I Hanker Fer A Hunk O' ONTs!

Time for Timer! Anybody remember that? Just part and parcel of growing up American in the 70s. I'm pretty sure Timer could take Peter Puck in a fight, I mean, his cane was a gun after all.

Woman accused of impersonating prosecutor, dropping criminal charges against herself

The examiner saw a notice in Landon’s court file that prosecutors had dropped charges; the examiner wanted to know if the examination should go forward.

“The file purported to contain a nolle prosequi (drop the charges) filed by Assistant County Attorney Patrice Casian, but it quickly became evident to the State that the document, as well as other documents in the file, had been filed fraudulently,” wrote Superior Court Judge David Anderson in a ruling regarding the case.
Indictments allege Landon also filed an order falsifying a decision of retired Superior Court Judge Gillian Abramson to waive filing fees in a lawsuit she brought against Hillsborough County. And she allegedly filed an order on behalf of a relative to halt guardianship proceedings involving Landon’s child.

If this was fiction, we'd all be rooting for her to succeed.

People Confess Their Most Horrific Workplace Mistakes


Typical click bait, but not not bad clickbait. (I define “bad” click bait as stories that meander across multiple pages, obviously harvesting page views. Also sites with a jillion pop ups and other things that interfere with just reading the story) Some of these are stupid, some funny. A surprising number are from docs, which is...scary. But this one...this one....I can't even imagine. How horrible for everyone involved.

My brother is a surgeon, and during part of his residency, he had to work in the pediatric unit. He was working with two newborns. One was getting much better and fighting for life. He was going to make it just fine. The other baby was hours from death. He wasn’t going to make it. My brother was in charge of informing the families.


My brother realized about 15 minutes later that he had mixed up the families. He told the family with the healthy baby that their baby wasn’t going to make it, and he told the family with the dying baby that their baby was going to be just fine. He then had to go back out to the families and explain the situation to them.


How devastating to be given a glimmer of hope and have it ripped away from you not even an hour later. That was the most upset I’ve heard my brother. He felt destroyed.

Devastating.


Balls The Size Of The Ross Ice Shelf

Leonid Rogozov

He's the Soviet surgeon who, in 1961, found himself at a research base on Antarctica. He was serving as the doctor to an expedition of 12 men, and on April 29, one of the men got sick with appendicitis. It was apparent that Rogozov had to operate or the man would die. Normally, this would be quite routine except for one thing. The man with the inflamed appendix, the man who was so sick that he was about to die, was Rogozov himself.

Rogozov then proceeded to do what any man who had been nursed by bears lactating vodka as a child would do. He sliced himself open, removed his own appendix, then sewed himself back up and recovered fully.

Bad. Ass.


DUNK!

Not bad, kid.

36 It's not uncommon knowledge that Trudeau's wife went after him and married him because she knew he was going places because of his last name.



She also did a Hillary, in that before he got into federal politics she went exclusively by her maiden name and then tacked Trudeau on when it was deemed politically expedient.

Yes, it got a might bit breezy this morning in Greenville County. It blew over a big pecan tree in my folks yard some time this morning. They didn't even hear it.

Of all the trees that could've fallen, this one was the best one. It fell in an open section of the front yard and did no damage to anything else.

A big root broke from the force, and it just toppled over, ripping a bit of chunk of ground out with it.

I've got some chain-sawing to do tomorrow. Or some time. Maybe next week. Maybe Dec. Maybe next year....

Posted by: Cicero (@cicero) at October 29, 2020 10:09 PM (wPVhA)


I had a friend who used to mention how kettle corn - and I'll have to take her word for this - tastes like sweaty balls. She always said this whenever the subject of popcorn came up. Didn't even have to be kettle corn.

I don't know why. I don't think she was trying to disgust anyone or scandalize anyone. Or impress anyone. It was just an observation she always made, even though people would say, "yeah, you always say that". It was like being in on the highway with your dad, whenever you pass an unfinished or disused off-ramp and he says, "guess they changed their minds!" even though you always pass it and it never gets any funnier.

She was the dad-joke version of kettle corn and sweaty balls, I guess.

93 I don't think I could ever be an anesthesiologist. When I made mistakes at work, that meant typos, or not including someone on an email, When they make a mistake, someone can end up in a coma.

Medical people have always told me: people worry about whether or not their surgeon is good. That's important, but you also need to check out the guy or woman who's putting you under - that's even more important.

100 My paranormal experience wasn't really mine.

I was working at the Lighthouse Inn in New London, CT. They had a large, sweeping staircase. Back in the 40s there was a wedding and the bride was going to come down the staircase to the large foyer for the ceremony. She fell, broke her neck and died. Supposedly her ghost haunted the place.

I never saw her, but one night I was working the front desk. The large dining room was closed, but the lounge was open for dinner. We only had one waiter working, and he was walking back and forth from the lounge at one end of the building to the kitchen at the other end.

At one point, he stopped at the desk and asked what the lady in the dining room wanted. I wracked my brain trying to remember who he was talking about, since it was really quiet and I didn't remember seeing anybody. He got frustrated with me and said, "the lady in the dining room. The one in the white dress. What did she want?" I told him about the ghost story and said he must have seen her. He was so freaked out I thought he was going to quit on the spot.

A few years later the inn was on one of those ghost hunting shows. I wasn't working there by then though.

Given Marvel has gone near full woke it is probably just the ability to post a youtube video telling the readers you are sorry for all the racist crime you committed, and about your white privilege of knowing how to read and being able to afford to buy comics.

We were staying at my brother's lake house and had been partying with family a few days before the wedding. We got back to the house late but we all wanted more cocktails before bed so we were sitting in the living room telling 2 sentence horror stories. We ended up scaring each other and finally went to bed. My son and his wife were in the back bedroom and my dad was in the bedroom next to them across from the bathroom. I was in the front bedroom. I heard my son screaming, my dad yelling. I woke up, couldn't remember where I was or how to get out of the room. Finally ran down the hall to my dads room. He had gotten up to go to the bathroom, my son half heard him, was still rattled from the horror stories and thought dad was a monster coming after him. I couldn't stop laughing. Everyone finally calmed down enough to go back to bed. Of course, everyone heard about it at the wedding the next day.

205 Supernatural shit:

My mother came into my bedroom while I was asleep and I woke up to see her standing by my bed - at the same time she died 1800 miles away.

In the first few months after he died, I would see my father standing under a big tree on my farm where he liked to go to smoke his cigarettes when he was still alive. Three days after he died he came to me in a dream and told me he was alright and not to worry about him anymore.

I've seen a mist roll through my barn, and fade away in the spot where my father in law liked to sit and play with my barn cats.

