Tonight's ONT Has A Guest Author!
Well, we've moved, but things still aren't settled down. The moving truck with our stuff was supposed to be here Monday, but our driver got subpoenaed as a witness in a court case late Friday afternoon, so all our stuff spent Monday and Tuesday chilling in an 18 wheeler in Indiana. They got here last night, but didn't start delivering stuff until this morning. The 18 wheeler won't fit down our street, so it's parked about a mile away and they are loading a box truck for delivery to our house. We got 2 loads today, 2 more tomorrow should finish it. Good news is that my grill was in one of the loads, so I was able to grill a nice steak dinner. I invited the movers to eat with us and they couldn't get over it. Said nobody's ever cooked them dinner before. I find that hard to believe, but whatever.
So it's been a crazy day, and I kept telling Gingy “I don't see when I'm going to have time to write the ONT”. She said “I've seen those picture dumps you sometimes do, why don't I do one”? So tonight's ONT is courtesy of Gingy. It's not that long, but I hope you enjoy it. I'll try to have more traditional ONT tomorrow night.
Tonight's ONT brought to you by a cartoon that Hank (ibguy) would have liked:

Outside the window of her room, is the southbound express lanes. Nothing unusual there except for the tractor trailer hanging over the side of the elevated lanes.
No injuries fortunately.
The woman driver of the truck lost control from going to fast.
So they say. She may have been trying to parallel park, but the officers were covering for her.

As a talk show host, I thought Dan Patrick was a bit of an uninformed blowhard because, well, he was. He didn't let knowing only half of the facts keep him from having an opinion about the issue. But he's been a very, very good lieutenant governor, and much more of a human being. I spoke to him at length at the state convention a couple of years ago and he really had a genuine interest in what's going on out there away from Austin.

On the Original Star Trek series, when there was an "away party" of the crew to check out something on a planet, the crewman wearing the red tunic usually got killed. It happened often enough that it became sort of a running joke.

The debate is sponsored by Portland's City Club, which is a century-old "good government" organization, similar to what a lot of cities have.
However, it got taken over by SJW's a number of years ago, which may explain the technical incompetence. Before the audio completely broke down, the president of City Club (a lesbian, of course) did manage to read off a long statement stating that we are all on "stolen land".
My response to cr*p like that is to snarl: "If you truly think that you are on stolen land, why are you still here?"
No laughs at the debate tonight, I guess.

Routing.
Plus I don't know if they still do this but certain companies have to use certain routes to service certain states.
This is supposedly to keep everyone from competing for and using the "good" routes.
But like all things government all it winds up doing is raising the cost of shipping and creating artificial delays.
OR
The company may have certain routes to travel that are required for the drivers to use.
There's a bunch of reasons for that.

Portland City Club has gone full hard-Left - it has been hemorrhaging members, and now refuse to have debates on several ballot propositions, because there is obviously a Good Side and an Evil Side. No point allowing the Evil Side to speak, of course.
The funniest thing about the aborted debate is that the sponsors of the debate are Chevron and the local natural gas company, which is driving the gerbil warmistas on the YouTube channel nuts.

I don't want to hear *any* gripes about tear gas in the open. Try standing in a 15x15 room with no mask, no ventilation, and a large can of that sh*t cooking on a stove. And then start singing Army songs. And then realize you're going to be in that room inhaling a whole lotta tear gas because some j-hole is too chicken stuff to take his mask off. So it gets taken off for him.

The annual ball drop in Times Square on New Years Eve will be "virtually enhanced, visually compelling and very different" this year with only a very limited number of in-person attendees, organizers announced Wednesday, marking the latest high-profile event to be affected by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
The event's socially-distanced "limited live entertainment" is still in development, but there will be an "extremely limited group of in-person honorees" who will "reflect the themes, challenges and inspirations of 2020."

Seattle is losing businesses and jobs like crazy. The local media headlines it as Covid then, several paragraphs down, they mention the looting and burning.
Also, waterfront businesses being closed because the city owned piers are collapsing. I for one, will laugh my ass off to see the big, now closed, ferris wheel sink below the waves.

Instead tell him, it is crap that he is required to read to pass a class. If he fails this class he will not be eligible to go into massive debt attending college to learn skills that may sometime within 30 years allow him to pay it off, and he will have to go into a trade like baking or welding where he could make ungodly money quite quickly and maybe even own his own house in his twenties.

As we pulled up to my house, I told her 'Shit, I forgot my house key! Took it off the keychain earlier and left it on the counter'
' Does your bra have an underwire? I can use it to pick the lock on the back door'.
She seems confused, slightly taken aback but agrees to give me her bra.
She takes it off in that magical way women do without actually taking off her shirt.
I smiled at her and said 'thanks, that'll save some time' and proceeded to open the door with my key.

