One of the stories about Venezuela that is darkly comic, out in the last couple of weeks, is that now thousands of oilfield workers, including almost all at the professional level, are fleeing the country with little more than the clothes on their backs. Reason? Maduro's answer to dropping oil production and problems in that sector was to arrest a lot of the people running it, and to place a General in charge who knew absolutely nothing about the oil industry. The General's answer to failing equipment and declining production was to bring his goon squads and threaten to shoot anyone who didn't make production go back up again. Surprise, surprise, everyone who has even the slightest bit of expertise is running away as fast as they can.

To run some of the refineries that don't have enough workers anymore, the General has sent in 20 year old illiterates with guns, and the only solution they know to something going wrong is to either yell at it or shoot it. Yep, that's a good way to stop that refinery from exploding.

…the real reason that prices are rising - Venezuelan oil output is crashing, badly…

If you love word play, you probably know that a word — or longer piece of writing — that reads the same forward and backward is called a palindrome. But what do you call a word that spells another word backwards, or a word that looks the same upside down? When terms for these orthographic puzzlers didn't exist, logolologists (such as the authors of the books listed below) were happy to invent some. Here are a few…

The handkerchief code (also known as the hanky code, the bandana code, and flagging[1]) is a color-coded system, employed usually among the gay male casual-sex seekers or BDSM practitioners in the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe, to indicate preferred sexual fetishes, what kind of sex they are seeking, and whether they are a top/dominant or bottom/submissive.…

…The cost of state dinners, paid for by the State Dept., ran about $250,000 to 300,000 (in constant 2000 dollars) from the time of Reagan through Bush43.

…FEC records show that the Hillary Clinton Presidential Campaign and the DNC conspired to launder $84 million in campaign funds in order to purposely hide donations far in excess of the legal limits for individual donors.

…On this day in 1980 eight U.S. servicemen died in Operation Eagle Claw as they attempted to end the Iran hostage crisis. We had a coop student at the time who said his father was on that mission and the whole thing was a CF because everybody wanted a piece of the pie and there was no coordination. Of course it was setup in the Jimmy Peanut WH.

…In the coup against President Trump, now that Russian collusion and the phony Steele/Clinton/Obama dossier has been debunked as a fraud, we have an interesting analysis from William Jacobson at Legal Insurrection; to wit, the effort to now go after PDT's personal business via the Michael Cohen investigation at the Southern District of NY has been ginned up by, you guessed it, Fusion GPS. …

OT from the blog of Jordan Peterseon's daughter Mikhaela:

For those of you who don't know, Dad and I had extremely severe depression/anxiety. We managed to get most of it under control with the extremely strict original diet. No cheating. AT ALL. I would say it worked better for me than for dad mood-wise. It fixed his autoimmune symptoms, he lost 50 pounds, got rid of his snoring and GERD, so it helped, but it wasn't good enough to completely remove the anxiety-ridden mornings. And anxiety-ridden is putting it mildly. He was experiencing a doom-y feeling in the mornings that would slowly fade by the evenings. No way to live really.)

Anyway, he went from eating meat and greens to only eating meat and felt better in TWO days. TWO. DAYS.

…I want to start off with arguably the most radical and hence most dangerous miscreant to have been a part of the eight-year Obama reign of error. Eric Holder's disdain for America as founded, its institutions, traditions and most crucially its people was palpably detectable every time he opened up his pie-hole to blood-libel or otherwise smear the aforementioned.…

…The engine on Shults's plane had, in fact, exploded on Tuesday, spraying shrapnel into the aircraft, causing a window to be blown out and leaving one passenger dead and seven others injured. Frightened passengers on board the Dallas-bound flight braced for impact as oxygen masks muffled their screams.

In the midst of the chaos, Shults successfully completed an emergency landing at the Philadelphia International Airport, sparing the lives of 148 people and averting a far worse catastrophe.…

Ahead of a summit next week between North Korean premier Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-In, lawmakers from the neighboring states were thought to be negotiating the details of a joint statement that could outline an end to the military conflict between the two countries.

