used to be a grade-school principal. Al Lewis was in town for a theater booking, so Uncle invited him to visit the school. Big hit with the kids.
But Lewis stayed longer than expected. To quote my uncle: "Finally got rid of him." That phrase still makes me smile; my uncle can spin a story.

Trouble with sociopaths is that the high-functioning ones are REALLY good at masking their true natures, and are master manipulators. What freaks me out is being gaslit - and the ease and conviction with which certain people do it. Scary shit.

One of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes is on. Donald Pleasance plays an old college professor who is forcibly retired. He's devastated, thinking he hasn't made any difference in the world, made no mark, and is about to kill himself.
His former students, who were various heroes who died in battle and in other selfless acts come back and stop him, explaining that he indeed shaped them and their courage.

I just don't understand it. I'm in several different professional groups for work, and all of the realtors/mortgage bankers/title guys have been saying for months that they can't keep houses on the market. Multiple offers w/in days of listing. Rates at 2.99%. Area "inventory" at less than 30 days.
And here I sit with one offer at 50K less than I listed at (which was exactly what the house 2 doors down sold for, 2 weeks before I listed, after 3 days on the market). I could take the offer, but I'd have to wipe out my savings to make up for the lost equity in order to buy the new house. I'm not willing to do that.
Apparently the hot market is less than 300K and over 500. I've got friends trying to buy in the 600-700K range and they can't get a house for love or money. They've made multiple offers on houses and been outbid each time. Last week a realtor in my networking group had 27 offers on a house listed at 250K in 3 days.
And here I sit, with a really nice house (it's not just me saying that with rose glasses, we never planned to move and have done a lot of work over the past 8 years. All new appliances. Redone the kitchen and all the baths. New water heater and electric panel. Mature fruit trees and a peaceful wooded half acre out back. More), right in the middle, and nobody is interested. I feel like a guy with hundred dollar bills in each hand who can't buy a blowjob at a whorehouse.
Sorry, that's crude, I know, but damnit I'm frustrated and depressed.

Can you work with your realtor, and take it off the market for a week or two, and then relist it at a higher price? Sometimes stuff doesn't sell because it's too cheap, and would-be buyers assume there is a hidden flaw.

The website lists restrictions from the ocean floor to thousands of feet in the air - probably the only area that does that. Lots and lots of wild stuff going on out there.
In the summer, generally, Pyramid Cove - basically the southern tip of the island - is open to recreational/general maritime use. Gotta be my favorite SoCal boat destination.

Heh. Well, I don't think WD is right in downtown B'more. Other houses are selling in his 'hood. Relisting at a higher price can't hurt. Might get the house placed before the eyes of buyers who were looking more up-market. Someone looking for a 500-thou house will likely not even consider one at 400 thou, but might take a peek at a listing for 489,500.

Major chains (Vons, Ralphs) carry St Francis cabernet sauvingnon, which maintains a very high quality, vintage after vintage. Vons will occasionally have it at a pretty nice discount if you buy a six-pack. It's kind of like commodities or certain kinds of stock trading - "I'm a buyer at $17/bottle and below".
It's very good for the price, when discounted, and fair-value good for the normal price. I usually check when I'm in one of the stores, just to see. A simple grilled steak with salt and pepper, some grilled veggies, and St Francis cab is one of my favorite dinners.

I don't think that matters. Buyers see the listing on the Web, and they see the asking price, and if the price is close to the range they expected to pay, they may consider it. Now their agent may say, "This house was listed a month ago at 80,000 less, and the buyer will say, well, you never showed it to use then, did you?"

"Reparations"
There is nothing redeeming, or defensible, or excusable, or other than vile and stupid, about all this racist aggression against decency and common sense, but there is the future dark comedy of a situation in which "reparations" have been paid and ....... um, nothing problematic has changed. At all.

The plumbers have finished their work on the new house putting in the drains and shit before the slabs and foundation is poured next week.
Things have changed. They've put in the water pipes. Its all "home run" PEX now. Individual run of PEX, both hot and cold (red and blue) for each plumbing fixture.
They all run back to a central point next to the water heater location. They'll install a distribution manifold and the water supply will connect to that.
Very different now. PEX is good stuff they assure me. Will expand and contract and can even freeze without bursting.

You're not kidding, that would be epic. If I was loaded I would get a P-40 like the flying tigers had. I just love the looks of that thing. I got a chance to fly a plane once. It was a mooney, which is a weird name, but seemed to be a cool plane. A friend of a friend was a flight instructor and brought me up. Five minutes in he asks if I wanted to fly it. I said are you fucking nuts?? He says no its easy. So I did it. It was almost like driving a car, so I cruised around for 15 minutes or so, then he took over and landed it. It was a shitload of fun. Expensive plane, I think he said 450K or some shit.

The squadron I flew with had never flown a civilian. Didn't know all the rules. Initial briefing was that we'd start by going over to the gunnery range (Avon Park, central FL) AND SHOOT THE GUN, do some target strafing. And then go out over the Gulf for the supersonic/intercept/etc portions of the program.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alas, my heart sunk like a stone - toward the end the briefing, the squadron commander came in, welcomed me, glanced at the whiteboard, and said "uh, you can't do this, all ships are empty and disarmed for civilian flights".
So I was *this* close, really, to not just flying in the F-16 but firing the 20mm gun. Coulda been a contendah.

