Well, 725 at least. Since at least 25 will be living inside the cottage.

I saw the Leia bikini costume at a special exhibit at the National Air and Space museum - all sorts of Star Wars costumes and props.
That bikini is TINY - like it would only fit a 13 year old. Never realized Carrie Fischer was that small at the time.

Just checked my 'internet' debit card account. Someone enjoyed a shopping trip to Target on Saturday on my money.
This is one of the few times I agree with Islamic justice. Cut the hands off of some of these f*ckers, and the problem might go away.
I say 'internet' account because we have an account we use exclusively for internet shopping, where we keep a small balance, for limiting loss.

You may want to contact Target. Fun fact we learned after my mom was mugged and her mugger went to Target w/her wallet: Every dang inch of that store is covered w/a security camera - they even have cameras in the checkout conveyor belt (so I think the get an image of the shopper from below).
Getting the police interested might be a harder part, since CC companies (or LifeLock in our case) will just write it off and move on.
Mom's mugger was never caught.

Prayers for your sister, votermom. I had two RCC tumors on mine that were successfully removed, with no chemo to boot. God is very good.
Chi, Lol. We need industrial strength Windex. Between the cat who is allergic to himself, and the Newfie, there is a lot of crap on the windows and walls. But we signed on for it, so I shouldn't really complain. The cuddles and kisses are absolutely worth it.
Especially since the Newf wakes me up every morning by gently bumping my face with his (he human kisses, when he thinks about it. When he forgets, he licks) He then turns his head to my glasses on the bedside table, and nudges them, because he has figured out I can't get out of bed without them. Makes my morning, every day.

I really don't want to log into eBay. Someone wants a refund. Someone who tells lies as well as Hillary!
I said in the listing the box had damage. Also had to sic eBay on you to get payment since you never replied to my invoice requests. Only with eBay intervention did I get a payment.
So now when you ask for a refund you claim you bought it as a present... and that somehow the PVC anime figure's head has popped off.
I really don't need the hassle so the idiot will get their money back.

Secret confessions: while rewatching Fiddler on the Roof I had an epiphany that made my wife both angry and fall over laughing.
See I missed the first 20 minutes the last time I saw it. And didn't pay a lot of attention the first time around so...
"Wait...they're Jewish? Oh this makes more sense now."
My wife looked at me like I had a caterpillar for a head then laughed herself off the couch.

Target seems to be the 'shoppers choice' for identity thieves.
Yeah, my only experience with ID theft was someone managed to withdraw $250 of my money from a Target in Florida. (Where I'm not).
Kinda miffed at my bank as they cancelled my debit card (ok, good) but took two weeks to get me a new one and took about a month to give me my money back.

Never take your debit card out of your wallet unless you're taking cash from an ATM.
Even better, get an ATM only card if your bank offers it. If not that, set your POS limit to $0 (again, if your bank lets you).
Those debit cards are awful for the consumer. Even if you don't trust yourself with credit, a really low limit credit card is still much better than debit. You'll get you money back eventually if you're the victim of fraud if the debit card was run as credit (without a PIN), but they'll drag their feet and be a-holes about it.

Funny thing is, there wasn't enough money in account to cover the thiefs transaction. I don't understand how that transaction worked. I guess cashiers aren't allowed -- in 'fundamentally transformed' America -- to tell the customer they have Insufficient funds. Too judgmental, or something.

Also NO on a local fire district to raise 3.75 million per year ongoing with property tax increase. They didn't say why they needed it and for a small rural fire district I could not see why they should need it.

While at my Mom's over the weekend, she got Time and National Geographic in the mail.
Time cover story was how everything delicious is bad for you. Mom & my & Milady had some good laughs about that over our breakfast bacon. (Mom's is the best!)
National Geographic was global warming all the way, including shrinking sea ice. I had to rant about the increased sea ice and the whole global warmening lie. Thanking the Moron Horde for keeping me well-informed.
Baby Sister got her the NatGeog subscription, she said, because Smithsonian wasn't good enough or something. Not Regressive enough, would be my thought.
On the bright side, Mom says that after being a subscriber for at least sixty years, she's going to drop Time - too little content for too much money. Told her about Newsweak going web-only and selling for $1.
Did I mention Mom's five years from being a centenarian? Still sharp and interested in everything. God, I hope I got that gene.

keep in savings in this bank. Didn't work that way. They moved a couple
hundred from savings without my permission to cover the shortfall
created by thief. Then charged me five bucks.
So I gotta rethink this strategy.

