    What music do you listen to?

    I've been way into Blondie for a couple of weeks. Also, I've had the album 1996 by Ryuichi Sakamoto on my phone since he died last year. I just heard a little tribute thing about him on the radio at that time and was intrigued. I don't usually listen to that type of music - I believe it is a...

    Fattest bear contest- who knew?

    I’ve been lying about this like crazy. Telling everyone that usually it’s a popularity contest, but this year it’s a death match. Last surviving bear wins. It amuses me.

    Fattest bear contest- who knew?

    We play the brackets at work. One of my favorite coworkers is way into it. My bracket is doing well this year. Thank goodness. I needed some redemption after a rough showing last year. I got Chunk (#32) taking it all. Go Chunk!

    Rant: Private security for FS road closure cannot speak english

    Huh. I apologized to Rotnguns and he was really gracious about it, so him and I are square. And no thanks, I'm not going to google your meme.

    Is there evidence that the people in this anecdote are illegal immigrants who came to the US during the Build Back Better program?

    Rant: Private security for FS road closure cannot speak english

    Agreed. My bad. I'm sorry to the community in general. And to Rotnguns in specific. I think there are far less civilized things on here than saying that someone looks like a jerk in a situation. But I should have done better.

    Rant: Private security for FS road closure cannot speak english

    Maybe I am confused? Your post indicates that they communicated the road closure with perfect clarity. Also, don't please don't assume things about me. You have no idea who I would hire or what I value.

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    Ok, check this out. Is this what you are talking about? This is a paragraph from Breitbart on Monday: On Monday, Routh appeared before United States Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, and defense attorneys for Routh reportedly “entered a not guilty plea” and asked for “a jury trial,” according...

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    Everywhere. Literally every talk radio station I have local access to. I believe I was listening to NPR when the bushes guy was discovered, and it was reported immediately. Syndicated has talked about it a lot - Hannity, Beck, Levin. I even heard it on As It Happens - a Canadian NPR news show...

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    I saw a ton of coverage on the Trump assassination attempts. Both the one where he was shot in the ear and the one where the guy was hiding in the bushes. I heard about both of them immediately and often from a variety of sources. Is there another one that wasn't covered?

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    Things look pretty stable to me. There are local elections every year, state and federal elections every two years, and presidential elections every four years. I'd be alarmed if there was not an election this year I suppose. There is a hurricane season every year. That last storm looked really...

    Your post indicates that they communicated the road closure with perfect clarity. Is their job to explain conditions to you? Or to even know what is going on? Or is their job to close the road?

    Chances are good that if you are ranting on the internet about people just doing their job, then you are the jerk in the situation.
