  1. Would it be better if Election Day was April 15th?
  2. It’s not that difficult, once you learn a little about the process. The first thing you learn is how to sharpen tools. When they are shaving sharp, planes and chisels and saws are amazing tools.
  3. Polls showed that about half of haley’s Iowa voters were democrats and would vote for Biden over Trump.
  4. Ayala got slammed by the 6th place finisher last year. I just can’t see him on top of the podium this year.
  5. The video is of the anti-personnel barrier between Egypt and Gaza. Further south, where the border is between Egypt and Israel, it is only a fence, that Israel built, and both countries cooperate to patrol. It’s said to mainly prevent Africans from crossing into Israel. What’s obvious is Egypt is going to greater effort to prevent Palestinians from entering Egypt than preventing Israelis from entering Egypt.
  6. There’s a pretty good market for those old woodworking tools if they’re the right ones. Stanley and Sargent are two of the most common brands, but there are others, and more rare, higher value. There’s lots of great brands for chisels. Mostly, you need to steel wool them, if needed, to find the brand name. The steel in those old tools is what makes them different. Modern steel is different. The best thing you could do with them is learn how to tune them up and use them. I’ve got a small collection of them and enjoy working with them. Some people like to display them. Watch some youtube videos of Paul Sellers to learn about prepping tools and how to use them to make great stuff. There are sites to help identify the year old planes were made that I’ll point you to if you like.
  7. I agree, you gotta do enough to take the ref out of the equation.
  8. Pittsburgh at Iowa State cancelled.
  9. There’s an idea.
  10. Just didn’t have the feel of the Pitt match. Olejnik had a tough matchup.
  11. Will Doucet win on riding time again?
  12. Haas almost got a takedown.
  13. Alvarez look small for 149 to anyone else?
  14. He did it.
  15. Let’s go Tagen.
  16. LBJ was a civil rights leader. Hahahaha hahahaha
  17. Yes, he made a number of mistakes. He thought Alvarez would be easier to beat than Williams.
  18. Troy was wrestling Camacho and he went sprat.
  19. Great reporting D3.
  20. It’s hard to stall on top unless the guy on bottom is stalling, too.
  21. Doucet is good at minimizing scores. Last year his widest loss was to Hendrickson 12-3; he lost to Parris 5-3.
  22. It had to do with going to the settings and signing out of the old tv provider and into the new one. While I was able to get to everything using the Hulu app, it wouldn’t allow it when I used the easier for me espn app.
  23. One fellow predicted 36-0.
  24. What I meant is that the socialist is a little further down the list of people to kill.
  25. If it’s not chronic it’s only transitory.
