Saturday Overnight Open Thread (9/11/21)

Saturday Overnight Open Thread - Part I


north-tower-911-photographs (1).jpg


Photographs of the carnage on September 11, 2001. Let us never forget.

***

Facing death, he didn't go down without a fight. Todd Beamer, Let's roll.

Who is Todd Beamer? The hero of Flight 93 who almost certainly saved the US Capitol
His exhortation of ‘Let’s roll!’ became a rallying cry

***

Thank you President Trump.


***

I remember September 11th, 2001 as if it were yesterday. And I remember who did this and why they did it. The United States of America with its warts and blemishes is still the greatest country that God has ever put on the earth.

A moment of silence and reflection.

Saturday Overnight Open Thread - Part II

The Saturday Night Joke

I was sitting at a long stoplight yesterday, minding my own business,patiently waiting for it to turn green even though there was no on-coming traffic.
A carload of scruffy-bearded, young men shouting Anti-American and BLM slogans with a half-burned American Flag duct-taped on the trunk of their car and a "Remember George Floyd" slogan spray painted on the side stopped next to me. Suddenly they yelled, "Defund the police." and took off before the light changed.
Out of nowhere an 18-wheeler came speeding through the intersection and ran directly over their car, crushing it completely and killing everyone in it.

For several minutes I sat in my car thinking to myself, "Man... that coulda been me!" So this morning, bright and early, I went out and got myself a job as a truck driver. (H/T Blake )

One of the Fabulous Mrs. Mis. Hum's greatest attributes is that they she is maintenace free. Unlike this broad.

A girlfriend drew up a 17-page ‘relationship contract’ with her boyfriend just two weeks after they met on Tinder – asking that he pay for date nights, buy flowers twice a month and work out five times a week.

Annie Wright met her boyfriend Michael Head in October last year and after deciding he was ‘her person’ they agreed to be exclusive.

Determined to make the relationship work after having her ‘boundaries crossed’ in a previous relationship, 21-year-old Annie joked they should write down their ‘terms and conditions’ for dating – and law student Michael eagerly agreed.

Shortly after, risk management and insurance student Annie and Michael, 23, sat down and read out their own terms – including asking for ‘a romantic gesture once every two weeks’ and ‘working out at least five times a week alone’.

Doctor warns against holding in farts and says it can have grim consequences
Doctor Karan Rajan has shared some key fart facts on TikTok, including the gross reason you should never try to hold back from letting rip – no matter how rude it might seem

Society tells us that breaking wind in public is generally bad manners – but did you know it can actually be worse to hold your farts in?

She might lack confidence but she rocks with a Genius Award.

Utah woman loses hair, dignity, confidence in phone scam convincing her to shave head


SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — Megan Randolph is mad. And devastated. And in her own words, her confidence has been "rocked."

Randolph, a model from Layton, Utah, is the victim of a scam. But the scam artist wasn't after her money so much as her dignity — and her hair.

"Oh yeah, I haven't left the house, I don't plan on leaving the house until I can figure something out and I know that sounds silly," the now completely bald Randolph said.

16 We have forgotten.

At school one teacher wanted her students to walk 9 miles to remember 9/11. They did not know why they were walking. Cause I asked. And no, I was not invited to tell my 9/11 experience.

I calculated that I walked 5 miles near the Pentagon that day, to check on a coworker in the Patent Office, and another 4 miles in Reston to see TV coverage at her place when she finally got home. (No TV for me since 1977.)

It changed my life. I married the woman I walked to check on in Crystal City.

The man on the radio said Rush was safe on the ground in Florida. Um, what?

Then he talked about refineries being shut down in Mexico. What the h is going on?

Then he re-capped: "The World Trade Centers are gone!"

I did not yet know the toll, I did not know how, but I immediately knew who. Enraging! The bastards said they would do it.

I told the kids, this is in a sense your Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor to VJ day was so few years. Who could have known this new 'war' would last decades and go nowhere. So far.

