A very expensive ticket(s) since it's in a construction zone.

Someone posted a CBS poll the other day that showed 79% trusted trump for their Ukraine-Russia news and now I can't find that post. Any help?

After the storms came through Tuesday night and knocked trees down all over hell's half acre, including another massive oak in our back yard, we lost power, cable and internet about noon Wed from 3 trees that fell over down the street and took out everything, including 5 cars. No damage to any peopl...

https://www.wlbt.com/2024/04/09/jackson-police-searching-man-connection-with-deadly-parkway-drive-shooting/ Ex-cop shoots and kills ex-boyfriend. I had lunch with a couple of Judges today and they said the victim was granted his THIRD restraining order on Friday. The doer also chopped the victim up ...

They left out "accidentally discharged."

An attorney, Prince, and his wife, were shot by her ex-husband's father, also an attorney, who was representing his son. The second attorney then killed himself.

His bone spurs are acting up so he's on bed rest for an indeterminate time.

They have now "upgraded" our forecast to thunderstorms from 12-3 tomorrow. We're supposed to have 90% visible eclipse.....from 12-3

Here - Let me take care of that ... Investigation Findings: Lectern $19,000 Executive Summary: The lectern cost too much.

No. He's refering to Police there. Yes, that's what I'm referring to also. We call them officers, too. But my question is about local police being state employees. In Oz, the police force are state employees. The local councils have no role in managing, funding, training, regulating the police forc...

So if your house gets broken into and you call the cops, the guy who shows up is a state employee?

Appointment should be based on competency and professionalism - but there are so much weirdness (sheriffs being able to earn personal profit from the jails they run etc) as I say it boggles me… Perhaps I’m blind to the extent that it occurs here… except it doesn’t seem to… with a few exceptions. Ou...

Anyone ever think about that fact that the 2 Turnip boys both sprouted an ugly beard at the same time? Yep, same as the duck call boys who looked like surfer boys before they needed to look like hillbillies. Hey! Maybe they just like ZZ Top? OTOH I'd wager that they have no idea who ZZ Top is. If t...

4 bomb threats at Planet Fitness here the other day. (It should be Jackson, MS not Jackson, MI in the tweet)

Defamation is the new black.

"One for thee but not for me" and then "let's call the whole thing off" when nobody agrees to that.

My friend is a travel nurse, and about a month ago she took a contract at a hospital in Hazard, KY, population <5000, <1.5% Black. She showed up for her 3 month contract and they saw she was Black. She shadowed another nurse for two 6 hour shifts and was sent home on the third day. It took them a co...

Is it still due by Friday or does the deadline to post it get extended?

It's in the Kari Lake thread.

If I had an employee acting like that, the result would not be suspension. What the hell does it take to get a Judge bounced? Shooting someone on 5th Ave? Or is it just reserved for dicking around with someone else's money?

I think that was Ben's point.

Interesting comment I heard on a quilting podcast the other day. Zak Foster is a quilter who works with people's clothing to make funeral/memory/burial quilts and he commented that the requests for religious motifs to be incorporated in his designs had dropped off dramatically in recent years. I hav...

Yes, "mocking and disparaging Christians" by telling them to love thy neighbor sounds downright heretical to me.