There is an old tinny sounding radio (think 1970's clock radio) that played in my daughter's bedroom in the old house before we tore it down. We would hear it out in the living room, go in to find out where it was coming from, and when we opened the door it stops.

My daughter and I have both seen the same pioneer-era man walk up the path that leads from the old wagon trail up to the front door of our farmhouse. When we sprint over to see what he's doing, he is gone. We just discussed this for the first time last year. She saw him a lot when she was younger, but didn't want to tell me because she was afraid i would think she was crazy. I never told her because I didn't want to scare her with ghost stories. We haven't seen him since we tore the old house down and built a new one a few hundred feet away.

Posted by: Emmie at October 29, 2020 10:30 PM (4JM5Y)


I haven't had a flu shot in more than five years. I ALWAYS have an immediate reaction to the shot, which includes a fever, aches and a sharp headache. The reaction lasts about four hours.

I have friends who get the same reaction.

But it's not because of the reaction that I don't get the flu shot.

It's because medical personal tell me that it's impossible to have a reaction.

So they are either lying to me, or they don't know what the hell they're injecting me with.

But I remain worried. I think they were so sure they had it in the bag in 2016 that they didn't pull out all the cheating stops. I think this because H Clinton is not president.

I don't think they'll make the same mistake this year.

On the other hand, Trump will fight anything that looks fraudulent. Unlike Romney or McCain.

Biden supporters have no shame. I know a number of them, living here behind enemy lines. I find myself having trouble giving them a basic level of respect I would give any human being that is not stabbing me or stealing from me.

After winning his second term, Trump has to get Barr (or some no-name US District Attorney from a Red State he can trust) to file charges against the entire Biden Crime Family nonsense.

If he doesn't, even he loses credibility. And credibility anywhere in the Federal government these days is getting rarer than a case of 9mm ammo.

263 222 Biden is campaigning in states he won't win for two reasons...
1. House and Senate races. Of course, if he isn't popular enough to win those states, maybe his 'help' won't be much help for those races.
B. Sending some of that campaign cash to local campaign workers.

That's why LightBringer was in Ann Arbor (but not Detroit) for Hillary back on Monday in 2016. Univ profs will throw money into his swill, the 'hood won't.

266 Rogozov then proceeded to do what any man who had been nursed by bears lactating vodka as a child would do. He sliced himself open, removed his own appendix, then sewed himself back up and recovered fully.

*************

There's more to this story.

I heard that the guy had never performed that particular operation before, so was relying on a surgery textbook from the station's small medical library, planning to follow the step-by-step instructions and illustrations. Unfortunately, someone had defaced the section of the book that covered that specific operation. Several pages at the back of the book were missing. Yep, you guessed it, someone had already removed the appendix!

273 One of my freaky experiences revolved around a band I was in years ago. Just gonna say it, the singer was found dead in his trunk. This was before I was in the band, but I heard of weird things. One night at practice the other guitar player's amp head (marshall) just up and jumped off the stack of speaker cabs and came crashing down. We were just standing around talking and this thing takes a leap. I was like holy shit, there had to be an explanation, right? RIGHT??. Yeah... 2 weeks later MY amp does the same thing. We're standing around taking a break and there it goes, just leaps off the stack of speaker cabinets. A few months later at a gig the other guitar player's head goes flying fazzini. The gear was set up, we were standing at the edge going over the set list and we hear a crash. We turned around and there it was laying on the ground. They went to visit the grave after that. I didn't go, because I didn't know him, but when they came back they weren't right. The bass player starts ranting about the ground around the grave being warm, sky going dark, wind, etc, then it cleared up as fast as it got dark. I didn't ask what they said, but whatever they did worked because that was the last of it. That was some fucked up shit.

277 Never seen any ghosts. Just a spooky real-estate story.

My wife and I were looking at a house to buy in the Wichita KS riverside area. For sale by owner. Decent enough looking house. The owner selling the house towards the end took us to a crawl space where he took the time to tell us that a previous owner kept an insane older Pawnee medicine woman locked up and the neighbors could HEAR HER SCREAMING EVERY NIGHT TILL SHE DIED!!

Oh, thank you so much for that charming story sir and showing us your lovely house we're just going out to our car to discuss things (doors slam, ignition, tires screech)

Flight 401 was an Eastern Airlines L-1011 that crashed in The Everglades when the flight crew was trying to fix a landing gear warning light and didn't know the autopilot was disengaged.

Supposedly the plane had some salvageable parts, particularly galley ovens that were refitted to other 1011's. Crew started seeing dead members of the flight crew on planes that were using parts from the crashed plane.

👻 The mannequin that changed positions on its own in the night. A household favorite for years. Figured it wasn't really the mannequin, just the house ghost messing with us.

300 I have plenty of paranormal encounters, but the most chilling story I have was a real-world one.

When I was 13 and my brother was 10, we were home alone after school before my parents got home from work. A man approached our front door and rang the doorbell. The screen door was closed (not locked) and so I opened the big door a crack to speak with him. He was indistinct in appearance, sandy hair, glasses, medium build.

In a very calm, friendly, almost sing-songy voice he said "Hello boys, are your parents home?"

My brother and I looked at each other for a moment and I answered him "Not yet".

In a flat voice, totally unlike his prior cheerful tone, he hissed out, "Good." Whereupon he jerked the screen door open and began to push his way inside the house.

At once, my brother and I put all our combined weight against the big door (owing more to reaction time than strength - we were lightning-fast that day), forced it shut, and threw the deadbolt, all in less time than it takes to read this paragraph.

At this point, the man calmly stepped back, turned, and, without looking over his shoulder, began to casually walk around the side of the house. Once again, without speaking or thinking, my brother raced to one patio door, and I to the other, and threw the locks on those too.

Right away, we could see the man turn the back corner of the house, still walking and nonchalant, no hurry in the world. He pulled first on one patio door, then the other. He paused, looked into the window, turned, and at that same unhurried place, calmly walked through our backyard, through our neighbor's sideyard, and disappeared into the nieghborhood in an entirely different direction that he had come from.

That was nearly 35 years ago, and I still get jittery thinking about it. His car was parked far away from where he planned to enter our house. He knew we were home alone at that time. He knew we had two doors on the rear side of the house. He knew we had no neighbors directly across the street from us, so he could not be seen attempting to enter the home.

I cannot even imagine (yes I can) what he was going to do when he came in the house. Robbery was not the drill or he would have parked closer and/or waited until no one was home.

True story.

He used to sit out on his front porch. He had a nasty mongrel type dog, if you drove up in the driveway the dog would charge at you, growl, snarl, bare his teeth, the whole bit.
So the visitor rolled down his window of his car, and asks "Hey, Bob, does your dog bite?"

*******************

Well most people in the UK are too wound up with the scamdemic and lockdown tyranny at the minute to even contemplate the US election.
And there are definate signs of pushback to that tyranny too, and not small ones either.

