95 Willowed from last thread ~ but bears repeating.
OK ~ so the leftards have shut down the United States government and have been working 24/7/365 for foreign nationals, oh, excuse me, law breaking, annoying illegal alien foreign nationals, instead of working for, you know, United States Citizens (of all races creeds and colors).
Trump's tweets are good ~ but all the right (that means ostensibly you, too GOPe) have to beat the drum incessantly on this. The democrats have put foreign countries and law breakers ahead of all US citizens. The Lefties show the GOP pushing Grandma off a cliff? WE need to run ads of US servicemen and women (preferably females of color) saying"To Chuck Schumer and the so called democrat party in Congress ~ why are you putting illegal foreign nationals ahead of us? Why aren;t you working for US citizens" Also have one showing an inner city African American, preferably in Chicago, saying the same thing ~ asking "Mr.Durbin, Mr. Schumer and all the Democrat Congressmen ~ why are you, as you actually said, working 24/7 for illegal aliens? We have problems right here, crime, drugs , gang members and people need paying jobs. Why aren't you working 24/7 for that? Why are you shutting off our government for people form other countries when we need you to work for us? I have had enough of this ~ I am voting conservative Republican this fall! ~ at least they are trying to fix the economy, fight crime and are working to get us jobs." Call your congressman.
If the RNC doesn't have these commercials ready to air right now ~ shame on them. Shame.
The truth ~ "gentlemen" of the GOPe ~ it is an antidote for what ails ye and is guaranteed to kill donks. And it's even popular!!!!

101 Bluebell, how was the March for Life?
Posted by: Tami at January 20, 2018 08:50 AM (Enq6K)
----------
It was great. It really was. Lots and lots of people. And as always, it was a happy crowd.
I saw Evangelical Lutherans for Life, grammie! And if "Our Country is Screwed" is here, I want him to know I saw his daughter's school, Franciscan University. Also a group from THE Ohio State University, complete with a few band members.
One of the most interesting people I saw was a young woman with the kind of haircut and clothing you would expect to see at today's march instead. She held a hand-made sign that said "Post-Abortive. Pro-Life. Atheist." Pretty amazing.Posted by: bluebell at January 20, 2018 08:55 AM (kNasr)
102 Grammie, Green Bay has a hotel? I call bullshit on that. It probably looks like the hotel in downtown Beirut.

===========================
Ya, I was surprised. It looked pretty nice. Another one was in Milwaukee, which they said was the new trendy place to stay. (?) One was the American Club in Kohler, of course. Two were by me - The Abbey and the Grand Geneva (formerly the Playboy Club. A lot nicer now though.)Posted by: grammie winger, pitchers and catchers are packing their bags, at January 20, 2018 08:55 AM (lwiT4)

105 "Size wise, yes, but I'd bet Mayfield has a better work ethic, not that it will matter in the end. Manziel was just a pampered drunk, about which his father was very open as I'm sure he could see problems ahead."
I live in Manziel's original home town in East Texas, where the whole Manziel clan has been. You know how most athletes are home town hero's? He was NEVER celebrated here, because everyone here just rolls their eyes and looks up at the sky when you say "hey, did you hear the latest about the Manziel's?" Astounding that an actual athlete like him came from that line of drunken criminals. (Johnny has at least 3 very close relatives that have spent time in federal prison)
In fact, I think if anything we all feel a little sorry for Johnny; for all of his problems, he's probably the most sober and hardest working Manziel that's been seen in at least 4 generations.
(and I started hearing stories about the things his dad was up to years before Johnny was born, although of course they were never proved in court. Had something to do with the private airstrip on Manziel land which no one was allowed to go to but which had small private planes going back and forth to Mexico a couple times a week back in the 80's)Posted by: Tom Servo at January 20, 2018 08:56 AM (V2Yro)

Think of the punishments had it been, say, a Utah, Wyoming, or some other large, but not "championship level" school. The punishments would've dwarfed SMU's "death penalty" by far...

273 PDT offered the Dems a huge olive branch right after he was elected. A massive infrastructure spending bill that's been a Dem wet dream for decades. Instead the Dems chose to "Resist" and refuse to cooperate on anything (just proving once and for all that their idea of infrastructure has nothing to do with actual infrastructure.)
They chose instead to spit in his face and drove him to the right.

356 Ruby Ridge started when the government asked Randy Weaver to cut a gun barrel down to illegal length. I detest all government 'sting' efforts.
Exactly. He didn't want to do it but he needed the money. And then they mailed him the wrong court date. The standoff started because he missed his court date.
The guy wasn't a saint. I'm not a saint. I'm low profile enough that I think the government won't murder me to make a point. Randy Weaver tried to be so low profile that he lived in godknowswhere Idaho without electricity and running water because that should keep him unimportant enough to not get murdered by the government, and that didn't work.Posted by: Bandersnatch, what is a proud Nitwit Lion at January 20, 2018 10:05 AM (fuK7c)

