  1. "if you want peach, prepare for war" https://www.redstate.com/stu-in-sd/2020/02/26/us-navy-ship-modernization-dazzlers-hypersonic-weapons-and-more/ I can't wait - maybe someday we can project a hologram fake destroyer to make enemies miss every time.
  2. 3 weeks in Hawaii - you will not regret the extra week. I will say, try to go to Maui, too - unless that was just an accidental omission.... you won't want to miss one of the most spectacular views - like you are on another planet - https://www.tripadvisor.com/AttractionProductReview-g60631-d11447179-Haleakala_Maui_Sunrise_Tour_with_Breakfast_and_Pickup-Kahului_Maui_Hawaii.html#/media/11447179/'-1':p/?mediaIds=-1 Our TWO week trip included all four major islands - Kaui, at least back then - was the most undeveloped. Our package - we flew between islands - about a 15' flight by small jet. I think the island of Kaui - we took a small zodiac inflatable boat ride about the scenic end of the island - scene of several movies - like James Bond, etc. I think Maui? was our mini-sub ride down to a couple of hundred feet.... and yes, the climb up Diamond Head is a LOT OF STEPS- but the scene is amazing on Oahu. The Arizona Memorial - is a magic place you won't want to miss. If you look at the pics of Mt. Haleakala - they don't do the place justice. We drove it ourselves - like most of the time. I've already told the story about my Father-in-law and me driving our rented sedan on the Hana HIghway. I will tell you want not to do: and I did.... Rented a jeep, planned on a private excursion to a private beach that was small enough, and secluded behind trees and a row of houses... just the right size for the two of us. Romantic. sexy. heh heh heh....... Well, I drove the jeep down the gravel road that the article talked about, and only after walking out onto the beach and stomping on it, out onto the beach like the article talked about. Solid sand, We were good. BTW, you lost your 200 dollar deposit if they know you took it out on sand and damaged the brakes etc. It was freaking beautiful, I drove halfway down the beach about a couple of football fields long, and all of a sudden I realized I was driving along and we were staying still. ... we get out and could hardly walk on this stupid stretch of sand. I found out later, from a leftguard at the pool - that there is "new" sand and "old" sand. "Old" sand is..well, old - enough that it is worn rounded in tiny marble like granules. "New" sand is angular - crystaline in shape and is solid. Walking is not easy with old sand. The old sand is like a lot of tiny little marbles. You don't drive through that. and I engaged the four wheel drive..... So, instead of a romantic getaway in the middle of a very warm afternoon, I was jogging up and down the beach a lot of times, getting dropped palm fronds and sticks and rocks... to put under the tires. It took over half hr to get 25 yards up to good sand and solid ground - we drove through somebody's back yard, down their driveway and went and returned our jeep. With my Wife driving - because at the end of our arduous sand trap trek - I got mad and actually was lifting the back of the jeep, bouncing it off the sand to get enough traction to get to the solid ground, I pulled a muscle in my back/shoulder blades that made it hurt to breathe, and got pukey sick and dizzy from heat exhaustion/dehydration. Yeah, that story got told a bijillion times later on........ if Ohio had big beautiful sand beaches - I would have known better.
  3. so the ACLU - defends sanctuary cities...for illegals, etc. but you let cities declare themselves sanctuary cities over another issue in-defiance-of-violating-the-Constitution/Bill of Rights laws? the leftwing ACLU battles those. https://www.theblaze.com/news/aclu-sues-texas-towns-that-declared-themselves-sanctuary-cities-for-unborn-children
  4. btw, when is the American Bar Association going to take a look at some of these lefty judges who keep ruling against Pres Trump every time the left isn't happy? They didn't rule based on our Constitution/Bill of Rights... they ruled in favor of their leftwing bias - the leftwing groups know who to go to. There needs to be come accountability and consequences for continuing to force the Supreme Court to have to overrule again and again because of the political bent of certain activist federal judges. Pres Trump keeps winning and winning.
  5. https://www.theblaze.com/slightly-offensve/kaitlin-bennett-ohio-university VIDEO: Mob of violent leftist students attack conservative activist on Ohio University campus When conservative gun-rights activist Kaitlin Bennett visited Ohio University's campus earlier this month to film a "trivia" video for her YouTube channel, she was met by a violent mob of leftist students. The mob surrounded Bennett and her friend Joel Patrick, shouting obscenities and throwing hot coffee, toilet paper, and other objects at her because of her conservative beliefs.
