At least Putin knows how to fight. None of this sanction bullshit, blow them up!

I believe things are changing there also.

The women or the food?

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.

Other european countries are proposing plans to prevent that sort of
thing in the future.

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

Far easier to grow it yourself, which is and always has been legal in the UK.

Why the fuck would you pay tax on booze? I brew my own for less than a tenth of the price.

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.

AFAIK there\'s nothing to make you paranoid, there\'s just sleepy and happy, in various proportions. I used to use it to get to sleep, but the effect stopped rather suddenly after 3 hours, so I had to get up and smoke it again, it got tedious.

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.

The only way I can sleep is to have a 26 hour day. It makes life interesting, I get to see the sunrise at 4am etc. Makes it harder when I need to meet someone who sleeps \"normal\" hours.

Ah, maybe it wasn\'t just me. I tried the gummies first without any

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.

I got that when buying a parrot with a credit card. I was phoned and asked to give my password to prove who I was. I asked them to prove who they were and they couldn\'t. I said how about I phone you back on the number on the back of my card, and they thought that was an amazing idea!

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.

If the word for green is blue, what is the word for 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.

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\'ve no idea what they mean. If the amber is on/flashing, it means halfway between red and green in one direction or the other. Does it really matter? If you want to be cautious, then stop, you\'re either stopping early, or waiting until it\'s really green. If you drive like me, amber means accelerate.

Apparently going through amber is illegal in the UK unless you can prove you couldn\'t have stopped in time.

That\'s extra to do. Out of the corner of my eye, I can see the colour, but I\'d have to look at it to see the position, looking away from what I\'m already looking at ahead of me. Therefore colour blind drivers are a danger on the road and should lose their licenses.
