Ivanhoe Posted May 30 Posted May 30 If Dad wants Junior to make it alive to college graduation, a V-6 'Stang is just the thing. Plus that snug cabin and front buckets reduce the odds he's get some girl pregnant. Get Junior one of these classics and its guaranteed Dad will become Grandad within a year;

Was my grandfather's. I still ahve it and it's going to get restored when I have the shop time. It'll need a lot of body work as it's got some rot in spots. 400 Small Block. The above example looks like maybe a '77 based on the extra front corner marker lights. Mine's a '76. Even has the captains chairs that swivel.
Ivanhoe Posted May 30 Posted May 30 Nice. The Monte Carlo concept (which to me is a luxury/sport coupe) was magic in a bottle. Comfortable roomy interior, giant trunk big enough for 2 weeks of luggage (or 3 bodies), big-block V-8. And the Chevy stylists made it look good.
Ivanhoe Posted May 31 Posted May 31 Not flesh-eating locusts, but just as annoying; https://www.zerohedge.com/weather/cicada-swarm-begins-rare-emergence-eastern-us-after-17-years-underground If you haven't experience a cicada season, it is different. They "buzz" at pretty extreme noise levels, to the point where it interferes with conversation. When its all over, there is the cleanup.
Ivanhoe Posted May 31 Posted May 31 The "black fatigue" thing keeps getting better and better. Black American gal posts bigoted nonsense on Tiktok, Africans absolutely torch her in her comments section; Some months ago I watched a YT video where a middle-aged black American woman had moved to Africa, Ghana maybe. Anyways, she tabulated a long list of expenses and things she didn't expect, and a lack of welcoming. She found out that middle class here didn't translate into nouveau riche there.
rmgill Posted May 31 Posted May 31 One of Oleg Volk’s models is from East Africa. Her comment on racism here is that its yawn worthy and barely noticable. She’s escaped 4 civil wars across 4 nations her family escaped from in Africa and she noted how just going to the next village could get you murdered for having the wrong shape nose (tribal differences). Black Americans moving to Africa are in for rude awakenings when encountering that they are not from accepted tribes.

He used it to drive back and forth to work.

Roman Alymov Posted June 3 Posted June 3 Interesting view from former Ukr Parliament member (and ex- Ukr Presidential candidate) https://t.me/olegtsarov/28760 "The Yanukovych effect. Interestingly, the Yanukovych phenomenon seems to have occurred with the perception of Trump by others. Yanukovych behaved like a macho man, looked like a macho man. Decisive action was expected from a two-meter tall, one hundred and twenty kilogram man with a criminal past from Donetsk: "Donbass does not speak empty words." But in practice, it turned out that he was not capable of decisive action. Trump was expected to turn the situation in the United States around, to disperse and shame his enemies. About a dozen criminal cases were initiated against him, his home was searched, defamed in the media, two impeachments, and several assassination attempts. He endured everything and received amazing support from the American people. He has a majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate. They thought that now he would take revenge on his enemies, the enemies of the United States. But no. Trump spent the time after the election, when the enemy was demoralized, celebrating his victory. Then he made some chaotic statements. He got bogged down in court decisions. I didn't finish anything. He grabbed at one question, not finishing, and took on another. And now he is losing support both in the country and among congressmen. I remember very well how during the Maidan, foreign leaders literally hung on Yanukovych's hands — just don't disperse the Maidan. Three phone calls a day. As a result, Yanukovych has not decided to do what he was supposed to do, is legally obliged to do — to restore order in the country. But everyone who called him back then was his enemy. His and Ukraine's. But Yanukovych talked to them, moreover, he listened to them. About the same thing is happening with Trump now, when he talks with Macron, Starmer. I recently talked to Ursula von der Leyen and was pleased with the conversation. There is a time—tested folk wisdom that says if you behave like Yanukovych, you will end up like Yanukovych. Trump, act like Lukashenko, stop chewing snot, don't be Yanukovych."
Murph Posted June 6 Posted June 6 Unless and Until people start going to prison for the crimes Obama/Biden and their communist minions committed, and unless and until FBI agents and DOJ lawyers start going to prison, then it is just the same old same old.
Rick Posted June 7 Posted June 7 Whether you like, dislike or are neutral about Elon Musk, his "interviews" vs "reporter" Don Lemon is why Lemon is no longer a "reporter." Musk shows how to handle the media. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_D7I4Mi2hU https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1NyTMLsIZdk https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hvrwW7cnE7w https://www.youtube.com/shorts/HBMeV6AVN3w https://www.youtube.com/shorts/G09iUxUFsV0
Ivanhoe Posted June 7 Posted June 7 https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/charts-signal-time-reload The problem with using retail ammo prices as an indicator for everything is that there is the .mil/.gov demand vs .com demand, and also all those dang supply chain issues (I have read that China is restricting sales of nitrocellulose, dunno if true). However, the data are interesting. I assume the following price per cartridge is for plain jane .223 Remington 55gr FMJ;
Mr King Posted June 8 Author Posted June 8 I post this with the caveat that I am also a fat ass, but I'm not in the military.

Ivanhoe Posted June 14 Posted June 14 I'm making an assumption, but... https://nypost.com/2025/06/13/world-news/tourist-sits-on-and-shatters-van-gogh-chair-adorned-with-hundreds-of-swarovski-crystals/ Quote A foolish tourist in Italy sat on a chair adorned with thousands of Swarovski crystals for a photo op, crushing the precious work of art beneath his weight. Instead of lowering himself and pretending to sit for the photo — like the woman accompanying him had done — security video shows a man deciding to go for it and sit down. The chair crumbled under his weight, as he lost his balance, trying to hold on to the wall with both hands so he didn’t fall.
rmgill Posted June 14 Posted June 14 Meh...it's a chair with synthetic crystals glued all over it. Modern art...meh....
Ivanhoe Posted June 14 Posted June 14 I know, more distraught pearl-clutching for this thing than for those classic paintings damaged by the Snot Oil crowd.
Murph Posted June 17 Posted June 17 Fark yes! About time! Trump tells Democrap slave cities: You break it, you pay for it!" About farking time. https://pjmedia.com/david-manney/2025/06/16/you-break-it-you-buy-it-trump-and-duffy-make-sanctuary-cities-own-their-chaos-n4940865 Thanks to President Trump’s Department of Transportation, led by Sean Duffy, the American taxpayer is no longer on the hook for reckless, lawless, sanctuary city policies. On June 16, Duffy dropped the hammer: any state or city that obstructs ICE, that actively thwarts federal immigration enforcement, or that fails to protect federal infrastructure from destruction will be cut off from federal transportation dollars. No highways. No EV charging stations. No airport grants. You break the law, you break the deal. You break it. You buy it.
