The Quotes of The Day

Quote I

On the other hand, and let's face it, there's always another hand, unless you're a Saudi Arabian shoplifter of course, hurt feelings can be quite traumatic. I've heard that it can take seconds, sometimes even minutes, to get over it. Pat Condell


Quote II

"Supporters of the legislation argue it is necessary to ensure no one is above the law, but the Constitution is the highest law of the land, and the Constitution provides that only the president can exercise executive power," Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT)


Quote III

Leaving sex to the feminists is like letting your dog vacation at the taxidermist. Camille Paglia

DicksYeti-1.jpg


Once again business is getting involved in politics. Hopefully for Yetti coolers it backfires in their face.


*****

GQ Magazine, full of hate and cowardice. Why isn't the Koran on the list? Oh yeah, Muslims will kill you and Christians just keep on keeping on.

Well, it appears this group of scribes won’t be greeted very warmly at the Pearly Gates.

GQ magazine, a bible of “grooming” tips, gadget suggestions and style advice, has sparked a social media conflagration by calling the Christian Holy Bible “foolish, repetitive and contradictory” and placing it on a list of “21 Books You Don’t Have to Read.”


*****


If I could vote for him I would. Massachusetts Senate candidate Shiva Ayyadura has a sense of humor. “Only a REAL INDIAN can defeat the fake Indian.”

Ayyadurai first displayed campaign signs on the bus last March, initially with the message “Shiva 4 Senate/Be the Light,” then “Shiva U.S. Senate/Fight for America.”

But when he put up his new campaign slogan on March 17, city officials immediately threatened him with $300 per day in fines over alleged zoning violations.

*****


Will these things work for a fat ass vertically and horizontally challenged passenger like me?

There’s nothing inherently bad about the design of the Skyrider 2.0, a new compact seat that allows airlines to fit more passengers in less space with a hypothetical super-economy class. Engineered by Italian aerospace interior design company Aviointeriors and introduced at Hamburg’s Airplane Interiors Expo in earl April, the seat positions a willing passenger almost completely upright on a polyester saddle and back support. It seems well thought out, it’s reportedly very functional, and it even looks good.

*****

San Francisco mayor Mark Farrell stomps his foot and says, No more!

According to Fox News, Mayor Mark Farrell has finally lost patience with the city's transient population, which he says refuses help and refuses to move, even though the city has offered them rescue and rehabilitation services.

"Enough is enough,” Farrell told the San Francisco Chronicle. “We have offered services time and time again and gotten many off the street, but there is a resistant population that remains, and their tents have to go.”

Sweeping the dust under the rug is really not acceptable.

*****

Certain GOP members including Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) could learn a thing or two and maybe grow a pair from Gov. Paul LePage (R-ME).

Even after eight years in office, Gov. Paul LePage can still drive liberals crazy.

The Maine Republican already had a reputation for contrary behavior and a governing style that was definitely not politically correct, but his latest stance is sending opponents ever further around the bend than usual.

That’s because LePage is refusing to go along with the results of a popular referendum on one of Obamacare’s most suicidal provisions.

A poll was recently taken. What states are the most religious, what states are the least religious.

you look at the map of the poll’s results below, you’ll see that religious behavior tends to be a regional phenomenon. The most religious states in America are in the Southwest and Southeast—which is heavily Protestant—and the least religious states are clustered in New England and on the West Coast. After Vermont, the least religious states—in order—are Maine (55% “Not religious”, New Hampshire (51%), Massachusetts (49%), Oregon (48%), and Washington and Alaska (both 47%).

*****

Our federal court system is f*cked up. How? You ask. 9th District of the Federal Court of Appeals and a monkey selfie.

On Tuesday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals threw out a copyright lawsuit brought by a selfie-taking monkey.

The parties in Naruto v. Slater settled last September, but the appellate court refused to grant their joint motion to dismiss, imposing this decision against their respective wills, for no apparent reason other than to repeatedly dunk on People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). “How do we prevent people (or organizations, like PETA) from using animals to advance their human agendas?” asked the majority in one footnote.

*****

I don't know about you, but I don't think I would want to hang out with Dylan McWilliams.

April 23 (UPI) -- A Colorado man vacationing in Hawaii survived a bite from a shark -- after previously being attacked by a bear and a rattlesnake.

Dylan McWilliams of Grand Junction said he was surfing Thursday during his two-week vacation on the island of Kauai when a shark bit his leg.

