DC snipers began devolving in my little town, Ashland VA. I was in the YMCA working out the night they came and got a shower, just before they shot the guy at the Ponderosa.
BUT, this one was so senseless and hit home as the Harvey house was right next to the mountain bike path I rode all the time. It felt really weird riding there afterward. Knowing those little girls died like that.
These assholes just walked right into these peoples house on NYD, who were busy prepping their house for a party they held every year.

Here's a similar fraud story here in RVA, local Dem cheating people (sadly, disadvantaged women and children) out of thousands.
WRIC News article on public frand sentencing
Funny thing is, the local news channel WRIC posts some of these articles on Facebook. For laffs I decided to wade into the comments. A shocking number of local idiots think this woman is a Republican operative of the Trump Admin. Some people are so dumb.

re: What Were You Doing On A Friday Night In High School?
Posted by chrome_daddy on 2/25/26 at 5:43 pm to STigers
LIved in Chas SC suburbs the first few years in mid 70's. Had lots of friends from school activities, sports and worked in a gas station in another HS district (Goose Creek) so I got to know all those baws / gals.
My airman workmate always had a duffel bag of good weed (Columbian Gold, Panama Red, etc.) they flew up. I sold ounces for $35 and I was quite popular. I also was 6'2 at 15 and could buy beer if I wore my uniform.
Friday nights were football games then the parties out at various boat ramps, parks. Street racing our hot rods. Taking chicks out to the field next to the airport. Or drive-in movies with a crowd - park in the back. Saturday night was sneaking beers watching my dad and his friends race at Summerville Speedway.
Then moved to Natchitoches Parish before senior year. Met a good group with jobs, money, a few hot cars. Friday nights were cruising the strip, hitting the two drive-thru daquiri / liquor stores, and meeting up in the Walmart parking lot (Walmart was like a Roses back then). Then we'd all decide where out in freakin country we'd meet up for a campfire and more shenanigans.
Now it's date night for the hot nurse and I. Still have a good time with friends in the bars and then out in the woods.

re: How often do you actually sit down and read a book?
Posted by chrome_daddy on 2/25/26 at 5:25 pm to CBandits82
Every night before bed, for anywhere from 3-4 mins to 20-30 mins. Dependent on how tired out I am.
Primarily fiction but also bios, history, psych, politics, Pulitzers, you name it.
Best are stories by Connelly, Kellerman, CJ Box. Authors that paint scenes with their words to help my brain slow down and crash.

I retired back in 2024. My tech lead of the robotics/automation practice / platform I implemented at a fortune 100 company (ended up with 60-75 bots) was promoted bc of AI. We did such a good job w the automation program my lead was called into the CEO / CIO's offices and "voluntold" to lead the corp rollout of Copilot and Claude.
Six months later, he's stressed out as his current mgmt sucks, wishes I was still there. I briefly had remorse that I'm not there in the thick of things, learning, planning, executing.
re: Any of y'all been burned loaning a family member or friend money?
Posted by chrome_daddy on 2/8/26 at 2:39 pm to Cregg
My wife was widowed before she met me. After she had received insurance $$, she was talked into loaning this cousin of her husband's $5,000 to keep his paver / landscaping biz afloat. This was like 20 years ago. A chunk of change.
I got wind of this and convinced my soon to be wife to file suit, which she won.
We settled a few years ago when he covered the labor install of our 2,500 sf outdoor patio and kitchen.
Best advice, don't do it. But if you, make it a loan agreement with a signed contract, interest rate, penalties, etc.

re: Are liberal women even dateable in 2026 for conservative men?
Posted by chrome_daddy on 2/5/26 at 8:36 am to Ebridg3
No, not in this day and age. My ex was a liberal back in the 90's, raised that way by her federal bureaucrat mom (Ph.d, she knows it all - just ask her).
She supported women's rights, etc., but we NEVER discussed politics because she knew I follow policy closely and could blow away any of her arguments easily. She didn't follow news whatsoever.
Now, years later she has TDS and has gone over the edge. in raising our son she's mentioned concern about him listening to Andrew Tate and "toxic masculinity" online. Of course, she knows that's just inviting a lecture from me on "toxic feminism".
Leftist women are different these days. Activists, militant, TDS-infected. It's sad, but save yourself grief - stay away from them.

re: The Portal era is just different. Not better or worse

quote:THIS.
It only feels 'not worse' right now because LSU got the better end of it in the portal.
Just think of everybody else, 90% of other teams fans probably REALLY hate it.
Just think if you were a Clempsun fan. Their only decent player was pickpocketed from them at the last minute in Dabo's first serious attempt at using the portal. Now their piddlling 70th rated class looks up at us at number 1. Of course, some of their holier than thou fans need a little grounding so not completely a bad thing.

I was in the Comp Sci program at LSU, working selling computers on Florida Blvd, on a lunch break to get another Stephen King book at the EBR library on Goodwood. They had the news playing on a TV near the entrance. Unreal.
Shite, have to add the hot nurse's story: she was 17 and swimming off the dock of her house with her friend Jennifer in Cape Coral FL.
They saw the explosion.

Was doing > 100 on the Nakatrash bypass in the below Mustang (in my shop now). I was following a friend in a LT1 Camaro. Weed and beer was involved invariably. He suddenly swerved onto the paved shoulder. I couldn't see what was in front of him so I followed.
Someone was turning left into the Holiday Inn out there.
Had 2 other people in the car with me. If I hadn't swerved, us and other people would be dead. Dumb kids.

As a corp tech manager, I was always on call except when on vacation. So, 24 / 7, the central help desk could call and I'd have to get on the phone, online, rally the troops and fix stuff. Could be 20 mins, could be hours. Sometimes have to drive to the office.
Didn't get paid anything beyond my salary. But I was responsible, regardless.
