Pebble Beach, home of teh awesome when it comes to golf courses.
OrangeManBad is totes, a racist.
St. Andrews is a mandatory admission to any montage of links.
“Are you going to eat your fat?”
“The Challenge” at Manele Bay on Lanai. Except for this hole, where I put a five wood across the ocean within 10′ of the pin, this course ate my lunch.
“Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio”
“The Experience” at Koele, also on Lanai but at 2,000′ instead of by the water. Completely different environment. Lunch, eaten.
Nigerian channels Florida Man.
“The Plantation” at Kapalua. Constant wind, everything drains towards the ocean. My breakfast, lunch, and dinner relished by this golf course. I think I shot 120.
This isn’t San Francisco where you can do whatever you want on the streets.
I played a tournament at the Olympic Club when I was on the high school golf team. I was an 8 handicap. Yep, it dined on my midday meal as well as the others.
Oh, FFS. My own state has become infected.
You ever play Merion? Any putt over 10′ and you are looking at two breaks. Caddy just said to putt it straight at the hole and let the breaks curl it in.
Never played that one. What killed me at Kapalua is that there were no level greens and you were putting on glass.
Any roosters running around the course?
Not that I remember but that was a number of years ago.
I was blessed to play 18 and lunch in the clubhouse at Augusta some years back.
The 12th or 13th, the pic on the from page was the only hole I pared.
Bogey double bogey for the remainder except for 1 infinity.
It was an amazing experience.
It was like playing golf in a church.
I had no played in years due to a back issue. I was ordered by the person who invited me to go to the driving range prior as to not embarrass the member.
Titty bars got in the way.
I was told by the member not to tip the caddies because they didn’t want them to get spoilt by getting double tipped. I slid mine a hundred and explained I hadn’t played in years and asked for his help in not embarrassing the member.
I feed off in front of 100 people for the first time ever. Double bogey on the first hole so all is well.
On number 2 we all drove within 20 yards of each other. I was first up.
I hit a smoker on the par 4 that rolled up on the fringe. It took off low and then began to gain altitude, straight as a arrow.
One of the other caddies exclaimed in a loud voice, ” it’s been HOW MANY YEARS SINCE YOU HIT A GOLF BALL” ?
They had obviously been talking amongst themselves.
That’s good stuff and a memory of a lifetime.
Yes indeed Tater. I spent $1,300 in the pro shop after the tour we got.
I touched Tiger’s locker.
After all these years it’s the only tournament I watch and make a party around so I can brag ….been there ….done that.
The greens were a mirage.
The caddie would stand off at a 45 degree or more and say let the ball die here.
If you listened you got close.
We had ground ribeye burgers for lunch between rounds.
I followed the lead and ate mine with a knife and fork.
President Donald Trump says he ‘personally vouched’ for A$AP Rocky’s bail in a phone call with Sweden’s Prime Minister on Saturday
He’s just trying to make Sweden white again.
The Kardashians got to the Donald again? No love for Julian Assange apparently though
The trick is to lure all the Latinos in with a promotion of a Latino concert, then shut the doors and check by ICE. Sort of a giant live trap.
I’m reading that article and trying to puzzle out any other interpretation besides “the band has illegals in it”.
All the places the band was playing have a heavy Hispanic population due to agriculture. Target rich environments.
Ah, so 4×20 was on the right track.
Cops have done similar things.
Congratulations! You just won a raffle! Come pick up your free bike!

Heh, classic
To this day I write “kat fud” on the grocery list when needed.
Letterman had a car full of free tacos. Fronting for ICE?
Didn’t Dunphy used to brag about the bullshit?
Getting HIPAA data from medical facilities I believe.
Yeah, I remember that.
I thought he also bragged about setting up cars with keys in them to see if anyone stole the car?
That Nigerian guy was bringing me my share of the inheritance. He couldn’t afford a ticket until I sent him my credit card info, I guess.
Next time I’ll have to react faster.
I hope that the cancer treatment does work, too much of that going around.
Nahh Man, Jussie needed a new Fall guy.
I thought the Nigerian wanted to reenact a Twilight Zone episode.
Not a euphemism. “Fuzzing the line” Is actually an obscure pun, which means taking a switch stick and outting the metal head against the conductor and pulling it away slowly, If the power is still on it makes a “fuzzing sound.” Fuzz the line, get it!?
I got away with a narrowed gaze.
Hey, i don’t judge you’re hobbies.
Paging Ted…
I think i did a good enough job on my own, thank you very much.

