Phoenix being the fastest growing city in the US is a monument to the arrogance of mankind. I live here. I love it. But it is a stupid, stupid place to put a major city.

I've heard one draw, besides the you don't shovel sunshine, is that a house is cheaper in multiple ways - no basement, cheaper land, less humidity-proofing, no NG lines, insulation/HVAC deals with a 20-30 deg. differential in summer instead of a 50-70 deg differential in winter, roofs last longer, trusses not needing to handle snow load, etc.  I would guess newcomers were not thinking about the water problems so much.  Or the insanely hot days getting even hotter and what happens when the AC goes on the fritz and you are waiting three weeks for the swamped repair crews to get to you. 

[Hairy Lime]

Roads last longer, too, without the constant freezing and thawing and salt. And being a new city the roads are in a neat grid of evenly space N/S and E/W four lane roads. And the a/c repair only took ten days, which we spent in a quaint pet friendly Bed and Breakfast. Well, a Best Western, but I insist those are B&Bs.

Actually, the reason it took 10 days is the fan blade it needed was in Tucson and would not be in Phoenix for a week. "Is it... walking here?" was not as appreciated as I had hoped.

Shouldn't be very long before Texas and California leave the Union, annex Arizona and New Mexico and form a new country, the Sunbelt Republic or other possible names.
All detailed on Youtube.

Access to deep sea water at both ends, great GDP, incomes $70,000pa for all, 300,000 troops, official languages English and Spanish...or Spanish, with English running a long second.

Well, Americans were warned what would happen if massive immigration both legal and illegal was allowed to happen, and Cinco de Mayo allowed to grow from a trickle to a flood...with American flag shirts on students banned.

If you are incapable of watching without filtering out the obvious bull shit, just stop watching YouTube.

Lord a mighty! What is that smell?


It is the BULLSHIT you posted.

World Water Day today.

African man with hat and chalk board says:

"Drink more water".

"Drink lots of water."

"Drink lots of water and you'll be too busy peeing to worry about other people's opinions." 🙂

Taking the piss (in the British sense) is all you do here.

I am always pleasantly startled when I get a laugh from a customer service person.

Governor Katie Hobbs is still young, and she seems to be doing a great job in Arizona, with Phoenix being the fastest growing city in the USA according to Siri; maybe Katie Hobbs can consider becoming a future President of the United States.

Salute,

Maybe it just happened, from wild west days in 'Arizona territory', grew large.
Fastest growing city in America, it must be popular for reasons.
2 hrs West, in the desert, van lifers love it, they are featured in a video.

Of course there are reasons for its growth. But that does not make putting 5 million people 9n a place with little water is smart.

Quartsite is the tbird largest city in Arizona, one month a year.

Mahlagha Jaberi is in Washington DC this weekend with Farah Pahlavi and others as they work for improved human rights for the women of Iran.

Lots of people from California are retiring to Arizona, and Lisa Brando lives in Arizona, and it is a great state for solar power. We just need to solve the water issues. We can put people to work building more dams and aqueducts, etc.

And Bambu, I read about the new submarines, and they are $3 Billion each, the submarines are very expensive. We can sell you B-21 Raiders for $750 million each, and the B-2 Stealth Bombers that we sent to protect you cost $2 Billion each. We can build you a new aircraft carrier for $500 million and we can sell you F-22s and F-35s to put on your aircraft carrier, and the F-16s are cheap. And we can send you some modified and updated and upgraded F-104 Starfighters as INTERCEPTORS, we need to vector the thrust to help them to steer better and to pull out of uncontrolled spins, but once updated then nothing can outrun an F-104 Starfighter. And we need to send you the equipment to jam and crash enemy drones, etc.

The people planning it are serious, obviously.
Gotta take notice of serious people planning mutiny, especially in the US where every state is basically an individual country.
They likely don't see it as mutiny, but rather as 'doing the best for them', which seems to be every person's motto today.
Certainly is the motto of team bambu.

If California and Texas decided to do it, including annexing Arizona and New Mexico, who would be stopping them?
Another civil war?   or just let them have their way?

The United States is united, we may fight among ourselves but in the end we are united.

And California has Arnold who is a good peaceful citizen, and Texas has George W. Bush, Arizona has Katie Hobbs, etc, we have good peaceful people who all love America and who want for us to remain united.

