Rough night last night. Spud came over with some particularly thujone-laden absinthe and all of the accoutrements thereunto appertaining. He knew I had a hiking date today and he was gleeful at the idea of destroying me in advance.
If it is true that one is the average of one’s five closest friends, I’m fucked.
That said, let’s do birthdays, which include a guy fond of zoos and organs; a guy who was into projection; a guy who was (((accused))); a guy whose birth was an event on the horizon; an OG drug dealer; a guy whose work was nothing to Bragg about; the only Scrooge who mattered; the first link in the chain that finished off Nixon; a pretty excellent woodwind player; half of the greatest songwriting duo in history; proof that shit floats to the top; arguably the best bass player in rock; and the NFLer who carried on the tradition of Mantan Moreland.
And lest we forget, Links.
“Stalled” meaning “It was all bullshit. Oops.”

The Matt Gaetz link: “If all of our witnesses weren’t probably lying, this case would be a slam dunk.”
âThe prosecutionâs star witness â Greenberg, Gaetzâs onetime friend and a disgraced elected tax official â pleaded guilty last year to six federal crimes. Those included a stalking charge for falsely smearing a political rival as a pedophile, identity theft and sex trafficking the same 17-year-old who is the alleged victim in the Gaetz case. A prosecutor in the case has labeled Greenberg a âprolific criminal.ââ
*outright, prolonged laughter*
So what are the odds that a US Attorney offered a reduction in charges in return for making accusations against Gaetz?
A complete and utter certainty?
The segment of the left that still thinks Russia “hacked” the election in 2016 and that Fauci is right about everything will call Gaetz a pedo forever.

Giant douches and turd sandwiches need representation too.
I’m not disputing that. I’m just observing that their last minute shifts in polling seem to follow a distinct pattern.
OK. Polling is hearsay expressed in numbers.
There’s a theory that the media manipulates the polls as a way to induce more ad spending from the candidates.
Funny, I know a couple of progs who always decried Trump’s I presidential demeanor who now excuse Fetterman’s thug like appearance and tuff gai vocabulary.

Re: Arizona — maybe it is staged drama, but I think the Dem candidate is just a nut, personally. She has pretty obvious serious issues and the Team Stupid lady is more than happy to troll the hell out of her. Given every article I read about it mentions Telemundo and Mexican soap stars, I’ll grant that she does seem to want to clinch the Drama Queen belt.

She’s no Mexican soap star.
Hobbs is the Soros-funded Secretary of State that ran Arizonaâs elections. An election that massively failed an audit, I might add.
Ask far as I know, her opponent isnât making that an issue, which puzzles me. Just like I canât figure out why Kelly isnât getting slammed for being a radical gun controller in the Senate race. Why wouldnât Republicans run on election integrity and gun rights?
Itâs the kind of âoversightâ you would expect to see in a one-party state, a uniparty, if you will, where the uniparty just wants certain issues to go away so they can get on with their agenda of keeping the door locked against interlopers and looting the treasury. But that canât be it. Itâs a mystery,
Sorry I missed the absinthe. Because the previous tenants (the folk who squatted and are being sought by the courts for the 18 months rent they owe) absconded with the stove. I spent my afternoon/evening trying (fruitlessly) to find the fitting I need to connect a 3/4″ gas line to a 1/2″ input on our new stove. Local hardware store, semi-local hardware store, and Lowes had none.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful morning.
So absinthe makes the heart grow fonder?
And griping about “Man about the house jobs” — burned some “company rah rah” points and got a pellet smoker. Assembled it on Friday, figured I’d test it out on Saturday and start a pork shoulder smoking this morning for 12 hours. But yesterday went to do the first start checks… and the auger wouldn’t turn. Ended up disassembling most of the control module thinking there was a burr in the channel or something catching… but no, as far as I can tell, the auger motor just doesn’t turn. Yay. Love quality control these days. Emailed the company, we’ll see what they say. Just annoying when you have the whole weekend planned out, let me tell you.
We had a repair guy out Friday for an inoperable ice maker in a brand new fridge. Turns out the fucking thing was installed improperly at the factory.
He just rolled his eyes and said he’s seen it dozens of times lately.
Let’s go Brandon!
In weird tenant stories…
We have some friends who allowed some missionaries to stay in their house rent free while my friends were in Germany for a couple of years. When they came back, the tenants had changed all the doorknobs.
Of course, they also wrecked a bunch of stuff, but who changes all the doorknobs?
Obvious answer: Aunt Clara.
I’d bet Chris Lowe has some really weird tennant stories….
They stole the stove?
Anyway, in many places the gas company will hook up a stove for free, or at least, they did.
That’s the gas policy with which I’m familiar from prior homes, but here the gas co. won’t touch anything inside the house. This wouldn’t even be an issue if it weren’t for the area not having many hardware purveyors. I’m sure a 2 hour round trip to Rochester will solve the issue; I’m just annoyed about having to make the trip for a wee piece of brass.
If you can wait, you could buy it off the internet. Overnight shipping might even be cheaper than two hours of gas.
L0b0t, try an appliance dealer. If there is one locally who deals in used appliances, so much the better. They will at least direct you to the answer, as they deal with crap like this all the time.

