Thursday Night's ONT is Making Me Hungry

Welcome to Thursday night. How's tricks out there in Moronville? Looks to me like the job market is heating up:

Good Eats

Slow-Roasted, Twice-Fried Porterhouse Steak

Deep fry a steak? Inconceivable! However, this actually looks damn good. Couple of problems:

#1 It's huge. The recipe calls for a 3lb porterhouse. 3 lb of porterhouse certainly isn't a bad thing, but it isn't going to be cheap.

#2 It takes over a day to make this recipe. Not something you can whip up on the spur of the moment. I shared this with our resident gourmand CBD and he suggested skipping the whole freezing rig-a-marole and using butter infused with fat trimmed from well-aged beef instead of oil for the fry. That does indeed sound fantastic, but I find myself with a shortage of fat trimmed from well-aged beef at the moment.

Not Good Eats

From Jesse Kelly, who would have been an absolute stitch in Congress if he's won:

The New Red Hen Menu

Planned Parenthood platter $25

You may think you’ve made a mistake. Well feel free to send this one back anytime! Our butcher will take it out back and get rid of it.

Pasta Union $197

Honestly, pretty low quality. But for $50 more you can have better. Promise.

Pretty funny stuff. Don't worry, it's short.


Good Drinks

Did Whiskey Really Taste Better in the 1800s?

This is just a single experiment, but it turns out (according to the article) that whiskey shipped down the Mississippi and around Florida to New York tastes significantly better than whiskey from the same batch taken directly. Well duh. Everybody loves a good boat ride, why shouldn't whiskey?


Where's Hillary?


Another Hillary sighting in the news this week.

12 All CNN could talk about today was how these targeted attacks on the media by Trump would lead to something like this here. And what do we learn in just the few hours sine the shooting? We learned it had ZERO to do with journalism, and everything to do with cray cray. Full stop.

I really hate what the media and journalism has become.

Some meds and operations will do that to you.

they screw up your hormones and metabolism and unless you are really really watchful you'll be overweight before you know it and it's very difficult to lose.

123 Hi everyone, I could use some good personal advise right about now.

It feels that lately I can't go 2 hours without someone texting me or calling me. Convenience of living in the smart phone era I suppose. While I am grateful that people want to talk to me, I also need my alone time. People can also be very sensitive if you don't call or text them back right away and I'm not the best and being diplomatic.

Sometimes I just don't feel like talking on the phone at all.

What's the best way to explain to friends that I don't feel like being on the phone or that I won't be responding to texts all the time without them taking it personally? Usually when I say anything, it comes out the wrong way.

There are auto-responders for android phones. I've got one that activates when it shakes hands with my car's bluetooth and will respond to any text with "I'm driving and will contact you later." A similar voicemail message behind a call blocker like Mr. Number that sends everything straight to voicemail when you get a call (you can turn it off and on) might do the trick for phone calls.

Unfairly, men hold together a lot better than women do as we age. Partly because what makes us attractive is not youth and cuteness. Also: guys tend to look awful and gangly and unpleasant when women are at their most glowing and beautiful, so it all kinda evens out in the end.

202 Not to mention a potential restraining order for harassing and stalking likely making him a prohibited possessor.


But I got to show ID to purchase a lighter. Won't anyone think of the choom smoking minorities who don't have an ID?


Maryland has two types of "restraining orders". One is a "protective order" and requires the stalked victim be related, have had a sexual relationship, or be a minor.

The other is a "peace order". Peace orders just require evidence of harassment. They also don't mean shit. In one case, a jackass under a "peace order" to not contact his victim made THOUSANDS of Tweets directed at the victim, mailed him letters, and more, and the courts did nothing.

Since Ramos Nutcase had never touched his victim, they weren't related, and the victim is an adult, he would have gotten a "peace order", which, apparently, doesn't count as a domestic violence restraining order.

Kathleen Turner has rheumatoid arthritis, as well, which is something I remember reading with interest a while back, as I do to.

Now, Jack Lord, Steve McGarrett on Hawaii Five-0, most likely had it as well. I don't think they've ever confirmed that, but those of us who have it know the signs well.

You know that crazy way he'd hold a gun, with one hand wrapped around his wrist? That's a sign.

My horror at how she'd aged was balanced by my sort of admiration for aging at all and not seeking plastic surgery like most of Hollywood.

