  1. I concur- but I think that the issue here comes back to "masking". No one should have known who the enemy (monitored person) was talking to in the reports or documentation (If I remember all of the "un-masking" posts from the Mueller investigation and so forth). This is an interesting thought... perhaps the way Tucker was "unmasked" was that the intermediary told him "Hey, they're monitoring us". So, he wasn't truly unmasked until he did so himself on his program.
  2. If you're the type of person who wears a t-shirt when you fly (or flying with a young'n who does), this might be a helpful wardrobe choice.
  3. Yup. Their muffin recipe is delicious.
  4. Sears and Kmart? Seems like Target might be more appropriate.... (I'm so going to hell....)
  5. Standing amidst the produce gathered by underpaid migrants, electronics made in China, and clothing made by prison labor... nothing more 'Merican than that.
  6. not only that, he's from Seattle... I bet he's gone as far as tearin' Trump stickers off the bumpers of cars and he voted for Bernie Sanders for president
  7. A lot of folks online who are good at pointing this kind of stuff out- Dan Price is a guy who does so after making huge personal sacrifices and recalibrations towards equitable pay in his company.
  8. Won't matter until Canada opens back up, tho...
  9. Dad and new wife (mom died, and you don't want pics of anyone mentioned in this post) are in town for 5 days (uninvited, just decided "hey, we're coming out to visit in June/July"). Took two cars to go vacay at a National Park, drove up yesterday and back today. Conversation about balancing "rights" and responsibilities led to the following: "Well, I'm not vaccinated either. I don't trust Bill Gates, Dr Fauci, or our government..." (my dad's wife, midway through a three hour drive home, after being unmasked around my kids for two days) While my wife/kids are all vaccinated, I should probably mention that one of my daughters is immunocompromised (and we had to work closely with her physicians to get her vaxed safely). Today's revelation led to my discovering that my wife really does pick up on some of the colorful swear words that I've used during football season. I understand (cognitively) people's fears/logic/stupidity about not getting vaccinated. What I'm really unhinged about is that this wasn't something that was shared before they arrived or at any point prior to getting in spending time with the kids. At least give me the chance to make a decision about what response (if any) might be needed or taken for my family.
  10. Three straight days of over 100 for the first time in history. Hotter today than NYC, WDC and ATL ever has been... 108 downtown, 113 at the airport. Buckled blacktop on 1-5. Melted power cables in Portland. Cooler temps are coming, though- 76 in Portland and Olympia currently, 86 in Tacoma
  11. Wait- "journalist" who won't cover actual efforts to monitor journalists under former administration now worries that he's being monitored? Shit, like people can't just turn on the TV and get a sense of his ideologies?
  12. The good news is that very few homes here have AC (given the typical climate). And since our area of the country also has folks who make interesting hygiene choices, it's been quite a treat. No humidity, though... took the family on a ferry ride in the evening just to cool off. (OK- back to wives gonna' wife)
  13. That denomination has really fallen on hard times.
  14. It's good to see that they've got a nice circus tent for the clown show.
  15. You mean the electoral college?
  16. During the brief time I lived in Indiana, our networks' versions of this was "It's 10 PM, do you know what time it is?"

    Father's Day 2021

    You're not from Alabama, are you?
  18. Favorite Father's Day Gift- Daughter made a batch of her Habanero Honey; just amazing on about everything (but particularly fried chicken). Makes Chicken and Waffles even more incredible, if that's possible...
