Beowulfsfriend replies on Apr 30, 2019:

The whole "socialist" picture is a bad painting of a mostly untrue scenario. Maduro is a dirty leader, making millions off illegal drugs,with a handful of his cronies. If the country were truly socialist there would be more shared wealth. Maduro is acting more like a,true capitalist. True that he needs to go, but the US has no right to pick their leader.

I don't make a big deal out of male circumcision. I know it isn't totally benign, but there are too many other issues in the world. Female genital mutilation and eary sex assignment for children and babies are things that MUST be stopped. If male circumcision were used to control an entire gender,...

Beowulfsfriend replies on Apr 30, 2019:

@jorj there is not a correlation between the two procedures. One is genital mutilation and the other is an iffy at best procedure that has little effect, aside from possible childhood trama, etc And, no I'm not "cool" with "cutting" up children. You are getting precariously close to the anti abortionists who say I want to kill their grandchildren.

They could still cull the geese, but PETA was keeping quiet as long as the meat went to the homeless. So now the city has two problems: more cost to feed the homeless and less resources to do so; and more dangerous flying conditions (remember, that is what brought down the flight in Washington D.C.)

You could have sued in small claims and won. If you had the contract and that is what it said. Doesn't matter if, what, however. They made a vow and a claim. Too bad your mom paid. Don't know if it is too late to sue or not. A number of years ago a guy bought a funeral with a horse drawn carriage etc way back when and held on to the policy. He hit his eighties, went to check things out and the funeral home, since it still existed, said they would honor it as best that they could, but certain things would be too expensive. He won the suit. Basic business law.

@Allamanda I'm sure much if what is donated isn't worth using. On the other side, I've seen things changed to make some donations harder to do, especially here in the US for the homeless. Side story: about 12 years ago I was at a Pep Boys and overheard a conversation - an African fellow stopped by and wanted to know if they could donate used tires. The manager said it wasn't legal; then he said something I did not expect. He told the man when the garbage pick up came and said if the tires piled up to be taken disappeared the night before he wouldn't know or say anything about them leaving early. Sad that people have to "break the law" to help others.

@Allamanda There is enough of a need that institutions are actively seeking people. And paying a token shipping fee. The groups have the option to opt out - too badly damaged body, possibly too many in the system at the time, contagion, etc. I think, as an off theory, that with the rise of body "farms" for forensic research (which have long waiting list oddly) may have lessened the bodies available for medical research. Just a thought. There is also the fellow (German maybe) who plasticises bodies - his list is way long.

I am far from blind on the Saud family and the nation of Wahabbis (the sect of Islam guilty of creating and funding more terrorism in the name of Islam than any others by far.) I could, without looking, give you a laundry list of their evil acts. Putting any trust into them is a fool's errand. They have no respect for the US and view us as their lap dog in the Mideast.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Apr 27, 2019:

Here is an irony - both Iran's and Saudi Arabia's governments suck and if you visit either be careful. Now, remember, the Sauds are our friends, but, for many who visit there tourists are not very welcome - especially American infidel military. Now, if you visit Iran, and can avoid the govenment and their secret spies most visitors will be welcomed and shown a good time. And they are our enemies. Most of the "protests" and effigy burnings that occur in Iran happen when government workers are "given" a day off and paid to go protest for the cameras. Personally, I have no desire to visit either nation, not in these times at least. A few decades back I went through Oman and that was not an inviting place.

I never enforced the dress code when teaching. Especially for young women. Hell no. I would, if asked, tell a student if he or she were out of code, but not my damn business. I had more important things to do. Besides, when I worked briefly at a Catholic school, I always let my hair hang just over my collar because I had no official dress code and boys couldn't let their hair touch their collars. There are times when a dress code can be used in a good manner. In some of the inner city schools where there is an abundance of gang activity a dress code can avoid those dangers of colors. A dress code can, also, if the school helps pay for the uniforms or to defray their costs, then the use of uniforms can help keep poorer students from getting involved in peer pressure dressing "wars" This texan code is absolutely asinine. They are probably assholes who will use such a thing to waste county money by insisting that child protective services investigate parents who wont show up because they can not dress properly.

And I thought I was done, went to an auction and got a sweat old pre 61 Stella for 30 dollars; I couldn't resist at such a cheap cost - I can give it away for that and it will still hold a tune.

A pretty mixed group of folks getting along. Just that one oddity, which I saw at the pledge - possibly many of the others not removing their caps were uninformed or liberal.

There has been extensive testing of St. John's Wort and it worked no better than a placebo. This is not a bad thing, as you are getting the relief you need from the placebo effect.

Most likely as I was on a very low dose of meds by the time I shifted. Life changes and therapy have been more useful the past few years. Not needing a hospital has been great.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Apr 19, 2019:

Penn seems to me to be a big dick stuck on his ego. Anyway, in the early 80's I met a large group of Satanists in San Diego, leader based in Coronado Island. All fine upstanding citizens who liked helping the needy, etc. They had Great weed. My assessment of them was: they aren't much different than more or less liberal xtions, only coming at things from a different angle. Needless to say, I didn't want to join them either. Did I mention, they had Great pot.

YES. Loved them. And, they were created before Oreos. Once Nabisco bought up Sunshine Bisquits, they ended Hydrox. Poor Sunshine, once the second largest cookie manufacturer in the US before Keebler came along. Then some bad moves and bottomed out.

Beowulfsfriend replies on Apr 12, 2019:

Seth Rich got murdered because he was assisting in the running of a child sex ring that wouldn't admit Catholic priests in as members and the Vatican sent one of their assassins to knock him off as a message and warning. To cover any possible news coverage a number of public shootings and attacks,were staged using actors to portray victims. Luckily for those astute people, like the poster here, Alex Jones and others saw through the entire setup. Those in charge at the DNC have signaled to their alien, lizard overlords who will soon be cloning a new and inventive candidate to run in the next election.

Black and Hispanic gangs don't "rat" either and lots are sitting in jails. Lots of possible charges here that wouldn't have taken another witness. Cops had videos, did searches, and had prints.
