Hi Joe, Dead on. Last week I was going out to dinner. I had a 5:30 reservation. The traffic was so bad, I worried about getting there on time. As I sat in traffic, I thought that this was just like two days before X-mas. IMO $5/gal is not stopping the movement of people in the country. Should we try for $7/gal and see what happens? Nothing but crocodile tears. Jerry Baumchen

It's quite simple. He has Jewish roots, and thus the history of Judaism is both nuanced and complex. Sure, there are sections of the Old Testament that call for the troops of Moses to kill all the non-virgin girls and keep the virgin girls for their own use, and that sure sounds like rape, pedophilia and child massacre, but you have to understand the time that that was written in if you expect anyone to be taken seriously. If not - your one dimensional view of that complex history is a joke. But Mohammed was an insane pedophile, because I read a line of the Koran. And you can't possibly understand what the Israelis have been through unless you've lived it. They have a rich history and you have to interpret their actions through the lens of that history - a history of oppression and homelessness, a history of being targeted by a government for extermination. If you had lived that you'd understand a little better. But black people are just plain nuts if they think we should care about their history of oppression. Who cares? Not me! I'm not racist so there's no racism, and if black people think there is, they are just greedy takers. Inner city youths. No fathers. Welfare queens. And we should cancel CRT, because dredging up the history of racism will just foster division.

Too low to meet demand. 3000' down the hill from my office window is Oregon State Hwy 211. It's a view I've had for decades. From my perch I can see no lessening in traffic volume that can be attributed to anything including gas prices. I needed to wait in line to gas up this week. Big 4X4's towing sand buggies were lined up going through the McDonalds double lane drive through next to the gas station. Were it not for the incessant need of some folks to score political points 5 buck gas, cheap by world standards, wouldn't be an issue.

Both quotes from the same post. Outstanding Winsor.

Let me verify what Hominid's status is first. Hominid's post history at DZ can be found through a Search using the term /Hominid/. That will give you a cross section of the material Hominid was working on and posted about. I hope this helps.

That’s a great way to put it. The tail does not wag the dog. The money find does not prove a flight path.

Right, if it’s not going to affect the next election you shouldn’t bother trying to hold the Executive branch to account for egregious misconduct and corruption in public office. You know we can smell the desperation coming off you?

With the cost of traveling all the way from Uruguay, and the cost of tunnel time, putting the money in (coached) skydives will probably get you to your dream a lot faster, and have a better all round preperation with good exposure and skills in freefly, formation skydiving and more..