Insomniac: Has there ever been an actual, verified recorded instance of this [razor blades/needles in Halloween apples/candy] actually happening?
No.
But, thanks for the hook to mention that, last Saturday night at a local restaurant, our fraternal-twin sons took the prize ($100!) for their costumes as the Blues Brothers. Son "Elwood" even has a black-and-white ex-cop car. Talk about accessorizing! And at a party on Friday, they karioke'd to "Rawhide."

Funny thing is, there wasn't enough money in account to cover the thiefs transaction. I don't understand how that transaction worked. I guess cashiers aren't allowed -- in 'fundamentally transformed' America -- to tell the customer they have Insufficient funds. Too judgmental, or something.

But let's not ask any questions about somebody's past behavior when they're applying for a job. Because that would be non-PC, and slavish devotion to PC is so much more important than the co-workers' safety, or the security of the money/property that the government agency is in charge of, etc.

Also if you want to be extra paranoid, if you think being garnished is possible in the future, never pay credit cards or other big debts from the same account you deposit your paycheck in.

Ryan, Boehner and McConnell have never read anything on negotiation tactics, apparently.
I'm no salesman, but even I know to ask for more than you want so that when you have to compromise you end up getting more/most of what you actually want. These guys go in expecting the bare minimum (and announce it!) and come out with nothing but the appearance of bipartisanship for a totally capitulation to the Dems.

Extraordinary conquerers
Read Romans: 8-37-39
(If I post it here it will take up too much bandwidth):
Consider what people dread most in life. The list could include things like war, betrayal, famine abandonment, poverty, pain and death. In his letter to the Romans, the apostle Paul presented a similar list. However, what Paul addressed as the most serious of all concerns is that facing tumultuous times could build a wall between God and those who believed in him. Turmoil could cut people off from God's love.
Jesus' followers in Rome were facing difficult times firsthand. Paul offered them comfort, encouragement, and hope by following his list of worst-case scenarios with the best news hey could deliver. No hardship in life could prevent God's love from reaching them and leading them to victory. When Paul wrote, "I am persuaded," he meant, "I am absolutely convinced.' You can stake your faith and your life on this.
The assurance of victory God promises through the words of Paul doesn't mean you'll get every job we apply for, always end your financial year in the black, never contact a fatal disease or avoid a marital breakup. God's promise of victory is specific to the role he's given you to fill in this life. As a believer, when faced with hard times, it won't be your intelligence, talents, or your perseverance that will eventually ensure your victory. It will be God's love, working through you to keep you close to Gods side and to help you rise above whatever has you down.
(Facing hard times can leads us to become more than victorious when we depend more on God and God's strength than our own.)

It is not like they actually care about what they are forcing unwilling people to do as long as they can force unwilling people to do something.

Separate banks, separate accounts. I have had this problem before.
Yeah, we have that now. One bank for direct deposits and keeping large balance. No internet connection to this whatsoever.
Second, 'internet' shopping account, low balance. Just enough to be comfortable losing. I actually thought throwing an extra grand into a savings account at this second bank would be safe, that I could push money into the debit card account as needed. I never imagined they would do it to cover an ISF transaction. I figured I'd get some say. I guess I'm dumb.

Actually, it's a good subject for a meditation if one imagines themselves in the picture. smelling the flowers or looking out the window and feeling a breeze or in one's imagination going out the door (not shown) and walking in the grass and feeling the sun on one's face and hearing birds. I often do that with Bible passages-imaging oneself in the scene but i don't see why a person couldn't take a fair amount of time just to "be" in the picture.

Wonder if we'll ever find out just how prevalent
blackmail was during Obama's presidency. There are times when it seems
to be the only reasonable explanation for strange behavior by GOP,
SCOTUS, etc. I know, I'll put my tinfoil hat on now....
Posted by: Lizzy at November 03, 2015 10:27 AM
I used to think Choom Boy was blackmailing people right and left to get his way. Now, not so much.
My take is that keeping SCotUS, Boner, Bitch McConnell, Prince Reebus and the rest in line involves payoffs. Lots of carrots -- all paid for by the taxpayers or simply plucked from thin air -- and no sticks.
If the Mocha Messiah was blackmailing these people, I'd suspect some damaging info about him to be trickling (at least) out by now. When your enemy has effective defensive weapons, the best approach is to try to spiff 'em into compliance.