Okay. In Seattle yesterday at a hospital for my friends chemo infusion.
Outside the window of her room, is the southbound express lanes.
Nothing unusual there except for the tractor trailer hanging over the

No injuries fortunately.
The woman driver of the truck lost control from going to fast.
So they say. She may have been trying to parallel park, but the officers were covering for her.

Those express lanes are retarded. Back in 92 I got in a 50mph crash because of those stupid things. They were closed heading south so you are supposed to get over 2 lanes. They give you a 3 mile warning. But all of the idiots go flying by passing everybody and then force their vehicle in at the last minute. Long story short, I rear-ended a Canadian guy who got confused and stopped his car in the middle of a 55mph zone. I didn't see it in time because one of those idiots passing everybody cut me off and blocked my view before rapidly forcing his way into the next lane over.

A bunch of years ago now, when the Capital Beltway got its first set of express lanes complete with the pay-up requirement, the first few days were a disaster waiting to happen. There were people who realized they were going into the express lanes, stopped, backed their cars up, and rejoined the traffic in the regular lanes. It was live all over the local news, including live shots from the news helicopters hovering overhead. The morning and afternoon traffic people at WTOP radio were beside themselves, and it took a lot to get the afternoon guy angry.

It does lead to odd outcomes sometimes. e.g.: our primary ballots have Dem/GOP/Libertarian columns for partisan contests. Everyone gets the same ballot, but once you pick a lane you have to stay in it. If there are no real contests in the GOP I'll vote the Libertarian column for lulz. In 2016 so many Dems crossed over to make sure that squishy tech-bro Doug Burgum was the R candidate in November instead of some icky actual conservative, that some of their legislative candidates almost didn't get enough district votes to get their name on the November ballot.

Thank you.
Murray was very much the archetypal silent diva. Her career basically nosedived after her marriage in 1926 to "Prince" David Mdivani, who took over her career and convinced her to leave MGM, which enraged Louis B Mayer, who basically made sure she never worked in any other major studio.
She coasted on the success of Merry Widow for years, and whenever she deigned to appear at a swanky restaurant or nightclub, would demand they play the Widow waltz, to which she would twirl around the floor, a display that became sad and grotesque as she got older, heavier and crazier.
For most of her later years, she lived in poverty - Mdivani had taken all of her money - and more than once was found sleeping on park benches.
She was finally admitted to the Motion Picture House in Hollywood, a sort of stars' retirement place, where she died in 1965.

They ordered an Italian place I really like, so I was seriously considering pilfering half their order and writing on the bag, "I saw your awesome sign and was so moved, I made the unilateral decision to redistribute half your dinner order tonight to the needy.

The Regency period started in the 1790s and ended around 1820. The gowns were empire-waist (waistline sits just below the bust), and inspired by Marie Antoinette's gowns.
One big mistake people make is thinking the Regency era was as prudish as the Victorian. The Victorian era was actually a reaction to the comparative hedonism of the Regency.

So I stick to cruisin' along on the old Schwinn balloon tires. I have (among others) a 1950 model B6: tanks, racks, fenders, lights, horn, locking springer fork, the works. Nice thing about the antiques is the efficiency. A road bike takes a cruise of damn near forty miles to get any serious exercise. On the Schwinn I can get that workout done in less than ten.

but it also has something similar to a runner's high, albeit an easier one to achieve.

A true story ... or so I was told:
If you visit DFW (iirc) and go to a very tall bank building downtown (BoA, Wells Fargo ???) you will see a very old piece of paper in a large frame.
You might ask why there is a very old piece of paper in a large frame and you will be told ...
When the bank began building their large building, they ran a standard title search and the title company came back with the all clear. They began building.
A few months later a little old man showed up with his taco cart and told them to get off off his corner. He had been vacationing down in Mexico so he hadn't been on his corner for a while but now he was back and he wanted them off of his corner.
Bank // construction company laughed and 1) told him to take a hike 2) called the cops 3)both 4)neither.
Few weeks later ... legal notice comes to the bank / construction company: Cease and Desist. The little old man wants his corner back so he can sell his tacos.
They go to court. Bank has title search. Little old man and his mother/wife/sister shows up ... with a Land Grand from King Phillip of Spain granting them land rights in perpetuity ... which happen to be legal documents in the State of Texas which may but usually don't show up in title searches.
Lawyers for little old man and family mentions that his clients are not ... unreasonable people ... and the bank / construction company already has dug such a deep hole it would be hard to sell tacos all the way down there.
Which is why you may now visit a tall bank building in Texas with a very old piece of paper in a large frame in the lobby.

