I don’t own one, but I know people who do. the liquid fuel rc cars are a major pain in the ass. The have carbureted engines. That is fine, but when you a carbureted engine that is that small, you run into all kinds of trouble. Any change in atmospheric pressure, temperature, or humidity requires a carburetor adjustment. The consensus from the owners I know is that they are fun when you get to play with them but you spend hours getting them tuned out right to get minutes of fun.

My grandfather was a sensible man. When he was in his late eighties, he asked my father to build him a coffin, as commercial ones are stupid expensive. My father and I spent a lot of time and built him a beautiful cedar coffin. The joints were all dovetailed and there was a maple cross across the lid. It was a work of art, really.
When we were done, we showed it to him. The first thing he did was take the lid off and lay down in it to see if it fit. I was not expecting this. It may have been the strangest thing I have ever seen.
Grandpa lived another 8 years before we buried him in that coffin

Mummification costs more, but it’s a classier choice:
***
The leader in mummification services, by far, is a Salt Lake City-based outfit called Summum. Summum, around since 1975, claims to be the only reputable provider in the world.
Summum, unfortunately, isn’t doing media interviews right now. But it pointed me to its amazingly dense website, summum.org, where it professes its devotion to developing the art and science of human tissue preservation (and also shows off its adorable mascot, the Mummy Bear).
It also offers a guide to the mummification process and a hefty cost estimate for the service and all the bells and whistles it contains: an average of $67,000.
That might sound like a lot. Because it is.
But consider what you get! Your organs will be removed and cleansed in a baptismal font filled with special chemicals. Your body will be wrapped in cotton gauze—and silk, if you want it—before being sealed in a polymer and then placed in a sculpted figurine that’s then filled with an amber resin. After that, you can end up in a sarcophagus or just be buried like normal—which is cheaper, but also lame, since you just spent all that other money on a funeral treatment fit for a king.

Out of curiosity, I have posted several links to mises.org here and have received comments in reply indicating mises is a racist publication. Whats up wth that? if any of yall know.
Derpetologist
here ya go:
***
“Nothing, however, is as ill founded as the assertion of the alleged equality of all members of the human race.”~Ludwig Von Mises, Liberalism, p 28
I was wondering why the Tea Party Libertarian types were surrounded by anarchists. This quote by Ludwig Von Mises shows what an anarchist he was. Or at least he was an anarcho-capitalist. Read it carefully:
“Man is born an asocial and antisocial being. The newborn child is a savage. Egoism is his nature. Only the experience of life and the teachings of his parents, his brothers, sisters, playmates, and later of other people FORCE HIM to acknowledge the advantages of social cooperation and accordingly to change his behavior.” ~Ludwig Von Mises, Omnipotent Government, p. 241
I saw that posted in a comment section of the Daily Bail. The entire comment section is interesting reading. Rand and Rothbard don’t come across so well either. Turns out Rand was a friend and Rothbard was a student. Anarchists use libertarianism to hide their true intent or is it the other way around? It is interesting that Ron Paul says that anarchists hover around his campaign. He seemed delighted. I don’t know why. I realize there are some peaceful anarchists but most are not.
Government does force upon children the necessity of civilization. That does not mean we have to follow our leaders like sheep. But Mises seems to delight in anti socialization and savagery like that is some kind of birthright. If you are anti social you are perhaps more capable of dividing yourself from the riff raff and more capable of doing bad things to them.
As the comment section continued one guy says private property only reflects power to control. While that is true for many powerful people, the idea that it is essential for people just wanting to raise a family without the rent going up is absurd.
I have decided that you can’t trust a political philosopher. They are, frankly, very creepy. Some of them are racist as well. Putting that philosophy and racism in the hands of libertarians is like giving a match to a three year old.
***
you ,must keep a derp pile to be able to up with so quickly. that said, the jist of those commenters argument is, “individualism is racist” they can eat a dick
John Titor
You’ve had people here say it’s a racist publication? Was it mostly Just Say’n being really sarcastic?
Most of it is in reference to the current infighting (as opposed to the normal infighting) within libertarian circles between the Koch-cosmo brand and the more right Paulistas.
Lachowsky
I’m sure it was sarcasm. I just don’t know where the origin of the racist claim comes from. I have read a shit load of mises and rothbard, There isn’t any racism in it. Someone with a large audience as some point has labeled them as racists. I just don’t know who did it or when they did.
John Titor
The TL;DR argument of various cosmos is “some of the people who read Mises is racist, therefore they’re a platform for racists”.
Of course this standard isn’t applied to say, some of the racist shit I see in Reason comments now.
Lachowsky
I’ve seen that arguement before. Racist comments make an article racist. It’s stupid, but a lot of people are stupid.
Heroic Mulatto
I have posted several links to mises.org here and have received comments in reply indicating mises is a racist publication.
Who said that?
Lachowsky
I believe it has been in jest, but for it to have been in jest, there has to have been a claim to its racism for the jester to jest about I have never seen the claim. I’m curious where the claim came from?
John Titor
Some of the cosmos at Reason, Cato and such have been pimping arguments that the more right-wing side of libertarianism is harbouring racists and what-not.
Lachowsky
I hate that the Mises/Rothbard brand of libertarianism is labeled right wing. I hate it because its not. Right wing implies things that Mises/Rothbard are not. If you can find a more anti war brand of libertarianism than them, id be surprised.
John Titor
To the cosmos it is ‘right-wing’, at least in the American sense of the term. Mostly meaning that some of them are Christfags and disapprove of certain behaviour while refusing to use the government to enforce their will.
Rothbard kind of fucked them with his redneck outreach program that manifested the Ron Paul letters. Now every cosmo gets a chance to go ‘you see! They’ll work with racists so they basically are racists!”.