We who were there have not forgotten. It is very clear in my memory. I lost people I knew, including a helpful single mom & across the street neighbor who was on the plane that hit the Pentagon. She was hot, Venezuelan, and totally out of my league. She left her son orphaned.

But the wider culture has forgotten. A "religion of peace" is out of touch with reality. Worse, it is surrender to barbarians. But that is where we are today, esp. in the school plantations - paid baby-sitting.

DC surrendered us to them, with more AF military aged men being settled here without a care. And we must mask, vax, and shelter in place.

54 I owe much of my current self to what happened that day. Shortly after that I began reading Robert Spencer's "Jihad Watch" blog to understand Islam. I have learned much about this so-called religion of peace.

In reality it is a religion of pure evil, that sucks the souls of men into a vortex of sin and degradation. And yet still not as evil as the Left.

58 Once upon a time, I was a regular commenter under another nic. Once upon a time, I had friends in gray boxes.

That all has changed; the HQ has become a place of dissent and censorship, just like much of the MSM. There is a cob who attacks people and is stifling free speech in the name of "threadjacking" on open threads. During the week, the news threads are filled with Twitter links and news stories that are a day late and a dollar short, as they say. The longest threads are attacks against Never Trumpers.

Maybe the HQ will change in the future; I don't know. I, like many other regulars, have just faded away. I hope your new regulars, the ones who complain and expect the cobs to be their enforcers, like the new HQ. As a regular since 2004, there's really no reason for me to stay. I've made friends in meat world, and no longer want to even read a blog that censors and harasses commenters.

He was probably singing Men of Harlech that morning as he died, right after saving the 3000 people he was responsible for at Morgan Stanley.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, by doing what he's doing he cheapens his own legacy. It also gives people like me who were under the impression that it was all about the realpolitik even more reason than we already had to give zero shits about the fate of the Republican Party.

86 A Thousand Kicks In The Nuts for anyone who calls 9/11 a "tragedy". A tragedy is a misfortune, an accident an event of nature, failure of engineering, even careless driving and such. A "tragedy" is worthy of maudlin rememberences, treacled tales and all manner of mournful saccharine as to make diabetic even a fence post.

No, what 9/11 was was an ATROCITY. An, evil, hateful act perpetrated by evil, hateful goatfucking 7th century vermin, who would have to crawl up civilizations' walls to be even as noble as the goats they defile.

An ATROCITY is an act with one true and correct response. VENGENCE! Destroy them utterly, completely, finally and for all time. Shoulda been done then, ain't too late to do it now. Except for the Traitor in Chief squatting in the Oval where he has no right to be. We need an American President. We need TRUMP.

The simple fact that so, so many will spend their eternity separated from God and Jesus makes me pity them more than I can ever hate them.

113 TY, Mis Hum. Update on the pups the military (appears to be) forcibly released at the Kabul airport: Charlotte, Kabul Small Animal Rescue, had chartered flights for her dogs and cats: rescues, pets of the evacuated and contract working dogs abandoned by their "owners." TBN refused to permit the cats to enter the airport. After multiple days of begging military/state to give her charter permission to land, the military was leaving. Donahue ordered her pups released. She stayed and is working with her staff of locals to return to the airport as often as the TBN will permit to rescue her pups. Many, she knows, are dead. Puppies missing mama dogs and mama with no pups. She was shown pictures of some of their atrocious deaths, but she keeps trying to rescue. She has been able to rescue one of the working dogs and there are others, still alive, that she believes airport staff has there. That this woman is forced into this dangerous and fearful position bc our military and state department refused to permit her charters to land in Jordan, where the pups could quarantine and be safe, is abhorrent. Everyone should know this woman's story and I hope she lives to tell it.

Gore would have been Clintonian and only been out for himself. We may not have ended up with the other cursed name. But to equate those of us who support President Trump, and who question the legitimacy of the election, with those moved by the spirit of the devil, in fact, saying we are moved by the spirit of the devil, is beyond decent. We have been handed over to evildoers, why, I don't know. But Mr President Bush, how dare you equate American patriots with terrorists. How dare you. I am finished supporting you, you have sided with perverts, terrorists, and evildoers. Begone from us I say. Begone!

