    It's pretty amusing that some of the same people who take this question seriously also find it scandalous to have any suspicions about the covid vaccine.

    I don't find the Covid Vaccine scandalous at all. I found people calling the coronavirus a "scamdemic" just very annoying, since at that point one of my friends was in an Intensive Care Unit, and was close to death. But he's all good, and I apologize, for being, in your own words, a "religious fanatic". 

     

  2. Here's what I think - 

    For Earth to be the only source of life out billions of other planets in the world, is quite slim. There's gotta be alien life out there. But here's the real question. Do aliens actually want to come into contact with us? If they did, humans and aliens would probably be living together. The earth is 4.5 billion years old!!! If aliens were this interested in us, why hadn't they come previously. And we can't say "because of techonology", because aliens could be far more sophisticated and more intelligent than us. Or they could be, as Strider posted, some, big.... uh THINGS

    We really can't tell if we're going to expect an alien invasion or whatever, because they could be one step ahead of us.

    Those are my thoughts

    This may get a little long. My friend Keith owns some rental property with 2-1/2 acres. A year ago he rented to a Mexican family and the guy seemed to be ok as he was clearing out a lot of the brush and berry bushes plus keeping the placed mowed and trimmed. I had been doing that for Keith and making a little extra money, but I saw that this guy had it covered and I told him to just let him do the work.  Things were cool for some months but a couple months ago I began to get some texts from Keith about this guy. Apparently, he'd been going into the off limits sheds and garages plus an old barn and just helping himself to things that were not his. He then began to abuse the riding mowers, tractor with brush hog and trimmer by pretty much wrecking all of them. He also cannibalized the neighbor's brand new bicycle. He also tried to make Keith pay for unauthorized work he did inside the small house. Keith wasn't having any of it. So, things began to get a bit testy between them. This guy also hassled the girl who's renting the front house. Of course the dickhead denied everything (yes, the riding mower decks removed themselves, the trimmer rope broke itself, etc.) and tensions began to build. So, the girl in the front put in some security cameras because she thought he may also be a peeping tom. The punk must have realized his shenanigans were being watched and he didn't like that. We believe he's an illegal and can barely speak English. A bit over a week ago the security camera got him riding his bike into the driveway, he gets off the bike, grabs a soccer ball, places it on the ground and as hard as he could kicked it towards the garage door and it breaks two of the door windows. You can see him pretty much high fiving himself for that. He had also cleared out an area in the back of the property as his own private little soccer field. 😄 So, us 3 finally went to the police to report this stuff and showed the video of him breaking the windows. The cop seemed to be skeptical even with the video evidence. Yes, officer, we're all here together just flappin' our gums for nothing. So, he took the report and our names and lo and behold not 2 days later the camera catches this chump beating his girlfriend up and pulling her around by her hair and throwing her to the ground. Tut tut, little man. The cops came (including the skeptical one) and a female officer arrested the little asswipe and he didn't like that as you could see him resisting her. Me and Keith then watched him in court yesterday via live streaming. His bail was set at $50,000. Of course he pleaded not guilty. Then, his girlfriend speaks and she starts blubbering about how he needs to be home for the kids, work, and why does he have to stay in jail,  blah, blah, blah. The proscecutor had earlier stated that the video was very disturbing and she did not want him released, period. The judge then told her that more police are killed on domestic violence calls than any other and that he wasn't releasing him on that point and for the protection of her and the police. I doubt seriously she can come up with the 10% bail money. They finally let him speak and he says: Does this mean I can't go home?😆 He's definiteley a dim bulb and we hope they deport his sorry little ass.

    What a fucker. You did a good job helping out your neighbour (I know for sure my neighbours would never do that for me), and getting his stupid, little ass into court. I sure damn hope that he gets deported, but I'm not sure if there's a country that will accept him...