Tee hee… If I let my true feelings about the wokeness of my cow orkers and my utter disdain of modernity be known, half of the staff would likely quit in protest. At the risk of jumbling up metaphors, I’m a ideological bull in a china shop trying to walk on eggshells. I just want to provide delicious, fast, consistent, product to every customer. I have no interest in the private lives of the staff.
I’m sure like punctuality or other work ethics — that’s now White Supremacy and Systemic Racism somehow. Or the Patriarchy.
Funny… Gov. Kathy Accident is also refusing to debate her Republican opponent. I can’t imagine why.

There is a story of dubious veracity where in olden times religious authorities banned dancing but the tradition was kept up, albeit only with the part of the body that can’t easily be seen through a window.
So torso-bound but foot-loose? I think I saw a dramatic reenactment of that story…
We dodged a bullet. Youngest Patzer had 8 years of dance lessons (ballet, tap, jazz) here in Bergen County. One of his grammar school classmates was the son of the owner of the big Irish dance outfit, who wanted my son to join their troupe. He was not interested, thank $deity.
There is a world of Irish dance?
Yes.
A local Irish dance troup holds an annual fundraiser at a local Irish pub the Sunday before St. Patrick’s Day. The fundraiser is to offset the costs for them to go to some sort of competition, I think in Ireland.

Pierce, that’s a butt plug. You don’t suck it.
Friend of mine – just recently boosted for the fifth time – came down with Covid for the firs time. As did his recently boosted mom and dad.
My parents – who also dodged COVID – came down with it. My mom, I believe, was recently “boosted” while my dad decided to forgo.
And my neighbors – who I play cards with – also came down with COVID two weeks ago. They had also dodged it until now. Both had “vaccinations” that were up to date.
I’m wondering why – law of averages? The actual booster? Science will apparently never be able to tell us đ
Worst vaccine ever.
Tests that produce lots of false positives?
The virus has mutated since the original strain. It shouldn’t be a surprise it’s not so effective anymore.

“While attending a ceremony relocating Zola’s ashes to the PanthĂŠon on 4 June 1908, Dreyfus was wounded in the arm by a gunshot from a right-wing journalist, Louis GrĂŠgori [fr], who was trying to assassinate him. GrĂŠgori was acquitted by the Parisian court which accepted his defense that he had not meant to kill Dreyfus, meaning merely to graze him.”
Fucking bizarre. Staffing shortages because they pay less than a high school job, and then government is going to cap the number of flights, which will harm business travel and the tourism industry.
What’s the Dutch government going to do, shoot down the excess planes?
I’m sure they have many types of leverage, like removing licensing for the airlines or having cops board the planes once they land. It’s such a strange, ham-handed decision. Noise pollution?
A government run tourist industry, where a bureaucrat decides who goes where and when. Like socialized medicine.
No one goes to Shithole airport anymore, it’s too crowded
That high school job is probably unionized up the wazoo such that no HS age person can get one.
It may have been a great airport at one time but it’s been a line filled mess for a while. It’s both over capacity and a dated design. Last time I flew there, the EU entry lines were backed up into the corridor so badly that they had staff walking down calling out departure times for connecting flights and escort you to cut into it in a shorter line near the front.

