  1. Hi Sky, For damn sure the GI Bill after WW II did. I suppose Brett now thinks that was a mistake. Jerry Baumchen
  2. Hi Robert, From your link & a typical GOP 'Hey, look over here': “No one cares about Jan. 6 when gas prices are skyrocketing, grocery store shelves are empty, unemployment is skyrocketing, businesses are going bankrupt, our border is being invaded, children are forced to wear masks, vaccine mandates are getting workers fired, and 13 members of our military are murdered by the Taliban and Americans are left stranded in Afghanistan,” Dyer wrote. No one cares about Jan. 6, well I do. Jerry Baumchen
  3. Hi winsor, Re: I welcome any event that puts a stake through his political heart As do I. IMO he is a totally vile, evil person. Nothing would be too bad for him. Re: short of putting Hillary in charge. If it were four yrs ago, I would put her in charge. IMO she has moved on; her days in the limelight are behind. She just wrote a book with Louise Penny, State of Terror 'State of Terror' is a cautionary tale, say Hillary Clinton and Louise Penny : NPR Jerry Baumchen
  4. Hi Keith, 'Change' is factual. 'Improve' is subjective. Jerry Baumchen
  5. Hi Phil, Good post. However, re: 80 percent of Republicans That data point disregards the many, many former R's who have left the party. From what I have read it is mostly suburban women ( one group that heavily supported Trump in 2016 ) who are now registered as independents. IMO the GOP is in a serious decline with no way out of their hole; it has become too deep. Jerry Baumchen
  6. Hi folks, I don't about you, but I found this photo odd: A 6 Jan rioter with a mask on. Guess that he is maybe conflicted. Jerry Baumchen
  7. Hi heels, Re: Wasn't the Pfizer booster approved weeks ago (for over 65 Uh, count me in that group. For you young-un's: Get in line Jerry Baumchen
  8. Hi winsor, Re: I didn't. You responded to my post with this, among other things: Over the course of the pandemic you've had a lot of back and forth about: At this time, I really have no idea who you are referring to. But, keep it up; it is entertaining, to a certain extent. Jerry Baumchen
  9. Hi Seth, PM me for where to send the Finder's Fee. Jerry Baumchen
  10. Hi Seth, Here is one option: HALO Skydiving - SkyDance SkyDiving Jerry Baumchen
  11. Hi folks, Looks like some are trying to export our home-grown craziness. “What People's Rights does is spread really radical ideas about overturning civil rights in the United States . . . This is a broad-based, anti-Democratic and bigoted social movement.” Report: Far-right anti-government group based in Northwest grows significantly - OPB As to what 'significantly' means is debatable. They'll get their 15 minutes of fame & the world will move on. Jerry Baumchen
  12. Hi Winsor, Just for one: Where did I say that masks yes or no? I have said that I do not like wearing a mask. I have also said that I wear one because it is req'd & it is the right thing to do; or words to that effect. Jerry Baumchen
  13. Hi John, Maybe in your area. I made my app't. about 2-3 weeks ago. * My medical provider has converted one of their clinics to just a shot-only clinic. It went far smoother than I expected. Jerry Baumchen * I do not know exactly when I made my app't., but I was out of state last week & I know I made it a fair amount of time before I departed. Ergo, I say; about 2-3 weeks ago.
  14. Hi Will, I could not agree more. Jerry Baumchen
  15. Hi John, Got mine yesterday; arm sore today. And for Yoink: Pfizer for all three jabs. Jerry Baumchen
  16. Hi John, IMO anyone that believes anything coming out of Kevin McCarthy's mouth is a fool. Jerry Baumchen
  17. Hi John, While it is merely my opinion, I am of the belief that one of the reasons Bush 43 was determined to invade Iraq was because of the Iraqi assignation attempt on Bush 41. Some of the suspects reportedly confessed that the Iraqi Intelligence Service (IIS ) was behind the assassination attempt. USDOJ/OIG FBI Labs Report (justice.gov) YMMV, Jerry Baumchen PS) And here is an interesting movie, based upon true events, about about how the Bush 43 admin tried to get the UK Blair admin to support the invasion. In early 2003, GCHQ analyst Katharine Gun obtains a memo detailing a joint United States and British operation to spy on diplomats from several non–permanent United Nations Security Council member states Cameroon, Chile, Bulgaria and Guinea in order to "dig dirt" on them and influence the Security Council into passing a resolution supporting an invasion of Iraq.

  18. Hi Phil, Re: Kurt Schrader I know a little about him since his district is just down the road. His biggest campaign contributors have been Big Pharma. Also, some of his other big contributors have announced that they will no longer support him. He is sort of like our local Joe Manchin. I expect that he will see some effort to oust him in the Spring. Jerry Baumchen
  19. Hi Ken, Please count me as one of the 'few.' Jerry Baumchen
  20. Hi folks, It would appear that the Westchester, NY DA has not forgotten Trump: Trump golf course under criminal investigation (msn.com) I wish them every success. Jerry Baumchen
  21. Hi Phil, Re: Bombing by air will always risk the lives of unintended civilians. I keep having to post this: 2/3's of the deaths from D-Day to the liberation of Paris, were French civilians. IMO no one wants this; however, it is a cost of war. Jerry Baumchen
  22. Hi Keith, Re: There is not a single TSO'd BASE harness with front chest rigs that I am aware of on the market. This is not my statement; it is from another poster. I was merely referring to it. Jerry Baumchen
  23. Hi Sky, Trump, always classy. Jerry Baumchen
  24. Hi Winsor, You have lost your audience. Jerry Baumchen
  25. Hi folks, Re: There is not a single TSO'd BASE harness with front chest rigs that I am aware of on the market. IMO ANY harness that has received TSO-authorization for a chest pack attachment meets the above criteria. The type of main container is up to the user. Back in the day harness with front chest rigs was all we had. Jerry Baumchen