When it comes to banking, I generally push money from my checking account to credit cards, and keep my mortgage with an entirely different bank, which I also push payments to.
That's about as far as my paranoia feels it needs to go. And I'm usually pretty paranoid.

So I looked up our guy Stanislav Zhukovsky. He was Russian, of Polish heritage.
Everything was groovy until the Bolsheviks took power and his pretty landscapes and paintings of the estates of the gentry ran afoul of the "victorious proletariat", so he skived off to Poland.
That was all well and good until WWII when the Nazis arrested him in conjunction with the Warsaw Uprising and he died in a prisoner transit camp.
All in all Mitteleuropa was not kind in the early 20th century.

Trump, maybe, but I strongly doubt Cruzer can make it. Yes, he has some appeal -- Hispanic, young, Hispanic, well-spoken, Hispanic -- but his record and his tilt toward certain unpopular beliefs (e.g. amnesty) will hurt him, as they have Rubio.
Carson might end up the Number Two, even though he's not "clean" ideologically, either.

On a somewhat related note, why is it that nobody ever seems to know that in 1914, right before WW I when the Tsar was still in charge, Russia had the highest rate of GDP growth in Europe? Does that somehow not fit the narrative?

I'm reading an article about the growing popularity of hunting in Germany, especially among women. Well that's nice but they're all the way up to 370,000 licensed hunters in a land of 80 million.
Germans regulate everything and insist on training. You no shit need a license to golf and to sail a sailboat. So the hunters are well trained, but the executive course I'm reading about costs 6,000 euro.
I hadn't appreciated the freedom of being able to buy a hunting license and walk around the woods with a gun until I'd lived there and came back.
I do miss the co-ed saunas, though.

I'd have no problem killing baby Marx, Mohammed or Bin Laden, since the damage they did was unilaterally caused by them. The created new forms of evil ex nihilo. In their case, the world really would have been better off had they not been born.
But Hitler was truly disastrous. Not only for what he did, but for certain aspects of the *reaction* to what he did. And by that I mean Merkel brain damage.

I'm praying everyone remembers to go vote NO
City spent half s million on this stupid bond issue
Note that the didn't cut back at al during the recession and instead of a temporary sales tax increase of 1% to cover their shortfall they want only homeowners to carry the load

I'd have no problem killing baby Marx, Mohammed or Bin Laden, since the damage they did was unilaterally caused by them. The created new forms of evil ex nihilo. In their case, the world really would have been better off had they not been born.
But Hitler was truly disastrous. Not only for what he did, but for certain aspects of the *reaction* to what he did. And by that I mean Merkel brain damage.

The colors are intriguing, but the execution is a little off. The window frames are a bit too cartoonish an flat in their coloring. The arc of the top of the table is not consistent with the arc of the bottom edge of the table cloth and the angle of viewing. Sometimes artists do things like this intentionally, but frankly, I'm not crazy about it. IMHO pleasant but mediocre, rdb.

Cruz is being kept alive by small donations, which I hope continue. While Trump can hang in until the end on his own rather meager fortune. The two of them together would be hhhhhuge.
But if Cruz has to drop for lack of funds, not sure who the Donald would choose. I like the north/south aspect of Trump/Cruz or vice versa.

I doubt Trump will win, but if he did, the VP selection will be interesting. I suspect many may not want to bet tethered to him - possibly including Cruz. If you are running an outsider ticket, maybe it is best to go all outsider with Carson or Fiorina.
Posted by: SH at November 03, 2015 10:52 AM (gmeXX)
Maybe.
But, in the end, Trump will need someone who knows the Rules inside and out as well as the Constitution as his VP.
The person who best fits that bill has a name that rhymes with -
Ted Cruz.
But, yeah, for that to make sense, Ted will need to walk back a few things.
That's why the debates need to get away from the
Pie Fight Among Clowns format favored by the Dims/MSM and GOPe.
I would like some hard questions with tough follow-ups posed to all of the top 5 or 6 about- H1B
visas, illegal aliens, and border security.
But so far....Nope.

