Joe's offering Diesel Uncuts at a fairly decent price.

I can hear the radiators hissing so it must be a bit cold out yet but it's supposed to warm up.

I remember buying them and not smoking them all. I must have at least a couple left. Not sure how I feel about 'em. They'll need a revisit.

I enjoy them, but to each his own.

I remember really liking the first one and then they seemed to have fallen off for me. Then again, who can really remember?

Certainly reads like the rantings of a mad man to me. It's stream of consciousness, but for idiots.

And like we mentioned before, he didn't specifically say, "inject yourself", but there's no doubt the power the office holds, and for some reason, this guy in particular. When you hold that sort of power, you have to mind what you say.

But enough about Drumpf, let's talk about all the fantastic deals out there today.
Ok, that was fast.

Actually, the monster has a pretty good price on the Perdomo Factory Tour maddies. Don't know if the discount code works on it, but I don't remember ever seeing them that cheap before.

Discount code does work, which brings the box of 24 down to 97.92. Hurry, only 2 boxes left!!

Great morning to you, Dean! Happy to see you on here although it sounds like you're still dealing with health issues.
Did we miss your birthday? In any case whether it is today, coming up, or we just missed it... Happy birthday!

it is refreshing to have a president that has no idea what he is saying half the time and just reads what his handlers put on the teleprompter for him.

I'd say he has an idea what he's saying at least as much as Drumpf did. I'm also certain Drumpf's handlers wished he would've stuck to the teleprompter more often. When he did, he almost sounded cogent, albeit with a denture problem. When he started winging it is when he ran into trouble with people who can think logically. Personally, I hope he runs again in 2024.

It's the ranting of a social incompetent. It compares favorably to a number of perplexing mumbles by Biden on the campaign trail, and does less harm than Biden's policies. But we won't quibble. When an otherwise intelligent guy sets himself up like that, he gets what's coming.

Fair enough. When someone runs for office, they set themselves up to be scrutinized to a ridiculous degree. At least in this country.

Some would consider that a positive vital sign for a healthy republic. Europe has yet to recover from the shock of the war. They've been on cruise control since we rebuilt the joint...which is probably a safe strategy for them. When Europe has a political pulse, bad things happen.

I say we kill them if they don't pass the probie period. It'd give them an incentive.
And there's a simple qualification we could apply. Anyone who wants the job is disqualified and shot.

Nah, it was the case when Drumpf held the office, too. I'm not saying we shouldn't scrutinize, we should. But when it goes beyond nitpicking, that's when it's just exhausting. CNN did it for 4 years, Fox News did it for the previous 8, and now the last 3 months. It's why a lot of people simply don't watch the news anymore. Because it's always the same thing, the only part that changes is which side is doing the defending and which side is doing the nitpicking.

People didn't stop watching the news, they just started getting it from Facebook - which is as accurate as anything any of the broadcast networks put out there, and the networks have become indistinguishably ridiculous, so...we aren't surprised.
The Newz has never been fair, balanced, or objective. That's just a lie that media tried to foist on consumers. People began to think it was true at the advent of television because Ed Murrow was a pretty good salesman and they thought they could believe their own eyes. Then the internet came along and everyone realized that the Big Four networks and the Big Two Newspapers were as full of shit as everybody else, so now it's just a free-for-all.

Nah, it was the case when Drumpf held the office, too. I'm not saying we shouldn't scrutinize, we should. But when it goes beyond nitpicking, that's when it's just exhausting. CNN did it for 4 years, Fox News did it for the previous 8, and now the last 3 months. It's why a lot of people simply don't watch the news anymore. Because it's always the same thing, the only part that changes is which side is doing the defending and which side is doing the nitpicking.
People didn't stop watching the news, they just started getting it from Facebook - which is as accurate as anything any of the broadcast networks put out there, and the networks have become indistinguishably ridiculous, so...we aren't surprised.
The Newz has never been fair, balanced, or objective. That's just a lie that media tried to foist on consumers. People began to think it was true at the advent of television because Ed Murrow was a pretty good salesman and they thought they could believe their own eyes. Then the internet came along and everyone realized that the Big Four networks and the Big Two Newspapers were as full of shit as everybody else, so now it's just a free-for-all.
I would argue that is WHY people now get their news on FB, Twitter or Instagram. Because they don't want to get riled up for an hour, watching a station either bash their guy, or wonder why the other network is bashing their guy.

