Talk about having a bad day!

The ship Ever Given is still stuck in the Suez Canal. Your package is going to be late.

How the hell is that even possible?

And what is the backhoe going to do about it?


It was stated that 50 ships a day clear the canal and every day these ships are stuck in a massive traffic jam.

Is he saying there is NOTHING that can be done to curtail mass murderers?

I don't want anybody rounding up all my guns, but let me tell you a story my father told me.

I asked why the new shotgun he bought me only held three shells. He explained that it was to give the game a better chance of survival.

Well, maybe we shouldn't allow 30+ shot clips FOR EXACTLY THE SAME REASON.

Also, Mr. Cruz, we are all open to any and all ideas you have to AT LEAST lessen the carnage.

"More perfect" does not mean it's perfect. We can do better than this.

It has been proven that young man is responsible for 87.6% of Qanon content.

I would love to see their sales stats during this Staythefuckathome ordeal.

And right when the hackles were up...

Oh, shit.

^^A11^^

I thought it dead on.

I explained that when I married, turn 25, and made the Dean's List my auto insurance dropped 75%.

A friend of my wife's said, "I would have made the Dean's List except for a D that asshole professor gave me." Then she added, "And I fucked him, too."

You have to wonder what kind of skank pussy that bitch had.

I have an old fashion looking street lamp on my patio. It's wired to a remote-controlled device that's plugged into an outlet on the side of my studio. I wired that outlet to just plug into an outlet on the inside. Well, the remote failed to turn on the lamp so we changed the battery but that didn't help. I then thought the remote device had gone bad and almost ordered one when I remembered ripping out some shelving in my studio. Upon examination, I found that I had, indeed, inadvertently unplugged the outlet. I plugged it back in but the remote still didn't work. I checked the outlet with a clamp light and it worked. I plugged the clamp light into the remote device and it worked as did the on/off remote. But to my dismay, the streetlamp still didn't work. Now I have a guy coming over to check the cord from the remote device to the lamp.

I was faced with a problem I had never faced before. I kept learning about the problem and changed my tactics as I gained knowledge.

That is EXACTLY what Fauci did. When this started he didn't even know covid was air born. And every time he learned something new about the virus he changed his advice - just like he was supposed to.

That is not a weakness. That is science at its best.


ADDED LATER: I heard today that the suggestion to change the 6' separation in schools to 3' was changed because they found out the 6' didn't work anyway. Anybody know anything about that?


But many people gave out very bad advice...

I have a friend who planted six of those on each side of his sidewalk when he first bought his house in the 70s. They are about that big now and walking down the sidewalk is like walking in a steep canyon.

Born in Poland in 1871, to Jewish parents, became a naturalized citizen of Germany in 1899. Murdered and thrown into the Landwehrkanal in Berlin at age 47 for her connection to the Spartacus Uprising of 1919.  Luxemburg pushed the role of women within the internationalist socialist movement of Europe of the early 20th century. In doing that she often opposed existing male forces (in particular Leninist) and didn't fear her enemies while publishing multiple books and papers calling for social reform.  She may be a divisive figure but she fortified the role of women in modern politics with her legendary strong will and narrative brilliance. All that at barely 5 feet tall.

Gewoon Bloot ("Simply Naked") is a new Dutch children's television show featuring a panel of adults who get butt naked and answer questions from kids aged 10 to 12. The program is meant to encourage body positivity. The topics range from "being ashamed of certain body parts or shaving versus waxing." The show hasn't yet aired publicly but, surprise, it's causing quite a controversy. Kids who have previewed the program had mixed reviews.

You might as well prepare yourself for electric vehicles because oil is on the way out.


Some people think that idea makes about as much sense as this:

But my golf cart does that. When coasting the batteries recharge. It also aids in breaking.

Harvesting metal from plants that suck it out of the ground

"Hyperaccumulator" plants grow in metal-rich soil—and suck a huge amount of metal out of the ground. If you cut open the leaf of a hyperaccumulator plant, you get blue-green sap, because it's fully 25% nickel. That's an astonishingly high concentration; it's higher than the ore that goes into a nickel smelter. This leads to a fun idea: What if, instead of mining rare minerals the traditional way—digging into the ground, a technique that requires tons of energy and damages the local ecosystem—you farmed them?

Why Isn't Fish Considered Meat During Lent?

Legend has it that centuries ago a medieval pope with connections to Europe's fishing business banned red meat on Fridays to give his buddies' industry a boost. But that story isn't true. Sunday school teachers have a more theological answer: Jesus fasted for 40 days and died on a Friday. Catholics honor both occasions by making a small sacrifice: avoiding animal flesh one day out of the week. That explanation is dandy for a homily, but it doesn't explain why only red meat and poultry are targeted and seafood is fine.

For centuries, the reason evolved with the fast. In the beginning, some worshippers only ate bread. But by the Middle Ages, they were avoiding meat, eggs, and dairy. By the 13th century, the meat-fish divide was firmly established—and Saint Thomas Aquinas gave a lovely answer explaining why: sex, simplicity, and farts.


Bojangles has a fish sandwich now and it is wonderful.

A Sad Tale

The husband clings to the side of the truck for 19 miles after the truck crashed into his motorcycle in Brazil and killed his wife.

The truck driver collided with Anderson Pereira and his wife Sandra’s bike. Sandra was left dead while Anderson was stuck on the side of the truck for 19-miles.

 The 36 years old driver was suspected of being under the influence of drugs.

The Green door is between the Black door and the White door and the Grey door is between White and Red doors. From this we have:

Black; Green; White; Grey; Red.

Blue is two doors from White and next to the Black door, so now we have:

Blue; Black; Green; White; Grey; Red.

We know we start with a Blue door and not the Red, because we are told the Red door isn't first in the row.

The Brown door is last in the row, giving the complete sequence:

Blue; Black; Green; White; Grey; Red; Brown.

A15 Is it just me? The first thing I would check is to see if the bulb is burned out.

Dear Inchworm A15,
I neglected to mention that the lamp post has six bulbs and the chances they all went out at the same time is remote.

Dear Mr. Harris,
Be nice or your comments will never see the light of day.
