Yesterday was cranky chickadee day (and Canada Day, Oh Canada). I have never seen chickadees fight before, but they do.

I assume it was fighting (in mid-air), but I suppose it could have been something else. Possibly fighting over the feeders, which have plenty of room.

The house sparrows were having a spat at the feeder (and the yard, and the neighbor's driveway, etc.) so I had a title fun, stuck my head out and said boo. A cat suddenly ran out from underneath a table. I felt bad. I ruined ita bird watching. I have seen the cat around her before. I assume it comes...

Some term-limited folks who no longer are looking at running for and office tend to reduce their f****** around. He still has ambitions so needs to play to a base.

Grifters gotta, so the inevitable rehearing petition . :towel: The rehearing petition was distributed on Thursday, so I presume the denial will be published sometime during the end of July. I seem to be missing the part about intervening circumstances. They point out the standard for rehearing and ...

If time is limited, wouldn't it be faster for him to comment on what was factually correct? They could have gone to the bar right then.

Question for those in the know: Was Captain Ronny a Rear Admiral of the Lower Half or the Upper Half? Lower. Trump nominated him a couple times for another star but the Senate did not confirm him. Wikipedia Jackson held the Navy rank of captain from May 1, 2010, to October 1, 2016, when he was prom...

When I was in college, the school was thinking that the differences between a + and - were to close to fairly calculate on a 4 point scale (for GPA) so, A - 4 BA - 3.5 B - 3 CB - 2.5 C - 2 DC - 1.5 D - 1 E - 0 (i.e. an F but E's are sometimes used instead since it is the next letter). There was no E...

High tech? Seriously? Cutting a mic is a simple mute button on the board and providing a light to tell the speaker if it is on or off is hardly a new thing. What's next? A light on top of the camera tells you which one is running on a live broadcast. For decades. telephone headsets have had a light ...

Huh. Weird. Back pedaling like crazy? I am not going to read more into this than what I see. I don't know how it ended up in the bulletin and I am not going to let any bias make me assume it was something nefarious, not without more proof. Actually, I am wondering if they got punk'd. The only Saint...

They took it down. If it was snuck on to the bulletin I am not sure how some guy pulled that off unless their communication staff were not paying attention. It looks like it could have been a paid ad (it does not completely fit the style of other stuff). I cannot imagine even the St. Louis diocese a...

In the debate, Trump will cast the president as responsible for those who stalk, rape and kill innocent young women. ???? What will he say when we get the next white Ted Bundy? Hmmmm? Somewhere on Fogbow I posted about a (white American) Nazi who raped and killed his friend's little girl. She had a...

Trump got 4 of the 7 letters right. That's 57% which is a grade of F but it is almost a low D.

F+

The private school is a Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) school. WELS makes the Missouri Synod look like flaming liberals.

This is not surprising for them.

Huh, thx! Do you know if that is unusual, or no big deal?

It depends.

pipistrelle knows how to speak "some jerk."

You know, we've called him Sporky around here for so long that I've forgotten his real name. Christopher Somthing? I do remember the etomology of the knickname, Sporky. He posted something and referred to himself as the "Sword of God" or something. Someone on Fogbow pointed out that he wa...

Oh, I understand how Turnip could confuse the name.

Ronny Jackson
Ron Johnson

As they are equally stupid, they are easy to confuse.

Granted, it makes more sense for me to confuse the two since neither was my physician in the White House.

Why do they always think their lunatic actions will spark a "race war"? Any day now... Yeah. I recall there is an element of that. The World is teetering on the edge, and these guys imagine their actions will be The One to send it crashing over. It's a weird amalgam of cherished destiny, ...

Asking nicely and saying please/thank you is WOKE.
