The price they pay for being tree-huggers?
Fire crews and planes wrestled Monday to bring a monster wildfire under control in southwest France before a forecast jump in temperatures complicates the massive firefighting effort against a blaze that has burned an area four times the size of Paris.
Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said the fire had stopped growing, a first glimmer of hope since the inferno forced a staggering 220,000 people to flee in the region around the city of Bordeaux.
But with woodlands still smoldering, the minister cautioned that the battle isn't yet won. “It hasn’t progressed during the night,” Nunez said. “We have to remain very concentrated, very determined, to go at any moment.”
To my knowledge, there is no fire-abatement system or program of any kind in France, Germany, Spain or any other part of Europe. They're all adherents to the green-earth, let Mother Nature do her thing kinda mindset, and now it appears that philosophy is chapping their asses. I seriously believe these climate activists have actually done more harm to the environment than any other signal source or cause. What say you?

Kickin' a friggin' sea lion? This little jerkoff should be thrown to the sharks off the same beach...
What kinda drunken juvenile jerkoff would even consider doing shit like this? The man who kicked a sea lion at the famous La Jolla Cove earlier this week has feds chasing him for the heartless act caught on camera. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration‘s Fisheries Office of Law Enforcement is now investigating the case.
“NOAA Fisheries’ Office of Law Enforcement is investigating reports of a video on social media that shows an interaction between an individual and sea lion, allegedly in La Jolla Cove,” the agency said in a social media post.
The Marine Mammal Protection Act outlines strict penalties for anyone who harasses, injures or kills wild marine mammals, including dolphins, porpoises, whales, seals, sea lions and manatees. Violators may face civil fines reaching up to $11,000, as well as criminal penalties of up to $100,000 and a one-year prison sentence. Maybe they should add a trip to the 'train station' to those penalties...

Is riding a bike really a sport?
American cyclist Sepp Kuss crashed into the netting at the Tour de France and narrowly escaped what could have been a tragic fall down a cliff. As the leader pushing for a Stage 20 victory Saturday during the four kilometers of the course, Kuss misjudged a right-hand bend, his bicycle veered across three lanes and he crashed into the short wall separating road from mountainside. He wound up on the seat of his shorts, with his back up against the netting.
But video shows that the netting stops just inches away from where Kuss’ ride went haywire, meaning he could’ve tumbled down the side of the mountain if the same thing happened just a second or two later.
So, as I see it, if something's dangerous enough that you can kill yourself doing it, then it must be a sport, right? Like mountain climbing and bungie-jumping and Russian roulete are sports. I get it. Never mind...

Do you have gout like I do?
Black cherry concentrate does one thing, and only one thing. It eliminates Uric
Acid in your system - that's all it does. And it works better than any drug any
doctor can prescribe. If you have gout, buy a bottle and take two a day, that's all.
See for yourself if it doesn't work. Trust me - it does. Click the picture.
How's that for a testimonial to it's effectiveness?

They lie to our faces and get away with it...
Surely, that's one of the more famous lies ever told to the American people and, having been proven that he was lying about getting knob-jobs in the West Wing, the fuckin' guy is still deified - quoted as a true sage on many ocassions.
Maybe worst of all, now he is a multi-millionaire living out his life in luxury. The only down-side I can see for him is that he's still married to whatsername...

The Trump Administration slapped a 50% tariff on certain Canada goods in reprisal for what the White House called unfair restrictions on U.S. auto sales in Canada.
It was ordered to go in effect immediately. Sunday the Toronto Blue Jays lost 4-0 to the Chicago White Sox, 6-0 with the tariff.

Authorities in France are having to step in to stop mass opportunistic break-ins. Two huge infernos are ripping towards Bordeaux, with tourists warned to stay away or get out of the region if they’ve already arrived. Yet as hundreds of thousands flee their homes, authorities are having to step in to stop mass opportunistic break-ins.
One man was arrested in Eysines, Gironde on suspicion of burglary. Police said the man was stopped in front of an empty home at around 6.15pm on Saturday. When cops searched his car they found 44 bottles of fine wine stowed away inside.
The suspect – already known to police – was arrested and taken into custody. The arrest comes as French authorities are ready to evacuate the entire city of Bordeaux – “erratic” fire whirlwinds are sending flames ripping towards its nearly one million residents.

It may well be the only redeeming factor in an otherwise gone-to-shit seaside town. If you remember, Seaside is where that unbelievably fucking trashy MTV 'Jersey Shore' show took place. Here's the funniest (actually most fucked up) thing about that show - every single person who 'starred' on that show (if that word is correct) was from Staten Island, New York City.
If that show did anything of value during it's run, nobody noticed. It celebrated bad behaviour and fortified every stereotype about Italian-Americans ever created.
But I digress, yet again. The steak sandwiches at Midway are nothing to write home about. It's the sausage and pepper sandwiches you go there for. Only I can make 'em better. Juss' sayin'...

The head of the New Jersey Republican Party claims that many more non-citizens were illegally registered to vote between 2023 and 2024 than the 6,600 reported last week by Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherrill. GOP Chairwoman Christine Hanlon on Sunday said Sherrill’s figure was just the tip of the iceberg in the emerging scandal. “They’re indicating it’s over 6,000, but I know it’s more than that,” Hanlon told 77 WABC the “Cats Roundtable” program.
The registering of non-citizens occurred under Sherrill’s predecessor, former Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy, through the NJ Commission on Motor Vehicles’ automatic voter enrollment program when residents apply for an ID.

A scam I almost fell for - be careful with those stamps, Skippy...
USPS stamp customers have been targeted by a $1.7 million fraud scheme after millions of fake patriotic postage stamps flooded the country. Officials revealed that two men have been arrested and charged for allegedly running the scheme. John Patrick Best, 55, of Hoschton, Georgia, and Kevin Douglas Padgett, 48, of Phenix City, Alabama, were indicted by a federal grand jury on April 21.
The pair face conspiracy to commit money laundering charges tied to the purchase and distribution of the fake stamps.Best also faces charges of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, along with possession with intent to sell counterfeit postage stamps, according to the Department of Justice. Best and Padgett allegedly began purchasing counterfeit stamps from suppliers in China around January 2024.
My story is, I went online to buy a pack of stamps (for the three envelopes I mail a month)and the google search sent me to Ebay. There, I saw rolls of 100 'Forever Stamps' that I could have bought for under $ 20.00, when the actual retail costs is closer to $ 75.00. I went to the post office instead. Anytime you see a deal like that - something's that just good to be real - rest assured. It ain't real...

Honey - look at that pretty buffalo...
A bison slammed into a vehicle and burst a tire during a drive-by incident in Yellowstone National Park. The encounter was caught on video and posted to TikTok by Tonya Names on Wednesday. She said in the caption she was starting to roll her window up before getting any closer to the SUV in front of them that was moving slowly when huge beast rammed it.
Video of the pissed off beast is here.
