Really? So your Tesla short was based on your own proprietary research that showed the majors entering in a more substantial way? Please do share your data lest some here think that statement was unadulterated bullshit.

The whole point of AFF 1 is to get you over the sensory overload. You’re not expected to be perfect. You also wouldn’t have hit the ground if you’d not pulled as you instructor would have pulled and, failing that, you have an AAD. Stop moping around and book in your level 2 jump.

He totally understands. He is certainly not an idiot and I also don't think it's just non-stop trolling. Brent fancies himself as a cat and we as mice. Like all cats, they can be deadly serious but they also like to fuck with the mice now and then. The issue is that the whole climate change is BS, oil is good schtick has become a huge part of his identity. He gets to be a stand out player simply by virtue of never giving an inch. What he needs more than explanation after explanation is something else to do with his life other than be the clever contrarian. I'd give him a packer slot but I've already heard enough. What about you? He's got an MBA, I hear.

I last did CRW in the 80’s... probably the wrong Wendy to comment Hopefully Wendy F will chime back in Wendy P.

Brent who?

I don't know if you've seen this:

And, maybe you’re right. I’ve been wrong in the past and I’ll be wrong in the future, so, the chances of my being wrong right now is pretty high.

Well, maybe you're right. I honestly have no idea.

If you drive your EV with a constant speed you get X miles out of your battery. As soon as you start braking and accelerating you only get x minus a loss. Increasing the milage means you cut down on the loss but you will never get the X miles out of that trip. At least that's how my little brain understands these regenerative systems.

Those videos were people who were already advanced skydivers or wing-walkers. The real question is: Do you want to safely skydive or wing-walk or do you want to wear a dress.

Hi John, Re: Here's my short ass post about privilege. OK, here's mine. I was born in 1940; so my youthful years were the 40's & 50's. Privilege was ( while we did not know it then ) : Free, white & over 21. Some of you may remember that term. As I look back up my family tree, I am the first to ever graduate from college. Looking back at the guys I ran around with in grade school/high school, I am the only one with a college education. There are times when I wonder, 'Why did I do it?' Probably, as I have mentioned, I did not want to end up on the wrong end of a shovel. That means I abhor manual labor. One other major factor is that at 19, I enlisted in the military ( three yrs, 10 months & 24 days; but who's counting? ). The military provided me the maturity to do something in life. The most influential person in my life was my maternal grandmother. She loved reading; and until her dying days, could carry on a decent discussion of the news of the world. From her, I got my love of reading. Additionally, probably because of her is why I post here. While I never was smart enough to get a scholarship, I did get the GI Bill ( every little bit helped ); and once got a $50 scholarship because of my grades in college. Like Bill V, I have been privileged to have been born white and in this country. I do not take these things for granted. I have been fortunate and I am thankful for that. I believe that no matter what job you have, be the best that you can be at it. I ( now ) believe that tuition at a community/junior college should be free. As long as one keeps their grades up. This country still needs good, skilled trades workers. I often think about how I struggled to get the money to keep going to college. For the most part, it was that I simply refused to quit. However, my success also made it so that I could provide my children with their college educations, at no cost to them. I even paid for my son's three years of law school. For this, I am also grateful. I am a strong believer in going as far as you can in education. So far, I have given nearly $100,000 to each of my two grandchildren's college funds. To be able to do this, I am also grateful. Life has been good to me. When you walk up to my front door to ring the doorbell, you will see the photo attached. Jerry Baumchen

I hope you aren’t referring to me. The title of this thread is “President Biden’s critics corner”. My post is a legitimate criticism of Biden’s policies. If you want to start a “President Biden’s fan boy” thread, be my guest.

FIFY BTW I don’t hate Biden, I feel embarrassed for him and our country every time he get up and serves another gaffe sandwich. And I thought Trump was cringeworthy.

F**ks up the joke and blames the service members. Classy guy.

According to the Military base websites in my state - as long as you maintain a passport/card - you're supposed to be fine. This reminds me of the early days of TSA. While in Disaster/Emergency response the TSA was formed and we were required to get a TWIC card (Another fookin badge). We had to get to the airport three hours early then to run the gauntlet of truth in presenting ID's. I would use my TWIC Card and the TSA would ask - where's your photo ID? - don't need it. That's your agency's ID card. No. We need something with a photo - OK your agency didn't issue me a photo when they gave me the TWIC card. They'd call a supervisor. It was a fun game to reciprocate for my having to show up 3 hours early to be in the lemming line. Eventually, they went to having a Photo ID. Now that I think about it - I been pissing folks off for about 50 years. Oh well, no reason to quit now. :)

Nope, that would be as ridiculous as blaming Trump for the pandemic.