Donald Tump will be the nominee, Ted Cruz will be his VP.
The race will be over by March.
And then they can focus on Hillary.
And I might actually knock on doors for that ticket. And in eight years, a president Cruz? Yep.
I say that having taken that online questionnaire somebody posted a few weeks back to see which of your personal beliefs most matched the candidates. I was a Cruzer. What surprised me was that I hadn't even taken the time to read his stance on the issues. I just answered the questions honestly.

Saw Trump on F&F this morning. He was asked about the new poll out that has Carson six points in the lead and Trump said that Ben is a "nice guy" but that he wouldn't be a good negotiator with China, Russia, etc. When asked why, he simply said it's not in Carson's wheelhouse, that is not what he is familiar with doing.
Careful, respectful answer out of Trump regarding Carson. I think he doesn't want to completely turn off Carson supporters.

Cruz can't "walk back" his pathetic record in the Senate as a GOPe shill. When he bothers to show up.
Just two votes (or non-votes) do it for me: Cruz was away pimping for money when the TPP vote came up, and he voted for the treasonous Corker "compromise" that gave us Choom Boy's Nukes-For-Iran program.
His yammering about ramping up H1Bs and his whining about Bitch McConnell ("he snookered me!!11!!") are just frosting on the turd for me.
Go look at his website. It's mainly an exhortation to buy Cruz gear or donate money outright. Very light on substance.

And what do they want the money to fund? Why themselves of course.

With Carson, he gets some of the female vote that's rejecting him, he gets some of the black vote that NEVER votes GOP and he actually could use him in governing.
Win, win, win baby!

Amazing how ignorant of the Word of God the Churches have become. Things are spelled out in the Bible rather clearly. Jesus went to the cross for evangelizing, and he clearly told his disciples to continue the work far and wide, with Paul specifically assigned to spread the word to the Gentiles.

The other debates were won by Obama because Mitt was essentially debating two people and was blind sided and shut down by a supposed non-partisan moderator.

I really thinks he likes Carson as a person, but I can't him picking someone to buy votes and pander. I think he'd go with a Guilani type first or maybe Cruz. His campaign has been very friendly with both Cruz and Carsons.
Also, the press actually like him. All the panel and Morning Joe really like him. They love interviewing him.

Some of his support may be shallow, but then again you could probably say that about any candidate. What I've noticed is that his polling numbers are still high despite his missteps.
What I'm really hoping for is that he finds good positions for the top of the Pubbie field in his administration. I'd love Cruz as VP, Carson as Sturgeon General, and Carly somewhere to do with money maybe head of Fed Reserve, I'm not picky. Also, Dondi as Official White House Dog Walker.

I think he is a good guy. Did he turn out to be a great RNC at the national level? No. But going into the last election, he had come off turning our state legislature Republican, getting a Republican elected as Governor, and putting the Tea Party at the big boy's table. When he worked here in Wisconsin, he pulled a lot of rabbits out of the Progressive hat. Did it translate into a 2012 win for Romney. Obviously not. Did I have a crystal ball? Obviously not. Would I kick him in the shins if he was in line ahead of me at Pick 'n Save? Still thinking that one through.

True, but he is such a unique candidate. I have not doubt that many of his supporters have a deep liking to him. But it isn't hard to think that many just like him because of his name and fame and are willing to support him now, but may not once they actually have to vote. With both type of supporters missteps are going to hurt him like they may more traditional candidates.

I outlines the pluses but I don't think having Carson as a Veep is pandering.
He won't ask him just for the votes, I think he sees the balance that would be created. They are similar but different.
That's what you want in a working partner, someone to balance you're weaknesses.
Carson would be a great front man and could head up all sorts of panels deciding how to get out of the mess we've been put in.
They've already shown a propensity for cooperation and mutual respect.
His having Carson as Veep would cause the country to actually believe we can heal our differences and they would be voted in with the largest majority ever.
but that's just me wish casting.

That's what you want in a working partner, someone to balance you're weaknesses.
Carson would be a great front man and could head up all sorts of panels deciding how to get out of the mess we've been put in.
They've already shown a propensity for cooperation and mutual respect.
His having Carson as Veep would cause the country to actually believe we can heal our differences and they would be voted in with the largest majority ever.
but that's just me wish casting.