A lot of the hatred is projection. The Jackets of the world think that Mises libertarians only want no/limited government because they whites will win in that situation. Spitballing here, but that’s the vibe I get.
Lachowsky
If that is the logical conclusion to their thought process, then they are no smarter than your average prog. Fucking individualism, how does it work?
John Titor
I don’t think it’s a ‘whites will win’ scenario, more that the Mises brand doesn’t kowtow to the ‘multicultural, inclusive’ concept that the cosmos think they push for, when in reality they’re just recycling left-wing talking points.
straffinrun
Like I said, I’m being an armchair psychologist, but their obsessive desire to differentiate themselves from Yokels compels them to scour Mises people’s work, looking for anything that can be seen as racist. TBH there are racists that float through, but they leave pretty quickly. See Cantwell.
John Titor
Or the cast of the Radix, many of whom claim to be ‘former libertarians’ before pushing their racial shit.
I recognize that fringe ideologies will always attract fringe individuals, and you have to take the good with the bad. Cantwell is an idiot, regardless of whether he’s a libertarian or a ‘race realist’.
I think the cosmo attack on the Mises group and other libertarians comes from their unwillingness to push the same cultural mindset. Mises libertarians tend to recognize that culture matters, while the cosmos argue that culture is irrelevant in regards to the libertarian moment they’re aiming for. The reality of the situation (and my views on it are fairly honest and open, given my comments on this site) is that it matters more than they wish.
straffinrun
Sounds right. Read Dalmia’s piece where she opines on Japan and almost choked on my onigiri. There is no doubt that Mises people for the most part understand culture’s role in creating a society. The Cosmos believe that lawz can correct culture gone bad.
Lachowsky
as far as I can tell, cosmo libertarianism is just leftys who are aren’t economically illiterate.
John Titor
Sounds right. Read Dalmia’s piece where she opines on Japan and almost choked on my onigiri.
Or her absolute hatred of Canadian immigration policy. It’s reflective of a group of individuals more interested in signalling their ‘cultural sensitivity’ rather than analyzing the cultures they defend. I note that Dalmia stays far away from her homeland, and only comments on the overall political situation rather than the systemic problems in Indian society.

I think it is more that non-fringe groups don’t have to account for the people within their group that hold disgusting views.

