  1. Hi Bill, I hope that the nails his balls to the wall. Jerry Baumchen
  2. Hi Wendy, Re: with no abnormalities that fall in the cracks? About 5 yrs ago, I was at a birthday party for mostly adults. There was a young couple there who had brought their two young daughters. As I got to talking to the young mother, she mentioned that one of her daughters had a birthmark on her face. I had not noticed it. As we talked about it, she alluded it to something like a strike of lightning. To the best of her knowledge, there was no scientific reason why her daughter had the birthmark ( and why Gorbachev had his birthmark ). She said it was a random event of nature. This got me to thinking about this. IMO it is directly in line with your thought above. Sometimes lightning just strikes and we have to live with the results. Jerry Baumchen
  3. Hi Phil, The rest of the world must think we are nuts. Jerry Baumchen
  4. Hi Mark, While I have no cite to provide ( it's been a long time ago ), I do remember that when John Ashcroft was Atty General, he wanted to be able to tell us what we could & could not do in our own bedrooms. John Ashcroft - Wikipedia Jerry Baumchen
  5. Hi Bill, They would hit my kid only once. Jerry Baumchen
  6. Hi folks, At the rate we are going, Ben Crump will soon have more money than he can ever spend: Civil rights attorney Ben Crump told The Star on Sunday that his Florida-based law firm has been retained by the teen’s family.

  7. Hi Sky, From the link: The fact that the police said it was an 'error' is why America is the way it is." This is why. Jerry Baumchen PS) From the article/link, apparently the shooter shot him twice, once after he was on the ground. That is not an 'error.'
  8. Hi Bill, I read the first line & went, 'Oh, WTF now.' I'm sure that this is all probably part of her PHD dissertation in Physics. Jerry Baumchen
  9. Hi Bill, Not that I am any expert in these matters, but I have been giving this some thought. I think that the EV's are a short-term intermediate solution until we develop the next fuel source. I do think it might just be hydrogen; but, who knows what it will be. In your area, Southern California, one can buy a Toyota Mirai; only because there is an infrastructure to fuel it. Toyota Mirai - Wikipedia Jerry Baumchen PS) I recently saw an ad for a Jeep EV. It touted it's off-road capabilities. To overcome the no-plugins-here problem, it has a solar panel that you can setup out in the boonies to charge the car. It takes about 36 hours of good, solid sun to fully charge it; but, it is one option for those that like to go out into the boonies. 2023 Jeep® Wrangler 4xe - Electric 4x4 Hybrid SUV Freedom
  10. Hi Robert, Raymond Shaw? Jerry Baumchen

  12. Hi Rich, A very interesting article. My money says it will backfire on them. From your link: Conservative musicians such as Kid Rock . . . Kid Rock is a musician; hmm, when did that happen? Jerry Baumchen
  13. Hi Bill, Re: “You got to do what’s right, even if you think it’s wrong.” A perfect descriptor of today's GOP. Hey, he ( a Republican ) said it, not me. Jerry Baumchen
  14. Hi Ed, These guys will: Velocity Skydiving Equipment | Infinity Rigs and Skydiving Gear (velocityrigs.com) He has a software program to make any dimensional changes you might want. Jerry Baumchen
  15. Hi Ken, Looks to me like another one crawled out of the woodwork. Yes, he will soon make my list. Jerry Baumchen
  16. Hi Robert, She continues to show just how stupid she is every time she opens her mouth. From your link: Greene also claimed . . . that the U.S. has troops on the ground in Ukraine . . . a small team of Marines has been deployed to the U.S. embassy in Ukraine The USA has Marines at every US Embassy there is. Yes, they are actually on the ground. Jerry Baumchen PS) I went to college with another veteran, US Marine Corps, who spent his entire 3-yr hitch at the US Embassy in Paris. Tough duty having to walk around all of the dog droppings on the sidewalks. Oh, the horror!
  17. Hi Keith, I'm thinking we are looking at it wrongly. If you consider that over half of the electorate is NOT a member of the GOP, then the odds are that most of the people getting killed are the Dems + the Independents => libs. That's a plus for the GOP. Jerry Baumchen
  18. Hi Keith, I was a registered Republican for over 40 yrs; it did not work. Jerry Baumchen
  19. Hi Keith, Good luck with that; ain't going to happen. Jerry Baumchen
  20. Hi Mark, Or as Elmer Gantry said: 'You get more sex out of a church pew than a bar stool.' Just ask Shirley Jones. Jerry Baumchen

  23. Hi Keith, When I was kid, if you went bankrupt, it was a disgrace. Abe resigned in disgrace. Thomas says that it is OK. Times have really changed. Jerry Baumchen PS) See Post #5