In the Sunday book thread there was a discussion of Isaac Asimov's Foundation series and the idea of Hari Seldon predicting the future with some accuracy until the appearance of The Mule, a unique individual who changed history and threw all the calculations based on how large numbers of people distributed on a bell curve behave.
When it comes to the question of whether history is shaped by large impersonal forces or by Great Men, my answer is "Yes".

301. Toured the Ann Frank house on Sunday as well as the memorial to the Jews that were rounded up in the city and sent to camps and/or murdered. Very sobering.
Happy to say that our trip through Germany was uneventful. Largest city we visited was Cologne. No signs of refugees. Only time we saw armed soldiers or police was in Strausburg France. Police at the synagogue and army at the cathedral.
Did have our plane quarantined for a time when we arrived in Basel. We had to leave the plane using the steps to the tarmac, we were bused into a separate entrance to enter the airport. Never found out what that was all about. Something suspicious on the plane we heard.

Latest Reuters poll that came out today:
"On the question of whether voters trust the candidates to manage the economy, 59 percent said "yes" to Trump."
That isn't shallow support. 59%. All the other metrics have him and Carson leading by wide margins with everyone else at 10% or less.

I've hired and fired and believe you me, sometimes you just can't tell what someone will be like when you give them the job.
Plus that job Rince has is pretty much sucking up to the big donors and spreading the manure.
Too bad the donors are also manure.

Only thing that explains Obama's and Merkel's behavior in an SF Asimov logical way.

It helped keep me calm in traffic. Trust me, cabbies and other professional drivers see stuff you wouldn't believe because we're on the road for so many hours and in different locales than the normal person does during their daily routine.

Marlin was past his prime before color film was invented.
Vic warned him not to wrestle that snake.
I had to look it up to be sure.
Marlin Perkins was born in 1905. By the time Mutual of Omaha came on in '63 or '64, he was up there.

Fox had a survey about what Millennials think is the biggest problem. It was all inequality. Income inequality, gender inequality the whole left playbook of "inequality". The brainwashing and indoctrination or plain stupidity of accepting the lies of this group of people is just staggering.

Posted by: Jean at November 03, 2015 11:44 AM (ztOda)"
There is no denying that Hitler had a profound effect on how people who lived through his era (such as Isaac Asimov) looked at the world.
To return to the subject of alternate history Hitler, Norman Spinrad wrote a very weird book titled "The Iron Dream". The most interesting part was the preface where it claimed that the book was written by Adolf Hitler. According to the preface, after his discharge from the army at the end of WW I, Hitler dabbled in radical politics for a brief period before emigrating to America. In New York he found the success as an artist that had eluded him in Europe by doing covers for pulp science fiction magazines during the Golden Age. After he had been in the US for decades, he felt confident enough in his English language skills to write the book. As I said, the body of the book was quite weird.

My knowledge of Russian history isn't awesome, but I seem to remember that the Tsar's always had an inferiority complex about their country being looked upon as a bunch of hayseed rubes. So a great many of their works and interests were devoted to at least appearing to be cosmopolitan.
There are many Russians for whom "uncultured" is a mortal insult. Many of those Russians are of temperment and skills to inflict a repercussion which is, in fact, literally mortal.

If history is any gauge Germans might just repulse the invasion right into France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Spain, etc. Merkel needs to get her brain checked for dementia.

Watch and learn America.
THIS is what we've been trying to point out for 20 or more years.
They're not worthy of charity if they come to take your livelihood away.
Maybe this will wake up a few dunderheads in Congress and the country. When they see the results of this over the wintertime.
You watch, Europe will be begging the US (I.E. Obama) to take some of these invaders.
We must stand strong and refuse to allow it.
And don't let them disperse them like they did the Hispanic invaders. They did that so that the people had no focus. And now they've infiltrated all of our cities and towns and you don't know who or where they are. The Gov't won't tell anyone where they took them. *spit*

As long as there's no outright ban, what's wrong with expressing an opposing opinion.
Then the young reader can decide on their own. Knowing that someone is potentially spouting bullshit helps to detect it.
If your just expecting to be entertained but wind up being indoctrinated, you should've been warned. Especially the young and pliable.
Hey. let them put warnings on conservative books and ideas. They already do that anyway. Worse, they ban them.