Well, here’s some derp I’ve never seen before:
***
The problem is that E=mc2 does not meaning anything that makes sense. Anyone is welcome to try to explain it here. Eating a pound of cake does not cause one’s energy to increase by the speed of light squared.
—Andrew Schlafly[5]
“”Attempts to prove E=mc² are futile because there is no mass-energy equivalence. But that has not stopped people, including liberals who avoid the Bible, from insisting that they have cleverly developed a “proof” of E=mc², and thereby established a mass-energy equivalence which, in fact, does not exist.
—Conservapedia’s article on “Attempts to prove E=mc²”[6]
“”E=mc² is an eye-catching formula that has been heavily promoted in popular culture, such as by the classic television series the Twilight Zone. The primary effect of the formula appears to be to lead students away from the Bible, which implicitly rejects a unified theory for mass and light. Indeed, despite a century of searching, physicists themselves have completely failed at developing a coherent unified theory for both mass and light as implied by the formula.
The formula E=mc² has several logical flaws. Here is the growing list:
the speed of light is probably changing over time. But according to the formula, a mass at constant energy would change precisely in inverse proportion squared of any change in the speed of light!
how is “m” defined? The formula is unclear about that.
the formula falsely implies that it is impossible for matter to increase its energy without increasing its mass in direct proportion.
if the formula were true, then why hasn’t the formula led to anything of value?
the formula implies existence of a unified theory of mass and light, when no such theory is possible.
—Conservapedia’s article on “Logical Flaws in E=mc²”[7]
***
I recently read something that made a lot of sense to me regarding Einstein’s theorem.
Basically when measuring the mass of subatomic particles like quarks, they found the masses to not add up to the weight of the protons and neutrons that they combined to form. The original formulation of the theory is that m=E/c^2. The theory put forward by the article’s author was that mass doesn’t exist and is a property of the energy of the quarks… which makes gravity make more sense, maybe (my own thoughts there).

Speaking of the Twilight Zone, it was one of the best things ever to be put on television. Netflix has every season. I just watched one of my all time favorites, Two, with a young Charles Bronson and Elizabeth Montgomery. What a hottie she was, I loved her as a kid.

No convience stores eell that here. We have “head shops.” (no idea why they’re called that) I’ve only been in one once, with someone who knew what he was doing.
You have to call everything by the proper name or you get booted. A couple young dudes came in while I was there and asked for bong. They were promptly shown the door. And after they left the gal behind the counter called their other store, described the guys, and they were blackballed before they even go there. I’m told you can ask for “water pipes” but not “bongs.” Too confusing for me.
John Titor
That sounds almost near fascistic for the proper pot smoker. I admit, I haven’t gotten high in half a decade, but the head shops up here tend to be more relaxed about it. The convenience store I regularly go to (the one with the giant picture of Genghis Khan, if anyone remembers me talking about that) openly sells papers and has bongs on the shelf, so maybe your experience is different than mine.

“If we want young women to be strong and have voices and advocate for themselves, then we have to realize how much work we have to do,’’ Obama added. “And I’m talking to the men out there, who cannot be innocent bystanders and complacent … watching this happen.”

It says that in ’79 it became the new fat albert show
And in ’84 it became fat albert and the cosby kids
Taht would lead one to assume that perhaps the episode
Fat Albert and the gang would have just had wild party’s and date raped some bitches and not reported shit if the Coz had any influence on the show.
I am thinking I stopped watching Sat morn cartoons in the late seventies so I missed the ruining of Fat Albert.
yes Taht. Fuck.

Year in review? What calendar is HM working off of? I would like to know because I want this year to end already also. Has it been mentioned yet that the greatest person of the year made it mainstream? Poppy made NPR and was interviewed by that smug insufferable cunt Scott Simon. Scott Simon is so woke he refuses to say the word Redskins when talking about football and probably thinks anybody who would say Redskins should have their head stuffed into a red paint can.
The Glibertarians Fiscal Year, of course.
Hey, now I know Poppy has an album! *buys*
I would think many here would be into that album. There seems to be a large Japanese pop contingent among the Glibertariat.
WTF?
You noticed the racist guy speaks like Paul Lynde too?
I didn’t notice it was a video at first. I was commenting on that crazy preview picture.
I’m a dumbfuck. I didn’t notice this was a video. I saw the crazy preview picture. Then I watched the video about Fat Albert and a racist. Well, that’s what happens when a black person goes to Bridesburg. He should stick to playing Buck Buck.
What was the preview image for you? For me it was a newscaster with Nintendo’s Toad on a screen behind him, but I watch a lot of video game-related stuff on YouTube so I wasn’t sure if it was showing something related to my history. If that’s the default image… wtf.
Lmao I reloaded it and it’s Sean Hannity, not just a newscaster. I didn’t look very carefully before I hit play. I want to know what that is.
Interesting. I find HM’s rants make a lot more sense if you tune them to Ruby Rhod’s radio show from the Fifth Element.

