Nope. It's on Cape Ann, Massachusetts. Still there, more a tourist trap now though. Looks nice in daylight.
Not to be confused, by the way, with the East Point Lighthouse, which is a different structure on Prince Edward Island. Silly Canucks.

Not reading up on what everyone has already said, or whether it's even been mentioned, but the DCCC stepping back away from any pro-life organizations, the newest story on Hot Air.
Do we need any further proof that the Democratic Party is 100% beholden to it's left wing?
I've always thought that the idea that Democrats could take the House in 2018 was a bit far fetched considering the make up of the House as it is when compared with the ideological leanings of the districts they represent, but the Democratic Party is now convinced outright refusing to do what they did in 2006 which helped give them a majority. They're refusing to appeal to center to center-right Democratic voters in the Rust Belt. They're outright giving up on them.

If North Korea sent missiles toward Guam or the US, could the US missile defense system shoot them down? Should it?
No. If we knock down their incoming nuclear missiles, they may view it as an aggressive act.
Posted by: I'm Anonosaurus Wrecks and I approved this message at August 11, 2017 10:17 AM (Nwg0u)
HONG KONG -- The island of Guam made rare headlines this week when North Korea, responding to blustery language from President Trump, threatened to fire four ballistic missiles into waters near the American territory's shores. Some Guam residents told reporters that they worried what might happen if North Korea's leader, Kim Jong-un, were actually to follow through.
Scientists in Guam, however, say they have at least one other major threat in mind: climate change.

Oh c'mon. You guys can't seriously be telling me that your wife actually asks you questions like this?
Although I couldn't believe the dream thing either, so I guess maybe it's possible.
But I can't even imagine doing that, let alone wanting to do that.

Walk into ex sister in laws house for thanksgiving, get kids settled and start to mingle. The kitchen is empty except for Ex-wife putting something on the bottom shelf of the fridge.
Whisper something smooth and sexy and half smack dat butt..
A very surprised SiL yelps like a scalded cat, spins around, and for what seemed an eternity just looks at me. Says NOTHING.
I. Mean. Nothing.
For years.
I all but forget this happened.
Then one day, she starts telling the story over a holiday get together.. and I was left explaining why I never mentioned it.

I agree. I think that the MSM which is totally fair to every Republican administration, helping them enact their policies, ought to be right out there paying close attention to everything these agencies are doing so none of it can get by quietly without rounds of loud shrieking praise from all of the usual parties.
I mean, I wouldn't want people who sneer about "low information voters" to have to go out of their way and look up what policies these departments are doing. Sakes alive, no.

Such an attack aligns with their long term plans to evict the U.S. maritime and military presence from the inner and outer rings of islands in the South Pacific.
Foremost, the U.S. loss of Guam would facilitate the invasion of Taiwan by the CHICOMs.
Mahan and Clausewitz, my friends.
See also, Red Star Over the Pacific by Toshi Yoshihara and James R. Holmes.
(The revelation that the NORKs are targeting Guam and the CHICOMs immediately attempt to block a preemptive strike brought it all together for me.)

Your confusing society with paid shills. This is the base material for AstroTurfing.
Urban areas now live off money laundering. Its for-the-children or only-fair or some other BS so that most get credit or paper from the Federal Reserve System to claim stuff made by others.
Why can't teaching, police, firemen, politician and so-on-and-so-on be part time positions that are done when needed from conscripted labor. Community service from solid citizens instead of convicts. Someone pushing government forms is paid better than someone growing food. Government pensions and salaries would not be a growing problem if their were none.

See, no, that's not true. For example, if I were to be discussing hey do you think she looks hot with a guy I'm dating, the odds are basically 1,000% that I am asking that question because I think that she looks hot and want affirmation thereof.
On the other hand, I have other, hmm, how to put this, less than entirely sane areas where there is no good answer because not answering is not going to save you.
I like to mix up what those areas are at random, just to keep everyone on their toes, even me.

Retaliating tit-for-tat is the best way to deal with an aggressor. Up the ante as you do.
Assume Fat Boy is a rational actor.
I'd start to sinking NORK subs underwater as our tit-for-tat, and not telling the World. Fat Boy can't go public, without losing face, or going all out (which is crazy).
If Fat Boy is truly crazy, better to pick the fight now rather than later.
Blockades are visible and will give Fat Boy loss of face with his people.

Although we do indeed like it here.
And surprisingly, the numbers of conservatives we have met here is much higher than one would expect.
We spent quire some time with a 25 year home owner and resident at the pool yesterday.
She has her very own photograph of her and Donald Trump together.

you.
How about lamb? I don't like it myself, but I know people go nuts for it.

Critical advice from a long-married man to any newly married man - Anything and everything you say can, and will, be used against you. Never forgot that.
There is one balancing force, however, which you should use often, much more often than you may feel is necessary: Anything complimentary or flattering that you say will be believed without question, and rewarded. The more over the top you go, the better! The rule here is - you can never do too much. Especially if she says it's too much, it's not too much.

Yes, there is a reason - Mueller. Here's the deal: go after Obama or Hillary or their people and Mueller plays ham sandwich on you. Let them skate and he just makes life miserable but doesn't indict anyone. As soon as that SOB Sessions caved they had Trump by the balls. The trick right now is to keep Trump convinced he is better off playing ball than throwing down. Key word is "keep" because even a year from now Trump could get pissed off, fire Sessions, and loose the dogs. So the Dems, or more accurately the former Obama administration still in place, are riding a tiger (Chuck and Nan and even the DNC have no role in this). They have to constantly give Trump enough reason to trust that they won't double-cross him, but keep him afraid of them. Their bigger problem is a twofold ticking time-bomb:
1. The public is already beginning to realize "Russia!" is bullshit, and...
2. The words "Trump" and "afraid" do not go well together.
I will add (to this comment made elsewhere) that the reason Chuck and Nan have no control over this is that while Russia! is baloney, Obama has enough REAL dirtiest on Hillary and the old-line Dems to send them up the river forever! With his media toadies under control, he can nuke them and walk away clean.

If you're speaking of narcissists, it's because they ARE charming. They have a great skill in acting as if they are completely captivated by what you say and you are the most important person in the world. That's because they need narcissistic supply themselves. If you cease giving it they disappear to look for the next supply or if you imply they're not perfect they react in rage or just cut you off.
However, I've known Southern women although I've never beeb married to one. I went to a school with them and granted I wasn't a man, but i found Southern women to be much the same as Northern women in this respect-Some of very nice and some are narcisists
Everybody enjoys a little flattery and some people are good at giving genuine compliments.