The ONT Musical Interlude



April 25, 2007, American singer Bobby "Boris" Pickett died of leukaemia at the age of 69. Scored the Halloween anthem 'The Monster Mash' in 1962. The song had been banned by The BBC in the UK, deemed offensive and wasn't a hit until 1973. It was a spoof on the dance crazes popular at the time, including the Twist and the Mashed Potato. via thisdayinmusic.com


***



April 25, 1982, Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder were at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'Ebony And Ivory.' This was McCartney's 24th No.1 hit single as a songwriter. The title was inspired by McCartney hearing Spike Milligan say "black notes, white notes, and you need to play the two to make harmony folks!". It was later named as the tenth worst song of all time by Blender magazine and in 2007 was named the worst duet in history by BBC 6 Music listeners. via thisdayinmusic.com

Give her a break, she's an old lady and a Genius Award Winner.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. —An Oregon woman is in the Shelby County Jail charged with drug trafficking and she's old enough to be someone's grandmother.

Most people might not peg 72-year-old Adina Alexis as a drug dealer but police say they got a tip that she was coming to Memphis to sell Marijuana.

WREG found her last known address in Chicago.


*****

An arrest and rehabilitation is our Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

It has been five years since Tiffany Hall was caught in a cycle of substance abuse and addiction. Now, she is about to become a college grad – and she credits her success to the police officer who arrested her.

Hall first met Lieutenant Jim Foster when he was arresting her on drug charges in Long Beach, California. It was to be the first of many encounters between Hall and the compassionate police officer.

22 You guys remember that situation several years ago, where a woman got a baby put in her by a sperm bank, and then sued the "anonymous" donor for child support?

I was watching some MGTOW video or another where that case was mentioned. The poor schlub was indeed found liable for child support.

I got to thinking about that case again afterwards, and a funny thought occurred to me.

What if, instead of being purely defensive and relying on, "Hey, I never signed up for such a deal, and neither did you, so neither of us owes the other anything" he'd gone all-out on offense, and counter-sued for full custody of the kid?

That strikes me as perhaps a much more effective defense in such cases. Give her something to lose, potentially, you know?

He might not have been in a postion to take care of the kid if he'd won custody, though.

In many states, if you don't make contact or attempt to make contact with your child it can be considered abandonment or emotional abuse. He also waved his parental rights as well via sperm bank.

You ask about child support and double standard I'll assume? Yes, it is. In some Western Counttiesu, the grandparents of the father are being found liable for child supper (I believe this was Canada).

Nothing will change unless the laws change. The laws won't chnage unless voting rights are restricted and rights are taken away. And that is not happening. It could, but we aren't there yet.

74 But, see, Monk, the donor's responsibilities were also supposed to have been waived by the deal both he and the recipient made with the sperm bank.

If the court is on the way to determining that he has responsibilities after all, that changes the situation and he should now have the chance to claim some rights to go along with it.

80 I once visited Marin in California. Across the bridge from San Francisco.

The place was beautiful, but I found something weird and out of place about it. It struck me when I saw the welcome sign. On the East Coast, you might normally see signs for the Rotary Club and a few churches. There was no sign for Rotary, and there was only a sign for a Buddhist Temple. And there were no churches in town. None.

86 I've been out all day and didn't see the serial killer thread until now, so maybe this has already been addressed... My sister works for a newspaper in Northern California. In going through the papers archives after the announcement today she found that many of the victims reported a similar thing; the rapist has an extraordinarily small penis. Suspects at the time were examined to determine the sizes of their members. The more you know.......

89 After the serial killer thread I'm rewatching Mindhunter. David Fincher is the most red pilled director when it comes to male nature and female nature. There was an interesting dialogue in episode one at the bar about the rise of crime and deviance. The FBI teacher said to the younger one that the people used to regard the State as patriarchal, thus imolying the change to matriachial state is the cause.

Feminists should hate Fincher but because he hammers male nature they focus on that and leave him alone.

I disagree, strongly. I think. It sounds like you object to what the Federal Court of Appeals did. They did the right thing. We don't need PETA filing lawsuits on the behalf of animals. Hopefully, this action by the Federal Court of Appeals hammered a stake through the heart of the whole concept.