“A Loudoun County school counselor last month pleaded guilty to having sex with a transgender student for years. The counselor gave him a pass to get out of class any time, he underwent the “physical & hormonal transition” process, & they engaged oral sex.
The abuse was reported in May 2021, the same month of the notorious bathroom rape by a skirt-wearing teen, which played a role in the governor’s race. But the counselor was not arrested until November 3, the day after the election.
This adds to the spotlight on school counselors after the head of the National Association of School Psychologists’ LGBTQI2-S Committee was found to be involved with a group that said it would provide money and new homes to gay students who didn’t like their parents”

“Amy Cannava is chair of [National Association of School Psychologists] LGBTQI2-S Committee and has provided training to other psychologists on LGBT issues. On NASPâs website, she suggested that school administrators should shield counselors who were in violation of a pending Virginia state policy saying that schools should not hide a studentâs gender transition from parents.
Cannava described the draft policy, which permits schools to call transgender students by new names and pronouns, but only with permission from parents, âhorrific.â
On a podcast called âOut, What Now?â Cannava said âI recognize that parental consent is a big deal, but when Iâm doing anything LGBT, I donât worry about that. ⌠Letâs be honest, itâs an electronic permission slip. You type in a parentâs name and Iâm like âoh that parent signed consent.â Thereâs no actual signature.â
âYou have to sometimes break rules to do good for kids,â she said.
Cannava, who said she is âqueerâ and attracted to âtrans-masculine non-binary folx,â said âI had a record day where five kids came out to me. I said âthis is amazingâ ⌠Most of the time itâs like, âI think Iâm trans,â which really means âI am trans.ââ
She has the backing of the association.”

This is not going to end well and when that happens the left will just use it as justification to dig in deeper.

Recently returned from Branson, MO.
Ride the coasters at Silver Dollar City.
Wildfire: premise is that some dude invented a new fuel (âWildfireâ), and you are on the test run. Rode this twice in a row. Fun, but pretty standard and it seemed shorter than the others.
The Giant Barnswing: not a roller coaster, but you get a similar sensation. You fall dozens of feet forward, swing up, then fall dozens of feet backward.
Outlaw Run: premise is that you are chasing outlaws. Waiting area plays a medley from the scores of âThe Big Countryâ and âHow the West Was Wonâ. A hybrid wooden roller coaster. This is my favorite coaster of any I have ever been on in my lifetime. A âwoodenâ roller coaster with loops. At one point you start to barrel-roll, but the track instead just runs sideways for a few yards. Near the end is a very tight double cork screw. I only got to ride it once this time, because the group wished to move on to something else. :/
Powder Keg: premise is that you are in a carriage house when someone accidentally sets some explosives on fire. The outside decor has a track that bends straight up with mangled rails at t he end, some mangled rails stuck in the roof, and roller coaster carts also embedded in the roof. This was closed when we first got there, but opened up a few minutes later after they âworked some kinks outâ of one of the carts. Rode this thrice in a row. The initial acceleration is intense, followed by a straight drop. Loops and whatnot. Very fun.
Time Traveler: premise is that an inventor created a time machine. The carts swivel around as you move along the track. At the end, you face backward from how you started. Steampunk decor (I nearly purchased a top hat with goggles and gears on it in the gift shop outside the ride). This wasnât as scary (âfunâ) as it appears from watching it go. The swiveling makes it difficult to tell where you are on the tracksââam I going up or down, nowâ? The second ride was better, since the first drink was backward.
Thunderation: premise: itâs a rollercoaster done up to look like a train. It is a much milder coasterâthere are no straight drops down. This was an unpleasant ride; it needed some bolts tightened, or something, because I felt beat up afterward.
Fire in the Hole: premise is that you are part of a fire brigade trying to stop the Ozark KKKâŚer, âBaldknobbersâ, who are engaged in acts of mass arson. A Dark ride with a lot of scenarios of buildings on fire and people trying to escape houses. Has exactly one drop, near the end, when your fire brigade wagon plays chicken with a train on a bridge, and veers off to fall in the river with a big splash.
For the first time since I first visited SDC, I did not ride this coaster.
I love Fire in the Hole.
I do, too, but I was eager to get to Outlaw Run, and was being petulant that the group wanted to wait a whole ten minutes to ride this. I wandered around the âfiremanâs cemeteryâ instead.
The question is, are the fish biting this morning?
What ranks Outlaw Run ahead of Powder Keg for me is that, with the former, there are no handholds. They buckle you in tightly (including braces around your shins) but there is nothing to hold on to while you are free falling and looping and spiraling.