…On this day in 1969 Sirhan Sirhan was convicted of assassinating Robert F. Kennedy. He was a Palestinian muzzie who was let into the country on a visa and supposedly shot Kennedy because of US aid to Israel. He was originally sentence to death but CA's death penalty was killed for a while by stupid black robes and his sentence was commuted to life. The mean time served for first degree murder in CA is about 33 years. It has now been almost 50 years since he was convicted.…

…The big story this Tuesday is the outing of Sean Hannity as Trump personal attorney Michael Cohen's unnamed client.… You know what, let Mueller stay where he is and keep doing what he's doing. In the end, he will wind up as disgraced and discredited as James Comey.…

Good Morning Morons. Sorry no links today because just got up. Had company yesterday and we had a "porch sitten" with corn squeezins.

I think this strike has to be seen in the bigger picture of what Trump is trying to do in the region. He is trying to reorder the structure that Obama put into place.…

Many of our bombers took off last night from bases in Qatar and flew through Saudi air space to hit Syria. That was a big message to Russia and Iran as well as to our allies. When Trump went to Saudi early in his administration he told them clearly that it was up to them to drive terrorism and bad actors out of the region. We would have their back and provide strategic support but they had to finally get into the game and take the lead. He said it again last night after the attack.

Like it or not the Middle East is a very strategic region and we can't cede it to Russia and Iran which is exactly what Obama did for 8 years.

…On the afternoon of April 14, the residents of the Plains States were forced to take cover as a dust storm, or "black blizzard", blew through the region. The storm hit the Oklahoma Panhandle and Northwestern Oklahoma first, and moved south for the remainder of the day. It hit Beaver around 4:00 p.m., Boise City around 5:15 p.m., and Amarillo, Texas, at 7:20 p.m. The conditions were the most severe in the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles, but the storm's effects were felt in other surrounding areas.

The storm was harsh due to the high winds that hit the area that day. The combination of drought, erosion, bare soil, and winds caused the dust to fly freely and at high speeds.…

…On this day in 1935 the Black Sunday dust storm, considered one of the worst storms of the Dust Bowl, swept across the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles and neighboring areas.

…"It is entirely possible I was making decisions in an environment where Hillary Clinton was sure to be the next president…"

James Comey is a proven LEAKER & LIAR. Virtually everyone in Washington thought he should be fired for the terrible job he did-until he was, in fact, fired. He leaked CLASSIFIED information, for which he should be prosecuted. He lied to Congress under OATH. He is a weak and untruthful slime ball who was, as time has proven, a terrible Director of the FBI. His handling of the Crooked Hillary Clinton case, and the events surrounding it, will go down as one of the worst “botch jobs” of history. It was my great honor to fire James Comey!

The shooter who took her own life after wounding four YouTube employees at the video hosting website’s San Bruno, California, offices on Tuesday has been identified as Nasim Aghdam… long history of animal rights activism… claims to be from Iran…

…It wasn't about the facts in the case - it was about the fact that the 9th Circuit ruled that the Officer should have known Judicial Precedent was against him, because of a decision that they handed down some months AFTER the shooting. Seriously, that was the 9th Circuit's reasoning.

The Supreme Court, in a surprising 7-2 margin, took this rather insignificant case about a lawsuit just for the chance to once again publicly slap down the 9th Circuit and tell them they are all ignoramuses who wouldn't know a legal precedent if it jumped up on the table and danced and sang a little song saying "I am a Legal Precedent!"

…On this day in 1859 Bryant's Minstrels debuted the song "Dixie" in New York City in the finale of a blackface minstrel show. Somehow it has become known as a 'hate song' now. And if anyone had the audacity to try a blackface minstrel show in NYC now they would be run out of town.
