Interesting watching interviews with several residents of Martha's Vineyard. They were quite aware of what was happening in Texas and along our border. They were aghast at their fellow residents turning their back on these illegal immigrants given the problems along our southern border. These people had to be in the minority of MV residents although I'm sure the others know the same but NIMBY.

They'll be on the next bus out.

Pretty sure Barr lied to protect his family. Don’t think for one second they don’t threaten your entire family to disappear if you don’t comply.
And not to become a pariah within his DC establishment friends and colleagues. His and his family's entire life would have gone up in smoke. Plus, he would not be invited to Christmas parties.

Beware of AT&T.

I changed my Mom's bundled TV, internet and phone service from ATT to Spectrum and saved $100 per month for life. She's 97. I attempted to cancel her accounts yesterday. I found it impossible to cancel the entire bundle with one agent. I had to call TV, tele and internet individually and stay on hold for 20-30 minutes with each before speaking with a live person. Then wade through at least 3 disconnections and had to start over.

I found out that each service was on a different cycle and didn't start or stop on the same day of the cycle notwithstanding she got one bill for all and paid only one payment per month. First example of ATT bullshit.

When I called the internet people I was told since yesterday was the first day of the new billing cycle and Mom would be charged for the next cycle even though she no longer has service. There also was no pro-ration. That it was company policy and nobody could waive that. The woman also said, "you should have called yesterday". Grrrrr... She refused to transfer me to a supervisor despite many requests to do so. Second example of ATT bullshit and certainly disrespect.

The telephone call was interesting. I wanted to cancel and was repeatedly told ATT didn't have her service and that her phone number belonged to Time-Warner (Spectrum). The agent would not tell me anything about when the switch occurred and said there was no way for her to cancel the service. Mom was emailed from ATT on 9/14 (the day I changed her to Spectrum) saying changes had been made to her account. Obviously, that was when Spectrum ported her phone number to them. We have the email which I will use as proof they were notified and should be the date of cancellation.

Point is ATT is the devil.

Free lunch theory. These folks have no respect for the hard won knowledge gained by humans over mellenia.

Just like the guaranteed income push going on. Throughout all of history, humans have had to work. At least a large percentage. I don't think abandoning that concept will turn out well for us.

Interested to see how this affects NWFL. When I moved here in 2015 I wish I had the cash to buy up the 1000s of foreclosed condos from Destin to PCB. Now you can't find one for a decent price. Also new home starts are way off but demand is growing. Military community that has been priced out of the market by Northeast Money moving down and paying cash way over asking. Affordable housing isn't available........
Here in central FLA they are building on every square inch of land that they can find. It does not seem that things are slowing down very much here in real estate.

It’s more of a reflection on their inability to collate services they acquired and spun off into a single seamless solution. It’s not nefarious.

At 4.4 Miles, Wyoming Team Sets New Rifle Shot World Record



From the pull of the trigger, roughly 24 seconds elapsed before forward spotters heard the telltale plunk of a 422-grain copper bullet piercing the thin metal target.

The shooter was 4.4 miles away, a distance so great, the Earth’s rotation came into play.
It was a new world record for a rifle shot, set by the Jackson-based Nomad Rifleman team led by Schott Austin and Shepard Humphries. The shot was made with a custom-built rifle chambered for the .416 Barrett cartridge.

The .416 Barrett cartridge is made by “necking down” a .50 Browning Machine Gun (BMG) round to accommodate the roughly .40-caliber bullet. It’s a relatively short, stout bullet that proved ideal for its purpose, Humphries said.

“Traditionally in extreme long-range shooting, we wanted long, skinny bullets,” he said. “However, we discovered that as a bullet crosses over into subsonic velocity, it flies better if it’s shorter and fatter.”

The .416 Barret bullets were leaving the rifle’s muzzle at a velocity of roughly 3,300 feet per second, Humphries said. They dropped into subsonic velocity at about 1,100 feet per second and were traveling at a downward angle and about 600 feet per second as they reached the target zone.

Confirmed. They pull that next cycle BS to squeeze every drop out of you as you leave.
