He could cure cancer - it wouldn't matter...


 Again, Clay Bennett and his TDS taking center stage. Did anyone hear anything - anywhere - that somehow China got the upper hand in any negotaitions or discussions of any kind? Aside from some vague commitment to buy some $ 70b worth of Boeing jets, not much else came ot of the Summit, and yet, here's an editorial cartoonist taking a stupid - albeit it stylish - slant on their meeting. Maybe he needs to remember when Biden went over there on Air Force Two with his crackhead son and came back with nothing but his dick in his hand, although I vaguely remember Hunter scored some kinda million buck deal for himself...

Look at the size of this huge crowd outside Braves Field waiting to get in to the stadium to see Red Sox and Phillies in the 1915 World Series. 111 years ago. jeez.
Where's Waldo? You're hard pressed to either find a women or find a guy withouta hat. Different times, fersure...

I had no idea that the Smithsonian even had a dead parrot collection...
a rather substantial one at that...

Analysts and watchdogs warn this is classic fiscal gimmickry - delaying real problems instead of solving them. High earners continue fleeing New York due to taxes and policies, making future shortfalls even worse.
This is textbook socialist budgeting: spend now, gimmick the numbers, and hope someone else pays the bill later. New Yorkers and state taxpayers will ultimately foot the cost when the temporary fixes run out and reality catches up.
The only reason I even bother to pay attention to this guy is because we all know what a colossal failure him and his policies will prove to be. We are sure of it. What's worth watching is if the people there will learn from it, or stay on the same crazy path. I'm betting on the latter, saldy...

Ran across this in that Memories thing they do on Facebook, and it got me reminiscing a bit. Granted this photo is from something like 15 or so years ago up in Jersey when I was on my way to Home Depot and had to stop at the Russian Lady's hot dog truck on Rte. 33 for lunch. If I remember correctly, that's two of the best chili dogs you could imagine and a can for Coke - all for $ 4.50. Perspective's a bitch, ain't it?

Speaking of that 'memories' thing on Facebook, I came across this little memory.. I wrote that eight years ago. Still holds true, and yet I still check in and say my 'Good Morning' thing there every day, same as I do here, although I have virtually nothing to say on there. I save it all for here. I even say so on my wall thing:

Juss' so ya know, That's me on the left with my two Bros. You might note that I have 169 'friends' on there. At one point about ten years ago, I had something like 675 so-called friends. I've been systematically dumping people over the years for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is TDS - that and 8,532 pictures of the grandkids or their dogs. You know what I mean...

Yeah - driverless cars are such a great idea, right? Dozens of self-driving Waymo vehicles have been invading an Atlanta neighborhood and circling a cul-de-sac for hours without any passengers in the back. A seemingly unending stream of Waymos have been rolling through a quiet, dead-end street in Northwest Atlanta in recent weeks, looping around the cul-de-sac — usually early in the morning — and clogging the road when residents tried to stop them.
“I think yesterday morning, we had 50 cars that came through between 6 and 7 [a.m.],” one neighbor, who did not provide her name, told WSB-TV on Thursday.

  4. Muslimes will flock to New York and Mamdani will serve for life. House leader Johnson said we need to stop the mamdanis but he will do nothing.

  5. What did Xi get out of the meeting? Nothing. This was to prevent nuclear war over Iran, get china to invest in America and open china to US cos. When you stop talking is when things go bad very quickly.

  6. some anonymous plinking would take care of the Waymo problem. Just stay back a few feet from the window and pop a couple of 'em. Algorithm fixed in minutes, I bet. Or spike strips. Just gotta keep the neighbor's ring camera off....

  7. This China trip cemented the perception that we are a declining power. Xi called it to our faces and Trump said nothing.
    Since the beginning of times we have had one consistent position towards China.: We will defend Taiwan. Trump all but told China to go ahead an invade Taiwan... I don't see how a free Taiwan can survive beyond the end of Trump's term.
    China polices their social media like crazy and yet they allowed 1000s of memes laughing at Trump and America to circulate during the visit.

    We are seen as weak and in decline. They just don't respect us any more.