164 To me 9-11 was the confirmation that the US government is near completely worthless.
We pay people to detect these kinds of attacks. We pay them fortunes to do it.
And they never do. They get everything wrong, every time. All of them.
So, return on investment is highly negative.
Makes one suspect they are working for the other side. Because if they weren't, they would occasionally get something right, even if by accident.
All the 3 letter agencies are crap, firmly in the LIABILITY column.

9/11 retributions is what I'm waiting for.

I get that. I don't disagree. Vengeance belongs to the Lord, His judgment is much greater than ours can ever be. So many things in this world that deserve justice and will never get it. We have to trust that eventually true justice is given. Because otherwise we make ourselves miserable.

168 My mother's response to the 9/11 attacks, when she was living in Maryland near DC, related to an episode when she was 12 years old. She lived in northern NJ. Her Dad came home and put the radio on, said "something terrible is happening." It was the original broadcast of HG Wells War of the Worlds. She knew when she went to bed that it wasn't real, and felt like the attacks couldn't be real. Living here a thousand miles away made it a TV event, not up close and personal like it was for the rest of my family.

173 Honestly, I haven't found the supervision here all that onerous. Not since 2016, when there was a lot of acrimony during the Republican primaries. Things did get a bit tetchy in here back then, but not recently. Some sites have a real hair trigger when it comes to banning; Vox Day, when he had comments, would kick people out over just about anything, and boast about his high IQ while doing it. I guess the balance here just suits me, because I don't notice much heavy-handedness, and it's a relief not to have to wade through surly muttering about Jews and Freemasons.

188 Okay, my dad was a volunteer (reserve) cop after his AF career. Went to the cop academy and all. Never earned a dime from it; an unpaid position. He might have had some immunity from traffic tickets, that's about it.

So. One night, he's assigned to a squad of 4 cops to provide coverage for a Charlie Daniels concert held out in the middle of Redneckville. That's a good chunk of MS, btw. And one of his fellow officers waded into the crowd to break up a fight.

Bad move. He got surrounded and was getting a pretty severe ass-whooping. So dad went to his rescue. Bad move #2. He proceeded to get some ass-whooping, v2.0.

He managed to get his gun clear and fire a shot in the air, to buy some room. The other two cops waded in, with guns out and batons whirling, and all 4 got out of the crowd. Then they called in the reinforcements, the venue got shut down, and no one died. The end.

I was in the woods of SC a week before I graduated from Army basic training on 9/11/01.

Only those that had kin in NYC or DC were bussed back to garrison that day. The rest of us stayed in the woods until that Thursday when we road-marched back to the barracks and finally saw for ourselves what went down in DC, NYC, and PA.

And I can't shake the feeling that all of those soldier died and were wounded for nothing. We would have been better off descending into heartless apathy, than the brief moment of greatness we showed. At least those kids would be alive.

Today is my 12th day in a row working on a proposal. I was asked yesterday to pull us out a giant ditch, as one of our teammates (from within the same company) was kicked off. And I'm getting it done, because I'm damn good at my job.

I was just a lowly E-5 through three deployments to Iraq between 2003 and 2009.

For the longest time, I too thought I didn't make any difference.
Until 27 soldiers told me otherwise.

You make a difference, it just may take years, even decades to see the results.

240 Went to a celebration of life for my aunt in Illinois a couple weeks ago. Word from the immediate family is masks were required at church. I don't mask my grandkids, so called the church to be sure of the rules. Masks are not required, I was told. So we went without. We were the only people without masks. In the visitation time, in another room, none of my "family" would speak to me because I wasn't masked. If they had asked me nicely to put one on I would have. But no, better to shun me. This is not surprising, they're a bunch of asses. But still.