See? Chop up some words, throw them in a bucket with a handful of punctuation, let them rot in the sun for a bit and then broadcast them on the forum.
It worked…
Having seen the ASAP “brawl” video, I was actually impressed with his restraint. That group following them around and refusing to go away was creepy as fuck. Once the punches started being thrown it was, shall we say, extremely one-sided.
My dad lived in Sweden during the 80’s. He said that a lot of what people knew was what they saw on TV, and that Pro-Wrestling was big. So a lot of Swedes thought Americans could brawl pretty well.
Sweden in the 80’s would have been interesting. I have never been but would like to check out the Scandinavian countries for sure.
In this case, the stereotype was true and the Americans with the ASAP guy pretty much beat the shit out of the people following them around.
I’ve checked the video, too. It’s daylight and the area doesn’t look ghetto. I’ll be in Stockholm later this month. How can I avoid such a place?
Also, people mentioning Kanye above: he has already been officially un-personned for being, like, racist, yo.
Plus he totally stole the mIc from that racist Taylor Swift.
Since I was late to the last thread, I’ll say it here:
Absolutely replace that breaker. If it’s the only thing you do today, go get it done. Now.
I had a similar situation, and it almost burned my house down. The breaker kept tripping even with only a small load.
I kept resetting it, and forgot about it. A few months later, I was running a rather large laser printing job in my upstairs office.
The breaker melted in the closed position, and melted the 2 breakers above and below it in the sub panel.
I smelled it, ran outside, and cut power at the main panel. I was probably about one minute away from a full blown inferno.
I spent yesterday tearing down, cleaning, and rebuilding our dryer. It’s a stupid stacked washer/dryer and it seems that the amount of lint stopped by the lint filter is only slightly more than half of the lint produced. The rest has been building up inside the dryer and started smoldering Friday night. Terrifying.
Happened to my neighbor across the street. I was out of town, and I got about 4 notifications in 10 minutes from my Ring doorbell. Each one was another fire truck pulling up.
There was lint stuck inside the walls.
Yikes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_sY2rjxq6M
I did replace the breaker, despite my grumbling.
You done good, UCS, I’m proud of you.
For what its worth
Well, no one else was going to do it.
Oh, hey, the storm is here. That could also knock out the power…
Is A$AP Rocky famous? I’ve never heard about him, but it means nothing.
Gotta keep an ear to the streets, brah.
He is apparently famous as far as being a mumble-rapper/Instagram influencers make you super popular with the Yutes.
Wonder Woman: Was It Really THAT GOOD?
Dunno, i got burned out on superhero movies
Hugely overrated. Actually did really like Gadot (aka Gal GADAYUM) in it but, all in all, the story and acting and dialogue were mostly not compelling in the slightest.
I thought it was terrible, the dialogue was crap
By DC movie standards, yes.
By Marvel movie standards, no.
By DC animated movie standards, hell no!
Never saw it, but the whole “woke remake” genre seems very patronizing. Is Hollywood saying that non-white men can only hope to retread and rode the coattails of successful movies or they are so bereft of talent that the writers can’t come up with anything original that happens to have someone black or a woman in it?
I don’t believe there ever was a Wonder Woman movie before this one.
Wasn’t Linda Carter in a movie?
IMDB has nothing on it if she was. But I just found out that she was in Skyrim!
Oh, it was a TV show. Definitely before my time.
*shakes head*
Get off my lawn!
I came really close to making a joke about Linda’s magic asshole, but decided to refrain.
Just thought I’d let y’all know.
Thanks for the latest installment of SNP. Fucking awesome.
Yea. That’s a deep, dark path no one wants to go down.
Thank you & l0b0t (below).
Rebel Scum, I see what you did there.
Over the past few years I’ve stopped going to the movies, mostly because it’s getting harder and harder to find something that doesn’t suck.
Wonder Woman was the first movie in many years that I really enjoyed. And it led me to Aquaman and a movie hero who sucks down Jack Daniels from a bottle allows me to ignore any of the other downfalls of the flick.
Daughter 1 gave us a gift certificate for the local dinner and a movie place last Christmas but we haven’t used it yet because I can’t find a movie that I want to watch.
No. It was not terrible, but it had issues.
So, it’s in the high 90°s and we just lost power for 2 hours. The house temp jumped from 70° to 86° (lots and lots of South and West facing windows). It’s back on now but the aftermath – cranky wife and kids, is just getting started.
Fuck… if I lose power I won’t be a happy camper. I just did the dishes and trimmed my beard in non-AC parts of the house and it was not pleasant. Dinner is gonna have to be something out of the microwave, cuz I ain’t cooking in this shit.
If you have any ice left in the freezer, make her a drink and rub her shoulders.
Smack the kids if they mouth off.
I like the way you think. Also, I really enjoyed the return of SNP; thanks.
I was going to suggest smacking everybody, but your idea is better
Time to run out for pizza ?. By which I mean go to the bar.
Meant as a reply to L0b0t. *sigh*
I started drinking early today.
So bourbon in your morning coffee in bed?
I waited until 11:15. An afternoon nap has helped me get through a Manhattan, so far.
Went to lunch with family and had some martinis. Then had some wine. Time for some bourbon.
I’ve spent the day (in fits and starts) working on my business plan. I think I deserve some rye.
What kind of business?
Machining. Plan on buying a CNC lathe.
???
My dad is a (semi) retired machinist.
Cool!
MikeS, egould310, you might like this video: 1751 machine that started everything.
MikeS, my little bit of advice…my dad suffers from (seemingly) occupational hearing loss. Ear (and eye protection) is very important. Also, don’t wear jewelry and be careful with gloves. Shit happens. Fast.
Machining. Plan on buying a CNC lathe.
You going to make these?
Very cool, BP! I subscribed to that channel.
‘sloper: Ha! No, although I guess I wouldn’t turn down the work if someone asked.
I am thinking about playing around with stuff like this if there’s any money in it.
Mike…..aaah, ya those may be a big seller. And good luck with the biz. CNC machining and wood working machines can do mind boggling things these days.
Sean: Thanks for the concern and advice. But I am well aware of the dangers. PPE will be worn at all times. And regarding gloves; yeah. Never wear gloves with any kind of machine that spins. Unfortunately, a coworker (who knew better wore gloves on the manual lathe a couplew months ago, got distracted for a split second and paid the price.
Here’s his glove
And his arm TW: not for weak stomachs. No blood, just scars and pins sticking out of it.
If he wasn’t such a strong guy, he’d be dead. The lathe was pulling him in and he just pushed as hard as he could with his free arm and somehow got himself out. Amazing. The material even spun in the chuck. SMH
Best wishes on your new business!
Thanks DEG. And everyone else for the good vibes.
It’s very early in the process, and things could go south, but I have a good feeling about it.
Yes, best wishes for your new venture. My advice was based on close to home stories. Sounds like you get it, out of the gate. And I’m not clicking those links above.
Also, put me in for the first batch of Glibs throwing stars. ?
???
I did just that. Well, actually, went for pizza. But, the pizza parlor is across the street from a brand new fancy-pants liquor store (huzzah for gentrification) so I now have pizza pie AND a bottle of High West Bourye to make the evening brighter.

