The Quotes of The Day


Quote I

“A resistance that’s just based on a certain kind of … lack of imagination and understanding of anything that’s helpful to the human race, I’ve become very frustrated by that. But I can only work within my own bounds and say that, for me, it should be mandatory,” Actor Sean Penn (Not sure when he got his PH.D in Microbiology or any other science related degrees)


Quote II

“I’ll do anything I can to make things right, pay for any damages, fix anything I can, work for free. I’ll literally do anything to resolve this situation in the most positive way possible.” Melvin (Last name withheld)


Quote III

"This was a burglary where Ismail and Jabbar took advantage of an insecure building and arranged for the guns to be removed, resulting in a number of firearms potentially ending up in the wrong hands, with a number still at large and possibly on the country's streets."
Det Con Scott Davies, from the Armed Crime Team


Quote IV

"Our shelter system is full, and we are nearly out of money, staff and space. This can't continue." NYC Mayor Eric Adams

I'll sit back and eat my buttered popcorn with a cold beverage. GOP infighting increases.

House Republicans are calling on former President Donald Trump to reassess his support of Rep. Kevin McCarthy for House Speaker.
Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-Co.) and Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) told TPUSA’s Charlie Kirk why they are fighting back against a McCarthy speakership and called on Donald Trump to “take a look at what is actually being said in the House of Representatives right now.”

I guess I don't feel bad we don't have a Christmas Tree up. This couple makes up for that fact.

Dec. 19 (UPI) -- An Alberta couple filled their home with 133 decorated Christmas trees to raise money for a local animal shelter.

Tom Kereluk and Vince Jackman said they first filled their Red Deer home with Christmas trees and opened the doors to the public about 15 years ago, when they had 15 decorated trees in their home.

What good is a secondary education? 40% of students at liberal arts colleges now identify as LGBTQ, study finds

According to a recently released report by the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology, a center-right think tank that researches partisanship in academic and scientific fields, almost 40 percent of students at liberal arts colleges identify as LGBTQ.

The report, titled “Diverse and Divided: A Political Demography of American Elite Students,” stated:

Liberal arts colleges are the least politically diverse. Many have almost no conservatives, and thus very low viewpoint diversity. But they have high sexual diversity, at nearly 40 percent LGBT.

The data used to compile the report show that overall 23 percent of U.S. college students identify as LGBTQ, a percentage similar to that of a February 2022 Gallup poll which found that 20.8 percent of Generation Z identified as LGBT. (Perhaps the other 2.2% were “Q”s.)

After driving 4WD in snowy conditions, I feel the need for speed.

On one of the longest runways in the world, a highly modified Ford GT goes 310.8 mph — with barely enough room to stop before hitting the weeds.

Johnny Bohmer is claiming the title of fastest street-legal car in the world. His BADD GT, a 2006 Ford GT, topped 310 mph on the extralong runway at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

We all have to get along or do we? I know what side I am on.

The relationship between meat eaters and vegetarians can sometimes be a contentious one, with both sides holding strong beliefs about their diets. However, it is important for both groups to coexist peacefully and respect each other’s decisions, as everyday life is full of situations where they have to interact.

Recently, Redditor FlightStatus0 had a long fight and they needed to refuel themselves. So they got a burger and started eating it in their seat. However, their plane neighbor was a vegetarian, and the lady didn’t appreciate this one bit. Eventually, it got so bad that she even called the cabin crew to make them put away the meal!

Unsure of the way they handled themselves, FlightStatus0 told the whole story to the subreddit ‘Am I the [Jerk]?’ asking to evaluate their actions. Here’s what they wrote.

A meat eater picked up a burger for their long flight, but the vegetarian sitting next to them said she couldn’t bear the smell


I hope he had extra onion on that burger.

Jumping out of a perfectly fine at the moment aircraft has never been on "My Bucket List".

‘I’m about to die’ — Former Army paratrooper describes surviving a jump with a broken parachute

“I’m 21, I’m about to die; I think I’ve been living my life wrong.”

