Also overheard:

Boy: “Dad, what’s the best way to calm my wife down when she is angry?”

“Chloroform, son, just a bit of chloroform”

They must really be afraid that Donald Trump is gonna win.

Now there are new “facts” being placed in evidence in the Jan 6th case against Trump.

They just won’t quit, will they?

I mean, at some point, there comes a case for a blanket party with axe handles and such, IYKWIM.

Can’t blame poverty or class or anything else. Stabber’s parent were pretty well off, and she enjoyed european vacations and other luxuries….

Just random black on white violent crime, I guess.

19 year old stabs classmate for no apparent reason. 

“Middle class pays more taxes that Billionaires do”

What a lie.

Percentage wise, this is likely true.

However:

In terms of dollars, Billionaires pay an order (or more) of magnitude more in taxes . The top 50% pay 80% or so of the tax dollars paid….the top 1% pays more than 25% of the total tax dollars that the Federal Government takes in.

Don’t believe me….look it up for yourself.

(Or start here)

How much is a “Fair Share”? Does a multi millionaire (of even higher) use more government than a poor person living in a trailer park?

The ads (again, for how many election cycles have they successfully sold the lie to some people?) claim that the Democrats are the champion of the working people…

“Trump wants to cut taxes just for Billionaires, Kamala will cut taxes for working people” Yet in all of my lifetime, I don’t think they have ever done that. Raised taxes? Yep. Cut them? Nope.

I have no affiliation with this company, except that I own their product.

Highly recommended, especially in today’s Arab/Israeli environment. You might need one sooner rather than later.

“True love is a connection that cannot be defined: For no reason or explanation, you are unequivocally and powerfully attracted to that person. It is when you cannot define how, or why, you that person holds such a special place in your heart”

It’s funny, really, watching the media try to spin things.

No matter how you slice it, Vance looked much better than Walz.

And the moderators (again) failed to be impartial. They just couldn’t help themselves….they “Fact Checked” Vance, they all but led Walz on how he should respond,

At least they were civil.

Vance looked Presidential(ish)….Walz looked like the nice gentleman from next door who is a third vice president of a failing bank from the far side of town. Nice guy, but not a leader.

It’s funny how the media whores are still trying to spin the last presidential election….who won, who got the votes, etc. They keep trying and no-one believes what they say…in fact, their denials, their “Fact Checking”, is becoming a bit more shrill and pro forma, and it appears that even they don’t believe their words. No matter how many times they state that “Donald Trump Lost The Last Election” they just can’t make anyone with more than 2 working neurons believe it. Their continued denials reinforce the belief that he didn’t. And their continued attempts to deny the Hattian issue in Ohio has become comical at this point. ….they are getting ever more vehement about it, much like the last election, as if denying something even more harder will make it go away…..(It won’t).

I doubt that the VP debate changed many minds though. Those who were gonna vote Harris -Walz are not gonna stop making excuses for their candidates, and those voting Trump-Vance are secure in their choice.

I mean, it was one thing when it was a “Terror group” that the Nation-States could deny funding or other connections to…even though everyone knew that it was the Iranians, possibly via the Syrians, that were funding Hezbollah….

But now, when Iran is directly firing missiles against the Nation of Israel, it is an act of war….Nation to Nation.

So what does Israel do?  Attack back in kind? Missiles are, really, an ineffective weapon of war except in special circumstances…otherwise really still just a terror weapon.

Boots on the ground? Hard to do, hard to supply, harder to make effective.

Other methods lead to lots of escalation….Nukes are a bad idea (even if Israel wanted to confirm that they have them (we know they do, but no one can prove it) as they are a major escalation and a messy device to use, not only for the combatants but for the rest of the world as well.

But they can’t just sit and allow more and more Israeli citizens to be killed in unprovoked attacks.

I really think they are trapped, damned if they do, and damned if they don’t.

Were it me, the largest Mosque in Iran would be rubble this same night, along with the Iranian Parliament building.

Then wait. see what happens.

Or Bill Cosby…

One wonders what Sean (Diddy) Combs did to arouse the ire of the folks making sure that his past actions are coming to light 20+ years later….It isn’t like his wild parties were a secret. Nor his womanizing….So why now?

Did he not support the proper cause? Piss off some unknown power broker? Did he not pay the proper Danegeld? Say bad things about Harris? What?

It is suspected that Cosby got the treatment he did because he would not support the Hip-Hop lifestyle and the culture that it engendered…..and he pissed important black people off by saying it was bad , destructive, and needed to be changed…..and he refused to stop saying it when told to shut up.  Apparently that pissed off the powerful black people wanting to sell more music….So they dug up a bunch of women and crucified him.

We all know Weinstein got sideways with the Feminists because he refused to give their cause large sums of cash, and they got a bunch of women to say bad things about him….20 years after he gave them the chance to become starlets.

So one has to ask…..:what did Diddy do? (Or not?).

I was out getting supplies on the way to help a friend, and stopped at the nearest home improvement store to get what I needed.

Now, I generally park pretty far away form the entrance so I get a few extra steps….cause a bit less of me (fat-wise, anyway) is a good thing, right?

What did I spy parked in the next row over?

The details were pretty nicely done.