  6. from the same link above: too much power in too much gov gets you garbage like this: Syphilis studies in Guatemala A USPHS physician who took part in the 1932–1972 Tuskegee program, John Charles Cutler, was in charge of the U.S. government's syphilis experiments in Guatemala, in which in the Central American Republic of Guatemala, Guatemalan prisoners, soldiers, orphaned children, and others were deliberately infected with syphilis and other sexually-transmitted diseases from 1946 to 1948, in order to scientifically study the disease, in a project funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health of the United States in Bethesda, Maryland. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton apologized to the Republic of Guatemala for this program in 2010, in light of the serious ethical lapses in moral judgement which occurred.[19]
  7. actually, the health service is a gigantic bureaucratic many divisioned nightmare of huge money with the usual duplication. a separate division for women? and American INdians? those with aids? adolescents? minorities? a women's division? you do not need all those diviisions, each with bureaucratic staffs, etc etc etc etc etc etc etc. Nothing wrong with trimming down the bureaucracy. that is not called "sabotage" - it's called downsizing the bloat so it can run far more efficient with far less funds. the overlap is asinine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Public_Health_Service Organization Eight out of the eleven operating divisions of the Department of Health and Human Services are designated as part of the Public Health Service:[2] National Institutes of Health Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Indian Health Service Food and Drug Administration Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry Health Resources and Services Administration Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration The three other divisions are designated human services agencies and are not part of the Public Health Service. These are the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Administration for Children and Families, and Administration for Community Living.[2][3] The Assistant Secretary for Health is the senior official in charge of the Public Health Service. The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health contains the following core agencies:[4] National Vaccine Program Office (NVPO) Office of Adolescent Health (OAH) Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP) Office of HIV/AIDS and Infectious Disease Policy (OHAIDP) Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) Office of Minority Health (OMH) Office of Population Affairs (OPA) Office of Research Integrity (ORI) Office of the Surgeon General (OSG) Public Health Service Commissioned Corps Office on Women's Health (OWH) President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition (PCSFN)
  8. suspected cases. Two Ohio college students investigated for coronavirus ... https://www.cleveland.com/.../two-ohio-college-students-investigated-for-coronavirus.html COLUMBUS, Ohio—Two Miami University students who developed flu-like symptoms after returning from China have been isolated as health officials test them for coronavirus, according to the Ohio...
  9. schumer and pelosi...the whole bunch are totally corrupt hacks. I know the gov doesn't want people to panic...but I wouldn't wait til the last week to start being prepared at home, in case something does break out. "low risk" now. but a month from now - national emergency? one illegal could come across, and start infecting truck drivers and truck stops and bus travelers and..... egad.
  10. well, it's gone past joking and comparisons to a bad flu outbreak. water, food storage, masks, start staying home... limit dr office visits if it gets around to happening....medicine...fuel........ https://www.theblaze.com/news/breaking-us-health-officials-issue-urgent-warning-that-a-coronavirus-epidemic-in-america-is-inevitable " Nancy Messonnier, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said that U.S. health officials expect to see a coronavirus epidemic within the United States. "As more and more countries experience community spread, successful containment at our borders becomes harder and harder," Messionner said in Tuesday remarks. She added that two out of three "requirements" for a "pandemic of new disease" have been met and that Americans should begin preparations for a mass spread. "It's not a question of if this will happen, but when this will happen, and how many people in this country will have severe illnesses," she said. "Disruption to everyday life might be severe." "
  11. I had no idea about them being so numerous in Ohio. Sure, Cuyahoga county... but this is so tragic, so sad. and Pres Trump is the only president with the honor to step up and try to stop it. https://www.theblaze.com/op-ed/horowitz-ohio-sanctuary-counties-see-greater-increases-in-drug-deaths-than-non-sanctuaries
  12. Cozumel - we all went to a National? Park beach - it was pretty much enclosed in the distance by a coral reef. Just beautiful safe snorkleing/swimming. Big whatchacallit lizards all around. I guess that is your park. When we took our taxis to that park, the taxi drivers drove way, way too fast. I think they have an autobahn highway right there. If I recall correctly - the other side of the island had dangerous ocean currents. and even back then, I worked hard to know some really relevant sentences to say to the driver...except he already spoke very good English. But he thought it was really funny.
