Absconded!

I’d be looking for property in another state and moving my family as soon as possible!! It will take years for this legislation to be adjudicated and I don’t have the time, money, or inclination to go through the process of contesting this, especially since I would probably be doing it from a prison cell!!

It ain’t the worst I’ve heard! It IS better than a lot of the garbage that is force fed to us by the “music moguls” recently.
Let’s get back to the task at hand!

I’m deep off into the Blues genre, from Robert Johnson to Sonny Boy Williams and from Eric Clapton to The Allman Brothers Band!
I’ll take a bit of well orchestrated Jazz and a healthy helping of non mainstream Country, (read that Dwight Yoakum or the Marshall Tucker Band) and then fill the basket with Classic Rock’n’ Roll!
Rap, techno, and today’s versions of Rock and Country are seldom, if ever, worth the wavelength needed to reproduce them, for me.
And I enjoy old time big band music now and then too!

In the context of the story Rebel Rouser is correct.
Rabble Rouser does not accurately describe the man in the story.
Nor is it correct with respect to the title of the song referenced!!-

It WOULD be better if these changes were codified by legislation. Better yet, they need to be settled in the judiciary!
None the less, they are indeed wins for our side!!

Definitely a useful tool, provided it is kept up to date!
At the rate things change over even a short period of time, it’s essential that these sources are kept “up to the minute” up to date.

Skipped out?

Some people have had moderate success with soaking in acetone or MEK, (methyl ethyl ketone peroxide). It’ll take a while if it works and won’t do well on non metallic parts. Those compounds dissolve plastics.
Follow the handling instructions on these solvents religiously!

To be devoutly avoided!

It’s a start…

You shouldn’t even be able to make a story like this up! It should be impossible!!
When the cretins are put back in the population, it should be required that they live with the individuals who come up with this garbage!!

Being the NUMBER ONE source of disinformation within the narrative, these people and organizations should take the advice of Archie Bunker and “STIFLE YOURSELVES!!”

Feeling some better this morning. Still heavy chest congestion but it’s clearing up gradually.
Gotta try to get better control over it ‘cause the grandson stays with us this weekend.

Here’s a brief summary of the American possession of the Phillippines:
The Philippines was a territory of the United States from 1898 to 1946, acquired following the Spanish-American War and recognized as independent on July 4, 1946. Known as the American colonial period, it functioned as an unincorporated territory (Insular Government) until it became a self-governing Commonwealth in 1935, aimed at transitioning to full sovereignty.
Key Aspects of U.S. Rule (1898–1946)
Acquisition: Spain ceded the Philippines to the U.S. for $20 million via the 1898 Treaty of Paris.
Conflict: The Philippines-American War (1899–1902) followed, where Filipino nationalists sought independence.Governance: The U.S. implemented an Insular Government (1899-1935) and later a Commonwealth (1935-1946) to prepare for independence.
Independence: On July 4, 1946, the U.S. formally recognized the Republic of the Philippines as an independent nation through the Treaty of Manila.
Lasting Influence: The US left a significant impact on education, government systems, and high English proficiency in the Philippines.
Why it didn't become a State
Distance & Politics: The Philippines was distant, with a large population and, according to historians, many in the U.S. were against integrating a foreign population.
Desired Independence: Filipinos continuously fought for sovereignty, not incorporation.
Fillipinos were considered “non citizen American nationals”. They could not serve as jurors or vote in federal elections, but could travel freely in all parts of the country and could work and live anywhere in the US without permits or visas.
American Samoa is one current example of this type of personal status.
