  1. By Herschel’s logic going to Fallon Nevada and training people on and air defense system and getting a mug means I’m a Top Gun pilot and that new movie is about me. and they liked me so much they ordered me a personalized one.
  2. I don't think they will. They had a statement that her district is so perfect for her there may not be anything she can do stupid enough to get voted out of it. We really need to get away from these +15 districts and back to +/- 2 or 3 districts.
  3. The internet never forgets https://archive.ph/ivW52
  4. So this wasn't a howler monkey impersonation but muscle memory from a previous job.
  5. Was she the kind of Sugar Baby that got paid up front like the ones Matt Gaetz paid on Venmo or was she the kind that was happy with a dinner at the Cheesecake Factory? Is this what she was doing instead of going to High School? How old was she at the time? (In the zone or too old for Gaetz?) Maybe she used the money to pay her way through her GED.
  6. Mayra: "You may say that I'm a dreamer..." Seriously how are the R's supporting an immigrant? From her site:

    Maybe a sign from your friend. You can think of him when you re-load and then shoot them. Drink a toast to him after a successful hunt.
  8. Looking for the biggest ROI. That map plus this one: Shows that you probably have to get water from the Mississippi basin around Iowa over to the Colorado River Basin west of Denver. You could possibly take some from the Missouri River basin near Omaha as well. So a pipeline from Iowa through Nebraska and then West of Denver could help the Nevada and SoCal water needs.
  9. Yeah, before this was happening there was the period of time where you would apply but not hear anything back from the employers. I went though this in the 2016 time frame so about 6 years ago. Many employers have systems to make it much easier to get people to apply but they just leave them open without dispositioning them. Those same systems could easily send a response that you did not make it though the first wave of reviews. I only got not interested notifications from 10% of the jobs I did not make the cut on. I even had a couple that I interviewed for but they never updated status after the interview. Filling in surveys on Glass door is the only remedy. In the last year I our org has had candidates ghost the interview, never sign the offer letter or just not show up to the first day of work. May daughter (no pics, you pervs) applied for lifeguard through their official process and never heard back. A friend of hers got a position and said they still need more but apparently you have to call and catch them on the phone to get a job. I can excuse this a little more at that type of org but if they need people why not call the ones that applied?
  10. I was a contractor working on Navy communications systems when the LCS and DD21 (Zumwalt class) programs where in the requirements, design and build phases. There were questions back then about trying to do too much with these platforms. The LCS in particular was designed like a Swiss army knife with all the attachments you rarely used making it harder to do the things you needed more often. Bulky Swiss army knives are shitty to use as a knife. I get the need to retire the older ships but some of the revolutionary work cost more and breaks more than the evolutionary designs. It just seems like saving the revolutionary work for things like propulsion, communications, radars, missiles, and other attack/defense systems has a higher success rate and ROI than the hull and platform changes. Is there a reason why the only nuke powered surface ships we have are CVNs? I know at one time it was because of port restrictions in Japan but is that still an issue? Putting a proven submarine power plant in a new Cruiser or Destroyer platform seems interesting and could be steam or electrically driven. Apparently we have a lack of platforms for long range surface to surface missiles and rely heavily on aircraft based anti-ship missiles while our tier 1 adversaries seem to be going more long range surface to surface anti-ship missiles to negate our aircraft carrier superiority. The Navy needs to focus on the endurance range, anti ship, and anti-sub missions based on what I understand China is doing.
  11. I'd like to see him try and prove it in court, But he might be disbarred for being a loony.
  12. It was one of the ways they were laundering the pardon bribes
  13. Says the guy who is desperate to change the narrative that he is a criminal and traitor to the Constitution.
  14. Last I saw was this woman's case was supposed to be tried in June. No news yet so maybe soon.
  15. Fortunately there was not much fighting but I don't think the Silverback liked having an intruder on his turf. Different video at the CNN link https://www.cnn.com/videos/us/2022/06/13/san-diego-zoo-gorilla-chases-dog-orig-jc.cnn
  16. I'm seeing part of the problem is Trump does not understand what these terms mean: That claim is not supported by the evidence There is no fraud found in quantities to change the outcome That claim is bullshit He just can't understand those legal terms.
  17. We found his uncle dad in Greenville, NC https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/uploads/monthly_2022_06/20220611_160543.mp4.250a4f57237fbd60c173fdf036e349e3.mp4