I can't begin to express my gratitude to my fellow Hordelings. As I told Fenelon this morning, I can share things with my dear friends in gray boxes that I can't on Caring Bridge, and this is a *tremendous* relief for me.

Jim in Galveston: I've been telling her all along about how I have this amazing, loving online community praying for her every single day. She knows.

I'm grateful for the miracle of the extra year, but mostly for having had her as long as I have. She's still with us for whatever time HaShem deems appropriate, and I'll rejoice in that, too.

On a semi-related note, Mrs Ibguy's return flight this evening had her going through Detroit, and (of course!) that scene from KFM just kept running through my mind. Which I think helped

166 Homelessness pays up here.

The panhandlers make a pretty good living, and they have better foul weather gear than I do. Some of it they get from various private social services, but I suspect they make enough to buy their own.

They eat free at Bean's Cafe, they sleep at Brother Francis shelter, or in tents in the parks, when they drink too much the Safety Patrol rounds them up and drives them to detox.

It is my belief that there is a not insignificant segment of the homeless population that is homeless by choice. There is a segment who are mentally incompetent, but cannot be institutionalized because it would "violate their civil rights." Apparently, taking care of them would somehow ruin their freedom, or some such shit. Then there is a segment that probably would find their way out of homelessness but prefers to drink or do drugs, so they never quite make it.

I do not believe that most of them are ever going to get jobs and housing and become self supporting. Nor do I believe that the government should continue to support them. Private groups manage that just fine.

Anchorage used to have a prison farm (up until the late 1960's) where a guy could get busted for vagrancy, get three hots and a cot, and learn how to grow stuff and become useful. That, also, apparently violated their human rights, or some such shit.

So, all the hand wringing and government dollars continue to be wasted, while the homeless keep on keeping on.

I think they might get the nightstick if they were in La Jolla or Mill Valley.

Our burg abuts another, grittier town that has a lot of the homeless. Apparently the cops here move the homeless back to the grittier adjacent town, by whatever means they consider necessary.

Which is, of course, what we pay them for.

172 Howie Carr did a hatchet job on that Shiva character and now he's running as an independent. MA Republicans are behind Geoff Diehl, but then, MA Republicans are redheaded stepchildren so who gives a fuck. Mitt Romney is a sock puppet. Charlie Baker is a robot, literally.

It's interesting though, being a Mass R myself (actually I'm an independent but thoroughly conservative, whatever that even means), living here really just sharpens your claws, as it were. We know how far gone the average Northeast LIV is, we truly understand the stakes, and we've met the (blessedly few) liberals who know the real plan and are On.Board. with 21st century global socialism. They have plans to keep their heads above water.

It's why the state went for Donald Trump so hard in the primary. Asymmetrical warfare, amigos.

176 That thread on Upper West Siders and their school getting to experience diversity should have cheered me up but it didn't. It just reminds me of what a mess liberals have made of education. Way back in the dark ages of the 60s and 70s the methods used by public schools was actual very simple. Flood the kids with math and reading and writing. using tried and proven techniques, Repetition, memorization, drilling and practice-practice-practice. Try to control the bad kids with harsh discipline but separate them when necessary, move the smart kids on in special groups when they showed promise and motivation

Maybe not a perfect system but it worked well overall. We led the world in every are imaginable.

Forced busing threw a wrench in the whole system and that was followed by political correctness that refuses and does does not permit discussion or mention of what and who is causing most of the disciple and academic in problems (mostly poor black kids, and now Hispanics are not allowed to be mentioned either.) So we get one idiotic solution after another with testing, goals, programs that never work because he problems cannot be named. Yet we are told blatant lies about how much better things are using phony metrics and how much better kids learn in diverse classrooms. And having half a school that cannot speak English will be good for my kids. And, BTW, all that white man history is not relevant anymore but damned well better agree to increase your taxes, happily, racist.

The fact that I will probably have to send my kids to a private school in the next year or two pisses me off to no end not just because of he headache and cost but because it shouldn't be necessary. Teaching kids is not rocket science but the libs have tried to make it so while politicizing the educational process. What was once the best public schools in the world in are a complete wreck and I see them only getting worse for the foreseeable future

The fleeting beauty that is life can pass us by as would another car on the street. At forty-six years of age, I am just learning to take-in the beauty of things.

Might our prayers and the joy of your memories be the love that she needs to dwell well in today. Might that be the case for you, as well.

