Taliban spokesperson on Friday said that women should not become ministers and that they should only give birth. “A woman can’t be a minister, it is like you put something on her neck that she can’t carry. Not necessary for women to be in the cabinet, they should give birth. Women protesters can’t represent all women in Afghanistan,” Taliban spokesperson Sayed Zekrullah Hashimi told TOLO news. Bearing testimony to the statement, earlier this week, two Afghan journalists were beaten in police custody after covering a protest by women in Kabul where they were detained by the Taliban.

No, it wasn't because he abused his governmental powers. Its that he beat his wife like a redheaded step child. FBI Special Agent Richard Trask was fired in early September while awaiting trial on domestic violence charges, according to The Detroit News. He was previously credited with thwarting the plot to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. The charges for assault with intent to do bodily harm stem from allegations that Trask beat his wife’s head against a nightstand following an argument that originated on the way home from a swingers party they attended. His firing comes amid questions surrounding the FBI’s use of perhaps 12 informants, members of a supposed far-right militia group, Wolverine Watchmen, that appear to have driven the conspiracy to kidnap Whitmer.

SEPTEMBER 13--A motorist is facing multiple felony charges for allegedly exposing himself to a series of toll collectors working on a Florida expressway. Mark Fillyaw, 41, was arrested Saturday and charged in connection with a one-week exposure spree that began on August 31 and victimized workers at three separate toll plazas in Osceola County. Fillyaw exposed himself seven times while passing through the cash lanes of the plazas, according to an arrest report. Feeling lucky Punk? Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day. A Houston woman fatally shot a man who was allegedly creeping outside her house. The shooting happened on Friday, September 10, around 11 p.m. in the 8900 block of Irvington in north Houston, KTRK reported. The woman was in her bedroom when she saw the man looking through window. She then grabbed a rifle and fired multiple times through the bedroom wall. "She was in fear," Houston Police Lt. R. Willkens told reporters on the scene. The man attempted to run off, but he was hit in the torso. He staggered away from the window and died a few feet from the house.

Which book is the top quote from? I think Thomas Moore has written a lot of books and I'm trying to help someone who is hurt from trauma and not a fan of Christianity because of it. I recommended "Philip Yancy's "Where is God when it hurts?" and Disappoinment With God." but that Thomas Moore book might be a good one.

If the ticket to that $30,000 per ticket gala was a gift to AOC, shouldn't it be taxed as income?

Qdpsteve -- Something I'll think you'll appreciate...
Spending a night in Ocean City, MD next week. Within stumbling distance of a cool restaurant / bar called Fager's Island - situated on the water's edge (the bay side). The night I'll be there has 2 musical acts scheduled that are right up my alley. One is a cover band that plays 90s alternative rock. The other is a band called The1974 - a cover band from Baltimore known for "Playing those big 70's hits by those little 70's acts. Pilot. Albert Hammond. Sweet. Snif 'N The Tears. Leo Sayer. Jay Ferguson. Jigsaw. Stealers Wheel. Ozark Mountain Daredevils. Climax Blues Band. Nillsson. T Rex. Bay City Rollers. Gilbert O' Sullivan. Walter Egan". One of the members of The1974 was in a different band from Baltimore in the 80s -- best known for this song from the soundtrack to Fast Times at Ridgemont High. https://youtu.be/ZBQgXef2ltk Posted by: Doof at September 14, 2021 09:10 PM (mZUr4) 85

The charges for assault with intent to do bodily harm stem from allegations that Trask beat his wife's head against a nightstand following an argument that originated on the way home from a swingers party they attended.