Brighter = blackout drunk
Just arrived at the Port Brewing/Lost Abbey brewing operation. A couple of Wipeout IPA’s and on to SanDiego International to pick up Mrs. Gould. She got stranded in Detroit yesterday when her flight was canceled. The closest fastest flight back to SoCal was to SD.
I’ve had a lovely day crawling the back roads of Riverside snd San Diego counties, listening to my tunes and drinking brews.
Cheers!!
A newly designed drug delivery system is capable of disguising chemotherapeutics as fat, a favorite snack of cancerous tumors, creating an effect likened to the “Trojan horse” tale heralded in Greek lore.
This is pretty fucking cool.
A video taken by a passenger on the aircraft shows the man moving around the wing of the plane as frightened passengers called on the crew to open the exit doors.
He’s just imitating old-timey barnstormers. Nothing wrong with that.
Two tourists to Venice, Italy, were forced to wake up and smell the coffee after getting smacked with a $1,067 fine for brewing up java with a travel cooker on the steps of a historic bridge.
I’ve heard Venice is expensive, but that is a strange way to avoid buying a coffee from a coffeeshop.
I started out with a Dark n Stormy, and I’ve moved on to a Sly Fox Helles. It takes a little more like a Pilsner to me.
?
I hope they used more appropriately colorful language with her.
The coffee brewers looked like they smelled of b.o. Being German, I think that’s likely regardless of whether or not they’re dirty hippies. When I was in my early 20s there was this cute German chick who had moved to the US for college and decided to stay. I knew of her through an ex-girlfriend who hung out with her. We went to the same parties and lived near each other so I went out with her a couple of times, not really dates so much as inviting her along to stuff that was already happening and then leaving the door open for whatever might happen afterwards. She was into me, but she always smelled a little, well, gamey. Turns out she didn’t use deodorant because she thought it was unnatural or whatever.
Ya, what’s her face number two had a friend who thought deodorant was unnatural. She wiped her pits with a crystal. She was a beautiful woman who stunk like BO which is very natural as in being a host for warm moisture loving bacteria.
With the regulatory nightmare that is the pharmaceutical industry, we should be grateful for the very possibility that this will be brought to market.
I don’t golf. Well, I really enjoy Put-Put golf, particularly the courses with big interactive features. I did however, learn to play lacrosse after joining the Army (growing up in Florida, I had never heard tell of such a game). While stationed at Ft. Ord I joined a team – The Monterey Sharks; I was one of 2 soldiers and the only enlisted man on the team (it was almost exclusively Navy officers from the Naval Postgraduate Institute). The team captain was a local (Carmel) gadfly whose father owns a nice bar (Bud’s Pub) and has a membership at Pebble Beach. We would occasionally have drunken team outings that devolved into driving for distance out into the Pacific. There is little that upsets wealthy Japanese golfers more than paying an obscene amount of money to play and running into a crowd of louts with a keg on their golf-cart. Good times…
My mom made the mistake of dragging me to golf once with her and my future step-father. I have never been so fucking bored out of my mind.
Lacrosse is a great game and I miss playing like hell, mostly for the men’s league post-game drinks when we’d reminisce about how good we used to be.
Indeed! We would often lose games but we ALWAYS won the parties.
Growing up in Maryland I assumed lacrosse was common everywhere. I didn’t realize until I was a teenager that it’s really pretty much just the mid-Atlantic, the northeast, and California.
