Looks like Iran did the don't. I'm guessing Iran will send up some missiles as the drowns get closer? Hezbollah will send some heat? Guess we'll see.

Looks like a model set?

Typically I don't watch any of the major networks. 5 minutes ago I turned on CBS to watch the Masters. Right out of the gate the very first advertisement was that POS Steven Colbert. This is what the commercial stated. "April Trials Bring Me Smiles" Then fake laughter and applause. This is how tainted these networks have become. Amazing top management would allow that crap. Loosing half their audience.
As soon as our Verizon contract is over I'm ditching. Not throwing my money supporting an agenda.

From my understanding OJ was found civilly liable due to the shoe connection. Something the criminal prosecutors failed to pick up? looking back this case made it to trial extremely fast. Perhaps too fast for sufficient evidence collection?

But the shoes were not found during the criminal case proceedings. Simpson denied wearing the luxury shoes.

Rub-a dub-dub my final drive gets a scrub!

The neighborhood pimp stopped by yesterday. Look at the hat inside, it's proof! Hah!

On the back end of my career most of the desks within my organization had a picture of Barack Obama. I thought it was great, nothing wrong with pride and showing support for your president. I would have loved to have placed a picture of President Trump, I only know of a single person who did. Suppose I worked for Laticia James or Fani Willis. Any doubt what so ever placing a picture of President Trump on a desk in either of these work areas would be a wise choice?
This is the work environment now in place. It's not just limited to this situation it's spread throughout many institutions. This is a real danger and it's dug in deep.

It appears as though the concern in which the left wing media is loosing it's head about would be from the 8 minute to 12 minute mark. If the main stream media choses to ONLY push the word "animals" while deliberately and purposely omitting the context?
I'm still shaking my head at the coverage of the mostly peaceful riots. I watched CNN coverage of riots in Philadelphia (not in the video below). As the riots were going on in downtown area where it would be expected CNN had coverage in a different area. I happened to catch a street sign whit the intersection. I looked the location up on maps. Only a buffoon would stage a protest anywhere near their coverage area. It would have been totally expected for nothing to happen in that area. It was chosen.
I Have heard Trump say at rallies he is not against immigration but against illegal immigration and we need a controlled process. Also stating he is not against EV's or responsible environmental choices but we should have a choice. I shake my head as to why he doesn't soften his words. I'm with you and many others in that I really wish he would but apparently it's just not his style. Sometimes I consider that a plus as to what's a necessary component in our countries leadership. Perhaps at this point in our time foreign and domestic it is exactly the leadership style we need? Or get run over?
I suppose as Bill stated. At this point we all know what were getting. I hope I'm wrong, as for myself I don't think at this point the country is salvageable. The effects that are here today are irreversible and will only multiply with time. There are simply to many institutions pushing the agenda that America is and has always been a bad country. I should be happy I grew up in a time when kids were allowed to be kids. People had choice. Work was rewarded. Life was fun.

Display MoreI get that we have no choice in this election... and it is kind of interesting that this thread started out with this quote in 2016 "Thought I would open up w thread where we all can pontificate on the looming, arguably most important, Presidential Election in our lifetimes. " and 8 years later the same idea is prevalent.
I hear the lesser of two evils, and am just curious if one really believes this... Some quotes from the great orator at different times this year.
Some of these bizarre asides are best seen in full, like this one about Biden at the beach in Trump’s Georgia response to the State of the Union:
“Somebody said he looks great in a bathing suit, right? And you know, when he was in the sand and he was having a hard time lifting his feet through the sand, because you know sand is heavy, they figured three solid ounces per foot, but sand is a little heavy, and he’s sitting in a bathing suit. Look, at 81, do you remember Cary Grant? How good was Cary Grant, right? I don’t think Cary Grant, he was good. I don’t know what happened to movie stars today. We used to have Cary Grant and Clark Gable and all these people. Today we have, I won’t say names, because I don’t need enemies. I don’t need enemies. I got enough enemies. But Cary Grant was, like – Michael Jackson once told me, ‘The most handsome man, Trump, in the world.’ ‘Who?’ ‘Cary Grant.’ Well, we don’t have that any more, but Cary Grant at 81 or 82, going on 100. This guy, he’s 81, going on 100. Cary Grant wouldn’t look too good in a bathing suit, either. And he was pretty good-looking, right?”
Or another Hollywood-related bop, inspired by a rant about Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade’s romantic relationship:
“It’s a magnificent love story, like Gone With the Wind. You know Gone With the Wind, you’re not allowed to watch it any more. You know that, right? It’s politically incorrect to watch Gone With the Wind. They have a list. What were the greatest movies ever made? Well, Gone With the Wind is usually number one or two or three. And then they have another list you’re not allowed to watch any more, Gone With the Wind. You tell me, is our country screwed up?”
His comments especially toward migrants have grown more dehumanizing. He has said they are “poisoning the blood” of the US – a nod at Great Replacement Theory, the far-right conspiracy that the left is orchestrating migration to replace white people. Trump claimed the people coming in were “prisoners, murderers, drug dealers, mental patients and terrorists, the worst they have”. He has repeatedly called migrants “animals”.
“Democrats said please don’t call them ‘animals’. I said, no, they’re not humans, they’re animals,” he said during a speech in Michigan this week.
“In some cases they’re not people, in my opinion,” he said during his March appearance in Ohio. “But I’m not allowed to say that because the radical left says that’s a terrible thing to say. “These are animals, OK, and we have to stop it,” he said.
But if you ask Trump himself, these are just examples that Trump is smart, he says.
“The fake news will say, ‘Oh, he goes from subject to subject.’ No, you have to be very smart to do that. You got to be very smart. You know what it is? It’s called spot-checking. You’re thinking about something when you’re talking about something else, and then you get back to the original. And they go, ‘Holy shit. Did you see what he did?’ It’s called intelligence.”
The lesser of two evils, is still evil... either way... left or right..