Whoa, MisHum, I wasn't aware of Roy Orbison's tragedy. That's terrible.
That performance of Roy you selected was broadcast on PBS decades ago, and occasionally shows up for local fundraising drives at local stations. Night at the Troubadour was the title. It's an all-star cast, Bing it because I'm too lazy to type all the names. A small chuckle, it was broadcast on the local PBS station when Little LCD was about 10 or so. Back then of course, smoking was still legal in restaurants and night clubs. As the concert goes on and the smoke in the air gets thicker, it shows up in the lights. Little LCD, watching with me, blurted out something like, "wow, look at that smoke, was there a fire at the concert?". When i told him they allowed smoking, he at first didn't believe me. "What happens to the air? How do people breathe in there?" Good questions, son, good questions. Posted by: LeftCoast Dawg at September 14, 2021 09:24 PM (sy5kK) 175

A bit of a surprise earlier tonight. Mrs Doof and I were watching Inside Edition - hoping they'd have at least some mention of Norm MacDonald. Alas - they did not. But we noticed 2 surprising things as we watched.
1 - they were covering the Met Gala thing and of course showed Donkey Chompers and her "tax the rich" dress. As the reporter was talking, she actually referred to AOC as "The far-left Congresswoman". We both looked at each other in disbelief. 2 - they had an interview with some dude who was married to Britney Spears for 55 hours. They showed footage of him in DC on Jan 6th. The reporter said "here he is at the January 6th Stop the Steal rally in DC". Again we were shocked. They didn't say anything about riots or insurrection. WTF is going on with Inside Edition?!?!

"Ozone depletions in the lower stratosphere outside of polar regions are difficult to explain using only local chlorine and bromine chemistry.

We also speculate on a related role for iodine in the sudden springtime surface ozone loss observed in the Arctic."

Notice AOC is sporting a kinda Evita hairdo in those pics?
Posted by: Chi-town Jerry at September 14, 2021 09:07 PM (CjFDo) Sandy should be careful about that: Juan used Evita as a PR tool, and when she got cancer she got impatient and started negotiating buying weapons for her supporters. Juan may well have given her a lobotomy to deal with her "issues" which would have explained her really passive behavior during her last year. She died, and Juan was going to build a giant mausoleum to house her, but he got ousted in the coup and wound up bringing the coffin with him to Paris, where it stayed on sawhorses in his Paris Flat's dining room, while Juan got remarried (his dinner parties must have been LIT and his second honeymoon must have been a hoot) Poor Evita is not a good role model for anyone.

"Science and religion have often been at odds."
Only because of scientists who misunderstand the proper place of science - that it cannot answer certain questions. That was when the enlightenment went over the top, when it believed that it could throw God out because they were figuring out the secrets of the universe. It was at that point they began to believe science could tell us how people thought and why they acted like they do, and subsequently how they could thereby *improve* said humans. Hubris is the first sin. Always. Posted by: GWB at September 14, 2021 09:42 PM (vRPav) 277
>>> 205 They're going to screw around and mess up the natural cycle that the earth has in it's relationship with the moon and the Sun and will wind up getting our weather out of sync so that we will be even colder during the winters and even hotter during the summers.

The amount of trust I have in what Woodward writes to be true and free of propaganda is on par with anything the Uniparty used to impeach President Trump twice. This causes me not trust a single allegation made against Milley, not that I doubt for a millisecond that he would crap on the essential subservience of the military being subject to our civilian government's control. So I am factually conflicted while at the same time I utterly want to believe the allegations based on circumstantial evidence this is exactly what this fuck would do. Evidence 1: His woke crap is intended to make it possible for make the mission of the military to take out the opponents of the Uniparty. I think he is a traitor and deserves the full consequences of that action.

Mike Griffin, the NASA administrator for Bush 43, had the best take. When asked about global warming, his answer was that to his knowledge, no one had demonstrated what the optimal temperature of the earth's atmosphere was, and then, once we knew it, what would be the most cost-effective way of getting there, but he suspected that the answer would not be to try to eliminate carbon dioxide.

In total fairness to Henry VIII, his infamous wife-chopping habits do need to be considered in context. His parents and grandparents fought the Wars of the Roses, the ultraviolent civil war that Game Of Thrones is largely based on. Not having a male heir wasn't just an affront to the royal wiener; it was inviting an encore performance of that which almost destroyed England and robbed him and his close advisers of many of their relatives.

