Parental Shift Change Cafe

by @extreme_oregon

Aww-- duckling rehabbed after a medical problem is reunited with its sibling ducklings.

The old joke goes "Mickey's a mouse, Donald's a duck, Pluto's a dog -- what the hell is Goofy?" Goofy walks Pluto, so Goofy can't be a dog. (Unless there's some weird, uncomfortable division of Morlock and Eloi dogs.) Here's a possibility: Goofy is a sloth.

Hero dog save his friend. (While a human being just points a cellphone camera.)

Bulldog apologizes for chewing up his mistress's slippers. Thanks to Anonysaurus Wrecks.

David French is very interested in slamming into this veritable pit of balls.

The great eye of a gray whale.

A young bloodhound barks at his image in a mirror, until an older bloodhound comes along and says "Stop, you're embarrassing us."

Skillful fisherman catches two fish in one cast.

A squadron of sea birds (northern gannets) dive-bomb for fish.

Meeting a whale and its cub.

Defiant horse.

Ocean's 2.

Dog is playing X-Files.

A few years ago we were out tuna fishing in the Gulf Stream. We stopped the boat to deal with a rigging issue and about 25 feet from us a humpback just slowly emerged from below. He looked right at us with his giant eye and you could tell he was thinking, it wasn't just a blank look.

Then he just sank below the surface and was gone. I will never forget that.

Fuck your movie quiz, because of reasons. OK, it is really an excellent bit of work.

The Leftist fascists, communists and the Federal government (one and the same actually) are getting away with creating a new and unregulated branch of government, because of reasons.

The Federal government is curiously not curious about a couple of supposedly near bombings in Washington D.C., instigated just in time for the Federal plan-surrection, because of reasons.

82 EPA delays rules for existing natural gas power plants until after the election
AP https://tinyurl.com/2n2hte8x
The EPA said it is delaying planned rules to curb emissions from existing natural gas plants that contribute to global warming.
The agency said it is still on track to finalize rules for coal-fired power plants and new gas plants that have not come online...but in a turnaround from previous plans, the agency said it will review standards for existing gas plants and expand the rules to include more pollutants. The change came after complaints from environmental justice groups.
EPA issued a proposed rule drastically curbing greenhouse gas emissions from existing coal and gas-fired plants...If finalized, the proposed regulation would mark the first time the federal government has restricted carbon dioxide emissions from existing power plants...Biden administration has committed to create a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035.
“We have always known that the fight for a clean power sector wouldn’t be a quick one,’' said Evergreen Action. “We are glad that EPA is committed to finishing the job with a new rule that covers every gas plant operating in the US"

Shipwreckedcrew is Bill Shipley, a former federal prosecutor turned defense lawyer defending a bunch of J6 defendants for donations. They just won a huge victory today that will affect the sentences of many JG defendants including some who have already been sentenced.

Short version, the DOJ has been routinely overcharging J6 defendants and it was so egregious even Obama and Clinton judges agreed.

94 well, apparently what I though were gannetts were actually cormorants. My bad.

Anyhow, the cormorants are back on the river.

I was driving to see a friend today, and out in the middle of the bright green field were the wild swans. Even though they are gorgeous in flight and against the fields, they generally mean that there is terrible weather afoot.
Of course, it snowed here today, so I guess that still holds true.

I prefer from the lighthouse in Buxton to Hatteras Village. You face southeast, the water can be 7-10 degrees warmer as soon as you make the bend in Buxton. The all-time high temp at the Lighthouse is only 90. By facing southeast, the hot SW wind off the land is tempered by the Ocean. Salvo, Rodanthe, Waves are very nice beaches, too.

Even though he's head of a minor political party here, he's banned from traveling in India because he's a Sikh separatist so he'd say "Khalistan" instead of "Punjab". [Right next to "Palestine" and "Wakanda" on the map.]

And he supported the bombing of Air India 182 -- thus AOP's reference.

There really is no " left" and "right" anymore. Should really be "fascists" and "anti-fascists" but they already redefined "anti-fascist"

263 The US's role in this thing should be to stay out of Israels' way as they bring down the hammer on the enemy

Thing is, I don't think the pols ever get any graft from the Israelis, but depending on circumstances I remain convinced that they do get quite a bit from the various muz countries!

264 Was that bluebell's dog in the "save a life" video?

Very stabby, stabby!

265 I met a high-test lowlife tonight. He's definitely running a marijuana racket as well as a gambling racket. It wouldn't surprise me if he were also running a few ladies, skimming gas and tobacco taxes, and things of that nature.

I wish we were a mile or two further away from his operation, but he seems nice enough. At least unctuous enough.

The upshot is, now I also know when to punish my kids for thinking they could pull my leg, and go blow spiffs and pull slots while I'm working to buy their clothes.

basically they were cottonwood plantations that must have been 150 acres to a grove, and they were planted in among the wheat fields where the trees don't grow. The idea was that if you planted the trees you could sell the wood for paper pulp when the market was good, unlike wheat where you had to sell it every year. Unfortunately the market was never particularly very good I guess.

I do wonder if anyone ever checked to see if a grove of trees that big would change the local temperatures much.

268 Don't get me wrong,

As a child before commiefornia, there were camping trips up in the remaining Redwood Forests dotted within the state that had been secured as National Forests. There, you could walk amoungst some awe inspiring trees well over 300 ft that had been around since the Russians and the Spaniards first came to the west coast hundreds of years ago.

269 I got down from the Dalles through Maupin and around the South side of Mt Hood a couple of times, but we never got further south. I drove from Pendleton down to Burns a long time ago, but I never did much sight seeing.
It is beautiful country, but I grew up on the Willamette and all that dry open land is odd for me.

270 Where I am now reminds me of Condon and Moro. It's high desert. After all the trees, it's wonderful to be able to see for miles. I love the forests but the view is so restricted.

Where do you think they got all that wood and then drifted it down the river to build all those towns an cities down stream? They weren't much into "replanting trees back in those days"

Your "Dry Open Land" was former Forest more than likely.

272 Best way to tell is to explore that dry open land and see how many stumps trip you up.
