  1. It’s worth remembering that only Florida is in a death struggle with Mickey Mouse. He lives on peacefully in Anaheim.
  2. You should read the story before reacting with righteous indignation defending your friends.
  3. Now there's a question that could be argued in either direction.
  4. Yes. One incident involved a large amount of attempted deception. The other involved a stunt that they had applied for a waiver and been denied but did it anyway. Both clearly knew that what they were doing was wrong.
  5. I wonder if others who have abandoned an aircraft in flight for the entertainment of an audience are worried about this outcome?
  6. Tell her you are thinking of buying an aircraft, after that sinks in the bike will seem like small change.
  7. It's okay to have standards. It only becomes annoying snobbery if you brag about it.
  8. Birds have one vent. Multipurpose.
  9. Easy Peasey . Four cup coffee maker, ($15 at Walmart), 5 heaping teaspoons of Folgers finest robusta. Enjoy. Tim Horton? Never. Hate the place.
  10. I don’t think Lebanon has exported that product to here since the civil war in the late 70s. The red was even better, but scarce.
  11. Whatever his patron supplies.
  12. I get annoyed easily it seems. My next revelation about my lack of good taste is that I drink a lot of strong black coffee. Almost all of it cheap Folgers robusta. And my AAD is an M2 not a sacred CYPRES or even a Vigil!
  13. Ah.....a true "purist" raises his head to correct me on proper whiskey etiquette. This is precisely what I mean by amusingly annoying.
  14. After they began winning awards the marketing department at Diageo went all in on capitalizing on the name by making all sorts of flavoured crap.
  15. We are well aware of the awards won by special editions and selected casks from Gimli. I like many whiskeys but I always remember that none of them actually taste good. They are all poison and they all taste like poison. Some of the better ones merely taste less bad. I find both whiskey snobs and wine snobs to be annoying in a somewhat amusing way.
  16. The world's entire supply of Crown Royal is distilled 2 miles from our DZ. We use the steam coming from the still as a wind indicator sometimes. It is not the world's finest tipple, but it goes down well if you like that sort of drink and it is the official whiskey of Skydive Manitoba. I make it a point not to drink and drive or drink and post. Usually.
  17. Are you at it again? I would have thought a man of your calibre could find something new.
  18. And....she's now back. Sort of. https://apnews.com/article/feinstein-return-absence-senate-48a17d5f7de9af2f4e705f89faefc67a?utm_source=homepage&utm_medium=TopNews&utm_campaign=position_10
  19. You can change your class. You can not change your race. CRT is an obscure academic field that has been given boogeyman status by fearful conservative commentators. And you are now confused enough to say that you think there is a movement to abolish whiteness?
  20. Yes, and Shingrex is over 90% effective in preventing shingles. But even so elderly feeble US Senators can still be vulnerable.
  21. We got our .22 lever actions from the proceeds of selling grams of Lebanese blonde.
  22. I hope not. My wife says a case of shingles was the only thing she had ever seen in her nursing career that caused a patient to beg her to kill him. It can be very nasty.
  23. How very American of you not to see what is between the written lines. Understatement can be hard for bombastic people to see sometimes.
  24. Don't dismiss the pain of shingles and its power to make a person cranky and obstinate.