I went SCUBA diving in Stillwater Cover once. They were required to have two parking spaces for diver access. It just so happens, you have to walk right by the big glass windows at the restaurant to go from those parking spots to the cove access. When we were slogging back to the car, dripping a stream of water as we walked, two security guards confronted us and asked if we were done. We replied, “yeah, that dive sucked”. We then continued to the car where we proceeded to strip down right in front of those big restaurant windows.
So here I will drop my guilty TV show watching. There’s a show on now called Holey Moley. It’s about a mini-golf competition that you can win $25K at. The announcers for it sound like the guys from Dodgeball. The course they built is insane, and for dumb drunk entertainment, it’s worth watching.
I kind of missWipeout.
Another article on the concert cancellation. A rumor from an activist with no proof, a denial of any operations planned in Idaho by ICE and three concerts cancelled because, reasons.
https://magicvalley.com/news/local/social-media-posts-about-jerome-ice-activity-lead-to-music/article_806f1371-51b3-5c41-8ef3-41c5c079fb5d.html
The heck? I added a comment and it vanished.
Anyway I hope that hotel told the nosey sleuth to pound sand.
Washington state sued and won some hotel chain for giving info to ICE, so I reckon the hotel would probably not cooperate even if they are in Idaho.
I don’t care if it’s ICE or anti-ICE, giving out info without a warrant is a big no-no.
/worked at 5 different hotels
Since, Washington is 100 miles within an international border, I’m sure the PATRIOT Act gives ICE agents super-special 4th Amendment ignoring powers.
Because Mexican Muslims.
Not that I approve of a hotel informing on its guests, but what business was that of Washington State?
Guessing something along these lines.
Well done.
I think everyone should be aware that Spud originally Gilmored this comment.
Ah.
Damn! I thought I had gotten away with it.
Nope
Hello everybody! I left CR at 5am local, and 665 miles later I’m in Las Cruces NM, hanging with Bella and some Beer. Monday I start an O’Reilly auto parts, never done one, it should be interesting,
TALL CANS!
TALL VODKA TUMBLER!
ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES FROM CONTAINERS!!!
Drinking beers! Cheers to you and yours!
I’m solo, well Bella is here… no Hoomans
Man’s Best Friend and I presume doesn’t drink the Tall Cans. Double lucky
She travels well, she prefers chocolate milk to beer
I don’t know about the chemicals in chocolate milk substituting for real chocolate, but isn’t chocolate bad for dogs?
In quantity, it can kill them. Messes up their cardio, I think.
I stopped giving my cats the bottom of my cereal milk when I learned it’s bad for most cats. They are not pleased.
I had a lab that ate an entire 24 count box of Hershey’s chocolate bars. Didn’t faze her a bit. And for the next two days, I just looked for the glint of the foil when picking up poop.
Dark chocolate is supposedly worse than milk chocolate.
Rhy, our Maine Coon is rather aggressive in his quest to get me to hurry up and finish the damn cereal so he can take over. He gets a bowl every couple weeks (I don’t eat as much cereal as I once did) and only takes a couple sips of the milk but he REALLY, REALLY wants to get at it.
Mine can not only smell milk from across the house but they would attack the shit out the bowl when I was done with it, including swiping at each other.
I tried cat treats on them a couple times – they won’t touch them.
RACIST!!!
Good luck! I’ll join you with another beer in a little bit.
err… join you in drinking another beer. Las Cruces is a bit too far to just hop on over.
it too far alright, and real hot, looks like an overnight job, start at 10 PM kind of thing,
I just had AC installed in my house. An attic job which just covers the upstairs and is all I need (there is a ductless unit for the downstairs). I ran right up against the installer’s deadline for attic installations. They got it done just in time before the hot weather started here and they did a good job.
Good luck on the job!
Very Cool, and thanks, same stuff ,more complex, I like complex
Having been to Port Harcourt I imagine some passengers wished the flight was cancelled.

