Two good posts Alta.  I had not heard of Skylab being brought down by the reasons you mentioned. Makes sense.

I've been a backbacking and mountaineering freak since my teens. Of course this was long before we had GPS and I became really good at reading maps and navigating. I rarely ever hiked trails favoring bushwhacking instead.  As it is important for accurately using a compass related to a map I've been tracking the shift of the magnetic poles for many decades. They've been freaking out about this for along time. That it has more recently accelerated the shift I believe is of great concern.  Coincidentally, I've been reading a lot the last few months about the mysteries of planetary magnetism. Science is still very much stumped by the models which predict how these fields are created.  Reading NASA's and other scientist's explanation of this it becomes clear that they really don't know how this works. You can read a theory presented nearly as fact and then at the end they will admit they really don't know.  The predictions for these fields are formed and which Solar bodies should and should not have magnetic fields seems to never pan out. Our predictions of which planets and moons will or will not have a magnetic field is often wrong. This pretty much shoots down our models.  Supposedly the molten iron core of this planet creates a dynamo generating the magnetic field, which we could not live on the surface without. If we lose this magnetic field most of us will die. only those with a ticket to one of the hundreds of underground bunkers will stand a chance at living. Another possibility is the poles seem on their way to flipping, which is something science has recorded clearly in the geologic record as having happened repeatedly.  This would most likely cause a physical pole shift related to it which would happen very rapidly, again destroying most life on the surface. I've heard for decades rumors that this upcoming pole shift is well known in the MIC circles and explains why they've been building so many underground bases.  The fact is that this Earth has gone through many sudden and severe changes in the past dropping us back to the stone age. Evidence of one or more very advanced civilizations in the past that ended for some reason is quite clear. Numerous ancient writings tell the tales of these. The great flood being just one example which is found in many, many writings.

Hopefully the Capitals will win at least one more cup before we get wiped out.   :praying:

I would've loved to seen pelosi's face melt today when she got Trumps notice that she wasn't using a government jet to fly oversees for week in the middle of a shut down

This on the other hand was the Guggenheims most successful show, Art of The Motorcycle ran in 1998...




"Average attendance was at 45 percent higher than normal, with over 4,000 visitors daily, and more than 5,000 people a day visiting on the weekends. Total attendance at the New York museum was 301,037, the largest in the history of the Guggenheim, prompting the ad-hoc show at the Chicago Field Museum, where advance tickets were sold for the first time. That show was followed by runs at Guggenheim Bilbao and Guggenheim Las Vegas. The name The Art of the Motorcycle and some associated media content was subsequently licensed for shows at Wonders: The Memphis International Cultural Series and the Orlando Museum of Art. Many of the same bikes appeared at these venues. Attendance at the Chicago exhibition was 320,000, the highest since The Treasures of Tutankhamuntwo decades before. Attendance at the next venue, Bilbao, was over 3/4 million, and at Las Vegas, over 250,000, making the tour's total attendance among the top 5 exhibitions ever in a museum. Many attendees attracted to these shows had never been to any museum before. Copies of the exhibition's lavish, large-format 427-page color catalog outsold any museum catalog yet, with over 250,000 copies in print as of 2005."

Hehehe this is awesome, (as usual from Ben), but what cracks me up about these socialist lunatics, is it is just marketing via fantasy.   Forget the ideology as far fetched as it is, they have NO, absolutely ZERO plans on how there dog and pony show WILL be implemented, because it can’t be!


Even if, IF, this horseshit got through, every insurance company,map-practice insurance pharmaceutical company, and DUR company, even Med Schools will sell off and/or relocate to another country while laying off MILLIONS and hiding the money their dog and pony show requires, before the government could legally go after them.


Look, you can’t argue that reasonable healthcare affordablity and availability for every (documented US citizen) would be ideal to economy and society as a whole, but the reality is for the forseable future that is just a “good idea”, and not remotely realistic for the forseable future

 What was wrong with the U.S. health care system could've been fixed with a 5-10 page bill before the democrats made it worse. Tort law reform- Making the loser pay court costs of both parties would've severely cut down on frivolous malpractice suits, which in turn would help keep costs down as the number one cost of health care is insurance. Competition- Allow health care providers to compete across state lines. Competition always results in a better product at a lower cost. But instead of tackling something difficult like ambulance chasing lawyers, the democrats ruined a large part of our economy. It is so bad they stopped calling it obamacare by 2014.

Maybe the socialist DNC run media would stop being accused of hating America if they stop proving they hate America...

this is the advert they wanted to run but CBS denied them air time, which is worth watching ....

I have an uncle that got drafted for Vietnam. I don't know how he did it but he served his entire obligation at the DMZ.

I think you misunderstand, as far as I know there is only one DMZ, in Korea, he got drafted for the war but never saw the war. I've never heard him complain about it, other than the crap WWII surplus equipment they were stuck with. All the new equipment went to Nam apparently

Yep makes sense now.  You had me wondering if they ever refered to anywhere on the Nam borders as a “DMZ” throughout its many “changes’ as the North pushed down, but  I was daydrinkin and figured you knew what you where talking about, so I musta just forgot 🤣

If you haven’t seen the Roger Stone documentary on Netfilix . . .   

I didn’t know much about him, but holy shit!!!  The man is a fuckin strategic genius!!
(and he and I think alike!!)

Attacking and exploiting  the enemy’s weakness while misdirecting them from and defending yours.  Mostly by manipulating you’re enemy , and firing up supporters with the deliberate and calculatied over the top claims.

He knew the Dems where counting on the most important drnograhic that have, pretty much, every election, the middle class/lower high class males ($7O-$300k) as a guarenteed demographic, because we voted against the Teaparty and $7 per gal gas as  guaranteed votes . . .

Stone saw this glaring weakness  an executed a perfect ambush.

I knew pieces of this since 2016, saw the patterns, connections,and where it started, but I didn’t think any one person could have done this on such a massive scale, or without high office or owning a media outlet.

The Dems or their strategists where never this smart.

They didn’t even see, or push hard enough for, releasing Seal Team Six killing that mother fuckin haji Bin Laden. 

Really if in a debate, Cuntin would showed the video (that she watched live) of Seal 6 killing that son of a camal, said  she was Sec of State,wad proud to give/approve that order and if elected this will happen to anyone who even so much as thinks of trying to do what he did  she’d of probably won.

Hillary has a head to display to those who wanted one, Trump didn’t. But not utilizing an advance and exploiting a weakness on the grounds of feelings and ideals cost the election.

“Spike the football”as Obama put it,  well Barry Sanders used to find a ref and hand it to him,(which the refs loved), but no one ever threw it in the trash to avoid hurting people’s feelings.

Maybe someone destroyed the video, but if there strategist did not see this opportunity, pushed for it to be a campaign image, then those deplorable idioex deserved  the losing .

Regardless of a video that would have won the election, (which, I the Dems may or may/not  have destroyed ),  I’ll tell ya one thing, if I ever meet Roger Stone, he will NOT pay for a single drink! Agree with/like him or not, he’s a badass genius!

“I revel in you’re hatred, because if I wherent effective, you wouldn’t hate me”— Roger Stone

Regardless if you agree, or like him, if you don’t respect, admire, or inspire his abilities,  it’s your own damn fault and why you loose

Yes, Roger Stone is cool, calculated political genius, and he has no fear.   I've been watching and listening to him for a long time. He sometimes comes across as an aloof braggart, but he is everything he claims to be and then some.  I do not see him going to prison.  If necessary President Trump will pardon him for any manufactured crime the insane Mueller probe might throw at him.