A week or so back I kept responding to the wrong comments or posting new threads in old ones. I was afraid the Gilmore was going to be renamed in my honor.
Any bets on how long they’ll be together? Will she convert him, or will ENB go full prog when she starts writing for Salon?
Vanity[b] of vanities, says the Preacher,

Seconded.
I’m confused. Who is that guy and why should I care?
“That guy” is Mr. Nolan Brown to you, sir!
What the hell is wrong with her?
I got money on it being a weird sex thing.
I would never date or FFS marry someone in the same field as me. That’s just asking for trouble.
This may just be a bit of a guess but ENB might just have a poor sense of judgement and possible impulse control problems.
I’m listening…
I would never date or FFS marry someone in the same field as me. That’s just asking for trouble
I met the woman I eventually married at work. I used to fix the machine she operated.. After we got married, I took a job elsewhere in less than 3 months.
So in S&M culture a lot of the sadists are actually really mild-mannered and submissive in their everyday lives. Asawin is an established and well known mangina, while ENB is apparently into some sub stuff like getting choked. You get two compatible people together in that community and often times they start to do stuff to each other they can’t get anywhere else…
Alternatively he could be into cuckolding and ENB’s apparently not into the whole ‘monogamy’ thing but that’s too good to be true.
Well, he did call her a “rape denialist”, and she still married him.
I’m guessing she also drinks his pee.
Nah, I think it could totally be that. Especially considering since she dated Chad “Chris” Thundercock.
Based on her current build it seems that’s the only thing she’s been eating or drinking.
Good point. I won’t claim I haven’t been attracted to various co-workers. But I would do exactly that if it went any further.
ENB has a kinky side..
I think the kinkiest thing I did with my post-college boyfriend was watch the Paris Hilton sex tape together before fucking.
This is quite possibly one of the lamest things I’ve ever heard.
I fucking hate Paris Hilton. In the early 2000’s she came to my hometown and filmed a reality tv show about how fucking stupid we country folk are. Fuck her.
no special reason really. he’s ENB’s fiancee, and he once had an entertaining spat with HM. if interested, search for the term “insufferable” on Reason.com

Slightly used coffin, only used twice. Serious buyers only. This is a great deal. No holds. Text or call [hidden information] for more information or to see in person. This deal is to die for.
It is only $100, and looks like its in great shape, what do you guys think?
My grandfather was a sensible man. When he was in his late eighties, he asked my father to build him a coffin, as commercial ones are stupid expensive. My father and I spent a lot of time and built him a beautiful cedar coffin. The joints were all dovetailed and there was a maple cross across the lid. It was a work of art, really.
When we were done, we showed it to him. The first thing he did was take the lid off and lay down in it to see if it fit. I was not expecting this. It may have been the strangest thing I have ever seen.
Grandpa lived another 8 years before we buried him in that coffin

Mummification costs more, but it’s a classier choice:
***
The leader in mummification services, by far, is a Salt Lake City-based outfit called Summum. Summum, around since 1975, claims to be the only reputable provider in the world.
Summum, unfortunately, isn’t doing media interviews right now. But it pointed me to its amazingly dense website, summum.org, where it professes its devotion to developing the art and science of human tissue preservation (and also shows off its adorable mascot, the Mummy Bear).
It also offers a guide to the mummification process and a hefty cost estimate for the service and all the bells and whistles it contains: an average of $67,000.
That might sound like a lot. Because it is.
But consider what you get! Your organs will be removed and cleansed in a baptismal font filled with special chemicals. Your body will be wrapped in cotton gauze—and silk, if you want it—before being sealed in a polymer and then placed in a sculpted figurine that’s then filled with an amber resin. After that, you can end up in a sarcophagus or just be buried like normal—which is cheaper, but also lame, since you just spent all that other money on a funeral treatment fit for a king.

