Tongue Nor Heart Cannot Conceive Nor Name ONT
Hello, and welcome to the Groundhog Day ONT! I know a lot of you swear by Punxsutawney Phil, but I prefer to watch the ceremony from France. This morning Parisian Pierre emerged from his home, turned around and saw his own Château. In any event, pull up a chair, and make yourself at home. Anyone want a drink?

But I got into it. Phil Connor's spiritual struggle and character development is so well done.
One thing about Bill Murray is that you usually feel like you're watching that zany or snarky guy from Scrooged, Ghostbusters, or What About Bob. Tonight I was most impressed when Phil was telling Rita how much he valued the day they'd had together, ending with his profession of love. Murray really did serious, sincere well. Almost like he wasn't Murray for that moment.
It's like watching Harpo's clownish face vanish when he sits down at the harp. I think that was the best new thing I got out of the movie this time.

Most of the collection went to the university, but he was allowed to donate some to the local science museum in my town.
We would take a class field trip there every other year in grade school. I would always tell everyone on the bus that I had an actual display at the museum ... to a great amount of skepticism.
They were always gobsmacked to see the fossils (they are very cool), and then to see the name Pillage Idiot right there on the display card!

Good to see you posting. I trust all is well with your clan.
We have way more drama than that amidst our leadership. Our Superintendent is on forced admin leave with a retention vote next Tuesday. Do not know if it is a coup because he is a white male, or for real reasons.
Busses, not so much drama.
I had to blaze some trails through a series of drifts on Township roads, but we were never stuck. Bus tires are stout. We did get 6 times the snow so far compared with last year's total.

I assume it was weather related, but man. I can't imagine how many hundreds of millions of dollars in car repair the potholes "stimulate" each year.

One of Pooky's Dutch grandpas today: "If [Pooky's nephew] wants to tour a Baptist college this spring, let me know, because someone I know is a retired Baptist pastor and he gets the monthly Baptist magazine, which means I get it when he's done with it."
Note: We are not Baptists, no one in that part of Pooky's family has ever been a Baptist, and we all go to a denomination that believes in infant baptism, not adult baptism. And I will bet you an almond patty that Pooky's grandpa either passes on that magazine to someone at the retirement home or saves it somewhere.

That's a nope. Many Amish communities allow the women to wear colored, but subdued dresses.
Some, hold onto your straw hats, even allow short sleeve dresses.
But, never, ever, sleeveless. So, that would be how to ID a goth Amish woman.

Is it an R rated show? If so, the part where the A-Man and his crew get totally ripshit drunk and he shanks a fool should be quality entertainment.

I think all the action would be multiclass bard/ranger. Work on your pecker's charisma, give him a little harp for casting. Then take advantage of the ranger's exploration, awareness, and dexterity distance/aim perks.

I am limited in what I can discuss in open forum, but I find it astonishing that the local sheriff has not even bothered to set foot on the site where the cadaver dogs went nuts, while he is waiting for the lead member of the volunteer search team dithers over when to take the next steps (GPR was supposed to happen back inn November) Sheriff hasn't even taken a look around. We are looking at other options, but so far no luck.

No. We are on the third one. Two previous sheriffs and one undersheriff are now deceased. The ineptitude, disinterest, and sheer passivity are inexplicable. Current sheriff says he is waiting on the GPR guy. GPR guy (from out of state) says he is waiting for an opening in his spring schedule, so I'm guessing mid-July. we do have a plan B.

When delivered 12 months from now, the buses will offer Asheville residents and visitors a modern, zero-emission, ecologically-friendly bus ride.
2023 -- ASHEVILLE, N.C. (WLOS) — The city of Asheville's purchase of five electric buses in 2018 has turned into a multi-million-dollar loss. The buses have been broken or unable to run because of software and/or mechanical issues, making them an expensive and disappointing purchase, according to city maintenance and transportation staff.
At least $5 Million.

Sure, we are aware of that. If you looked at the data I am referring to you would conclude that a GPR search is not really needed. What is needed is someone to put shovel in dirt in an area about 3 meters by 1 meter. That will happen, but I don't want to risk tainting possible evidence collection and prosecution, so we are trying to go with the sequence the sheriff has bought into. That is however a time-limited offer. At some point the archeology team and the sheriff will have abdicated their control over the scene and it will revert to the landowner and us.

Formerly owned by a person of interest who has left the area. Currently owned by a man who heard the story of the curious disappearance from a neighbor, found our website online and contacted us out of the blue offering to help. That led to the cadaver dog search (in October '23) of a property that had never been searched before for reasons related to the sheriff's office long-standing history of indifference. The owner has been great, but I can tell his patierce with the slow pace is wearing thin.

The allegation surmises that she mis-appropriated (stoled-ed!), no small amount from Federal Grants, which were given to her agency to accomplish certain Prosecutorial Goals upon which Uncle Fed might smile.
When said funds might've been involved in the her Pay for Paramour Peniliey Penetrating her Pussitudinous Pussay Program.

