Wednesday Overnight Open Thread (2/7/24)
Quote I “These funds were to be used for the welfare of myself and our seven children. It is tremendously shameful, yet not surprising, that these heinous smear tactics are being employed to victimize myself and my children once again. For the record, these funds were issued in my name and I placed these funds with the help of tax lawyers into a trust fund for my children.” Mrs. Mark Houck
Quote II "So this is a petition for all the airlines, so big girls like me can fly. It's not my fault I have an ass this big – please just make them bigger." Model Gracie Bon
Quote III "Yes, for me to want to change, there had to be reasons beyond the money, right? So when I said that [in June 2022] I fully meant it and it was true. Now, when they slap you with a large amount of money in your face, your feelings do change. I try not to be a materialistic person, but I do owe it to my family as well to set them up for success the best I can, and having kids I think changed that quite a bit. So the money is a part of it; I’m not going to lie. But again, when I said that I wasn’t fully aware of what I was saying because you don’t really understand." Professional Golfer Jon Rahm
I don't want to hear one word from these sanctimonious reprobates about "Climate change".
AND HE'S OFF Smiling Prince Harry jets back to LA after 30 minute reunion with Charles – but didn’t meet William on 26hr trip
Harry only arrived in London from California on Tuesday afternoon PRINCE Harry has jetted back to LA after a whistle-stop trip to see his father. The Duke of Sussex was pictured arriving at London Heathrow at 1.30pm today - just 26 hours after landing at 12.30pm on Tuesday.
You on the other hand will not be allowed to fly to see your loved ones.
America's Favorite Cookie Takes a Hard Left Turn Nothing is immune to woke ideology, not even cookies. Oreo's latest partnership signifies a disturbing trend in U.S. corporations advancing the LGBTQ+ agenda, as far-left ideologues impose it on children through programs like Drag Queen Story Hour and by placing pornographic books in public school libraries. The findings uncovered by the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), a conservative watchdog non-profit, reveal that cookie kingpin Oreo is a "proud" partner of PFLAG, formerly the national Parents, Families, & Friends of Lesbians and Gays network. "Is your favorite cookie company grooming children?" NLPC prefaces a 29-second video exposing the Oreo-PLFAG partnership. "What happened to the kid-friendly cookie we all used to know and love? Don't let PFLAG and Oreo corrupt your children."Just the cure for this BS, H/T TC via CBD.........

Lasers, meth and aircraft don’t mix in arrest of Columbus man COLUMBUS, Ind. (WISH) — A Columbus man was arrested Saturday night after a Bartholomew County sheriff’s deputy observed him aiming a laser at his patrol vehicle. Several reports were received by the sheriff’s office over the last week regarding someone aiming a laser at aircraft in the area of the Columbus Municipal Airport. On Saturday night, another report came in, which prompted a sheriff’s deputy to be dispatched to the area of the airport, but the deputy was unable to find the source of the laser. Twenty minutes later while travelling on U.S. 31 near I-65, the deputy observed a green laser emitting from a black passenger car. At that time, the laser was pointed at the deputy’s patrol car. After a traffic stop, the driver was identified as 49-year-old Christopher Clem of Columbus. During the investigation, two laser devices were found, along with methamphetamine and crushed prescription painkillers.
Sea otters what can't they do? Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.
Against all odds, a distressed California coastal ecosystem is on the mend, in large part, thanks to the insatiable appetite sea otters have for crabs. In a groundbreaking study published this week in Nature, scientists revealed that the return of sea otters to their former habitat in a Central California estuary has slowed erosion of the area’s marsh banks by up to 90%. The resurgence of these charismatic marine mammals to the salt marshes of Elkhorn Slough in Monterey County sparks hope for improving coastal ecosystems and marks a significant ecological success story.

The ONLY "fix" for that is liposuction and skin excision. And even then, that won't cure her - they don't know what causes it, but it is hereditary and it IS NOT something that diet and exercise will help make smaller.
I only found out that I had it a year ago, after a lifetime of berating myself (and knowing that people were commenting on my size when they didn't think I was listening) about my lack of willpower. It was so nice to find out it wasn't my fault.
So, please - BE NICE.

A shot rang out
...and there was no window for escape..
The snow was a pristine sheet of white.
Until the blood spatter came through the shattered window...
The blood curling scream echoed through the snow covered forest.
In the distance, a wolf howled.
A male voice gasped weakly, "Okay, hon, you can have the remote."
"I should have remembered not to switch over,,, during...during Rico to the Rescue... It's so cold...so very, very cold..."

I was around golf a long time back in the 80s and 90s and I still can’t make heads or tails about this PGA tour verse LIV thing. So many players said they were going to stay with the PGA tour, and then, when money was thrown at them, they change their minds. It wasn’t long ago when the PGA tour was the top of the class, someone screwed the pooch big time it would be like the NFL being superseded by some American football league in India. In fact, the PGA tour was much more established and had everyone on their side, politicians, businesses, etc. it is shocking that this is happened really.
Everyone has to make their own decisions, but for Jon Rahm, and a host of other PGA tour de defectors to say they did this to take care of their family that is just rich. These guys can make 1 million in a weekend and often do. This wasn’t about their family.

