Hair today, gone tomorrow.

Big time rabbit hole… I’ve gone down it a few times in the past. I also enjoy reaction videos from sports moments or even public disasters. I’m fascinated with how people respond in such situations!

If I'm not mistaken, the Finn was once asked was it hard to kill a man. He said it was. Men tended to run and jump about.

@axtremus said in When Helping People, Be Humble About It:

Nah, that's asking for too much. If you help people and feel like bragging about it anyway, I'd say go ahead. I am not going to dissuade a braggart from helping others just because he's braggart. Lots of assistance to others are motivated by PR considerations, beliefs in karma, and/or tax benefits. So what? Go ahead and help anyway.

Even more democrat

Use someone else's money to help people and take credit.

Lots to consider there. Serious topics.

The ones that are caught might get tested. The ones that don't, never get tested.

BTW, folks, there are sales today! Get some new ones.

OTOH, lawfare can be a useful tactic, . . .

Assuming the judge doesn't roll his eyes throw the case out of court.

@george-k said in Third Shot:

Is there an argument that I did the wrong thing? On Wednesday the World Health Organization called for a moratorium on booster shots so that more doses can go to low-income nations. Earlier the New York Times quoted Maureen Kelley of the WHO: “If I make a decision to go get a booster, I think I’m complicit in my government’s or the pharma companies’ decisions,” she said. “I don’t think we can easily separate out the individual decisions from these kind of more policy-level decisions.”

I don’t know what the WHO is making a stink about. They have ivermectin. They can totally embarrass the US.

The question on Ivermectin is does it work and when should it be given? I think the jury is out on both counts.

You have 7 billion prospects for it, why not hand it out like candy and see what happens? A conspiracy to kill it in the US is irrelevant to its healing powers.

It's hard to think of a topic that is less useful for ordinaries to spend time contemplating. It's like a pillbug worrying about Oak Wilt.

Lol so many errors in that, it's not even worth it to point them out.

Pervy has nervy.

The only one who seems to be unaware of the desperate state of affairs is the governor.

Aides close to the governor say he is pushing for a press conference to refute James’s report in further detail, though it’s unclear if and when that plan will come to fruition as they try to talk him down.

Cuomo’s initial response Tuesday was a 14-minute, pre-taped video in which he said he and his family have experienced a hard and painful past few months, but he’d like to share his side of the story.

@copper said in F'ing motorcycles:

For a few years I had dinner every first Wednesday of the month with a retired Air Force One pilot, he flew Nixon, Ford and Carter.

At the time he was in his late 70s. Years before, he promised his family he would stop flying the small planes, like I flew, when he reached age 60. I was age 62 at the time.

This man was probably the most talented pilot I ever met. And I have met a bunch of talented pilots.

If he quit at age 60, why was I still doing this at age 62?

There comes a time to ask that question.

My friends' step father, Bill is 95 years old and stills flies GA. I am not sure if this will affect his certification but, he just had a heart valve replaced and was home two days later.

No. That would only encourage him.

Whew!

Cute.