Behold a woman aging.

OT, but Asian ladies can look young for a long time. They could be 20, they could be 40. Then they look 80. I don't know why.

232 Ten Most Harmful Books of the 19th and 20th Centuries

Interesting that one of the honorable mentions was "On Liberty" by John Stuart Mill.

If you really want to understand why it deserves to be included amongst the other "harmful books", one should read James FitzJames Stephen's "Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity", which was a response and rebuke to "On Liberty".

"Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity" has one of the best no-nonsense expressions of the Conservative ethos that is unhindered by the more ethereal Enlightenment musings.

Indians take super good care of their homes and where they live, they just seemed to utterly lose that attitude outside their property. Like it didn't matter what happened elsewhere, so trash and feces and worse were just everywhere.

357 Don't forget about the effects of the salt air on the ocean-going casks of Bourbon...

Frankly, one wouldn't even have to "transport" the casks by sea... just set up a surplus freighter at anchor as a "Rack House".

Even at anchor though, it'd have to have a crew of guards rotating duty hours, to provide 24/7 protection.

A sight to see just offshore of the Galveston Jetty, is sometimes more than fifty or sixty major ships at anchor, lined up out to and across the horizon, all awaiting their turn to power up and cruise into the various ports and refinery docks between Galveston and all the way up the Houston Ship Channel.

That offshore anchorage has all of the sea-motion you could ask for, even though not underway.

After independence, India took the "f**k the wicked West" and tried to go all "traditional" while playing footsies with the Soviets (which is why Pakistan was a long-time U.S. ally).

They suffered for it and didn't start turning around until the '90's when they started emulating the West again.

Just imagine where they'd have been if they had eschewed "decolonization" and embraced all the benefits of the Raj while still striking out on their own unique path.

And still not as unified as one might think.

I worked with a Bengali speaking scientist who, even though he knew the language, refused to speak Hindi with other scientists and insisted on using English as a true neutral language.

The only reason that India (sans Pakistan and Bengladesh due to religious reasons) can exist as one country is because the English traditions, language, and influence of the Raj serve to unite them in an otherwise unattainable equality.

433 OK. Calling bullshit on something with the book list... Mein Kampf does NOT belong at #2, or even on the list at all.

The authors note that it was "originally ignored. But not after Hitler rose to power. According to the Simon Wiesenthal Center, there were 10 million copies in circulation by 1945."

This is true, but meaningless. Outside of the Nazi elite (who were already converted) almost no German read this book... it was something that you bought to show you were a good Fritz. It was un-fucking-readable.

In fact, if anything - it was for the good. None of the Germans read it, but the Western leaders slogged through this dumpster fire of a tome (I did as well, sadly) because it gave them insight into the scattered mind of the maniac they were fighting.

Meanwhile "Beyond Good and Evil" comes in at #9. #9!?!? It totally belongs at #2 behind the Manifesto. This book inspired the little bastard who wrote Mein Kampf, and countless other real and would-be monsters of the twentieth century to do their evil deeds.

They did a miniseries version recently, slightly updated tech but basically the same story.

529 Somebody mentioned A Boy and His Dog. I read it so many, many years ago, it totally slipped my mind.

So much of the sf written in those years was post-apocalyptic.I think that's why I quit reading sf for a long time -- it was just so damn depressing. IIRC, A Canticle For Leibowitz was what pushed me over the edge. Living in South Jersey, midway between D.C. and N.Y.C., with the Philadelphia boat yard ten minutes away was depressing enough without constantly reading about the aftermath.

Honestly 'Canticle' is one reason I'm Catholic.

I felt that The Satanic Bible was a gateway book, leading people, especially the "cool" kids, to the really ugly stuff. And the Anarchist's Cookbook was reputed to have a wealth of misinformation. I didn't mind the idiots blowing themselves up; it's just that they too often took innocent bystanders with them and I didn't want the guilt of knowing I was, to all intents and purposes, an accessory before the act.

Well, in a corn field, they're going to be the highest things around, and are sort of sharp and pointed, so a ground streamer will almost certainly originate from their if one forms in the corn field.

And, and inner tube protect you? Well, lightning can jump miles, a little piece of rubber is not going to make it blink.

