Thanks! After the multiple double bogeys the last couple of weeks I thought it was about to start over before I reached 365. Which would've been at that point.

South Carolina becomes 29th state in nation with constitutional carry law

One more reason why South Cackalacky is on my short list of relocation destinations. -
What? My streak has lasted a year without missing a day or not solving the wordle. It was a goal I set after my first streak ended at 323 or something.

I was responding to this post. Actors are trained specifically to not aim directly at other people when firing weapons on set. The fact that he hit her would indicate that he was pointing the gun at her when he pulled the trigger. The fact that he didn't take precautions to ensure he wasn't aiming directly at her when pulling the trigger should result in a finding of some responsibility for her death.

You can traffic some Ukrainian women to my house. I have room.

Blanks, from my understanding, use the same brass and primers as "live" rounds. They just use a much smaller powder charge and a paper or wax "wad" to hold the charge in place. But when the trigger is pulled, that paper or wax wad can act as a projectile. So they are usually only "deadly" from close range, as occurred in the Brandon Lee incident. But, accidents do happen. Which is why actors are trained not to aim directly at each other when shooting.

Not exactly No. Actors are trained that even though a gun is (supposedly) loaded with blanks, they are still dangerous to the point of being life threatening. They are, therefore, trained to point the gun to the side of, or over the head of the actor they are supposed to shoot. They then play with camera angles to make it appear that the gun is actually being pointed at the actor who is supposed to be shot. Given his time in the business, he knew better. He's just a fockin doosh who thought he'd get away with breaking the safety rules this time. He was wrong.

Thanks! I had a few double bogeys in the last couple of weeks which didn't bode well. But I was able to eek them out. I still blame you for making me care about this game in the first place.

How Hungary became an autocracy - a lesson for the United States

He didn't have enough time. He was too busy getting us into WWIII so he could use the nuke codes to destroy the world so he could rule over it forever. -

They aren't sending their best. I heard that somewhere. Whoever said it knew what he was talking about. -
Geriatric Joeβs State of Union Address
5-Points replied to Tree of Knowledge's topic in The Geek Club
Not really. Link "Thereβs something wrong with previous U.S. jobs reports. The government quietly erased 439,000 jobs through November 2023, a closer look at the numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows. That means its initial jobs results were inflated by 439,000 positions, and the job market is not as healthy as the government suggests. Since the government wiped out 439,000 jobs after the fact, the total percentage of jobs created by the government last year is even higher. Increased government hiring has been driving the jobs numbers higher. This matters because U.S. jobs reports move the markets and U.S. Treasury yields. Plus, they are a significant factor in the Federal Reserveβs decisions about the path of interest rate hikes and cuts. All that affects U.S. consumersβ pocketbooks." They just expanded an already bloated government. -
I hate when I do that.

New Belgium currently dominates the 19.2 category nationally with their Voodoo Ranger line. SN' "Juicy Lil Thing", Firestone Walker's "Cosmic Crusher" & "Brain Melter" and Elysian's "Juice Dust" (among a ton of others) are all competing for a piece of VR's market share.

You're wrong. "Voodoo Ranger Juice Force imperial hazy IPA, which launched in early 2022, became the largest craft innovation of all time, with nearly $73.3 million in off-premise sales year-to-date through January 1, 2023" Link

"Juicy" is the current trend with everybody gunning for Voodoo Ranger.

I learned my lesson about celebrating too early. Two points is too close for my liking. We'll see how it shakes out in the morning.