My father and I built a coffin because we are both good at woodworking. I know fuck all about how to properly mummify a body.
Practice makes perfect!
If you’ve ever slaughtered livestock you’ve basically got all the skill sets needed already.
so remove the organs, keep the skin intact and dehydrate the rest. I have a dehydrator. Its not near large enough to accommodate a human body though. I reckon I will need to upgrade.
That makes a lot of sense. I’d never really considered it, but I think I will do something similar for myself…
Out of curiosity, I have posted several links to mises.org here and have received comments in reply indicating mises is a racist publication. Whats up wth that? if any of yall know.
here ya go:
***
“Nothing, however, is as ill founded as the assertion of the alleged equality of all members of the human race.”~Ludwig Von Mises, Liberalism, p 28
I was wondering why the Tea Party Libertarian types were surrounded by anarchists. This quote by Ludwig Von Mises shows what an anarchist he was. Or at least he was an anarcho-capitalist. Read it carefully:
“Man is born an asocial and antisocial being. The newborn child is a savage. Egoism is his nature. Only the experience of life and the teachings of his parents, his brothers, sisters, playmates, and later of other people FORCE HIM to acknowledge the advantages of social cooperation and accordingly to change his behavior.” ~Ludwig Von Mises, Omnipotent Government, p. 241
I saw that posted in a comment section of the Daily Bail. The entire comment section is interesting reading. Rand and Rothbard don’t come across so well either. Turns out Rand was a friend and Rothbard was a student. Anarchists use libertarianism to hide their true intent or is it the other way around? It is interesting that Ron Paul says that anarchists hover around his campaign. He seemed delighted. I don’t know why. I realize there are some peaceful anarchists but most are not.
Government does force upon children the necessity of civilization. That does not mean we have to follow our leaders like sheep. But Mises seems to delight in anti socialization and savagery like that is some kind of birthright. If you are anti social you are perhaps more capable of dividing yourself from the riff raff and more capable of doing bad things to them.
As the comment section continued one guy says private property only reflects power to control. While that is true for many powerful people, the idea that it is essential for people just wanting to raise a family without the rent going up is absurd.
I have decided that you can’t trust a political philosopher. They are, frankly, very creepy. Some of them are racist as well. Putting that philosophy and racism in the hands of libertarians is like giving a match to a three year old.