I saw that speech in it's entirety. I knew the left was going to run with it. There was no mistaking his point. Zero chance! He was specifically talking about the two illigel immigrants that killed those two girls.
The following was mostly dubbed over as most are a small part is at the 30 second mark. If you could get the full transcript it is unmistakably apparent.

Display MoreIMO from the outside, as I have no actual vote in the US elections.
It's irrelevant the fact he got a loan and paid the loan back, it's about the fact he falsified information to get the loan at preferred rates that would not have otherwise been attainable. Falsifying information to get something is fraud, not matter how you look at it. Whether it's was the average Joe who falsified info to get a loan or a mortgage, or Trump who does it. Fraud is fraud.
On the note of him being gagged. If anyone else ever did the same thing he is doing, publicly outing/shaming family and the judges themselves based on his feelings, they would not just be gagged, they would be incarcerated. He knows exactly what he is doing with those statements and is anticipating his "followers" will step up and take care of business. In a way, he is inciting their actions. He has that great of a hold on people, and he knows it.
There is no denying he is a very powerful person. He knows that and uses that to his advantage.
The Reps need to find someone else they could invest in besides him. Gain the right votes, gain the moderate votes, gain a large part of the independent votes, and it's a majority. The hardliners like the Freedom Caucus needs to be dismantled which then allows the Reps to get stuff done.

Not sure if this car is still on display but the last few NASCAR events I attended at Pocono this Petty car was on display. I haven't been to a NASCAR race in the last 4 or 5 years.

Where is America headed? A few years back I watched a show "The food that built America". The economic model was built upon competition providing a customer a desired product, produced in a cost effective manner at a price the customer was willing to pay. It spurred ingenuity which benefited everyone. From Dave Tomas advertising fresh burgers, then struggling to stay in business due to throwing out unused meat at the end of the day. Hence Wendy's chilli. McDonnald brothers using an assembly line for burgers. Pressure cooking KFC chicken.
Look at this all over the place list of which everyone is going to twist, manipulate, hide, violate, hire under the table (loosing massive tax dollars) increase prices to everyone. Layoffs etc.

This is what innovation in America has become.,
In a financial analysis conducted by the Roosevelt Institute — a nonprofit organization focused on corporate and public power, labor, wages, and the economics of race and gender inequality — concluded that the fast food industry’s “profit margins provide sufficient room to absorb higher wage costs.”
They typically serve food and drinks for immediate consumption either on-site or to-go, with limited or no table service. This includes McDonald’s and Pizza Hut, which announced it anticipates laying off over 1,000 delivery drivers as a result of the new wages.

I had that light come on two years back. In my instance a break bleed with a complete flush fixed the issue. Possibly water in the system, heating up and expanding triggering the light? I do a bleed every 5k using speed bleeders. Simple and the light has never come on since.
Note, if anyone decides to purchase speed bleeders my 2017 came with two different thread sizes depending on what brake caliper the factory installed that particular time.

I taught my grand daughter when she was 6 years old, she is now 13. The Slingshot is hers when I leave this world. She is the only one of 9 grands that cares anything about the Sling.
Most likely I'll get another one along the way. As of now I'm thinking the same direction. I have other grand kids. Some that like the sling, others could care less but this grand daughter is kind, respectful, (to property and people) and actually laughs. Those little things make a difference in life.

Taught granddaughter #2 how to drive a stick shift today. The best kind, attached to a slingshot. Was fun, she did great! Hopefully created a memory! Need to place the curser on the image then click play.

Poor quality, taken from my sunroom at a distance of about 200 feet. He/she was smaller, I guess young. Funny thing there was a squirrel bouncing around above his head. I suppose the squirrel may have never saw an eagle before and didn't recognize the threat? It was his lucky day. The eagle wasn't interested.
