First?
Wake up you slackers!

Good morning Hamsters. Coolish 72 but pleasant. Forecast through the weekend doesn’t look wonderful.

The two fugitives are still on the loose. So they say every ten minutes or so. The new twist to the story is the woman who probably helped them is a ‘serial cheater’. Bet by the end of it all some abusive husband will be the cause of this and he will get the chair.

#3 Goatman: I saw a pic of her on Fox this morning and yikes, she is a 2 bagger. Not as fugly as Rosa DeLauro but close. I wonder just how she could be a serial cheater, further, what kind of a schlemiel is her husband?

The notion that we should simply trust the Rs or the Ds because they are “our team” is absurd. The want us to wait till its passed till we can know all the details of what is in the bill. Chris Salcedo on am700 this morning spoke of a chapter that would change our immigration laws or put them completely under the discretion of the POTUS. Not no but HE11 WISSIN NO!

I, for one, am glad that we have a president with sufficient gravitas, experience, credibility, and strategic worldview to handle the current events in the Middle East.
Forward!
From behind!

Most Americans think of New York City as teeming with bankers, stock traders, pretentious restaurants, obnoxious Upper East Side liberals, Upper West Side Commie Jewish pedophiles like Woody Allen, hip hop thugs and perfectly coiffed cable news babblers as well as utterly self-absorbed fashion industry morons.
NYC is a far more interesting, economically diverse and creative place than known because the MSM don’t believe it’s glamorous.
A mere 25 years ago, the Yard stood as a perfect symbol of the ruins of the American working class, its 40 or so structures strewn like industrial carcasses from a Mad Max movie. The buildings—used then by a smattering of small manufacturing firms and as warehouses—endured regular blackouts, stuck elevators, and roads so cratered that truckers dubbed the area “Dodge City.” Occasional wild dogs and dead bodies—suspected mob hits—completed a scene that was more film noir than economic hub.
Enter through one of the five gates of the Yard today, though, and you’ll find scores of young companies like SITU humming with deliveries, projects, plans, and digital machinery. The Yard is now home to 330 small to medium-size manufacturing firms employing 7,000 workers—double the total of 15 years ago. Many of the companies are traditional or “analog” in their approach, but firms emerging out of the local north Brooklyn design, crafts, and tech scene—or the “maker movement,” as it’s sometimes known—come to the Yard every day looking for vacancies that don’t exist.
Thank Rudy Giuliani for saving the historic Brooklyn Navy Yard.

Just so that you all know, I was up early this morning and had the opportunity to post “first.” but as a matter of public courtesy, I left the position open for someone else. No need to thank me, because I’m sure that I will abuse the privilege at some time in the future.

Morning, fellow Couchsters. I am fresh home from Mem-Hermann NW after my 3rd colonoscopy. Today’s catch was 2 polyps, bagged up and off to the lab. I am observing that the older I get, the more onerous the colon cleanse prep becomes. I just had a little food and now I’m exhausted.

mharper42, wishing you the best possible report—nothing found.

That’s a really encouraging piece about revival in NYC. Amazing the new businesses can get off the ground with Democrat-run NYC’s income tax and other taxes, Democrat-run state’s income taxes and regs, and whatever deviltry the Democrat-run feds inject into the free market.

This is a textbook case of what happens when a country refuses to live within its means and decides to monetize the debt incurred.
HEADLINE: As currency dies, Zimbabweans will get $5 for 175 quadrillion local dollars

Not to depress anyone but it occurs to me we’ve all known each so long we have completed the transition from young vibrant movers and shakers shaping and rocking the political world to now telling Paw Paw stories.
-
Paw Paw stories and colonoscopies! Some of us are old fogeys. 🙁

At one time the LST/Hampster vote was one of the most sought after, now they’re out there trying to steal our Social Security checks.

Yup, the immigration part is one thing. Then there’s this also. If I had to put a bet down right now on whether or not TPP will go through I’m betting on yes, it will. Whenever they start talking bipartisan support that’s your cue to grab your ankles. Strike that. Basically whenever politicians talk period that’s your cue, but this is a particularly egregious example.

It was getting cloudy around here so I looked at the radar and saw lots of little rainy spots on it, some that look like they could grow into something significant. Guess our dry spell is coming to a close for several days. The flowerbeds need watering, but they don’t need a deluge.

