It could be wished that some of these ultra biased individuals would see the writing on the wall and decide to vacate their positions!!!
They love wielding the power. When have tyrants "seen the writing" and stepped down?

Let's hope. I knew that the 9th is stacked against civil rights, I didn't know that it went back that far.

They have certainly gilded the lily in this piece!!
Pet peeve time:
"Therefore, to be possess'd with double pomp,
To guard a title that was rich before,
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess."-

Here it gets pushed one day.
Related: the county dump is only closed about 5 days a year, one of them being Easter Sunday. More often than not I don't take notice of it because Pascha (Orthodox Easter) usually isn't the same day. About 30 years ago, on what happened to be Easter Sunday, but was the 3rd Sunday of Lent, some of us went after church to help someone get rid of things. I was going to haul it to the dump in my pickup. Loaded up, tarped and tied, headed down to the county dump. Gate was locked Checked the time. Nope, about an hour before closing. My wife pointed to the sign listing the days it was closed. "Easter Sunday." We looked at each other, "Is that today?" Yep.

I remember when the Estes catalogs had all their little Technical Manuals in the center, separating the kits from the parts, launchers, control boxes and such.
Those short, simple explanations and tips were great.
I looked at the online catalog a few years ago. Except for balsa sheets for fins, no balsa parts.
The time it took to sand, apply filler coat, let it dry, sand, apply the next coat, and so on, finally getting down to 1500 grit. A good way for a 10 year old to learn patience. And the price you pay in time if you try to rush some things.
Now it seems that all the nose cones, reducers, etc. are plastic.

I just realized, the guy works in San Francisco!!! That means he has to be up by 0400 to be at the office by 0800. Unless he can afford to live in San Francisco.

Great times! I usually bought from Centuti. Got really stoked when California law changed to make it doable here. The day it went into effect I cycled down to the fire department to get the permit.
Learned more trigonometry playing with them than I did in school.

Considering a business - drone delivered cases of MREs to residents of CA food deserts. Energy and water will be problematic.
Resorting to California bashing.

Without serving, they do not have a business. See California. Astounding reduction in businesses. I will never do business with an operation that refuses currency. I don't believe I am alone in that.
And that's their choice.
And, true, you aren't alone. But that so many places are cashless and thriving says that that the tiny portion of 1% who feel that way don't make a huge impact on their bottom line.

We had hit Safeway yesterday for more eggnog. Got there around 1030, Parking lot was almost full. They were out of eggnog except some high end stuff at about $7/quart.
I went back today at 0630. The stuff we wanted was back on the shelves, with the coupon $5/half gallon. I can't make it for that. And it's a great base for french toast or bread pudding.
Parking lot was half full, but people were in a good mood.

Nope. Not until Theophany at the earliest. Hard-core traditionalists hold out until Candlemas/Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple.