“President Trump said that Kanye West (left) called him to ask him if he could help ASAP Rocky (right), who has been detained in Stockholm since July 3, sparking a social media campaign for his release”
Doesn’t Kanye have enough of his own money to bail him out?
Kanye has the prez on speed dial? I’m gonna check the white pages, I missed that number.
“White” pages?

Yeah, that gave me pause too – one article I read said he has “a direct line to Trump”. Best timeline something something.

Marginally SFW.
One look at her “cosplay”, and my first thought was “porn performer”.
Well, I guess it depends on your definition, but I’d say all the cosplay models who sell nudes are selling porn.

I guess I need read the morning links.

Did you cover your Webcam?
You were looking at her face?
On Oahu Kailua Klipper has great sea front holes. I just use a range ball since the ocean will just draw at least one ball in three Oceanside holes.
There is also a “hidden” public course on Oahu. More oceanfront than nearby Turtle Bay and $11 for a round.
You know who else has great front holes?
Carlsbad Caverns?
Tiger Tanks?
Eventually, if not initially.
F-86’s?
A sun warmed watermelon lined with corn silk? Asking for a friend.

yay – finally got power back, which went out at 2:30AM last night. Huge storm, thunder sounded like a bomb exploded over my house. Trees in the neighborhood fell and the generators were going full blast all day.
Go you!
Good news!
I’m guessing you and your marauders took full advantage of the blackout by pillaging your neighbors.
The generators need guzzoline to run.
Yo, OM, on the road, so couldn’t comment on your misfortune. Tucson has quite the thriving little tech industry, lots of aerospace and some biomed. Sadly, I have zero connections, but there might be some work for you here.
I was watching a Tucson soccer match the other day and the commentator kept saying “Tooks-on”. I was questioning my sanity. Nobody really says that, do they?
Jesus no…. It’s pronounced “Two-sahn.”
Not “Spoke-anne”?

Stupid fucking updates.
Because I lost power, the programs figured “oh, we can go and make changes”, and promptly lost all my settings and recovery data.
No, I did not want updates either. I don’t care what changes the programmers made, they’re almost always for the worse.
*sigh* I should calm down. I lost all of 33 words, since I save often, but still, it pisses me off.
Oh for fuck’s sake, it also lost all my autoruin settings and other options.
You run an update, I should not have to go through and recreate all my templates and options settings to turn off stupid shit. Especially since all of those options exist and do the same thing before and after the changes.
Autoruin? Sounds like a John-o.
They label it as “Autocorrect” which in every case takes the correct value and makes it wrong.

