United States of America — President* Biden signed an executive order earlier today instructing all municipalities to replace their racist statues of white people with a statue of George Floyd robbing a pregnant woman in homage to the pillar of social justice.
“This is an important step in removing the immoral history of this country and moving forward to a more just future,” Biden said in a brief statement after signing the executive order.
Good Night All and sleep well. Stuff in the news tomorrow will be mostly exultation about the latest hoo-rah involving Donald Trump. A pox on the media and the Democrat Party that is much dumber than a real-live donkey ever could be. 🙂
I think this is about the fourth one that I have owned…
Had to replace my Timex watch. They only last 8-10 years these days. I was just glad they still offered the same one.
I noticed on the packaging that the movement is manufactured in the Philippines and the watch is also assembled there. Only the leather watchband comes from China.
Here’s a pic of the white supremacist wooden dummy enjoying his white privilege while relaxing on a private stretch of beach and forgetting where he is and who he is. my only wish is that 5000 boats packed with hordes of illegal aliens would’ve crashed and swarmed the beach and left every piece of refuse they had littering the beach… Read more »

Thanks.
Bsue – I’ve seen “John in Bibs” name in passing. I’ll have to see what he has. Phil had a video that I saw today about FD fruit – it’s best to put it into jars, or at least not vacuum pack the mylar bags. Vacuum packing the bags crushes the fruit and turns it from slices to chunks. There’s… Read more »
Collapsing commercial real estate. Labor problems. Not enough replacement babies. Unprecedented government corruption. Liars running the monetary system.
China and the USA, two peas in a pod.
Hey TedTam – you familiar with John in Bibs on YouTube??? He’s got some really interesting looking recipes with FreezeDrying videos – one includes creamy coleslaw, which I didn’t think possible but he says it still has some crunch when it’s reconstituted… Anyway here’s a link (not sure whether it’s the recipe/video or the channel…) https://youtu.be/3Jia4YQHcnM
My #33 I should add that the story I had would never happen in a smaller private company.
Texpat @ 7:53, When I first discovered this I was shocked but then I got to thinking about how much Lockheed and the government likes to hire minorities and that a lot of the “Boat People” became engineers so it kind of made sense to me. Remember Lockheed would hire a female, black, Asian or any other so called minority… Read more »
#30 Texpat, Seems the liberals have not yet totally spread the word to their cohort that they really, really want to avoid the 5th Circuit Court in New Orleans if possible. Dingbats and those who make things up as they go along do not amuse the Justices on that Bench. Neither does assaulting the US Constitution. When they do that… Read more »

My dogs would almost fight over the water bowl when I would put a bunch ice cubes in there during the summer.
28 Super Dave When you think about it, it makes perfect sense but I was floored when I found out. I don’t why anyone should know a common Vietnamese last name would be the most found at Lockheed, but I do know the Vietnamese people very resourceful and very smart. I remember back when the Houston Chronicle would publish all… Read more »
MHarper is an oil baroness but doesn’t want to deal with the paperwork. 😛
I mentioned the Missouri vs Biden lawsuit filed in Louisiana over the weekend and 5th Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Don Willett. What happened is the Chief Judge of the Western U.S. District of Louisiana, Terry Doughty, issued a broad injunction from his bench in Shreveport prohibiting virtually the entire federal government from so much as winking or nodding at… Read more »
Somehow I forgot to say HI this morning. I had a mission, and I got on it until I solved it. I’m still having people in West Texas contacting me about leasing or buying from me some of the mineral rights that I didn’t know had been left in my name. Frankly, I wish I had never even heard about… Read more »

Back to my #11 this morning, I don’t know if anyone saw my post or even cared but the answer is; Nguyen, on or about 2000 there were 14 Nguyen’s in Lockheed’s phone book the next most surname was smith with 9, I think. I don’t remember where Johnson fit in but it was in the top 10. When you… Read more »
Quick drive-by, we had another great day on the beach and we’re getting ready to head over to Pineapple Willy’s in an hour or so. Today the youngest granddaughter said something about wanting to go home, first time she has mentioned anything like that but they got here last Wednesday so it’s understandable. The girls sure have had a good… Read more »
That makes me feel better about putting ice cubes in the dog’s water then. 😀
Downloaded every .mp3 Oliver has available on Amazon a couple hours ago. He’s good. As in writing the anthems of a movement good.

