Daughter decided that we had to have boosters in order to see the new grandson. I have already told her that I got 1 shot like she requested, despite my reservations about the shot, and I had already told her that I am not getting any more shots.
I guess I will just have to meet my grandson through Skype.

I'm not a professional risk analyst, but I suspect spending two full days in any hospital is far more likely to give you COVID, especially compared to spending a few hours with a once vax'd but unboosted relative. And never mind all the other fun stuff floating around hospitals like MRSA!

You see a fair number of 1917 rifles sporterized but without a cut barrel for quite a bit less. Numrich finally did get some aftermarket replacement stocks in for them. I had to scrounge up some for mine.

Razorfist had a pretty good rant about China recently. He pointed out that they are FUCKED demographically. Their birth rate is way too low. Their ratio of eligible men to women has way too many men.

Shooty, stabby, clubby weapons...
--------
There are three of those in the Tower of London. Two-handed maces with four-sided heads set with spikes. The top of the hitting end is set with a spearhead, which is flanked by three black powder pistol barrels that fire from a common powder chamber set below the mace head in the haft. The Tower Guards refer to them collectively as "King Henry VIII's walking stick."

You can't directly reach people like that. But I make sure to remind them that the booster they got is basically the same thing they got the first time around...and so they are signing up for another booster every 3-6 months for life.

OHA is making the requirements permanent for reasons of "administrative efficiency", and this does not mean that they won't eliminate the requirements "when the time is right". Har-de-har-har.
Before the leftist moderators shut down the discussion, Portland Reddit seemed to think that if you wanted to flip Oregon to the Republicans, have indoor mask requirements still in effect a year from now.
One commenter I think hit the needle on the head:
Also worth mentioning that it's largely a virtue signal at this point. I can't tell you how many people won't take off the mask just "because they don't want people to think they're a Republican/trumper)". Absolute dogshit excuse. Can't help but think this is playing a part in OHA's decision.
All this has led to me starting to think that the left (and governor Brown too) has lost their mind on Covid.

I think there was an article linked here recently that had the right take on this. The manga/anime publishers know what kind of story each demographic likes (e.g. preteen boys, teen girls, lonely guys in their 20s), and they go balls out to give it to them.
As opposed to our entertainment media, which is obsessed with trying to score stupid political points, reader or viewer be damned.

Asked mom's PCP to submit her name to enroll in hospice care today.
The tougher question, independent living vs assisted living, has yet to be addressed and decided. It's her call, but we, her children, will respectfully and lovingly insist that she be realistic about her true (and declining) capabilities for this.

Can I mix those With opioids? 'Cause I have one hell of a headache.
Just a drive-by 'hello', as I am feeling pretty shitty, but, as well as I might under the circumstances.
The nurses here are amazing in that they put up with my sarcastic humor. they're all so young that they don't get most of it. I've thus far managed to not pinch any of them on the butt, but it's been a near thing. I blame drugs, and brain damage for such unseemly behavior. That's my plea.
Interesting moment, in evaluating my cognizant state and awareness, one PT read a long list of questions to test my reaction to those things. One of the questions was 'If Someone was breaking into your home, what would you do'? I realized in the moment that followed I that she expected the reply 'Call 911'. What I actually said was 'Shoot to kill'. She seemed shocked.
my profuse thanks for the thoughts/prayers/contacts. I'm pretty tired, and have difficulty using the computer, but want to stay in touch.

But the highlight was when four of the Dads were just standing on the patio shooting the breeze and little Paige (the birthday girl) tottered over to us and stood in the middle of all the towering Dads and just started babbling about something she really needed to tell us all, with her arms gesticulating and this super serious look on her face.
All us Dads just nodded and said "Yep" . . . "You don't say!", and "Hmmmm" and she just kept babbling for 20 minutes. Not a single real word in the whole lecture and it was about the cutest thing I think I have ever seen.

It's catching on.
I think there was an article linked here recently that had the right take on this. The manga/anime publishers know what kind of story each demographic likes (e.g. preteen boys, teen girls, lonely guys in their 20s), and they go balls out to give it to them.
As opposed to our entertainment media, which is obsessed with trying to score stupid political points, reader or viewer be damned.
===
When I got started in anime, it was definitely underground, you had to go to anime clubs, give the password, and watch VHS trading tapes of dubious quality. It was cartoon geek and genre nerd social activity on a scale not seen outside of a Star trek convention. Then a few cable channels and Blockbuster Video realized there was some money in obtaining the stuff in the mid-Nineties, and the hobby began to gain ground. My niece started reading manga she found at the public library when she was 10. Not all of my life has led to disappointment.

