Cain's Convincing Fla. Straw Poll Win



6/19/26:

Limbaugh and Cain are no longer with us. The Grim Reaper must always be paid.

Don't fear the Reaper... gotta keep a step ahead.

Refutes Press Meme That GOP Nomination Is a Two-Person Race

Herman Cain won the Florida straw poll tonight, winning the votes of 37% of those who participated. No other candidate came within 20 points of Cain 
Cain seems to do a good job expressing himself, as Perry seems to stumble at times.


Here's Limbaugh on Cain:

My goodness! This was on Christmas Eve, 2016. At that time, I was in a lot of pain. Wishbone drove me over to relatives for a Christmas visit with relations. I had to lie down the whole way. I wasn't feeling particular great at the time. Much better now!

But doing things out at the property is a horse of a different color, you might say. I feel much better, but not that much better. We'll see if something can be done about feeling better. I am losing weight from a diet, and on an exercise program to boot. Don't count me out yet.

Things could take an upswing again, and a return to this idea is not out of the question entirely. It will go away when I do. Or if I sell the property.

Returning to the original post:

Another post in the water sub series in the main off the grid series of posts.

An experiment with straws and coffee filters may have yielded a good way to filter water.  Good for my purposes, that is.

I took some rather dirty water and managed to get it much cleaner.  Still not clean enough for the distiller, though.

The water I used was even dirtier prior to this treatment.   I used a bottle of dishwater that had been sitting around for awhile.  Heavier particles had sunk to the bottom, lighter materials settled on the top.  I rigged up a straw with suction squeeze ball thingy to take the cleaner water in the middle.

The straws were then stuffed with the coffee filter paper.  It is rather slow to filter, though.  I suppose I can make a lot of straws to speed up the filtering.

Perhaps a combination of paper and activated charcoal in the straw could yield even better water.


Bzzz. Buzzzzy as a bee.

Posting is lite, I know.

So much stuff to do, and so little time. On occassions like this, a bit more organization is to be desired. If it is desired, then it must be pursued. Once it is pursued, then what?

Don't want to be like the Joker, chasing my tail.   Have plans can be a good thing.  Not into doing bad things.   Know what I mean, Vern?

AI madness



The prices for memory have indeed gone up.

What they're doing these days boggles the mind.

Anyway, Beato talks about the high price of memory because it needs memory to do his videos. The prices have skyrocketed.

Why this craze over AI? Insanity is becoming the new norm.



If that doesn't bake your bagels, get a load of this video from Tim Pool.

Pool notes that AI companies don't make money. But Elon Musk is a trillionaire! Nuts.

These folks don't know what they're doing.



Idiocracy: "President of America", Camacho speaks!

Iran US MOU

8 AM:

There's a lot of loose talk about what's in the agreement.

Too much talking, and not enough specifics. Nobody really knows what's going on until the official document is released. It hasn't been, and as for the rest of the talk, it may as well be bravo sierra. This includes Trump. But Trump decides what he's going to do next, or so he says.

It is clear that somebody is lying. If Trump is guilty of this, it's going to be very damaging to him, and I'd be very, very surprised if he thought he could get away with it, if such were the case. But it is all speculation until the actual agreement is produced. Let Trump's critics and the Iranian flap their gums all they want. They won't get to crow unless Iran is definitely coming out of this better off than before, and it is in writing, as they claim. So far, it is nothing but talk.

Not convinced that it's Trump lying. Heck, it may be both. Yet there is virtually no reason whatever for Trump to lie about the terms of the MOU. If he agreed to anything that rewards Iranian aggression, it would be very disappointing and disturbing.


Update 8 PM: :

The MOU has been signed. The agreement has still not be published. Senators say that they want to look over the deal. There's a lot of room for mischief here.

It looks political. Trump buys time for the midterms. Prices will be lower at the pump. Indeed, 2027 is projected to have gluts. Near term however, supplies will be tight.

If Iran reneges on the deal, Trump has cause to punish them. Of course there will be protests from the usual suspects.

Democrats are dying to do another Vietnam and Afghanistan. They would love to blame Trump for their own treachery. You can add the part of the GOP that opposes Trump to that company.

Anyway, the deal is shaky. It may not hold up.

Did Trump lie? If he did, it is not clear yet that he did. Even if he did, he is no worse than the Democrats. But if he really did, then it will hurt. You can be sure that the commies will do everthing they can to inflict the most damage that they can.

Senator John Cornyn Publicly Says He's Blackmailing President Trump to Gain Access to Trump Family Tax Records

The Conservative Treehouse

Summary:

This basic idea discussed: It's a uniparty. No real difference between the two parties. Two wings of the same bird, says Sundance.

Comment:

Sigh... Back to the right v left Marxist paradigm. As D'Souza said: the only difference between commies and Nazis is that the Nazis are nationalistic and the commies are internationalists. That's it. Otherwise they are for all intents and purposes, the same damned thing. This is why Cornball had to go. The only way to get them out is to keep voting them out every single time that you can.
