That was covered nicely in a Shel Silverstein poem...
"If you're a bird, be an early bird; and catch that worm for your breakfast plate. If you're a bird, be an early early bird. But if you're a worm, sleep late."
Well, if I ever had to get back into the rat race, I think it would be impossible for me to have a resume that would not clearly give a good guess at my age...
I would have to have stuff like my first assignment being the AutoDIN switching center at Tinker AFB, OK, as a system operator; and for employment history, it would show USAF from 10-86 to around 03-90 (need to dig out my first DD214 to see exactly).
And on top of that, there would have been all the combat comm stuff done in the Air National Guard from like 1993 through October 2010.
At least it would be safe enough to omit the Sperry UNIVAC and the Honeywell mainframes we trained on at Keesler as systems I have had some experience on.:D
The air waves are owned by We the People. We the People grant the carriers the privilege of managing this public resource. That privilege can be suspended or outright revoked at any time.
It would have been extremely amusing if some major Verizon owned facilities had then been lost to the fires before the fire department could pay Verizon more to be unthrottled...
So, when arriving in Australia and the Customs guys ask if you have any criminal history (if they ask such a thing), is asking back, "Is that still a requirement?" safe or unwise?
Check out the recently shut down IP43 that was making a lot of headway here before these traitors gave up. It made zero provisions for grandfathering in pieces residents of Oregon already had; and making one a felon by default if they did not remove affected weapons out of state or otherwise destroyed them. That would have been ex post facto.
And one thing you have to remember; here in Oregon, we have our own Brown Stain who is just as bad as California's (he's out now, isn't he?) who is more than happy to ignore the Bill of Rights, and pretty much the rest of the Constitution, since those are incompatible with her and her handlers' drive to turn this into yet another fucked up Marxist hellhole.
No need to drag Christian mythology into this. We can fuck up our society enough by ourselves without the help of the Christian Cosmic horror (or its so called Devil).
That may be so; but that still won't stop them from trying. They could even attempt to make it an ex post facto law, like a group of traitors tried to push through here in Oregon recently (fortunately they failed). And nowadays, there are good odds that they could slip such a thing through.
Nah. That is too broad a maneuver. More likely, certain interests will call for flight simulator programs to be heavily restricted and only for use by certified instructors and flight schools.
Those little physical trinkets really helped give each company its own distinct personality.
I remember back when I started selling online, almost any swag from any of the Ultima games up to then was always a pretty much guaranteed cha ching.
Nowadays, I have no idea (guess I could look it up, but don't feel like it.:p ). I think back in the day, almost anyone trying to sell Ultima related stuff almost always did so hoping to attract the attention of one particular buyer: Fortrandragon.
But alas, it looks like he must have finally retired from active collecting after achieving what I presume is the most holy grail (and not just a grail shaped beacon) of Ultima Collectors.
My Yorkshire Mana had not yet recharged significantly when I had to burn it all in a recent FaceBook discussion where one spoke of having to walk barefoot in the snow to school.
He was lucky to have feet. We had to walk on our stumps.
One like that requires a longer recharge before firing off another.:D
At least, that's my excuse. At least so far, no one from The Yard has come barging in to force an ending.
Frankly, they are all cordially invited to fuck off. But in this case, Fuckerberg needed addressing, since if he would pull that shit on a hugh jass organization like that, he would have no qualms adopting such a policy for any organization or business; large or small, that needs an Internet presence to compete.
That is why in this case; he in particular needs to not only fuck off, but piss off, bugger off, and any other rude off you can think of.
Ah, the fuck with it. Those others can do all three as well.:D
I can attest that since I switched back to a dry herb vaporizer, my weed supply has been lasting much longer. I think it has already saved me at least 1 $100 ounce from the nearest dispensary.
I still enjoy smoking a bowl occasionally of course, but I mostly vape it. Just holding out until my plant I have growing out in the back yard buds...

I believe it was the philosopher Epicurus who said, "The early bird may get the worm; but the second mouse gets the cheese."
This topic brings to mind one of my favorites that has come up on more than a few occasions...

I wonder if this means that we will be able to have longer pot growing seasons with bigger yields here at 45 degrees north...
But no one here knows schmitt.
Mylar bag? You were lucky.
We had to make our antenna out of dirt.

Is that something they hear all the time? :D
Tesla sells shorts now? What type? straight cut booty shorts, super cheeky, Daisy Dukes, Daisy Ducks (Daisy Dukes made from white jeans)?

Yeah, true true, but there is the possibility that out of 250 employees; 170 declared right up front, "Fuck this shit."

80 people out of 7 billion; one company out of countless. That is a pretty small and insignificant sample size.
That may be so; but that still won't stop them from trying. They could even attempt to make it an ex post facto law, like a group of traitors tried to push through here in Oregon recently (fortunately they failed). And nowadays, there are good odds that they could slip such a thing through.
que calls to ban videogames...

Someone needs to invent the emo lawn. Then it would cut itself.
Personally I think that certain 3 wheeled bikes are much sportier, sexier...
I've got bad news for you -- you'll never be either of those sitting on a tricycle.
Eeyup. Sounds like someone forgot all about that entity to whom this was a holy icon yea back in the 80s and 90s... Steve Urkel.
Who does the pedaling, the driver or the passenger?
