Sent to me from someone in the Florida panhandle.

I have a Forerunner and it’s great. The 42.3mm face looks okay on my bitch wrist.

One nice feature is their PacePro Plans. You set up a run of your choosing and the watch keeps track of how many seconds you’re behind or ahead the pace you set up. Unfortunately, the timing feature doesn’t work and it doesn’t display whether you’re ahead or behind. Seems to be sort of common.
I went on a day trip to Antwerp with no expectations and ended up really liking it.

most of the east was not that bad

Hard to imagine but true. Plenty of petty crime and some violent crime but there were still a decent amount of holdouts who didn’t leave yet.

Gentilly might have been more dangerous.
I can’t believe the board hasn’t mentioned the murder of Ann Widdecombe. she was a 79 year old member of parliament who was a conservative, joined Brexit, and then Reform. She was a popular interview, very smart, and had a good sense of humor.

She was found murdered in her somewhat remote house approximately 2 weeks ago. Police initially said it was probably a burglary gone bad and had no political motive. They arrested a suspect who lives over 4 hours’ car drive away…a 30-ish white Briton who was described by neighbors as a nice guy. The terrorist squad is handling the case now. Still no mention by the police as to the motive.

Reminds me of a letter printed in The Reveille in the mid-1990’s. A guy said he was walking to the library to study for finals one early evening. A coed had the same idea and he was walking behind her, steadily gaining on her. When he was a couple of feet behind her and about to pass her, she wheeled around and sprayed him down with a healthy dose of pepper spray. She ran away.

To show that I had no fear, was the diamond in the hoop sported in my left ear.

Fox News was a part of the steal

I remember Tucker’s shows the first 2 nights after the election he was ramping up on exposing the steal and then he had a fluff show with the theme “What makes America great” and dropped the election topic.
What better advertising can there be than being banned from tournament fishing because it makes it too easy?

Slow down with the tech talk! I’m still trying to master this innovation!
Good news: You were intercepted by 2 fighter aircraft in a war zone but escaped unscathed.

Bad news: You landed safely in India.

As a youngster, the family went to Yellowstone and I tried my luck fishing in Yellowstone River. I had a Zebco outfit I used for bass in LA and tried several spinner type lures without luck. It was frustrating because I could see large trout a few feet off the bank just holding their place in the current. I borrowed a small black dry fly, maybe a gnat, and tied it on my monofilament basing line. I let out about ten feet of line and let the fly dance on the surface right above their heads. I didn’t move the fly or let it drift. After a long period of time, one of the trout was driven insane enough to drift up and snatch the fly.

I repeated this same technique and caught several large trout. My dad, a fly fishing purist, waded around the bend in the river because he was both humiliated and infuriated.

That’s my fly fishing purist story.

I wish they’d decide Justice Roberts was no longer useful.

The Patriot Front was a tool used by the Leftists to be able to make their claim that white supremacists were the biggest domestic threat in America.

The ADL claimed:
quote:

As has been the case since 2019, Texas-based Patriot Front was responsible for the vast majority – 80 percent – of propaganda distributions in 2022. The group distributed propaganda in every state except Alaska and Hawaii but was most active (from most to least active) in Massachusetts, Texas, Michigan, Virginia, Pennsylvania and Utah.

So you have a group that appears to be supported, in some ways (memberships? funds funneled via SPLC, etc?) performing acts like putting up signs, that are tracked by the Feds as racial events. These taxpayer-funded incidents are then used as evidence white nationalism is a huge threat.

It’s really evil and anti-American. Typical Leftists.

Suit every day when I worked at an accounting firm and a bank. Current company used to be a suit every day but that ended a long time ago.

What really bothers me is the C-suite folks who run the company changed to wearing business casual in a concerted move a few years ago. It’s like they don’t want to be seen as being any different than everyone else or they don’t want to be seen as leaders who should be held accountable but they still want the big bucks. They are different and should dress like it.

I’ve noticed more and more baseball caps on guys in the office. I don’t think that’s appropriate for a white collar office job but when the company leaders dress like they’re going out to eat at Chili’s, you open the door to that kind of stuff.