Anyone who would rely on the globalist media machine, as epitomised by the B B fucken C, as it's always called around here, will doubtless think that Trump will be bodily removed from office for baby eating by a righteous horde of socially aware activists of all colours and 64 genders.

But a fast growing number are now joining the likes of me in disbelieving anything that drops from the flapping gummed gibbering lying maws of those mendacious cocktickling cumguzzlers.
If they tell you up is up then you can be damn sure it's time to hit the deck to look for clouds.

It seems more and more likely to me that Trump will win handsomely. Whether it will be 'Reagan in '80' sized handsomely, I still doubt, but I would not be at all surprised to be proved wrong there either.

In the area that I live - if transplanted by some magic across the pond - would probably be a safe Republican voting area.
Not that 'Republican means the same here as it does there. It's very far from being Republican in the local sense. Dangerously so. Irish Republicans here are as rare as rocking horse shite and as at risk as an oiled up boy scout at a San Francisco Democratic fundraiser in a bath house.

But then Irish Republican is pretty much a political polar opposite of American Republican. Pre globalism anyway.

In fact if the north of county Down was magicked across to, say, Appalachia, there would be very little genetic or surname noticing differences as, I believe, that much if not most of the population of that region originally hailed from this area and other places around Ulster.
For example, my wife's maiden name is a pretty rare Ulster Scots surname and the only two areas of the globe where it is found are northern County Down and eastern Tennessee.

The local two big towns, one, mostly blue collar, would be solid Trump country, easily.
The other bigger town would be half Trump (the southern working class part of the town) while the other quite wealthy part would be a mixture of RINO Republicans, Never Trumpers and Libtard Dems.
And the rural hinterland and villages around would be so Trump red as to make rural Texas look like Brooklyn.

I'm of course making a huge leap of conflating the political spectrum of local voting patterns to American ones. But - for the local area I'm talking about, at least - I'm pretty sure I'm not far wrong.

I hope that might give you some answer. Even if it wasn't one to the question that you asked. lol.

315 OK people. I'm going to tell you the most supernatural story I've got.

I used to work in the oil industry. Think one of the biggest.

Everyone in my department was convinced H would win. Management was positive H would win. They backed it up by making HUGE corporate PAC donations to her.

I was certain, from early in the campaign, that not only would Trump win the primary, he would win the general going away. I wavered one day, four days out from the election, but quickly went back to my gut feeling.

I told my boss, the assistant boss, anyone who would listen that Trump was going to win. Most of the people I worked with were overpaid/overeducated country club Republicans who couldn't understand ordinary people. I told them ordinary people were sick of their sh!t and being pushed around, and that's why Trump would win. I couldn't explain it other than that, but I knew he would win.

They didn't believe me.

The day after election day, assistant boss came into my office and said he was in a meeting with upper management that morning, and while they were scratching their heads trying to figure out where they went wrong. The polls! The media! Everyone said she would win.

Assistant boss said he told the whole room, made up of the top 35 execs in the company (including the chairman), that only one person in the entire company correctly understood the American electorate. And that one person was a nobody in a corporate services department.

They never learned from their mistakes, and I don't work there anymore.

Trump is going to win going away. If he doesn't, it's war, because the other side has engineered an Al Franken level cheat.

386 My 88-yr-old father called me on a Tuesday from 3000 miles away to tell me that my 84-yr-old mother, who had been in the hospital for a while, was dying. I shed some tears. Friday evening he called to tell me she had passed away. I didn't think much more about it, she had been in pain, had a good life, death comes for us all. That night I laid down to sleep, I presume you know that time between awake and asleep when you lay there thinking and the subconscious rolls in and you no longer have to think because you mind rolls away on its own going into dreamland. Just as my mind started to roll on its own I heard the loud smacking of bare feet and saw my mother standing there, in a dark room, wearing a long thin white night dress. I had a quick crystal-clear look at her profile, head bowed, a young her, old-fashioned hairstyle, then she went out the door into pitch black.

I popped up wide awake. I don't believe in ghosts, at all. I think it was a trick of the mind, perhaps my oldest memory, from my crib. My mind telling me I should be thinking more of my mother on the day of her death?

Anyway, closest I've got to a ghost story.

387 I don't have any supernatural stories that lend themselves to narrative but when I was a kid I used to sometimes see, sometimes more sense than see, dark presences in the house. Used to have a LOT of bad nightmares too. Those changed after we moved. Could be a coincidence. Then again, could be something else.

404 They need to indicate the correct part. A few years ago I tripped and broke both bones below the knee, needed surgery to install hardware to keep the pieces together. I was in the Univ of Mich hospital (renowned as a teaching hospital, dontcha know). THREE times I had to correct the interns/residents etc as to which leg it was. Each person typed it into the record and it still was wrong when the surgeon came in. He finally wrote Wrong Leg on the unijured leg.

Maybe I should have started with a thinner guard, but I've heard of some people grinding right through them in a short time.

425 AF - I've used a mouth guard for years. I used to use the Sleep Right brand; it's more of a soft plastic with pads for your molars and a strap that goes around your lower front teeth.

I switched over to a custom one from my dentist, though it was about 5-6 times more expensive. It took two visits to get it to fit right, but it works fine.

Frankly, the Sleep Right one worked fairly well, if you don't want to spend a lot of money. They have one that's heavy duty, so it takes longer to chew your way through.

Your molars will thank you.

431 In 1980 I was stopped by a sheriff's deputy in California on the way from Escondido to San Diego. I was in a rental, behaving myself for once, and baffled as to why he'd stopped me. He didn't ask for my license. He asked where I was going. I told him I had a flight to catch and was expected at a friend's office in Balboa Park for good-byes before leaving. He wished me a nice day, walked back to his car and left. I proceeded down the road.

About six years later hubby and I were watching a 60 Minutes segment about a CA sheriff's deputy who was a serial killer.

I have. Give it some more time and you'll get used to it. You may even want to wear it a bit during the daytime to help adjust.

438 It isn't a ghost story, but Grandpa had a story that one of his relatives got married, and the wedding party decided to race the newlyweds out of town, one of the cars rolled and his cousin, who had the same name, Robert, died in the accident.
Another cousin ran home and told Grandpa's Uncle that "Bob was just killed in a car wreck" and he hurried down and met the ambulance as it was about to head to the hospital.
He got in the back of the ambulance and rode to the county hospital with what he thought was his nephew, my grandfather Bob, and only when they got to the hospital did he realized that he had been riding with the body of his son.

After the funeral, me and my dad are alone in the house talking and then for two to three minutes one of her scented candles smelled like it was cranked up to eleven even though it wasn't lit, nor had it been lit for at least a week.

