    I can’t do citrus! Gives me a mild rash and heartburn for days!!

     

    Schoolmarm likes pomegranate! Me, not so much!!

     

     

     

    WOW! No citrus must really be hard!

     

    I don't care too much for pomegranate as an eating food,  but love pomegranate juice (makes a nice mixer with Amaretto, or mixed with ginger beer as a sprtizer) and pomegranate jelly.   Mom made lots of it every year,  as well as apricot jam and strawberry jam.   I didn't have commercial jam or jelly,  other than in restaurants, until my early teens.

    OK, so from a Canadian"

    WHAT ARE GRITS?

     And for God's sake don't tell me "Grits is Grits!" when I asked a Georgia waitress!

     

    Boiled gravel.

  3. If for breakfast as mush, with milk,  butter,  and syrup, jam,or honey.   

     

    If for evening meal, butter,  salt, and pepper. Preferably sauté some chopped onions and minced garlic in butter and then make the grits in the pan with them.  Serve with butter,  salt and pepper, maybe gravy or pan juices. 

     

    I like scrappel for breakfast. Cut about a quarter inch thick and fried crisp.  No syrup. Just plain along side eggs and bacon or sausage. 

     

    But I don't like fried cornmeal mush. Ot fried polenta.   I know that there is a difference between polenta and grits....type of corn and corseness of grind.  FEH! Same thing.

  4. As long as it's BACKGROUND i don't mind it.  Without it the voice just has a weird empty quality  to it.

     

    What is really objectionable,  to me anyway,  is that 2/3 of it is rap/hip-hop and too loud.  Last year one song in particular was disgusting,  and used in a half dozen commercials.  Played to the scene of somebody walking,  the lyrics,  in ghetto voice,  "All the pretty girls walk like this this this,  all the pretty girls walk like this " repeat.  First time I heard it I instantly translated it in my head as "All the slutty wh0res walk like... "   After a few weeks I looked up the lyrics.   My "translation" was cleaner than the lyrics of the verses.  Ribald and bawdy barracks room songs were cleaner.

    that stupid guy in the red shirt. I never could understand what he was saying, but I could have sure done without him popping up all the time.

     

    "You're jammed."  Or maybe,  "You got jammed."  I didn't pay attention.

    Here, we have a separate truck for yard/green waste.

    Another separate truck for Recycle, and a third for Trash.

     

    That's what they do here now.   Have to wonder if the carbon footprint of 3 large trucks is offset by whatever the reduction is in the recycling.   The yard waste gets composted and either used by the county or sold to the public.

    Thanks for the follow up but you have to give them your E-mail to read it. I'm glad that they dropped all of the charges and let him go if he paid damages to the drone. The Lake County Sheriffs Department deserves a little credit also for playing it cool. Lake County is a 2nd Amendment sanctuary county also.

     

    I had to laugh when he said "I can't breathe, I can't breathe."

     

    That was the main reason I posted it.   I came across a short video that started with the cuffs being put on and him saying that.   But I wanted more context to post.   He messed up.   He knew he messed up and so had a little bit of fun with it. 

     

    I had to close 3 or 4 pop-ups, but was able to read it without signing up. 

     

     

    I just remembered where I  saw it first....the FB page  of Fridays With Frank deputy from Arizona.   One of his comments was the he would have liked to have been able to do the drive to the jail with the guy.   Have fun, talk about guns and stuff.

    What irks me is that's exactly what the antis think of all of us! 

     

    Other than using the rim of the drum to force the charging handles back, and his overall a*****e personality,  I didn't see much to object to.   If he toned it down some,  and had put just a touch of thought into it,  it would have been reasonable.   

     

    But about three quarters of guys making stuff for the internet seem to think that they have to SHOUT or try to be aggressively authoritative. 

     

    Oh....breaking the sight off his GeeeLock was dumb.

    I wonder if the guy is knowledgeable enough to know how to load BP!! Likely, there’s no provision for any kind of lube and did they fill the cartridges to the point where the powder was compressed??

     

    And what powder did he use?  I would think Swiss or Schutzen (sp?) FFFFg.  And, as you say,  lube the bullets.  I'd also suggest to lube the bejeebers out of the actions.

    Been witnessing that since the 90s when I was a recycling coordinator for the telephone garage. Cost us 10K just for the cardboard compactor! Everything right down to old poles and hardware had to have separate dumpsters and dramatically different disposal costs. I watched the recycler dump all of them in the same spot at the landfill and the bulldozer just mixed and pushed it around. Still happening locally today. It all looks good, unless you're at the dump!

     

    I watched the trash trucks just dumping the trash and the recycling into the same compartment of the truck.   The only thing that a separate truck has used for was yard waste.

    Could only take a little over 3 minutes of that video.

     

    I gotta admit,  it was hard to watch, and I have a pretty high tolerance for irritating videos.   But I wanted to see if the AK would keep going.