That’s not at all suggestive.
A friend stopped by with some ahi steaks from a tuna he caught yesterday. In a few hours I will grill one up medium rare and top it with homemade pesto right at the end. Asparagus wrapped in bacon, dredged in egg with panko crumbs and grilled for the veggie. I still need to decide on the pinot noir.
Enjoy.
I’ve never cared for the texture of raw or undercooked fish. It just feels wrong.
What about sushi?
Well that has the triple downside of seaweed, vinegared rice and the occassional raw fish.
He only eats fruit sushi.
Medium rare sounds good enough to me. I also don’t like raw.
Third. Also, DO NOT look at this link if you’re eating, or planning to eat in the near future.
Like, within the next couple days.
I’m not too worried about getting worms from sushi… Most of it has been in a deep-freeze at some point, which would kill most of those organisms. And that looks like a pretty extreme case; the dude probably ignored the symptoms and waited forever before going to the doctor.
I don’t worry about worms from sushi either, but that’s more just because I never eat sushi.
Like I needed you to re-enforce my (corect) decision not to click.
Fair enough, Akira, but I think I’ll stick with banginglc’s plan.
The hover text is helpful – no way I’m clicking on that.
You can’t get that from ocean fish.
Oh, and do not eat anything raw from freshwater.
Do not eat raw salmon that isn’t farmed raised. Most of the stuff from New Zealand is superb.
Raw, wild salmon is typically harvested in a blend of fresh/salt water. The potential for intestinal worms are not worth the risk.
Do not eat fresh fish thing fresh Ness equal sushi quality.
.sushi quality equals being frozen below a certain temp that kills all bugs.
Fresh fish is not equally sushi
You kill me with your tuna tales.
Wasn’t Tuna Tales on Pornhub?
Or Disney channel?
It started on Disney, but moved to Pornhub as Miley got older.
Not white wine with fish?
A nice thick tuna steak is more like steak than fish. It will be dark red in the middle.
Yes. And delicious.
That sounds tasty. What Pinots are you looking at?
Thinking about a Hahn from the “Doctors” field, or one of several from Paso Robles.
I’d probably go with the Hahn for Tuna but it also depends on how big the Paso Pinots are.
MSNBC host says Trump supporters’ ‘rage’ must be ‘destroyed’: ‘It cannot be negotiated with’
https://www.foxnews.com/media/chris-hayes-msnbc-trump-supporters-rage-destroyed
***
His supporters, who chanted “send her back” at the mention of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., reveled in their own “Americanness and primacy at the expense of others,” Hayes said on Thursday.
“All In” host Hayes accused Trump supporters of exhibiting a type of “passion” and “rage” that fueled Republican politics. “That sentiment at the core of the coalition cannot be pried loose and it cannot be negotiated with and it cannot be appeased,” Hayes said.
“It must be peacefully, non-violently, politically destroyed with love, compassion, and determination — but utterly confronted and destroyed,” he added. “That is the only way to break the coalition apart.”

Glad to see you back. I don’t recall seeing you here for quite a while.
I think the army hid him away for a while.
Oh shit, that’s right.
lolhorror
I don’t get the big outrage at this other than “send her back” is stupid because nobody who becomes a naturalized citizen can be sent back that I know of. I say it all the time on a local level about newcomers to my home state and local area. Go back to wherever the fuck you are from and stop screeching and voting in asshats who steal our liberty and stomp on especially the 2nd amendment. We value those things here and if you don’t like it choose somewhere else to live. I don’t see any difference in applying that to a national level, and I imagine most Americans don’t either. The outrage at this is going to be a big nothing burger other than more amplify the disconnect between the Democrats and the majority of Americans. Who are apparently giant racists regardless of race.
If they commited immigration fraud, they can have their citizenship revoked and be deported. Usually that involves lying on some form or another.
Off the top of my head, I can cite the Womens’ March terrorist Odeh, who lied about her conviction for murdering two people in an Israeli supermarket. She lost her citizenship and got shipped back.

“In the nine months beginning with November 2016, about 3.2% to 3.6% more preterm births to Latina women occurred above the levels of preterm births that would have been expected had the election not occurred, the study suggests”

OFFS
“about 3.2% to 3.6%”. “About” with a spread of .4% in a study with an error of what +-/- 5%?
Maybe it was global warming?
Let’s just overlook all the gaping holes in that study and ask one thing: How would they know that this was all Trump’s fault? Why wouldn’t they chalk up any of the blame to the Democrats and their media operatives who were pumping out 24/7 propaganda saying that Trump was literally going to have his Einsatzgruppen comb the country and murder all Hispanics??

Huh, a neighbor is doing rooftop fireworks. Pretty professional operation, too. I won’t open a window to watch.
That’s probably for the best. I’m sure Shot-Spotter is throwing alarms and ESU is suiting up already.