CLASSIC symptom of Lipedema and Lymphedema.
I agree, the airlines need to do something about this - if someone has medical evidence that they have one of these 2 diseases, the airlines should be required to sell them 2 seats for the price of one.
Or the insurance companies should be required to cover these new drugs for people with these diseases. Because I am here to tell you - these meds are WORKING for a LOT of people with these diseases, but insurance companies don't want to pay for them.

1. The Russians have cracked open the fortress city of Adveedka, the only question now is how many prisoners they will capture.
2. Zelensky has fired his top general, hoping to pin the PR disaster of Adveedka's fall on him.
3. Mud Season, which will end any cross-country maneuvering, is about 3 weeks away.
4. The countries bordering Ukraine have started openly discussing how they will carve up the non-Russian portions left after the coming collapse.

Agreed. There has to be more. WTH is going on at the PGA Tour HQ? I don't have any strong feelings towards LIV or PGA Tour. I'm just confused how it got this bad this fast. It's weird. Pro sports splitting off tends to go bad for both sides. In racing it was IRL/CART, Grand Am/ALMS. OW racing is still struggling and sports car racing is slowly coming back from there split. It does damage that lasts.

I'll tell you what. If I can take Theraflu whenever I get the serious sniffles, I can take IVM when I think I'm coming down with the flu. It's just as harmless, and it's much more effective. Did it just this week.

My cousin's wife died last year, right before my father. Lymphedema was the root cause. And that was caused by chemotherapy for breast cancer, which she got back in the '90s.
That triggered lymphedema. They kept it under control mostly until a few years ago.
In 2021, she ended up in Augusta Burn Center due to 3rd degree burns in her leg tissue due the build up of uric acid, from her damned bodily fluids building up. I'd never heard of that before.
Anyway, she died due to runaway infections. They couldn't get in under control.

The FDA had a tweet that said,
“You are not a horse, you are not a cow. Seriously, y’all. Stop it.”
10-20 million sub-Saharan (black) Africans take Ivermectin every year as a long term prophylactic treatment for river blindness.
Why is the FDA so racist that they are comparing black Africans to farm animals?

Is shame to me that the Spaniards in particular have left for LIV. I think Spain should always be regarded as the one country that punched way beyond its weight when it comes to golf. it is not even a golfing country. It has no golfing heritage yet Spain over the last three or four decades could feel the team of five guys that could beat any other country at any time easily. Not saying they would win every time, but they would be as likely to win as the opponen.

4 billion plus dose administered since it's advent. Praised as a wonder drug by the WHO and CDC. Nobel prize to its creators. Widely acknowledged by real science as one the safest drugs out there. Overdosing, the common shrill cry during the fake flu season, would require a dosage 1000 times the normal dose. A real, effective and legitimate response to Covid. Unfortunately, if you have that, you don't get your EUA for the vaccines. They hate us and want most of us dead, after they take our money.

Pioneered much of the early, multi-track recording techniques. Brought in strings and other orchestral parts. Contributed in no small way, to The Beatles being one of the all-around best Studio Bands of all time.
Question: Did George R. Martin have any similar success with any other bands, or was his career a "hitch to a star", only with The Beatles?

Collector's Firearms, Houston, TX. If you buy a new gun at Retail, you'll be taking a haircut. If you pay their asking price for a used gun, you'll be taking a haircut. If you sell them guns from yo' pappy's estate, you'll be taking a haircut.
But still, one of the finest Gun Shopping Experiences that you can hope ever to find. 40,000 sq. ft. of gunny goodness, replete with thousands of historic firearms, can not be denied.

WTF!!!???
The left is really pushing for bloodshed.
Posted by: Diogenes
No mistake there. We can't become complacent about their intent. No one can predict what's coming but, I firmly believe bloodshed will be one of the prices we pay to hold onto our Liberty. Take heart, the left fears us as much as they hate us. They also underestimate our resolve. Hopefully, that is their fatal error.

However, I can whistle, hum, or sing a few of her songs, despite not having heard them for years. (My three daughters are almost grown up, wipes away tear.)

I assume that there was a ground 'range' where the gun would be tested? Must have been interesting to watch. I'm also curious if the barrels could sustain a full ammo load while the aircraft was static, i.e. did the gun rely on flight airflow for cooling?

It depends on whether it is Lipedema or Lymphedema - they are similar, but have very distinct patterns to look for. Untreated, Lipedema can develop into Lymphedema. Most doctors know about Lymphedema, but it is just in the last few years that doctors have become aware of the prevalence of Lipedema. It is now being addressed in Medical Schools.
You can look them up to see the differences - up until now, there weren't many options for treatment. Bariatric surgery almost always fails for both diseases, because it doesn't treat the underlying disease.

