    To be clear it’s no slam, I really do think you have the talent.

    Maybe he'll retire gracefully back to the DB Cooper thread. Those guy's could make a wooden Indian scream "Please, no more!".

    You're a pearl of consistency.

    Your first question is a simple misdirection, so no thanks. The answer to your second question is votes. You'll recall that Arizona is a border state. Anything to keep from being tagged a full on progressive woke liberal in the land of Kari Lake seems a decent strategy.

    I think he is merely filling some unfinished gaps near Yuma at the request of Arizona Senator Mark Kelly. Do you have credible information that he's restarted the supply chain and contracted for the full completion of the wall or are you just trolling some more?

    Jakee could argue a B essay into an A without breaking a sweat, no doubt.

    None of your other accomplishments are truly analogous to skydiving. That's largely owing to societal pressures put on skydiving: no one gets told they're crazy for snowboarding, running, scuba or even flying. Nonetheless, I suspect the fact that you are accomplished in other "extreme"sports causes you to put additional and undue pressure on yourself to succeed. Know this: there are one hell of a lot of people who have amassed world records, stood on podiums wearing gold, and did other amazing things in this sport who sucked as students. That's a fact. In the old day's I might have suggested a "relax" dive, you know, just getting out in the breeze, looking around, and pulling at the right altitude. For you, after two rides down, I'd suggest getting enough tunnel time to not only get basic body position right but also turns etc. When I say enough I mean enough that you get in the tunnel with a smile and get out with a smile. Then, if you're still of a mind, consider another jump

    He can't be a Brent sock puppet, he also posts on DB Cooper. That's a third subject which eliminates Brent.

    Or nitwits: A man fumbled with his gun while inside a Georgia Walmart, causing it to discharged and strike four people including himself -- with a single bullet. The man is now recovering from his injuries, WSB-TV reports. Michael Walton, 29, was carrying the gun in his waistband unholstered when it began sliding down his leg, causing him to grab for it. “The gun was in his waistband not holstered and loaded. The gun slipped down his leg, he attempted to grab it, and was somehow manipulating the weapon and discharged the firearm,” said Sgt. Akeem Turnbull with Lovejoy Police. “One of the victims also got hit in the leg. The other one got hit in the back of the leg and the other one got some bruising. All of them were towards the lower portions of the bodies," Turnbull added.

    The same type? As in they’re not right?

    Good point. Please fix it.

    There are extremes to wokeness as there are extremes to everything, including empathy, which is really what wokeness is for most people even if they aren't aware. Given the whirling panorama of absurdities that comprises so much of our view these days, I'm thinking that lathering on a little extra empathy sometimes may not be such a bad thing.

    Thanks Joe, well explained. Now I believe in evolution, too.

    Even more important than the math is that the gunman knows in advance what is about to happen and owns the element of surprise.

    And, in 16 day's it will be Voyager 1's 45th Birthday. What amazing examples of human capacities they are and what amazing science and knowledge they have provided. Just imagine what we might know now if instead of spending trillions to send people into space we would have sent a few probes like those each succeeding year but with the latest technological advances and abilities. We already might know if Europa or Enceladus harbor life, how cool would that be?

    I wrote previously that you could become rich and famous reading depositions for inconsistencies. I absolutely think you have a great eye for that sort of thing. I just don't think forums like this where exactitude and intention can be in conflict and nuance might be in short supply that your talents are best employed.

    You're not grasping the time or scale. In the big scheme of things 10 or 20 years or 10 or 20 billion aren't relevant numbers. The perfect time and best possible price will never be on offer.
  18. JoeWeber
    My point exactly.

    You'll need to take a number and stand patiently in line to be incredulous of Jakee’s contentions. It was I who initially made the analogy, although it was without a gangrenous compound fracture. Nonetheless, the basic point remains intact: preventive medicine, irrespective of the potential ailments, is a good thing.

    The study seems to show that none of the three study drugs, including Ivermectin, have any measurable effect on post infection symptomatology. But don't most users adopt it as a prophylaxis?

    After the last several years I too am skeptical about evolution. Devolution, not so much.

    A woman who was detained in the back of a police car managed to slip out of her handcuffs, grab an AR-15, and shoot and wound two people. "This is something you never think would happen," Grady County Undersheriff Gary Boggers told the BBC. Absolutely no one could have foreseen the possibility. Go Sooners!

    They're a clever bunch, that's for certain. Bo Hines, the 26-year-old Republican nominee for North Carolina’s 13th District: “A lot of people have likened the situation going on right now, is, you know, they say we’re in a banana republic,” Hines said on a radio show. “I think that’s an insult to Banana Republics across the country. I mean, at least the manager of Banana Republic, unlike our president, knows where he is and why he’s there and what he’s doing.” Of course, when it was explained to him he said he was just making a funny. It's a joke, alright.

    That's some real Trump legal team level scrambling there, buddy. You may have a future.

    You don't need to spend thousands to have a doctor reset a broken arm but you'll get on with your future sooner, and be money ahead, if you do.