I saw a picture of Maria Shriver with her Brothers, they all look like Kennedys to me, maybe there is a future leader in the Shriver family.

The biggest threat to America right now is Donald Trump, he is a scumbag.

And Biden is doing a great job, but he is getting too old, we need younger people.

We also need to work harder with the United Nations to stop Putin, and to lock Putin in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. We need to go in and arrest Putin just like we did with Noriega. And we need to have allies who we can put in charge of Russia after we remove Putin, we have allies in the Russian Space Program, and in the Arts, etc, we need to find allies who can run Russia after we remove Putin. And we need for China to be our friend and ally and teammate for world peace and to stop Putin.

We need peace and world trade.

And California can benefit from sending ships full of goods to Australia, Trader Joe's, and Northgate Markets, can send goods to Australia and can open stores in Australia. And Mexico can benefit from selling goods to Australia. And Colombia can sell coffee to Australia, etc.

And lots of money is being invested in Mexico, Mexico is going to be great for the tourists, etc. And people from Minnesota can retire to live on a nice beach in Mexico, etc.

We need peace and world trade. And we need schools and libraries, and we need to educate our people, and everyone needs to read "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, etc.

And the Christians need to obey Matthew 25; 31-46 and we need to help the orphans and we need to help the homeless, and we need to feed the hungry, etc.

Also, Canada is a good place to send refugees, the forest of Victoria, Canada, is a great place to send refugees, and Kiwanis has a village in Victoria, Canada. 

Salute,

Tony, US currently has a $28 billion pa trade surplus with Australia.

Lock Putin in a cage in Gitmo?
Good idea.
Problem is, catching him. He'd start firing off nukes before he'd allow himself to be captured.

Too many US troops/Green Berets/sailors, air crews etc have died in wars, time ground invasions ceased.

Send us your Iron ore and stuff that you are sending to China, we can send you ships full of goods, and if nothing else you can fill the ships full of Iron ore to send back. Be sure to have Australia send the good Prime Beef to our allies in Taiwan, and send the good beer and wine from Australia to Taiwan, we need to reward our allies. And you would love to have a good Trader Joe's in your neighborhood in Australia, and a Northgate Market. Have you ever had fresh baked tortillas for your burritos? Northgate bakes fresh bread, and they bake fresh tortillas, once you have the fresh baked bread and the fresh made tortillas then you will really be grateful. We can send you some of the good stuff from Southern California.

I had a roommate who was one of the guys who went in and arrested Noriega, and the guy was severely mentally ill, he was dangerous, he was a mentally ill killer and he was stuck in a perpetual war in his head. I was scared to live with the guy. War veterans can be crazy people, war damages people. My friend Tom was a Combat Medic, and he was mentally ill, he served in Kuwait, and then he worked as a Doctor for the Navy in Pennsylvania for 20 years, he was a great guy, but he had PTSD bad. PTSD is hard to deal with, and it takes therapy and it takes medication, etc.

Maybe we can have the people of Russia arrest Putin themselves, and send Putin to Guantanamo Bay themselves. In the end the Italians killed Mussolini themselves. Maybe we can find our allies in Russia and support our allies in the overthrow of Putin and maybe the Russians will arrest Putin themselves and turn him over to go to prison in Cuba. We have the World Bank and unlimited funds in our fight against Putin, we can use money to support our allies to arrest Putin. Plus, right makes might, and we are in the right, we can appeal to the people of Russia whom have good morals and empathy. We need for the good Russians whom are on our team go in and arrest Putin and hand Putin over to us, and then our good allies can take over Russia and they can run Russia. Russia can be a fun place if they have good leaders. Russian Caviar, and Vodka, and Ballet, and the beautiful Russian women, we have the Russian Tea Room in New York at Central Park. Kirk Douglas was a Russian Jew from New York. Lots of the Jews in Israel had ancestors who lived in Russia. The Jews were safe in Russia, and Russia helped to stop the Nazis. Russia was on our side against Hitler. We need to find out who our allies are in Russia, and then we need to support our allies in Russia as they arrest Putin and take over Russia. La Junta if you will. We need to support our allies as they arrest Putin and start Russia on a new and better path. And with Russia on our team we can usher in a great new time of peace and prosperity on earth.

Salute,

Tony V.
