Repeating "your editing skills need work" doesn't make it any less idiotic.
No you do that by your posts by not including what you are responding to.

Your response (that you, in turn thought I was responding to) was made yesterday to a post that I made on February 14th.  If you think I still care about your response two weeks later, (full disclosure though: I don't care about your posts ever) then you're sorely mistaken.  That you're too dumb to figure out that I was actually responding to a post directly above mine isn't my problem.

Suit yourself.  But you do spend a lot of time responding to posts that you do not care about ever..

Here you go Bambu, Battle Mountain, Nevada, has an official Chamber of Commerce...

https://www.battlemountainchamber.com/

For the young Australian Rugby players who explore Nevada, Battle Mountain has the Calico Club, which is a legal Bordello where the Sports Stars from Los Angeles go, and the Calico Club has a 5 Star Restaurant, etc.

I was a cook at the Colt Casino, which is still there, the Rugby Players can eat at the Colt and they can do some gambling.

And land is cheap in Nevada for the immigrants who are looking for a cheap place to settle, and they can raise pigs, etc, and they can sell pork to San Francisco, etc. And Battle Mountain would be a great spot for the poor people from Asia, and from Ukraine, and from our Southern Border, etc.

There is a college in Elko, Nevada, for the people who want to study.

Salute,

Tony V.

This week the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are children, and also ruled that black embryos can be tried as adults.

As we build housing, then I really like the Art Deco Architecture from the 1920s and 1930s...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Deco_in_the_United_States

And we can bring in the architects from Santorini, Greece, and from Spain, and from Italy, etc.

We also need to remember to build tennis courts, and swimming pools, etc.

And we need to have wonderful outdoor landscaping with fountains and plants and trees, etc, and cobblestones, etc.

Henderson, Nevada, is doing some fun new architecture. People need to have fun as they build housing, and they need to build great spaces for people to enjoy.

Salute,

Tony V.

You aged out but never picked up on any of the lessons. Now you are a burden we all share due to the danger you pose even in your diminished capacity.

Some facts regarding the condition of Palestinian civilians that are woefully underreported to some Elba members.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/feb/27/un-israel-food-starvation-palestinians-war-crime-genocide

There is no reason to intentionally block the passage of humanitarian aid or intentionally obliterate small-scale fishing vessels, greenhouses and orchards in Gaza, other than to deny people access to food, Michael Fakhri, the UN special rapporteur on the right to food, told the Guardian.   

My new policy on political forum dialog here - if you read the article and make a good-faith try at considering the facts presented and refrain from ad hominems against other members or racist slurs or stereotypes directed at any group of persons - I will reply to your comments. 

Otherwise, see ya in the Arts threads.

Macys will close 150 stores, 50 this year it said Tuesday, after posting a fourth-quarter loss and declining sales.  https://trib.al/ii3rOyE

----------

We need to bring in the Italians, and the French, and the Mexicans, and New York, to help to save our department stores. Part of the greatness of free enterprise and capitalism is being able to have great stores.

I worked at The Broadway Department Store in Pasadena, California, and it was a great store, maybe the Italians, French, and Mexicans, can bring The Broadway Department Stores back.

We need to save our stores and markets.

Salute,

Tony V.

High-end Mexican department store Liverpool made its interest in Nordstrom known last month when it became its second-largest stakeholder after the Nordstrom family. It acquired a 9.9% passive stake in Nordstrom for about 5.9 billion pesos ($293.8 million). Oct 12, 2022

========

Maybe the Mexicans can help to bring back The Broadway Department Stores, and maybe they can help to save Macy's, while working together as a team with the Italians, and the French, and with New Yorkers, etc, and with the Californians, etc.

Salute,

The only perpetual threat to Gazans is Hamas.