Ephemeral hugs and ethereal prayers are never enough. Your eternal love and His eternal house are the only things that matter at this point.

God Bless you and Joyce.

It only makes sense that a company like Pelican coolers would seize the opportunity to grab market share when YETI goes SJW. Duck Commander, CFA, Hobby Lobby have proven that unabashedly conservative and Christian coupled with business sense is a winning combo.

Well, even though I hate boycotting for political reasons we should probably start doing it to teach corporations a lesson. Right now the "smart" thing to do is give in to the left because they inflict the most pain. We need to make it at least as painful as the left does so the calculus changes.

We've had 100+ mph winds maybe 4 times in 50 years. Yes, prices are low (I'm talking cost of living in general, not just housing). Lowest in the nation iirc.

People are asking: why do you always find the homeless in the shittiest areas? Well duh.

I know from observation, when homeless people camp out in a *good* area... residents, who give a shit about their neighborhood, crime rate and property values, call the cops, who actually do something about them, i.e., move them back to skid row.

Also, a lot of homeless people are shitheads but not dumb. Where dumbshit liberal city councils (who will never have to deal with them directly) are willing to tolerate them, they order the cops to ignore them and off the bums go, which is why you can find them in *some* semi-nice areas like Venice, filled with progressives who just feel oh so good about letting homeless people piss all over them.

I don't know where the attitude is coming from.

Boss told me the answer was no and he will talk to the new guy about it. He said he talked to one of the other guys last week. The third guy is probably about to be fired again as he's been MIA for a week now.

I really think I'm within a few months of retiring from there. I just want to do my job and be left alone.

246 Last night watching the news, I heard about a proposal in Sacramento, SB1971, that would loosen the requirements necessary to commit a lot of habitual homeless.

Among other things, you have to be able to show that a person *cannot* truly care for themselves, in order to have them committed. SB1971 would expand this to include "ability to procure healthcare." By this standard, supposedly, homeless people would fail, and thus could be taken in my state mental health facilities.

Of course, all of us can imagine how well this would go if it were implemented. There's probably Sacto libs who would want to have committed anyone who won't sign up for Obamacare.

267 I'm glad the Hillary supporting harridan from the Port Authority got canned for thinking she could order the cops around. BUT when you read the story, I must say that I understand why she got upset - it was a total bullshit stop by the cop, just so he could harrass some 19 year old girls (or whatever). No traffic violation at all, just that the front windshield appeared to have some tint that was too dark in NJ (but legal in other states) and they ended up confiscating the car. Now that is some bullshit there.

Oh and they also pulled the old "we can't see the license plate because the dealer put on a border you don't know about that slightly touches one of the numbers". Of course the plate could be easily read, but it's a technicality that traffic cops use to pull over anyone they feel like hassling for some reason.

Well professional homeless or beggars want to live in the nicest place possible because that is where they will get the best benefits and most handouts from passers by. Nome of them are thinking of owning and or leasing property and are nowhere near qualifying to do so.

322 "I had not heard the caverns had collapsed yet, just that they were pretty unstable now. Kind of makes sense when you mine a mountain, then keep setting off nukes or near nukes inside. Kind of poetic justice, except for all the poor bastards caught down wind if the mountain collapses."

I remember hearing at the time that a curious effect of the last test was that there was the large initial seismic shock from the blast, which was significantly bigger than expected, and then a few seconds later a strong secondary seismic shock, which was unexpected. And the story tonight says that space based measurements have determined that the mountain peak over the test location is now significantly lower than it was before the test.

keep blowing up the inside of a mountain with nukes, eventually it gonna fall down and go boom. And since the original blast was much bigger than anyone thought they could do, they may have gotten a bit too clever with their design and unwittingly designed a weapon with enough yield to blow their test base apart.

come to think of it, the worst part may be that with the loss of containment, probably the entire remaining underground facility is now heavily radioactive.

325 AOP, I do believe that's a huge part of it!

I noticed, too, that warrantable condos, the ones that first-time homebuyer schlubs like me could get financing to buy, were the ones that got snapped up right away by cash offers.

The non-warrantable ones, which are impossible to get financing to buy with less than, like, a 20% downpayment, would stay on the market for much longer.

Those pot dealers know what they're doing in real estate! They jump right on the cheap places someone like me could buy, and let the ones I can't buy stay on the market for now.

It really, really helps what little is left of my spirit to have this place where I can relax, be myself (behind a pseudonym, duh) and let it hang out.