Fox had a survey about what Millennials think is the biggest problem. It was all inequality. Income inequality, gender inequality the whole left playbook of "inequality". The brainwashing and indoctrination or plain stupidity of accepting the lies of this group of people is just staggering.
How is it that they grow up and never challenge any of what they hear? Or are never challenged by others, especially their parents?
I thought that's what being young was all about, rebellion and all that.

Her country isbeing overrun (in the military sense) byhostile
'refugees' and she's carping about man-caused global warming.

@456 Slovenia is wising up too. They have about had it. They're putting the invaders on trains and shipping them out fast. The EU is a house of cards that's about to fall.
And we get to watch it all happen.

The problem there lies with the government overstepping its bounds, not with the decision of large corporations to provide certain types of benefits.

Parents are the ones who are tasked with disciplining and maturing them. That is why the kids only rebel against the parents, not against what they are being fed by the culture and schools.
I'll betray my age (watch out, Vic, I'm gaining on you), but back when I was a wee Moron, rebellion against everything was the norm. "Don't trust anyone over 30," all the music and the magazines was all rebellion all the time. How did that not come full circle?
Why are most of today's kids not rebelling against all this leftarded insanity?

And I can't be the only person who absolutely robs Amazon on their free shipping can I?
I get two, and even one, day shipping on the most mundane items. And they usually get shipped in a much larger box than they need to be.
Definitely convinced they are a Ponzi scheme, as there's no way they can make money this way.

And once it gets entrenched in the minds of LIVs that yeah man I deserve 6 weeks vacation for popping out a kid, soon enough it will end up as govt mandated.
That's why you should care.

As you say, we can't stop them from offering it. If a company can afford to give their workers a year off - more power to them. If the government tries to mandate it - which no doubt many wish for the government to do - then we must fight. But I can't get worked up about private companies offering certain benefits to their employees that other companies cannot.

You know the reason why I don't shop Amazon from here? Because by wish lists don't show up using that portal. Unless there's a way to have it come up that I don't know about.
I have all my stuff in folders so that when I'm ready to buy, I've already got the stuff I want ready to go. Or a selection and I decide which to go with.
Using the portal, I see no way of seeing my wish list. Amazon doesn't recognize me when I use the portal so all my stuff is missing.
They need to fix that.

Amazon Prime and 2 day shipping - sure, fine for most items cuz I don't have to go to the store.
Plus, things are usually somewhat cheaper.

1. As a pathological liar, Obama has a "tell"; any time he says "I'm not going to..." that is exactly what he intends to do.
2. He is releasing federal prisoners.
3. He just did away with requirement to check on criminal records for federal employees.
4. He said: "I'm not going to confiscate guns."
Based on the above the obvious conclusion is that he intends to form a "shock troop" made up of gang members etc. to form the core of his internal security force - 'as large, well funded, and well trained as the military' to confiscate guns. I think he will be very disappointed with the outcome of that Federal program.

What happens is a company offers a benefit. Then as time goes by the company and others who followed suit lobby the gov't to make those benefits mandatory so that their competitors have the same monetary handicap.
That's how it's been done in the past. Business has been more destructive about citizens civil rights than the gov't ever has. Businesses have surrendered our rights to gov't without a fight.
Much of the problems with the laws are due to businesses lobbying for special favors and rent seeking at the expense of the taxpayer.
Corporate welfare is a bigger problem than welfare programs. (bigger because they are for profit companies that have no right to taxpayers money.)

One could get real paranoid and suspect that they will join the #BLM crowd, instigate widespread Ferguson-like riots that triggers intervention by police, requiring things like gun confiscation in effort to bring peace to our intentionally inflamed communities. Or something like that...
But there is a second reason for moving people around, and that is to foster revolution by actively promoting unrest. The goal is to achieve "fundamental transformation" of a country by tearing down existing structures, replacing them with a new order of government.

Don't get too blinded by that. It's two day from when they DECIDE to ship it. Many a time I have clicked on a Wednesday, expecting to get by Friday, only to have it not packed until Friday and delivered on Monday.
For in-stock, sold & ships by Amazon stuff. And I am 30 miles from their huuuuge hub at Alliance Airport in Ft. Worth.

