I just ate the last Morningstar Grillers Prime burger. They've now new-improved it, putting back the soyburger taste that they'd removed, meaning that brand is out.
I suppose the breaded and spicy ones are still okay. They have masking flavors.
So, one thing I've wondered about since the Kayne stuff: Does the GOP/Trump actually have a plan to run black Republicans? I honestly have no idea, though given 'the stupid party', I'm not confident they are. If someone is plugged in and does know, I would like to hear.
To my mind, this is the year to find black vets, ideally running fairly well known local businesses, and put them up against people like Maxine Waters and Jim Clyburn. Maybe they wouldn't win, but like Jack Handey said carpet bowling: my God, we've got to try something!
So, did Stormy's "lawyer" tender the $130K payment she received in the nondisclosure as a condition precedent to seeking to invalidate the agreement?
If not, and I assume not, if this were pending in a Georgia court, I could get that sucker dismissed in a heartbeat. I assume this topic has been discussed, but I haven't seen said discussion.
Maybe Avenatti has been too busy building his TV resume to respond to the motion to dismiss or to attend hearings.

So I guess that it would come as a surprise to you that half the black senators are Republican? There are also two black Republican members of Congress.
McCain seems concerned that his role in the Obama/Clinton/DNC effort (e.g. spying, colluding with foreign agents, gerrymandering the vote) to disenfranchise Americans and social justice adventures (e.g. regime change through sodomy, opening abortion fields, trail of tears or progressive torture campaigns to cover-up the collateral damage, saving and creating wars), will be exposed with a change in the CIA administration, as it was with a removal of Obama's allies at the FBI. Then there is the illegal domestic spying by the administration and security agencies.
Does the GOP/Trump actually have a plan to run black Republicans?
Why? To fill the diversity (e.g. racial) quotas? Color judgments should be left to the Left, the liberal sects, the progressive sects, the twilighters of the Pro-Choice Church. The Republicans should support people (i.e. individuals) based on their character (e.g. principles), not the color of their skin. There has already been too much unqualified progress, which has been notably liberal (i.e. divergent).
1963 Bob Dylan walks out on The Ed Sullivan Show By the end of the summer of 1963, Bob Dylan would be known to millions who watched or witnessed his performances at the March on Washington, and millions more who did not know Dylan himself would know and love his music thanks to Peter, Paul and Mary’s smash-hit cover version of “Blowin’ In The Wind.” But back in May, Dylan was still just another aspiring musician with a passionate niche following but no national profile whatsoever. His second album, The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan, had not yet been released, but he had secured what would surely be his big break with an invitation to perform on The Ed Sullivan Show. That appearance never happened. On May 12, 1963, the young and unknown Bob Dylan walked off the set of the country’s highest-rated variety show after network censors rejected the song he planned on performing.
The song that caused the flap was “Talkin’ John Birch Paranoid Blues,” a satirical talking-blues number skewering the ultra-conservative John Birch Society and its tendency to see covert members of an international Communist conspiracy behind every tree. Dylan had auditioned “John Birch” days earlier and had run through it for Ed Sullivan himself without any concern being raised. But during dress rehearsal on the day of the show, an executive from the CBS Standards and Practices department informed the show’s producers that they could not allow Dylan to go forward singing “John Birch.” While many of the song’s lyrics about hunting down “reds” were merely humorous—”Looked up my chimney hole/Looked down deep inside my toilet bowl/They got away!“—others that equated the John Birch Society’s views with those of Adolf Hitler raised the fear of a defamation lawsuit in the minds of CBS’s lawyers. Rather than choose a new number to perform or change his song’s lyrics—as the Rolling Stones and the Doors would famously do in the years to come—Dylan stormed off the set in angry protest.
Or so goes the legend that helped establish Dylan’s public reputation as an artist of uncompromising integrity. In reality, Bob Dylan was polite and respectful in declining to accede to the network’s wishes. “I explained the situation to Bob and asked him if he wanted to do something else,” recalls Ed Sullivan Show producer Bob Precht, “and Bob, quite appropriately, said ‘No, this is what I want to do. If I can’t play my song, I’d rather not appear on the show.'” It hardly mattered whether Dylan’s alleged tantrum was fact or reality. The story got widespread media attention in the days that followed, causing Ed Sullivan himself to denounce the network’s decision in published interviews. In the end, however, the free publicity Bob Dylan received may have done more for his career than his abortive national-television appearance scheduled for this day in 1963 ever could have

I thought it was excessive logs. Those things are dangerous !

Feels a bit ... tropical here in SE NC this AM. Gonna be 82, but prolly feel like 92.
Not complaining.
The dog's nickname is Stormy.
Tank, I went out at 8 to do some yard work here in the Piedmont. By 9, the sweat was dripping down my glasses and my shirt was soaked.
Your shotgun scatter data becomes a line with a slope on log log graph paper.
If you follow Golf - tiger woods is on fire at the TPC.
Not bad for a 42 y/o with a bad back.
I decided to cut half my lawn today. The front yard now has 2-foot stripes. In a week I will raise the mower an inch and finalize the two levels.
It looks like the sort of thing that any redneck might be inspired to do.

Beauty of a dog. Seem Inga wants monarchical though. Crazy liberals.

I went out to admire my lawn this evening, and right there in the middle of my two stripes, a dog (a mighty big dog) took a crap.
I mean it's a big dark pile on my light green grass.
I know who's dog it is, and they are going to get a present in their fuck'n mailbox.
You sure it's dog crap?
It could be someone had an involuntary physical reaction to striped lawns, in which case you should be ashamed.
It's a good thing to vary the direction you mow, so why not cross-hatch?