It was a perfect night for jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. The moon was full and the sky was clear over Fort Bragg, North Carolina that evening in 1997 as Army Spc. Justin Connaher and the rest of his company with the 82nd Airborne Division lifted off aboard a C-141 Starlifter. Like any good paratrooper, Connaher had checked his parachute countless times that day and now looked forward to a 30-second ride back to Earth.

I wonder what kind of parenting led to this "Spoiled Brat" Mess at The New School, a private university in Manhattan

Students at The New School, a private university in Manhattan, recently issued a demand letter as a strike over adjunct pay comes to a close.

Their demand letter includes “A” grades for the semester, tuition refunds for the strike period, and better cafeteria food.

Tuition for the semester ranges from $25,950 to $26,854 for the New York campuses' undergraduate students.

Additionally, the demand letter calls for “the resignations of President Dwight McBride, Provost Renee T. White, and the Vice President of Business and Operations Tokumbo Shobowale.” The President’s townhome, the demand letter says, should “be treated as a communal property of The New School and used for purposes determined by the non-administrative” employees.

In my day................

All that extra money that went to the IRS. It didn't help security one bit.

Confidential data of about 112,000 taxpayers inadvertently published by the IRS over the summer was mistakenly republished in late November and remained online until early December, the IRS disclosed Thursday.

Form 990-T data that was supposed to stay private had been taken offline but made its way back to the IRS site when a contractor uploaded an old file that still included most of the private information, a letter sent Thursday to congressional leaders said. The agency is required to make Form 990-Ts filed by nonprofit groups available online but is supposed to keep the form filed by individuals private; in both cases, the agency made that information available too.

I've never met Zion Clark but: I'm betting my next AoSHQ paycheck that he did not attend The New School, a private university in Manhattan. Where the Mantra is "We are spoiled!"

Zion Clark made a successful mixed martial arts (MMA) debut last night (Sat., Dec. 17, 2022) at a Gladiator Challenge event in Valley Center, Calif., as the wrestler with no legs scored a unanimous decision win over Eugene Murray.

Clark has a background in wrestling and that is exactly what he leaned on early into the fight. Murray wasn�t overly aggressive and it allowed Clark the opportunity to get inside and use a single leg to get in top position. It was impressive to say the least, even against an 0-4 fighter like Murray.

The ONT Musical Interlude & Wrapping Paper Emporium


&&&


***


Once upon a time the Mis. Hum. tax exemptions were this age. I can't imagine the angst of these parents. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

Mary Bourg said she searched the whole property looking for the girls with no luck.

"I just start like running around the whole property — six acres — and that's when I called [my husband] and said, 'They're gone'," Mary told CBS News.

The girls, ages 7 and 4, had wandered more than a mile from the property.

Police and neighbors searched for the girls for four hours, until someone heard Artemis barking.

Who says we can't have a Musical Interlude during a Genius Award Winner.

Working as a law enforcement officer in America in 2022 has to be a total nightmare. People have gone crazy.

That level of crazy was recently displayed at a Dallas, Texas-based Walmart when an unidentified woman confronted a police officer inside the store, near the entrance, and demanded he “respect” her while shouting obscenities and acting exceptionally aggressively.

If 50,000 volts of pulsing electricity is what she meant by “respect,” then, boy, oh boy, she got it.

34 almost 40 percent of students at liberal arts colleges identify as LGBTQ.

Peer pressure, and if you are white (particularly if you are male), you'd better find a way to get away from the bottom of the intersectionality pyramid, and claiming homosexuality is a way of doing that.

47 Okay fam - I am reading Roger Stone's book on the assassination of JFK. What with the insider leakage to Tucker, there is some question - WHY NOW?

Why is the JFK story - almost 60 years ago now - coming into common currency. Some think its a trap for Tucker to get him drawn in to kooky conspiracy stuff.

But I have come to this conclusion - its the Deep State rubbing our noses in it. A considerable portion of the facts laid out in Stone's book is undeniably true - I am sure it cannot ALL be true as there are contradictory things included. But the main theme is that the Deep State is real, and spectacular. Stone wrote this ten years ago before getting involved with Trump, so it has nothing to do with that.

The CIA is leaking to Tucker to make sure that we know they took out Kennedy and got away with it, and they will get away with taking out Trump, too. And to roll back all the denials and stuff of the past six decades? The gaslighting is part of the kink.