Asked and answered
On December 8, 1941, hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Japanese forces from the Marianas launched an invasion of Guam. Chamorros from the Northern Marianas, which had been under Japanese rule for more than 20 years, were brought to Guam to assist the Japanese administration. This, combined with the harsh treatment of Guamanian Chamorros during the 31-month occupation, created a rift that would become the main reason Guamanians rejected the reunification referendum approved by the Northern Marianas in the 1960s.

the springer front end. Unless its a flathead. Still, it would also be a
thing of beauty. They are getting stooopid pricey, especially if it's
an original sidecar. It should stay in tune for a while, you just have
to adjust the points every so often.
I don't know much about bikes (one of my great regrets) All I know it's an exciting ride on the expressway. I think the sidecar is original. Love those old bikes, but those guys carried a tool roll.

Weight wasn't an issue, because lightweight parts simply didn't exist for such in the early '70s.
But the first speeding ticket I ever got was on a Styer 10 speed in 1974. Downhill on Linda Vista Boulevard, headin' towards Old Town and Point Loma, beyond.
42mph in a 40 zone. Chickenshit ticket you say?
Well, yeah. But I did pass the motorcycle cop on the right hand side, and I think he felt honor bound to send me to the chair.
Which featured in a movie, a decade or so later.

That was during the Q and A part. If you watch it without embellishment Schiff can be clearly heard saying, "Jerry, Jerry" as fails to get Nadler to step to the podium to answer the question Roberts had just asked on behalf of a senator. Even everyone else at the Dem table was like, "Oh, no" and there was an audible gasp from the rest of the room.

That's why Saipan was the first Japanese territory, with civilians, we invaded in WWII. The Gilberts and Marshalls were also part of Japan's WWI winnings, but only military and related (construction workers, mostly impressed Koreans) were in those sparsely populated islands, apart from the natives.
Was in a museum once where they had displayed an invoice from the Japanese Army to a rice farmer in Saipan during the war, text on the exhibit said "occupied Saipan". I jokingly pointed out the error to a docent, who loved it, and said he'd talk to the curator.

Sikorsky Jolly Greens and Boeing Chinooks.
You can easily on-load about 100 passengers, and RTB with the original three flight-crew and six "management" crew necessary as to un-lading the helicopter while in flight.
Fuel costs decrease with efficiency, you see.
A lesser Blackhawk 'copter might only offload about twenty, and at only about a 20% fuel saving.
Fly the Big Birds, and save.
Or if you're into volume.
Fly the C-5 galaxy, palletize the bastards, and use parachute in-flight extraction.
Bonus if you do it from about 18,000 ft. Just enough to make 'em woozy, but not enough to make 'em un-aware.

I pray for not a war within our country again, yet it is apparent that there are forces arrayed against the Republic.
And they have raised their own flags to challenge us THUS and in the streets of our homes. And raise violence against us for their aberrant cause to destroy the Republic.
Then let us meet them accordingly....without fear and knowing we are once again fighting for the Republic.

Wasn't I on here talking about food last night? Yes, yes I was.
Meyer lemons from my grandma's very happy tree. She gathers them off the ground and squeezes them, and I have a good gallon of pure, strained juice in my freezer. Just made the most intense lemonade ever. Actually it's not lemonade because I didn't add water; just juice and sugar. It'll calm my stomach down and put me right to sleep.

Yeah in my case it will be moving 3 businesses worth of tools. The garage is like part harley shop, part machine shop. There is a lot of heavy stuff. I'll need to get somebody that specializes in moving machines. Then there is all the woodworking stuff, which is contractor tools and guitar building tools. Then you got the music gear which is whole another order of intelligence, because I got enough to pack the stage at Wacken, and I'm not kidding. Packing properly for the rest of the house just isn't going to happen. I got a feeling I'm going to moving clothes in piles of plastic bags, and shoveling shit wholesale into boxes. lol

Its going to be an epic pain in the ass. I was dreading this day for the last 10 years because I knew it was going to happen eventually. Every time I looked in the garage I would say if I ever move I'm going to be ass fucked with sand. Getting that frigging roadrunner was the straw that broke the camel's back. It took up a big chunk of the garage and you can't work in it unless you move the car. I can't even get the harley out unless I move the car. It killed the garage dead.

