  1. It was more silly kind of humor back then. Politics crept in but it wasn't the main goal, or at least as a kid I didn't see it that way.

    They did a lot of spoofing of commercials.

    I also watched SCTV back then and Monty Python on PBS as well as Benny Hill.

    Now it's mostly political it seems and only sometimes funny but very lopsided towards the left.

    Euro is all I do. I need to skin it and boil the meat off. I bleach the skull and put a sealer on the horns.  

    Every idea coming out of Europe isn't bad I guess. Might be the best way to go.

    Going to binge watch and may pull out the "Band of Brothers", one of the best in my opinion!

    Somehow I never got through the whole series. What I saw was excellent. 

    I remember seeing an episode where just after the war they were on occupation duty.

    Must have been a strange time to be serving. 

     

    There was also a follow-up about the Pacific Theatre I believe.

     

  4. Nothing I would use unless temporarily handicapped like after a hernia surgery.

    If I became permanently disabled I'd get the handicapped permit.

    Good on Lowes though. The spots remind folks that the life they enjoy is in great part to the people who served and are currently serving.

    I was only a 63 november at the end of the Cold War so no combat here but I was ready and in position if needed.

    I am thankful to those who went before me and after who did see action.

    Sadly many just don't appreciate how important the military is.

    Damned if the timing of this stuff isn't convenient!

     

    This sucks.

    Prayers for everyone involved.

    If the last two incidents have anything to do with political timing or political anger about who might win or lose, we all better step up the prayers. Election day ain't here yet!

    My suspicion? Since the camera guy got cursed out by the perp, he wanted the cop to shoot him to right the wrong of being personally verbally assaulted. 

    Perhaps, typical a-hole anyway. The world is full of them but fortunately some people change. 

     Cops did a good job for sure, I believe there are times that shooting an unarmed man is justified, but these cops had plenty of space and opportunity to get him down non lethally. 

  7. Looks like the guy disliked Trump and was a major anti-semite. I guess Trump's son in law has something to do with that.

    What the heck is going on with the timing of these incidents? I try not to think we're all being manipulated but first the Midterm Bomber then another mass shooting right before a big election.

    Maybe statistically these things happen every so often and occasionally intersect with Elections. I keep telling myself that anyway.

  8. Poor people and their families. 

    The Ushers or Deacons or whoevever needs to be guarding the congregation somewhat. It runs through my mind every Sunday as I sit with my back to the door. Don't know all details yet but cameras, emergency plans and of course a few trained armed people could stop these things from being so bad. 

    Anyway,looks like an AR-15 went off by itself and killed a bunch of people again.  

  9. People who retire early enough and are fit enough to enjoy a large tract of land, They have it made!

    If you don't have to work, or commute to a job in a City, affordable land is still for sale. 

    Not as far out from Civilization as you might expect either.

    And if you get tired of living and playing on your acreage and start getting lonely?

    Don't worry, If you wait a few years, the population will reach you eventually.😟

  10. Sorry to hear that bersaguy.

    If My shoulder hurt all the time like it does when I move it the wrong way I'd have to get on some serious drugs.

    I have an iffy back and slight knee issues too. My failing body is why I decided to change professions from welding before it was too late.

    Any time I get feeling sorry for myself I think of all the people who are my age and already have a cane or stooped over etc.

     So I'm really pretty well off I guess.

    I’m focused on East Tennessee for a mix of the weather, geography and demographics.  I’ll be looking for a home on a piece of heavily wooded land. I’m tired of maintaining a lawn or dealing with a pasture.  Privacy and seclusion are important to me. Although I’ll consider 5 acres I’d prefer to be at 10 acres or more. 

    If you want to see some property in the Cookeville area message me. I've been showing a few properties within a half hour or so that might meet your needs.