After that, well you get jaded. I vaguely remember Jim Croce dying, although I was very very young. (10?) but then Chapin died and both left behind young families. (As did Buddy Holly,) and there is something more tragic about that.

Koreans in Japan are second class citizens. Many are a sort of mob. Same with Chinese. Like, half the crime in Japan comes from the 1% of koreans and chinese in the country. (I am exaggerating, but you get the point.)
The koreans are mostly people stuck after the wars and they are not fond of the Japanese. Also, Korea and China both teach their children to hate the Japanese as part of their fascism. Japanese are sick of hearing about it.

The Japanese are about the least interested people in the world in multiculturalism or ethnic diversity, but they're in the same birth-rate trap that the Euros are in, and it's creating a similar political push for immigration.

The fact that Retard Grandpa even mentioned UFOs openly isn't a big deal because he's senile and insane. But other more credible US Gov't folks are also talking about them. That tells me that maybe, just maybe, they've finally figured out the gravity wave propulsion system they've been studying for the last 70 years and are prepping the ground for a big reveal.

Viking float, Rotary, the Lions Club, the local animal rescue, members of the classic car club, Cowboy Church's mule-drawn wagon, the historic Lutheran Church, our power and light provider, various town businesses and three trucks from the volunteer fire department, including the new brush truck that Santa rode on, plus a few others I've forgotten.
Just peaceful people out to enjoy themselves and celebrate their community.

The grue eats fish. burp! Grue is now you friend.

You go on trip with grue, get stoned out of your melons, and get swallowed whole by a giant space STD on stage. You get married to the cute girl you met there with a blue Mohawk and bitchin heavy boots. Grue is the best grue at your wedding.

I think it's going to take a whole lot of humility for folks
to admit that they were played, and to acknowledge how they over-reacted.
In my own family, I'll be gratified if it happens, but not surprised if it doesn't.
Still haven't seen the new granddaughter IRL, but that is more a case of CA vs. TX, than being forbidden.

Its an old riddle meant to torture people. Either its based on the hat riddle and you have to end it in a "?" Like "in the box, right?" Or it starts with "Here" so the answer is "here"

I think Rogan is a good interviewer, mainly because he doesn't try to overtalk or get a fast one over on his guests, and gives them the time to give significant answers. But as far as most intelligent interviewer that's currently alive, I would give that award to John Michael Godier from the Event Horizon podcast. That dude is a sci-fi writer who regularly interviews PhDs, and almost every episode they will say "wow, that's a great question", often multiple times.
However, in my book, no one will ever beat the king of late night radio for the all-time crown: Art Bell.

I've worked 50 yrs since I was 16. And I'll help them out as long as they need. It's just amazing I'm getting SS and my IMRF pension and we might survive, after being disabled for months.
Asked the SS lady how much you had to make before it was reduced...she said since you are at full retirement there is no limit for you. Anyone know if this is true?

The SS benefit is not reduced for other earned income IF you are at or older than your full retirement age. However, it your SS benefit may be taxable if all your other income exceeds a threshold each year.
15% of your SS benefit is never taxable, regardless. That's the combined percentage of employer and employee after-tax contributions.
I may very well be wrong, the above was from back when I knew things.

Old fashioned doctrine has Infantry advancing with the tanks, in order to keep enemy infantry well away from the tank's weak spots. Kinda hard for Infantry to keep up with an Abrams at 45mph, even if giving chase in a Bradley. Hadji does have the short term tactical advantage in asymmetric, tank/infantry warfare though. He'll be willing to be the human delivery system for the disabling charge or device. Us? Not so much, damn sure not as often. Oh, and Hadji does have an absurdly high failure rate going, so there's that in our favor, anyway.

Not sure if it is a thing that happens when first written, but from what I've seen from numerous live shows on Yoo toobz, etc., David Gilmour truly loves playing Comfortably Numb. It's a powerful song.

I just wonder, when you write something like that, when you play it, do you know? Do you really understand that you have created something for the ages, something that transcends culture and is so powerful it brings people to tears?