A pair of flights carrying migrants from Texas to Marthaâs Vineyard last month, orchestrated by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, may have exceeded the original scope of the stateâs plan to transport undocumented individuals, according to records obtained by CNN.

At Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport, labor shortages continue to fuel unprecedented chaos that began in the spring, prompting many travelers and aviation insiders to wonder what has happened to an airport long considered one of the most efficient and highly regarded in Europe — if not the world.
“Began in the spring”…. hmm… Lil Rona Panic fall-out? Nahh….
It’s a shame. I liked Schiphol.
In survey after survey, Shapiro leads by double digits and is outspending the GOP nominee by a 60 to 1 margin on the airwaves, potentially creating a significant drag on Ozâs chances.
I’ll bet some of that Shapiro money is coming from the GOP Establishment.
60 to 1?! That’s… something else.
Mastriano’s campaign is on a shoe-string budget. Based on this article, just the campaigns themselves aren’t 60-1, but I think based on those numbers, once you include spending from PACs and such, I can see 60-1.
Full disclosure: I have given some money to Mastriano’s campaign. I’m one of those small donors mentioned in the article.
The Republican Governor’s Association made it clear when Mastriano won the primary that they would give him no assistance. The RNC hinted the same. I think if he pulled a Don Bolduc (i.e. flip-flopped on the 2020 election), Mastriano would suddenly get support from those groups. It worked for Bolduc. But, Mastriano is sticking to his guns.
Mastriano is campaigning. He’s got a bus and is constantly touring Pennsylvania. He has a new campaign event just about every day. He livestreams them on facebook, which is probably the best he can do to get his name and message out to people. Though, I suspect those people are already interested in him.
And I’m not doxing myself. The article includes a link to search the database of Mastriano donors, including small donors. My donation check was too late to be included in this reporting cycle.
Wow, I guess “big-tent conservatism” really is dead. Nice of the GOP to shit on PA voters like that.
A friend is a former PA state legislator (and now a registered and active Libertarian). He knows Mastriano and considers him a statist and a potential dictator. One PA gauleiter was enough.
@OM, I was just hitting the button to leave the zooms last night when I saw your glass and thought, “Is he drinking absinthe?”
Yes. Yes he was.
I used to travel through Schiphol regularly in the 90s and early 00s. I always like KLM and Schiphol.
Too bad about the climate nuts ruining the place.
He wouldâve gotten away with it, too, if it hadnât been for those meddling kids:

Time for another tall Irish Covfefe.
I started with coffee then switched to guiness, so it’s Irish Aftercoffee.

Odd that they grow straight. I remember long ago it was some dude in India and they grew in curlicues. I think he was on “That’s Incredible!”
I hope it isn’t us taxpayers enabling this nut.