An analogy - EOD does not dig. If it's exposed they will deal with it. If called to 'clear' a site they look around, if they see nothing it is cleared.
Seen where EOD got called three times to the same residential yard. Former WWII military site. Homeowners were putting in a clothes line. Two posts. Found something within the first posthole. EOD "cleared" it. Second posthole found... rinse.. repeat.
GPR is accually 'affordable'... ~$1000.
Have them survey the area.
Pothole it and see if something sketchy is found.
Then it has to be investigated.

Back nearly fifty years ago, Colorado School of Mines and the University of Denver were members of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association, along with Michigan Tech, University of North Dakota, University of Minnesota, University of Minnesota-Duluth, University of Wisconsin, Notre Dame, University of Michigan, and Michigan State.
Those were some heady times for Tech, and we got to see and play hockey with some real powerhouse teams. And we ourselves were a powerhouse -- three consecutive trips to the NCAA Frozen Four, runner-up twice and champion once. The program has not been up to that high water mark since then.

MUST adhere to Rules of Forensic Accuracy, Rules of (legally admissible) Evidence, Chain of Custody and Verification by Documented and Legally (court recognized) EXPERTS in their respective fields.
Kind of rules out a great many, well meaning, "well, just dive in!" approaches.
The PURPOSE of the search, is not just to "find" the victim.
But in the doing, also drive forward as to CONVICT, the killer.
And THAT is where and why EVERY "i" must be properly dotted as every "t" must be crossed.
A single mis-step can derail the entire case.
This is where a good, retired prosecutor, can be the Best Friend as to shepherding the process ahead.

White House waited for GOOD WEATHER to launch strikes on Iraq and Syria to avoid 'unnecessary casualties': B-1 bombers flew from US and dropping 125 missiles on seven targets in 30 minute blitz deemed a 'success'
BTW whose 'unnecessary casualties'?

Speaking of cataracts, just had the left eye done 1/4. Second delayed because of weather, now scheduled for 2/14.
IMO, if there's any significant impairment just have it done. Why wait, for what? Makes a world of difference.

Related question - could a vampire (cop or otherwise) board public transport? (Say, for example, that it's Todd, the Sensible Vampire, who doesn't see the need to let his bloodlust take a major bite out of his wallet.) Are cabs in play here? What about facilities where there's a push or pull to enter sign? Surely that's an implied invitation? For that matter, if you consider yourself a law-abiding citizen and whole-heartedly embrace the Constitution, is there (in the sense of a social compact) enough implied consent that Officer Dracula wouldn't need more than the warrant to get in?
I probably need to go back and watch Forever Knight on that one - they probably touched on the matter somewhere.

They do this odd thing where they show a scene and then have historians explain the scene then move on to the next scene.
It really takes away from the flow of the show but I guess audiences now need history explained to them due to modern western ignorance?

So, even if a guest or non-resident visitor says 'come on in', that is insufficient.
Otherwise, the vampire could just send some hobo to break into the house, then invite them inside. So it has to be explicit permission to enter from the actual occupant.
This rule does not apply to public/commercial structures, like stores, shopping malls, public service buildings, even churches, etc.

My vampire routinely crashes in empty, for-sale houses. The rule there is the owners are no longer primary residents but are living elsewhere and the structure is therefore fair game. Vacation homes are also fair game as unless the owner is actually in it, they are not the primary resident. However if there is a caretaker residence, that is off limits without an invitation. Of course there are judgement calls but I don't go out of my way to explore them really.

Well in IL we have Cayro, VI-enna and Grandy Tour.
I live a few miles south of Grand Detour, my ancestors settled near there ca.1841. It was actually named by the French when controlled the area, after a great turn in the Rock River, while heading south it reverses course , heads north, then again south.
Posted by: Farmer at February 03, 2024 03:55 AM (55Qr6)
IDK, I view mine not so much as some Undead Evil but as a kind of apex predator that has occurred more or less naturally for a very long time. I indulge in several discussions in the books about what they are, as the vampires themselves don't really seem to know!
They're just... there.

The conceit is from actual primate studies: a giveaway for 'hybrids' is unusual, exaggerated, or crooked teeth! When primate subspecies interbreed it causes aberrations in tooth distribution and arrangement. So my idea for vampires is that as humanoid species interbred eons past, it led to a highly unusual and rare hybrid that isn't common but is persistent. And doesn't reproduce in the usual mammalian way.

Of course it depends on your insurance, but the basic doesn't cost that much. But if you choose to add Laskic, as my wife and I did, being extremely nearsighted most of our lives we chose that option, around here it is about $1700 for each eye. Still worth it IMO.

A friar was in his garden & found that his rose bush had cross-bred with his Venus fly trap plant, producing a carnivorous offspring. After tending to the strange hybrid for a year, it grew large enough that it had begun eating local stray cats & dogs. Finally, one day, one of the local children wandered into the garden & was eaten. The locals tried to convince the friars to uproot the plant & kill it, but the friars said it was a unique gift from God, and refused.
So the locals took their problem to the strongest man in town, Hugh the Blacksmith. Taking up his hammer, Hugh went to the garden & pounded the plant into a pulp, and then ran the friars out of town, too - problem solved!
The moral of this story?
"Hugh - and ONLY Hugh - can prevent florist friars!"