461 Is that an original classic, or a retro copy?


-

The Allard is original I'm guessing. I'd have to pursue a copy (not altogether bad since big engine) because I don't think even 100 were made.

I once met a man who owned one at a fancypants car show a decade or so ago. I was like a little kid when I saw it in person.

468 Our house is 102 years old. We know the two immediately previous owners, and both said the house had ghosts. They also said they were benevolent ghosts.

Daughter #2 is our tomboy and has always loved to be outside. Wife is gardening one day and put that daughter in one of those big flat hammocks so she could look up and watch the leaves rustle on the oak tree. (The baby is only three months old and has never tried to turn over.)

Suddenly, my wife hears a little noise and looks up just in time to see the hammock flip over on our concrete front porch. She rushes up the steps, expecting the worst. The baby is lying on her blanket on the porch, not upset at all. My wife can't figure out how a baby lying on a blanket can flip out and still be lying on the blanket. Worse, since the baby isn't crying she fears a severe head trauma.

She calls me out of my home office and I run out to the porch. I examine the baby, who looks perfectly fine to me.

My wife and I are completely perplexed, when our 3 y.o. daughter walks out the front door. She had been taking a nap in the second floor bedroom above the location of the hammock. She comes up to us with a big smile on her face and tells us she woke up because she saw an angel fly past her window. She wants to know if we saw the angel too, since we were right there in the spot the angel was flying towards.

That guy who was murdering women in the state parks out west, about 15 or 20 years ago?

My late friend Jean and her family were staying at a park, and her husband saw a man continually eyeing their two teenage daughters. On tv that night, her husband saw that he was the man being sought for the murders.

They hightailed it out of there on the spot.

So I watch the series Supernatural, where they deal with killing ghosts demons witches monsters. I think the episodes that can be the creepiest are the ones where they think they're pursuing something and it winds up just being regular people that are the sickos doing the killing. That has to play on this fact, that even in fiction where vampires and werewolves exist its more disturbing when its just a man doing it.

It happened about 1925, so a lot of the sad is gone. Now it would be "Southern Gothic" if it hadn't happened around Centralia Washington.

Grandpa also sold Fords out of Olympia and had stories about taking new cars out on dates to drinking parties during Prohibition. One of the local college football stars puked his bootleg liquor on a fender and it peeled the paint off and Grandpa had to pay to have the car repainted.

that isn't a ghost story either, in spite of malevolent spirits being involved

Very interesting. There is a great book by an American historian named David Hackett Fischer called "Albion's Seed" about the four great British migrations to the US colonies that formed the template for America and still influence our politics. The last was the migration of what is commonly (and inaccurately) called the "Scots-Irish" in the US but Fischer calls the borderers - the people who came from Ulster and the Scottish-Irish border country. They came here and settled in the backwoods from NH to Georgia and later settled Texas and much of the west.

It's a fascinating read, since Fischer traces the cultural continuities of the settlers and how they adapted to a much different environment.

I just enjoyed a very racist Carol Burnett show on MeTV. Harvey and Tim did a Japanese restaurant sketch. Remember that fad where the Japanese chef would cook at this grill-table where he did all this fancy knife and chopping work? I went to one of those as a kid.

Anyway, Tim was a busboy who tried to be the chef when one of them tripped. Much hilarity ensued.

They were both doing fake Jap talk, "Ahhhh so! Waki waki, socki socki". Socki sockie? Ahhh. Then Tim punches Harvey in the face.

I just laughed out loud imagining the woke snowflakes of today having meltdowns watching that.

498 How many of you have had paranormal experiences, and what were they?
---

I helped a friend with a fixer-upper that turned out to be haunted and a ton of weird shit happened while he owned it. We'd measure twice and cut once and stuff wouldn't fit so we'd recheck the measurements and they'd be right, but still not match in place. We tore down boards on a wall that was getting drywall eventually over two nights, and came back to find one inch holes in the bottom row of boards evenly spaced between the joists that had definitely not been there originally.


One time we were in separate rooms and I was musing about something random and couldn't figure out the answer to a question and he shouted the answer from downstairs. I asked him why and he said he had heard me shout the question at him.

One time we took apart a dresser in what was going to be his daughters' room, and one of the latches from the top part swung down while we were setting it down and punctured the pressure board on the floor and a wet spot expanded for several minutes like it was bleeding. On another occasion, we were cleaning up after some work in that room, and an air conditioning window unit we had left in the middle of the room rocked back and forth for a minute while we watched it.


Another time when we arrived, he took a picture as a pre-shot since we were doing some exterior painting. And texted him back asking who was going through the kitchen door. He replied that it was me (methos). She then texted back wondering how that could be me when I was upstairs in the girls room. I've seen the image and sure enough, there's a guy standing in the bedroom window. The image has since disappeared from both their cell phones and neither intentionally deleted it.

Finally during the deep freeze two winters ago, the plumbing in the upstairs bathroom broke, and the electric pump just kept sending well water into the house until the fourth foot of water in the basement shorted out the electricity. When he was able to get to the house, he found a quarter inch of ice on every surface *except* the bathroom where the leak occurred. In the process of repairing the damage he found evidence of other old damage and gave up on the place after 4 years of weekends of work.

There was some weirdness in the sale too, where the buyer needed it before New Years Eve, and the banks involved agreed to the sale except for a detail of cash flow they needed to work out that no one wanted to authorize until literally the last minute, when the necessary paperwork showed up at the buyer's bank, and my friend's bank couldn't track down who had sent it.

499 My Mom grew up in New England and loved antiques. Our house was mostly decorated with them, from little brass knicknacks to early colonial furniture. One of the things she did, when we kids were sick and in bed napping, was to leave one of the small antique hand bells next to our bed, in case we needed something.

Many years later, when I was a young adult, my Mom died relatively young of late stage cancer in our house. After the funeral home morticians had taken her away, my Dad, brother, and I were standing in the kitchen, dazed and in shock. I remember hearing, very distinctly, a small bell ringing. And knowing she had gotten her wings.

Yeah, I think that's why I like it so much. It *was* a race car, and the marque won a sh*tload of races against the big boys in the '40s and '50s. Shelby raced one for them, and the influence of the small British car with big-ass American engine can probably be traced back to his time with them. You can see his natural evolution into developing the Cobra if you squint a little.

Shelby's Allard is still being raced in historic events, which I love:

Several years ago, a co-worker of mine told me a story about her neighbors, who had lived in Colorado for a while back in the late 60's -early 70's. They were sking in Aspen with their then-17 year old daughter and hanging out at the lodge and they struck up a conversation with the young guy sitting next to them, who was very charming. Their daughter was quite taken with him. It was very pleasant and then they said their goodbyes and that was the end of things.

A few years later, they were watching the news and their daughter said, "Hey look! Remember that guy we met in Aspen? That's him."