@LostinSpace, you capture the dilemma well. I want to believe the Woodward story about Milley, but it's Woodward, and I know that the best cons are based on telling the mark what he wants to believe. So I want to see more than some anonymous sourced story from Woodward before I believe it (although I want to believe the guy is as big a shitweasel as I think he is).

Gavin Newsom is the apex example of what the Uniparty disparages as white privilege. But the Uniparty closes ranks behind him while trashing Larry Elder, an African American, as a white supremist. The amount of double think required to hold this amount of cognitive dissonance in their minds and even more mind boggling to actually believe it all is well, mind boggling. This one example is all one needs to forever never believe one word coming out the mouths of the Uniparty. Any group of people this untethered from truth is dangerous. History shows this level of crazy will murder by those they hate by the millions

Posted by: SMH The Church's burial practices "confirms her faith in the resurrection of the body, and intends to show the great dignity of the human body as an integral part of the human person whose body forms part of their identity." The burial of ashes or their reservation in a sacred place ensures that they are not excluded from the prayers and remembrance of their family or the Christian community -- an essential practice of the Faith. Burying the cremains preserves the deceased's memory and makes it easier to remember them in prayer, as well as avoids the possibility of 'unfitting or superstitious practices.'

..... I've never been one to debate the particulars of Heaven. Jesus spoke of being the Living Water and the Bread of Life and that whoever comes will not hunger or thirst. Most take this as spiritual and figurative. But if we did not physically eat again, it wouldn't matter. I can say this of Heaven with certainty, whatever the format, not one will be disappointed. The glories that are to come are the greatest comfort as we reckon with the birthing pains of the age to come. We can not fathom a world without sin, as we were born of it and into it. This will be the truest of true miracles, a pure world free of it. I think Hank Williams, Jr. said if it didn't have boobs and liquor and weed, he'd rather go to hell or NYC.

Meat accounts for nearly 60% of all greenhouse gases from food production, study finds
The global production of food is responsible for a third of all planet-heating gases emitted by human activity, with the use of animals for meat causing twice the pollution of producing plant-based foods, a major new study has found. Liars got to lie. First of all, we need to eat food, so cutting out food production is non negotiable. Fun fact: Termites put out 20 million tons (cattle 1.5 million tons) of methane annually. Its hard to enact more Communism with termites, but interestingly, if people were permitted to harvest fallen wood out of the forests, there would be both less food for termites and less fuel for wild fires.

Eh, sounds like a bad shoot to me. You only shoot to protect your life or the life of innocents. Maybe if he is trying to break in, but not just for looking in. It's sketchy as hell, but I can think of somewhat innocent reasons to look in a window. Maybe he has dementia or is drunk and thinks it's his house. He could be trying to figure out why his key won't work. Or even if he is a peeper, call the cops. Peeping certainly isn't innocent, but it's not a life or death situation.

Best story about toll booths: I worked at corporate HQ for a chemical distributor out west. One of the credit managers traveled back east to visit customers/salesmen. He arrived and rented a car - we'll say a white escort (it was the 90's)
He met up with the salesmen and they instructed him to follow them. They also said "Hey! Good job on a white escort! Our toll collectors have a daily 'car of the day' and escorts are it! You don't have to pay any tolls!" He followed them and at each toll booth they paid their toll and his, telling the booth worker "this is for the car behind us." He followed along smugly, thinking he had the car of the day. At the last toll, they did not pay! Sirens went off, he got pulled over, and kept assuring the cops "I have the car of the day!" They got the corporate guy good. Posted by: 496 at September 14, 2021 10:30 PM (U1eOr) 490

Texas law on this point is markedly different on this point. In some Northeastern states, there is practically a "duty to flee" in these situations, or near enough. Not in Texas however.

