  1. Really? The sarcasm dripping from my post didn’t indicate anything?
  2. Obviously it is to prevent those cheatin’ dems from stealing more elections. Everyone knows any mail in ballot voted is a vote for dems. Don’t want to make it easy or convenient for registered dem voters to actually get those ballots turned in. All self respecting repubs do it the old fashioned way, they go to the polling place, in person, preferably with their open carry sidearm and Trump 2024 shirt in plain sight.
  3. On this one very limited issue Archy is correct. States have different rules and limits. In Colorado, one person can deliver/turn in up to 10 ballots. Anyone the voter determines to deliver for them is okay. Nebraska has no specific rules. Other states limit this activity to only relatives or caregivers and some states have different numbers of ballots specified. I presume the laws are to prevent the illicit kind of ballot harvesting that some believe to be the reason that Republicans don’t actually win every election in a landslide.
  4. I got a free $10 bet from MGM that had to be used on the Masters. I don’t follow golf at all. I put it on Tiger to make the cut at +110 odds. So I’ll clear a whole $11 if he makes it
  5. I am highly disappointed that we never did this one.
  6. Those were either some weak a$$ BB guns or that plaster was spectacular. We had our wars outside, around the neighborhood, usually at dusk or after dark where it was highly likely that cars, house windows etc. were likely to and did take damage. It was just another evening activity like kick-the-can for us. My favorite evening trouble making activity was what we called “canning”. We would stretch fishing line across a street at bumper height and tie empty cans on the ends. Cars would drive by in the dark and the cans would swing back into the sides of the cars. We would laugh as the drivers would stop and get out to see what happened. Got chased more than once by people who figured it out
  7. So, what I’m seeing is, there is an operation called “criminal carl” and I can sell them my ballot (or be extra stupid and just give it to them) and then criminal carl will have subverted all elections that don’t go the way repubs thought they should’ve gone. And the only real victims here are DJT, his supporters and republicans. And we all know this is a huge problem and all of the “criminal carls” out there are most definitely democrats because no self respecting republican would ever do such a thing. Seems like a legit serious problem.
  8. I guess the kid in us never really grows up. I worked on a lot of construction sites. We typically didn’t have carpenters or those type of nail guns but we did have the Hilti/Red Head powder actuated nail guns for shooting nails into concrete and sheets of 2” thick styrofoam. The safety features was the outlet barrel had to be depressed so you couldn’t just shoot them like a gun so, of course, we used the styrofoam to allow us to shoot them wherever. Pro tip- nail guns like this are not very accurate
  9. Ha, must be a Nebraska thing (or just unsupervised kids back in the good ole days thing). We had bottle rocket wars and BB gun fights all the time. I remember specifically how they came to a halt. One bottle rocket war, we (my side) was winning and the other team took refuge in one of the guy’s houses. We kept shooting as they all piled through his front door. One of the bottle rockets went into the house and exploded on a wall leaving a black mark. Yeah, his mom put an end to our bottle rocket wars. The BB gun fights ended similarly. The kid that lived directly behind us across the alley took one dead center between the eyes, just above the bridge of his nose. Left a nice little indentation and of course he ran home crying. You guessed it, his mom also was extremely unhappy The line in a Christmas Story, “you’ll shoot your eye out” has extra special meaning for me and the kids I grew up with BTW, we had no pump limit on the BB guns and it was hit and miss on who chose to wear eye protection for either type of battle.
  10. The very telling point of that interview is when she says “I don’t care what the data shows. You and I have very different ideas of what’s going on.” I’d like to say it’s sad that these people are the way they are, but eff that and eff them. Sick of this f#&%ing cult. She complains of all the entitled people in this country and how terrible it is here. GTFO if ya don’t like it you epitome of entitled b!^@h.
  11. Richard Alpert and Dogen. Yeah I cheated. Nestor Carbonell was easy to pick out, his dark eye makeup always kinda creeps me out. Hiroyuki Sanada was tougher to find.
  12. If you’re interested, this is the best rundown/explanation of Lost that I’ve seen. Listing the events in chronological order helps quite a bit. https://hauntedcoconut.wordpress.com/2020/07/16/lost-the-island-smoke-monster-and-everything-else-explained/
  13. Yep. You couldn’t buy an N95 mask almost immediately after we knew what was going on. So they wanted them reserved for healthcare workers (for the greater good). They asked the rest of us to make do as best we could. I don’t recall anyone ever saying those cheap little blue masks would protect the wearer but common sense indicates it did help others (when not worn as a chin diaper). But I do understand the point of what and when should something get censored. I’m not sure I agree with the example of Covid being evidence that valuable info would be silenced. The anti-mask anti-Fauci disinformation undoubtedly caused more problems than had much of it actually been censored.
  14. And that’s great. Gotta get that instilled while they’re younger, before it’s too late. There’s a huge swath of older generations that have proven they don’t want to or can’t learn how to sort the bulls#!t.
  15. Don’t have much to add but I am happy and actually impressed that kids are being taught to discern news sources. This literally might be more important than the 3 Rs at this point in time. I also like the idea of people having to pass some sort of competency test to sign up for things. Maybe it could be applied to the ability to vote also.
  16. Okay I got all the way through Lost. I have no idea why I thought I had seen the whole series before. I think all I watched years ago was s1 and maybe part of s2. It makes perfect sense once you watch the whole thing. I was not Lost when it was over. I mean it was confusing at times with all the flash forwards, backwards and sideways and some of the weird stuff that occurs on the island but they explained everything pretty well by the end.
  17. Yeah, it isn’t getting nominated for any awards but it was kind of a fresh twist on the original. I did like the soundtrack. Lots of unique music.
  18. I hate to say it but we just may have to make the ultimate sacrifice and throw MTG into a volcano.
  19. That account doesn’t believe, it knows. The deep state NWO has lost it’s grip on that account. I mean come on…”contrails”, like we’re supposed to believe that. It’s right there in the name “con” trails. Like that will throw us off of “chemtrails” or, more accurately, systemic mind control spraying. Wake up sheeple, this is all too real. There’s no way tens of people are this dumb.
  20. Ts & Ps. I hope she recovers
  21. Links (caution- these indicate that widespread and rampant voter fraud is a repubs wet dream. Proceed at your own peril) https://www.brookings.edu/articles/widespread-election-fraud-claims-by-republicans-dont-match-the-evidence/ https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN2601GY/ https://thefulcrum.us/electoral-reforms/voter-fraud-3287905 I could not find with a simple google a breakdown by party affiliation who exactly is committing most of the exceedingly rare cases of voter fraud. I have some opinions about it though. I’d start by looking closely at the party that actually believes it is a widespread problem.
  22. Watched ep1 last night. The subtitles weren’t a problem. A fair amount of it was in English anyway. More confusing were all the referenced characters who I wasn’t quite sure who they are yet. Going to have to delay going further for now though. I’m on a mission to finish Lost.
  23. Unfortunately it makes complete sense. MAGA and Trump have absolutely nothing else to offer. All they have to rally around are stupid issues like this. They have to manufacture rage to keep their mentally challenged supporters engaged with them. It’s been this way for quite awhile.
  24. I’m not sure other than a bunch of people have to find a place to live and possibly get food (I think they also feed them). I have no idea why a city would basically ask for this added expense. I know a lot of the suburbs and counties surrounding Denver don’t want them and are way less hospitable.
  25. I think they’re learning they can’t afford it. Denver just closed 2 of their 4 migrant shelters. That’s what caused these comments. They are closing another one in a week, leaving only one. Not sure how much of it has to do strictly with $$ or if it’s also because the weather is beginning to warm up a bit.