I like that in older art there is a sort of coded language that you can learn. Dogs = faithfulness, so a barking, angry dog is warning about some hanky-panky going on. Books, certain musical instruments, flowers of different kinds, open windows, all are giving out secret messages that you can decipher if you know the conventions.

Yeah. Hard not to feel this way. The train's out of control and there's not much we can do anymore.

The only thing I can think of is lean on our state parties to try to ram through an Article V convention...

...and once we get it, just use it to pull the plug. Pass an Amendment of Dissolution and dissolve the Union.

It's not something we should do lightly, but the Constitution is no longer in force, we are ruled by an illegal junta, and the USA exists in name only. The Federal Government is now the greatest threat to our liberty. A legal means of dissolving it is worth considering, even as difficult as it would be to pull off.

We might even convince the other side that they want it - just tell Californians and New Yorkers that they won't have to care what Texas thinks anymore.

10% hydrochloric acid (often sold as "muriatic acid"), will dissolve most hard water stains in toilets. Hardware store acid is about 30%. Just pour a little of the concentrate into twice its volume of water to get to ten percent.

Always add acid to water; never add water to acid. Heat is evolved when mineral acids, like hydrochloric, sulfuric, and nitric are mixed with water. So much heat, that small droplets of water falling into concentrated acid can boil, and scatter droplets of acid. Trickle the acid from the bottle into the container of water, stirring with a plastic utensil, and you will be quite safe.

They had previously seen September 11 as a day of infamy - the 1683 Battle of Vienna when King John III Sobieski and his Winged Hussars broke the back of the Ottoman Empire. The Ottomans lingered on for centuries afterwards, but were never such a threat to central Europe ever again.

323 In all seriousness, the Taliban themselves don't do international terrorism--they're basically the Islamic version of KKK hillbillies, so they just lock down their turf while letting their 'brothers' in AQ and such set up training camps to do whatever they want. I've no doubts that the combination of Afghanistan squarely back in musloid hands and a total limp-dick administration in DC will engender some more large scale terrorist attacks, but it'll take them some time to get set up for it.

332 Forgot the point of my historical post while writing I hate that. My point was that because the Islamists saw it as a day of infamy, that's why they chose September 11 for the attacks.

If they attack again, it'll be the anniversary of some other perceived slight. They probably feel like they've balanced the books on that one.

I could be wrong, just my two cents.

One line that's really dated is "The Taliban are inbred illiterate hillbillies, and they're so stoooooopid!" We've got to quit thinking that. They're NOT stupid. They've played their cards extremely well, and they haven't wasted the last 20 years like the West has. They were already posting sarcastic memes online before we'd even finished scrambling out of the country with our pants down around our ankles. They're savvy and they know some psychological warfare, and we underestimate them at our peril. I didn't expect any explosions today because they're nowhere near having exhausted all the advantages our scrambled departure from Kabul gave them.

First the gravity feed airbrush would not shoot paint but would happily push air. So had to take it completely apart and clean everything with a good soaking, Q-tip, and a pipe-cleaner. So it shot paint again.

Fine. Next loaded it up with acrylic flat coat. Because still not sure airbrush is 100% shoot the Bf 109F-4/Trop first and everything seems to work. So reload and the Bf 109G-6/AS is next. Things going swell until I get to the tail and airbrush decides to flood the whole model. Hastily wiped down the kit with a paper towel soaked in isopropyl. Now waiting for everything to dry before trying again, which means tomorrow evening.

393 Crying on and off all morning reading stories of 9/11. Um, I mean there's a lot of smoke in the air here from forest fires. Yeah, fires, that's it.

For some reason the one that always gets me is the story of Lt. Heather Penney (even though she survived. ) Was pilot of of the two ANG F16s scrambled to try to down United Flight 93 before it could reach DC. Neither of the fighters was armed and their plan was to ram the passenger plane kamikaze-style to bring it down. Ironically her father was a commercial airline pilot for United on the east coast though he was not flying that day.

