    New Guinea should be off limits as well. They used to eat strangers. Hell they ate Nelson Rockerfeller’s son. That was an expensive meal. But I digress. New Guinea should be off limits not because they are cannibals anymore, well that is only marginally true, but because they will shoot you with AK47s and steal your wallet. The Chinese are about to discover to their chagrin!

    The locals disliked Aussies a little bit out of envy but they REALLY hated Chinese because Chinese ripped off the locals at ‘Trade Stores’ where the Chinese had a monopoly and ground the locals faces into the dirt.

    The joke was that locals would give the Aussies a week to ‘get out of Dodge’ and the Chinese a day to disappear!

    ADVICE:
    Drinking and Driving…

    I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving.
    This might save you the cost and embarrassment of being arrested for DUI.
    As you know, people have been known to have unexpected brushes with the authorities from time to time, often on the way home after a “social session” with family or friends.
    Well, this year, it happened to me. I was out for the evening to a party and had more than several margaritas coupled with a bottle of rather nice red wine. It was held at a great Mexican restaurant. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to know I was slightly over the limit.
    That’s when I did something I’ve never done before…I took a taxi home.
    On the way home there was a police roadblock, but since it was a taxi they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident. These roadblocks can be anywhere and I realized how lucky I was to have chosen to take a taxi.
    The real surprise to me was I had never driven a taxi before. I don’t know where I got it, and now that it’s in my garage I don’t know what to do with it.
    If you want to borrow it, give me a call.

    18 | November 21, 2018 5:43 pm

    @ RIX:

    don’t laugh but that actually happened to some friends of my parents, Chris and Steinie. Steinie ALWAYS had too much to drink, so one night when he was going out Chris told him to take a cab home, they’d pick his car up in the morning. Steinie woke up a 4 am in his own bed to answer a call of nature, looked out the window and saw a cab in the driveway.

    Ooops.

    He drove it behind a strip mall near his house and made an anonymous call to the cab company

    The only time Steinie didn’t drink was when he was piloting his boat. And that’s only because the upteenth time the Coast Guard nailed him they threatened to impound the thing.

    It sounds like he had a bad relationship with alcohol. Still it is amazing that he committed grand theft auto, and had no recollection. It is a great story.

    @ Gateway Pundit
    John Roberts weighs in on Trumps comment about the 9th Circuit.
    According to him judges reside on Olympus and have no bias. Apparently they are supernatural beings.
    Then why is there such a concept as “swing” justice? Shouldn’t they all look at the facts and arrive at the same conclusion? No, they are human beings with their own bias and are governed by them as much as mere mortals.

    Oh, no, they got along quite well, thanks.

    Chris, his wife, died of breast cancer. When she started chemo, it made her really sick. Somewhere they’d heard that weed helped with the nausea, so my mom called me and told me to make myself useful for once in my life and get her some. I got some really good stuff and then taught them how to roll joints and my dad gave them one of his father’s pipes. Steinie, who broke every DUI law in the state just about every day, was totally paranoid about getting busted and insisted drapes be closed, etc. It was a bit of hilarity in what was a sad situation. I kept her supplied until she died and Steinie tried to give me a new car as thanks. Another of their friends who was a cop advised against that as there could be a legal interpretation that would land both our asses in Fed prison.

    Good times.

    I must get a dash cam thingy.

    I need a new car and if I had just not stood on the brakes today there would have been a screaming megadeath incident and my car would have died.

    Wondering what Frys have on sale black Friday. I want a dashcam!

    Note to drivers in Houston. Do NOT fuck with someone who is driving a car worth $600 who has insurance that gets him a rental car for 90 days if his car is broken.

    It was a teenage girl, on the phone…..

    To clarify. I drive a 2002 Lincoln Continental. Big and heavy and worth nothing.

    One day I am NOT going to jump on the brakes because some asshole in a Japanese tin can decided the laws of physics did not apply to him/her

    Um note to someone… This unusual aggression and death wish must have a cause.

    27 | November 21, 2018 7:40 pm

    And, when faced with a situation when you are driving and some asshole deliberately does something stupid in front of you and they are 100% at fault (I mean pulling out of a side street) Is it OK not to brake really hard in order to not hit them?

    They deserved it!!!!!!

    But, who is in the back seat?

    Three kids?

    Tomorrow I do not give a fuck who is in the car that does something stupid in my direct trajectory. They are going down!

    Friday I will brake really hard…

    However, music I have listened to before, I can play it in my head perfectly.

    Also I can replay in my mind everything I ever did or saw from birth.

    But I cannot remember where I live?

    An example, I can replay in my mind the sight of a dead snake on the road in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma.

We’ll pick up a moving truck tomorrow and try to mostly clear out the garage and basement, plus the book shelves. On Thursday and Friday. Clothes and other smaller things over the weekend.

    WUWT has some stuff on her work also. It’s not a joke. If her models are correct, or even close, it occurs to me that we have lived in the best circumstances ever known or likely to be known in human history. In my lifetime, my country was not touched by war, nationwide famine, draught, etc. We’re incredibly wealthy and free. Living into one’s 80s is not unexpected, when my parents were born the life expectancy was in the low 60s, which I’ve already passed. I’ve never gone hungry a day in my life, every night I sleep in a magnificent bed that emperors would have given rubies for and I sleep w/no fear of the night or the morning. I wake up w/in the family I’ve chosen for myself in a home that we’ve created in a country that has allowed us the means to accomplish it w/o worry that it will be confiscated or destroyed via the whim of a monster. I can thank or not any deity I see fit w/o a by-your-leave from anyone. And believe it or not, the sun is shining.

    Happy Thanksgiving

    We only got 3 truck loads, and not even close to full loads, today but OW! Out of shape middle aged people moving crap isn’t a great idea. But we did get some book shelves, a lot of books, and most of the garage and office moved.

    I think we’ll get more moved tomorrow since a lot of what’s in the basement is in tubs. We’re going to feel this for a few days though.
