[Used Movie Sets] The new movie The Harder They Fall used the same church as Alec Baldwin’s movie Rust. There are two churches in the movie and one of them is the Rust church. They also used the sets from other Western movies. One in particular is the set where three times a day stuntmen reenact a gunfight and brawl for tourists. Stupid movie. |
[Off The Deep End] Watching the events regarding the Rittenhouse shooting in Wisconsin. You have to be kidding! A person shows up to a demonstration in a US city, carrying a loaded AR15 type weapon, and fires upon others, and now is trying to claim it’s self-defense? I’m all for the 2nd Amendment, but it was not written for these crazies to bring anarchy. Additionally, it’s “All Lives Matter”, not a subgroup, or minority, or even a majority. This world’s going off the deep end. |
![]() [Rip-Off Nation] Not only are prices doubling, but products are shrinking. I bought this formally 8 ounce yogurt, that is now 5.3 ounces, and when I opened it, it was a third empty! I haven’t stirred it, this is how it was. |
[“The House approved a $1.85 trillion infrastructure package”] Deer Ed, When you post a Newsmax[?] article it should be on the politics page. (Ed: That post was not political. Nor was it in any way opinion. It was fact. It was factual news. A real big deal for our country. I’m sorry you are disappointed that the country is moving forward so fast. Look at it as, now we can work on our other problems.) |
![]() [Fueling Up] It was inevitable, instead of carrying a gas can, electric vehicle owners carry a generator. Are we moving forward or backward? |
[Friday Joke] A man was working on his motorcycle on the patio, his wife nearby in the kitchen. While racing the engine, the motorcycle accidentally slipped into gear. The man, still holding onto the handlebars, was dragged along as it burst through the glass patio doors. His wife, hearing the crash, ran in the room to find her husband cut and bleeding, the motorcycle, and the shattered patio door. She called for an ambulance and, because the house sat on a fairly large hill, went down the several flights of stairs to meet the paramedics and escort them to her husband. While the attendants were loading her husband, the wife managed to right the motorcycle and push it outside. She also quickly blotted up the spilled gasoline with some paper towels and tossed them into the toilet. After being treated and released, the man returned home, looked at the shattered patio door and the damage done to his motorcycle. He went into the bathroom and consoled himself with a cigarette while attending to his business. About to stand, he flipped the butt between his legs. The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard a loud explosion and her husband screaming. Finding him lying on the bathroom floor with his trousers blown away and burns on his buttocks, legs and groin, she once again phoned for an ambulance. The same paramedic crew was dispatched. As the paramedics carried the man down the stairs to the ambulance, they asked the wife how he had come to burn himself. She told them. They started laughing so hard, one slipped, the stretcher dumping the husband out. He fell down the remaining stairs, breaking his arm. |