Catherine Parr is interesting. Henry's last wife, older than the others, well educated, had a mind of her own. She went off the rails after Henry died, though. Married Thomas Seymour who tried to seduce Elizabeth right under her nose. She died in childbirth. Seymour lost his head not long after. I think he's the one referred to by Elizabeth in this quote. "Today died a man of great wit and very little judgment."

Yeah, I like Katherine Parr. But I hold that all of Henry's marriages were illegitimate except the first, because I believe Katherine of Aragon that her first marriage was never consummated, meaning her marriage to Henry should never have been annulled and her daughter never declared illegitimate.

Anne Boleyn, on the other hand, I don't give much of a shit about. Posted by: Mrs. Peel at September 14, 2021 10:05 PM (8548M) Eh, having himself un-married from Katharine of Aragon was maybe a bit sleazy but there again, he had reasons to be seriously concerned about the baby-making situation. Or were you thinking Catherine Howard, the second chopped one? IMO she totally deserved it, as Boleyn probably didn't actually have an affair but Howard most certainly did. Her last words were supposedly something like "I wish I had died a Culpepper [the other guy's name]." Boleyn was the really tragic one, as the whole case against her was total bullshit from jump street and she did nothing wrong aside from not put out. Henry was supposedly torn up about the situation too, but affairs of state had forced his hand. Also useful to consider that in marrying her, Henry had effectively declared war on the Catholic Church. It was a bad situation all around.

I won't take the vaccine. I hope it doesn't become mandatory to gain access to healthcare. If it does, well, I'll forego healthcare for the interim. But I'll be suing.
You can't unvax. I think one of the problems is that people still imagine that if they submit, they can go on with their lives and be "normal." No. There won't be "normal." I'm afraid people will be selling out their freedom and bodily integrity and still get shafted in multiple ways. You may want to start thinking outside the box of "normalcy." Think about what you have to offer that isn't part of the system. Meanwhile, it's essential that a large pool of us remain unvaxxed. Since I'm retired, I guess all I have to sacrifice is healthcare.

Just that Henry had so many options, IMHO, rather than executing people. He could have been an innovator in terms of not being such the bloodthirsty monarch.

1- Actually I think Yamamoto understood the material military odds, should America decide to pursue things, based on his time in the US. Hence his (actually documented, I think) answer to higher authority when asked about a war with the US: for 6 months, I will run wild, after that, no promises.
Which showed a fairly astute appreciation of the then-superiority of Japanese naval power, as well as the appreciation of US industrial and military potential. For those interested in Japan's astonishing, catastrophic war non-decision (it's really hard to describe, it's so ridiculous), I highly recommend "Japan 1941" by Eri Hotta, a Japanese historian. Exec summary: in private, and reality, literally none of the senior, experienced Japanese military or civilian leadership actually thought Japan could win a straight-up fight with the US, but they wouldn't say so in a decisive group setting.

2 - And the idea wasn't to invade west coast cities. It was to 1) pre-empt the Pacific Fleet's ability to interfere with Japanese seizure of the southern resource areas (the primary point of the war) 2) hope - hope - that faced with a fait accompli in the western Pacific, the US would sue for peace.
Interesting tidbit: not only Baron Nishi, the Olympic equestrian who died on Iwo Jima, had time in the US. The commander, Kuribayashi, did as well. Only weirder thing is that the Japanese foreign minister responsible for putting Japan in the Axis pact, and who had a far more frivolous optimism about beating the US without a full-blown conflict, Matsuoka, was quite Americanized, graduated from Oregon State law school after spending his teen years in the US.

Unsurprising, but still nauseating, if the recall fails.
Don't forget this was not some "groundswell" recall, as in the Gray Davis case. And just to emphasize how collapsed the electorate is here, remember that Davis was recalled due to, inter alia, 3 sins: a ridiculous sweetheart deal with the prison guards' union (!), an increase in the vehicle registration fees, and driver's licenses for illegals. Three things that today could happen next Wednesday, without press comment and zero reaction from 75% of the populace. If they hadn't already all long since happened. THAT is how bad it is.

