having an ipad with cell service but no voice is cool. It's just the right amount of interaction with electronic media. Plus it fits perfectly when I wedge it between the gear shift and dashboard of a car when that map function is operating. It's like being in a spaceship.

Even those people that study mushrooms, 'mycologists' (party animals),  say they can't always  tell the difference between poisonous and non-poisonous mushrooms. Anyhow, once again, the pay-off for rolling dice with your liver is: You get to eat fungus.
I'm not saying they deserve to die....but I don't think they're the ones that were going to bring peace to the Middle East or cure cancer.

People do that here - walking through the woods with buckets. They're usually wearing Birkenstocks with grey socks and driving like Volvos or Saabs.

"A transgender high school athlete dominated multiple girls track and field events at a California regional final Saturday, igniting backlash from parents, competitors and activists, prompting officials to award duplicate gold medals to female runners-up."



This shit is so fckng stupid it's surreal. What's even more stupid is that the assholes pushing this vile bullshit expect everyone else to treat it as if it's true. There are two genders and they are not elective. That is in no way open to interpretation. It is a physical, biological reality that does not transmorgrify into something else as an accommodation to delusion. If the parents of these boys want to use their children as political/fashion accessories, they should keep it private.  Expecting society at large to play along is ridiculous. Not even the dipshits pushing this garbage believe it's true. This is just more of them blaming Trump for their own failures.

The whole matter seems misogynistic. One would think that would be something liberals would oppose. Apparently anyone well-adjusted is on their hate list - male or female.
Trans is not new. What is new is political actors forcing it into confrontation in these athletic events….solely to advance their malignant, antisocial agenda.

Would it be cheaper to hire a hillbilly with a backhoe to dig me a pond for my giant goldfish; or would it be cheaper to buy a Chinese miniature steam shovel with my Amazon credit card and hide it from my wife? One wonders.

"....as Daniel Morgan left the farm in the bulldozer, he drove directly into his brother's car, shunting it and flipping it over.

The court heard that Phillip Morgan made his way to the pub to warn Common and his wife about his son's behaviour, telling them to get people to leave saying "he couldn't stop him".

As members of the public left, Daniel Morgan drove across the pavement and into the pub's porch, causing £22,000 of damage.

He then drove away and towards the property where his estranged wife and children were.

Phillip Morgan tried to warn the family before attempting to stop his son by blocking his way with a truck and trailer.

The court heard that instead of stopping, Daniel Morgan drove the bulldozer over the vehicles and continued on....."


Without knowing, I'm going to guess this is Ireland.

".....The court heard he had been drinking at The New Inn when he became angry about comments made about the breakdown of his marriage.

He then left and made threats over text including to the pub's owner Christopher Common, saying "be careful, you can't stop a 'dozer" and "it will be a drive thru".

Common said he did not believe the threats were real and said Morgan had been dealing with "personal issues"

Nothing better than a psycho-bulldozer story......except that guy that stole a tank and went on a rampage.

When Teaman decides he has had enough, he should steal a tank and go on a rampage....go out in a blaze of glory.
That shit would fly in Florida. He'd  be a hero and we could live vicariously through his triumph by being able to say that we were there to egg him on when he flipped out.

I'm guessing it gets hot in a tank. Somewhere it said they pattern the controls of modern war machines after the 'joysticks' for video games because that is what is familiar to progressively more pans-ified generations of Americans emerge from their parents' basements. The new ones are probably air-conditioned.

There was a guy who stole a tank and drove it through the military police headquarters at Ft. Hood when I was stationed there. Through the front wall and out the back. No on was hurt.
