  1. Seeing a lot of people on the left side of this chart in this segment.
  2. Waiting for TexAgs to make an appearance in these messages.
  3. like when they rolled out this plywood mock up of a plane and said it was in production. https://theaviationist.com/2013/02/02/iran-new-stealth-fighter/ Here is an article on the aftermath: https://nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/what-became-irans-qaher-f-313-fake-stealth-fighter-79096
  4. I rented a house built in the 40s in Arlington Virginia and it had old copies of the Washington Post as insulation in the attic. This was not "cellulose insulation" it was newspapers.
  5. This is the part that got me - The guy they were looking for wasn't even in the house they burned down. The dead 14 year old was not a suspect.
  6. So your basic argument is the same as telling people not to wear masks during a pandemic because the government can't tell us to do things that are in the best interest of society as a whole. I can see the irony here. So this is supposed to be funny, right?
  7. That guy is a modern day Elwood Blues
  8. Join the American Socialist White Peoples Party (ASWP pronounced Ass wipe) I pledge allegiance to Donald J Trump, the immortal leader of our race.
  9. Should redo this with how do you understand Maga so well?
  10. Scaramouche, Scaramouche, can you do the fandango?
  11. We booked a long time ago. RIMPAC recently took up any vacancies
  12. “Adding chlorinating liquid” does this mean bleach or something else? If you don’t have a way to test how do you know how much to add? get a FAS-DPD chlorine test kit before anything else. The store can tell you CYA levels and it should stay steady. You’re spinning your wheels until you can test chlorine at home.
  13. "Hey Russian warship, go fuck yourself" It's what the original defenders of Snake Island told the Moscow/Mockba at the start of the war and now the Moscow is at the bottom of the black sea.
  14. So I watched the video and saw he had one arm and then immediately looked through the breach of the launcher and thought. Yeah, I can see how he lost an arm.
  15. I think it can be one of a few different things I posted in my longcat above. You need to investigate them until you find the problem(s) Your filter media is inadequate or filter is borked (has a hole or bad seal) turning on the pump stirs stuff off the bottom that had not been filtered You are killing new algae when the pump comes on and that clouds the water. You need to do the shock/hold/ overnight loss test until it is gone. First I would sweep the bottom with the filter off and see if that stirs up sediment. Second, Get a good test kit and let us know what your Chlorine and CYA levels are first. You mentioned you are getting inconsistent results from Leslie's but you don't share them. Third, when was the last time you did a cleaning and inspection of the filter?
  16. I have no problem that our former first lady was a Eurotrash whore. The only problem I have is that Maga thinks she was classy compared to other former first ladies and made memes about her style being a plus for her.
  17. So I took that picture after going to get some non-ethanol gas. I park in the garage and I smell gasoline so I check under the hood and there is a loose ignition wire so I think, "I had one cylinder not firing" and go inside to let the engine cool. Come back out later and the smell is worse. I look under the car and the gas tank is leaking from the fuel sender, by now it is midnight and so I decide to quickly back it into the driveway out of the puddle of gas and try to tighten the retaining nut. I get under there with gas running down my arm while in my sleeping shorts and no shirt and tap the retaining nut to tighten it and it just falls off and now instead of a slow trickle I have gushing gas. I crawl back out get a low sided bucket and catch about 7 gallons of gas before it gets to a drip. Now I have to get back under there and the damned rubber washer wont stay in place. I had to take the fuel sender completely out, bungled up the gas hard line with a slight bend and all that goes with it. Fit and replaced it about 8 times before I decided I need some petroleum safe RTV gasket maker just to hold the rubber gasket where it goes. I got what I thought was a good seal and then put it back together. Then I had to put the gas back in the tank because I could not leave it in an open container. Probably spent 90 minutes, inhaled enough fumes for a lifetime and stunk up the whole house, kids were up and complaining. Wife was angry I asked if she could hold an extinguisher (would not have done any good if I needed it). Got to be after 3:00. And if this does not make any sense to you because your fuel sending unit bolts up, this is what I had to deal with it's more like a crappy snapple lid friction fit. Hey, I'm alive today, right?
  18. Bump Looking into this now after getting tired of servicing my 25 year old gas mower. Read this article and decided I like the EGO power plus model. Neighbor has had one for a couple of years and he let me test drive it and it did my whole yard with a half a battery (7.5ah). Also decided to get the self-propelled model which bumps the price. This was one of my questions as well and my neighbor's looks great after at least 2 years of using it (he moved in in 2020). Any ideas on the best place to purchase? It looks like Amazon might be the cheapest but wanted to hear if there is something better before I make this large purchase.
  19. Things I was wrong about: 1. There is a statue of him at Ole Miss. It is not Evers, it is James Meredith the first admitted black student at Ole Miss. 2. For some reason I thought he enrolled but that was wrong. He was rejected because of his race in spite of Brown vs Board of Education.
  20. Total Drunkenness Recorded - This could cover a lot of ground, maybe a west campus party or a Texas OU game. Could be a lot of things. I like it. Yeah, I think the point is to prohibit export of Russian goods, don't let Ukrainian grain or Russian oil ship out of the porta of Kaliningrad so only allow what is needed for local consumption. The point is not to starve Kaliningrad.
  21. Getting the dash installed. And saw this Mach 1 at the Cedar Park fireworks on Monday night
  22. See this would get you on a red flag list which is why she opposes red flag lists.