you ,must keep a derp pile to be able to up with so quickly. that said, the jist of those commenters argument is, “individualism is racist” they can eat a dick
You’ve had people here say it’s a racist publication? Was it mostly Just Say’n being really sarcastic?
Most of it is in reference to the current infighting (as opposed to the normal infighting) within libertarian circles between the Koch-cosmo brand and the more right Paulistas.
I’m sure it was sarcasm. I just don’t know where the origin of the racist claim comes from. I have read a shit load of mises and rothbard, There isn’t any racism in it. Someone with a large audience as some point has labeled them as racists. I just don’t know who did it or when they did.
The TL;DR argument of various cosmos is “some of the people who read Mises is racist, therefore they’re a platform for racists”.
Of course this standard isn’t applied to say, some of the racist shit I see in Reason comments now.
I’ve seen that arguement before. Racist comments make an article racist. It’s stupid, but a lot of people are stupid.
I have posted several links to mises.org here and have received comments in reply indicating mises is a racist publication.
Who said that?
I believe it has been in jest, but for it to have been in jest, there has to have been a claim to its racism for the jester to jest about I have never seen the claim. I’m curious where the claim came from?
Some of the cosmos at Reason, Cato and such have been pimping arguments that the more right-wing side of libertarianism is harbouring racists and what-not.
I hate that the Mises/Rothbard brand of libertarianism is labeled right wing. I hate it because its not. Right wing implies things that Mises/Rothbard are not. If you can find a more anti war brand of libertarianism than them, id be surprised.
To the cosmos it is ‘right-wing’, at least in the American sense of the term. Mostly meaning that some of them are Christfags and disapprove of certain behaviour while refusing to use the government to enforce their will.
Rothbard kind of fucked them with his redneck outreach program that manifested the Ron Paul letters. Now every cosmo gets a chance to go ‘you see! They’ll work with racists so they basically are racists!”.
Somehow Tucker isn’t challenged in the same way.
Slaves were sold in markets
Libertarians support markets
Therefore, libertarians support slavery
QE-mothafuckin-D, bitches!
A lot of the hatred is projection. The Jackets of the world think that Mises libertarians only want no/limited government because they whites will win in that situation. Spitballing here, but that’s the vibe I get.
If that is the logical conclusion to their thought process, then they are no smarter than your average prog. Fucking individualism, how does it work?
I don’t think it’s a ‘whites will win’ scenario, more that the Mises brand doesn’t kowtow to the ‘multicultural, inclusive’ concept that the cosmos think they push for, when in reality they’re just recycling left-wing talking points.
Like I said, I’m being an armchair psychologist, but their obsessive desire to differentiate themselves from Yokels compels them to scour Mises people’s work, looking for anything that can be seen as racist. TBH there are racists that float through, but they leave pretty quickly. See Cantwell.
Or the cast of the Radix, many of whom claim to be ‘former libertarians’ before pushing their racial shit.
I recognize that fringe ideologies will always attract fringe individuals, and you have to take the good with the bad. Cantwell is an idiot, regardless of whether he’s a libertarian or a ‘race realist’.
I think the cosmo attack on the Mises group and other libertarians comes from their unwillingness to push the same cultural mindset. Mises libertarians tend to recognize that culture matters, while the cosmos argue that culture is irrelevant in regards to the libertarian moment they’re aiming for. The reality of the situation (and my views on it are fairly honest and open, given my comments on this site) is that it matters more than they wish.
Sounds right. Read Dalmia’s piece where she opines on Japan and almost choked on my onigiri. There is no doubt that Mises people for the most part understand culture’s role in creating a society. The Cosmos believe that lawz can correct culture gone bad.
as far as I can tell, cosmo libertarianism is just leftys who are aren’t economically illiterate.
Sounds right. Read Dalmia’s piece where she opines on Japan and almost choked on my onigiri.
Or her absolute hatred of Canadian immigration policy. It’s reflective of a group of individuals more interested in signalling their ‘cultural sensitivity’ rather than analyzing the cultures they defend. I note that Dalmia stays far away from her homeland, and only comments on the overall political situation rather than the systemic problems in Indian society.
Straffin, it isn’t the laws that can correct society, it is the magic soil. Just pour a teaspoon on any incoming immigrant and they turn into right-thinking Americans.
JT you said:
I think it is more that non-fringe groups don’t have to account for the people within their group that hold disgusting views.
Well, here’s some derp I’ve never seen before:

The problem is that E=mc2 does not meaning anything that makes sense. Anyone is welcome to try to explain it here. Eating a pound of cake does not cause one’s energy to increase by the speed of light squared.
—Andrew Schlafly[5]
“”Attempts to prove E=mc² are futile because there is no mass-energy equivalence. But that has not stopped people, including liberals who avoid the Bible, from insisting that they have cleverly developed a “proof” of E=mc², and thereby established a mass-energy equivalence which, in fact, does not exist.
—Conservapedia’s article on “Attempts to prove E=mc²”[6]
“”E=mc² is an eye-catching formula that has been heavily promoted in popular culture, such as by the classic television series the Twilight Zone. The primary effect of the formula appears to be to lead students away from the Bible, which implicitly rejects a unified theory for mass and light. Indeed, despite a century of searching, physicists themselves have completely failed at developing a coherent unified theory for both mass and light as implied by the formula.
The formula E=mc² has several logical flaws. Here is the growing list:
the speed of light is probably changing over time. But according to the formula, a mass at constant energy would change precisely in inverse proportion squared of any change in the speed of light!
how is “m” defined? The formula is unclear about that.
the formula falsely implies that it is impossible for matter to increase its energy without increasing its mass in direct proportion.
if the formula were true, then why hasn’t the formula led to anything of value?
the formula implies existence of a unified theory of mass and light, when no such theory is possible.
—Conservapedia’s article on “Logical Flaws in E=mc²”[7]

I recently read something that made a lot of sense to me regarding Einstein’s theorem.
Basically when measuring the mass of subatomic particles like quarks, they found the masses to not add up to the weight of the protons and neutrons that they combined to form. The original formulation of the theory is that m=E/c^2. The theory put forward by the article’s author was that mass doesn’t exist and is a property of the energy of the quarks… which makes gravity make more sense, maybe (my own thoughts there).
Speaking of the Twilight Zone, it was one of the best things ever to be put on television. Netflix has every season. I just watched one of my all time favorites, Two, with a young Charles Bronson and Elizabeth Montgomery. What a hottie she was, I loved her as a kid.
Elizabeth Montgomery was a very early crush of mine. What a beautiful woman.
Mine as well. I grew up in the 80’s, but loved the old shows that used to play on the UHF channels. Barbara Eden was also quite the minx.
I’m of the same genre. I also fell for her watching re-runs. And yes…Barbara was delightful as well.

