I've pondered a golf trip to Bandon Dunes in Oregon. It always looks so breath takingly beautiful there. Alas, it's a bit of a hike from NoVA and the costs are a bit out of my range. Also, air travel is lunacy these days.

The Heartbreak Kid ... I understand that it's much darker and the main character is much crueler than in the Farelly Brothers 2007 version

I have not watched the newer version. My impression of Charles Grodin's character was that he was smitten with the Cybil Shepherd character, but his pursuit of her was not terribly pushy. Her family liked him not at all (big surprise). The film ended on an unsettling note as it appeared that Grodin's "Kid", who had won Shepherd's affection, already appeared to be bored with her and was having second thoughts on what he had done / accomplished.

It is a pity that the Grodin / Shepherd version is not available for purchase because I had long thought that it would be interesting to have and see again.

43 We had three ducks [mom, dad and a 'son'] stay in our backyard pool -- in spring the tarp was filled with leaves from fall, creating a pond -- and even after we'd open the pool in early summer and usually had the solar blanket on it, they'd bathe in the open water in the pool's corners.

My mom got to feeding them bread left a few times a week at our glass patio-doors and a couple of times when they thought they hadn't been fed on time, the dad would use his bill to gang on the patio-door like the filmed one.

112 Byron York is pimping this article today:

"Handicapping the South Carolina Race"

No-one (including me) is going to click on that! Because there IS no "race."

The only thing to "handicap" is whether Trump wins by 30 points or only twenty. The suspense is NOT killing anyone.

If the SC election tomorrow were a football game, the bookies would list it as "off the boards"-- expected to be so lopsided that bets aren't being taken.

I always enjoy this attempt. Jesus was telling the whores and outcasts to get their act together while there was still time. He wasn't hanging out with them to have fun or normalize their behavior. He wasn't going to visit for a good time.

Canadian University Vending Machine Error Reveals Use Of Facial Recognition
A malfunctioning vending machine at a Canadian university has inadvertently revealed that a number of them have been using facial recognition technology in secret.

Earlier this month, a snack dispenser at the University of Waterloo showed an error message – Invenda.Vending. FacialRecognition. App.exe – on the screen.

There was no prior indication that the machine was using the technology, nor that a camera was monitoring student movement and purchases. Users were not asked for permission for their faces to be scanned or analysed.

168 a tree branch swinging down into scaffolding and causing the whole thing to collapse

"Indeed," this very thing happened to a friend of ours in the fall. He was on a ladder, with some safety ropes in place, but -- have you read Sometimes A Great Notion? -- a widowmaker snag took the supports right out from under'im. He broke his back in a minor way; a month in the hospital, a walker, two canes, one cane, finally back to scripture reading at Mass. Had to give up raising cattle (because his wife could only finish the batch he was working when it happened, and did not want to be a fulltime cowgirl). Eventually he'll move pretty much normally, but it will be about a year gone out of his life. He wasn't even doing it for the firewood.

He is doing more than the gov, whose only ambition is to get his face on Fox News and look like he is doing something. There is a reason why the RINOs in the TX HR impeached him.

I’d like to see him become Gov, just to piss Drinker of the House Phelan off.

Governor Paxton, that dude should stay as far away from Washington as possible.

The DOJ/FBI/CIA/Deep State/Uniparty would be licking their chops at the prospects of a Senator Paxton.

And besides, he can get more done as a Governor than a Senator.

*One does not become Senator to accomplish anything other than enriching themselves and their families.

* Except Rand Paul.

216 Being an Independent saves me a lot of money.

As can be read here frequently, Job One for Real Man Conservatives, when it comes to charities, associations for various actions, political parties and rights organizations is to have enough on them to make it OK for us to be stingy old skinflints.

It's not so bad really, just something you need to know about yourself. And, when confronted, admit to.

Only in this case does it put you in bed with Letitia James.

218 I prefer "middle income" to "middle class," because the former is easier to quantify & the latter is in the eye of the beholder.

222 massive loss of wealth for the middle class

The obsessive devotion this country has about “class” only indicates how Marxist this country has become.

It's also a convenient and fairly universally understood way to refer to the group of people who aren't wallowing in poverty and also not routinely buying Bentleys.

There might be many other easier and well-known ways to refer to the not too poor / not too well off group of Americans. I just don't know them.

229 198 Apparently the Middle Class in the US is define as those making between $38,133 and $114,400 per year with $57,200 being the median.

I didn't know it was that low.

McDonald’s pays $17 in my hood. That’s $35k full time. So yeah the numbers you posted do seem off.

231 Land rovers depreciate ridiculously fast. You can get a 7/8 year old one for 1/5 MSRP when new. But they depreciate for a reason, reliability is awful. It’s still not a bad buy. Get a $100k suv for $20k, and just know it will cost a few $1000s a year to fix things.

I've read that starting about 1985, you were either worse off each succeeding year (the lower class) or better off (the upper class), and the middle class had disappeared.

The demarcation line was $75,000/year. In 1985.

Posted by: Duncanthrax at February 23, 2024 10:18 PM (a3Q+t)
