Dogs, being a domesticated wolf ecotype/subspecies canis lupus familiarus, instinctively pack and work (forage, defend, play) as a team. Living with us humans thousands of years. Their domestication is/was selection of animals with neotenous traits. Adult canids that mature can become wolfy enforcing wolf rules with their teeth if not properly reared. Dogs are great companions.

I may never pet a dog again...

Wonder if Todd Herman will be taking over permanently for Rush's show. Seems like he's on there daily.

After Rush died I started listening to Todd Starnes out of Memphis. He is probably the most conservative voice in radio today. Another reason I like Todd is because Fox News fired him. If you get fired by Fox for being too conservative, you are my kind of people

Won't mention what I would like to do to Steve Schmidt and others like him. I can't imagine his type of thought process. Pure evil.

Almost now glad we are all "Virtual" friends... You guys are some Thugs...

I'd still sure like to have a few drinks with you all. I'd for sure buy.

I'll have a root beer!!!

I'm sorry, that's incorrect, glad you noticed. The last thing I need to do is worry someone. It should probably be subspecies canis lupus familiarus ecotype (group/breed). As long as one doesn't anthropomorphize one. They're generally very friendly associates. Quickly forget the unimportant. (forgive perception). Great friends.

Hey, I enjoy Greg Kelly. Carl Higbie too! This deplorable Neanderthal appreciates tea.

Had forgot that he got canned at Fox. Did he have his radio show while at Fox...or is that an endeavor since?
Went to his web site and he has an article on there about Beth Moore...if you know of her. Knew she was anti-Trump but sounds like she's veered quite a bit to the left. Wonder is James Robison still has her on. She used to be on his show quite often.

Glad that was cleared up. Had me worried🧐

Used to have a lot of slugs around my house. I used to step on them all the time. My young daughter would say, "Don't do that Dad. They're God's creatures too."

We've got snails big-time around our yard and house. Believe it or not, those critters are a delicacy (escargot) if raised correctly. Moreover, I've read snail secretions are highly sought by the beauty industry. Our climates are too hot (AZ, TX) for raising the best snail breeds, but snaileries in Washington state, Oregon and especially France have earned decent money for many years.

In 1964 the Mustang had just come out. I tried to buy one at the sticker price but I insisted that it include a four barrel carb, which cost $50 extra. They wouldn't do it and I walked away. They didn't care. Those Mustangs were selling like hotcakes.Bought the Impala instead. This 'un. I showed it to a friend of mine and said, "That's a nice color, isn't it?" He said, "Well, you and 50 milllion blacks couldn't be wrong."

Is that a 409? back in the 90s we bought a chrysler concorde for the wife that exact color. crap car.
I’m guessing that color isn’t original gm?

I have had escargot in the best restaurants on earth and it sucks!

I would not give 5 cents for the best on earth. Let the French eat that shit.

I had a 65 Impala SS 396 with a 4 speed in the floor. It only had 350 HP, but I really liked that car. Sold it when I went to boot camp and bought a 63 Vette when I got out.

That food chain thing is true. You are what you eat. But maybe they're like squirrels and fish. I wouldn't want a wild caught back yard snail. Hell no. But from the right snailery, I might sample. I do eat lots of shit.

Not a day goes by that I do not wish I had my old cars back. Simple to work on and the sound of the engines in those days gets my adrenalin pumping. It is 1962 all over again and I am late to Biology class.

But my 56' Ford should get me there with 5 minutes to spare. If I can find a place to park on Rose St. That was the hardest part of going to school. Trying to find a parking place on campus.

In the unlikely event I need the blueprint, I'll reach out to you by private message, Awf...To wrap up this highly macabre conversation, here's a ghoulish artifact that came my way from a good friend who probably interviewed Ted Bundy more than anyone else, and dug into his past for a book...Ghastly to think while he was concocting routine business and writing checks on his Utah bank, he was in the middle of his murderous streak...

I will never forget the day they fried Bundy. The local DJ came on the air with a count down and told everyone in Florida to turn off their lights so Ole Sparky would have more juice. People were celebrating and blowing car horns all over the state. BUNDY YOU ARE GOING TO DIE was the rallying cry.

