Sunday Overnight Open Thread (1/28/24)
Quote I “I know folks may question my style, but don’t question my leadership,” Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson
Quote II “First of all, technology fails. These limiters are GPS based, or use cameras to read speed signs, or similar things. There are already incidents where people had limiters placed in their cars, and instead of complying, they ripped out road signs or cracked open the car and destroyed the device or the GPS unit," Automotive legal expert, Herschel Williams
Not only are the Commenters smart, they are funny and clever as well. Thank you.
PA Sen. John Fetterman may be a Democrat. But lately, I'm enjoying his style.
Pro-Palestinian Protesters Showed Up at John Fetterman's House. His Reaction Was Priceless. As we noted this morning, Sen. John Fetterman’s (D-PA) penchant for bucking the Democratic Party line might no longer be a one-off thing. It could be a trend. We now have a handful of issues where he is decidedly against the brass, and it’s refreshing. While I wish the GOP had supermajorities in both chambers, that’s not the case, and we need some Democrats to do stuff.
We really are boned.
U.S. Navy Drops High School Diploma, GED Requirement for Recruits — What Could Possibly Go Wrong No Diploma? No Problem! The U.S. Navy has again lowered enlistment requirements as it struggles to meet self-inflicted recruiting goals. We'll get to the latter in a bit. Spoiler: Perhaps Navy brass should have dropped Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) goals instead.
Up to 15 years of prison for a cop who fails to turn on body camera. How about the Tennessee legislature require district attorneys to fully prosecute gun charges? And while you are at it, make sure the judiciary can't agree to plea deals on those charges.
Just a few days after I published “It’s Never Enough,” that discussed the never ending demands on law enforcement, I discovered one of the most sinister demands that has taken the form of a legislative bill in the state of Tennessee. Before I discuss the most hateful and anti-police legislation attempts I have ever seen, you need some context on body cameras. Bad Intentions…Terrible Results The idea of body cameras seemed like a Star Trek episode a decade ago and today, 85% of the cops in America are wearing one and the industry boasts a 7.5 billion dollar value that is expected to double in five years. But the idea of demanding body cameras for law enforcement was not driven by a quest to make a multi-billion dollar industry by providing that “free” body camera attached to a lifetime of monthly data storage costs but rather the cries of racist cops.
It's noble you want healthy and sustainable food. Your actions will hurt your cause more than it helps. I want to smack them.
Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa (around 1503-19) was attacked at the Musée du Louvre, in Paris, today by environmental activists who threw soup over the world's most-recognised and most-viewed painting. The celebrated portrait, which has been protected by security glass for the past 70 years, was not damaged in the attack. In a video posted on X by the French news agency CLPRESS, two women members of the food protest group Riposte Alimentaire ("food response") are seen approaching the semi-circular wooden barrier in front of the painting, before throwing soup at it and climbing under the barriers. They stand in front of the canvas, and are heard demanding, in French, the right to "healthy and sustainable food", saying "our agricultural system is sick". Security guards are then seen erecting black screens in front of the portrait and its soup-splattered protective glazing. The “Salle des Etats”, the room housing the Mona Lisa, was evacuated but subsequently reopened

Alyssa Milano is spotted driving her $200k electric Porsche Taycan with son Milo to pet store - days after asking for $10k donation for his baseball team trip
Multimillionaire Charmed star was seen driving her fully-loaded and customized 2023 electric Porsche Taycan 4S just days after she was slammed on the Internet for sharing a GoFundMe for son's baseball trip
DailyMail.com learned the British Racing Green paint job is custom and costs $14k - more than the donation she asked for son Milo's trip; Milano defended herself, saying she bought 'uniforms for the entire team'
Alyssa, 51, and her 12-year-old son spent their Saturday afternoon cuddling up with rescue puppies at a PetSmart in Los Angeles - and it looks like they even took a couple home

Harming animals is a great way to become: Tonight's Genius Award Winner.
JANUARY 25--A West Virginia woman was charged with animal cruelty after she placed a pet gecko into a garbage disposal and turned the appliance on during a violent confrontation yesterday with her boyfriend, police report. After receiving an anonymous 911 call about a domestic disturbance at an apartment complex in Hurricane, a Charleston suburb, cops spoke with a man identified as a domestic battery victim in a criminal complaint. The man told cops that he and Hannah Jones, 19, “were going to have sex when they got home but it did not work out as planned.” A “verbal argument” followed, during which he called Jones a “slut,” the man stated. Jones, seen at right, allegedly then struck the man twice with a curtain rod, leaving him with a knot and laceration on his forearm.

