    Random comment. Dennis Michael Lynch is a lightweight. He should stick with what he knows best. Seems to be going for fame and fortune these days.

      They shut Sean Hannity down.

      Very powerful people are behind Seth’s death.

      How the Seth Rich investigation is handled by the Trump administration is a harbinger of whether or not there are still enough uncompromised people on the side of justice to turn the ship in America. Most of the elites are thoroughly corrupt, if not by being tied to the Clinton Crime Family then by their own misdeeds in other directions. It’s hard to shine the light on the corruption when you yourself are one of the corrupt.

      Again, more of that Rat prog constant drumbeat of all-quarters attack on Trump.
      Putin wouldn’t negotiate with Obama, the Russians only negotiate when they feel they are being pushed back and that negotiation’s primarily trading space for time.
      Look back at the Cold War, the Russians ‘negotiated’ with Nixon, and Reagan, they knew both were not cowed while thry wiped thr floor with Carter and Clinton.
      I believe Putin made a choice with Trump and may be somewhat regretting it. I’d like to know why Putin didn’t aid Clinton, the Russian intelligence services undoubtedly have dirt on her and slimeball hubby dating back to their Arkansas days and could bring weight to bear on them when necessary.
      Speaking of dirt, I wonder if Obama’s LBGT agenda wasn’t an attempt to get in front of info they may have had on him? One of the details in a US or Russian file on a target is a detailed sexual profile on the subject…and I do mean detailed. Gotta remember, the ‘Soviet’ designation was only a business name, the Russian methods of doing business stay true straight through different leadership styles..

    Great morning here. I got up just as the Sun was coming up. I was picking up mouse bodies after a successful night of hunting by my two cats and I saw something move behind my shop. Out stepped two beautiful young Bucks still in the velvet. They meandered around my back yard within thirty feet of my house. Stunning!

    Remember that huge Volkswagon fine recently levied for Volkwagon’s emissions cheating?

    How they found it – code guys in San Diego and Germany scanned the online forums of the guys who do the actual hands-on fixing of the cars. Taking that knowledge, the code guys scanned firmware images in the car-fixing guys forums and found the code cheats in the code.

    How cool is that? Talk about online hacks and ingenuity. And without the car-fixing guys forums, it could never have been done.

        We’ve been noticing for years – and years and years. Does nothing because we peopns have no power on our own – and Whisenant/people like him know what they can expect. These aren’t just murders, they are murders with messages.

        This answer infuriates me. The Seth Richards’ are selfless heroes who know what can befall them and they blow whistles in spite of all, because it matters.

        We know what Obama did re: surveillance. That put power on the Dems’ side, lots of power.

    Woke up with what feels like pneumonia, or bronchial.

    Worked from 7:30 to 10 or so. The whole crew other than me and chef were one hour late, on Memorial Day Sunday. But once they came in, they rocked. Of course they did, because I trained them to put their minds in the business, and their phones in their cars.

    —

    My last Bossman told all his employees this morning, from what two of his people told me, that he would take me back and let me choose my wage. 10/h is what he paid me for 9 years. I’m worth more than 15. I just replaced three minimum-wage lazy people. (I would say I am worth 25 or so an hour, but these schmucks are worth far less than minimum wage.)

    I painted the interiors and exteriors of all the businesses, remediated basement floods, caulked, grouted (I AM GROUT!!) with epoxy grout the kitchen floor, and was on call for 9 years. Plumbing? Got it.

    Bossman knows what he lost.

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:

    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen

      Is that irony? I don’t know yet if I am clear on the concept.

      Alanis Morissette doesn’t help, either.

          “Have some LSD, little girl! It’s free!”

          I’m not a fan. Not at all.

          Sorry, Stella, but I hate that classic like I hate Springsteen’s (and Manfred Mann’s) Blinded by the Light.

          I know it, like Frankenstein which was named because it was composed of thousands of pieces of magnetic tape, was technically amazing, like that Blinded by the Light or any song by Phish, like Queen, for instance. Or Mr. Bungle. Or Skinny Puppy. Nonsense for it’s own sake. Like Zappa. Like The Beatles. Like Jackson Pollock, throwing paint for no purpose.

          But it was all (if I may indulge) part of a commie plot to replace goodness and beauty with ugliness.

      I read an interview with one of the Steppenwolf members, who gave the genesis of this song.

      They were starving artists until they got their first paycheck, and the first thing this fellow bought was a stereo. He and his wife’s apartment was pretty bare, but the stereo was wonderful, and the two of them would sit on the floor and listen to it.

      That’s what, “Magic Carpet Ride” is about.