403 Weirdest book thing in my world is the Hunnicutt US armour series. They were released what, 30-40 years ago and for some reason whoever owns the rights won't reprint them except as pretty pricey softcover versions. The originals go for silly money on Ebay. I would think it would be a better return to reprint them at normal hardcover prices as the Ebay prices show demand..but they don't.

Case in point P.C. Hodgell. Third book about Jame, Seeker's Mask, was only published by a tiny Oregon independent book publisher that only made 500 hard cover copies. So yeah shelled out $100 for it, it came with Hodell's and Charles de Lint's autographs.

Then a few years after I got it, Meisha-Merlin and later Baen Books picked up Hodgell's works and reprinted the first three books and Hodgell then wrote more sequels.

I feel ya, Anna. Haven't modeled for about 10 years because stuff happened that I enjoy but it sucks up all the free time I used to model in, but airbrushes always gave me fits too. They seem simple enough, and I always used to clean them thoroughly and use the same paints and mix them with thinner the same...but sometimes they would work and sometimes they wouldn't and I could never figure out why. And you just can't dump them for some things...like the mottling on the Luftwaffe schemes. There's really no other way to do those

That might be the plan, and it might sound sensible on the theory that China won't be as weak with them as we were (as far as ROEs go), but they've managed Russia and several other empires over the millenia. If things go sideways, I'd put money on muslims over commies every day of the week.

500 For all of the arguments regarding the 10th Amendment and the proper role of government, there's one I'm surprised I haven't heard yet. Precedence.

In pretty much every form of law, a part of the document written later takes precedence over something written earlier. A contract amendment or waiver agreed to by all parties will modify or nullify the original terms, for instance.

The 10th Amendment, being an amendment, being at the end of the document, shouldn't be constrained by the Interstate Commerce Clause and General Welfare Clause, which came earlier. As an Amendment, it alters the original text of the document - not the other way around. The original document does not alter the amendment.

This isn't some esoteric piece of legal arcana, this is basic order of operations stuff that any first-year law student should have got.

Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at September 11, 2021 10:40 PM (6bS/2)


Vertical stab would take out the rudder and remove a good bit of yaw stability. A decent pilot could still manage with roll control and pitch. I'm sure that would have been it for them though. The most effective would be to take out the horizontal. All conventional aircraft with positive camber wings require a force couple from a canard or tail to counter the inherent negative CM0. Any significant reduction in tail downward force and the aircraft pitches over and breaks up. 747 is cruciform and has a bit beefier tail than T-tails like C-5.

641 This year I find that I can't read the commemorations. I can't look at the pictures or the videos. Too much comes flooding back.

I was on the JFK that morning. We had *just* left the dock and were in a channel in which we couldn't turn around and go back. We were stuck heading to sea with no munitions on board (we had 4 missiles, 2 training, 1 telemetry, and one dummy, iirc), no aircraft, originally intended to be running carrier quals for pilots.

Everyone on board was angry that we had no way to shoot bad guys or defend anyone. Everyone was eager to go, get in the fight (if there were to be more attacks). The young seamen, petty officers, officers... all desiring to exercise their outrage at this attack on America. All seeing it as exactly that. Not a one I encountered (admittedly I didn't talk to all 2,000 on board) thought America deserved it or that it was because of our foreign policy. They knew it was because someone hated us because we were Americans - we were free and not under their thumb and that rankled them.

And, then, as time rolled on, and the ugliness of some Americans came out... and here we are now. We have fascists in charge where the technocrats haven't filled in, we have people openly espousing their hatred of all things good and right and American - including our 'leaders'.

And people wonder why I feel like we should literally fight? I tire of our fellows who _call_ themselves Americans but don't truly believe in it, who want to turn us into something horrible and rotten and evil. Why shouldn't I want to....
I'll say no more, as a guest here and not wanting anyone to get in trouble.

Good Night, fellow morons and 'ettes. May God somehow smile upon us once again as a nation and see fit to remake this as the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Jagmeet was a lawyer before entering politics. I just searched for the ads I found offensive, and could not see them on EweToob. I wonder if they are keeping them off to avoid hurting his chances. In several ads, he speaks of "billionaires" claiming they don't pay their fair share of taxes. Scapegoating is what it is.

