I've wondered how RV get around open container laws or "in control of a motor vehicle" and the rest of it. These days, one can probably get a DUI just having driven by a liquor store in the past few days.
I've always been skeptical, even in a campground. Seems to me the standards used for automobiles on city streets aren't applicable to RVs necessarily, or camper vans. Many a "reasonable person" has gotten a drunk driving charge that stuck merely by sleeping in the back seat of their car.
The story that went around in high school was to hide your keys in a campground or wherever, at kegs, that kind of thing. Don't know how true that is. So it seems like it would be easy pickin's in a campground or anywhere RVers and alcohol combine.

Our dear daughter and her guy got hitched a year ago last Saturday. Their planned family-gathering wedding at my Mom's, with a Hawaii honeymoon, got reduced to saying the I Do's at a little tiny town wedding chapel, and a road trip around the state. (No Hawaii, but it is a great state.)
So, they just took a kinda 1st-anniversary-2nd-Honeymoon trip to New Orleans and Florida. [Ground report: Floridians without masks and restrictions, acting normal.] [Local ground report: same here by the time they got back!]
But, as you say, someday, they may actually have a reception. (Come to think of it, Milady and I never had a real wedding party. Maybe for our 50th anniversary.)

"Are you goin' to San Francisco (wear flowers in your hair) was not a "counterculture" affair. It was about as Corporate as it gets, if you think about it. Thousands and thousands of runaways showed up in the "Haight" and overwhelmed city services like nothing before ever seen there. The whole "Hippie" movement was a media creation.
Not that there weren't genuine counterculture types, I'm not saying that at all. What I'm saying, is any grass roots movement will get co-opted into something else entirely.
Technically speaking, or nominally speaking the Democrat party both started the Viet Nam war and the "Anti war" movement. Neat huh? What could go wrong?

The weasel word here is "reject". On the other hand, Charles Stanley categorically rejects the doctrines of Grace so the Potter's Freedom is an alien concept to Chuck.
Since God predestines who He will save, there is no chance of anyone just wandering up and "accepting" Christ.
It is rational to have it that way since Salvation is sure if God goes about the whole process from the very beginning to the end to redeem His Elect. You aren't sitting around wondering if the Christ you have in mind is the True One.

That list of sixteen off-limits entities is insulting. Like in never occurred to anyone who has a nuclear equipped global military that the opponent may have some critical infrastructure.
I sort of get the stupidity of the whole gesture. The list was conjured up by Snowflake staffers who have gone their entire life defining things that others can't do and #cancelling those who don't comply.
They see Putin as a Facebook or Twitter personality. If they can #cancel Trump on anything, then that same magic applies to foreign powers.

The list of off limit targets was probably the brain child of Rice or Klain to show how tough a negotiator The Meat Puppet is.
No way that list was signed off on or run through The Pentagon or DHS.

Posted by: Methos at June 16, 2021 09:50 PM (kOpft)
A couple of the early S1 episodes were a little "meh". I attribute that to deciding to keep Goggins after the pilot and the re-structuring that caused. Also, they have to introduce all of the characters.
A couple of S5 episodes are "meh", mostly because anything following S4 would be a letdown by definition. Also, one of the actors in S5 wanted out so they had to kill his character earlier than planned and that probably impacted a few episodes.
Ending a great series well is almost impossible. I give the ending a 9. I don't think any ending has ever rated a 10.

It must have been something. The moon landings, Woodstock, and Teddy "the swimmer" Kennedy, and the Manson family Tate-Labianca killings for example were all within a few weeks of each other.
Part of the Canon drilled into our heads as post-60s, any "documentary" must always imply a direct causal interpretation that a bunch of stoned and dirty hippies "ended the war" and isn't it just sad that "all those boys died for "nothing".
Maybe the South Vietnamese troops can help is out with a little pacification program, help root out communists here?

I don't think any state conforms neatly to a given archetype, so I haven't put a lot of thought into that particular question. China (or at least parts of China) in the 19th and early 20th century might qualify. There are some who would suggest the Roman Empire in its later stages did too, but even there, enough people were making a serious attempt to provide law and order, defense, etc until almost the end.

Anti: The legislature in Dopey Joe's home state of Delaware has passed a boneheaded bill making it a felony to even send someone the 3D printer file for printing a gun. Their governor has not signed it yet.
I predict that these dullwits are going to get a lot of STL files in their own personal email accounts, should this become law.