Ole Sparky Got His Man. I like the way they electrocuted folks back then with a dress shirt and tie on. They were meeting Saint Peter in their Sunday Best.

 

[cordmaker]

Good afternoon D, I feel like I have been run over by a Mustang Fastback!!! Must be some after effects from the shot, felt fine yesterday.

Hope yawl have a great rest of the day!!!!!

Bundy was an evil bastard, Sawnee. That's for sure. Your interest may not be that great, but the friend I mentioned who interviewed him was a guy named Hugh Aynesworth. We worked together at The Washington Times in the late 1980s.

Hugh co-wrote a book (with Stephen Michaud) called "The Only Living Witness" then later put out transcripts of the Bundy interviews in an audio book called "Conversations With a Killer." Hugh came away totally disgusted, of course. But he figured it was worth the effort to try to gain some insight into what makes a person like Bundy tick. At that he'd be the first to admit they failed.

Just got back from getting our first COVID shot at Broadbent Arena. It took 3 hours!!. 30 rows of cars, 12 deep when we got there. Damn, and we have to do this again in early April.

Had snail in a restaurant in Germany and it came in this ceramic dish with holes for each snail. The snail had been cooked in the dish with several spices including garlic and butter. Loved it, ate it every time I went there.

 

[starchief5]

Let's go.

I am in favor of the death penalty when guilt of premeditated murder is beyond ANY doubt. There are many cases where there is absolutely NO DOUBT. Any doubt, life sentence, no parole.

For the death penalty to be any deterrent, execution should be only a couple of months after the verdict is read. Give them enough time to say their goodbyes, finish any necessary life business and to call out to God for mercy - something they didn't allow their victims.

Not silently, 20-30 years later when the horror of their deed is not remembered by anyone except possibly the family of the victims who might still be living..

Kind of like In Cold Blood with Capote? Difference being I guess that back in the late 50s a mass murder was something you never heard of. Now...with the decline of society...it's almost everyday news. Sad.

I am very interested in anything Bundy because we went through the terror of his existence here on earth. I have close friends who lived in Tallahassee when he killed the FSU girls and there was no telling where he would strike next. He was evil as evil gets. He had a high IQ and thought highly of himself. He was so smart he thought. They nailed him in Pensacola, after he killed the little girl in Lake City. Total evil.

I am thankful he was arrested in a capital punishment state like Florida because if he had been captured in a state like Washington State he would be getting a COVID 19 check in a few days. And living high in his cell smoking big cigars and watching TV. Instead 500 people gathered outside his execution cheering when they got the word he had left this world. Bundy was the only execution I can recall a radio commentator giving a "blow by blow" account of. But the state was so traumatized every one was thrilled he was gone.

I will make a note of the book and audio book. This is something I would be interested in reading and listening to. Thanks

When I first got married in Atlanta, a couple of guys lived next door in our townhouse development who were counselors at the Atlanta Pen (Federal). Had some pretty good stories. Both I think kind of feared for their lives in a way because when someone came up for parole they had to testify. And of course if it's a hard case, murderer, mafia, etc and they opposed the parole they would be threatened.
I'll never forget one time they said that the inmates had in many ways a better life than those on the outside. Said the food was top notch.

Do you remember Starkweather? He went on a killing spree for a couple of months in late 1957 and early 1958, killing 11 or 12 people with his teenage girlfriend. Another cold blooded killer who enjoyed what he was doing. He was executed in 1959. I remember listening to the news to see who and where their next victim was going to be.

Charles Starkweather and girlfriend Caril Ann Fugate. Bad News.

One of the women who lived in that Chi Omega house - she was there that night but not directly victimized - later worked as a press aide to US Attorney for Southern Florida Dexter Lehtenin. Her name is Diane Cossin, and I got to know her a bit. It is safe to say that night haunted her every day since.

My parents were in and out in 20 minutes and that included their 15 minute "after shot" wait time. I think the problem today was due to Broadbent changing over to Pfizer as opposed to Moderna. Today was the first day for the switch. Still shouldn't matter. The times were scheduled.
