Why is it that about 85% of the women I see have a smartphone stuck with one hand to the side of their head while driving (poorly)? I mean, I see men doing it too, but generally only about 25%. Yes, I’ve done a fair sampling, no it wasn’t done well nor scientifically….yes, it is fairly accurate. No I won’t describe my methods….

‘Tis a good thing
Finally.
If only they had bothered to examine every statement by Barry or his spokesweasel(s) over the past 8 years as closely as they have to anything Trump has said in the past two days.
It would appear that the Media has spent more man hours checking every presidential statement over the past few days than they have in the previous 8 years.
Odd, that.
No, It isn’t. The press hates Trump and fawned over Barry.
News? Haha…..Propaganda.
I do like hearing that
Not because I was (or am) a fan of TheDonald, but for one even more important reason:
They aren’t saying “President Hillary”.
OutFuckin’Standing
No Spanish. (why weren’t there other languages there….We have immigrants from everywhere). Not anymore. English only.
As I said already….outfuckinstanding.
About time.
I am the son of immigrants. Mexico is in my heritage. My parents and their parents are proud immigrants…..Part of the “Melting Pot”.
When I was in high school, I washed dishes for an italian man in his restaurant after school. He didn’t speak great english,…in fact, he had a really strong italian accent. So did his wife. BUT HE (and she) SPOKE ENGLISH. His kids were as american as any other kids in the town..(Except they spoke Italian as well as english). He told me “When you make another country your home, you should damn well learn the language of your new home….or you are just a visitor”.
Phillipo was always gonna consider Palermo his first home….But The US was his adopted home. He was an immigrant…He assimilated. He wasn’t a citizen, but he was proud of his green card.
He wasn’t a visitor nor an invader, unlike some other folks here now……
So Hillary is dead as a brand….
In a tax filing, the Clinton Global Initiative said it’s firing 22 staffers and closing its offices, a result of the gusher of foreign money that kept the foundation afloat suddenly drying up after Hillary Clinton failed to win the presidency.
It proves what we’ve said all along: The Clinton Foundation was little more than an influence-peddling scheme to enrich the Clintons, and had little if anything to do with “charity,” either overseas or in the U.S. That sound you heard starting in November was checkbooks being snapped shut in offices around the world by people who had hoped their donations would buy access to the next president of the United States.
Read the entire thing. I couldn’t help but smile when reading it.
Bill and Hillary can’t sell any influence anymore….they got nothin’, and no one is willing to pay them for it.
I wonder how much money they made over these past 8 years? And really, I still gotta wonder how the DNC could let them run the show, knowing they were for sale?
Big Hat Tip to Opie for this article.
Happy Birthday
There are other firearms, but his designs are still in use today. Think about that: over a hundred years, and his designs are still relevant.
Had a discussion with my Dad the other day…What would Browning do with modern manufacturing methods….and materials?
In his day, you started with a chunk of steel and carved away anything that didn’t look like a gun. And steel was all he had to work with…..
Today we mold plastics (and metals), surface heat treat use induction heating, have wonderful alloys of steels, aluminum, and exotics such as scandium and titanium….
Who you gonna believe?
Or the reality?
Government claims 2016 “hottest year on record”.
Yet arctic sea ice is greater than any time in the past 40 years….and is at a level reported by explorers in the 1900’s and 1920’s.
Odd, that.
Not a Trump voter, I’d bet
Go walk the beach again. I needed the exercise. Didn’t figure too many folks would be out today.
Put 20 lbs in the pack, some water, and a few trash bags.
Drove to the beach.
Foggy, but not raining. Was quiet and lonely…Just the way I like it.
Solitude.
Walked all the way out, couldn’t cross the stream…was running 2 foot deep and didn’t feel like getting my boots wet. So I turned around, took out a Menards bag, and began walking back, picking up trash as I went.
Was nearly back, when I met the only other person I saw on the beach. Large lady, not good shoes for walking. She asked what Iwas picking up.
“Trash” I said. “I got one bagfull, and will likely get another before I am done walking…I try to take at least one every time I am out here….Keep my park clean and all that”
“What a great thing!” she says. “I wish I had brought a bag!”
I handed her an extra bag. She didn’t take it.
“I don’t want to get my hands dirty” she says…
I looked at her…disgusted….”I bet you voted for Hillary”…..”Always want someone else to do it”
Walked away before I could get myself into trouble.
5 miles, 2 bags of trash. Was a wonderful Sunday.
(oddly, I picked up about 100 shotgun wads this time…almost all 20 gauge)
Uber
If your movements in a city are gonna be limited, I cannot tell you how much easier and more convenient Uber is than taxis….Plus a LOT more cost effective.
Oh, and BTW…if you own any stock in taxicab companies, I’d sell it real quick….
Thanks to the internet and smartphones, Taxis as we think of them are dead….they just don’t know it yet.
How many
She looked Stoned Out of Her Mind.
“Whacked right of her skull” comes to mind….
