Unsurprisingly, praying is okay for some, but not others. (see above)

"Hi, Joe Mediaowner here. Just wanted to say thank you - thank you... to everyone for all of the drama created by all of the well meaning folks out there. One thing's for sure, when two sides start to argue, we really get to clean up (so to speak). Of course, we didn't have anything to do with fomenting the dissent and differing opinions, but hey, if we can make things clear by explaining why you should be angry and show a little video with that, well you can count on us. We have a saying - 'Bring the drama!' and we'll be bringing the drama to a webpage near you."
Joe M - out.

The only people who talk about and wishcast a civil war are on the right.
Law enforcement is not fomenting a civil war. You can’t just “Ooh, look what you made me do” into a civil war.
It's not Law enforcement here - it's a politically motivated process.
As for hush money, the payoff the threat scenario is played out everyday by wealthy people. What part of the payoff made it illegal, by the way? Think about the way this stripper will live from now on, people will yell obscenties at here and spit on her. Hope if was worth it.

Funny you should mention it, I thought she was one of Kim Jong-un's daughters/wives. They all seem to visit the same trough.

Hmmm... Self deprecating humor, or a lucid remembrance?

Great race yesterday from 3rd place down. Congrats to Fernando for representing the old guys. Where the hell did Aston Martin just come from? Also a solid showing at Williams which was solidly mid pack. Points for Albon and a good finish for the new Yank, Sergeant, who beat all of his rookie competitors. Shaping up to be an interesting season with some potential upsetters in the field. Not sure if anyone has the pace to chase down the Bulls though.
Agreed. I was basically watching everyone except MV, and that worked out pretty well. I found it interesting that Sky did not even interview MV in their post-race show.
Toto basically said they were screwed until a new car can be built, he added that it was their worst race. Sorry about that Toto!

Have another WSJ piece today, with interesting news regarding natural immunity (pasted the beginning of it after the link):
The Lancet medical journal this month published a review of 65 studies that concluded prior infection with Covid—i.e., natural immunity—is at least as protective as two doses of mRNA vaccines. The most surprising news was that the study made the mainstream press.
“Immunity acquired from a Covid infection is as protective as vaccination against severe illness and death, study finds,” NBC reported on Feb. 16. The study found that prior infection offered 78.6% protection against reinfection from the original Wuhan, Alpha or Delta variants at 40 weeks, which slipped to 36.1% against Omicron. Protection against severe illness remained around 90% across all variants after 40 weeks. These results exceed what other studies have found for two and even three mRNA doses.
This comes after nearly three years of public-health officials’ dismissing the same hypothesis. But now that experts at the University of Washington have confirmed it in a leading—and left-leaning—journal, it’s fit to print.

I’m old enough to remember Facebook censoring “misinformation” posts claiming COVID leaked from a lab. How about that?
There is a very complete story on the WSJ today about this. Let me apologize in advance for those of you who do not have a subscription, I'll post the first few lines from the story below:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/covid-origin-china-lab-leak-807b7b0a?mod=hp_lead_pos1
The U.S. Energy Department has concluded that the Covid pandemic most likely arose from a laboratory leak, according to a classified intelligence report recently provided to the White House and key members of Congress.
The shift by the Energy Department, which previously was undecided on how the virus emerged, is noted in an update to a 2021 document by Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines’s office.
The new report highlights how different parts of the intelligence community have arrived at disparate judgments about the pandemic’s origin. The Energy Department now joins the Federal Bureau of Investigation in saying the virus likely spread via a mishap at a Chinese laboratory. Four other agencies, along with a national intelligence panel, still judge that it was likely the result of a natural transmission, and two are undecided.
The Energy Department’s conclusion is the result of new intelligence and is significant because the agency has considerable scientific expertise and oversees a network of U.S. national laboratories, some of which conduct advanced biological research.
The Energy Department made its judgment with “low confidence,” according to people who have read the classified report.
The FBI previously came to the conclusion that the pandemic was likely the result of a lab leak in 2021 with “moderate confidence” and still holds to this view.

Thanks Huggy,
I want to point out the obvious here for those ten-percent who didn't catch the skill level here. Not only did he maneuver to place the balloon and accoutrement in the frame, the shadow of the aircraft is on the side of the balloon as well. Best selfie indeed!

The Ukrainians have mastered goose technology…it’s over like when Vince stuck his arm in the rim!
When I saw the picture, I thought for sure there would be Canadians involved somehow. Maybe it's just my goose hunting upbringing.

Well thank god we have experts like this, who can weigh-in and tell us what's really going on. I wonder if he is an expert on anything else we can count-on, because there are so many things I just don't have an answer for - like chemtrails.

Question, because I am not smart on tanks.
We've seen Russian and Ukrainian tanks repeatedly dumpstered by anti tank weapons throughout this conflict, so is there any reason to think the same won't happen to the abrams and leopards getting sent over there?
Do western tanks have vastly superior countermeasures or something? Just not really seeing how a few dozen western tanks are going to last long out there or honestly make that much of a difference.
We won't be providing M1's with current ceramic (or other fancy) armor. These have to be removed, and an older technology needs to be put in place. Don't know if these will come from our own inventory, or we steal them from the export line (which already lack the fancy and more capable armor). So then, how does one make a comparison?

Not to break the train of documents here, there's this from today. The video (Published by the WH) is subtle, but scary:

Okay, so I realize this isn't the most important thing ever, but you may find amusement with this. Perhaps, we can start to call him "Mr. Natural?"

In light of that would it be better to reduce the DoD budget by half, fire half our force, and invest in efforts like this more so than maintaining the large standing force we conventionally use? Instead of participating in NATO at all why don't we withdrawal all troops from Europe and offer NATO say, $50B/year in subsidy, but 0 manpower or materiel unless it's through FMS or technology sales.
It seems as though your sarcasm has escaped (me).

If "hairdresser at Walmart" didn't signal an immediate greenlight for extramarital butthole pleasures, the dueling foot tattoos are a reliable source of secondary confirmation.
Is that an anchor tattoo on her right foot? Maybe an indication of previous bad choices on her part. LOL