When I think about Oreos and Nabisco, I think of RJR Nabisco in the 1980s and the bee movie but actually a relevant bee movie barbarians at the gate.
For GR the cigarettes were addictive, and the other addictive substance was Oreos. But since that time RGR was broken up, and Nabisco went to Philip Morris and then Kraft, and at this point, I don’t even know anymore. If you want to study corporate buyouts and spinoff’s galore go with tobacco in 80s 90s and early 2000s. I think the Oreos have changed so many hands they don’t even know who owns them.
Most companies go with the work because they think it’s the easiest one to deal with. We proved them wrong with target and Bud Light. I still say we should not let off on Bud Light regardless of conservative influencers to say we should call off the dogs. I get the argument for doing that that would doubly prove the power of our choice, on the other hand, it is probably better to prove that no one could tell us what to do in our world. Bud Light is done. No one’s going to tell us to reverse course.

For me, Tirzepatide (Mounjaro for Type 2 Diabetes or Zepbound, specifically for weight management) is what I have been taking. Other folks have had success with Semaglutide (Ozempic or Wegovy).
Eli Lilly has another medication currently in trials that is showing better results than Tirzepatide has. Almost no side effects for most people.

1. They didn't want to stop. They had to at some point, but they were completely done with their set and encores and they were taking requests yelled at them by the audience, telling anecdotes, just really enjoying being on stage with each other.
2. I had never noticed this before on the radio and albums, but everyone is not in every song (especially when they did the Stevie Nicks songs). This gives them all a chance to rotate out for a breather. Except Lindsey Buckingham. He is in every song. He played for a solid 3 hours without a break and would have kept going (see the comment about being fired by the others for being coked out).
3. About every 20 minutes someone felt the need to kiss Christine McVie's butt for rejoining them. I guess I should say stroke her ego. She had not performed in a while, and I guess getting her out of semi-retirement to go on tour must have been a challenge.

The Swifties, both Japanese and American, had their first confrontation with time zones, and the international date line and all that. Their math didn't go so well, and they were worried poor Tay-Tay couldn't make it.
Her concert is on the 10th, and the Super Bowl is the 11th, of course.
Tay-Tay will be back before she leaves, local time wise, by an hour or two, and will have a full day...

Y'know, in the African Campaign, even the P-40 Kittyhawk, was considered an eminently cromulent plane for that Theatre, given it's low altitude aerial combat and ground attack roles. And, it's numbers and kill ratios, proved that it could do the job.
The Merlin was THE engine of the WWII vee-engine arena. But the Allison, at lower altitudes, gave yeoman service in any aircraft for which it was suited.
Bear in mind. It was the superb handling qualities of the "A" model Mustang, that gave heart to even try the Merlin transplant into the plane.
Oh, and I've seen the videos of Cruise flying his twin-seater. Competent and safe pilot? Appears to be so.
Up to WWII Mustang fighter pilot standards? Not. Even. Close.

390 I confess to envy of Cruise's P-51.

I remember reading a quote from Yeager, to the effect of: The P-51 was a fantastic airplane, but it was something of challenge to fly, yet we didn't think about it because we were flying al.ist every day (in the war)
Kudos to Tom Cruise for flying it

My reading tells me the Pilots loved the P-47 quite a lot.
Most stable gun platform, most survivable under attack.
And flown to IT'S strengths, one hell of a contender against any Reich plane sent up against it.
That's the difference between the Thunderbolt and the Mustang. The Jug, had to be flown in it's best dynamic range, to be effective.
The 'Stang had to be flown better than it's opponent's dynamic range, in order to score the kill.
Still. The '47 Uber Alles for the combo of deadly fighter, long range and ground attack killer and survivor.
If I wanted to survive WWII as a fighter pilot, it would be Jug, all the way.

Totally agree.
I read a story about an ace P-47 pilot - I think it was Robert S. Johnson - who was flying back in his damaged P-47when an enemy plane found him. Johnson was pretty much helpless.The pilot made several runs at the Jug but it just kept flying and the enemy pilot ran out of ammunition. Johnson made it home. I'll see if I can find the story.
One advantage of the Jug, of course, was its air-cooled engine, so it didn't have a radiator to get shot up.

Whoever mentioned Bob Seger's greatest hits as driving tunes, it used to be in my car that had a 6 CD changer. If I were to splurge on something for myself it would be to change out my audio setup and restore the 6 CD changer. The Car's greatest hits will keep you awake and enthusiastic for a while, always got played in New Jersey on my way back from Virginia.

I don't need to read the link, but thanks.
The P-47 pilot and the German pilot, met and became friends, after the war.
The P-47 was out of ammo when the German pilot (Bf-109?) fell upon him. And proceeded to expend every round of ammo on board, into the P-47.
Which, even with two of eighteen cylinders shot away, continued to fly towards the English coast.
From this, the German pilot realized great respect for the American, and kept other German planes intent on attacking, at bay.
After the war, the two pilots became friends, till the end of their days.
IIRC ?

Yes. The only good Fleetwood Mac was the first iteration of Fleetwood Mac.
The Cocaine soaked 70s Fleetwood Mac is terrible, awful stuff.
And cassettes were the best Road Trip Media, ever.

questions/standards.
When you read them try not to laugh.
It's pretty clear the guy tends to be right, but for the wrong reasons.
Whether or not he knows it is another conversation.
He's also a dem/Trump hater.