When you read it like that I'm almost certain now that he was just speaking metaphorically.
Certainly reads like the rantings of a mad man to me. It's stream of consciousness, but for idiots.
It's the ranting of a social incompetent. It compares favorably to a number of perplexing mumbles by Biden on the campaign trail, and does less harm than Biden's policies. But we won't quibble. When an otherwise intelligent guy sets himself up like that, he gets what's coming.
Fair enough. When someone runs for office, they set themselves up to be scrutinized to a ridiculous degree. At least in this country.
Some would consider that a positive vital sign for a healthy republic. Europe has yet to recover from the shock of the war. They've been on cruise control since we rebuilt the joint...which is probably a safe strategy for them. When Europe has a political pulse, bad things happen.
To a degree, I would agree scrutinizing is healthy. IMFO, we go way beyond what is healthy. But maybe that's just me.

People like being riled up. It's why media came into existence in the first place. I'd submit that what Facebook offers people is something that print and broadcast news can't - an immediate ability to respond, and the illusion that they are right because people agree with them.

I'm assuming she's running as a republican? I couldn't bother to read the whole thing.
I avoided clicking on it altogether. I appreciate that the name was in the link, so I knew not to click.
It's not that I'm transphobic. I just despise fame whores.

Looks like quite the feast in your future.

I'm trying unsuccessfully to recall when I crossed over the 12K posts mark. Somehow I don't think I've managed to stay on pace to cross 13K a year later. I have 118 to go.
Wish I could easily tell but I can't. I'd have to literally count and that ain't happening.

Today is Friday, April 23, the 113th day of 2021.
There are 252 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On April 23, 1969, Sirhan Sirhan was sentenced to death for assassinating New York Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. (The sentence was later reduced to life imprisonment.)
On this date:
In 1616 (Old Style calendar), English poet and dramatist William Shakespeare died in Stratford-upon-Avon on what has traditionally been regarded as the 52nd anniversary of his birth in 1564.
In 1789, President-elect George Washington and his wife, Martha, moved into the first executive mansion, the Franklin House, in New York.
In 1898, Spain declared war on the United States, which responded in kind two days later.
In 1940, about 200 people died in the Rhythm Night Club Fire in Natchez, Mississippi.
In 1943, U.S. Navy Lt. (jg) John F. Kennedy assumed command of PT-109, a motor torpedo boat, in the Solomon Islands during World War II. (On Aug. 2, 1943, PT-109 was rammed and sunk by a Japanese destroyer, killing two crew members; Kennedy and 10 others survived.)
In 1954, Hank Aaron of the Milwaukee Braves hit the first of his 755 major-league home runs in a game against the St. Louis Cardinals. (The Braves won, 7-5.)
In 1987, 28 construction workers were killed when an apartment complex being built in Bridgeport, Connecticut, suddenly collapsed.
In 1988, a federal ban on smoking during domestic airline flights of two hours or less went into effect.
In 1993, labor leader Cesar Chavez died in San Luis, Arizona, at age 66.
In 1996, a civil court jury in The Bronx, New York, ordered Bernhard Goetz (bur-NAHRD’ gehts) to pay $43 million to Darrell Cabey, one of four young men he’d shot on a subway car in 1984.
In 1998, James Earl Ray, who confessed to assassinating the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and then insisted he’d been framed, died at a Nashville, Tennessee, hospital at age 70.
In 2005, the recently created video-sharing website YouTube uploaded its first clip, “Me at the Zoo,” which showed YouTube co-founder Jawed Karim standing in front of an elephant enclosure at the San Diego Zoo.

Ten years ago: Yemen’s embattled president, Ali Abdullah Saleh (AH’-lee ahb-DUH’-luh sah-LEH’), agreed to a proposal by Gulf Arab mediators to step down within 30 days and hand power to his deputy in exchange for immunity from prosecution. (Saleh ended up leaving office in Feb. 2012.) Former Sony Corp. president and chairman Norio Ohga, credited with developing the compact disc, died in Tokyo at age 81.
Five years ago: A confident Donald Trump told supporters in Bridgeport, Connecticut, that he was not changing his pitch to voters, a day after his chief adviser assured Republican officials their party’s front-runner would show more restraint while campaigning. Britain marked the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare with parades, church services and stage performances; President Barack Obama took a break from political talks in London to tour the Globe Theatre, a re-creation of the venue where many of the Bard’s plays were first performed.
One year ago: New data showed unemployment in the U.S. swelling to levels last seen during the Great Depression of the 1930s, with 1 in 6 American workers thrown out of a job by the coronavirus; more than 4.4 million laid-off workers had applied for unemployment benefits in the preceding week. At a White House briefing, President Donald Trump noted that researchers were looking at the effects of disinfectants on the coronavirus, and wondered aloud whether they could be injected into people. Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden told an online fundraiser that Trump’s efforts to block emergency funding for the U.S. Postal Service showed that Trump was trying to “undermine” the election and make it harder for Americans to vote by mail. In an NFL draft conducted remotely due to the coronavirus, the Cincinnati Bengals chose LSU quarterback Joe Burrow as the first pick.