  13. AHA ! THAT HEADLINE ! lol " Trump Demands 2 Liberal Justices Recuse Themselves From His Cases The president ratcheted up a fight with a judicial system he sees as biased against him." ************************************************************* No surprise, I 100% agree with PRes Trump. It isn't so bad that they are lefties, and always vote that way no matter what. But to go public, like Sotodejour did, and accuse the other judges of simply being biased for Pres Trump... that is a new corrupt low. Justices are supposed to decide based on the merits of what our Constitution/Bill of Rights say. But leave it to activist lefty judges to accuse Constitutionalist judges of bias, especially when they have a disdain for the Pres WE ELECTED, and their inability to dominate the highest Court. I don't figure that Roberts will complain that the lefty judges are being criticized about their recent and past comments. and the complaint that Pres Trump goes to the Supreme Court too often? when he has had lefty biased lower federal judges rule against him every move he makes against their personal bias? again and again and again ? come on, now.
  14. Thanks ! In all seriousness, I love talking to Flugels - I never got to play - and asking him about stuff - I get an education that I can't get by watching football, I admit that hugely. That goes for you, too - of course - I look forward to reading it.
  15. no. just seems like a good comeback. btw, you never appraised my mock draft - not even to ridicule it. I was disappointed. lol
  16. he was going to get remarried.... it does not add up at all. Now, why would the president ? allow? all those files to be erased? yep. obaMao. even ObaMao's director at the DHS... had no idea about the deleted records??????? seriously? what the....but Jeh Johnson does explain that they wanted better relations with Muslim communities... ??? https://dailycaller.com/2016/06/30/dhs-sec-no-idea-about-deleted-terrorism-records-at-dhs-video/
  17. oh....my.... the gaffes are adding up and getting worse. Sadly for him... this could be related to back in the day? Biden Resting After Surgery For Second Brain Aneurysm ... https://www.nytimes.com/1988/05/04/us/biden-resting-after-surgery-for-second-brain... May 04, 1988 · Senator Joseph R.

  18. nope, I'm healthy, happy, have a wonderfully happy life, wonderfully happy Wife, decades of successful career history, proudly served in the Air Force... was recruited upon recommendations to join OSI....we have friends all over the place, and kids who adore us, we have two different camping trips to take with friends who are doing the planning - we still camp in a tent..... got to grow my big tomato - etc garden again, plan to plant sunflowers and hay this spring. and Experiment with some specialized whole grains on a small scale...maybe plant a watermelon field to try that out ...we know God is there, but aren't religious...etc etc etc etc. Nearly losing my young life in the woods on our farm in the single digit temps of a snowy day on our farm as a kid... you often ridiculed that too... Happy, Happy, Happy. Crazy as foxes we are. then there's you. you don't, and aren't. I just feel sorry for you - instead of trying to bitch at people because you don't have a life yet, and putting down people who do - you will have a tough time. I actually wish you the best - but at the lonely rate you are going..........
  19. I got to know my friend from India while being a consultant contracted to fix a list of 50 programs around a major company that didn't work, and write a longer list of new ones. One day, his desk was next to mine, he got upset - really quiet, fun nice guy - but he was getting irate at a guy he called about getting a new phone - who said his name was "David". Well, my friend read him the riot act, because he knew the guy on the phone was from India, and told him so - and said why was he using a fake name, and why he didn't work harder to speak English...and anyone from India would know his accent, bad English, and fake name..... I was still LOL when he hung up. I didn't say a word, but I just kept laughing about it.
  20. Seriously - I read that and wonder, too. I suppose Pres Trump didn't know how deep the deep state was. but this extreme dangerous arrogance - that Barr is "an occupying force" ? I wish I could go watch the serious and movie "Shooter" again. The deep state ran the government, protected it's power, and anyone who got in the way, died. sounds familiar now.
  21. ah. now we can guess how it happened, woodpecker learned the "F" word from his gay princess roommate? birdbrains of a feather flock? together?
  22. oh my. Well, the days of us going overseas is past. Back in the day, the gals went to Ireland, Britain and Scotland on a trip - and anymore, they were talking about it one afternoon, and they said they would not do it today. Their teacher group went before 9/11. Just seems that the whole world is getting to be a more dangerous and smaller place all the time.
  23. getting there. All the arrogant, bigoted towards losing their power bureaucrats have to go. Enough of this garbage of them undermining OUR ELECTED PRESIDENT> https://www.waynedupree.com/trump-grenell-top-officials/ Report: Trump’s New Intel Chief Richard Grenell Just Fired Two Top Officials Grenell isn’t wasting any time draining the filthy intel swamp! I look for Christopher Wray to be gone from the FBI eventually. He hasn't fixed anything.
  24. well, he questions everything else anybody brings up, so.... he feels like a superior bird that way, I guess.Haha
