Eh, Dean Wormer, my dear fellow. But your point is solid.

It’s not going to matter.

When I lived in the UK, the English told me that the easiest way to figure out if someone was American and not Canadian was to wait 5 seconds.

If this were only funny.

I guess Ford will be sued by Chrysler now. Their pickups look very much the same-- four wheels, cab, open space to hold cargo, hood, engine, etc. Blatant knockoff.

Which is why a yacht made from the bones of humans is the next thing on their lists.

Shit, why would anyone buy one of these?

In some cases, they’ll not just take your card, but your ID.

“Alexa, describe the mudshark in your mythology.”

It’s not stocks I’m afraid of. It’s the crooks that run the system.

Mrs. Jabroni and I play a game called “ID4 Survival”, where you watch Independence Day (the first one please), and every time Jeff Goldblum stammers, you take a shot (we prefer vodka, but please, explore). It’s a pretty short-lived game as we tend to run out of vodka pretty quickly.

The link-click-display functionality is adequate.

In other countries, where mobile data and telecomms aren’t quite as deliberately behind the times, is is possible to ditch an ISP?

I used to work for a Big Mapping Company that did a lot of crowdsourcing. The info we got was like a crime tips hotline— usually decent information, but not always accurate. Our vetting process included on-site checks wherever possible.

I enjoy podcasts, but not when I’m working or painting. The human voice when I’m concentrating is really distracting.

Adding the draft menu at The Firkin, Libertyville, IL.  They do the aforementioned IPAs plus stouts, porters, sours, fruit beers... pretty long list if you include the bottled selection too.  Food is good. I love their lobster tacos.

Props to LBBC. It’s the size of a postage stamp, but it’s very good.

Yep. One of the reasons I’ve gone to drinking hard booze. IPAs are lovely and all, but... too many!

NERDFOAM!!!!!!!!

A distinction without a difference.