I have a Pex system in the house here, circa 2008. As advertised, it's perfect.
But. DO. Make sure.
That they install a larger manifold than is needed, so you can at later times, install more runs to newly imagined fixtures than now exist at the time of your blueprinting.
Sooner or later, you'll need 'em.
I already do.
My "redneck" solution is to splice into an existing run, label everything copiously, and thus supply the outdoor kitchen which had heretofore never existed.
But you'll want those vacant spaces in your manifold, for exactly such reasons.
Demand that your plumber makes it so.

And as the plane was a product of the "Lightweight Fighter Program", which sought to optimize air-to-air capabilities, among other things, it has amazing visibility. You sit up very high, the canopy comes down very far - on take-off, it was fairly unnerving, it was like sitting *on top* of something as it hurtles down the run-way.

You gotta carefully cross-check the exact model number of that particular Mooney against the listings.
Chinks bought Mooney about 15ish years ago. The one you flew might've been an 30 year old airplane, hence, no problem.
Thing here is, Mooneys are STILL great airplanes. Still made in Kerrville, TX. All U.S. components.
Just that the Chinks bought the majority shares to keep 'em aloft, there.
That said, I'd still research the when/change dates and model numbers, and call it a hard pass at that moment in time.

Mooneys haven't had wooden spars in their wings since the early '60s "Executive" series.
By time the Mooney 201 appeared on the scene in the late '70s, it was all aluminum everything, everywhere. And has been, ever since.

Re copper. When my father built the house back in 1960, he had the plumber's use thick-wall copper pipe. Type K, not L. The thickest.
An uncle built his house about the same time, and used type M copper. In the '90s, pin hole leaks had developed. I fixed a couple of those for my aunt myself. And there were more later my cousin fixed.

Every word is correct, but misses the point in the posting.
All of those copper systems were series-run, and lacked the ability to turn off the cold water to the kitchen sink or hot water to the Master shower. etc.
The PEX manifold allows for such control.
And is freeze resistant.
Doesn't matter the heavy gauge of the copper, it lacks the flexibility of the PEX system, be it manifold or tubing.

Their war would not have turned on their skill with a 9mm handgun. At least, not while still airborne.
After ejection, and Escape and Evasion, well, that's a different story. A story where their skill with that 9mm might've made all of the difference.
Lack being, not training for the ENTIRE flight envelope, including the Oh Shit I'm On The Ground aspect of the evolution.
Chuck Yeager was a killer, be it pilot or hunter. He could shoot, regardless of the platform.
I'm pretty damn good across the spectrum. Know what though?

Tastes vary (see Brussel sprouts and taste genes, for instance) but there is nothing in okra that even vaguely reminds me of celery.
The slime is what makes it good. That slime is what makes gumbo (and many other soups) what they are.

Oh yes. But my favorite is on the cob. Publius taught me his way to make creamed corn. There are many, it seems - he does a single shallow cut, only the rounded tops, then presses the goody out.
Posted by: Miley, the Duchess, also a Karen at July 18, 2020 03:44 AM (rCwaK)
Note to any lurkers and uninitiated. "Creamed corn", when cut off fresh out of the garden/field, is nothing like the crap sold in the grocery stores. The canned stuff is awful and the frozen stuff is slightly less awful.
Fresh "cut off corn" as we call it is delicious and nothing like the store bought shit.
I am look forward to that indeed. I showed Miley the technique of cutting it off. There are several ways. Our way was to cut off just the tops of the kernels, then scrape the "milk" out. Some make several cutting passes.
Me, I like it cut off the best of all, but Miley still likes it best on the cob. I love it that way too, but the cut off is orgasmic to me.

One more thing -- "my" (Mama's and her mother's) recipe is to cut off as described above, then simmer for about 20 minutes in a big shallow pan. Add bacon grease and salt and pepper to taste.
That's heaven. Some varieties will thicken (has to do with starch content, I think) and take adding water, less it get too thick and stick to the pan as it simmers.

My corn-y story:
This one time my Mom and me were visiting her uncle and aunt, my great uncle, but I just called him Uncle. He was a former farmer, Holstein milk cow herd and acres of silver queen corn. This was after he was retired and moved off the farm. In his backyard he had a garden like nobody's business. A couple of rows of that wonderful silver queen corn. Saturday night's dinner was served with corn on the cob fresh of the stalk and tossed into already boiling water. It was delicious. I make the comment: This corn is so good, I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Now Norris, being practical but not really exuberant, decided he would get me. Sunday at breakfast, there were pancakes and country sausage patties on the table. But on my plate, he put an ear of corn. I merely looked at it, rubbed it with butter, sprinkled some salt and pepper on it, and began eating with reli-, with gleeful abandon. Realizing he didn't 'get me', all he could say was, "At least you're a man of your word."
It's true, though. In-season, I can eat silver queen corn for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Well, I'm still up -- corn talk, I can't resist. Me, I like it a bit on the soupy/thinner side.
I have eaten so much of it I thought I was going to bust wide open. Like crack to me. Take that, some sliced tomatoes, maybe some squash and something else, peas, beans, whatever, and I'm in heaven. Now, some good crisp bacon will go well with the corn and tomatoes.
I would take that over any fancy gourmet $$$ restaurant any day of the week.

I planted both Silver Queen and some yellow stuff, again from the Gray Court feed and seed guy. The Silver Queen is a little behind the yellow, although planted at the same time. I don't even know what variety the yellow is, but it was very hearty. It got rain just in the nick of time.

I laid the nitrogen on pretty thick to it as well, and the rain hit just right to keep it from wasting. Corn needs nitrogen like a crack whore needs crack. But it needs water to go along with it.
I always liked to just give it some "starter" nitrogen at planting (with a balanced fertilizer), then add straight nitrogen once it was about shin high.