Maybe someday a MoMee will come close enough to wherever I am to actually meet you whackjobs in person...until then, hey! I'll take what I can get.

357 on the topic of blasts that were too big - the famous picture we've all seen of the blast column towering over the anchored ships at Bikini Atoll is a testament to two of the biggest screwups the US made in its nuclear testing. The first, the Baker test in 1946, was supposed to leave most of the ships in usable condition with light cleaning. The navy didn't account for the effects of high temperature radioactive steam resulting from the blast condensing all over the ships, and the radioactive contamination was so great that probably 50 or so ships that were supposed to go back to active duty had to be scrapped. The admiral in charge of the test was forcibly retired.

The second big "oops" was in 1954, with the first H-bomb test. In modeling the blast size, no one thought to take into account the amplifying effect of the traces of naturally occurring deuterium and tritium in sea water, and the blast was an order of magnitude bigger than expected, destroying much of the test equipment and another round of ships that had been parked near the epicenter to gauge the blast's effects.

On the good side, at least it proved wrong the theory that there was enough deuterium in sea water to sustain a chain reaction and detonate the Earth. Probably not the most prudent way to find that out.

Or, as the journalists who covered this story put it, "What does Uranus smell like? Farts."

(I have to quibble a bit here. Flatulence, which sometimes does contain Sulfur dioxide, is composed more of 3-methyl indole and 5-methyl indole, that SO2. Uranus wasn't found to have much indole in it's atmosphere of either type.

So there. Your science lesson for the night. Enjoy!)

When will they just cave and come out with a coffin like box with it's own "facilities" "plugged in" and piped in info and oxygen? You know they want to do it. And it would be more comfortable than that thing. It'll be the innovation of the century similar to the way shipping containers renewed the shipping industry.

From
https://what-if.xkcd.com/30/

"While Venus's surface is awful, its upper atmosphere is surprisingly Earthlike. 55 kilometers up, a human could survive with an oxygen mask and a protective wetsuit; the air is room temperature and the pressure is similar to that on Earth mountains. You need the wetsuit, though, to protect you from the sulfuric acid. (I'm not selling this well, am I?)

"The acid's no fun, but it turns out the area right above the clouds is a great environment for an airplane, as long as it has no exposed metal to be corroded away by the sulfuric acid. And is capable of flight in constant Category-5-hurricane-level winds, which are another thing I forgot to mention earlier.

487 I live here in SF, and yes, the homeless problem is enormous.
Some cases are legit, others, maybe most, aren't.
I am a musician and so I walk to my car in the dark after gigs. It can be a bit scarifying. I'm old but I'm big. Most don't mess with me.
One time I got off a gig, and it is pouring rain, a real soaker. I had a raincoat and an umbrella. Come around the corner and there is a woman, maybe 70 years old (she looked it, even if she was 50) in a wheelchair, she was drenched, and just sobbing her head off. Boo-hoo sobbing. And, of course, she had a little doggy, since the SPCA will give dogs to the homeless rather than put them down.
It was the most pitiful thing I had ever seen.
I gave her my raincoat and twenty bucks.
Raincoat was worth $200.
Others I will walk right past, especially young males, but this woman, I guess I thought she could be the Lord sending me a test of conscience. Like maybe when I die I won't get let in to heaven on account of I walked past a cold, wet, old woman and her dog, sobbing her head off in a deluge of rain, didn't help her, and then St. Peter would tell me that it was really him.
I should make a movie about it.

I grok you, willow. You do your best but it's never good enough.

The good times don't last and it's only a matter of time before something unforeseen and unanticipated steps in front of you and keeps you from having any of the good things.
And there's no way around it.

You do, however, get to watch others enjoy their good things, so there's that...like watching BJ Cliton, the asshole who destroyed my career, hop on a jet and go anywhere he wants whenever he wants while I can barely scrape the money together to get my 19-year-old car fixed to take B'Gal to her doctors.

Life's a bitch and then you die. If that's not something to look forward to, I don't know what is.

Does he offer any advice on how to deal with the state coming between you and your young kids because you are the father? Because every fiber in a fathers being is to use physical force to fight against the state to protect their own children. He likes to dodge those pressing issues or shame men for just not being man enough or some bullshit. I like JP, but he lacks understanding and sympathy in some key areas of law and society in the current year and can come across as insulting.

