The water is too damn cold, with surf 8 inches high. No swimming, no boogie boarding, and so today we shall visit Lincoln's 1864 Christmas present from General Sherman. The ocean temp around your location is around 65-67 Fahrenheit. Um... oh boo-hoo. The closest large body to me (Lake Michigan) is ...

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/26/florida-bill-posey-retirement-00154658 TALLAHASSEE, Florida — Rep. Bill Posey (R-Fla.) abruptly announced on Friday that he will not seek reelection, after initially planning to run for another term. Posey’s announcement — if made earlier — could have easily...

And as usual, Ben takes what should be a 3- to 5-minute spot and drags it out 13. His delivery just drives me nuts. This may be one reason why I am resistant to watching videos. It becomes too much about the host and not enough about the actual subject. YouTube videos, unlike actual television prod...

Doesn’t seem to impair the European house sparrows or starlings. :mad: :yeahthat: Last night, I couldn't hear the traffic on the busy highway because the house sparrows were making a racket.

But what about the White Toner?

Now dead birther Hermitian/Henry made some claim regarding white toner because of course he did.

I'm really surprised that they had the ability to update the software on a machine that was probably designed in the early to mid 1970s (it was launched in 1977). They're not Microsoft and other tech companies who scheduled EOL to be 2 days after you installed the update. They also did not annoy Vo...

I'm surprised that the big railroads in the US aren't providing real-time tracking data to show the triumph of their "precision scheduled railroading" strategy that is supposed to make the trains run on time... Oh, wait... Since Hunter Harrison was at Illinois Central before arranging to ...

I've never shopped there, but I see them all over the place. For me, that would apply to nearly every store in the country. I don't shop well, online or in person. I may be personally responsible for the destruction of retail in this country. Well, except for Binny's (beer store) and my impulse buy...

Given the price, terrorists would probably be best just sticking with a normal flamethrower. Yes they are less safe for the user. For some terrorist, blowing yourself up is a good thing, for some American wannabe terrorists, blowing themselves is part of their "nobody can tell me to be safe&quo...

If he would whip out his reading glasses, he would read fine. But he is too vain to be seen wearing them in public. Rare photo.

IMG_7657 1000.jpg We have a pair of Mallards come visit our feeders every spring for a couple of weeks. Ducks mate seasonally so that begs the question of which, if either, is the returning duck. They are fun to watch though. Excellent photo. This is the time of year I have seen ducks on top of the...

Why not both?

Butterdezillion. I wonder if those birthers from olden daze have reunions. I miss the olden daze. It was a real hoot when I'd read their stuff. No more Butter. No More Taitz. Very little Rharon. I wonder too, how much the cost of home-delivered meat has gone up. Remember Chalice? I think she engage...

I don't have much avocado cutting experience so I would likely mess it up. The big difference?

The advantage to not being a narcissist and having some sense of shame.

I saw this the other day. He is such a lazy buffoon. We should deport him just for being stupid. Have some respect and consideration for that other country, The Rest Of The World. Your guy, your problem. There's probably something in the body of International Law that discourages sending Santos to ...

I am stunned that either a) he doesn't know what NAMBLA is, or b) he does thought that was worth the cash. I couldn't remember what NAMBLA meant, one could fit any number of words to that acronym, but I think I would have found ten seconds or so to look it up if it was thrown at me. Yukky people. R...

So when I hear nonprofit outfits getting ripped off by insiders it really pisses me off. Yeah, me too. I work for essentially two non-profits, which are also considered charities. They both have substantial rules on financial matters to protect the organization. The day job is a large non-profit so...

To be honest, I assume the photo on the left is fake, for various reasons. That said, I would not be surprised if some idiot had at least 3 of them flying on their prop, though likely taped to a fence.

There's evidence. Do your own research.

It's not their job to back up their claim with evidence. Duh.

Thanks. It sums up to me about how to live as a Christian.

That's powerful (along with the rest of the text).

Chancery will now entertain us singing the treble parts of

and half a dozen John Rutter pieces,

and some Vaughan Williams

And the Wilcocks descant for O Come All Ye Faithful

They are all probably stuck in his head but good.
