Not sure if anyone else saw it but there was an interesting NBC News article about Hunter Biden's former friend, Tony Bobulinski. He testified to the FBI that Joe was "the big guy" and he was going to get money from China. The GOP held hearings on it and of course blew it out of proportion. Apparently, it's all based on lies he told to the FBI. This completely blows Comer's investigation out of the water.
I've made some one of a kind things that I really wish I had at least a photo of that I gave away to someone and never saw that thing again.
I mean it was a gift for an important person in my life at the time but I have nothing but a memory of it.
Also, not to call out my brother, but he's broken everything I ever made for him by being a total dumb ass so he doesn't ever get anything I make ever again. Because it's a gift but that's totally not ok or cool with me.
And there SHOULD be an alarm in every car warning that you're sitting there in reverse. I have been hit by one of those idiots who "repositioned" themselves in a drive-through lane and forgot to shift back into drive.
I was not amused. Neither was the driver behind me.
BTW, I watched last night’s movie and absolutely loved it! Your essay beforehand - basically to just “go with it” - was super helpful. I did start to fall asleep fairly early on - during the 1st meeting at the IRS - so I switched it off. When I woke up again around 11 PM, I watched the whole thing, and it was amazeballs! I’m sort of glad I didn’t watch with everyone else and try to comment, because there was a huge chance I’d miss something significant if I didn’t give it my full attention. But I do thank you for introducing me to it!
Also, while the acting was fantastic, much credit to the writers and directors for even coming up with the concept itself. (And, while Jamie Lee Curtis was fantastic, I would probably have given the best supporting actress Oscar to the daughter, but it’s definitely a close call.)
Your pre-movie write-up really helped me to let the movie sort of wash over me, to the point I actually thought it made sense. 😁 Michelle Yeoh also did a rather fantastic job of standing in for the audience in terms of “WTF is going on here?”
Nothing in the New York Crimes about a PE major leaving our military in disarray during scary times. But Biden Sucks is at the top of the page. Hmmmm. What is their goal here?
I'm enjoying mentioning wherever I comment that support for Israel is support for abortion.
From what I understand, the U.S. has sent more aid to Israel than any other country over the past 50 years.
Israel's socialist (not really) health-care system provides free abortions to its citizens.
So therefore anyone who supports aid for Israel supports abortion.
It's the same argument the 'Pubes made about Planned Parenthood: any money given to help PP with things like pap smears and breast exams "freed up" other funds that was used kill the wonderful babies.
Same with Israel. The aid money that allows it to buy weapons or other things frees up money that can be spent on baby-killin'.
It's just logic.
I've never seen a "pro-life" person who can explain how those things are different. Probably because their support of Israel is only predicated on bringing on the good old end times
But the "pubes" HATE that logic. Though I think Trump tried to threaten to withhold the $ unless they guaranteed it wouldn't fund abortion. Trump lost (in more ways than one).
Senile Ole Joe hid in his basement while orchestrating the greatest Grand Theft in US history. What an amazing feat. Of course, he had alot of help from Barack to succeed.
It's bullshit. They're pushing bullshit. Trump has not increased his support. That is all. The comments section is full of "he's too old" and "Kamala is a nothing burger" bullshit. Russian bots.
Literally my favorite song, not just Christmas carol but song, is "Silent Night." Accuradio has a channel that plays nothing but versions of it that I listen to.
"The movie can take you to the place of wondering what it would be like if everything, everywhere existed all at once."
but it does! (ain't it cool?)

Is this still an OT from last evening?
Speaking of gifting things....
I've made some one of a kind things that I really wish I had at least a photo of that I gave away to someone and never saw that thing again.
I mean it was a gift for an important person in my life at the time but I have nothing but a memory of it.
Also, not to call out my brother, but he's broken everything I ever made for him by being a total dumb ass so he doesn't ever get anything I make ever again. Because it's a gift but that's totally not ok or cool with me.
Also too, a thing you probably didn't pick up on in those horsey pics was the boards they're mounted to while the finish was curing.
They were a serious pain in the ass to make but I love having them.

"Let me remind you that a full half of all drivers out on the road are worse than the average driver." -- Alex @ Technology Connections.