Multiple degrees from MIT, invented the internet, bunch of patents, founded a bunch of companies, working on a digital technology cure for cancer, you know the kind of stuff.

So I googled him, It's all true. Plus, Destroyer of Worlds, extra credit.

Ah, that answers a question I had earlier today, whether the china was White House or just some stuff the Trumps keep in storage until they need to serve 150 or so.

Overall cost of state dinner: ~$800,000
Melania's dress: ~$3,000
Eating food off of Clinton-returned plates: priceless.

(I made the numbers up.)

533 The Barrel calls out with it's sweet siren song of false allure.

The Moron or 'Ette dreams thoughts of new white oak, perfectly charred, and resplendent with the bouquet of aged bourbon recently contained therein.

"Not so bad", they think. "I can do this", they hope.

When suddenly, the hopes are dashed, the dreams are slain and every fear is realized.

Thu Barrul.... bears a strong resemblance to the fabled "Honeypot" of G.I. lore, being just an oversized version of the standard 55 gal. steel drum. No one really knows how big it is, or how much it'll hold, but the faint tracings of the words: Exxon Valdez, suggest themselves through the rust and faded paint on the sides.

But that's only half of the horror. Once an Exxon property, the Valdez was sold to the Heinz concern, who promptly broke their promise to send the ship to Pakistani shores to be torched into pre-rusted razor blades.

No, it is into this nightmare of crude coated, salty, brine filled tanks that one is unceremoniously thrown down into fear, darkness and despair.

It is here that our Moron or 'Ette finds themselves in quite the pickle. Swim though they might, they can never seem to ketchup, withal.

No one relishes their time in the tanks.

Until, that is, either a COB, or Teh Ewok, or even Pixy fancies to drop down the line from a crane, and ... blessed rescue avails.

And the lingering stink of the fluids below persists, until one quaffs enough Val-U-Rite to drive out the foul from the pores, with the to-be-expected, alcoholic funk of the ONT regular. It's nearly a password to those in the know.

Loving parents find themselves confused...whether to afflict their spawn with nightmares from being warned of the horrors, or to not mention it at all, only to cry in anguish as their beloveds are plucked from their keyboards and screens by the Power that is Teh Barrel.

Centuries hence, whatever remains of mankind will sit around campfires in the dark of night, and speak but in hushed voice, of the legend of that past nightmare. They'll make ceremonies in hopes of forstalling it's reappearance, 'ever more.

But in the end, they'll fail.

First one that fails to close a tag in a smoke signal, and it's Game Over man. Game. Over.

Thanks. I've been fighting for almost 6 years.... The good fight I've been told over and over again. It's a marathon and at the end I've had some serious false allegations thrown at me by state actors (educators). When there is zero consequences, accountability, and responsibilities for what are crimes like alienation, child abuse, domestic violence, signing a false statement, signing an maliciously false affidavits (of which I have recordings to prove their false).... The laws and family courts are stacked against dads because we are considered the aggressors even when protecting ourselves against those who use force, coercion, and violence against us.

If you would like to point me to some legitimate groups that are active I'm all ears because I've found them to be lacking in my area or only after money by advertising fathers rights.

Yeah I'm bitter, angry, fighting mad, I grieve everyday for the last 5 years for the loss of my kids and how this is fucking them up, I'm beyong financially ruined, and the worst part is I cannot find one family doctor or psychologist that can offer me one piece of advice besides give up or ride it out or some platitude.

Fathers don't have rights..... Not in the current year.

545 275 -- I remember reading somewhere late last year that Whoa Fat's latest test had seriously damaged the mountain. From what I've read today, that was no understatement. What really makes my heart to pitter-pat is that fat boy's visit to China a couple weeks back was evidently to get reamed out good by Xi because if the mountain does collapse, the fallout will be headed straight to China. Xi, evidently, is not happy. China does not want either the fallout or millions of starving Norks flooding China when everything goes south.

I've always wondered why China did not administer a big, fat ass whooping to the Kim dynasty. Kim Jong-il especially made China lose face with the rest of the world big time on a number of occasions. Once Xi gets done remaking China to his liking, he'll have plenty of time to spank fat boy's chubby butt.