Indeed 7200V from phase to ground on a local distribution line can do a nice number on a tires.

A lineman showed me a burned spot on their truck's tires where they had a little mishap with the bucket truck.

The tires sunk up in soft ground before they got their grounds tied to the truck frame, somehow, and let the bucket arm hit a phase.

Not enough current flowed to trip anything, and they happened to see the arcing. There was little burned spot on the tire where the current flowed into the dirt.

Ah. Time for my favorite excerpt from 'Tristram Shandy'. Mike Hammer's Cat is named for Tristram's Uncle Toby. Without going into great detail, Uncle Toby was wounded (upon his groin) by a cannon ball and, years later, has set out to figure out where the gun was sited.

Wall-O-Text Warning:

Towards the beginning of the third year, which was in August, ninety-nine, my uncle Toby found it necessary to understand a little of projectiles:—and having judged it best to draw his knowledge from the fountain-head, he began with N. Tartaglia, who it seems was the first man who detected the imposition of a cannon-ball’s doing all that mischief under the notion of a right line—This N. Tartaglia proved to my uncle Toby to be an impossible thing.

——Endless is the search of Truth.

No sooner was my uncle Toby satisfied which road the cannon-ball did not go, but he was insensibly led on, and resolved in his mind to enquire and find out which road the ball did go: For which purpose he was obliged to set off afresh with old Maltus, and studied him devoutly.—He proceeded next to Galileo and Torricellius, wherein, by certain Geometrical rules, infallibly laid down, he found the precise part to be a Parabola—or else an Hyperbola,—and that the parameter, or latus rectum, of the conic section of the said path, was to the quantity and amplitude in a direct ratio, as the whole line to the sine of double the angle of incidence, formed by the breech upon an horizontal plane;—and that the semiparameter,——stop! my dear uncle Toby——stop!—go not one foot farther into this thorny and bewildered track,—intricate are the steps! intricate are the mazes of this labyrinth! intricate are the troubles which the pursuit of this bewitching phantom Knowledge will bring upon thee.—O my uncle;—fly—fly, fly from it as from a serpent.——Is it fit——good-natured man! thou should’st sit up, with the wound upon thy groin, whole nights baking thy blood with hectic watchings?——Alas! ’twill exasperate thy symptoms,—check thy perspirations—evaporate thy spirits—waste thy animal strength,—dry up thy radical moisture, bring thee into a costive habit of body,——impair thy health,——and hasten all the infirmities of thy old age.——O my uncle! my uncle Toby.

614 The Oxford comma sure gets a lot of air time on the ONT. If you're ever at the University of Oxford, go to the Bodleian Library.

Almost up there with the Book of Kells at the Trinity University library, but with fewer crowds.

Helicopters can pick up a lot of static as well, and I've read of people getting injured and even killed from a massive discharge.

IIRC, one involved a helicopter landing on a ship. You need to make good electrical contact before you touch anything or get out.

673 As to the Vegas shooter's relative lethality.

Let's imagine, morbidly, that he had topped off the tanks to his Cessna 152, an admittedly "pedestrian" grade of civil aircraft.

Flying into the crowd at a shallow dive, let's say about a three-degree final... with full tanks and no flare to landing... think he would've killed far more than the 58 accounted for from the "sniper's perch?"

I'm thinking about 200 to 300 dead from the above scenario, minimum.

If running up the score was the goal, this was well within his grasp.

Funny though, how all the anti-gun propaganda from 'Vegas suddenly STOPPED, as if a billion voices cried out at once, in sudden anguish?

What, I heard that line somewhere once, before. Why you judge me like that, brah?

That reminds of me of working on very HV transmission lines. You know 750kV big boys and that class.

One method is via helicopter. You drop a little work platform down to the line and work it hot. Now here, rather than grounding, you "hot" it. You want to get the helicopter and work platform to the same potential as the hot phase.

And it's quite tricky. They slowly approach the phase with a little "wand". This will draw a slight arc, and make sure it directs that first arc to the wand. Note this is just charging current. But it would be enough to kill a man.

Now, they draw an arc, then touch the wand to the phase and hold it. They then attach a clamp to the platform, holding it equipotential with the phase.

There are other approaches, but the above is the safest and easiest.

I have witnessed this several times, in reference to the High Tension lines which bring Teh Power from the Mainland onto this here Island.