It was Ted Bundy.

522 I'm scared to friggin' death of enough living people - like the entire Dem party, for starters - to worry about the paranormal.

When I was little, I was afraid of cemeteries. My dad told me, "Honey, it's not the dead you have to fear. It's the living."

Dad was wise.

523 Methos, great story and weird stuff. But...

We'd measure twice and cut once and stuff wouldn't fit so we'd recheck the measurements and they'd be right, but still not match in place.

There actually is a semi-rational explanation for this: nothing in the house was "plumb." I've read that some old homes have zero number of true 90-degree angles anymore, because everything has been shaken one way or the other so many times in the decades since they were built.

IDK about you, but I was a trained shot when I was eight years old. I knew where the guns were, and how to load them, and how to use them.

While I might not have had the wherewithal to shoot someone, I sure as hell could have scared him and I certainly would have squeezed off a round or two to bring attention right quick.

A few months after the Fukushima reactor disaster, and tidal wave, in Hokkaido, so the story goes, a cabbie picked up an odd fare one night-- a pale looking young woman who got in the back of the cab without saying a word. She gave the cabbie an address. The cabbie said, "I'm sorry, miss, but that whole village was washed out to..." There was no-one in the back of the cab.

559 You should maybe check out the Paranormal YouTube channel, Nukes Top 5.
He collects purported paranormal videos from around the internet and gives you a vid of usually five every week.

Arab ghostbusters are surpringly entertaining and Chinese ones believe in out bad adding the spirits.

He doesn't state whether any of them a real or not, as his standard pay off line goes, "Genuine ghost caught on camera or just an elaborate hoax? You decide."

I'd say that the big majority of them are:
Obviously people being mistaken. If you're gonna poke around an old abandoned house late at night then you're gonna run into homeless guys, raccoons and vermin are a thing, and, dude, that's your shadow.

Or hoaxs, whether staged by the ones shooting it or a trick played on them by someone.

But there's always enough intriguing ones and a few "what the actual fuck?!!" genuinely spooky baffling ones, to keep you watching.

One that particularly comes to mind is the Paraguayan news crew who picked up unearthly children's screams of terror on the soundtrack of a live news report at a house in which a family was murdered by the father just months before. The sounds were not heard at the scene but on the TV's of those watching the live broadcast. Jesus, that one made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

Anyway, here's the link to his channel, it's fun.

My grandfather was a carpenter, and a real one. He gave up house building because he couldn't get satisfactory wood--in 1928. So, a perfectionist. He went into cabinet making so he could pick each piece.

He built his wife a house in Renton, just south of Seattle. He built it like a cabinet, with joinery and select woods. When they put in the freeway, he moved that house uphill a block so they wouldn't destroy it.

There was not one crack in the plaster, one door that stuck, or even a popped joint. And it was square, plumb and level, all at once.

After the FBI building in Oklahoma City was bombed in 1995, my grandmothers younger brother and his wife spent a lot time there volunteering with clean up. They own a glass shop there and they were checking if any businesses needed help with getting glass replaced for free. Anyway they were taking a lot of pictures of the area and a picture of the FBI building was striking. There were these bright figures made of light with what looked like wings spread wide. They gave me the picture to take to my CCD class. But the day of my class I took the photo out of the envelope, and it was completely white. I've never seen anything like that before or after.

Very old houses might not have been plumb and square and flat to begin with, but just as close as they could get.

My grandmother's old house, which burned down in the '90s was built on a foundation of rock piers. It was built around the 1900s, IRC. And it was built without power tools.

They'd dig out holes for the piers, and stack flat rock, as flat as they could find, and they'd get it as close to level as they could. It was perfect, but close.

And then the framing was done with hand saws.

Just imagine what it was like to do all the work with hand tools.

We have long generations. He built the first Sears Roebuck catalog store in Nebraska. He logged in Wisconsin, where he met his bride.

The best part is that, while he was about 20 years her senior, he was the baby of his family, and his dad had another family he left behind in Norway and never told anyone about until his death bed. So, I have a great grandfather who was born literally aeons ago, and a whole missing branch of the family who are filthy Scandies.

It's silly beyond a doubt.
The people outside don't want to go in,
And the people inside can't get out.

588 This isn't exactly a ghost story but I have had two extraordinary vivid dreams about the dead.

First was a dream where I was entering my childhood home and my late parents were sitting there and everything looked exactly like it did when I was a teenager. They were smiling at me. There was someone looking out the window with her back to me. She turned around and my mom said, "I'd like you to meet Diane. You haven't seen her for a long time."

Diane was my twin. She died when we were 13 hours old.

That dream still gives me a warm feeling.

The other dream was funny. I answered the phone and it was mom calling from heaven. I said (in a very matter of fact way) "how do you like it there?"

She said, "it's OK, except they don't give you any money here."

(Mom loved to shop, so it sounded just like something she would say.)

Ugh. I made it about halfway through this. Had to quit when my heart started to go pitty-pat and my brain started tapes that don't ever need to be played again.


I did indeed get off lightly. Thanks for the perspective.

Yeah, I had gotten to that point in the series, but I never finished it completely (got behind on episodes and never caught up). I was disappointed in that direction they took, too. Then again, I always preferred the episodes where they were just hunting new monsters as opposed to the overarching story, for the most part.

Also, Supernatural has a kick-ass car, so it's got that going for it.

So my wife and I were out driving country roads and got a little lost. We stopped at a ranch for directions. We had stumbled into Some kind of a cult ritual. Couldn't figure out how to get back to the car without causing an uproar so we stayed.

There's a fighting game based on it. And he is in the game.

Apparently it a 3 person team fighting game. So you select him on your team, and you don't get to play as him. All you get is a window of him running and a countdown timer. All your other 2 characters have to do is survive the 3 on 2 fight until the timer hits zero, and then you win.

I'm in my early 30s, so anime was becoming a bit thing stateside around that time, moreso than in the 1980s. I'm surprised my mom didn't go insane with how much I went on about it and the comic book form, manga.

And did she get another soul, the next one in line? We didn't know what to say, so we just said she has a soul, whatever one God chose to give her. They are grown now with their own children and even now the oldest will torment the youngest with tales of her original soul trying to find her to get back the life it didn't get.

When my dad was in high school, he knew someone who had an innocuous looking car with a crap engine. He'd challenge people to meet him in a short period of time (half hour maybe a bit longer?) across town to race for money. Apparently, the guy had changing out his engine down to a freaking science and could swap in a more powerful one in that much time. Won a decent amount of money that way, I guess.

*****************

One of my favourite weird facts is that the current Queen's mother died in 2002 at the age of 101.
She - the Queen Mother - had a sister who died as a child a few years before the QM's birth in 1900.

