Husky TALKS at the VETS! Both Likes And HATES Them!


- DesertWoodworker

Anybody here finding vet appointments are hard to get lately? One vet said it was due to curbside service and that they can t keep up compared to the pre-COVID days…

I don t like it :>(

A guy gets on a plane and finds himself seated next to a cute blonde.

He immediately turns to her and makes his move.

"You know," he says, "I've heard that flights will go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.
So let's talk."

The blonde, who had just opened her book, closes it slowly and says to the guy, "What would you like to discuss?"

"Oh, I don't know," says the guy. "How about nuclear power?"

"OK," says the blonde.

"That could be an interesting topic, but let me ask you a question first:

A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff-grass.

Yet the deer excretes little pellets, the cow turns out a flat patty, and the horse produces muffins of dried poop. Why do you suppose that is?"

The guy is dumbfounded. Finally, he replies, "I haven't the slightest idea."

"So tell me," says the blonde,

"How is it that you feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know jack crap??"

Nightly woodworking thoughts- I came across this gadget, no not for me today- but a few years ago I probably would have. I liked the Panto router, Wood Rat, and Mathias videos… yet they didn t seem durable and repeatable until today.

Many people use the Festool Domino- any thoughts on comparisons?

In the past, it was etiquette to give the new administration 100 days… The bible states for people to pray for our government- prayers are free and open to anyone…

If that worked, we wouldn't be in the mess we have today. Time to have psychologists to using the Dunning Kruger Effect to qualify candidates. Most will be disqualified, but sanity would prevail.

...Congress exempts themselves from most laws the pass. Insider trading is legal for Nancy s family.

- TopamaxSurvivor

I agree Topa, however, it appears the worst examples are "R" members.

Members of Congress are not held to the same ethics and disclosure requirements as members of the executive branch, but they must obey the 2012 STOCK Act, which prohibits trading on nonpublic information that they accessed in the course of their official duties for personal profit. Two GOP senators - Richard Burr of North Carolina and Kelly Loeffler of Georgia - have already faced accusations of improper trading, but maintain they did nothing wrong.

And Sen. David Perdue, a Georgia Republican, is another fine example of profiteering off of the pandemic. Luckily Perdue and Loeffler both lost.

And lets not forget Sen. Richard Burr, a Republican from North Carolina and chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, reportedly sold between $500,000 and $1.5 million in stock during February 2020.

The STOCK Act of 2012 forbids lawmakers from using nonpublic, material information for personal financial gain. There can be criminal and civil penalties for violating the act. The legislation's acronym stands for "Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge."

BTW, Burr was one of three senators voting against it, various media outlets noted on Thursday.

Just saying… ;-)

The Congressional Ethics Office is limited to disciplining the worst 2, one form each party annually. That law is irrelevant. It is a Façade Act.

This one is for our NWest fans-

On this day in 1700, the 'really big one' - a magnitude 9.0 earthquake - hit Western Washington

That says the coast only dropped 3 to 6 feet. They used to say it dropped 3 meters. Probably doesn't matter, they would feel it in Wyoming either way ;-))

The mayor being opposed to codes I wonder if they will have this in the liquefaction zone in the valley?

Top Max- Many people rely upon the power of prayer and your logic is wrong which is rare- If that worked, we wouldn't be in the mess we have today

To test whether or not an argument is valid, you should first imagine that the premises are true-whether or not they actually are-and then ask yourself, without appealing to any other knowledge you have, could you still imagine the conclusion being false? If you can, the argument is invalid. If you can't, then the argument is valid.

If a person doesn't believe in the power of prayer- then that is their opinion.

In closing, you are one of my favorites- please no disrespect to you- just an aside bar talk…