A warehouse worker who entertained friends with his spot-on Elvis impersonations is now earning $500 a night as a tribute act after they sneaked a video of him to a showbiz agent. Danny Turney worked as a warehouse supervisor for 15 years in Bedfordshire, England, stacking and moving palettes of goods. During the COVID pandemic, he was singing in his kitchen while making a cup of tea and wife, Laura, discreetly recorded him, uploading it to Facebook.

The man told cops that he and Hannah Jones, 19, “were going to have sex when they got home but it did not work out as planned.” . . .
If you view the mugshot of the woman arrested, one could argue that having sex with the gecko and leaving it at that would have been a better outcome for all involved.

Easiest way to rig games is to tell the officials.which way to make judgement calls. Remember the Saints game against the Vikings after Katrina where the Saints won because suddenly it was open season on Farve with none of the usual Don't Hurt The QB calls? Chiefs HAD to get in. Do you realize how many non-NFL eyeballs will watch due to the chirpie pop girl?

There's a Riot Goin' On is the fifth studio album by American funk and soul band Sly and the Family Stone. It was recorded from 1970 to 1971 at Record Plant Studios in Sausalito, California and released later that year on November 1 by Epic Records. The recording was dominated by band frontman/songwriter Sly Stone during a period of escalated drug use and intra-group tension.

I'm not saying that the NFL wouldn't rig the game in favor of the Chiefs, because they clearly have a ton of reasons to do so. In this case, however, the Ravens lost that game all on their own. They had to keep their emotions out of the game to have a chance of winning this one, and they completely failed.

So 99% of everything I listen to is hard rock and heavy metal, but that 1% is an oddball assortment of mainstream pop shit that I heard when I were a lad, classical and...anime theme songs. And this here's a good 'un! That opening piano melody is a real winner and the whole song just grabs me. Freakin' excellent number and accessible to anyone as long as you don't mind lyrics that aren't in English.
But for those that are interested, this song serves as the end credit theme to the anime Higurashi: When They Cry - Sotsu.

The first thing I thought of was not the officials but that the coaches get a little sotto voce advice from the owner to make risky bafflingly weird calls in order to make the game more exciting and draw more viewers and “here’s a little something extra under the table” for your cooperation

Being that this is the internets I have no problem staying up front that I am a huge dork. There's a fantasy comic book series called Cerebus that ran from the late 70s to the early aughts. The main love interest is a chick named Jakka. Swift looks *EXACTLY LIKE HER*!!!!! It's so weird. Yes, I'm saying Tay Tay looks like a cartoon character.
Go to Bing and do an image search like "Cerebus the aardvark Jakka" and look. It's sooooo strange. Like the writer/artist predicted Taylor Swift.

However, we need DAs that are apolitical, but that is another topic.
I have seen enough videos of cops lying outright to fuck over people who stand up for their fifth and fourth amendment rights because their feelz are hurt. The cops know that the process is the punishment, and the cops rarely get their qualified immunity stripped for their bullshit.

Swift is 34, she has maybe 2-3 more years before she ages out of the bubble gum pop scene.

WW II. Hershey was mass produced to all soldiers and sailors to enjoy chocolate in the Pacific theater. Not sure about all of them, but Mars has its gourmet line Ethel M, which is pretty good.

It's been said for years that Swift is either asexual, or at best a "cold fish" where intimacy is concerned, and that that's why all her relationships have imploded. How accurate those stories are, I have no idea. She may well be, but I can think of a good many other reasons for her romantic fortunes.

While living in Cambridge MA I was accustomed to consuming Cadbury Milk Chocolate bars in the days when they were still thick. Late '74 or early '75 the flavor changed. They became sweeter but not in a good way, too sweet, and something else. I suddenly discovered that these were no longer made in Ireland but by Hershey somewhere here. For a few months I was able to get Irish Cadbury by scouring shops in Cambridge but eventually I must have eaten all the residual imported stock.

Her people, and maybe the people in the media, don't seem to get it that if they keep shoving her at the public to this degree, a lot of people will get sick of her. Seeing someone's face that much, and having to hear every little detail about what they are doing, just gets annoying after a while. If her people are smart, they will dial it back.

So 99% of everything I listen to is hard rock and heavy metal, but that 1% is an oddball assortment of mainstream pop shit that I heard when I were a lad, classical and...anime theme songs. And this here's a good 'un! That opening piano melody is a real winner and the whole song just grabs me. Freakin' excellent number and accessible to anyone as long as you don't mind lyrics that aren't in English.
But for those that are interested, this song serves as the end credit theme to the anime Higurashi: When They Cry - Sotsu.