672 Used a old desktop humidor. Re humidified it first. Added a small cedar cigar box with added cedar chips. Wet down said chips w\ bourbon and vanilla. Added cigars. Nicaraguan factory rejects that had a Connecticut wrapper..... Cheap no brand from famous cigars. Also some drew estate factory smokes.... Maduro wrapper. Big 60 ring gauge bairley smokable. Infused for three weeks rotating every few days. Removed wiskey add boveda packs to reduce humidity from really wet cigars... 80% rh back to 72 percent.

Next time i will dry box the cigars first to start dryer. Maybe 50% or so. Note cigars never touched the infusion liquid. Just soaked in humidity.


The cedar box i used was an old 10 count box with a slding glass lid that i removed. A digital hydrometer helps a lot.

I have a cedar cigar box I picked up from the shop this week, currently "seasoning" it with a shot glass of distilled H20 sitting in there for a week, then I'll keep the cigarillos and small flavored ones in there, probably with a Boveda pack, 72RH.

I haven't caught the whole conversation, but I gather there is a Conflict rumbling about. I see Morons taking 'sides.' It's like Iron Man vs Captain America. Good guys v good guys. Mostly. But less Jack Kirby.

Do I want to side with Grumpy Cob who needs a refresher in Dale Carnegie, regardless of the validity of his complaints, or the Crabby Moron who needs to know when to take a hint and dial it back, regardless of the important information to which he's linking? Decision, decisions. The guy with the Cob powers over the semi-incognito flouncer? Hmmm...

Whataya think, did I snarkily characterize the conflict, mellowly play up both North and South as Americans, or just alienate everybody with my authentic frontier gibberish? Seriously, though, "can't we all just get along?" *King-size™ hickory shampoo*

696 Cigars are new to me. Graduated from the desktop humidor into Tupperware. Very much easier to keep humidity. Boveda is your friend. Spanish cedar from cigar boxes or bought as thin veneer sheets helps too. (Amazon or a good shop will have it) digital hygrometers help much. The cheap ones are almost always off but will let you see trends. Join a cigar club that sends you new sticks because your tastes will change. Explore new stuff. I like my smokes a bit dry. Some where around 67 %. Perdomo is my favorite brand. Moderation is good 1 or 2 cigars a day bring remarkably few health problems. I love a good smoke and good bourbon or scotch. Coffee pairs well too.

I'm watching "9/11: Four Flights", a new one.

We were flying that day, from Atlantic City to Chicago. Were fairly near Flight 93 over PA t some time. Landed in Chicago just after the second plane hit, it was spooky, we had no idea what happened.

Posted by: Farmer at September 12, 2021 12:57 AM (55Qr6)

701 USN, thanks. Somewhat new too. Boveda for sure. If I do the tupperdor, will also put in a cedar tray. For now trying to support a local store by buying most sticks there, only online when they don't have them. Mild, mostly, but already stumbled across some "medium" that are very easy and flavorful. Have puffed them on/off for years, very low numbers, often connected to golf, always just got the cheapest bundles/seconds. Now dipping into the more premium side, trying various kinds. Looking into the pairing aspect now. Coffee and bourbon seem like naturals.

A fascinating video on the topic (growing tobacco and producing cigars) was done by a Brit website and Davidoff a few years back, on UToob (look for From Seed to Smoke). Very interesting.

741 Screw Dr. Karan Rajan. Mao said at a party meeting once: "If you have to fart, fart! You will feel much better for it."

742 714 Wow. A hate filled racist Communist who is only upset that more people weren't murdered on 9-11-01. It's best not to scold us on history since you yourself absolutely refuse to study it. If you did, you would't be a hate filled racist Communist.

743 Contrast and compare this video with ANY of bidens on that day. Prez applesauce for brains is surrounded by other elitists and security....and is heckled by those in attendance.