Re He. Second most abundant element in the universe, but very rare on earth, because it's so light it easily escapes the atmosphere back into space. We get it out of the deep ground, along with oil and natural gas.
There is some dispute on where this helium comes from. Many geologists think it comes from radioactive decay (beta particles, which are helium nuclei), but others think it is primordial.
At any rate, the US is the biggest helium producer in the world, and we had a strategic helium reserve. THey passed something that would sell that off (for the money) a while back.
At any rate, supply is drying up. Demand was abated by the lockdowns, turns out, and the helium supply crunch has lessened for now. There are critical needs for helium, such a superconducting MRI magnets and other scientific needs.
The price got high enough that many of these users started installing very expensive reclamation systems to capture and re-liquefy the He that boiled off of their systems.

Last place was 20 years in one spot that had been planned as a 5 year stop. Accumulated way too much crap. Moved most of it myself a pickup truck load at a time over about 6 months. Still needed movers to come in with their biggest truck at the end.
Now, 3 months later, still finding stuff in random boxes. Did get the clothes out of plastic bags. Once I ran out of bags it was time to actually do laundry.

Good god, you are laying out perfectly my road ahead. I won't have 6 months though, because I have to buy the new place before I sell the old place, so the old place can't linger because no way am I going to be able to pay a 3-400K mortgage for an extended period while I wait around to sell the old place. The old place is paid off, but the property taxes are $800 a month, because fucking jersey. I need to get rid of the old place and pay off the new mortgage. Houses don't stay long on the market here. Some are gone in a week, but it will take a month to get this one ready after its empty. its going to blow epic ass.

The rolling scaffold system I've used to work on my house, killed my one car garage.
As did the two Tool Chest Towers, the two workbenches, the built in platforms for the 5/8" industrial Drill Press and 8" bench grinder. Much less the mobile platforms for the 1"x42" belt sander, the 12" Hitachi mitre saw and the 10" cast iron Crafstman table saw.
I have oh so many other power tools. But they're built onto elevated perches suspended below the rafters, and thus free of the perditions of floods and other tropical storm driven waters.
But still. I'll negotiate all this into a move, if only to cover the labor therein.

My garage is 20X30, but its the damn harley stuff. Milling machine, lathe, 40 ton press, 2 bike lifts with 2 harleys sitting on them, parts washer, benches, 2 huge tool chests, one has the side boxes, compressor, valve grinding stuff, a fuck ton of harley parts on 2 massive shelf racks, paint equipment, etc etc etc and the frigging car. The wood tools are in the basement because nooo way they fit in the garage. I figured the best thing is to get one of those POD things dropped off in front of the garage and just pile everything except the tools and heavier machines into it and have them drive it up the street. that would probably be the easiest.

I mentioned it earlier, but keep in mind one of the most common tools of the left, to control the message.
For the Left, if something is good, it still isn't perfect, so it isn't good enough. So tear it down.
Don't fall into that fallacy.
Because nobody or nothing is perfect. Is it getting better? This is the question to ask. The question the dishonest Left refuses to ask. Because they know the answer and would lose some of their political power from the crazies.
And I would say that it continues to be good, and for most, getting better. Crooked elections and FBI agents not withstanding.

Yeah I don't think I'm going to have that much help. I might get some. Its not just the move, its getting the house I'm in now ready to sell. It don't need much, but enough to keep me busy for a month or so on top of the move. The new place is pretty much mint and move in condition. There are some things that are a little bit dated, but its mint. My friend owns it and was fanatical in how he kept it. He built it in the 80's, so some things scream 80's. I don't "have" to do shit to it to actually move in and live there, so that's one thing that's in my favor.

Is the creation and maintenance of a full time Army inimical to the health of the Republic? Are there safeguards and have we successfully put the safeguards in place?
-it opens the door to... mischief. Does anyone doubt that if the Left thought they could count on the strength of the military to be employed on their side that they would hesitate to use it? (cue wondering about Obama's leadership... changes)
-I wonder if you have a full time army, if one way to keep mischief from rearing it's ugly head is to demand military service? Or does that only work in the case of constant existential threat as with Israel? Does universal enrollment mean you dilute the strength of what you have, absent that existential threat?
I am not sure where I am going with this. One of the things posed in the podcast I have been listening to is that Rome's transition to a full time army was 'Mercenary work under the guise of state policy.' My initial thought is that this is bullshit and that the presenter is ignoring some vital cultural and societal changes that he does not want to think about.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
-John Addams
That pretty much sums up the issue for me, whether it be talking about military or political debate. As long as we have common cause and actually feel as though we are one people, there is no danger.

