Damn this board is quiet lately. Did everyone get banned by Lucifer and I missed it?
Listen people. This is tax season for me. I need some distractions from the monotony. Let’s pick it up, shall we?
Damn, I need an altitude adjustment. Our CAF aircraft are in annual and won’t be done until the end of the month.

Everyone is on double secret probation.

I was wondering myself why no one is posting and why a thread was locked this morning but since reopened.

A thread was locked? Here?
What have I missed......

What thread? I don’t know if I can see that on Tapatalk since we’ve never locked a thread.

The green new deal thread. Probably an accidental button push.

I noticed that too this afternoon and wondered what had happened. Didn't know anyone could lock threads on this board...

I’m thinking Lucifer is in love with AOC and he didn’t want his girlfriend getting ridiculed.

I am a big believer in not just pointing out things, but also fixing them.
So, if the board is quiet, go grab whatever news story you are passionate about and explain why
Or else I will have to start another monkey race.

Gee, thanks Dad.
Do you try to kill threads or does it just come naturally?
-
I always assume people are having a politics-free day when that happens. You know, like life used to more or less be. And then while we were sleeping and thinking the Republic was indestructible the rabid left sank its drooling teeth into it and clamped down. And down. And down. And now we have a freaking battle between good and evil and wisdom and foolishness and ...
No more politics-free day. :(

I have a natural bend toward improving things. But I think the thread is far from over, go forth and have some fun in life.

I think the denizens have reacted to the utter boredom of the echo chamber they have inadvertently created.

I see Michael Cohen perjured himself again by testifying he never sought a pardon from the President. Also news that the DNC will not allow FOX to host a primary debate.

Neither one is surprising.

I banned myself again for a while, but I am back now.
It is obvious to me that liberals (progressives) can't defend their positions, so don't have the balls to participate.

My latest fun hobby is watching police interrogations. What fun. In nearly every one, they read the person their rights in the beginning: "You have the right to remain silent. You can stop answering questions and leave whenever you want. You can tell me to pound sand and get up and walk out of here. You can demand a lawyer, etc. etc. Do you understand?" And the person says, "Yes, I understand," and then proceeds to allow themselves to be psychologically and emotionally manipulated by the detectives and spills their guts all over the place about their crime and then gets handcuffed and hauled to jail in the end.
What is wrong with these people? Why doesn't Michael Cohen SHUT UP. He's a lawyer for chrissakes of all people he should know better.

Exactly.
Look at the latest dim clown show, the House Judiciary under Nadler. Everyone that gets his subpoena should take the fifth and tell him to pound sand.
Congress was not established as an investigative body.

I am absolutely convinced these people are being threatened with bodily harm to their families. I suspect some of the RINOs who vote with the Dems are too.

So what's had me occupied lately:
Updating the electronics suite on my boat. 2 Flatscreen touch displays (12 inch and 8 inch), network box, AIS transponder (automatic identification system), NMEA2000 backbone, XM weather module. I also installed a VHF radio with DSC (digital selective calling).
Next project is engines/generator service to prepare for spring. Also completed compound and wax of hull and topsides.
Working a couple of large projects with the day job as well.

I might not be around in the near future either, my husband just got a new job and we will be selling the house and moving. Again.

Off topic, but it reminded me of a greeting card I saw earlier today while looking for a birthday car.
A busty police woman had a guy in handcuffs and was reading him his rights:
Police Woman: "You have the right to remain silent. Any thing you say can and will be held against you".
Stupid Guy: "Boobs!"

Nice. I installed a VHF with DSC and a 4' Digital-brand antenna on my small 17 footer last year. Went fairly well. But then I couldn't get a test response from 5 miles out at Alligator reef in the Keys. Not sure why.

Or, most of us are still working stiffs and have been a little busy.

Spot fucking on. Especially when it doesn’t invoke the functioning of government.
And just to be clear for the Steingars of the world, leaving Americans to die in a foreign land involves the functioning of government.

Maybe you need a little refresher. It’s all ball bearings nowadays.

Does your VHF have 2 power options (low power/high power)? I have a Uniden and that's one of the features.

Not completely sure, but I think so. I'll take a look as we're ramping up for boating season. Here is the unit I got - http://www.icomamerica.com/en/products/marine/mountedvhf/m400bb/default.aspx
Since I have a quite small boat with very little space at the helm, this allowed me to put the "guts" of the unit under the helm. I was able to get a test response from Seatow's test frequency at my local sandbar which is 3 - 5 miles from the coast. But down in the keys at 5 miles I got nothin'.

I might not be around in the near future either, my husband just got a new job and we will be selling the house and moving. Again.
Congrats to your husband. Hope your selling and move go smoothly. So far our own home selling has had a couple glitches - like a major snow storm that knocked out power for us and thousands of others for over a week. Now we have to clean up downed trees. Lotta grunt labor ahead. Lost sales momentum. Though one family that has asked to see the place three times now may yet present an offer.
I had no idea till tonight that our listing agent had created a sales video of our property - I found it while searching our address. The photographer used a DJI Phantom to take the aerial shots. I watched him maneuver that thing pretty high (he said to get above the local trees which can grow pretty tall.) His eyes spent most of their time looking at the video screen of his controller. He did claim to have an FAA certificate for it.

Don't scare us like that. I thought you were dying!

Congrats to your husband. Hope it works out, and hope you have internet access where you are going so you can return to join us when things settle down.

Can you reveal where you are moving? If you're uncomfortable with exact location, then can you say what state?

Still in Texas thank God.

That's really cool! I also like when they do "walkthrough" videos of the house. I never understood why realtors can't take pictures from angles that show the relationship of the rooms, the layout. You need to take it looking down hallways and through doors, but they all take pictures of the corners of bedrooms or the bathroom FROM the door and you can't see how the house is laid out. Or if they'd just post a picture of the floor plan. The walkthrough videos let you see the layout. That's one of the most important things in a house.

Aw thank you!! Yes, fast internet access is non-negotiable. I need it for my work.