I always felt FDR maneuvered the Japanese into WW2. He cut off their steel, then their oil. The only way they could get those things back thru us would be to pull out of China and go home and give up their ambitions of empire,. Or they could just attack Western possessions in Asia and try to make the US decide that letting them have Asia was better than fighting them. All along the Japanese were basically playing chess with the rules being every time they lost a piece they lost it while their opponent kept getting more and more pieces.

Even moreso than Anne Boleyn, she did her utmost to do the right thing but was just a victim of circumstance.

"The only way they could get those things back thru us would be to pull out of China and go home and give up their ambitions of empire,."
Inversion. They lost scrap metal, then oil, BECAUSE of their depredations. And the issue, especially in the case of moving into southern Indochina (Vietnam), which led to the oil embargo*, was hotly debated inside Japan, with the US trade response a central issue. So yeah, their activities in China (outright pointless barbaric conquest, without even any economic payoff - we're talking central China, not the prize of Manchuria, which they already had), and their pre-positioning in southern Vietnam (all that it was) for taking Malaya, had consequences. They were in charge the entire time, FDR was merely reacting. * good reason to believe the oil embargo was not actually meant to be one, more of a conditional reduction, but that State and others turned it into one Posted by: rhomboid (OTzUX) at September 14, 2021 11:02 PM (OTzUX) 604

ABC News is reporting that Newsom beat the recall. Well, not surprised. Disappointed, but not surprised. I was really surprised to see that they're reporting he's winning it with a 2-1 margin. Buuuullshiiiit!!!!! That's a fucking joke if I ever saw it. But what I did find most heartening was that Larry Elder was beating the pants off his other opponents. Like he's got nearly half of that vote. Next regular election I think Elder should definitely run. Get the nomination and freakin' *run*. Anyway...It's late. I'm tired. And old. And fat.

I figured they must've gotten on someone important's Shit List. Maybe they pulled over a drunk Kennedy or something. Or maybe they were racking up easy overtime.

Posted by: Miley Old Mama is a Farmer's Daughter with two (2) Very Green Thumbs. But she krazy. I will do my own farming (a half acre is a garden) and re-learn the Old and Best Ways.

Pure circular reasoning. One's act of shooting elevates a situation to a life or death scenario, which then justifies the shoot. Y'all are essentially embracing, "fuck around and find out." and that's a terrible standard for killing someone. Again, there are innocent explanations for looking in a window, as I briefly mentioned above. All we have proof of is trespassing.

Not that shocking, but still - several obviously clueless sorts online talking about how if only a "conventional" GOP candidate had run with full GOP support, like Faulconer, the recall might have been different. Sheer idiocy. But this is from people who, in many cases, are among the less-clueless/less-stoopid online observers.
Because CA voters will be electrified by an empty suit GOP non-entity like Faulconer, who is sort of an Eric Cantor/Jeb Bush figure, but with less gravitas. Posted by: rhomboid (OTzUX) at September 14, 2021 11:15 PM (OTzUX) 650

Remember to some material degree the actual future of the country rests on the decision of the Senate parliamentarian about the germaneness of amnesty on the budget reconciliation bill.
Absurd, but no exaggeration. An unelected Senate staffer's decision - which is obviously an open and shut case, by any measure or precedent - has more importance for the nation's future than almost any election (2020 excluded). The accelerant of amnesty, with the current situation of an open border and dissolving internal enforcement, will be enormous. And permanent, both in terms of 10s of millions of lawless migrants who will never be expelled, and the evaporation of any vestige of credibility in any immigration rule of law.

