Edwards Air Force Base is in Edwards Air Force Base, CA.

Thirty-five years ago today the B-2 Spirit took flight from Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale to Edwards Air Force Base, becoming the worlds first strategic stealth bomber.
Flight testing on the B-2 continues with the 419th FLTS to ensure the aircraft maintains cutting-edge capabilities in an era of Global Power Competition. #AFMC

------

35 years ago I was managing a dog kennel in Lancaster, The Canine Country Club, and I took care of the Guard Dogs for Northrop when they did the roll out of the B2 Stealth Bomber, Northrop gave me a special Plaque for the wall of the dog kennel for taking care of the Guard Dogs for them for the roll out, the Plaque is probably still on the wall of the dog kennel.

And Elon Musk is a scumbag who needs to go back to South Africa. He is trying to cause a rift here in America between California and Texas, and he can fuck himself. Elon Musk is moving his operations from California to Texas as he bad-mouths California, fuck him, he needs to go back to South Africa. And we have Edwards, NASA, Lockheed, Northrop, JPL in Pasadena, and we have China Lake, etc, we do not need Elon Musk, fuck him, and he has not been altruistic anyway, the mother fucker never did shit to help the homeless in California, etc, etc, etc. Texas should tell Musk to fuck off. Musk is a son of a bitch, and he is not even American, he is just trying to start problems. We built the Space Shuttles with Rockwell, my step dad for a few years, Clay Baggett, was the boss of the Shuttle Program, he died a while back, anyhow, we do not need Elon Musk, fuck Elon Musk.

Thanks Bambu, everyone says that America has the best stores and markets, we need to continue to make sure that our stores are well stocked with goods, and we need to make sure that all states are getting these great Mangoes from California, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

So the Govt makes Walmart raise its prices to pay more in worker wages but your welfare check loses its current buying power in return?

Simple solution;

A ...Fair Work Commission

www.fairwork.gov.au

Minimum wages - Fair Work Ombudsman

xxx

Each year, the Fair Work Commission reviews both the National Minimum Wage and minimum pay rates under awards [Annual wage review].
Most changes begin on the first full pay period on or after 1 July.

The government makes WalMart raise its wages and spends less on money subsidizing. If they raise their prices they will lose market share.

Clearly. And Larry either paid attention during or made up the work after as evidenced by the fact that he understands lowering profit margins and management compensation is an easy way to offset the cost of fairly paying workers so the company becomes more of a benefit to than a suck on communities it does business in.

You on the other hand may have received a DEI diploma but it does not seem to have done you any good. In fact you do not seem to have learned much ever in your life.

Do not forget to vote in person December third. We want your voice to count Dim-Jim Ward.

Governor Newsom needs to throw a big party at the Hearst Castle at San Simeon, at the swimming pool. Roy Rogers and the Sons of the Pioneers played at swimming pool parties for William Randolph Hearst. Newsom can invite the Red Hot Chili Peppers, No Reaction, No Doubt, and other local bands, to play at a party at the Hearst Castle, and he can invite the best chefs to cook, and he can invite all of the stars from Hollywood and the best and brightest people in the world. Newsom needs to throw a party at San Simeon.

Salute,

Tony V.

I earned a Masters in Strategic Communication. You should sue your school district.

RIP Bob Newhart

I laughed at him as the Driving Instructor  and everything he did from then on.