It turns to chewy rubber when baked at normal temps. I buy anything but that. For subs, Monterey Jack and other white cheeses that melt well, with plenty of fat, are what you want. A small amount of cheddar mixed in works OK with it too. I think the skim milk mozz is used as an extender for the restaurants maybe.

The way people get nailed for that is if they are drunk in a parked car on a *public* street. I think it is chickenshit to get someone for a dui if they are not in the driver's seat, but if you are on a public road, you are vulnerable. An RV park or campground is private property, so a whole different situation.

The "summer of love" was more like '65 or so, if you ask people born and raised in California. Even Jerry Garcia, who was ... well sort of there I guess, pointed this out. "Death of the Hippie" was published in Time in '66 or something like that.
The whole thing just sort of smells from 50 years later. An intractable land war on the other side of the world, and anarchists tearing everything up at home. I think at the height there were 500,000 stationed in South Viet Nam, they shoulda redeployed everybody to Berkely, Madison, Ann Arbor, etc.

All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. John 6:37
All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. Luke 10:22
I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. John 10:14-18

Some campgrounds are state or county owned. They sometimes have "No Alcohol" policies, which is understandable from a liability angle. Kids and keggers and wooded areas = problems. I've always figured if discreet, they won't care. But I don't want to test it either.
Lots of federal jurisdiction with "dispersed" camping too. I'm just saying there's no appreciable difference that I can see, other than what is customary.
Drunk sitting around a campfire, or RV, they could clean up. "Is that your car? You got your keys in your pocket?"

Welcome Marie,
No real way to go wrong, jump in, enjoy yourself. Add to a convo or start one yourself. Don't feel bad if No one picks up on it tho. That happens a lot. The Horde is less herdable than cats.

In nearby Maryland we've often wondered if it might be the radon. When we first moved here, we found the people odd. They didn't know how to give directions, they misunderstood basic english, they asked about things that were obvious: "so it looks like November will be following October again this year..."
The wife dubbed it Spore Disease.
And don't get me started on the women. It's a Karen Hive.

Seems to me common sense should rule the day. If the vehicle is configured for camping, .i.e. awning out, jacks down, plugged in to shore power, etc., DUI should not apply. If the vehicle is ready to hit the road at the turn of the key, then it should.

A professional drunk told me, if you have to stay awake keep the windows rolled up, and turn on the heat full blast. It is annoying, but it works I guess. Thankfully I don't drive drunk, so I haven't had to test that, but I file info like that under "interesting but probably useless information."

They don't need a warrant either, the game commission in some states can come right in and look in your freezer, iirc. Whether they can then bust the Meth Lab is in some dispute, but I think they can call in the people who can.
We did a brief joint operation with DEA in Hawaii, they had their own aircraft, but we drove them around the Big Island on UH60s to bust peoples growing The Marijuana. They were good spotters. "Look! There's one!" (Note, from 800 or 1000 feet, EVERYTHING IS GREEN IN HAWAII) Sure enough, we'd spiral down, get a close look, see hoses and buckets, and a thin trail leading to somebody's house (probable cause) Busted.

On the one hand, the judges get to run as "tough on crime," on the other, the DA's office has to actually work and charge what they can prove which I image frustrates them as opposed to the "charge to the moon and get a plea deal" as defense attorneys aren't going to survive by getting clients to plead guilty and accept inflated charges in the process.

I have a transformer that I am trying to use for electrolytic cleaning.
The schematic says the 120 volt input is h1 and h3, and h2 and h4. Okay...that makes sense.
But the 12 volt output says x1 TO x3, and x2 TO x4.
What the hell does that mean?

My brother-in-law is kind of an alcoholic. We were down at his house in December, and were driving around in the hills looking at stuff, riding in his old Chevy pick up (he has about a dozen cars, probably like Alberta Oil Peon, he's actually a great mechanic). At some point in time, we stopped at a carry-out, and got a six pack of Miller. He started drinking and driving. It was pretty funny drifting into that kind of thing, riding around in an old pick-up trunk, drinking beer out of a long-neck bottle.

Interestingly enough, vintage trash piles are "protected" under US Antiquities law in federal parks and the like. They are considered artifacts just like ancient arrowheads and pottery shards. That includes beer cans and tobacco tins and stuff like that.
Not sure what the cutoff date might be. All I know is the Rangers get really pissy if I throw empty Hormel Chili cans and whisky bottles around as "future cultural artifacts", they seem strangely unreceptive to this line of argument. Weird.