378 Hadrian, you can drill out the flow restrictor in your shower head. Remove said head and look in threaded end. The plastic disc therein will have a small (1/16" or so) water passage, sometimes combined with a tiny o-ring. If there's an o-ring, pop it out, reinstall, and test. If no o-ring, use a drill bit twice the diameter of the existing hole and drill it out. You'll get nearly four times the flow (you'll also use up hot water at a much faster pace, fwiw). If head does not have rubber donut within to seal against the gooseneck, apply two or three wraps of teflon tape to the male threads (clockwise as you look at the end of the pipe) prior to reinstallation. If there is a donut, slightly beyond hand-tight is sufficient; if you have to use tape, get it wrench-tight but don't break it off... If you have a hand-held shower head, you may find a similar device at one or more of the connections.Posted by: Cowboyneal - the other Jewish carpenter at January 20, 2018 10:09 AM (k2KmM)

I was on his show way back in the 90s, but I was filmed remotely speaking about this one animal species. The one time I worked with him a little was when he filmed a segment with my animals, and a bunch of us were there not to be on camera, but to wrangle the animals, and just generally set up things.
So there was down time and a little story telling. He Said something about Steve Irwin's wife almost getting bit by a snake, and how he loved the Irwins. Then he yelled out "but someday Steve IS GONNA GET KILLED!"
I always thought of that after Irwin did get killed.Posted by: stace at January 20, 2018 10:11 AM (6HFDU)

403 steevy I agree. I always found Living Colour highly over-rated just due to the novelty.
As for the birth of metal...Just about everyone agrees it was the first Sabs album and see no argument with that.
As for proto-metal, "In-a-Gadda-da-Vida" was an important step. And I think King Crimson's song "21st Century Schizoid Man" pre-dated the Sabs' debut by a few months. That riff was absolutely proto-metal.

But I'll tell you what, at the very least, Styx are a band that works hard. They really do have a blue-collar ethos. Nobody can deny, even if you don't like Styx, that they never, ever fail to put on a great show for their fans. Styx simply does not do bad shows. They're professionals to the core.
They have a new album out that is actually pretty damn good. Great, even. Against all the odds.

442 OK, what about Steppenwolf?
Now you're in my wheelhouse. They originated the term, "heavy metal' although that's not quite the style they played or were known for.
According to a recent ONT, we have Don Kirshner to thank for that band. I like them a lot and been listening to them this fine morning.

451 September 1977. I was 13 years old. Rush was on Don Kirchner's Rock Concert. Not appearing live but ol' Don showed all of the promo videos Rush had filmed in Wales while recording the album A Farewell to Kings.
I had HEARD of Rush but I was into Kiss and Sweet and stuff like that. For some reason I thought Rush was a local Buffalo band and they kind of were being from Toronto, and I thought it was cool that a local band was on Rock Concert.
So these three dudes with the longest hair I'd ever seen come out and they're playing classical guitars. They're playing doubleneck Rickenbacker basses They're playing mini-Moogs and orchestral bells and vibra-slaps and God knows what else and holy fucking shit my 13-year old mind was blown. They even managed to make kimonos cool. I was still struggling to learn my guitar lesson scales and chords, and the level of musicianship blew me away. Not to mention that three guys could play that many instruments and make such a full, symphonic prog-meets-metal sound.
The next day I gave all my Kiss and Sweet records to my little brothers and bought A Farewell to Kings. Remained a huge fan up through Signals or thereabouts.Posted by: WhatWhatWhat? at January 20, 2018 10:28 AM (ul9CR)

468 I was very lucky to see Maiden on their very first American tour, opening for Judas Priest at Shea's Buffalo Theater.
Priest was good that night but Maiden was a revelation. They were so good it's hard to find the words. By the time they did the "Iron Maiden-gonna getcha-how near or how far" bit with Eddie the mascot, the place was going insane. It was fantastic. Metal changed that night and we all knew it. I think every single concert goer walked out that night knowing they had just seen something historic.
A few months later they fired Paul DiAnno, who was on fire that night in B-lo, and at first I hated that because he was my favorite guy in the band. But Broooooce Dickenson was waiting in the wings...Posted by: WhatWhatWhat? at January 20, 2018 10:36 AM (ul9CR)

His two term presidency really was a triumph of the MSM and Our Betters.

A Great Intellect who becomes a stuttering idiot when deprived of his teleprompter.
A Racial Healer who was the most racist president since Woodrow Wilson.
A Marvelous Steward of the Economy with 0-2% throughout his terms and a failing middle class.
The list goes on and on of just who Oblabla wasn't not only what he wasn't but was the polar opposite of what we'd been told.
No wonder the MSM/Our Betters/Democrat Party completely came unglued when Trump won.

I think metal musicians suffer a lot of cognitive dissonance if they stray into left/right politics. You can stray into fuzzy generalities and tow the leftist line in pop.

I was in plenty of those! But what's sad is, the last one I was in was really good and had some serious potential, which is really exciting! Unfortunately, our lead singer was an enormous asshole who nobody could work with.
By the time we were recording our debut CD, first the bass player, then the keyboard player walked.
So, I've played a fair amount of bass in my time so I could fake my way through it, with many more takes than a "real" bass player, but I could get through it. And I play piano, middlingly, so I could fake my way through the keys as well.
I was doing all the guitar parts, the bass, the keys, practically living in the studio putting in the hardest musical work of my life, and I was dtermined to see it through because we had good stuff, and the singer, despite being an asshole, was a very talented singer and songwriter. But by the time the CD was released, it was all over. The drummer walked and it all fell apart.Posted by: WhatWhatWhat? at January 20, 2018 11:14 AM (ul9CR)
