The engine is off of the 340.

It will ship this week.

Then we wait.

For some folks after 20 years it is too much trouble to remember and care enough.

She’s wrong also: The Saudis and other enablers are still alive and untouched.

Sometimes it seems like yesterday.

I won’t forget.

Ever.

At the end of the day, fanatics financed by the House of Saud and their adherents killed my countrymen and attacked the US because of who we were as a people…because of our culture and the freedoms we have. Nothing will ever wash that away. The scales will not be balanced until each of the participants and their enablers are dead and rotting in their graves. My country and our officials may accept them and treat with them…, I won’t, nor will I forgive. Nor will I forget that Pakistan (“Pahkeestahn”) harbored the (supposed) mastermind for years….nor that many Muslims celebrated in the streets when they heard of the attacks. These things I will remember until I die

Anything else I might add will be superfluous.

She didn’t want to be queen. But she stood up when she had to and did her job duty for 70 years.

Class act, she was.

An example of how to be a leader, and Royalty.

Would that Charles can do half as well. If he were smart, he’d abdicate in favor of his son.

Godspeed Elizabeth, I hope you find your love Phillip waiting for you and you can go forward together.

Tens of Thousands Protest Against Czech Government.

The folks in Europe are getting tired of being used. Bad energy policy has led to sky high energy prices, Asinine environmental policies have led to unstable and unreliable electricity supplies.

Pro Ukraine policies have harmed the average Czech citizen’s economic and energy security….high energy prices and lower wages and higher food prices have led to a decline in their standard of living.

Expect more of this. Expect it in France, and England  and Poland  and maybe even Germany. All those governments have made similar mistaken policy decisions. At some point people will be huddling in their cold and dark homes. And it ain’t gonna be pretty for the governments when that happens.

And at some point, a bunch of angry Teutonic folks will be a Bad Thing for Europe. It has happened before.

Great show, Joe! Pitifully small crowd of union workers rock up to support President Biden’s Labor Day speech in Pennsylvania

“A miniscule crowd showed up for one of President Joe Biden’s Labor Day rallies in Pennsylvania Monday.

The crowd, which could be described as being in the dozens, gathered outside of the United Steelworkers of America Local Union 2227 hall in West Mifflin, a town southeast of Pittsburgh. The event was open to members of the union.

While some professional photos from the event concealed just how sparse the crowd was, others showed the paltry number of people who showed up to hear the president’s words.

‘Trump fills stadiums, Biden has to count his security detail as part of his ‘crowd.””

Remember, “more votes than any other president”.

Bullshit.

At least, their leaders are.

Worried about Civil Unrest. 

The people are getting restless…those damned peasants. They are angry over high energy prices, energy insecurity, and rising inflation caused by the first two (most of which is caused by the Green Movements, which the leaders of much of Europe capitulated to years ago, consequences be damned….)

Apparently they are worried that the governments can’t spend enough dollars to keep the peasants happy….and that this will result in (really!!) a series of revolutions.

Interesting, innit?

Damned commie holiday.

I mean, apparently these two folks were able to kill 10 and injure another 15 with KNIVES, a better toll that many “Mass Shootings”.

Perhaps these were high capacity assault knives or something.

Man steals King Air 90 and threatens to crash into Walmart. 

As of posting, he still has 2 hours of fuel left and isn’t over Tupelo Missouri any longer.

It isn’t hard to steal a plane, Starting it and taking off (and controlling it once in the air) can be challenging if you don’t know what you are doing, but none of them are that difficult.

I have a feeling that he won’t land it well, and that the plane will be paid off by insurance. Let us hope he doesn’t hurt anyone else.

Update: he has apparently landed. 

In a field.
