Hi Winsor, Back in '64, a friend and I went to a movie theater & watched Dr. Strangelove. We were the only two in the theater laughing. Jerry Baumchen

Hi Joe, Re: You're just trotting out the old red meat nonsense. As I continue to say, it is the same old GOP Modus Operandi, 'Hey, look over here.' Anything except to discuss the actual issues. Shameful! Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, Trump likes to say, 'I love the uneducated.' This one is about as dumb as one can get: investigation revealed video posted to a social media account that authorities said showed Bledsoe on top of the wall outside the Capitol And even better: Bledsoe turned to the camera and said, “In the Capitol. This is our house. We pay for this ****. Where’s those pieces of **** at?” Capitol rioter who declared ‘This is our house’ is convicted of Jan. 6 crimes | The Hill Jerry Baumchen PS) I'm sure that he was surprised when he was convicted.

Hi Robert, If he is a smart guy, then you & I are MENSA candidates. Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, As Trump likes to say: 'I love the uneducated.' Walker, who was endorsed by former President Trump early on and went largely unchallenged in the GOP primary, has been beset for months by damaging revelations about his business record and personal life Republicans fret as Walker stumbles in Georgia: ‘He needs help’ | The Hill Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, A good friend from out of state was here recently. This past Sunday we went out to Raph's dz at Eagle Creek to see him. It was closed up completely, not a soul around. That is simply not Ralph. Anyone here know anything about him recently? Jerry Baumchen

Hi Joe, Re: There's the "high cap mags" for starters. And here is another starter: Oregonians will get to vote in November on measure bolstering gun safety, banning high-capacity magazines - OPB I know it will get my vote. Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, As I continue to say, 'The wheels of just may turn slowly, but they do turn.' Or something like that. Looks like Rudy is running out of options: Giuliani ordered to testify in Georgia 2020 election probe | The Hill Jerry Baumchen -
HI ken, But they were not. Jerry Baumchen

Hi Bill, I've had it with the old, 'Hey, look over here,' gambit of the GOP; including you. You know damn well we are talking about gun killings from Columbine to Uvalde; and nothing else. So, quit with the handgun deaths. My neighbor, shooting his wife for having an affair with his best friend, is not the issue here. My 8-yr old granddaughter possibly getting killed while sitting in class is. Jerry Baumchen

Hi Joe, Re: Thank God for Sig Sauer the winner of the US Army's next generation assault weapon contest. And to celebrate they have already released thousands of the civilian version the MCX-SPEAR at $8K a pop. Let the salivating begin. Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, Some people are simply lost in time: concludes that if you are pro-choice, you aren’t Catholic. Portland Archbishop Goes on The Offensive on Abortion (wweek.com) One has to wonder how many Catholics use birth control methods & still consider themselves Catholics. Jerry Baumchen
-
Hi Joe, Re: We don't need them. You don't need them. Only those who live in their own fantasies seem to think that they need them. Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned: Doctor who provided abortion to 10-year-old girl moves to sue attorney general for defamation | The Hill I wish her all the best. Jerry Baumchen
-
Hi Bill, Re: As I watched the politics unfold it seems that neither party was willing to let the other party have a "win." I have long advocated for the elimination of all political parties. Nebraska has done it at the state level. Trying to do it at the national level is probably against the Constitution; the right to associate, free speech, etc. IMO it's a nice dream, but not in reality. Jerry Baumchen

Sorry for the double post. Jerry Baumchen

Hi airdvr, I usually give your posts some credence. Now, I have to wonder if you live in the real world. Take some time, do some homework on the various state laws regarding abortions. When you finish, you just might want to retract that statement. Jerry Baumchen

Hi jmd, I would suggest that you get in touch with Al MacDonald. He is out of the game since he sold Flying High; but, he might be able to help you. If you need his new email, PM me. Jerry Baumchen PS) However, he does spend a fair amount of time in Mexico these days. PPS) Also, consider contacting Rob Warner [ Riggerrob on here ], he has seen/worked on just about everything.

Hi Ken, We've become a real shit-show, haven't we? Jerry Baumchen
-
Hi jmd, Strangely, it looks like the Parachute Labs website is down. However, start [ there are at least 4 of them ] with this video & go from there: packing_manual1.wmv - Bing video And, it would be nice to know more about your rig; year of mfr, pullout, throwout, ripcord, etc. Jerry Baumchen

Hi folks, Since we've been talking about it: Newsom has a unique chance to carve out a role for himself at a time when Democrats are increasingly looking for choices beyond President Biden. Gavin Newsom plants flag on climate, spurring 2024 chatter | The Hill I think it will get crowded by even more people by 2023. Jerry Baumchen

Hi Bill, I often wonder why any foreigners come to this country on vacation. Almost everywhere else is much safer. Thoughts, any of you non-USA'ers? Jerry Baumchen

Hi Bill, Re: pay is a problem My former wife taught 2nd grade for four years. I would argue that it is not the pay. It is the respect. Nobody is on the teacher's side anymore. When 'Johnny Can't Read' is the teacher's fault, we are doomed. Fortunately, she taught both of our kids to read before they were in kindergarten. Jerry Baumchen PS) And, when you have a problem child along with problem parents, no teacher can get him/her to read.

Hi airdvr, A number of lifetimes ago, when I was a young typewriter jockey in hospitals in Uncle Sammie's Air Force, we did a fair amount of them. I never heard of one being done on a 10 yr old. Jerry Baumchen

Hi Joe, Not a bad deal for any guy/gal who signs up for a part-time welding class at the local community college. Is immediate tenure next? When you dumb down a society, everyone suffers. Jerry Baumchen PS) The cause is retirees do not want to pay into any educational system; they don't need it.