As I have observed, and been informed, they have to clean off the dust which has been adhered to the insulators due to the humid, salty air.

If they don't do that periodically, the resultant build up of dust, salt and grime becomes sufficiently conductive as to result in...

"Insulator? What insulator? I don't see no insulator here?".

He would even practice it on a live wire to show some of us.

737 Stringer, that's quite the story - and indeed must have been quite the trip.


Re Peiper, there is that incident (forget the town - near the high-water mark for his Kampfgruppe at the Bulge) where the local mayor came up and described how the locals had cared for a downed Luftwaffe reconnaissance crew - and no civilians were killed.


But one suspects that a guy doesn't become the star of the "blowtorch battalion" - on the eastern front - without having pretty dirty hands.

738 time for bed for me too. If you peek outside you will not only see a wonderful full moon but you'll also see a brilliant and bright red Mars rising in the east. Worth a look; Mars is at the closest approach to Earth that it ever makes, and because of that this is the brightest Mars has been to us in 15 years. Worth a peek! and Jupiter is on the other side of sky now, with Saturn about in the middle. A nice night for planet-gazing!

741 So, granted that the Annapolis shooting was a personal grudge by a madman which has nothing to do with politics, I'm curious if anyone has uncovered any troll-worthy facts about the shooter anyway, just so we can taunt the Left with them.

He looks like a grunge-Satanist, for starters. And he has an Hispanic last name. So he's already a good candidate to be a registered Democrat. What else do we know about him (aside from the stalking and shooting and lawsuits and so forth), regardless of how irrelevant they may be?

742 Next time we go round-and-round about Who Can't Make Me Put on A Necktie, or Why I Can Go Out in My Jammie-Pants if I Damnwell Fell like It, I will be sure to remind a couple folks here about their high sartorial standards.


George Roby Dempster was mayor and city manager of Knoxville, an irascible old-fashioned Democrat, and partner with his brothers in a railroad construction company. He invented the "Dempster-Dumpster."

The ones I remember had a quarter-circle rocker and a series of studs and holes that kept them locked from dumping until you were ready. They were almost always mounted on bare truck frames, and were often loaded with scrap metal. These modern Waste Management things must weigh about a third as much.

We had a mistaken folk etymology around here, because there used to be a truck-body maker named Dempsey, and it just did not make sense that they would not make the Dempster Dumpster. But, they didn't.

Now, this demonstrates the difficulty in interrupting HV. Note that arc was drawn simply from the charging current of the line downstream. It was not under load.

That's a wispy low current arc. A high current arc, well, that would saturate the light sensors in the camera. :-)

Here's the other approach, not bonding, but just using insulating suits (with inner conductors to provide a Faraday cage effect for the lineman.

Note them drawing arcs to their gloves.

Again, these are very low current charging current arcs from equalizing the potential.

Mine are bonded together with a braided copper cable about 3/8" in diameter. It's not solid, more like the old "chinese finger trap", a braided tube. Still would pass 500 amps easily enough. And a ground rod at each end of the building.

So, not a trivial installation. I paid a pro to do it. Mainly because I don't like clambering about on steep-pitched roofs.

Meanwhile, when are we ever going to learn anything about the Vegas gunman? Tucker did a small bit on it last night with a video that showed cops standing around in a hallway--while the shooting was going on!! WTH?!
Posted by: IrishEi

They were on the floor below the shooting, one cop and a trainee. They were cautious, and knew they were close. As soon, as they had a location they moved to it - but hit the barricade. Not Parkland.

830 I think it was yesterday that the ape thread had a photo of two young ladies holding ARs. One wore a T-shirt that read, "A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone".

Or in the hallway, apparently.

831 Morning, 'rons and 'ronettes.

My BP is bad enough without watching CNN, but I imagine their BPs are even worse. They must be so pissed that they can't pin this shooting on Trump.

And of course, the useless tools on WRKOs morning show were fully on board with spouting out the "moral equivalency" crap. Reminds me why I stopped listening to those two nickelfuckers.

Well, I bet he's holding on to a lot of pizza, too.

He is secretly overjoyed, because he is making a fortune traipsing around being the jerk he is.
This is all show business.

I'm sure they spent plenty of time implying that Trump "created the climate" with his criticism of the media.
