It's Tuesday again! In between insults we'll occasionally discuss cigars. Join in and perhaps learn something along the way. Warning: don't proceed if you have thin skin but don't be afraid to post either... And welcome aboard!

He should criticize America. He's being honest. This country has been a fucking mess created by prior fuckhead presidents, none worse than the last three.

Yeah, cause if there's one thing he's known for, it's his honesty. #fakenews
For the record, I would be ok if he were just criticizing America, because there are a myriad number of reasons why he can/should. But this was just a comparison to what Republicans used to think was completely unacceptable. What he did with Putin was far, far worse than criticizing America. A lot of Republicans talked big yesterday about how they viewed his little freak show. Let's see if any of them actually have the stones to stand up to him, for once. My money's on no.

Have to disagree with you there Deano. Regardless of who fucked up and how, it's our mess for us to criticize amongst ourselves and either by mistake or intent fix. It is NOT however OK to air our dirty laundry or whatever to the outside, especially by it's leader. It is absurd to throw the US intelligence community and every other sane person in both parties under the bus for some inconvenient truths. How petty that he has to resort back to attaching the witch Hillary, Mueller and others on the International stage. Through all your meetings, what would you call a person that continues to blame everyone but himself for his problems?

Today is Tuesday, July 17, the 198th day of 2018. There are 167 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlights in History:
On July 17, 1944, during World War II, 320 men, two-thirds of them African-Americans, were killed when a pair of ammunition ships exploded at the Port Chicago Naval Magazine in California.
On this date:
In 1821, Spain ceded Florida to the United States.
In 1918, Russia’s Czar Nicholas II and his family were executed by the Bolsheviks.
In 1936, the Spanish Civil War began as right-wing army generals launched a coup attempt against the Second Spanish Republic.
In 1938, aviator Douglas Corrigan took off from New York, saying he was headed for California; he ended up in Ireland, supposedly by accident, earning the nickname “Wrong Way Corrigan.”
In 1954, the two-day inaugural Newport Jazz Festival, billed as “The First American Jazz Festival,” opened in Rhode Island; among the performers the first night was Billie Holiday, who died in New York on this date in 1959 at age 44.
In 1955, Disneyland had its opening day in Anaheim, California.
In 1967, jazz composer-musician John Coltrane died in Long Island, New York, at age 40.
In 1975, an Apollo spaceship docked with a Soyuz spacecraft in orbit in the first superpower link-up of its kind.
In 1981, 114 people were killed when a pair of suspended walkways above the lobby of the Kansas City Hyatt Regency Hotel collapsed during a tea dance.
In 1996, TWA Flight 800, a Europe-bound Boeing 747, exploded and crashed off Long Island, New York, shortly after departing John F. Kennedy International Airport, killing all 230 people on board.
In 1997, Woolworth Corp. announced it was closing its 400 remaining five-and-dime stores across the country, ending 117 years in business.
In 2014, all 298 passengers and crew aboard Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 were killed when the Boeing 777 was shot down over rebel-held eastern Ukraine.

Ten years ago: The FDA lifted its salmonella warning on tomatoes amid signs the record outbreak, while not over, might finally be slowing. President George W. Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki (NOO’-ree ahl-MAHL’-ih-kee) held a secure video conference during which they agreed to set a “general time horizon” for bringing more U.S. troops home from the Iraq war.
Five years ago: In a heated House Judiciary Committee hearing on domestic spying, members of Congress said they’d never intended to allow the National Security Agency to build a database of every phone call in America, while top Obama administration officials countered that the once-secret program was legal and necessary to keep America safe.
One year ago: The latest Republican effort to repeal and replace “Obamacare” was dealt a fatal blow in the Senate when two more Republican senators announced their opposition to the measure. A white former Texas police officer, Roy Oliver, was indicted on a murder charge in the April shooting death of 15-year-old Jordan Edwards, who was in a car with four other black teens. A Georgia jury said CSX Transportation should pay $3.9 million to the family of a movie worker killed on a railroad trestle in 2014 during the filming of a movie about musician Gregg Allman. Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert was released from a federal prison in Minnesota where he had served a little over a year for a banking conviction related to a child-sex-abuse scandal.

most of the time when he's visiting foreign countries he says what they want to hear, his balls have shrunk alot too.

I was ranting to my kids in the car last evening why Amazon is awesome. We went to a brick & mortar toy store at 6:50 and found their doors closed. [ Edit: sign on the door said they closed at 7:00 ] Their website listed 8:00 as the closing time. I called the store and the clerk said that I should have Googled it because the website is out of date.
What?!? How do these small shops expect to stay in business with that kind of customer service?
The clerk called me back after 5 minutes and told me she'd open the door for me if I came back. She just saved herself a bad Yelp review.

Which is weird, because usually the small, independent stores boast about their personal customer service as the main reason to go to them instead of shopping online. Glad she got her head out of her ass long enough to realize that.

I called the store and the clerk said that I should have Googled it because the website is out of date.
What?!? How do these small shops expect to stay in business with that kind of customer service?
The clerk called me back after 5 minutes and told me she'd open the door for me if I came back. She just saved herself a bad Yelp review.
Which is weird, because usually the small, independent stores boast about their personal customer service as the main reason to go to them instead of shopping online. Glad she got her head out of her ass long enough to realize that.
You want customer service fail? Try the US Postal Service. It'd be freaking hilarious if it wasn't pissing me off. Here, check this tracking number:
9405509699939094575036
Yes, I have opened a case. No, they did NOT get back to me in one business day like they promised, and the wait time to speak to a representative is 1.7 hours. Go figger.
The place should be burned down.
But they'll get a letter across the country for you for 50¢. A lot better than every other country's system. Just sayin'.
Not if the letter never reaches its destination.

In 1997, Woolworth Corp. announced it was closing its 400 remaining five-and-dime stores across the country, ending 117 years in business.
First, Woolworth's and then Toys R Us? Damn that Amazon!
Shhhhh, it'll hear you!
I was ranting to my kids in the car last evening why Amazon is awesome. We went to a brick & mortar toy store at 6:50 and found their doors closed. [ Edit: sign on the door said they closed at 7:00 ] Their website listed 8:00 as the closing time. I called the store and the clerk said that I should have Googled it because the website is out of date.

Well, I mean...it IS a bonus that they charge less to fail to deliver than in other countries.
But then they still cry and wring their hands over how email is ruining them, and how unfair it is they have to compete with UPS and FedEx.
Whateverrrrr.

I will give them some leeway on their economic woes as there have been many initiatives to become more competitive, unfortunately, they are at the mercy of politicians who must approve any of these actions.