Yeah thats the one. Killer show. As far as knowing if you created something special goes, I would say most of the times you know if something is a cut above your normal zone, but the question is does anybody else hear it that way. I guess its part planning, part crap shoot, part luck. Sometimes things just line up.

d'Aww.. ain't nuttin', Sis. I've never actually been on or in an Abrams. But the AF saw fit to send me through a few segments of Bare Base Ground Defense School, one of which was a wee clinic in the asymmetric infantry attack against armor. This was in the late 1970s, mostly I think, a pre-Abrams era. Same game though, same rules.
But if I've gotta fight vs. an Abrams? I'll prefer to do so from the comfort of a drone-control Conex a few thousand miles away, thankyouverymuch!

I have the Ultimate Discography, and it is interesting to listen to some of the early demos that became the final songs.
Re: Comfortably Numb, Waters and Gilmour disagreed about how to record the song; Gilmour preferred a more grungy style for the verses. Gilmour said: "We argued over 'Comfortably Numb' like mad. Really had a big fight, went on for ages."[13] In the end, Waters' preferred opening and Gilmour's final solo were used. - Wikipedia.

That's surprising. It's even showing here in the heathen lands of Oregon.
Speaking of that, I took my kid to the Dude Perfect live show (sports bro, trick shot YouTubers) recently and they had a little after show where they wanted to talk about Jesus a bit and told they audience to stay if they wanted. Somewhat surprising to me, at a show in the heart of Portland, a vast majority of the people stayed to hear the message. It was almost exclusively families attending, but still, that was heartening even in a dismal political climate like we have.

Part of OUR problem with armor in urban AOs, is the amount of collateral casualties we are willing to accept.
We won't just blow the shit out of places, due to possible civilian casualties... dealt with this issue doing Shore Fire Support in the Navy. Times we SHOULD have shot, we did not... because.... Nice.

The tank's armor protects the crew and the important internal hardware. The tank's main gun and various machine guns help to protect the surrounding infantry. The surrounding infantry is who and what seizes the ground being over-run, and also protects the tank itself.
It's all synergy, one cannot do with the other, in whole or in part. More granularly, then add in Armored Personnel Carriers, light artillery and heavy weapons platoons. Every one of them a separate tooth in the Pitbull's Jaw, all chewing merrily away at the enemy with every savage bite. Oh, and airpower, too. You got that, and you don't have a "level playing field", but you've got a billiards table, and every ball on the felt is your own personal sitting duck named Will. Who shall be fired upon, when the appropriate order is issued.

Seen that, but that has nothing to do with my younger daughter.
She grew up in the church, so she knows. But when she became a teenager, she rebelled. Unfortunately, I was in the Army at the time, deployed in Iraq, and was unable (and unwilling) to confront her.

The First Amendment must obviously apply within the Fifty-(seven?) U.S. States. But in an overseas war-zone? Does it carry the same weight, even there? WWII, we could trust the War Correspondents to a large degree, and they seldom fucked the program. By Vietnam, they had become untrustworthy.
Now though? Tell me how or why they're not considered an Enemy Asset when in a U.S. War Zone, and tell me why we should not deal with them summarily, in accordance with their self-demonstrated status as such.

Lord willing I will be moving from Shitland (SoCal) to St. A to join them in January.

When I got out of the Army in 2009, things went downhill from there, and God, in His infinite mercy, saw that we needed to be apart to recognize some things. During that time, I dated other men, and even married another man, just to see him die of cancer. God saw fit to teach me some very harsh lessons.

"Spare the rod; spoil the child." Pain is a great teacher and God does use it sometimes to great effect.
Thank you for your prayers. You are in mine.
Have you read Death on a Friday Afternoon by the late Fr. Richard John Neuhaus? My go-to read when I am thinking deeply about Jesus and "Why?!?!" Also, Dr. Scott Hahn's "The Fourth Cup" video is mind-opening:

We, as a species, tend to only learn lessons the hard way.

This man knows me better than anyone on this Earth, and for some reason, he still wants to spend the rest of this earthly life with me, so much so, he prayed that I would come back to him.
This has me so gobsmacked, that I still have difficulty making heads and tails of it.

Right now, my youngest daughter and my granddaughters are in the grip of some evil entities, and it's a battle that may result in less than good outcomes.
