Are you friends with your neighbors?
ExiledInIllinois replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I wonder what @BringBackFergy @Cripple Creek & @mead107 think of @Gugny 's exact numbers & neighborhood assessment? How many unattended smokers & grills are there? If only @\GoBillsInDallas/ could help! -

The problem sounds like it's you. LoL... Who on God's Flat Earth has an assessment of their neighbors like this? ? -

I mow my neighbor's lawn he mows mine... Both sides. Same with shoveling... They both have blowers. They blow me. I shovel them... I get off a lot... So I bring their cans in on Wednesday... You sound like my FiL... He "speaks" to his neighbors... Which means a terse flick of wrist, wave and nod of head. You sound like my FiL... He "speaks" to his neighbors... Which means a terse flick of wrist, wave and nod of head. Ooops... Sorry for x2 post. I am like "Visa"... "Everywhere." -

Yes. They are older, both sides. 60s & 70s. Have each other's keys, codes... To watch pets, get mail, emergency, etc... When gone. -
Of course can't stop carp. Nor should we. I mean... The Lakes are melted glaciers. They were nearly sterile to begin with... How did other species get in. Right now L.Michigan is the highest in 47 years. If left alone, canals uncontrolled, it would be mixing, spilling over with Mississippi watershed water. What about the other 100+ invasives that came in since 1959 & opening of Seaway? Thats almost 2 per year. NOT one has made it north through Illinois in a 100+ years of the Chicago canals. Until maybe now. We'll survive. @BringBackFergy @Cripple Creek @\GoBillsInDallas/

Fiftieth Anniversary of Apollo 11 Moon Landing

They were also taking huge chances, risks. I liken it to how we used to drive. Every year my wife's family would load up the VW SquareBack and head to ADKs... The four children, rear seat down... Every thing for the week. They bought nothing in Long Lake. The food, clothes, my BiL's Tonka® trucks, the case of Genny, the watermelon... Three girls, baby brother... Cramned into the VW for the 6 hour journey. One stop for lunch. Then roll into Long Lake. My wife would stand behind my FiL as he drove... And this is before they "splurged" and got a roof-rack after 5 years! You know... The first thing they did pulling into Cabin, even before unloading VDub? They went to Saturday Evening Mass! That's how we went to The Moon! They had a leaky valve and were banging on it with wrenches... Then "just" bypassed it. It was a different era... Do we, fly down highway 60 miles an hour with a loaded SquareBack and kids sprawled amongst the luggage in back, now? HELL NO. We are buckled into a $55,000 BMW! -
Why... I am a Pollock. But more German... Ankle biter Pomeranian... The Cheektowaga/East Side Pollock runs deep in me. My Parents were married in a Polish Church, announced in a Polish Newspaper... My grandmother said confession in Polish till 1994 when she was 84. The brutally Pollock in me runs deep!!! I married Daygo-South BFLo Mick... Go figure!

Who are they going to draw from in a society that is moving away from conservative, structured values...

I don't watch MSM... Can't remember when I watched TV News. YESTERDAY was first in months... And only because CNN was running "Apollo11"... Coincidence. FOX, CNN... Hollywood... They are all a fraud. Sorry to go all @Deranged Rhino on you... It's not a conspiracy, Deep State, just how things run when the "machines" grow "legs." Now my 80 something in-laws... They are glued to the News. MSNBC, CNN... At least their NOT FOX racists, haters, horrible human hypocrites. In their 80s, very conservative... But always left. Pro-labor, pro-decent working man, pro-enviro... True church going, god fearing people that actually listen to the weekly sermon and live what is preached... Unlike the hypocrite status driven, hate filled hypocrite Right, GOP... True role models on the Left.

We know we lost the Battle of Bunker Hill... The birth of the Corps before that battle had proved to the British that the Colonists shouldn't be taken lightly even out manned and out gunned. The British suffered losses almost 3x as many men with a force that was 1/3 greater. The victory rang hollow. ESSAYONS!

No. Finally calling it what it is. The right who support our racist POTUS are horrible human beings. Hillary was right, "Basket of Deplorables." These people know they are horrible humans... They are just in denial because they have no shame and can't look inward at their souls. Even worse the ones that hide behind the Christian faith or hide behind the cloak of patriotism. Hypocrites, lemmings following a demagogue that are horrible humans. Let's start calling it for what it really is. Sorry to offend the Deplorable Snowflake.

There is no invasion. It's a government boondoggle.

You.

So racism will win out. Claim being non-racist... Yet you vote for racists. LoL...
-
Oh voy. Yes, sarcastic about Poland. Not sarcastic about Trump. Of course he's racist. And people who vote for him are too. That's how the whole "basket of deplorables" thing got started Now... We all gotta run off and protest vote because feelings are hurt that people can't look inward at their own demons. At least it's not Hillary! Anybody but Hillary!

No. You are an idiot if you can't see the GOP is racist. They have to be. They are losing grip on power. They need to limit voters, immigration... Immigrants are poor... They won't vote racist GOP. That's why the GOP loves disenfranchising people... Especially voters. No way in hell they vote for what is soon to be marginalized racist beliefs. The GOP needs to send them back. Can't have people becoming citizens and voting their special interest out!