So that means that one sister died in the nineteen century while the other died in the twenty first.

My brother lives by an old cemetery which actually has a veteran from the War of 1812 buried there.

Nobody seems to know the story of how a guy who fought in the War of 1812 ended up buried in the wilds of Wisconsin. One of those restless pioneer types no doubt.

I remember Alexis Tocqueville traveled all over the country in the 1830's and wrote about visiting the frontier - which was Michigan in those days.

True story. My cousin was about three years old and her mom (my aunt) took her to the zoo. Crowded day. Little Cousin wandered away a few yards and her mom suddenly noticed, went over and took her hand. A woman standing right next to my cousin looked into my aunt's eyes and said "It's a good thing you came over when you did, because if you hadn't, you would never have seen her again. And I mean *ever*."

Honestly, I wonder if that was an encounter with someone like Georgia Tann.

How a culture views cemeteries is a funny difference. Asian buyers would not go near homes adjacent to, or in view of a cemetery. Other cultures we dealt with particularly wanted the adjacent lots cause the neighbors were quiet.

Posted by: SphereGoth! at October 30, 2020 12:36 AM (KAi1n)

679 In the mid to late 80s, I lived in a small place called Adams-Friendship, WI. When I was a freshman in high school, I lived in a house with something.

May parents had divorced not long before. So it was my mom, me, and younger brother. It was an unhappy time. We were poor and struggling.

My mom managed to rent a house for cheap. We had almost no possessions. We were sleeping in one of the front rooms in sleeping bags.

There was a large, open upstairs area that me and my brother immediately claimed as our roughhousing area. He was four years younger.

We were up there one night not long after moving in. We had cheap plastic poker chips, which we were throwing at one another. They make a heck of a projectile. Good, dumb fun for boys.

Suddenly, we froze and locked eyes across the room, and then we simultaneously fled downstairs. Something was wrong. We were good and scared. But we could not have told you why. I can't tell you why now. I just knew we should be elsewhere.

We wrote this off pretty quickly. Without any discussion. There was nothing to discuss.

We used the upstairs less and less though in the days that followed. I'd still go up there to be alone occasionally. Typical moody teenager. I'd listen to metal on my walkman. I'd always sit in a spot with my back to a wall that allowed me to see the whole room. Couldn't say why exactly, but I did not want any approach unobserved. No blind spots. It was winter, and WI's winter is cold. But it was always colder upstairs. Quite a bit colder.

Not too much later the nighttime noises began. It would happen when we had turned off all the lights to go to sleep, and only then. There would be these staccato booms from upstairs, like someone lifted a large piece of furniture high overhead and dropped it on a hardwood floor. This would be followed by a grating sound, like someone was using an awl to peel up the wood from the floor. This would go on for some time. It was loud.

All three of us heard this. We were sleeping near one another. So we all knew we were hearing the same thing. It was unexplainable and scary.

I'd get up early in the morning to take a bath before school. Being winter it was still dark then. The ceiling of the downstairs bedroom was particularly high. I began to feel watched in the mornings. It was unpleasant, menacing.

We didn't have a lot of options. So we lived there at least a few months. Nothing to be done. The noises came every night once they began. We just ignored things as best we could. We stopped going upstairs altogether after they began.

We eventually moved and what a relief it was. We went upstairs during the day, collected the handful of things we had left up there and got out of dodge.

I can't say what happened in that house or why. I fault no one for not believing a word of it. I wouldn't if it had not happened to me. I'm skeptical of paranormal or supernatural explanations. But I can't come up with a rational alternative. I've heard the noises an empty house makes. Empty houses can be quite noisy. But this was not that.

You could not pay me to return.

680 When my dad was in high school, he knew someone who had an innocuous
looking car with a crap engine. He'd challenge people to meet him in a
short period of time (half hour maybe a bit longer?) across town to race
for money. Apparently, the guy had changing out his engine down to a
freaking science and could swap in a more powerful one in that much
time. Won a decent amount of money that way, I guess.


Had a HS buddy who owned a very buttoned-down Coronet 500. It looked like something a little old lady would drive only to church on Sundays, otherwise it would stay in the garage. Maroon with a black vinyl top, stock wheels and covers. Perfect sleeper.


You'd never know it had a 383 Magnum and a four-speed unless you looked inside. Damn, that thing was fast, even stock. Naturally, it didn't stay that way for long.

How a culture views cemeteries is a funny difference. Asian buyers
would not go near homes adjacent to, or in view of a cemetery. Other
cultures we dealt with particularly wanted the adjacent lots cause the
neighbors were quiet.

Well the house is on a little over 2 acres, and if you stand at the far front corner of the yard you can see the cemetery, but not from the house. I don't think I would be digging that if I looked out the front windows and saw the cemetery.

I've got one of those, too.

A cousin of mine got sick, I don't know how it started, but his symptoms cascaded. Sepsis, heart failure, lungs out, on and on, the nurse told us to prepare because he was "actively dying." You've never seen so many tubes, I mean it.

Miraculously, he came out of his coma, and his sister said he was talking like their late father. Same topics, same accent, same vocab. He recovered slowly in what every medical professional involved in the case said was a miracle.

He said that he had a dream during that time when he was swimming across a river. Got to the other side and there were a bunch of people there he didn't recognize. He thought, "I don't belong here," so he headed back to the river. He said swimming back across that river was the hardest thing he'd ever done, but his father showed up swimming alongside him, talking to him the whole time about his own life, urging him to get across while he (cousin) was struggling the struggle of his life, until dad got him to the other shore. Then he came out of his coma. He's alive now, talks about that "dream."

I understand the sentiment. My parents built their dream home and actively expressed a desire to keep it in the family, as kind of a compound or family retreat. When they both had passed it was a real sense of letting them down that none of the kids wanted the place enough to keep it and buy out the other siblings.

When I woke up, I thought "That was a strange dream. I wonder if it means anything?"

When I was a kid I remember a Ripley's Believe It Or Not about a man from Newfoundland or Nova Scotia who died in Galveston, then in the 1900 storm his coffin was swept out to sea, eventually was caught up in the Gulf Stream, and made its way to Canada. Believe it or not.

In New Orleans, at certain times, a legitimate and accepted excuse for being late to work (or not showing up at all) is "I got caught in the (insert name of Krewe) getting ready for their parade!"

736 If we ever get back to something approaching normality and any of you fancy a spooky experience abroad this place just half a mile up the hill and into the woods from my house -

https://tinyurl.com/y5lkoodt

- is available to rent out at weekends and is haunted as fuck.
I know people who have heard and seen weird things up in those woods around that tower.

Ł292 (about $380) for two nights self catering. And car parking is a half a mile walk through the woods.

Lovely up there in the daytime though.