Ohm it out! Use the ohms function on a multimeter to read between terminals, and determine if there is continuity between the various windings.
Just a wild-ass guess, but it sounds like that might be a dual-voltage transformer, intended to be used on either 120 or 240 volt single-phase power.

I think Alberta Oil Peon is probably close to it. Probably putting on jumpers controls whether it's a 120 volt transformer or a 220 volt transformer, single phase.

He never used to wear women's underwear.
Now he does....all the time.
And if you want to know what Victoria's Secret really is, and that the whole thing is run out of Columbus. Wexner lives in New Albany (a suburb he built up) and the east side of the city is thick with his warehouses and stuff. I go by a big Victoria's Secret center every day on East Broad Street at the eastern most edge of Franklin County.
There's a big unmarked building further up north where all the super models hang out. I used to know a guy that did a lot of software development for the Limited (put on the first Victoria's Secret webcast in 1997), and he worked there. It drove his wife nuts when she came in to see him, as there were all these half - naked supermodels roaming around.

These things come in waves, and sometimes they are a little early, and not ready for prime time. Those with long memories may remember a short lived "UniSex" fashion craze in the early 1970s. The idea was all the rage in the college academic set. There would be no "boy" or "girl" fashions, everything would be "UniSex". It didn't sell then.
What I'm getting at, is termites never quit. They are making a big stink about getting fuel pipelines shutdown. Rumblings about outlawing cars by such and such a year. Like someone said today, they might be lying about the "why" but they aren't lying about the "what". Prepare accordingly. I could smell it when it looked like Canklez was inevitable. They are crazy, they want "revenge" for a litany of offenses in this country, things that nobody in this country are guilty of, things that never actually happened, but they are extremely dangerous and control many levers of power.
It happens in every country the same way. Demonization of a particular ethnic group or political party, increasing demagoguery.Soun familiar?

I think you must be correct. A couple high school buddies got into that shit. One, I've no idea what happened to him. Might be dead, not sure. The other, both him and his wife we're into it. I got tired of hearing him "Oh, we don't do that anymore." for about the 5th time. The last time I heard that I just laughed and never bothered talking to him again. Not worth the risk, it isn't that I don't care, but I can't help them, and they can only hurt me, so forget it. Stupid f?kers.

This too, shall pass. Life often sucks, not because of anything YOU did, but because God granted the other bastards free will as well. You can make every dang correct choice, and still your life can be impacted by others poor decisions.
So grab the good memories you can.... those perfect moments that make the sucky parts a little less... sucky.
That perfect first kiss.... that great sunrise or sunset. The laugh of a child...

Beer now tastes just like I remember it tasting as a child, that is, terrible!

Meth changes the very EEG patterns in a brain scan. Down to the lizard brain stem itself. I'd be joyous to see one such recovered back to a normal scan, but have yet to see such, yet. Those who have "recovered", do so through much counseling and self-discipline. But I've yet to know of a scan restored back to normal, at least that I'm aware of.
Not judging. My last brain scan came back negative, so, D'oh!

Like whiskey, it's a powerful anodyne. Embrace the healing power of "and."
Related: the word "pie" is a medieval Latin/English doggerel corruption that doesn't exist anywhere but English. It's a weird word for a big, round, stuffed pastry.
And pi creates the basis for all round things.
So:
Maybe pie is G-d's Circle.

A couple lessons I've learned the hard way.
No one else can make you happy... you have to do that for yourself... BUT... others can make you miserable.
2? Life sucks. Its going to suck. Grab the good moments when you can to get you though the suck.
3? We are all going to die. But the important thing is NOT how we die, but how we live. I made the decision... shit... 40 some years ago, that I would NOT Die for my country... but I would KILL for it.

Okay, I should have been reading earlier. Dual voltage transformers. This is standard. Two windings on primary and secondary. Primary side is dubbed "h" and secondard side is dubbed "X".
This gives you dual voltage capabilities on each side. Take the standard 120/240::12/24V transformer. H1 and H2 are one primary winding. H3 and H4 are the other. X1 and X2 and X3 and X4 are the two secondary pairs. Phase is important, of course. Odd numbers must match.
For 120V input, you parallel the two primaries. H1 and H3 and H2 and H4 to input line. For 240V input, you series. Connect H2 and H3, and line goes to H1 and H4.
For 12V output, X1 and X3, and X2 and X4 are are paralleled. For 24V output, X2 and X3 are connected, and output is between X1 and X4.
In the latter, the X2 and X3 junction is a center tap, and you have 12/24 three wire if desired.
Note KVA rating depends on both coils. Each coil is only 1/2 the KVA rating.
