  1. Hi folks, Once again, Dianne Feinstein shows her capabilities: 'Just say aye': Sen. Feinstein appears confused during hearing - POLITICO A female Strom Thurmond? Jerry Baumchen
  2. Hi jakee, Is he even capable of doing so? Jerry Baumchen
  3. Hi Winsor, Well, he is buddies with MBS. And, the Saudi's did take in Idi Amin. Jerry Baumchen
  4. Hi John, Starting to sound like WaterGate 2.0. Jerry Baumchen
  5. Hi Winsor, However, you said something different: See Post #33. Jerry Baumchen
  6. Hi Robert, Interesting. If he is 'fine' then I have some ocean-front property in AZ for sale. It will be interesting to see what they say in the next few days. Jerry Baumchen
  7. Hi John, A drowning man will grab at a straw. Jerry Baumchen
  8. Hi folks, This should get more sales going: Big carmakers unite to build a charging network and reassure reluctant EV buyers : NPR Jerry Baumchen
  9. Hi folks, It seems to me that none of us really like to admit that we can no longer do something that we have always done quite easily. Given that, any thoughts on this: McConnell abruptly stops speaking at press conference : NPR I can still remember how they would push Strom Thurmond, in his wheel chair, onto the Senate floor so he could have someone push his finger to vote. And, let us not forget Dianne Feinstein. Jerry Baumchen
  10. Hi Joe, When, in 1964, I went out to make my first jump, I was dumbfounded to find out that they wore two parachutes. Who wudda thought? Jerry Baumchen
  11. Hi Joe, Now wait just a minute. I've done that twice in downtown Portland & I can prove it can be done without accident or injury. Jerry Baumchen PS) Both times were concentrating on something other than where I was going.
  12. Hi Robert, IMO the feds made a very serious mistake when they did not go in and arrest him & his idiot cohorts when they took over the refuge in southern Oregon. Where is the hell was Ronald Reagan when we needed him? It will be interesting to see what happens when the hospital decides to have the sheriff seize his property to begin to satisfy the judgement. Stay tuned, film at 11, Jerry Baumchen
  13. Hi Phil, At some point in time, this country is going to have a Come to Jesus Moment & realize that the gov't [ at any level ] cannot fix everything. It is not financially feasible. Jerry Baumchen
  14. Hi folks, More cannon fodder: Russia is raising the maximum age at which men can be conscripted from 27 to 30 Ukraine war: Russia expands pool of men eligible for call-up - BBC News Think there will be a run on fake birth certificates? Jerry Baumchen
  15. Hi folks, As we continue to say, 'You cannot fix stupid': the perils of mixing partisan politics with medical advice and health policy. A political gap in excess COVID deaths widened after vaccines arrived : NPR The GOP needs to correct this or there will not be enough of them to win an election. But, then again, . . . Jerry Baumchen
  16. Hi Winsor, Re: Since the reading comprehension here is abysmal, likely clouded by righteous indignation, let me walk you through this. You were doing great until you started with this. Jerry Baumchen
  17. Hi Winsor, First, I am no expert on what happened to Emmett Till. Re: Emmett Till was told in no uncertain terms that flirting with white women in Mississippi was a Bad Career Move. I have never read that. Could you provide some info as to how you concluded that he was told in no uncertain terms before he did what he was killed for? Jerry Baumchen
  18. Hi Sky, Right up there with 'The Good Guy With a Gun' who shits his pants when actually confronted. We had one of those 'Good Guys' at the Clackamas Town Center shooting back in 2012. He cowered out of sight until things were over. Jerry Baumchen
  19. Hi kleggo, Yup, it was the best skydiving magazine ever; and I go back a ways. It was always current and the editorials were even better. Jerry Baumchen
  20. Hi Bill, Re: Anyone watch some of the women's US soccer team at the World Cup "disrespect the flag" by not putting their hand over their heart or singing the national anthem? As a veteran, I always stand at attention & stay silent. That not good enough for you? Last time I checked, we were still a free country; to do what we want to do. Jerry Baumchen
  21. Hi John, Once again, ad infinitum: The average American voter is uninformed & prefers to stay that way. Jerry Baumchen
  22. Hi folks, And, more good news: Idaho jury finds 5 from white nationalist group guilty of criminal conspiracy to riot at Pride event - OPB Jerry Baumchen
  23. Hi folks, Another hooligan gets his just rewards: Proud Boy Tusitala ‘Tiny’ Toese sentenced to 8 years for violence at Portland rallies - OPB Don't drop your soap bar. Jerry Baumchen
