thanx ... it’s only 13 minutes ... but the full movie ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6c-Dsg4X4Dk ) is an hour and a half

You won’t be watching it much longer. A young man with a funny name shot up a military recruiting station. Unless they have a manifesto espousing Jesus Christ as his savior and right-wing ideals, the media’s going to drop this like a hot potato.

Trump is wisely using ambage in describing Obunga as stupid and incompetent, rather than coming right out and saying he’s a (not very) covert muslim who is playing into Iran’s and ISIS’ hands and won’t REALLY confront them.

The Donald campaigns from a point of vantage
Telling all how the cow ate the cabbage
All the stuffed shirts
Know the truth hurts
He pulls no punches with speech that is ambage

But do the apples go directly on the desk, or should they be kind of indirectly tossed in that general direction?

(Robt can do it either way; he is not ambagedextrextrous though....)

Obama doesn’t use ambage at all .He told us right out that he was going to “fundamentally change America.”

True, but he said he was pro traditional marriage, too. A+++

I saw a portable dog grooming van drive by me recently. I didn’t catch the name of it before it was gone. I have to do some research.

Um, you’re better off in the hills of western PA than in Houston.

Better weather and game and water, for starters.

Funny, because Merriam-Webster has it. But thanks for playing.

A city of any size-any large city in any state-is not going to be a very safe place for long when the SHTF-if at all. Y’all are both welcome to bring you and yours out here to BFE-where going galt and willing to be off grid is well accepted-there is no having every convenience within reach in 5 minutes or less, and the sheriff is at least 20 minutes or more away if you call 911-but it seems a minor thing compared to the lack of traffic, theft rate, exhaust smells and constant sound of sirens in a city-and there is quiet, clean air that smells of fresh plants and wood, people who mind their own business unless you ask them for assistance, and woods to walk in.

Thieves and other criminals are more reluctant to go into places with locked gates over the driveways, alarm/guard animals, and the near-certainty that the people living there are armed and intolerant of intruders...

That is certainly true-if it all blows up and goes to hell, power and water in cities will go down with the grid. Survival would depend on being where you could provide your own water and food-a place with rivers, creeks, food crops, livestock and game, armed neighbors to defend it and the knowledge of how to live like a camping trip every day. The welfare types in the cities will be running amok like they do in every disaster situation, natural or otherwise, looting, burning robbing etc-like Katrina X 10-or the LA riots...