    Well, to be fair Hitler was right, the problem was Hitler. If Hitler would have let his generals command the invasion without his multiple interference, Germany would have taken Moscow and conquered the Soviets by early October. That is not in dispute as every single historian agrees with this. Russia was a rotten house, but it was a rotten house saved by two things: Hitler's stupidity in overriding his generals and changing established plans mid-stream, plus splitting his army groups not once but three times! The second was lend-lease. Lend-lease is what won WWII. Even with Hitler screwing up, without lend-lease the Soviets would have lost. The irony is even though the US did less fighting and had less casualties overall then many of our allies, it was logistics, and manufacturing which won WWII. American logistics and manufacturing to be precise.

    Russia's military is designed for theatre combat only in regard to conventional forces. Only their nukes have offensive capability beyond a few hundred miles and most of their conventional forces, technology wise, are a good 30 years behind the US & NATO. Russia has only been a threat to the US and greater world as a result of their nukes, in a conventional war China would defeat them before the Russians could say Nyet. The only exception to this is their submarine fleet as they are fielding two new subs (one a ballistic missile and one an attack sub) which are two very good subs, particularly the attack sub. Problem is, Russia can't afford them so most likely only a handful will ever make it to completion, nowhere near in enough numbers to make any difference.

    Check out this article, explains it much better than I ever could:

    Not So Scary: This Is Why Russia's Military Is a Paper Tiger | The National Interest

    In my opinion, Hitler could've won WWII if he hadn't stopped the Blitz and invaded the Soviet Union

    Awesome! So glad you are going to step out and get your groove back on. 
     

    Our show last week was a good night out. Music was secondary to hitting downtown for the first time in 1.5 years. I liked the convenience of scanning my phone and having drinks delivered to our “pod”. Liked that we had our own space, with a small table and chairs. Vince Neil came out and did Rock n Roll (the only Zep song played). Guitarist couldn’t handle EVH’s material - which was almost half of the set list. Jason is still getting it done on the skins. Expectations were about equal to performance. It was just great to get out!!

    I know there is extremely low chance, but then...

    The opening song could be Good Times Bad Times and the closing song Stairway to Heaven.

    Hmmmm... to be honest, I think if they did the O2 setlist that would've been good. However, I would've still liked to hear ACL, maybe some acoustic songs, etc. etc. etc.

    Sometimes shit really does just happen. However, there sure is a lot of circumstantial evidence pointing to the possibility of it being staged. For one the towers were made with sub-standard building materials and was due for both inspections and insurance renewal. Supposedly the owner knew this and knew what the inspections would find. It does make sense that a building which was supposedly designed to handle the impact from a fully loaded, fully fueled 707, pancaked and collapsed. Once the truth about the sub-standard steel came out some of the reasoning for the collapse begins to make sense.

    Yeah....

  9. Story Time

    I was with friends and we went to this nice restaurant. There's 6 of us, and I go around asking my friends what they want for drinks. My first response is "mango smoothie". And so I write that down on a slip of paper. Next one is "iced tea". Again, write that on a slip of a paper. Third one is "iced chocolate". And so I again write that down on a slip of paper. 

    Now the final one I am given is a "pink panther with no cream". But I could NOT be bothered to right that down. So I shortened it and this is what I wrote - "PP with no cream". 

    It took me sometime to soon realize how wrong that sounded. 

    Anyways....

    Oh dear the perennial reunion question?

    Firstly they cannot "reunite" as one of the band members died 41 years ago

    Secondly if Robert Plant could sing Immigrant song now, you have as much chance as hearing that as seeing them ever performing. Never, Nil, Nada, Zip, Nowt

    Can we now please drop this question?

    I will answer your questions

    1. Yes

    2. I know that they can't reunite fully - I meant the O2 lineup. 

    3. Look, like I said previously, the chances of a reunion are low as hell. I can imagine Robert singing Immigrant Song, but maybe you can't. 

    4. I do not see what is wrong with the question, so at the moment, no.