52 Eric Adams is a cocksucking little twat who is about as hard left as anyone in NYC government, except that he fakes it better. He is also a negro, so that makes the soft leftists feel guilty, so they will rubber-stamp anything he does, no matter how Stalinesque it is.

He dresses better than most of the other scumbags in NYC government, so I guess that is one small plus next to his name.

199 Doubling time in China may not be days anymore. Doubling time now possibly “hours” says some experts — let that sink in. R is hard to calculate if doubling is
-
So here's the thing. The end state in any kind of epidemic like this is herd immunity, which requires a certain percentage of your population to have been exposed. That percentage can't be wished away. The theory (I'm not really sure it worked) on flattening the curve was that if you took longer to get there, you could avoid overwhelming hospitals during the densest part of the event.

China, by going zero covid to sixty, is doing the opposite, which pretty much guarantees the most short term pain, and their people have been isolated for two years, so their immune systems are relatively atrophied.

And the CCP needs proof they were right all along. So, yeah, I'd bet on body count.

I remember back in late 2019 the short videos coming out of China showing people literally falling over in the street and then being carted away (to who knows where). Shortly after that, we had the great experiment, The COVID1984 Dempanic.

Now, just as we seem to be getting back to 'normal' (except for L.A.), China is putting out the 'we're all gonna die' videos again, just in time for winter and reinstatement of all the emergency decrees that have lapsed.*

China is going after our economy, Round 2, and our idiot politicians, in bed with the Chinese, will go along like a good role-laying hooker.

230 Think alpha was 0.025% fatality rate - but I think was IFR, not CFR. Ioannides at Stanford nailed it early, primarily based on Diamond Princess, but I haven't followed any of it since fall '20, having given up on the society and the world generally with respect to all this. And pretty much impossible that any "mitigation" changed rate of transmission or number of symptomatic infections or fatalities in China, since it did none of those things anywhere else. As calmly predicted by real epis and serious observers.

A few years back, I stopped doing my own oil changes. Too many vehicles at the time to keep up with it, used oil to dispose of, etc.

So, today I stopped by a Valvoline Quick-Change. I had left the keys on the seat of the car, in the bay, but the guy taking my info didn't know that, and asked for my keys. Curious, since they weren't doing anything yet, I asked why he needed them. 'To read the odometer' he said. I laughed and said, 'Well, just look at it'. The guy poked his head inside and said, 'Oh...I didn't know it was analog'. I couldn't stop myself, 'Mechanical', I replied.

IIRC about 20-25 million Chinese died during the Taiping Uprising in the mid-19th century. A student who had just failed his exams to join the Mandarins swooned, had a vision, and after waking told everyone he was the brother of Jesus Christ and destined to overthrow the emperor and bring Peace on Earth. It took about 10 years to take care of him. That's some statistics that bother than a few million dying of Wuhan Flu.

267 From what has been identified, the clot shot vaccine:
1) Doesn't prevent catching the disease
2) Doesn't prevent transmitting the disease
3) Does mitigate some of the sickness felt, similar to a therapeutic.

#1 and #2 means that you are a carrier and a spreader of COVID.

#3 means you are less likely to realize you even have COVID when you go about spreading it, versus staying the hell home when you're feeling sick.

I posit that Pfizer's vaccine has actively killed more people than helped, simply because those that were vaccinated were more likely to be around other people, who would then be around even more other people, who would eventually be in proximity to high-risk patients. Because they had the shot, and they felt okay, so what's the big deal?

Meanwhile, back in the USA:
" In 1942 there were only 2,970 work stoppages involving 840,000 workers, down drastically from the 4,200 strikes involving 2.36 million workers in 1941. By 1943 the number of strikes rose to over 3,700, with 1.98 million workers participating, and another 2 million workers engaged in some 5,000 strikes in 1944. A total of 3.5 million workers struck in 1945. In total, some 14,000 strikes and around 8.32 million workers (about a fourth of the workforce) struck during the four war years."

410 India-China War on the horizon?

https://tinyurl.com/mwfzd6u5

After two years of tense peace, hundreds of Chinese troops have encroached upon what India perceives to be its side of the border before being stopped in a battle involving branches, bricks and iron bars.