Probably obvious, but if Milley doesn't resign, after 3 huge issues (racist indoctrination in the military, Afghanistan debacle, now possible insubordination of civilian chain of command) ....... we're going beyond blog comment territory into real, serious damage to the military and the country.
Twenty years ago, any one of these might have sufficed - thirty years and more, easily. But three????

bonhomme. It's not under the trespassing laws.
it's under Mischief by Night. Check Vernon's Civil Statutes (covers criminal laws, too). That's the Texas paperback version of the entire Texas Criminal Code. Most cops carry two versions. The Vernon's Civil Statutes, and the Vernon's Uniform Texas Traffic Codes (vehicle law, driving, lane markings, dwi, everything else) Nexus/Lexus search on Texas Laws might/might not pull up the chapter and verse from Vernon's.

I'll give you three. Drunk man at the wrong house can't figure out why his key isn't working. He doesn't want to wake anyone. He goes to a nearby window to see if it's open. Man with dementia used to live here or knew someone here. He's confused why things look different. He looks in a nearby window to investigate. Man with very low IQ is lost and is looking for help in a way that seems odd to normal people. Finally, lord almighty you guys need to go to a class or two to learn some shoot / no shoot scenarios, because,"he has no reason to do what he's doing" is NOT legal justification for killing someone.

Americans have no idea whatsoever just how vulnerable stick houses are, either in suburbia or rural areas. They are poorly defensible and not particularly proof against invasion, and easily perforated by gunfire. We lived in a "high trust" society, that is gone. It wasn't that long ago doors were routinely left unlocked and keys in the car ignition.
Once the rule of law is gone, once "city services" are gone, and roving bands of lawless mobs start running amok, people will start to understand. I'm not going to dig up Texas law, but I know for a fact deadly force is lawful at night for defense of life and property. Maybe not trespassing per se, but near enough. There is no reason to be rooting around someones car, garage, or peeking in bedroom windows. They are up to no good. I actually agree with you, but I also agree that there is undoubtedly far less of the sort of "petty crime" that seems to go hand in hand and escalate with serious criminality. "Don't start none, there won't be none" is pretty good way to look at it. The way things are going it will be moot. You better figure out if, and how, your domicile is defensible.

Here's USLawshield's description of mischief at night law.
However, Texas law also allows you to use deadly force in response to theft and criminal mischief, but only in the nighttime and provided you meet the other requirements to protect your property. So, what is the nighttime? Nighttime is defined as 30 minutes after sunset up through 30 minutes before sunrise. What's criminal mischief? Criminal mischief is when someone intentionally or knowingly damages, destroys, marks, or tampers with your tangible property or deprives you of its value. What's theft? A person commits theft when they unlawfully appropriate your property, with the intent to deprive you of your property. Remember: if you encounter criminal mischief or theft during the daytime, you may only respond with force, not deadly force. https://bit.ly/3tIFrvx Doesn't look to me as if it's a blanket, "he's up to hinky shit that seems off, I'm justified in killing him" you guys seem to think it is.

People have asserted that without proof, yes. I provided quotes and a legal summary that disputes those assertions.
Doesn't look that way to me, those quotes are consistent and comport very nicely with what she did. I agree discretion and care is necessary before employing firearms. Who is to to say she didn't? Dude, anyway, it's Texas. They don't play. All that pseudo-intellectual jiggery-pokery word salad bullshit down there won't fly. Maybe in Austin and a few other places. Do you have a security camera?

Fat people, especially. Low hanging fruit right there. Anybody who has been in the military knows how this works. Yes, you get "free" everything - food, clothing, housing, and medical care. BUT, they literally own yer ass. They tell you how to wear your clothes they provide, in excruciating detail. And you best be there every day for morning roll call, formation. 0600 hours. And be ready for an hour of calisthenics, and a 2 mile run. If you're overweight - well you get a little more attention. Think of all the lives saved. Most people can easily stand to lose 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 pounds. Some need even more. Fat loss will save Billions of dollars in health care costs. I can hear it now. All that "fat shaming" stuff they are complaining about has to go. Fat people are filling the hospitals. Taking up beds. Sucking up health care dollars.

So, I sprained my foot carrying 5000 rounds of .38 hollowpoint and a wheelbarrow of HCQ up from the bunker, but the hospital wouldn't let me in with HCQ cause it's a controlled substance now. A kid in the parking lot offered to trade me some pot brownies for the ammo but I said "Son, that shit will kill you."