548 The link is Hannity's website w/a link to Rep Gohmert's document. In PDF not that Scribble thing.

https://preview.tinyurl.com/y9mmtj2s

In Robert Mueller: Unmasked, the GOP Representative [Louie Gohmert] pulls back the curtain and exposes the sordid truth surrounding the special counsel's career.

"What I have accumulated here is absolutely shocking upon the realization that Mueller's disreputable, twisted history speaks to the character of the man placed in a position to attempt to legalize a coup against a lawfully elected President", writes Gohmert.

551 I actually had a half way decent day today. Only six weeks late, I finally got my pansies planted today, along with a couple of parsley. (Swallowtale butterflies lay their eggs on parsley, and the caterpillars get big and fat before going off somewhere to pupate.) Then, this evening, Baen finally released the first chapter of so of David Weber's Honor Harrington series. It seemed a little bit more scatter shot than his last HH universe books. Too many short scenes introducing a million more characters. But the book itself doesn't come out until October, so I'm hoping those scenes will be filled out a little bit more by then.

Ibguy: I am truly sorry that Joyce has entered hospice. She is very fortunate, though, to be able to do it in her own home. I have always been haunted by the scene in Funky Winkerbean when Lisa was lying on a pedestal bed in the middle of an empty, sterile hospital room waiting to pass while Les just watched helplessly all alone. Joyce will be in her own bed, surrounded by her living family, and your brother-in-law will not have to sit there by himself waiting for the inevitable. Joyce has had an incredible year. Remember that. I wish you and her and your whole family the best.

From what I've heard, the few times I've actually talked to anyone back there, the situation just kept getting worse over time. One good thing is that a lot of the crazies have passed on to their just reward. But I'm just too old to go back and make peace with what's left. A text every couple of months suits me just fine. I have a husband, four loving kids, and four beautiful grandkids out here in flyover country who have been kept pretty isolated from the whole mess. So, it's worked fine for me. I hope you find some sort of liveable solution to your problem.

Thank you for that link. I've passed on Gohmert's scathing 48 page indictment of the 'honorable' Mueller. Mueller needs to be fired yester-fucking-day, with Trump fighting the good fight that will ensue. Trump should then go directly to the American people with a prime time presidential statement, with no media questions allowed, detailing Mueller's sordid history. It would be an eye-opener for many as Mueller's past has been ignored by the media/Dems happy with his attempt to get Trump. But the majority of the American people know the difference between right and wrong, and Mueller is not just wrong now but has been spectacularly wrong in the past with no consequences coming to him (except promotion upwards, in typical bureaucrat fashion). But Mueller, to his credit (/), has managed to waste millions of taxpayer dollars in settlements due to his unethical and criminal actions.

Again, thanks. Well worth the time to read that 48 page damning indictment of Mueller.

Preliminary arguments really have no bearing on how the four conservative justices will vote.

During the oral arguments phase of the ObamaCare John Roberts sounded like he was going to strike down ObamaCare, the rest is history.

The only justices you can trust are Thomas and Alito.

With Thomas being the most trustworthy even more than Scalia.

In fact in one case I forget which, they were deliberating over anonymous political activism/donations and Scalia was arguing that it should be illegal to be anonymous and be politically active and Thomas asked what about the federalist papers?

Scalia then had an oh shit moment and joined Thomas.

609 On the plus side, a good friend just spent two weeks in Europe.

Her retelling of the conversations with Europeans that she interacted with show that she was smacked in the face with just how badly Europe has slid towards Islamic domination.

Loyalty is something decent people have.

Their only allegiance is to themselves and the continuation of the gravy train.

Sadly true.

I told the Mayor of our town, a teacher and a Democrat, that poverty in a community is linear with length of Democratic legislative control. And she should be ashamed to raise taxes every year she was on the City Commission.

She looked on uncomprehendingly.

Then I said that I control a small slice of the mill levy, and I lowered my own taxes. She ignored me after that.

It's sort of like telling a Barber while they are bleeding the patient that they are slowly killing them.

For being 'Progressive', their ideas never actually seem to evolve.

626 For those who missed it yesterday, there are at least three of us Morons, in three different TV viewing areas who have recently seen NBC news affiliates putting out short commercials claiming that in this time of not trusting the news, THEY are truly trustworthy.

Me thinks that the 'Fake News' label is beginning to hurt them, because it is a local branding effort, at the national level.

One of my favorite stations.

No, they carry it on some of their stations, but MeTV comes from Weigel Broadcasting out of Chicago.