Go back a decade. We had a border collie mix who we always swore just inhaled her food. One day our 3 year old came down the hall and left his pancake on a stick of n a he coffee table. He goes back down the hall and starts crying that his food is gone. Look for it, don't find anything, whatever. He's 3, right.
Long story short, about 4 days later we're listening to our vet explain how he removed the skewer from our girl. It had gone down so fast that it punctured not only her stomach, but also 3 loops of intestine. Said he'd never seen anything like it. He had a picture of her X-ray on the wall for years.

The founders weren't exactly crazy about having a standing army because they knew in the wrong hands it could enslave the people. The 2A was designed to be the safety against that, and its why they meant for us to have EXACTLY the weapons our military would have. Their vision was 2 armies, the civilian one, and the professional one. Just like you have volunteer fire departments and paid departments. They use the same gear, but one gets paid to hang around the fire house. The armed populace was a counter to the professional army, so in case it got into the hands of people like these jerkoff leftists it couldn't be used for evil, or at least stopped in its tracks because the civilian army would be vastly larger in numbers, and armed as heavy.
Posted by: Berserker-Dragonheads Division at September 25, 2020 04:17 AM (9Om/r)
My interpretation on the 2A as well.
Posted by: Aetius451AD Work Laptop at September 25, 2020 04:19 AM (cI3Q7)
Addams was making a moral judgement based on religion. So, in other words that the people would have the same moral code and in general the same values. The common cause and thinking of yourself as one people is subsidiary to that idea, not the root cause.
The flip side of this is Worldwide Marxism. They have common ideals and may think of themselves as one people (laying aside that they would happily begin purging the shit out of opposing splinter groups the minute they had disposed of their common enemy.)

Reasoning for the change, it's been determined that seniors have been negatively hurt emotionally by the lockdowns. No shit Sherlock. I have a mother that was negatively impacted not just emotionally but I believe physically. Could I have stopped her stroke from happening, no, but maybe I could have seen some sign that she was having issues.

In my experience (which is of the NHS, so I'm setting a very low bar) most doctors that I've run into are barely a step above leech throwers. If the examined chickens entrails at a consultation I would not be that surprised.

We've talked about it since the silliness began, but I'd love to know the number of nursing home residents who passed away from physical or mental neglect. I'm betting it's a significant percentage of the total nursing home deaths.

Was the Inman character who does the play by play voiceovers of Andy and Brandy Tifa known for something prior to having that comedy goldmine dropped in his lap?
I looked at the Twitter feed of the young man who delivered the "Tittypussy for our new mascot" appeal and it seemed to me that he had a spectacular "one off" event there. The rest of his stuff, and the humor therein, was pretty nondescript, in my opinion.

I think he took himself out of the stream here. I never grasped what had happened to him, but he appeared to take a dislike to one or more folks here as being his tormentor(s) and cobs had to warn him repeatedly to knock that off. My recollection may be in error, however, as I did not frequent the ONT as much back in his day.

We have resorted to assigning a single tent to each scout who attends camping trips each month. Last night we showed them how to invert the main body of one and hang it outside in bright sunlight to let the UV rays deal with any viruses.
I had some adults who had advocated spraying tents with the same goop used to disinfect wrestling mats, but its instructions paid no or scant attention to whether or not it had anti-viral effects. Yet SCIENCE! had settled on using that as the solution.

It would be much more honest if the selection process was completely random. The quality of the admitted class would be unaffected.

1981: Sandra Day O'Connor is sworn in as the first female justice on the Supreme Court.
Posted by: rhennigantx at September 25, 2020 06:42 AM
This is how History.com summarizes it:
On September 25, 1981, she was sworn in as the 102nd justice -- and first woman justice -- in Supreme Court history.
Initially regarded as a member of the court's conservative faction, she later emerged from William Rehnquist's shadow (chief justice from 1986 to 2005) as a moderate and pragmatic conservative.
"Moderate and pragmatic conservative". Yeah, she ended up being a liberal.

Could be, for those so inclined. It actually looks like a shot from a 30's or so Hollywood extravaganza of some sort.

Cooth went thru hell, got infected from a link here. Cost him a lot of time and agony.
It made him paranoid and he got banned. When he was unbanned he lasted a bit, but couldn't let it go and made references to who he thought was his persecutor. Now that I think about it Ira comes to mind. Anyhow he got banned again.
Miss him, nice guy, always helpful and a smart dude. Met him IRL at the Vegas MoMee and he was a great dude. Also miss Chi who got banned for defending him.

Haven't seen Bruce. Looks like a nice fall day today in N IL. It seems like a few more and then we cool off.
I think we are missing beanervt's report on the weather there.
