  1. I thanked every police officer I came across. They all replied that they were happy to be there. I was also happy with 60+ age representation.
  2. I've been successful at not seeing or hearing Trump but this bitch seems unavoidable. I also want to know which illegal immigrants are watching the same television programs as a 65 year old white man.
  3. I was there and was also impressed by the turn-out. idiots on the local social board were warning everyone to watch out for agitators so I did that... the baby in the stroller and the veteran in his wheel chair looked especially suspicious. I was also told the protest would be made up of illegals, so I'm wondering which country all these white illegals are coming from.
  4. They are pro-cancel-culture for the out group and anti-cancel-culture for the in group.
  5. Pick a bathroom and put a gold plate on the door that declares it the "Trump Dump."
  6. 4 days with the wife. 3 days I’m on my own.
  7. I need some recent restaurant recommendations. We have reservations at Jaleo, Zatinya, and Old Ebbitt Grill. We like both fine dining and dives. Wife will not eat sushi. We are staying at the convention center. I need lunch spots while my wife is attending her boring conference.
  8. Maybe people will fire back, especially if these clowns aren’t going to show any identification and cover their faces. Seems like self defense to me.
  9. Let’s remember how Trump operates. He doesn’t care if anyone is actually deported. He only cares that people think he is deporting people and that he is doing it in a tough manner. Other people in his orbit probably have greater goals.
  10. A Mercedes van seems like an interesting choice for transport.
  11. Mahi Mahi Tacos and Poke Nachos
  12. We need some sticker designs. I’ll gladly chant it in front of the White House when I’m in DC this July.
  13. When it does come out, we will be seeing lots of pictures of Biden sniffing heads because that is absolutely equivalent.
  14. If you are having a problem with low-blood pressure today, this interview between Juana Summers of NPR and Keven Roberts of the Heritage Foundation is the cure. Transcript and 11 Minute Audio
  15. Wilhoit’s Law really does describe just about everything.
  16. Why bother setting up back channels with the Russians? This seems like an easier way to be a traitor and it has deniability as a component.
  17. I visited the Patel Philippe museum last year. That and my Garmin is all I got.
  18. Half way through our trip. Left Love Field at 8 am and arrived in Kona at 2:45 pm… switched planes in LV. Harry Reid Airport sucks for a layover. After landing in Kona, we grabbed our rental convertible, stopped at Costco, then headed across the island. Dinner was at Pineapples in Hilo - sat at the bar and had a great first night dinner and drinks. The drive from Hilo to our cabin in Volcano was about 30 minutes. The cabin itself was extremely nice and private, located in the forest, and only 10 minutes from the park entrance. A breakfast was stocked in the refrigerator to be heated in the microwave. Lots of fresh fruit and Kona coffee. First morning in the park, Kilauea was issuing a lot of gas and the ranger said all indications were pointing to an eruption. We drove the Crater Rim Drive to the coast, visiting the pullouts and petroglyphs. At the sea arch, a family informed us the eruption had begun. We drove back to the steaming vents parking lot and watched the north vent erupt for about an hour or so. About every 10 minutes there was a fountain followed by substantial lava flow. We went back to our cabin for some rest before heading back into the park for night viewing. The Vocano House area was a mad-house at 5:30, so we parked at the steaming vents and hiked the .5 mile on the Crater Rim trail up to the lodge. The lounge is open seating but a hour and forty-wait that night for a table - no problem because we had great views of the eruption with which to spend our time. By this time there was significant flow from the south vent in addition to the north. The waiter must have had to have dealt with some real assholes that night because when he found us smiling and being nice he comped our cocktails. We hiked back to our car by head lamps, avoiding falling to our deaths off the crater wall. The second day we arrived in the park early and got in about 7 miles of hiking. The views from the Byron Ledge were spectacular. The north vent had shut down but the south vent was a 700 foot fountain. From our vantage point on the ledge, the fountain extended higher than the crater rim. We left the park at 1 pm and drove past the hundreds of cars lined up to get into the park. Back at the cabin we heard the report that the eruption shut down at 1:45… sucked for all the people arriving late. We had great dinner with the locals in the Lava Rock Cafe in Volcano then went back into the park for a drink and one last viewing of the glowing lava field. We repeated our night-time hike for the fun of it.
  19. Russian officials put sirens on top of their vehicles so they can flaunt traffic laws. This will probably come to Washington after the next Republican visit to Moscow.
  20. Rules are for binding the out group.
  21. I wonder if all the Trumpers in the adjacent neighborhood asked for proof of citizenship from the Spanish-speaking workers who spent the day cleaning up all the fallen trees from this morning’s storm. Or perhaps they let it slide because it was their own yards.
  22. Sounds like Communism.
  23. That is exactly it. It is what a men's suit is called in Russian, and I assume, something close in Ukrainian.