I do wonder if “shot spotter” operates in my neighborhood – it’s relatively safe here.
I would very much like to know what all the electro-geegaws and gimcracks that festoon every traffic light and lamppost in the city are. I recall a video where a fellow rigged his EasyPass up to a wee light that illuminated every time the pass was pinged. It was scanned at intersections all over Manhattan.
Fuck that shit. I’ll pay in change this fall when I am in the area.
If you are in a rental car it will have a transponder.
Pay by Plate (plate scanners read your plate and send a bill to you) and EZPass only are starting to pop up in the northeast. The Mass Pike now has no cash options. I don’t know if these have popped up in the NYC area yet.
I hate the pay by plate. It’s just a way to hide and defer costs to keep people from understanding how much they are paying. It’d be different if roads were private.
Yup. The only cash toll left (of which I am aware) is the bridge to Long Beach ($2 each way or $15 for a 20 trip pass-card). All the other bridges I use are Easy-Pass/toll-by-plate.

I’m 100 percent in favor of legalizing the public exposure of breasts… But if that ever happens, I don’t want to hear any goddamn complaining from women who were walking around topless and fell victim to the barbaric “male gaze”. You’re exposing an erogenous zone – either accept the staring, or put on a shirt.
Meh. The whole “free the nipple” bullshit is a Marxist rejection of human nature.
Should it be legal? Sure, why not. Don’t complain when it also means men flopping around in public, too.
I know I’ll be staring.
Going down that path, it shouldn’t be too long before woke, male socialists wear The Bro.

Manssiere!
Yazoo Nomad to wrap up the night. It’s OK.
I used to work with a guy who’s wife blamed him for everything. And I mean everything. There was nothing that wasn’t his fault. One day he came in to work and told a story of how she hit the wrong gas pedal instead of the brake while pulling in the garage. She jumped the car forward and damaged the grill on his toolbox. It was his fault for storing a toolbox in the garage, not hers for hitting the wrong pedal. We used to make fun of him a lot.
Most democrats today are doing the same thing with Trump.
Yup. Of course he keeps using the laser pointer so it’s unsurprising they go for it.
Please tell me at some point your friend divorced his wife.
Nope. He’s they type of guy that I’m fairly certain he was a virgin before they met in college and she’s the only one who ever slept with him. True facts about their relationship:
1.They would go backcountry camping together. When she had to take a dump, he had to dig a hole for her and fill it back up, she wouldn’t do it herself.
2. She didn’t want kids, he did, they reevaluated and decided kids were a no go.
3. They work in two different towns. When I first met him, they lived inbetween them. “They” decided that they wanted to live in the town she works in and he needs to commute an hour each way.
4. They aren’t allowed to go to his parents house for Easter or Christmas because his parents will make them go to church.
There are countless other examples. Honestly, I liked the guy and felt bad, but I did get a lot of entertainment out of his relationship.
***
Proverbs 21:19
It’s better to live alone in the desert than with a quarrelsome, complaining wife.
***
Better alone than with bad company.
That is depressing. I was hoping he was waiting for the kids to grow up before flipping her the bird and moving out.
Honestly, I used to think it was depressing too. However, I really do think he’s convinced himself he’s happy. I don’t know how he does it. Before we lost touch, he did tell my it got better when she went on some medication. He didn’t elaborate further than that.
My friend met this girl in high school, and she was an insanely jealous hellcat for a while. Had him completely whipped; he seemed high-strung all the time. If he looked at another female for any reason, he got chewed out. If he didn’t look, he was still suspected of looking and got chewed out anyway.
It got to the point where it was damaging his career and relationships with his family. It was an extreme rarity for us to ever see him without her, and if he did go somewhere without her, she would call him constantly and require him to step away and talk to her (mostly explaining that he’s just hanging out with friends, not fucking other women).
But over the years she just calmed down, and she no longer goes apeshit if another woman is around. I think part of it was just the maturation process. They have a pretty good marriage now.
… So maybe there’s hope.
I have a long-time friend in a similar situation. She’s mellowed out a lot over the years. At the beginning – oh my God, the stories.
Sounds like my mom.

I am having a pre-dinner time drink to the July 20, 1944 conspirators. They were not perfect men but attempted to kill Hitler this day in 1944. The lucky ones died the same night in front of a firing squad. Most of the rest died by horrible means. Their efforts were rejected by the majority of their countrymen for almost 40 years.