As you say, we can't stop them from offering it. If a company can afford to give their workers a year off - more power to them. If the government tries to mandate it - which no doubt many wish for the government to do - then we must fight. But I can't get worked up about private companies offering certain benefits to their employees that other companies cannot.

My point is that eventually it will become yet another "right" that the masses will demand. It's sooooo unfair that only Amazon gives a year vacation after popping out a kid. Why shouldn't I get it too? President Bernie, help me out!!
In and of itself, I don't give a fuck what Amazon does. But I know that what they do - along with other big name tech companies - will eventually become a "right" for everyone.

Two possibilities:
1) You're clicking the "AoSHQ store" link. Don't do that, click the big search box graphic.
2) Security settings. It may be that linking through AoS is trigging a cookie problem.

AH HA!
I found that if I click the "Search all of Amazon" button, it takes me to a page with the menus at the top, one of which is my wish lists.
Eureka!
I have found it!!!!!

>>>>> Here, they have one day shipping and Sunday delivery. It's costing me money to not use Amazon. They're all vile, I may as well get the best deal I can. I don't go to physical stores anymore, unless it's some little neighborhood place that sells unique items.

Same here. I only give my money to local places with good customer service like drive thru liquor store and Discount Tire and a handful of restaurants, and a couple of grocery stores. Everything else I buy online.

I use an ad blocker that blocks that graphic. So the only thing I see is the link to the Amazon Store.
So. That's the problem.
Now I can assuage my guilt of being unable to donate by using the Amazon Store. Good!

508 >>Based on the above the obvious conclusion is that he intends to form a "shock troop" made up of gang members etc
One could get real paranoid and suspect that they will join the #BLM crowd, instigate widespread Ferguson-like riots that triggers intervention by police, requiring things like gun confiscation in effort to bring peace to our intentionally inflamed communities. Or something like that...
But there is a second reason for moving people around, and that is to foster revolution by actively promoting unrest. The goal is to achieve "fundamental transformation" of a country by tearing down existing structures, replacing them with a new order of government.

I hate to be paranoid but all of the billions that OFA is collecting have to be for something.
Community Organizers are a bit like the Russian Commissars, keeping people linked into the Party by constant agitation.
That's my best guess, unless Obama just pockets the whole stash,-
a nationwide system of Commissars (Community Organizers) coupled with flashmob violence-
could literally change the country overnight.
And given the extreme cowardice of Our Betters, would flummox President Trump or whoever won besides Hillary!
If Hillary! wins, they would be used to push her farther and farther left.
Good times. Good times.

I was born and raised in rural OK and I can't stand country music either.
Born and reared in the great state of Alabama. Can't stand it either, except for a handful of certain people like Lyle Lovett, Jason Aldean, Vince Gill and Ricky Scaggs. Players, mostly. Not singers.

That's happened to me too, rickb, and, yes, it's super annoying. But it has only been a handful of times. Amazon Prime saved Christmas for me last year. That would seem to be the one time of year where they should get slammed by business traffic, but I did all last minute shopping and it all got delivered when they said it would.
I'm going to stop pimping for them. I feel dirty.

This is a tough month to ask. I saved a bunch of money and used a credit card (shudder) to buy a pistol (first since 40 years ago) so I had to make a big credit card payment.
I'll be eating peanut butter and crackers for most of the rest of the month.
I'll send you some prayers and good wishes.

I actually had that thought a few months ago with the Hispanic Invasion (sounds like a mariachi band).
They actually have started to hire illegal aliens as Police officers in some places (forget where).
What an opportunity for a nefarious and anti american that would be. Hire illegals to do the footwork of investigation and use them for shock troops for the seizure of someone's weapons.
They're allegiance won't be to the constitution. It will be to their employer.
Third world corruption and policing will finally come to the US.

Based on the above the obvious conclusion is that he intends to form a "shock troop" made up of gang members etc. to form the core of his internal security force - 'as large, well funded, and well trained as the military' to confiscate guns. I think he will be very disappointed with the outcome of that Federal program.

I remember Obama's comments about forming some sort of domestic peacekeeping force or some such thing, which was quickly sent down the memory hole. He can't possibly be that stupid. Such a force, presumably intended to disarm the citizenry, would be reduced to a large puddle of amino acids and component molecules in a matter of days.
