Beirut blast...anything is possible in the Middle East.

Good thing everything is normal in the USofA ....

Better to live in the USofA.
When Mrs bambu travelled there in recent times she thought it was a great place.
Some people in said USofA are not happy with it and want to turn it into something else.

I always find it interesting when Fox News brings on guests who readily concede "I don’t know the facts".....

Facebook gets rid of troll farms pretending to be blacks supporting Trump, among others.

GOP knows it cannot win without deceit and the help of the Russians.

And why, do you suppose, the Russians would be working so hard on Trump's behalf?!

Must be because he's "so hard" on them, huh?

Sweet.
March For Our Lives (Parkland survivors) filed the complaint against the NRA last year.



“Don’t ever underestimate the power of pissed off teenagers,” wrote Hogg, who survived the Parkland shooting, which left 17 people dead.”

Swan started with COVID-19. "Those people that really understand it," Trump said, "they said it's incredible the job that we've done." "Who says that?" Swan asked, but Trump had moved on. "I think it's under control," Trump said later. "How?" Swan asked. "A thousand Americans are dying a day." "They are dying, that's true," Trump conceded. "And it is what it is."

There is the new campaign slogan: "They are dying, that's true. It is what it is."

I was fond of "It's under control, as much as it can be."

And also, when Swan explained that he was looking at deaths as a percentage of population,
"You can't do that!"

Americans are not stupid, hotel edition:
https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/massachusetts-hotel-accused-of-hosting-300-person-wedding-despite-warnings/2173024/

310 people one day. 190 the next day.

This is pretty close to my community and it makes me uncomfortable to know that that many people are behaving that stupidly that close to where I live.

Or where anybody lives, for that matter.

He should at least add "... and its very sad, it's a terrible thing that so man are dying, we are trying our hardest to stem this awful tide of death"

Not trying to top you,  but...Sturgis,  Black Hills,  250,000 bikers predicted this year,  officially starts tomorrow.   We already navigated biker crowds at a restaurant up Spearfish Canyon,  on Tuesday.   We ate outside.   Iron Creek trail was nice and quiet,  though.   Bikers are mostly not big hikers.

It is better than past years,  and looks like numbers will be half the average.   Peter Fonda won't be here, having ridden his chopper into the beyond last August.

But it needs some music.

I recommend the timeless Bob Marley: https://youtu.be/TCz-z4OOcbY