I really like the idea of “born, raised and slaughtered” origin labels. What could possibly happen other than the consumer being able to make a more educated choice in which products he buys?
Without the labels, how are we supposed to be able to tell where a bad batch of meat comes from? We are supposed to be pro-choice right? Why not let the consumer choose to buy meat where it its origin labeled? Ditto that with GMO foods, let the consumer decide. -
The following came from the IT guy who takes care of the computers at Mrs. Bonecrusher’s company.
Ransomware Virus Making A Comeback
DO NOT OPEN or RUN programs from the web that you are not INTENDING to run – just because the web says you need an update does not mean it’s true.
DO NOT OPEN or RUN attachments in EMAIL that you are NOT expecting.
Crypto/Encrypts — These are NOT viruses and change DAILY so very difficult to catch – before they run their course. The program runs in the background opening and closing files and encrypting them with an offsite code.
via Wikipedia:
This ransomware trojan targeted computers running Microsoft Windows, believed to have first been posted to the Internet on 5 September 2013. CryptoLocker propagated via infected email attachments, and via an existing botnet; when activated, the malware encrypts certain types of files stored on local and mounted network drives using RSA public-key cryptography, with the private key stored only on the malware’s control servers. The malware then displays a message which offers to decrypt the data if a payment (through either Bitcoin or a pre-paid cash voucher) is made by a stated deadline, and threatened to delete the private key if the deadline passes. If the deadline is not met, the malware offered to decrypt data via an online service provided by the malware’s operators, for a significantly higher price in Bitcoin.You will see files in the folders with DECRYPT_INSTRUCTION – at this point there are only two options – either restore from backup – or pay the ransom.
USE YOUR SERVERS for your files; if you are on our maintenance plans, we verify backups weekly – if you are storing files on your local pc’s let us know – we can assist in moving the files off to the server as he run redundant backups. OR purchase a cloud based backup solution for the local pc –
DataTech resells carbonite at cost for local pc’s. We can also provide external hard drives and local pc backup imaging software to backup personal computers – this process cannot be encrypted and we can simply restore the computer to the previous day.
Isn’t holding things taken by force for ransom a crime? Why doesn’t the FBI get involved and track down the source of these malware producers? Where does the money go, surely they can track that and apprehend those that receive the funds – can’t they??
This kind of garbage goes on because the FBI allows it to go on or it simply is not enough of a crime (not enough headlines and funding) for them to care. -
Nevertheless, while Russian bombers have substantially increased the number of times they are “buzzing” American airspace and testing our defenses this year (along with those of a number of European nations), the United States Air Force has now developed a winning strategy. Mind you, not a strategy to counteract Russian bomber incursions or for the defeat of ISIS, but rather, our Air Force has now officially eased its discharge policy on transgenders in conjunction with “Gay Pride Month.”

IF they can actually physically locate them.
IF they also happen to be located in the US or a geographical area that has amicable law enforcement agreements with the US
-
IF they can actually physically locate them.
FOLLOW THE MONEY! This requires the victim to alert the FBI and coordinate the action so that the feds can be there and nab the perps.

That’s all swell and all, but if the miscreant is in Vladivostok, you’re prolly not gonna see much happen.

Bambi is back today, a grounds keeper was edging the sidewalk so I got him to shut down the racket and showed him where the little guy was and he said he’d come back later so as to not disturb him.

Recently I made fun of the small size of the Whopper Jr.
Well guess what? The Whataburger Jr. is now also the size of a hockey puck.Both for the 2005 price of the regular burger.
-
#27 – Wow You get a hockey puck too? COOL!! 🙂
-
#27, 28: Way back in the late 70’s when I sort of attended SFA, the hamburgers served in the cafeteria were referred to as hockey pucks.
-
Just so they aren’t the consistency of a hockey puck. 🙂

Consistency, appearance and taste. Worst food I ever was sentenced to eat was in that cafeteria. There were signs in the dorm bathroom that said:
FLUSH TWICE, ITS A LONG WAY TO THE CAFETERIA
Actually that was being charitable.
-
I noticed all foods getting smaller- pies, cakes, even dinner plates. Or it could be just me since our plates are from my grandma. And we ate on them as kids….

Dude.
Those signs were showing up in Army latrines back in 1972, ‘cept they said “Mess Hall”.
I’m fairly certain they started showing up around 1942 or so—–

Vile traitorous scumbag Tom Daschle in being paid by Japan to push Obamatrade, Trent “the wuss” Lott is also in on the deal. If those two slime buckets are for it, that is plenty of reason to be against it. If it is such a great deal for the US consumer, why do they have to keep it so secret?

I don’t even know what to suggest as punishment for this stupid gal.

Katfish isn’t really a hockey puck he just plays one on TV.

21 Bones – thanks for the jinx. Just had a fellow
worker get this. Tech guy said to either chunk the computer
or completely erase the hard drive and re-install everything.
Looks like Office Depot gets more of our money to do all the cleaning. -
We may need to consider a wall along the FLA border too.

Back in my younger days I loved going to Arby’s and getting their regular roast beef, it was huge and with fries would fill up a young man, and that took a lot. Living in in 5 different states and 6 cities in 7 years, I lost touch, I guess because they were in some places and not others? Anywho, about 25 years ago I went to Arby’s for the first time in years and was surprised how pitiful they were, didn’t go again for a while and then went back and started getting their bigger sammiches, I still stop by there once in a while. FWIW; Roast beef IS more expensive than the horse meat served at Mc Donald’s. AND I still love Whatta’ Burger, the best fast food burger ever, even beats Hardee’s, BUTT, nobody beats Hardee’s sausage biscuits.

Can we leave the beaches open? 😕

CFree: I think a great punishment for a perp of such schemes starts with a 4lb maul vigorously applied to all the joints in the fingers and hands.
-
Bones – couldn’t agree more – two hours out of my day that I’ll never get back (so far anyways).

#12 Adee
Thank you for the good wishes. I do expect a clean report, but I accept the wisdom of checking. -
Is Hardee’s and Carl’s the same thing?
-
Getting a light rain here, much welcomed as I hate to hand-water with the hose.

One time, when Hubby-to-be and I were heading to the MSC Cafeteria on the TAMU campus to eat dinner, he asked me what was on the menu.
“Today is Thursday, so it’ll be spaghetti and soybean pellets,” I replied.
Hubby almost fell over laughing right there in front of the Academic Building.
-
I’ve had some pretty decent food at MSC. Perhaps it has improved since you were there?

PSA?
Under 2, last time they checked.

#49 The only musical act I recognize is Hays Carll.

This is the reason I’ll say I’m voting for her if a pollster calls me, even though I’ll be voting for Cruz. She needs to stay in this race and put out more commercials like this.

#53 – Go Carly GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
