Father Time - undefeated all time.

Not sure, but Obama stopped the rising of the tide, and that's not nothin'.

Drago said...

It's looking like Joey B. really really really needs that secret earpiece tonight.......

Bob Boyd said...

Biden doesn't want anyone to look in his ears because he knows they'll be able to see all the way through.

Dunno, but I hear there's a bathroom on the right..

Wince said...

Please tell me that isn't the start of a "mime in a box" routine.

Guns n Roses, Credence...it's cock rock week for cafe post titles?

pacwest said...

30 minute breaks, no earpiece check. I'd say the Biden crew is being crafty with this trying to lower expectations, but they've not shown any indication of believing Biden can perform like a normal human so far. Biden may be having one of his 'bad days'.

He was releasing Mendota's Kraken. Or trying to.

Yesterday, I was chased out of the outdoor dog park for failing to wear a mask.

This mask shit has to be the greatest hoax since Orson Welles, and his "War of the Worlds War" broadcast.

The plexiglass shields at the grocery store check-out tells me we've reached peak cone-of-silence stupid.

I just got a card from VK5MAV/6, Abrolhos Islands, Australia, confirming a contact. I don't do cards anymore (since the 50s) but this one was nice because it's the farthest point of land in the world from me, at 11,213 miles. There are farther places but not on land. Proof that 15 watts gets out.

I'm not the farthest point of land from him, though.

I'll send a card if the guy requests one but that's extremely rare. Nobody wants Ohio. An occasional worked-all-counties guy, is all.

I wouldn't mind someone doing that in Tucson, 98 again today.

The sun is undefeated in my lifetime. Obscured sometimes, as it was by fog this morning, but it still rose.

If Trump tweeted that the sun rose for him today; I suspect Judge Gleeson would tell Judge Sullivan that the sun needed to be stopped in order to stop Trump.

Narayanan said...

Will they do Mission Impossible mask on Joe Biden lookalike tonight?

I am holding my breath.

Jay Vogt said...

I thought it was "Who'll Stop the Rain".

As long as I remember
The rain's been comin' down
Clouds of mystery pourin'
Confusion on the ground

There's been so much focus on how the candidates will appear (Will Biden seem senile? Will Trump seem angry or stupid?), that no one talks about what they will say. Biden, more so than Trump, has something to lose on this: Biden has been pretty coy about saying how he comes down on policy issues (against fracking? in favor of limiting automobile use? a carbon tax? nuclear power? defunding police? only in cities that don't institute BIden approved police training, etc., jail the rioters?, eliminate cash bond?). SO there is a bigger chance that the debate will provide clarity (or at least clear statements, later to be rescinded) on issues that will turn off middle of the road voters, or will cause outrage among the left for not being tough enough. I think people have a much better idea of how Trump stands on issues, so the debate (assuming no big character/behavior lapses) has more potential pitfalls for Biden than for Trump. I do think Wallace will make a diligent stab at trying to pin Biden down, and Trump also has the chance to point out that Biden refused to answer a straightforward question.

Well, gee, I'm suspended from twitter.

I guess I was enjoying it too much.

I was watching a documentary on the domestication of the dog, and did you know that it was a girl wolf that decided to become domesticated and a clever woman who accepted this offer, even though the stupid men were all trying to drive the first wolf off with sticks, the woman told them to calm down, and tamed the wolf.

If it weren’t for the girls, we would still be living in caves without even dogs to help us hunt. I am sure of it because it’s “science."

12 Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.

13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.

14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel.

The Simpsons may have had a giant disk blocking the sun, but Joshua did it first.

Person, woman, man, camera, damn, what's the fifth thing?

Who will stop the sun? That's a manly job befitting Helios - not Shelios.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

Someone needs to check Biden's ears for the first debate.

It's not hard to believe that cheaters, liars and crooks.... cheat.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

Biden's weird ear lobe + he says : "OK I lost that line"

You tell me if these D-aholes are cheating.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

huh?

"Joe Biden's handlers several days ago agreed to a pre-debate inspection for electronic earpieces but today abruptly reversed themselves and declined.
...
Biden's handlers have asked for multiple breaks during the debate, which President Trump doesn't need, so we have rejected that request. On top of the refusal to take a drug test, it seems pretty obvious that the Biden team is looking for any safety net they can find in the hours leading up to the debate. With his 47 years as a failed Washington politician, how much help does Biden want?"

"Who will stop the sun?"

The Horizon! The Horizon will stop the sun.

Thank God for the Horizon.

Yes, but it is dry heat. LOL!

I am really tired of the heat this year, but I was always tired of Midwest humidity about this time as well.

I am trying to imagine wearing long pants and shoes again because since May I HAVE BEEN WEARING SHORTS AND SANDALS.

tcrosse said...

Lots of Biden ads on TV, no Trump ads, even though I sent money. Maybe I'm watching the wrong channels.

Tim-in-vermont. It wasn't just a woman (who saved the world) it was a wise Latina woman.

According to Rudyard Kipling, something similar occurred with cats.

And then MainSewerNews and twitter would report that the sun had been stopped but that Trump was denying it and his flyover deplorable were blindly repeating his 21,000th lie.

So Brennan "briefed President Obama and other senior national security officials” about the intelligence, including the “alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on July 26, 2016 of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by Russian security services."

In January, Obama told the FBI to keep after Trump.

At what point between July 2016 and January 2017 did Obama, Rice and Jarrett, knowing of the Hillary-instigated vilification campaign, sign on to the effort and decide to help stir up the scandal?

Narayanan said...

My gut feeling is Biden has been faking demented all this long - OSCAR WORTHY REALLY

Will Ann be live blogging the debate?

Thank you for the needed laugh! Used to play in a bar band and we always sang "Bad Moon" that way - and no one ever noticed! Also sang the real lyrics to "Good Girls Don't"...

I spent a week of my life working on this.

"Who will stop the sun?"

Joe Biden has a plan for that.
