OFFICIAL GDT: ELECTION DAY/NIGHT -- BIDEN VS. TRUMP 11/3/20

Setting aside the question of whether what Ms. Carone was saying was true or not, that letter is likely horsecrap. Statements made in official proceedings, such as court cases and official government hearings, are generally protected by absolute privilege, even if false . Threatening to sue or actua...

Police earning the hate

Minnesota police officer Rod Webber told several Somalian-American teens he pulled over that they were being arrested because "I feel like arresting you," that he was a racist and "I’m proud of it," and that if the American military had "finished the job," then "you guys wouldn’t be over here right ...

Blackjack's Thread of Illness and Ailments

Theoretically? Yes. In actuality? You need to make whatever decisions you deem best. Perhaps a boating trip is in order? I am not aware of any active federal efforts to go after medical MJ gun owners, which by this point must be in the tens of thousands if not more. Some states have expressly passed...

Wine, Scotch, Rum, Tequila, Vodka, and the like

If one can find it, George Dickel No. 12 is superior to any other Tennessee Whiskey produced by Jack Daniels. Unfortunately, in PA I believe it's a special-order item and is not regularly stocked in the state stores.

Blackjack's Thread of Illness and Ailments

PA has no law against firearm ownership for a MMJ patient. Federal law does. I can't buy a gun if I have a MMJ card. But I can already own one. Respectfully, that is not correct. Under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(3), it is unlawful for any person who is an "unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled sub...

There are plenty of racks on the market to keep bags separated during cooking, and I've also used this scissor-type pot-lid holder to hold bags during cooking. Works pretty well, and it hasn't rusted on me yet.

Blackjack's Thread of Illness and Ailments

Just a friendly reminder, in case it might be applicable to anyone, that according to the BATFE, firearms ownership and medical marijuana are mutually incompatible. You must pick one or the other. According to the feds, the use of medical marijuana classes you as an “unlawful user of or addicted to ...

Mr. Galligan is a colossal douchebag. He made a premeditated decision to ruin another person's college plans and dreams over a slur. A slur that not only wasn't directed at him, but a slur that wasn't directed at any black person at all. And he's not sorry in the slightest. To the contrary, he's "sa...

Just speculating, but this doesn't feel like terrorism to me. I'd be looking to see if any of the businesses on that block (especially AT&T) might have recently fired a problematic employee.

I didn't buy myself a new gun, and I didn't buy a new holster for another gun, which I don't own anyway because it was lost years ago in a boating accident. Plus I bought myself some lined cargo sweatpants to wear around the house. I wore a pair out shoveling and stayed nice and toasty.

Thanks everyone. It was a good frozen pizza.

On the ham subject, I never really try to get too close to the bone or get all the meat off the bone when carving, because that way there's plenty of meat on the bone when you use it to make beans or stew a couple days later.