Rolling Stone is so predictable.
We have one of those extra large pottery crock-type underplates about 20″ in diameter with sides high enough to fill the water 3″ deep. All the birds and critters bathe in it and drink from it. The birds that use it the most are the robins and we discovered robins have some kind of condition that drives them to bathe… Read more »
#23 We saw a possum last nite trying to get brave enough to come up on our front ramp (with us sitting there on the porch) – where I normally have a large potted plant with a self-watering “fill spout/cup” on the side of the base – looking for a drink of water. It’s been so hot that we brought… Read more »
I keep a tub of water out for the bluejays and other critters. In the past, any water I leave out would get a lot of attention. I think it’s too dang hot for even the bluejays to venture out, even if the tub is shaded most of the day. I do see a few towards the evening, but that’s… Read more »
Bsue – I usually can’t do tortilla soups because they aren’t keto friendly, though they are delicious. I may have shared a recipe, though.
Our back yard is at 102 and 41% humidity; front yard is 96 and 51% humidity. All that is serenaded by Old Glory swaying with some vigor on the front porch. We only have wandering clouds filled with not much passing through. But the repaired sprinkler system has done its overnight job so all the areas of lawn get a… Read more »
Tedtam, I stumbled across a recipe I thought you might like for chicken tortilla soup (to can – with tweaks to FD)… but as I typed that, I seem to remember you having/sharing a recipe for same with me??? Or was that for something else???
Tonya (sp?) Chutkan is the judge overseeing the Trump case in DC. Trump is demanding her recusal and change of venue. He believes, rightly so, that he can not get a fair trial in a district that voted 98% for Biden. The judge also worked for David Bois law firm, which should have resulted in an automatic recusal.
18 Bonecrusher China has a lot of economic problems most people don’t talk about. They also have a huge labor problem now. As their rapidly aging population is also declining, the demographic of child-bearing age women has shrunken due to government policy, the younger generations entering the workforce don’t want to work in factories anymore. Older Chinese were grateful for… Read more »
For climate warriors and enviro-radicals, the science (their science, anyway) is always “settled.” That is, until it isn’t. The latest backtrack? Turns out there’s less plastic in the oceans than claimed. Far less. Per a new study in the journal Nature Geoscience, just 500,000 metric tons of plastic end up in the world’s oceans each year, not the 8 million… Read more »
Country Garden just confirmed the ‘worst fears’ about China’s property market
This is a bigger default looming that the Evergreen/Evergrande or whatever it was called about 18 months ago.
I expect China to engage in some real dirty tricks to attempt to dodge this cannon ball.
Good Afternoon (barely) Hamsters, Today is a Skinny Chron Newspaper day, meaning the print shrinks on some articles to make room for squeezing in more articles on less newsprint than on Sunday’s paper. Perhaps other Hamsters have also noticed this skippedy-doo-da tendency periodically showing up. As for varying legibility of the newsprint on the same page causes wonderment as to… Read more »
How far away are we from this?
This is one section of a report for the Center for Immigration Studies: If the events portrayed in Sound of Freedom are not to be believed because its lead actor is weird or its backers too “right-wing” and Christian, the events described by the Biden Department of Justice in yet another very recent case should do just as well to… Read more »
I got my treadmill time in, and while I was cooling off, pulled out my sauces recipe book and made a batch of Caribbean garlic sauce. It be tangy and delicious!

DOJ eyeing Americans ‘like ATMs,’ spending over $6 billion to aid civil asset forfeitures, watchdog says
I can’t believe that civil asset forfeitures are legal in any way, shape or form, absent a trial and due process. It is nothing but government sanctioned theft.
Ben Shapiro has irritated me in the past with the way he does things even though we agree on substance. There is a battle going on right now between him and YouTube (Google) over his newest video expose series on the international censorship and control of 90% of advertising revenue around the world. YouTube on Friday reversed course and halted… Read more »
This is one of the wilder stories to emerge over the weekend. Marion is a small town in central Kansas, less than 2,000 people. The newly hired police chief and his entire force of four officers executed a search warrant and seized files, computers, phones and other devices from the local newspaper offices and the home of the owner.… Read more »
More from the S&U Department, Statistical Division I follow Dr. William Makis, who has made a side career out of tracking ‘died suddenly’ deaths.

Since I’m not keeping up I missed any discussion about surnames over the weekend but here is an interesting tidbit. Back about 2000 some guys were talking and wondering at lunchtime about what was the most popular surname at Lockheed so we got out the phone book and you wouldn’t believe what name came up most, can you guess? Test… Read more »
Next up, Australia has folks trying to stop future gene jabs: Australia’s Umbrella News reported yesterday on a July lawsuit filed Down Under seeking to enjoin all further distribution of the modRNA jabs, headlined “COVID vaccines and your DNA: What the science tells us (and what it doesn’t).” The case was filed in the Federal Court of Australia by Victoria… Read more »

I have a NASA buddy that is TDY for 6 weeks in the Seattle area, Bangor Trident Base, and it was 70 there yesterday. Not a bad time to be there I guess. FWIW; He’s from Pasadena and started at JSC and the only way he could get a promotion at Jacobs was to move to White Sand NM. He… Read more »
I saw this headline elsewhere over the weekend: families are suing EcoHealth, et al, for the WLR damages to their lives and families. Over the last couple years, military contractor and bioweapons-moneysink EcoHealth Alliance and its shady president, Peter Daszak, have been shown to be up to their dirty little necks in the early pre-pandemic coronavirus gain-of-function research in Wuhan,… Read more »

Amen to that. Also you do know that possums can’t get rabies, right?