737 The interstate near me runs through the site of the former county farm and its cemetery... During the roadway's construction, due efforts were made to relocate graves in its path... BUT, the cemetery's extent was far greater than what was mapped and, as construction continued, more and more graves were uncovered... After several delays, it was decided just to toss any more bones uncovered back into the rubble and keep 'er movin'! (*According to local lore...)

Oh, and to be buried in Galveston these days, your casket has to either be covered with a concrete cover or weighted so it won't float up. That part's true.

744 The mental hospital in California where I used to work, had its own cemetery for patients whose families had abandoned them.

Funny thing: in the early 1980s it was closed and the city of Norwalk authorized an apartment complex to be built there.

No, once the sale went through, he was just glad to be done with it.
The previous owner had given it to his mother to live in, out of the way, and she was very Catholic (not a criticism, so is my friend), in my friend found a lot of statues and such. We kept finding children's stuff (socks and small toys and such), mostly in the bedroom and the bathroom where the leak happened, but we never sorted out whose those were.

752 Our house has at least two ghosts, but only one is remotely scary.

The farmer who owned the land before our house was built was shot in the back of the head while out walking his trap lines, not far from where our house now stands. His murder is still unsolved. As soon as it starts getting cold each year, we randomly see him walk across the front yard and then disappear. We figure he's still walking his trap line and has no idea he's dead.

The other ghost is the farmer's niece, who bought the land cheap from the farmer's widow. She and her husband built the house. She kisses you good night if you sleep in the back bedroom. Disconcerting, but not scary, per se.

this: nothing in the house was "plumb." I've read that some old homes
have zero number of true 90-degree angles anymore, because everything
has been shaken one way or the other so many times in the decades since
they were built.

I can confirm that. We built a new frame in another bedroom to put drywall up for exactly that reason. There were fewer issues once that was done, but still some.

About two years ago in a dream it was revealed to me that God is love. Perfect love that we can't even comprehend. Look at the Divine mercy image to catch a glimpse of what i saw. God knows us each better than we know ourselves and he loves us perfectly. I had this profound dream that told me it's going to be OK. Everything is true. The stories in the Bible are truth. God loves us and wants us to come to him. Not ready? He will wait.


It came to me in a dream. Not scary not anything that i had not been told. But now i know deep in my soul. He wants us all he loves us so much he left the choice up to us.

My first bass rig was a Sound City 120 head with two cabinets with an 18 in each one, folded horn. The whole thing was taller than I was by about 8". But what a sound! You could do light demolition with it. Had to watch it since the top cabinet would vibrate right off the bottom one if I had it too loud. Usually only used one cab.


The cops in town knew what it sounded like because I think I met all of them while I was playing it from them getting called on us for being too loud.

Well that was in the bad old 80's when more was better. We eventually had more, but never had the room to use them. I think right now there are 19 cabs in my basement and 8 or 9 old marshalls from back in the day. Excess is best, lol. I haven't used them in years though, too primitive these days. I grabbed a few mesa cabs and went on a newer amp rampage for a bit just to have all the tones in the arsenal, but I use the mesa mkV mostly these days, or the ENGL amps.

I live in the house that my Father built for my Mother.

That I was taken to when I was born.

The ONLY time this house has felt weird? Was after my Father had died, and Mom was in the Hospital for Breast Cancer Surgery... and I had returned home for the night.

It is literally the ONLY time in 61 years, I felt weird in this house.

821 My first bass rig was a Sound City 120 head with two
cabinets with an 18 in each one, folded horn. The whole thing was
taller than I was by about 8". But what a sound! You could do light
demolition with it. Had to watch it since the top cabinet would vibrate
right off the bottom one if I had it too loud. Usually only used one
cab.


The cops in town knew what it sounded like because I
think I met all of them while I was playing it from them getting called
on us for being too loud.

I think you and my one bass players are brothers from different mothers. He used a folded 18 with a cerwin vega speaker and some other cab. We had cops showing up at smaller venues sometimes. Imagine that, too loud for a metal club(???) I told him, dude they aren't hearing you here, they are hearing you 1/4 mile away and you're wondering why cops showed up. he was a pain with that. I made him go back to the 8X10 cab and all was good.

I am under no illusion that Trump will win the state, but there is a surprising (to me) number of Trump signs. There are plenty of Biden signs closer to Philly, and in the Princeton area, as expected. I can only imagine what North Jersey looks like.

I already voted, it gave me great pleasure to not only vote for PDT, I got to vote against Spartacus Booker. Shame that nobody seems to know who the GOP candidate is going against him (somebody named Rick Nehta), haven't seen one ad for him.

I looked up the Korean flu vaccine thing. About 59 people died within 7 days of taking the vaccine, and that has caused something of a panic. Singapore suspended vaccinations. Post hoc, ergo propter hoc. It's a fallacy, and a common one.

The deaths were mostly people in their 70s and 80s and there is no link between the cause of death and the vaccine.

In the US, about 1 person in a million will have a severe anaphylatic shock reaction to the vaccine. And of that tiny number, only a few of them die.

829 I just want to say thanks for all the stories. A fun read.

Personally, I've never had any paranormal, ESP or UFO adventures. But I've come to believe there are, indeed, more things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in any philosophy.

A tv show on the Travel Channel, The Dead Files, is quite interesting in a spooky, ghostly way. Two people, one a medium who sees dead people/spirits and the other a former NYC homicide cop, investigate unexplained happenings in mostly residences but some commercial buildings as well. They do their own separate investigations, she doing an early morning walk-through and he talking to locals (the homeowners/business people, cops, librarians, local historians, etc.), then they get together at the end with the client(s) to compare notes. She gives her reading/impressions then he gives his back-up to what she says from his research into events that transpired on the property (murders, cemeteries, whatnot) and/or the former owners. Too much weirdness to explain away as just active imaginations or attention-seeking.

830 Just moved out of Bergen County, NE corner (across Hudson from Manhattan). Came to a quieter part of Florida several months ago. Florida is a lot more functional despite the "Florida Man" meme. People wave for no reason, supermarkets are functional and organized, infrastructure is 1000x's better despite having no income tax. Although appreciative of my Jersey heritage, it is all very mercenary now in the Garden State with few true patriots and the rest trying to squeeze out what they can from the little that remains. Watching the rudderlessness, rudeness and disorganization during Covid was truly eye-opening. You know about the Psych experiment about too many mice in the cage? 2020 Jersey personified.....

840 Got the flu shot for a few years but done with it now. Never gave me any trouble - and it's "free"!!! - but also likely little value. Some longer term studies of its efficacy are now coming up with fairly lukewarm conclusions, I believe (as with many issues, there are many uncertainties with the subject, especially total infected population, so it's difficult to be definitive).

