DinMa, yeah, not quite but funny.

Based on her comments in Guatemala,I’d like to see someone create a montage of VP Harris set to “Relax” by Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

David, noticed your problems posting a pic the other day. Are you using an IPad/IPhone? If so i think that IOS is inserting some non-printable codes that screwup HTML. I have only once successfully posted a pic from my IPad and I had to create the text in another app and then C&P to Typepad comment box with no editing.

OL, when do you go to the island?

But, hopefully you have a remote temp sensor so you can stay out of the rain. Mine has two probes so I can monitor ambient temp/meat or upper/lower ambient (vertical smoker).

Well if Apallhoe doesn’t like Jones that’s a good enough reason for me to support him. (Am I getting a vibe of racist undertones?)

Paraphrased from twitter If the government offered a vaccine against pregnancy with the following caveats; It hasn’t been thoroughly tested; you could still get pregnant; and your partner should wear a condom, how many would get still get it?

Pin, not so cut and dried. Sounds like maybe he said it. If people aren’t following Branca’s daily trial synopsis on Legal Insurrection you are missing out. Yesterday two prosecution witnesses were totally dismantled on cross. To the point that Nelson told the judge he would be calling them back as defense witnesses. Once the prosecution is done I would like the judge to dismiss saying that they have not made their case on any of the charges. Would save the jurors from potential harassment and or risk.

Gus, They shouted out “who killed the Kennedy’s?” It was you and me!

As far as Rapinhoe bitchin about not making as much as the men, I would offer her a spot on the men’s team. Would be worth it to see her humiliated.

DaveInMa, a man year is 365 days, a women year is only 299 days. Science.

Jane, it is a play on words. Geography/physical location. 😁

Do you all realize that the top states in the United States can all be found along the Canadian border?

Pin, sounds like AstraZeneca might cause the needed clotting. Just sayin.

CCGirl, you went to UW-Madison? Early 80’s?

JiB, That’s why I always schedule my blood draws for 1st AM appointment. I do my fasting while asleep.

CathyF, I’m sorry to hear that. My post was about those that were gaming the system not for those for whom UI was a necessity. I think that those that took advantage of not paying rent once eviction was removed from the equation are another group that will get their comeuppance. There will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I’ve been good Gus. Looking forward to when we can get the band back together to break bread.

Less than 40% of those receiving unemployment payments withheld. SMH. I personally know (through my children not my children) many that decided to avoid going back to work as the free cash exceeded what they were earning. Talk about Nemesis. Swift winged avenger. Evolution in action.

27? I’m not sure I could accomplish that without a tree chipper.

Amon, I took screenshots of that article re: US Deaths from Hopkins. Thought it was important and might disappear. Let me know. I’m harrjf at that gmail place. I’d post them (6) here but with IOS I’ve only successfully posted one pic on typepad.

I am saddened by the news of Rush’s death though it seemed inevitable. It will always make me smile that President Trump forced all the democRAT Senators and Reps to attend Rush’s Medal of Freedom award ceremony. 😁

Jane, closest thing I can come up with for making strawberries bleed would be to macerate them. Clean, hull and slice. Put in a bowl, add some sugar and stir. Let sit for at least 30 minutes. They will release juices. Make sure they don’t sit too long or they get mushy.

Willowec Reading CCgirl and Marlene re: children brought to mind the Ages of Man from Hesiod’s “Works and Days”. We are definitely in the Iron Age: “ Thereafter, would that I were not among the men of the fifth generation, but either had died before or been born afterwards. For now truly is a race of iron, and men never rest from labour and sorrow by day, and from perishing by night; and the gods shall lay sore trouble upon them. But, notwithstanding, even these shall have some good mingled with their evils. And Zeus will destroy this race of mortal men also when they come to have grey hair on the temples at their birth (6). The father will not agree with his children, nor the children with their father, nor guest with his host, nor comrade with comrade; nor will brother be dear to brother as aforetime. Men will dishonour their parents as they grow quickly old, and will carp at them, chiding them with bitter words, hard-hearted they, not knowing the fear of the gods. They will not repay their aged parents the cost their nurture, for might shall be their right: and one man will sack another's city. There will be no favour for the man who keeps his oath or for the just or for the good; but rather men will praise the evil-doer and his violent dealing. Strength will be right and reverence will cease to be; and the wicked will hurt the worthy man, speaking false words against him, and will swear an oath upon them. Envy, foul-mouthed, delighting in evil, with scowling face, will go along with wretched men one and all. And then Aidos and Nemesis (7), with their sweet forms wrapped in white robes, will go from the wide-pathed earth and forsake mankind to join the company of the deathless gods: and bitter sorrows will be left for mortal men, and there will be no help against evil.” Lots in there that applies today. Sadly. (translation by Hugh G. Evelyn-White)
