Emerson’s advice was horrible for environmentalists and leave no trace hikers.
Sitting quietly together in front of a fire. Ah! The good old days!
About surviving childhood. It did take several trips to the emergency room and a whole lot of stitches.
Fish and volcano. Which is why we should vote for Scott Brown, not Sununu. (New Hampshire election joke.)
Cat and goose? I see the elves of Lothlorien taking their swan boats down the river.
About that hitchhiker. Unrealistic. You usually only see them at night, when you’re tired of a day of shit, driving home from work when the headlights sweep over them for a brief second or two.
I see nothing wrong with the response to invading America. After all, it works great for North Sentinel Island.
I used the yoga instructor one as part of a devotion last week. We’re out with the volunteer group and members are expected to take turns doing the devotion.
It gets worse – that’s the emergency autopilot from the ’80’s Airplane! spoof movie, thus purportedly a civil air transport mechanism. Though it may have gotten started in one of the services . . .
Plenty of airline pilots are still reservists, so no reason an Air Force clanker airplane driver could not be as well. Don’t know who is going to do the emergency in-flight reinflation procedure in that jet, though…
I had a chance to purchase an M1A1 Thompson SMG for $1,300 back in 1983. For whatever reason (most likely finances at the time) I passed on the opportunity. Arguab
ly the second worst decision I ever made financially. In 1986, the so-called FOPA was passed and the value of the thing decapled(? increased ten fold) overnight.
The Hughes Amendment was added as a poison pill, ignoring it was the right thing to do. It should have struck down by the courts. Taxing a constitutionally protected item may be valid, but a backdoor ban by refusing to accept the tax is not.
I think I have finally figured out Leftroids. They see that successful people have expensive things, so they believe expensive things will make them successful too.
That’s part of it. Some just want the expensive things.
(I have literally seen a Socialist defending not starting a co-op because the capitalists will drive down the price and so they can’t pay high wages. It did not occur to him that if Socialism raises prices to raise wages, it’s not raising wages.)
Regarding, it might be rabies—well, it could be mild nerve agent poisoning or perhaps dehydration or even the flu. Perhaps inject some atropine, drink one quart of water slowly over a period of thirty minutes, and go to the nearest emergency room.
This week I actually had to get a certified copy of her husband’s death certificate for a 100 year old widow to prove her married name since she had her birth certificate but not her marriage license. In Texas…
Yes, but surely you understand that’s different from people 137 years old voting in Colorado Springs which is the sort of nonsense the meme is joking about.
Getting all the utilities, etc., to mom’s name after dad died. She set them up originally when they moved to the area, 1960. Didn’t matter, they were all in dad’s name. Taking dad’s name off the banking accounts were easy in comparison. Just take in the death certificate. Utilities? Do not have a front office as of 2009. Had to call. “Put him on the phone to authorize.” Was on the script of more than one utility. Or why I’m authorized on all of her accounts now. If (she’s 92 this November) it happens, it (should) will be easier. That and it is also electronic now. Or why I made sure she has online accounts.
Mom won’t have a problem with voting. She has a US passport.
Regarding a fine on a driver’s license. Why bother? What are they going to do? Suspend his license? Put him in jail?
That’s literally the argument behind things like the Community Reinventment Act. The Middle Class own homes, so if we make it easier to own a home more people will be Middle Class.
The house in Nebraska had shag carpet in two rooms, plus on one of the staircases. I sailed down those stairs several times because of the smooth soles on my dress shoes (black patent or white patent. 1970s). We had a rug rake, yes. One winter, the shag by the back door froze in the condensate from said door, effectively locking the door by blocking the track (sliding door).

If you thought the UK was around peak stupidity – –

And now they have to dig themselves out from under another round of “White privilege”
Egg size doesn’t seem to be mentioned – but, if a smaller hen produces the same sized egg, isn’t that an indicator of “white superiority”?