Absolutely will not get anything they slap together for C19, for mostly the same reasons (no need/value), with the now additional element of complete lack of confidence or respect for "public health" authorities and to some extent pharma and much of medicine.

Fortunate to have perfect health, so "risk" of C19 mortality same as flu - for which I have never and will never make any accommodations of any kind.

842 Re: the recently deceased grandson of John Tyler.

My dad is a former history professor.

There are Harrisons in our genealogy. A few years ago someone asked if that meant the family was related to President William Henry Harrison. My dad was pleased to report that our family is not related to Old Tippecanoe. That may be because of my dad's political views, or maybe he's glad of not being related to someone who didn't have the sense to dress warmly enough for his inauguation, caught pneumonia, and died of it.

Unrelated but amusing fact: we had tabby cats when I was in junior high, called Tippiecanoe (Tippy for short) and Tyler. Dad suggested the names, and we kids thought it was amusing and went with it.

891 842 Re: the recently deceased grandson of John Tyler.

My dad is a former history professor.

There are Harrisons in our genealogy. A few years ago someone asked if that meant the family was related to President William Henry Harrison. My dad was pleased to report that our family is not related to Old Tippecanoe. That may be because of my dad's political views, or maybe he's glad of not being related to someone who didn't have the sense to dress warmly enough for his inauguation, caught pneumonia, and died of it.

Unrelated but amusing fact: we had tabby cats when I was in junior high, called Tippiecanoe (Tippy for short) and Tyler. Dad suggested the names, and we kids thought it was amusing and went with it.
Posted by: Introverted elephocentric hypochondriac at October 30, 2020 03:13 AM (rw/ga)

My take on Old Tippecanoe is this: learn to close the damn sale. If you didn't yap for four bloody hours you might have served a full term in office! Maybe do a fifteen minute inaugural and say at the end "It's cold and raining, screw it, I'm done."

Ever since Bush/Gore, every election becomes more important/dire, more critical to the Republic's future. Every presidential election is now ratcheted up exponentially from the prior election, almost as if by design (/s). Supreme Court nominations are now WWIII and 'the end of the world as we know it' if a Republican makes a nomination. The pressure keeps building within the Country with no relief for us normies in sight. But when that pressure is released, look out. It won't be pretty and it will definitely be one of those 'the left should have been careful what they wished for' moments.

That presidential campaigns are now starting about a year and three-quarters before the election is absurd. A first term House second seating is barely over before it's off to the electoral races. I really don't remember the presidential campaign season being this long when I was a wee lad back in the Dark Ages of Johnson or Nixon. Maybe I just wasn't paying attention, so correct me if I'm wrong. And I sure as hell don't remember all the hoopla about the primaries.

In an honest election, Trump wins everywhere. Because we no longer have anything close to honest and fair elections, it will be won through the USPS and the millions of fraudulent votes cast.

Actually wasn't that bad, sat for a few terms to get that vested retirement and went back to cutting hair. Then we had the distinguished, always entertaining, Sheriff of Mahoning County, Jim Traficant. At least he put his staff to work doing honest, unpaid labor on his farm.

976 Their system would fail if they had the 25-30 million illegals to support we do (or a correct ratio for population).

By the grace of God I don't have to be a customer for health services. Given that, I wanted a little vanity dermatological work done, so thought, no problem just get someone with an X-acto blade and a band-aid to remove a benign blemish and be done with it.

Nope. Absolutely not. Exact opposite.

At least six different people in the front office not including the dude with the x-acto blade. It was an assistant that applied the band-aid. There were four people in the room when this took place.

They wanted to send this severed benign gizmo out to one or more labs for analysis. They wanted photos, documents, pages and pages of questionaires that had absolutely nothing to do with what I wanted.

I wanted to pay in cash since I'm sure that this isn't covered under insurance and didn't want to include hundreds of more intermediaries into the transaction.

Nope. Can't do it. Must report it if I want the contracted rate. Crap tons of more paperwork.

It literally was two minutes of local anesthesia and three strokes with a blade. THIRTY minutes of paper work before, after, and a half dozen people all on salary, benefits, office space and other expenses.

This doesn't include the paper handlers in the background who I didn't see.

This is why we have the most expensive "health care" system on planet Earth.

Next time, if there is a next time, I'll just take a shot of whiskey and use a razor over the bathroom sink.

Like everything else in 2020, "cases" has been corrupted to mean anything other than what it used to mean before.

"cases" once meant an infection that involved hospitalization. Now it means positive test, false positives and when conflated with the new "possible case" designation can include people who are statistically (based on the highly flawed Imperial College model) have a chance of having it due to proximity to a "case".

They have successfully transformed the pseudo-science of Epidemiology into something akin to Astrology and Water Witching.

"Morgus"? A comic TV mad scientist extraordinaire, continually performing "experiments" in his lab above the "the old city ice house," and showing classic horror films in between his segments. There was a point in 1969 and 1970 where he was on Saturday afternoons and presented Star Trek episodes, of all things. Often very funny, presented without a laugh track.

That seems irrational.

The Cultural Marxists won. They somehow managed to take a word/institution, that has been around since the dawn of human history, enjoyed and preserved by billions of people all over the planet in every generation and culture.

Marriage transcends everything, and Christians would argue that it was instituted by God and thus is His to define.

Even those who reject Christianity must admit that marriage is not defined nor owned by a handful of malcontents within a particular culture on a particular day in a corner of the globe.

Yet they stole something that is not theirs to take, they redefined it and demanded that everyone on Earth unquestionably accept their dominion over the institution.

No arrogance and disrespect there, huh?

People are either deliberately ignorant, dishonest or too partisan to see it. We were with some Democrats last night. They are the most ignorant people I have ever seen. For so called "professionals" they were completely unfamiliar with Biden's platform. I told them to go read it for themselves. On issue after issue, they talked emotions, not facts. I started to tell them about the tax effects of Biden's plan and other parts that will destroy their nice comfortable lives.

1124 You're not going to do this, because "On-Line Conservative," but, try to consider the possibility that some people might look into cause of death statements and find that they are all wild-ass stabs in the dark, notoriously inaccurate decade after decade.

A close relative died most definitively of the current virus, but the rehab center had called in Hospice's "Death Squad" for the last 48 hours, and they had their own doctor who just penciled in a minor, cured, non-recurring cancer from 40 years ago. When questioned, doctor admitted they had no reason for that other than making sure Medicare would pay off quickly. It took a court order to get that corrected, and the resulting lack of coverage was about $800. All doctors fill in blanks for convenience. They don't even think of it as lying.


I realize everybody's mind is made up on this, hot gossip and all, but a lot of these stories are just bullshit. I speak from experience, hard expensive experience, and a lot of you are just politically-allied story-repeaters. Free Internet and all, but I will be calling you a liar for decades.
