This was the antenna I had at my disposal: the venerable FLR-9 aka "the elephant cage"

Not a chance in hell. I've been to NM about 20 times over the past 2+ years and it's very, very blue. The governor has her eye on more important offices and is in lockstep with DNC mandates. Tried to ban guns in ABQ in '23 for 30 days, which went over like a lead balloon. Has led charge against fossil fuels in NM although the huge revenues it produced were funding 'free' college for NM residents. I wouldn't count on NM voting for Trump. If I had to bet, I think Harris wins that state 55-45. JMHOGut feeling on NM, "sort of" West Texas and Arizona are trending HARD right currently, and with the massive Latino population in NM, and it being literally "sandwiched" between those two it just doesn't make sense that it's solid blue.
I was up in Garlstedt when Reds won WS back in '90. Watched on AFN. We deployed down to the Gulf a bit later.I was sitting in the Saudi desert in Oct 90 when the Reds won the world series. I did not get the stars and stripes until about a week later and then it was all of them all at once. So, I read them in succession to get a sort of retro play by play.
USAF always, ALWAYS, enjoyed luxurious lifestyle compared to Army. Heh.I was in the Air Force, so I was probably complaining about the room service/having to get up before 11:00 am/or nursing a hang nail etc.
Bull$H!+...that's an antenna to communicate with Extraterrestrials!This was the antenna I had at my disposal: the venerable FLR-9 aka "the elephant cage"

I watched this happen in real time in the Carter administration. Before Carter I knew of very few women (married) that worked. During and after Carter, during and after record inflations and interest rates.....I knew many who went into (had to) the workforce.And even in cases of two parent families, children aren't raised by their mothers anymore because both parents usually have to work now. Children are now raised by daycare, babysitters and or public schools. We wanted so badly to let women work (and I'm not saying that they shouldn't be able to if they want) that we have created an economy in which they have to in order to make enough money to provide for kids
Hard to believe he's in his mid 80s.bs. nobody could do that

I watched many a game here. To me...an iconic, old time college football stadium.Anybody around my age on here that went to UK Football games back in the 70's remember going under the endzone bleachers (that's literally all they had in each endzone at that time, just old school wooden bleacher seats) and collecting a crapload of those empty Commonwealth Stadium cups? My Dad still has at least a couple of dozen of those things at his house (depression baby) LOL
You had to be careful when you were under there, or you'd get brained on the skull with one of the many empty whiskey bottles that were always randomly dropping.
Agree. Years ago I went there a number of times....old girlfriend's parents owned property in ABQ next to one of the Unsers. Back when it wasn't as blue...or blue at all. But now you've got ABQ and Santa Fe that are both blue and the main population centers. Unlike, say KY, the rest of the state is sparsely populated. And (I believe) the native Americans are very Dem, I guess based on gov't assistance programs.Not a chance in hell. I've been to NM about 20 times over the past 2+ years and it's very, very blue.

My question is why would food shortages and a shutdown benefit the Democrats? if they shut down over the SAVE act, that can't look good on Dems. and Food shortages? how does that fall on the Pubs if the ports strike?The "surprise" will be a govt shutdown and forced food shortages to try to skew people before the election. Riots. Another more successful attempt on Trump (or staged against Harris). If Trump lives and IF Harris poll numbers don't inprove, I'm guessing no election at all. State of emergency and power grab
Hasan spotting in the wild! Crazy. You know you've got penetration when you're actually in the rightwingers' memes lol. Talk about triggered.
Hopefully Musk beats him to it.Yep. Has to be a smooth transition of power for the party or the markets bottom out, which is what soros is hoping for so he can buy everything
MSM 'spin'.My question is why would food shortages and a shutdown benefit the Democrats? if they shut down over the SAVE act, that can't look good on Dems. and Food shortages? how does that fall on the Pubs if the ports strike?
Bull$H!+...that's an antenna to communicate with Extraterrestrials!
Folks, don't take Hyman's bait...he worked uncover for Classified Black Budget Agencies!
👽👽👽👽👽
Yeah, it was a total bs move by Johnson to say that the shutdown would hurt the republicans. Not backing the SAVE act DOES hurt the republicans, imo.My question is why would food shortages and a shutdown benefit the Democrats? if they shut down over the SAVE act, that can't look good on Dems. and Food shortages? how does that fall on the Pubs if the ports strike?
Billionaire passes tax cuts for billionaire buddies then demonizes legal immigrants.... News at 11.
What a difference. One man is cheered at the UN. The other is jeered.
Of course they cheer biDIM you moron. They know they can control his sorry ass.What a difference. One man is cheered at the UN. The other is jeered.

Kamala Harris to sit for interview with MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle days after host defended VP dodging on policy
Vice President Kamala Harris will sit down with MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle for interview on Wednesday, the Democratic nominee's first solo interview with a major network.www.foxnews.com
Soros is just a proxy for the State Department. The State Department needed a boogie man to take the heat for the some of the notorious things they wanted done. Mike Benz is a master of explaining how things really work. You guys really need to listen to some of his interviews.Hopefully Musk beats him to it.
Back in the 70's in Graf, even when we were not in the "field" we were in the field. We lived in GP large tents in the rear and used out houses and outside showers. That was the billeting then for us. But the unit kind of made up for it, they kept us stocked in cases of flippy top beers. Good stuff.USAF always, ALWAYS, enjoyed luxurious lifestyle compared to Army. Heh.
We deployed to Graf and Hohenfels during winter months. USAF FACs stayed in nearby hotels except when exercises happened. We slept in the mud or on frozen ground.
"Seamen" you guys are always "cumming" up with this kind of crap.At least you fellas had an antenna. Try keeping up with scores when you are in the middle of the ocean. LMAO

As far as the AF, yeah, they have much better accommodations than the Army. Just recently discussed this with my daughter (18 years old) when talking about the possibility of women being drafted if it ever comes about. Told her the best bet was to enlist in the Air Force before her number came up and serve with them if it happens.
Yeah, get me a left-handed monkey wrench, or box of grid squares, or a TR double E-10, or a bucket of quadrant bubbles. Those were some of the ones we used. After being got on the left-handed monkey wrench as a private, I was alert for the next one when my chief told me to find him a TR double E-10. I went to the tree line not far from our motor pool and found the 10th tree in and sat down until they came and found me. When my chief got there and started yelling at me for "Goldbricking" I told him I found the 10th tree but could not get it out of the ground, so I was waiting for help. He then laughed and said, Ok private you win this one.they used to send newbies out there to "calibrate" it by just giving them some inane task like stopping at each segment upright and tapping it with a crescent wrench, but it was important to alternate between even and odd number of taps at each standard. Poor bastards would be out there for hours.
No, home schooled for the last 3 years.Was she in the HS band? If so, she can get moved to the Drum and Bugle Flight (commonly referred to, by everyone else as the "Beat and Blow) for basic, and let me tell you, it is absolute cake. We didn't have to do ANYTHING, other than play parades and practice. I remember doing some jumping jacks a couple of times, and we got to hold a rifle this one time, which was cool.
Even if she wasn't in the band, tell her to raise her hand anyway when they ask, because once we started practicing, it became obvious that at least half of those f***ers LIED. You could tell a lot of them had never even HELD an instrument before (but nobody seemed to care, they just told those folks to ACT like they were playing, and leave the actual playing to the rest of us)
It shows how pathetic and STUPID the money grabbing liberal UN is. But carry-on Sam.What a difference. One man is cheered at the UN. The other is jeered.