Posted by: LASue at September 15, 2021 12:40 AM Thank you for some much needed sanity here, and hopefully some reassurance for those worried about their loved ones. My brother-in-law was diagnosed in late June with kidney cancer. He had several diagnostic appointments and had his kidney removed three weeks later- at a CANCER hospital. He's had several follow-up visits, none impacted by COVID. My sister has been battling metastatic breast cancer for years. She has not missed a single appointment with her doctors at a CANCER hospital due to COVID. Posted by: Moonbeam at September 15, 2021 12:53 AM (qe5CM) 864

--------------- No, we haven't changed. We're both the same guys who took the uniform off and put it away all those years ago. We're older now and not the physically fit fighting men we were in our prime, but the heart is the same. Many years ago our government sent us thousands of miles from home to fight to make men free. We did that. Then we came home and put it away. If we have to fight again, it will be for hearth and home. I'm not looking for trouble, but I won't shy away from it either.

The Gunsmoke radio program (different cast) had a decidedly more darker tone, and more killing. One theme they definitely pounded on, was the rule of law. "Vigilante justice" was always wrong, and the way it was portrayed in the setup, it was. They invariably chose the wrong person, someone innocent. Thankfully, there was a federal US marshall on hand to set those poor uneducated rubes to what's right.
They also had PSA, admonishing listeners to never judge people on their national origin, or color of their skin. Because that would be Unamerican. Judge people on their behavior, and theie character. My how things have changed. Posted by: Common Tater at September 15, 2021 01:44 AM (tnOuI) 933

Okra is good food, with pretty flowers. Kind of like malvas. Maybe related to malvas. I don't know.

Re reruns. Law and Order (and a few of the spinoffs) can be pretty good. Went downhill after 9/11 when they started getting political. Jerry Orbach's "Lennie Briscoe" (yes, it's spelled with the "ie") detective character is a hoot. All of all Jack McCoy's harem of assistant prosecutor babes, Angie Harmon was my favorite. But now, I've stumbled on a "House" marathon on one of the other umpteen hundred channels. House was a jackass. A real SOB. But it's fun to watch his jackassing. If any real doctor did 10% of the shit he pulled, he'd be sued out of existence at the least, and probably be in jail on a slew of criminal charges. But, wait, there's Dr. Anthony Fauxci. House is a pussy compared to the shit Fauxci has pulled. And now, I resume my hiatus for a while or so. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion (Mzdiz) at September 15, 2021 01:46 AM (Mzdiz) 936
Do you think the results accurately represent the voters?
Why or why not? Posted by: AmericanKestrel at September 15, 2021 01:40 AM (IDhUW) In CA, probably. Demographics are unfavorable, Dems have super majority in the legislature. Mail ballots going to every registered voter means lots of Dems who wouldn't care enough to go to a polling place will end up voting. Arnold poisoned the CA GOP, not particularly competent and too liberal so many conservatives have given into apathy. Newsom's recall was truly animated over the hypocrisy of him living it up while everyone else was stuck at home. The news cycle is long past that and restaurants have been back open for awhile now so many people no longer care at this point, I'm sure. Posted by: Sjg at September 15, 2021 01:47 AM (gDSJf) 937

tcn,
Unfortunately, human nature being what it is, corrupted with sin, pride gets in the way. Not too many of us are willing to admit we need Jesus to save us, and that He is the only way to salvation. For many of us, that's a bridge too far. And that is the tragedy of it all. Turning down God's gift.

