Nope, I called last night and have been released, since they didn't get to my draft number. A little bummed, but at least it opens up tomorrow morning for golf. Lol

Today is Thursday, July 8, the 189th day of 2021.
There are 176 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On July 8, 1947, a New Mexico newspaper, the Roswell Daily Record, quoted officials at Roswell Army Air Field as saying they had recovered a “flying saucer” that crashed onto a ranch; officials then said it was actually a weather balloon. (To this day, there are those who believe what fell to Earth was an alien spaceship carrying extra-terrestrial beings.)

On this date:

In 1776, Col. John Nixon gave the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence, outside the State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia.

In 1853, an expedition led by Commodore Matthew Perry arrived in Yedo Bay, Japan, on a mission to seek diplomatic and trade relations with the Japanese.

In 1889, The Wall Street Journal was first published.

In 1911, cowgirl “Two-Gun Nan” Aspinwall became the first woman to make a solo trip by horse across the United States, arriving in New York 10 months after departing San Francisco.

In 1950, President Harry S. Truman named Gen. Douglas MacArthur commander-in-chief of United Nations forces in Korea. (Truman ended up sacking MacArthur for insubordination nine months later.)

In 1972, the Nixon administration announced a deal to sell $750 million in grain to the Soviet Union. (However, the Soviets were also engaged in secretly buying subsidized American grain, resulting in what critics dubbed “The Great Grain Robbery.”)

In 1975, President Gerald R. Ford announced he would seek a second term of office.

In 1989, Carlos Saul Menem was inaugurated as president of Argentina in the country’s first transfer of power from one democratically elected civilian leader to another in six decades.

In 1994, Kim Il Sung, North Korea’s communist leader since 1948, died at age 82.

In 2000, Venus Williams beat Lindsay Davenport 6-3, 7-6 (3) for her first Grand Slam title, becoming the first Black female champion at Wimbledon since Althea Gibson in 1957-58.

In 2010, violent protests erupted in Oakland, California, after a Los Angeles jury convicted a white former transit officer, Johannes Mehserle (yoh-HAH’-nes MEZ’-ur-lee), of involuntary manslaughter (instead of murder) in the videotaped fatal shooting of a Black man, Oscar Grant.

In 2019, billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein was charged with sexually abusing dozens of underage girls; the newly unsealed federal indictment came more than a decade after he secretly cut a deal with federal prosecutors to dispose of nearly identical allegations. (Epstein was found unresponsive in his jail cell a month later; the medical examiner ruled his death a suicide.)

Ten years ago: Former first lady Betty Ford died in Rancho Mirage, California, at age 93. Atlantis thundered into orbit on a cargo run that would close out the three-decade U.S. space shuttle program. Ohio State vacated its wins from the 2010 football season, including its share of the Big Ten championship and a victory over Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl, as it responded to the NCAA’s investigation of a memorabilia-for-cash scandal.

Five years ago: On the first day of a two-day summit in Warsaw, NATO leaders geared up for a long-term standoff with Russia, ordering multinational troops to Poland and the three Baltic states as Moscow moved forward with its own plans to station two new divisions along its western borders. Ten states (Nebraska, Arkansas, Kansas, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, South Carolina, South Dakota and Wyoming) sued the federal government over rules requiring public schools to allow transgender students to use restrooms conforming to their gender identity, joining a dozen other states in the latest fight over LGBT rights. (Nebraska, which led the effort, later asked to drop the lawsuit after the Trump administration ended the protection.)

One year ago: Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms signed an executive order requiring masks to be worn in Georgia’s largest city, setting up a confrontation with Republican Gov. Brian Kemp. President Donald Trump threatened to hold back federal money if school districts did not bring their students back in the fall. The head of the Tulsa City-County Health Department in Oklahoma said a Trump campaign rally in June had “likely contributed” to a dramatic surge in new coronavirus cases there. Brooks Brothers filed for bankruptcy protection; the 200-year-old company became the latest major clothing retailer to be toppled by the coronavirus pandemic.

This thing started as a jam session, but we keep writing songs instead of jamming.  That's a bit of a problem because originals aren't really conducive to playing out for a bunch of old guys.  So...given the rate at which we are writing and low likelihood of booking any gigs, it looks like this is becoming an album project.

I'll link some demos as we go.

Domination from CI or the Sis, I forget.
A bit surprised by the Cohibas. But I trust your judgement and will likely explore that.

Morning, muchachos.
Hi JammingRaz. How did it go yesterday?
We wrote another song, "Dark Windows."
That sounds bouncy!
It's a happy little ditty.
I'd love to hear it when you're done.
But supporting audio files isn't available until the next Banter upgrade.
But a link to YouTube or some other place would work just fine.

This thing started as a jam session, but we keep writing songs instead of jamming.  That's a bit of a problem because originals aren't really conducive to playing out for a bunch of old guys.  So...given the rate at which we are writing and low likelihood of booking any gigs, it looks like this is becoming an album project.

I'll link some demos as we go.
Awesome. No pressure.

Hello, ClemsonDave. No thanks RE: legal pot for me. I'll stick to cigars. Never was a fan of that skunk smell.
There's always edibles.  I have to bring a supply back for my son whenever I visit my other son.  Chocolates and gummies.
Have a number of other offerings as well, I can't keep track.
Now you've got me at drug trafficking. :D
Feeling a bit like Clint Eastwood muleing Tabac's and Java's up to Boston son and other items back to son #2.
Definitely sounds like you've quite got the racket going.
Except for the getting paid part.   :-\

My daughter got a part-time summer job at a warehouse nearby that packages uniforms for local sports teams. They even press on the numbers on the back, etc.

Got a call one hour into her shift that she fainted. I went to pick her up and she seemed ok. Was even laughing at how she fell. She wasn't hurt.

So now I decide to get a last minute appointment to have her checked out by her doctor and thunder storms come rolling in. Took me almost 45 minutes to go 5 miles. It was like a war zone. Trees down everywhere. Manhole covers knocked out, flash floods covering cars on the road up to their doors.

Sheesh.

Glad she's OK for now.

And after they charged you a hundred bucks, they told her to keep hydrated, right?

It's a hundred just for the appt, an extra 50 for the hydration advice.

This corner is becoming a magnet for people to drive like assholes. This time, it was a woman in a Uhaul pickup truck. At least it wasn't anything of ours this time. Don't think she's getting her deposit back.

Pretty much. We got to get some blood work done because she might be a touch anemic.

This Delirium and the Esteli Puro are the nicest cigars offered by Diesel in quite a while.  Original Hair of the Dog was great as well.
A bit pricier than the others, but worth it.
