Ireland is clean, beautiful, safe, and friendly. An American can often
communicate with the locals. The women are great and the food is
mostly mediocre.

Who is about as Irish as Xi or Putin.
I knew an Irish engineer who designed digital video equipment about
forty years ago, and there was a famous Irish mathematician:

I believe things are changing there also.

Biden is senile, just like most of your presidents. Why don\'t you hire younger ones who still have brain cells?

I was just reading about Ireland\'s economic crisis. Their tax policies
have encouraged so many companies to move there that they have a huge
government budget surplus and can\'t agree on how to spend it.
Lauren Boebert? The youngest president in my lifetime was JFK who got his
brain cells splattered all over a limousine. Clinton and Obama weren\'t
recommendations for 40-somethings.
Teddy Roosevelt was younger but Czolgosz had provided a sudden job opening
for the office.

I\'d be extremely cautious anyway. I gather Moroccan blond hash is strictly

The stuff being grown in Europe under UV lamps is excessively high in
the paranoia inducing chemical and rather low in the dopamine inducing one.
The days of Afghani black, Lebanese gold, and Nepalese temple balls are
long gone.

It helps? I\'d tried CBD oil. I don\'t know what I expected but I noted
absolutely no effect. Might have been a coincidence but after a slightly
increased dose cleaned out my gastrointestinal tract I shelved it.
It helps him sleep. I\'m not sure what it does for pain.

Ah, maybe it wasn\'t just me. I tried the gummies first without any
noticeable effect either. Besides being expensive they tasted like a roach
rolled in sugar.
Yeah, that\'s why he uses capsules. And makes his own, so he knows
what kind of oil is inside.
Maybe some people get a benefit from CDB but not me. I\'m pragmatic. I take
turmeric which is supposed to be good for joints. I wouldn\'t swear one way
or the other but the stuff is cheap. Something that is expensive and
doesn\'t seem to have a benefit gets cut from the list fast.
$100 worth of THC tincture lasts him months. Much cheaper than
some of the prescription stuff he takes. We end up in the Medicare
Part D donut hole every year. (Which is why Biden\'s effort to regulate
the price of 10 medicines he doesn\'t take makes us yawn.)
I thought they shrunk to donut hole too.
They might have shrunk it, but it\'s not gone. The last time I dropped
$900 at the pharmacy (on a single prescription), my credit card company
texted me over suspicious behavior.

red on the left.
So says the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals. Of course
the US isn\'t a signatory. The US does have a national standard but some
states have their own version. Red on the left of a horizontal light
probably is safe unless the local DPW drone is dyslexic.
A friend pointed out an oddity from his years in Japan. Japanese certainly
can see green but for historical reasons the word for it means blue. Japan
follows the convention but uses the bluest shade of green they can get
away with to satisfy the \'green\' convention while not going against the
language usage so in Japan they go on blue.
I think that fits in with the fallacy that ancient Greeks were colorblind
because Homer and the boys named colors differently. Then there was the
\'white\' statues thing. Better surface analysis showed they were originally
painted in rather garish colors.

Shiny! Unless you\'re color blind of course.
I want to watch a colour blind fool get the traffic lights mixed up

Wouldn\'t someone who is colour blind rely on the position of the lights?
Top light is red, bottom light is green.
It is the single blinking light that can fool some. Friend of mine
would always ask if someone was with him, stop if alone as he could not
tell the difference.

I saw something different last weekend. The intersection has the blinking
light but the side road had a blinking stop sign. By that I mean the
standard octagonal stop sign had what looked like flashing red Christmas
tree lights around the perimeter. It has to be homegrown.
Apropos: I went to CostCo yesterday and they had artificial Christmas
trees and blinking reindeer. Shoot me now.

Yes, the cheap tat shops here have Christmas now. Desperation. Normally
the seasons follow chronologically: Back To School, which started about
two weeks before the schools closed this year, then Halloween, then
Christmas.