More frighteningly, depending on how you phrase the question, roughly 75% of men will tell you they have an above average sense of humor.
Perhaps median rather than mean, but likely little difference here.
does that seem like something Kant would call 'a necessary truth?' Analytical a priori
And the average driver is horrifyingly bad.
My weekday round-trip commute is 75 miles. Sometimes I think I've seen it all and then one of them raises the bar again.
This is absolutely fascinating.
And there SHOULD be an alarm in every car warning that you're sitting there in reverse. I have been hit by one of those idiots who "repositioned" themselves in a drive-through lane and forgot to shift back into drive.
I was not amused. Neither was the driver behind me.
I've been backed into at slow speed twice. No big deal, no damage but one time I had my infant daughter in the car so I got a little hot about that.
It all goes back to the great philosopher George Carlin.
Gallagher or Carlin?
You're issued a dart gun with three darts that lodge in the sheet metal of a jerk's car and can only be removed by the police.
If you're pulled over and have three darts in your car you lose your license because you're an asshole.
If you're pulled over and all your darts are used up you lose your license because you're an asshole.
One of my life goals is to even understand what unconditional love is.
That's a thing a lot of people claim to have but I don't believe them because it's the hardest thing imaginable for me.
And while I may love a thing very very much there's always a thing they could do that would add a condition that would make me stop.
And my quest is to figure out how to get past that because as much as I want to love anything that much I just can't. And I know that's my failure.
But it's not like I don't try.
Find a dog to study.

OMG. Harry’s eyes are absolutely mesmerizing!
Thank you! He really does have the most beautiful green eyes.
Also I sent you the December movie posters for your Axl collection.
YaY and thank you! Will check my email.

Anyway, another great call, Movieboss!
I agree, Stephanie Hsu should have won best supporting. It's like they gave Jamie Lee Curtis the award for a lifetime of work.
Most likely. JLC was legitimately fantastic, but I thought Hsu had the more difficult role, and she positively nailed it.
Hopefully, Hsu has a bright future ahead of her, although it’s going to be difficult to top EEAAO. But, she definitely has the acting chops.
Don't know about you, but I did not even recognize Jamie Lee Curtis.
And, Michelle Yeoh is one of those actors whose face mesmerizes me, I could watch her take out the trash and still be fascinated.
Thank you! That's how I was, if you get past that first bit, you can then settle in and enjoy it.
Yaaaaasssss.

Best consultants to site solar energy projects. Energy conservation too also.
It's a relaxing, lazy Sunday for Bear and Harry. They must have already read Garfield and filled their belly's (for now).
Ok now
1. No sudden movements
2. No eye contact
3. Back to the wall at all times

I also have a (one and only one) pegasus version I never finished for a woman I planned to give an entire set to.
She was to get the Pegasus which is just fucking fantastic and a rocker and and a roller.
But then I harassed the shit out of her which was a total fuck up on my part and I almost lost my job over that because I'm dumb and stupid.
My one saving grace was that others saw it wasn't just me. She did a lot to lead me on until she just stopped and I didn't.
But it was a thing.
And now I still have an unfinished Pegasus for some love of my life that will probably never happen and I'll never finish.
War horses?
Really, there's been over 500 comments posted since you started talking about them, and I ain't got time for that.

Blinken: "A ceasefire would only benefit Hamas."
?????
Jeezus fuck, man.
Innocent Palestinians would probably object to that statement if only they weren't dead.
Actually. Israel bombing civilians is what benefits Hamas.
Every time Israel hammers Gaza it is a recruitment tool for the next generation of Hamas combatants.
Ok, that NY Times / Siena poll with Biden’s numbers in the toilet? That’s enough internet for today.
At this time in 2020, Trump was leading just about ALL the polls. It's too early.
Rigged! STOLLEN!
Senile Ole Joe hid in his basement while orchestrating the greatest Grand Theft in US history. What an amazing feat. Of course, he had alot of help from Barack to succeed.
It's bullshit. They're pushing bullshit. Trump has not increased his support. That is all. The comments section is full of "he's too old" and "Kamala is a nothing burger" bullshit. Russian bots.
The same polls that predicted a red wave?
Get back to me in, say, May 2024, when polls MIGHT have some actual meaning.
How do you do polls these days anyhow? Do you know anybody who answers their phone?
Seniors. Otherwise, no, I don't.
Happy, though wildly random, thought:
Christmas carols are coming soon! I love them and I don't care who knows it.
Literally my favorite song, not just Christmas carol but song, is "Silent Night." Accuradio has a channel that plays nothing but versions of it that I listen to.
You can have mine.
♬ Deck the halls with Don's indictments!

He's gettin' nutty for Christmas...
DeSantis earns coveted Iowa governor endorsement. Campaign saved I guess. He must feel six feet tall today.
It's not just his shoes that got a lift?
Or 5'3" without lifts.
5' 11" anyway.
So, 5'5".

I'mma go pick some fights on reddit or something today.
I saw right through the way you started teachin' me now
So someday soon you could get to use me somehow
I thank you very much and know you've been very kind
But I'd better move along before you change my mind

No hard feelings if I never come back