Now India's in uproar, convinced a looming war with China is all but inevitable.

In June, Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping proclaimed to the world he wants to present a "credible, loveable and respectable China" and "expand its circle of friends".

But, two-and-a-half years after a fatal clash between Indian and Chinese soldiers in the Galwan Valley, Ladakh, another brawl has erupted. This time it was over ownership of a remote, 5200m-high mountain peak at Yangtse, Tawang.

While 20 Indian and an unknown number of Chinese troops died in the 2020 clash, confused reports suggest this incident was less brutal -- though "as many as 30" Indians may have been seriously injured.


There's at least one country standing up to China. Unfortunately, it ain't us.

You do NOT buy John Deere. American Brand, a huge percentage of their catalog is Made in China. And their software licensing agreement basically means you only rent the tractor, with a lifetime maintenance contract with your local Deere Extrorsionship.

460 One does not relabel a compass.

The compass is "re-swing'd" by a certified professional.

All of the CHARTS though, are amended though, as to Magnetic North on their Compass Rose. If it ends up in a thirteen degree difference from mangetic to map, it is then upon the Navigator to account for the difference.

The re-certified compass will then be true to Magnetic North. Wherever it might then reside. And the corrections on the charts can vary wildly, from one longitude to the next.

466 Greetings! Quick question that's totally off topic.
Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly?

My web site looks weird when browsing from my iphone4.

Ever heard: "don't get high on your own supply"?

Words to live by!

468 Morning, all! Up extra early thanks to the attentions of a certain black cat who shall remain nameless (and unloved. At least for the current 5 minutes). Well, today is my last work day of the year. Maybe I can slide out a little early, hit the grocery, etc. Temps in the low 50s here, raining off and on. Tomorrow about 60 for a high, and then temps are going to tumble on Thursday and we will have a several-day freeze, the first in a few years. Denizens here are gonna panic.

469 Stock up, Wolfus! And stay off the roads until they thaw.

ExH and I lived Pensacola for a while & witnessed a freeze with bit of snow there one time... oh, my, gawd those people DID NOT know how to drive in it!!!!

Sean Penn made his living playing dress up and make believe. He's very good at it.

That does not equate to being an expert on geopolitics. Or world history. He is an actor. Nothing more.

I used to admire most Hollywood actors. That began to decay about the time Jane Fonda started to yell about her politics. Still most actors kept their mouths shut about their political leanings . . . until the Bush II years. Then they all started to go nuts and put that nuttery on display at every opportunity.

The rules are fairly simple. Reduce speed; leave extra following distance between you and the car ahead; and don't change direction suddenly, and don't expect to be able to stop as soon as you usually do. You can let a *little* air out of your tires to allow them more surface area in contact with the road, and thus a bit more traction.

Oh, and stay off the roads if the trip is not necessary.

472 Wolfus, I meant no insult to you!

YOU know how to handle the situation, yes. But there's all those OTHER folks who do not. That was my point...

No offense taken, JQ. Before I lived in Denver, I had little experience with such conditonsi. Though I always thought the rules would be fairly simple.

A front-wheel-drive car helps, but I drove in Denver for 4 years with RWD cars. A sandbag in the trunk helped in that case!

My birdbath STAYED frozen all day yesterday and I'm sure it will today as well.

476 My screen kept enlarging without, I thought, any input from me. Setting the "pinch to zoom" to "off" is an improvement.

And it was an arrogant nuttery, as if wealth and celebrity made their opinions better than those who paid for their wealth and gave them celebrity.

As for Hanoi Jane, I remember when that picture of her sitting at an NVA anti-aircraft gun appeared in my local newspaper. My ex had one of her workout videos. I told her to get rid of that crap. To hell with that commie scrunt.

480 Oh yeah, front wheel drive is great-- had one for over 20 years and loved it. Only problem was (lack of) ground clearance.

I have an AWD SUV now. Still put studded tires on for winter, though. Rather not drive when weather is bad but it's best to be prepared, imo.

481 19 degrees, light snow ... not sure if I am having a midnight snack or an early breakfast ... maybe it depends on whether or not I go back to sleep?
