My family had sushi last evening to celebrate my daughter’s return from a 30 day camp, and an advance on my birthday.  I share a birthday with the nation… Today I will play some Metallica pinball and continue enjoying the day with family.  I will probably do some mechanical work with my daughter on her jeep before the evening… something I enjoy.

Keep talking about cheese… maybe I can try something similar.

Happy birthday big guy, Enjoy.

It’s a myth. Alligators are ambush animals.  Have you have seen or heard a story of an alligator chasing a person, or anything, for that matter on land?? If you can run five yards you’ll get away from the gator  

 

I'm from Ohio and now live in North Carolina. Very few alligators there. I grew up and worked on farms. Had to learn at a young age about the dangers of large (crazy) momma cows and large crazy momma hogs especially when they had babies. 

I wonder if they will be offering the instruction of the zig-zag run to the prisoners? (This is just a joke. In case those left of center take it too seriously}

And I think I would have been really good at this, too.

1. I was a distance swimmer. Gas tank was not an issue. As we used to say, when the going gets tough, the sprinters get out.
2. I could not float. Still can't. So I have gotten very comfortable being under water.
3. My coach was also my lifeguard instructor. He was also the second fastest 200 butterflyer behind Mark Spitz in his day (broke his ribs at the 1972 Oly Trials). During our certification test we had to "save" him. If you did not secure the hold correctly he would attempt to drown you. Even if you did secure the hold correctly he would attempt to drown you, but at least you could survive with the correct hold if you refused to give up.
4. Did I mention he was a world class butterflyer? His shoulders were as wide as a pool lane. The right hold involved maneuvering behind him, getting his shoulder lodged in your armpit, locking your arms around his body, and pulling him in tight to your chest, while he flailed like a panicked drowning person who was also a recently retired world class swimmer.
5. He did not drown me.

I think we're all just a little concerned about your oxygen deprivation and the long-term effects of it. (Just joking)

Which one of y’all said Obama didn’t drop any big bombs on the Middle East …. Just drones.   He dropped over 100,000 bombs totaling over 25,000 tons. 

 

The largest non-nuclear bomb the U.S. used under Obama was the GBU‑43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (“MOAB” or “Mother of All Bombs”), deployed on April 13, 2017 in Afghanistan

---

Key Details

• Bomb Size & Use: The MOAB weighs nearly 22,000 lb and was dropped from a U.S. Air Force MC‑130 aircraft onto an Islamic State–Khorasan cave complex in Nangarhar Province 

• Effectiveness: Reports stated it killed up to 94 ISIS-K fighters, with no clear civilian casualty evidence

---

Bombing in Arab Countries

Even though the MOAB struck in Afghanistan (not an Arab country), Obama’s administration did conduct many heavy airstrikes across Arab-majority nations:

• 2016 alone saw 26,171 bombs dropped across seven Muslim-majority countries, including Arab nations like Syria, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, and Somalia, though none were the MOAB

• The bulk of those munitions — over 24,000 bombs — targeted Iraq and Syria as part of Operation Inherent Resolve

Nice investigative work.

He also did it under the guise of medical treatment. He didn't just jack people off and get away with it. He'd gauge the victim and slowly progress to what he thought he could get away with. The dude was smart, a leading researcher in multiple fields. Got his education from Penn, University of Chicago, and Harvard. Multiple victims said as they were about to say something to him, he'd chime in with a rebuttal. He claimed he had to check their lymph nodes in their groin for infection. Had to check their testicles I'm guessing for masses. Had to get them naked to see their skeletal structure and check their gait. Told them "you're like a thoroughbred horse, we need to make sure you're running on all cylinders and check everything". A lot of them didn't realize they were getting abused until they found out that 1. What he was doing was not medical treatment or valid and 2. After the Michigan state scandal became public.

A lot of the people that complained were convinced later that is wasn't abuse. He tried to get the doctor who finally got him fired's medical license revoked. He had lawyers threaten kids who reported him. There's countless reasons. 

Unfortunately, you would've gotten kicked out of the school, arrested, and probably blacklisted from wrestling for being the macho man had you been in that situation.

At the age of 7 or 8 most people know the difference between right and wrong. If they are in doubt, they ask their mom or dad.

A ref abused in the shower? How is that possible? Refs pretty much always get their own changing room w shower. Even for high school games. 

I have never seen nor heard of a referee showering at a high school or college especially the athlete's showers. Has anyone else ever heard of a referee showering at a school.

We have democrats that are mad all the time. They are peacefully rioting as we speak. We have the liberal media mad all the time stirring up the pot all the time. They are encouraging, inciting these nut jobs that is ok to damage cars, businesses and to shoot at presidential candidates. They have actually had 2 tries so far.

This is not even dog whistle antisemitism. People were saying the same nonsense when Biden was funding Israel. Please stop identifying everything as "oppressed and oppressor." Israel isn't TRYING to oppress Palestine (well, they weren't, now they're just kicking ass in Gaza because they just never stop). 

The Palestinians have been given AMPLE opportunity for peace. They've not once negotiated in good faith. Israel pulled out of in 2005 and their GDP was growing at 4-5% per year(so good economic growth). They got more aid per capita than anywhere in the world. 

I wonder what Palestine would look like if... they just put that money toward the people rather than building on the underground tunnel system and building military bases in schools and hospitals?

 

But they didn't. And sadly, as Oct7th approached, more and more Palestinians were in favor of peace. Israel was building hospitals, but you're goddamn right they still had strong borders and blockades. But if you're going to ask why Israel, the Country that's been attacked since the ENGLISH Mandate, had strict check points and borders, lets ask why Egypt did as well?

 

But in the end, aside from aside from "Nettanyahoos," being a childish retort and similar to Scout/Jimmy's "libtardods" line...what you're really saying is, "The Jews are controlling us." 

 

You really think the US is doing something that's NOT in it's own best interest? And they've been doing this since Carter? C'mon...

You made Some very good points big guy.

Iran was only permitted to be enriching uranium to 3.67 (U235) percent for the production of electricity. They were also limited on the number and type of centrifuges they could operate. Limited to 300Kg of enriched uranium. Iran has ignored all of the restrictions in the hopes of achieving a nuclear bomb.

That is slightly higher than the 3 to 5 percent needed to make electricity. Maybe they are making a bomb or something.

Several national news organizations were reporting it earlier this morning. I think this showing a strong message to Iran. This isn't the don't administration we had in place the last 4 years.

Report they may be refueling in Hawaii. Mentioned they are refueling early because of the cargo they are carrying. The clock is ticking.

I've heard the bunker buster is to bust of a nuclear site that is under 200ft of reinforced concrete.   How would such a bomb take out this site?   How does it physically do it?

You tube has some really good videos with the MOP (GBU-57) in action. There are a good number of videos.  How a Bunker Buster Bomb works. The video Is really good.
