For every measure, a counter. I know a guy told me he shot at an airplane buzzing his property. (Paintball on the windshield!) A 3D world requires 3D fences. So what, besides plain shootin' can counter drones? We need focused EMP rifles? Something!

Barrymore and Garbo in Grand Hotel...
Wow. Y'know, people just don't look like that anymore. "Chisled features," for one thing.
When our firstborn learned to undo the diaper cover closure tabs, let the diaper fall to the floor, and then pee on it, we knew it was time to start potty training. How do you do that with no diapers?
Firstborn: cloth diapers (diaper delivery is the greatest gift a new parent could receive). Those diaper covers with Velcro closers beat pins!! Plus, above-noted feature. Then we had twins; we tried cloth at first, but quickly gave ourselves the landfill-disposable multiples exemption from eco-correctness with no regrets.
"I don't think a picture of Barrymore would get the blood going in the morning. So here's a picture of Sophia Loren in a corset and stockings..."
Well, no complaint re Loren (other than her being overdressed), but if you're gonna refer to Barrymore as the Great Profile, some pic seems in order. And there are ettes to entertain.

for some reason I just want to hit the sack, and wake up, and have a fried egg sandwich. With mustard and mayo. And bacon. And coffee.
So I think I will.
537 comments. Must be almost over for the night.
Does the ONT poster have to stay up and mind the comments all night, or can they just post & move on... like Ace? :/
'Cause if chemjeff is going to keep hosting posts, we may finally get an answer to the old question, what happens when you mix Oxygen, Nitrogen, and whatever the T in ONT stands for.

Crap. I swear I did not hit post. Wasn't sure I as going to post last comment, but cells have minds of their own. Guess no harm. This time.
Witherspoon reminded me of my own non-intox'd ignorance when I got stopped one time. Never been frisked, suspected, or similarly hassled by a cop before, or since. Took about 3 times of him yelling at me to stay where I was for me to wise up.
Nothing but the highest respect for good cops. Nothing but the hottest contempt for a$$holes abusing badges.
My long, rambling story, once again, linked in nic.
Garrison Keiollerrr - secret agent of Agenda 21. Licensed to hate.
He can join Ebert. Plenty of room.
Mindy - flexihexagon -really cool and, yeah, learned sumpin. Thanks.
Great content on the ONT tonight, chemjeff. So far.
Ah, gotta leave the office & the comfortable big monitor and go to the cave with the smoke signal cell. In case I don't get back, roast a troll for me.
Pow! Right in the kisser! That'll teach you to call me a pussy!
Orbital Sciences Corporation...
Thanks for the report, as always, rickl. 40yo Ruskie rockets. That's American enterprise at work, right?

Only read up to #50. Figure anything I've got to say has been said by now. So I'll say it again.
Doesn't matter if newspapers are dying or not. For that kind of Koch walking-around money, buy them up, close the print shops down, sell off the machinery for scrap, write the whole thing off. Businesses do this all the time, gobbling and cannibalizing other businesses and spitting out the bones. Result? All those rags are gone sooner rather than later. Koch can play with the websites, which oddly enough are, and will continue to be, on an even playing field with any other person or group who can afford a domain name and figure out an anchor tag.
OW! Double commenting! Double commenting! Palsied double-click on the send button. I didn't even think Pixy, the little Minx, would let one do that.
We appreciate the Koch Brothers' interest, but we found that Al Jazzeeruh was a more suitable buyer, in line with our editorial policies.

Oh, sure, don't anybody put "new one up" in the morning thread. Just leave the room empty. The echo gave it away. Well, pthhhht. I've got things to do, bookworms. Have a day.
OSP sock fail: Heh. Sandy Fluke no longer shamelessly hawking her what?
I'm basically on piano guy's side of the argument re legalized everything, really, but barf your beer on my shoes, blow your smoke in my kids' face, put your meth lab in the next trailer over, and suffer the consequences.
That said, "supplament the income of abusers, feed their families and pay their medical bills" among the other Statist infections - that's the problem right there in a nutshell, with all dependent classes, druggies, alkies, or selected undocumented imminent citizens.
Liberty has to be total. Statist laws create a self-fulfilling inducement to more Statist laws. Tobacco smoker + socialist health care = State control of your liberty to enjoy a cigar. Beer. Steak. Endless etc.
Sumpin like that.
