Are you drunk posting again? I'm not against the practice, mind you, but that post was just dumb.

Don't bet your solar panels on it. I'm thinking (hoping, projecting, puckering) that Biden might come out of the gate hard. And I'm not thinking a "there you go again" schtick. I'm thinking calling him out for lies and looking for the moderators to do their damn jobs. I'm not talking about the mods here, for Christs sake. Stay chill.

I don't win the argument so I call the cops. Sue me.

But not to some.

The President of the United States of America in Virginia today: “We not gonna lose this, except if they cheat,” Trump falsely claimed about the 2020 campaign, where he trails Joe Biden in national and battleground polling. “That’s the only way we’re gonna lose is if there’s, uh, mischief,” he argued. “And it will have to be on a big scale.” “And we do want a very friendly transition, but we don’t want to be cheated and be stupid and say, ‘oh, let’s transit — we’ll go and we’ll do a transition’ and we know that there were thousands and thousands of ballots that made the difference through cheating,” he said, repeating the debunked conspiracy theories. “We’re not going to stand for it,” he vowed. “We’re not going to stand for it.” If you are not too smart, uninformed and generally disconnected from the world maybe this resonates with you. Otherwise, you are a willing player in the destruction of American Democracy. Your choice.

In my sailing life I have several Brazilian friends. They have a sardonic saying about Brazilian politics: it's not for beginners. Just because something is an apparent reality does not mean it's desired or a virtue. Maybe for Libertarian you, psuedo tough guy slang like "big boy pants" and tit for tat looking glass observations are sufficient to conclude that here and now and today are our only serious concerns. Maybe you are right, I think you are wrong.

Fair enough. You're excused from duty.

Why am I not surprised that in your house Wheel of Fortune takes precedence over news?

There IS a problem with global warming... it stopped in 1998

No, I'm good. Sorry for the PA. -

It's one that he was talking about. Are you a software engineer? -

In fairness to Brent, so I'll keep this short, the Atlantic Hurricane Season has so far been light on major storms. -
Cool. My peeps.

So WTF? You got Boost Mobile for cell service? What about us? The last thing I want to do is cause any problems but I can tell you that Coreece could use a dose of remedial moderation. Also one of the Canadiens and we're not particular.

You can't know about uber-rich legal problems so you are just projecting for obvious reasons. As for money and happiness, life is complicated and not all things can be solved with money. It often seems that only people without it equate it to happiness. In reality it's just a battery that stores opportunity. Taking advantage of those opportunities can definitely make you happy, at least for a while. Then it's back to normal.

So is Q telling us that the probabilities are that Biden/Harris will win? Or is it that Biden is Harris?

Dude, it's tin hat factoring. Are you new?

Then screw those lightweights, I'm going with you: Global warming might be changing the climate. -

So are you agreeing that global warming can affect weather? -
Cameraman caught in drogue bridle, then what?
JoeWeber replied to Binary93's topic in Tandem Skydiving
Chuck, of course they do. Hell, I've been taken out by an Airspeed member. I'm simply thinking that you don't get caught in a drogue bridle unless you are fucking around or making selfish decisions. And with Tandems there should be zero fucking around and zero selfish decisions. -

JoeWeber replied to Binary93's topic in Tandem Skydiving
That was constructive. Real world constructive. A cameraman in a drogue isn't an accident. It's gross negligence. No one who isn't bullet proof in the air and has seriously good decision making skills has any business being anywhere near a tandem. Period. OJOT video is about learning to get the shot not learning how to fly. No one learning to skydive doesn't think they're better than they are. That's why I put it on the DZO. You need the money that bad get a second job but don't put Johnny Jet Shoes out with a Tandem and hope for the best. The final analysis here is prevention works. -

JoeWeber replied to Binary93's topic in Tandem Skydiving
He should wish he worked at a DZ that had skills standards for outside video and then kiss his sorry ass goodbye. -
You're right. Such an inconvenient democracy we once had.

You do recall that John Wayne Gacy was a party clown, right? -
Not my point. I'm proposing that her machine drove the DNC machine and influenced the entire process in her favor. I wasn't a HRC hater until she lost and gave us Trump.

Why else would someone hide out in the Georgia Mountains?