The music style reminds me of Nana Mizuki, or May'n. They have less of the "counter-counter-soprano anime voice." Links to Nana, since I'm more of a fan of hers.

The music from the original Higurashi series was pretty good, too. Eiko Shimamiya. A lot more electronic than Missing Promise, but it fits the show.

Well, this January is now officially the 2nd wettest Jan on record. The record was 10.63" set in 1906. GSP just clocked in at 10.16". That fellow at the airstrip's station recorded 9.92", and my cousin has 10.03" total, both within a mile of me.
Normal for Jan (past 20 years) is 3.62", and the mean over the entire record is 4.23".
Records go back to the mid-1880s, but it's a bit spotty and consistent daily and monthly data didn't happen until the early 1900s. So, you can say we've got a record of 120 years.

That D.E.P. got me the "old" G.I. Bill, and also, something which I have *never* claimed, that of the "Viet Nam Era Veteran" on my DD-214, and corresponding V.A. benefits.
I was never within 8,000 miles of the place, why should I draw benefits from the 80k+ who died there, and the hundreds of thousands of other who served, many wounded?
My enlistment was for one reason, and one reason only. To try to get my sick and dying mom on the rolls, as my dependent. Alas, as I couldn't prove 50% of her income, this failed. And, she died barely two years into my one hitch.
I didn't re up for another. Carter years. Who wanted to risk four more years of *that!?*

In 1998 while on vacation to see family in San Diego, I drove down to check in with my old Navy Recruit training facility only to find it completely closed down. I could still see our land locked training ship, the USS REPOSE still sitting in her place as she was in 1978 but with heavy tractors and excavators tearing up the landscape around her. I'm pretty sure she went to the scrap pile shortly thereafter.

The first time I went to sea was on the USS Guadalcanal (LPH-7)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Guadalcanal_(LPH-7)
Our First Sergeant had shipped out to Vietnam as a private on this ship in his first deployment.
I still have a couple of LPH7 Zippo lighters.

There was a standing joke about that. Goes:
"I was walking down the sidewalk, in the rain. There was an Army recruiter standing under an awing at the recruiting station. As I walked by, he said, 'Son, why don't you come in out of the rain?'
I was in out of the rain for the next 3 years."

XH1 & I at least got to visit Florida, Japan, Hawaii... all from 'home-of- record' Oregon.
Xhubby asked me to fill out some questionnaire thingy, while we were in FL... all kinds of crazy "what would you do" under weird (foreign) circumstances. Guess that's how USN decided we should go to Japan instead of Yurrup?

The first evening Mawdi Grass parade near where I work will run Friday evening. It lines up on the road I usually drive home, so I'll need to take an alternate, and slower route. Grrrr. Fortunately there will be only three such disruptions the succeeding week, and then the whole mess will be over.

Not this week or next, but the one after. Feb. 13. Considering the party substances flying around here, that's a good nickname for it!
My last, I truly hope. The event, the weekend before, and so many locations around this city have good/bad memories for me re: Mrs. Wolfus No. 2. It's like Tom Hanks in Sleepless in Seattle after the death of his wife, wanting to leave their city because he almost expects her to come around the corner every minute.

I recall that you thought a 2-story would be fun for Teh Thugz... and a reply came re: stairs =/= good for old age.
Well, when hubby got So Bad, I had a stairlift installed for him. No tub/shower on our main floor, so it was *that* or *move*... it was only $4k. Worth every penny! Cheaper and faster than adding a main floor bath!

I'm in great shape regarding stairs. Of course that could always change. My concern in hot weather is that the upstairs is always warmer than below, and even with central air I might have to add a window unit to my bedroom and/or study if they're both up there.
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at January 29, 2024 02:47 AM (omVj0)
We have portable units, one up, one down. They take up floor space, yes, but are very efficient and stow away in winter while we *close the damned windows* LOL

That sounds better. I didn't know there were portable units for home use. Better, I'd think, than dismounting the window unit in October in prep for winter, and then you get a sudden string of hot days.

It sure beats lifting those heavy things into & out of the window openings! And then there's the window unit mounting hardware too... ugh.
We got a couple of these (link goes to Hdepot):

My sump pumps are working overtime, but they are working very hard right now and I am grateful for that. We have had so much rain. I will most likely get a letter from my electricity provider scolding me for using so much more fuel than my neighbors. I don't know what their problem is, bills are always paid on time.