So other than it fitting together every piece of experimental data and having been validated tens of thousands of times, how can we be expected to believe that it’s correct?
/shakes head sadly at remarkable scientific ignorance.
Actually, we know relativity and quantum mechanics are wrong. Physicists are still trying to make them fit together or come up with one theory that breaks down to both of them.
But they are more right than anything else right now.
Read up on the results coming out of the quantum hydrodynamics teams.
So, I have a naive question regarding the leafy gift ideas linked in tonight’s Zardoz links; I live in a state where it itsn’t legal. However, there is a loved one who I think would like one of the gifts. Do I just go ahead and buy it and ship it to myself, or do I look for a “straw man” in a state where it is legal? Am I just worrying too much?
I assume this is about pot, so: Shipping pot is like shipping money, it’s utterly retarded.
No, not pot. I’m actually not utterly retarded. Thanks for the assumption, though.
This is what I’m looking at.
Didn’t mean any offense, I just know plenty of folks who are willing to do stupid shit without realizing it’s stupid.
Based on Canadian experience, drug paraphernalia is all good due to federal laws; you can always claim its for tobacco use and there isn’t shit they can say about it.
No offense taken. I hear you on plenty of stupid folks out there.
I am pretty sure the paraphernalia laws are the same (or similar) here. I’m just worried/wondering if it puts me on some list I don’t want to be on.
*I swear…this paranoia is not caused by the devil weed. I don’t even like the shit. My drug of choice is alcohol.
If you are worried about being on a list, then you are posting on the wrong website.
Haha. Right? I’m just being a bit paranoid, I guess.
Up here we have convenience stores sell bongs and what-not (even before the Libs promised to make it legal), so I don’t think you’re in any danger.
even here in Arkansas, There is such a thing as “head shops” bongs, glass pipes. whippets, porn, dildos. Where there is a market, there is a entrepreneur.
No convience stores eell that here. We have “head shops.” (no idea why they’re called that) I’ve only been in one once, with someone who knew what he was doing.
You have to call everything by the proper name or you get booted. A couple young dudes came in while I was there and asked for bong. They were promptly shown the door. And after they left the gal behind the counter called their other store, described the guys, and they were blackballed before they even go there. I’m told you can ask for “water pipes” but not “bongs.” Too confusing for me.
That sounds almost near fascistic for the proper pot smoker. I admit, I haven’t gotten high in half a decade, but the head shops up here tend to be more relaxed about it. The convenience store I regularly go to (the one with the giant picture of Genghis Khan, if anyone remembers me talking about that) openly sells papers and has bongs on the shelf, so maybe your experience is different than mine.
damn. I guess the bible laws are stronger in the Dakotas than the south, that’s somewhat depressing to me.
Yeah, I’m not sure if it’s an overdose of caution, or why they are so sensitive. I also know one-hitters must be called “bats.”
And yet we just passed a medical MJ law by 65% last year, so maybe things will turn around. Once the top men get it smashed through their skull, that is.

Try that shit with me, I’ll pull your arms off
Former first lady Michelle Obama said this week that the recent slew of sexual misconduct allegations that have come to light make her “sick,” and urged men to do more to combat harassment and assault.
“I can’t tell you how sick it makes me, the more I see the uncovering of the truth that all us women know has been out there, that there is an ugliness there,” she said during a Thursday night speech in Hartford, Conn., according to People.
“If we want young women to be strong and have voices and advocate for themselves, then we have to realize how much work we have to do,’’ Obama added. “And I’m talking to the men out there, who cannot be innocent bystanders and complacent … watching this happen.”
Obama also said that her success in life is due to the fact that she was “loved and nurtured and invested [in],” according to People.
Next time I hear about a crime committed by a black person, I’m going to go lecture law-abiding black people about how it’s their responsibility to take action against this kind of thing and how they can’t just be complacent bystanders.