I am the very model of a modern major radical.
But no, not really. Happy to watch it on a date, though.
Yes. Though G&S are their way out to being dumped in the unwoke bin, aka everything that came before current year.
Oh lord yes. Frankly, I think the reason nobody is burning G&S records in the street is because so few people know who they are these days. The Mikado alone would give these SJWs the fucking vapors… Although Princess Ida seems to have an anti-feminist streak in it.
Have you ever watched or listened to Ruddigore all the way through? I honestly think it’s some of the best G&S music. I find myself listening to that one more than any other. I think because its opening was such a flop, it sort of missed the boat and never became enduring classics like The Mikado, HMS Pinafore, or Pirates of Penzance.
My older bros did acting and music respectively for their HS musicals incl. The Mikado, Guy and Dolls, and The Music Man. I was a wee lad but it formed a lot of great memories, and an appreciation for that stuff.

Naked Came the Manatee (ISBN 978-0399141928) is a mystery thriller parody novel published in 1996. It is composed of thirteen chapters, each written by a different Miami-area writer.
…
The plot involves three crime-fighting characters from three of the writers’ previous, non-parody, mystery/thriller works coming together to help an elderly environmentalist and her granddaughter investigate the mystery behind a package delivered by a precocious Miami-area manatee named Booger. John Dufresne opens his chapter in a spoof on Moby-Dick, with the line “Call me Booger…”

Maybe I’m an outlier but “pillowy” TP is a joke.
I also have no problem with Comrade Deblasio telling us what is acceptable to flush – it does seem to be within his job description, unlike the vast majority of everything else he does.
Yea, I get the cheapest toilet paper possible. I may be the kind of guy who shells out for the fancy coffee beans, but I’m not spending more money to pamper my butthole.
That’s crazy talk. I’m cheap as hell, but things that come in contact with my skin are all premium product. I’ll leave the John Wayne TP for others.
^this^
TBF, there is *really* cheap TP that is actually worse than, say, the Scott tissue I usually buy. Typically found in office buildings.
I buy second-cheapest of a lot of things.
Yup. I will sacrifice other things to have decent tp. The aloe infused is oh so nice.
It’s a rare case where the cheapest is among the most effective.
I’m sorry, it’s quilted northern, kleenex cottonelle, or GTFO. These are just the rules.
Also, I have the bidet attachment at home and only use TP to dry off.
I find that the fancy-schmancy toilet paper is more likely to clog my toilet.
I have a pre-low flow toilet, I don’t have these worries.
I’m with ya. We like the Cottonelle with the green label (with the aloe) paired with flushable wet-wipes.
A handful of poison ivy leaves would also be effective and cheap. This is about comfort.
The expensive stuff falls apart in there. It’s a complete waste of money.
Good Lord! Fucking Glibs and their stream-of-consciousness threads about anything and everything. I love this site!
I’ll agree if you’re talking about Charmin, the most overrated TP ever. If you’re referring to anything else, I think you need to be a bit less aggressive with the stuff. You don’t have to make it sore to know it’s clean.

My 91 year old neighbor called me today. Her kids are making her move to assisted living. She told me that there are 2 stray cats (both fixed) that she feeds one is 16 and one is 12. She was scared they would starve to death. I promised her I wouldn’t let them starve. So I guess I have two outdoor cats now.
I’ll miss her, she was one of the best neighbors ever. I loved her vernacular. She used to say things like. “well, before you moved in, that chinnee fellar lived there” and “I didn’t mind the prostitutes being around cuz no whore ever mugged me.” Another favorite, “well, I have two kids but neither one of them is worth a damn”
I’m always conflicted when a parent says stuff like that about their own kids. It’s honest, but also raises the question of why did those kids turn out the way they did.
I could see her being quite the firecracker when she was younger. I’m fully aware that I got to know the 86-91 y/o version of her that was probably subdued and calm compared to what she once was.
Might be anecdotal, but I think my grandfather is taking the opposite route. That is to say that he is less filtered now than earlier in life. He is a peaceful and funny guy that can talk to anyone for hours. But he has taken a turn to being, well, kinda like the grandma in wedding Crashers.
That was my MIL. I only knew her when she was the quiet always smiling old lady. Quite a bit different than how my wife knew her.
Amazing how some people change when it becomes clear that they’ll need someone to help them in their old age.
I’m not sure how intentional it was, but it worked out the same more or less. There was a definite decline in her mental facilities. Despite her flaws, a fascinating lifespan. Growing up with horse and buggies to surfing recipes and email relatives in her 90’s.

Then he goes on to suggest that he operates within logic systems by the rules established. It just went around and around. I honestly didn’t get his point.
Every logical system begins with axioms. Axiom comes from a Greek word that means “worthy, self-evident”.