If she's not able to get her surgery because the hospital is jammed full of dimwitted anti-vax whackjobs, it's going to become personal.
Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at September 15, 2021 12:09 AM (oL4gB) Darlin', let's not lose our shit. The "news" here is that the hospital is full of covid patients. It isn't. It is always full: they don't build beds to sit empty. It is the lie put up by the "news" that there is no healthcare available. I personally designed and contracted the build-out at the Alaska Airlines Center for overflow from the hospitals. They never used it, and they finally turned it back into a gym. It cost millions, but was unnecessary. It remains unnecessary. As for those who choose not to vax, none of us is dimwitted nor a whackjob, but if you think so, you are welcome to leave and not associate with us. Enough of the insults to people who have treated you nicely here. Posted by: tcn in AK, Hail to the Thief at September 15, 2021 02:01 AM (SDdx5) 956

~~~ I've seen this quote before but this time I interpreted it a bit differently. Th is time I read the first half as applying to the act of faith which once tried will never disappoint.

Kitten and mouse update. As Miley mentioned, our two kittens, Purry Mason, and Della (Street) managed to catch a mouse. They let it get away. But Jake, our big 15 lb tomcat, made an appearance (he timeshares between my parents and the new house). He caught another mouse for the kids, disabled it a bit, and let them have it. The kids played with it until they killed it, but they haven't eaten it yet. Della just bolted back in the house, leaving Purry to play with the corpse. Jake has gone, probably disgusted with those retard kids who can't kill a mouse properly and don't even know to eat it. Whole. Jake eats 'em whole.

Thomas More is the saint I think. Thomas Moore is the Irish poet.
Couldn't sleep Saturday night and was watching the 1966 biography of St. Thomas More, "A Man For All Seasons." Short backstory: Thomas is the chancellor of English under Henry VIII and is basically the only nobleman who won't support Henry's plan to divorce his wife and marry Anne Boleyn. In this scene his friend is trying to convince Thomas to sign off on supporting the marriage because everyone else has. The Duke of Norfolk: Oh confound all this. I'm not a scholar, I don't know whether the marriage was lawful or not but dammit, Thomas, look at these names! Why can't you do as I did and come with us, for fellowship! Sir Thomas More: And when we die, and you are sent to heaven for doing your conscience, and I am sent to hell for not doing mine, will you come with me, for fellowship? Back in a day when men really did or didn't believe things, and those beliefs had consequences. Today I'm waiting to hear by Friday whether my employer will work with me regarding my religious exemption for the COVID vaccine. Not (yet) in danger of having my head nicked off like St. Thomas More, but interesting times.. Posted by: MammaB at September 15, 2021 02:22 AM (63pQ3) 983

I think I'm gonna pack it in. Purry is playing with the dead mouse on the back porch. He's picking it up and throwing it, then pouncing on it fiercely. You're supposed to eat it, boy. Oh well. I don't see Jake. I think he left in disgust at those retards. Jake has caught a full-grown rabbit and tried to drag it in the house. It was too big for him to carry it, so he just dragged it. I don't blame him. He catches and disabled a field mouse for those two retards, give it to 'em, and they can't kill it properly. And don't even know you're supposed to eat it.

Wood sorrel is also rich in Vitamin C. Historically, it was used to treat scurvy, fevers, urinary infections, mouth sores, nausea and sore throats.
A small patch of it grew wild on the west side of my parents house along the foundation. Hardly noticeable, but as a little kid about 3 or 4 I did. I used to eat it. Somehow I "knew" or thought I did, that it was okay to eat. It looked harmless enough. It tasted citrusy. Mom about had a heart attack in the kitchen one day when I explained how good it is.

"It is speculated that it was a distraction. Hmm."

I don't think it was a joke. If I recall correctly 2-3 hours at 145 to 155 with a 7:1 water to coffee ratio. Do not recall if beans are whole or ground. Brewed in quart jars in the sous vide bath. I don't like cold brew well enough to have tried it Posted by: Pete Bog at September 15, 2021 04:12 AM (Jzz++) 1064

Posted by: Pete Bog at September 15, 2021 04:12 AM (Jzz++) It seems like it is far more trouble than it's worth. Regular cold brew is easy. I put ground coffee and cold water in a large press pot. Into the refrigerator overnight and it is done. Why bother with sous vide?
