Spin Zone / Linking accounts
« on: January 15, 2020, 12:16:42 PM »
Am I crazy?   I want to move money from Bank B into Bank A.  When I go online, to Bank A website, it says I can link to my Bank B account and then just transfer money easily without having to mail paper checks around or drive to a branch.

Sounds easy but I'm having trouble trusting my Bank B account numbers to Bank A.  On the other hand, if I go deposit a paper check, they see the account numbers anyway!  And it sure would be nice not to have to leave the house to transfer money.

I just feel really weird connecting accounts like that. Even worse, our financial advisor wants us to link all our accounts to their website so he can see our "total financial picture" to better advise us.  It's not a matter of not trusting the advisor, he's been with us for over 30 years, that's not the point.

In the past I never would have done this, but these days it seems the trend. It just feels really creepy to me. What do you guys think? Am I just getting too old to get with the program? Get off my lawn!

Spin Zone / change.org
« on: January 14, 2020, 11:11:47 AM »
It seems I usually disagree with change.org's petitions, but this is one I can get behind:

https://www.change.org/p/united-states-supreme-court-impeachment-of-virginia-governor-northam-for-infringing-on-2nd-amendment-rights?recruiter=false&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=facebook&utm_campaign=psf_combo_share_initial&utm_term=psf_combo_share_abi&recruited_by_id=251818f0-36dd-11ea-bb13-a399ecc31959&share_bandit_exp=initial-19849858-en-US&share_bandit_var=v1&utm_content=fht-19849858-en-us%3Av10

Quote
Governor Ralph Northam has presented a state wide gun ban that would disarm law abiding citizens, infringing on constitutional rights granted by the U.S Constitution 2nd Amendment as well as Virginia Constitution Article 1 section 13. This kind of proposition is unconstitutional and should not be allowed.

His plan for implementing and enforcing such a ban would be using local law enforcement and National Guard soldiers to gather guns. Doing so would also be taking privately owned weapons from the ones ordered to enforce the new law.

Law enforcement and the citizen soldiers have taken oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. Governor Northam's proposition to ban privately owned and registered weapons would violate such an oath.

Lastly, banning weapons only effects the law abiding citizen, criminals will always find a way to obtain a weapon to use to commit a crime. Disarming would only cause more innocent lives to be taken by the hands of a heartless criminal.

Spin Zone / Am I going to get banned?

I debated whether to make this post mentioning “the wall” and the subject of illegal aliens. But I sincerely just want to discuss drone technology as a border security measure.

https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/so-who-is-flying-these-drones.123487/#post-2851541

Here is the post in case you don’t want to go over there:

Quote
Following my thought on border control, one of our local politicians when we lived closer to the Mexican border talked about using “technology” instead of building a wall. But he was short on detail about exactly what that technology would be. One of the biggest problems with illegal entry is the long walk across desert areas where these people are attacked by coyotes (the human kind) and left to die, or in danger of just dying from dehydration before they reach a town or source of water. I can see where such a drone grid search could be a good alternative to a physical wall in certain areas, but you’d have to run them 24/7, I wonder how the expense would compare?

Disclaimer: I know “the wall” is a touchy political subject I DO NOT WANT TO GO THERE. I am only speculating on a possible reason for these drones and I’m thinking this is a very likely possibility.

Spin Zone / Former NSA chief talking to Durham
« on: December 21, 2019, 02:49:41 PM »
https://www.redstate.com/nick-arama/2019/12/21/its-heating-up-former-nsa-director-mike-rogers-reportedly-cooperating-in-durham-probe/

Yup, NSA is helping build a case against CIA, FBI and DOJ.

https://www.theepochtimes.com/nsa-director-rogers-disclosed-fisa-abuse-days-after-carter-page-fisa-was-issued_2692033.html

TLDR:  Rogers was trying to alert the FISA court to the abuses in the Carter Page case and as a result the deep state tried to get rid of him.

Quote
The FBI and the DOJ’s NSD were literally racing against Rogers’s investigation in order to obtain the FISA warrant on Page.

As all of this was transpiring, then-DNI James Clapper and then-Defense Secretary Ash Carter submitted a recommendation that Rogers be removed from his position as NSA chief. The move to fire Rogers, which failed, originated sometime in mid-to-late October 2016—exactly when Rogers was preparing to present his findings to the FISA court

Rogers discovered that the FBI had outside contractors accessing FISA data and he shut that down, sending Lisa Page and Peter Strzok into a tizzy.

Spin Zone / Compare Trump and Biden
« on: December 18, 2019, 03:36:39 PM »
I got this tidbit from a book review on Amazon of O'Reilly's recent book:

When Don Jr. worked for a landscaping company, in discussing the pay, Dad (Trump) said ''why would I pay you more than you're willing to work for?"

Wow, compare that to Joe Biden and his son.

Just wow.

I screenshotted this because it too is likely to be deleted.  I don't know why I went back over there. Yeah I do, I'm trying to avoid a lot of unpleasant real life stuff. Maybe I'll just go back to the unpleasant real life stuff.

Spin Zone / Trump is God!
« on: December 06, 2019, 01:49:19 PM »
Okay that’s an overstatement. And a deliberate nod to Steingar who has said repeatedly that we worship Trump no matter what he does.

I just heard him say he is going to roll back the horrible low flow standards!  I myself have written to him on this subject, I begged him to get rid of low flow. And he’s doing it! Once more I am astounded and amazed at this man, his seeming personal responsiveness to me!  Naturally I know it’s not me, he himself probably never sees my little messages but I suspect thousands of people write to him with the same complaints.

He goes on and on, thing after thing after thing that the people want! Unless you’re a whacko environmentalist.

I will state that I know water supply is a huge problem in desert areas, and Trump acknowledged that water saving standards would need to be in place in those areas. But it has been insanity to restrict water everywhere else, where we have more water than we know what to do with.

Also I do not follow blindly everything Trump does. I am very upset with his stance on civil asset forfeiture (unless he has reversed his position in recent months). There are other things I disagree with him about too.

But he is bringing back my beloved incandescent light bulb!  Will he bring back my high gallon potty? Will he make it so when I buy a house I don’t have to go around replacing all the faucets and shower heads with ones I’ve removed the flow restrictor?  I love this President.

Spin Zone / Rush Limbaugh right now
« on: December 04, 2019, 11:25:32 AM »
He's talking about some guy and I didn't catch the name. A guy that says the ruling class is entrenched and after Trump it will still be almost impossible to return to the country the Founders envisioned. He says the country cannot reunite ever again. The deep state doesn't WANT to, they will forever see us (Trump voters, or non-progressives) as "deplorables", hayseeds, etc.

Who is the guy he's quoting?  I can't find it on his website either.

Spin Zone / Sunning your nether regions
« on: December 01, 2019, 09:44:31 AM »
Letting yourself air out and dry after a shower in the privacy of your bedroom might be a good idea, to prevent jock itch or vaginal yeast infection, but I think this is taking things a bit too far.

Spin Zone / Feral hog attack
« on: November 30, 2019, 06:09:41 AM »
All the articles about this incident emphasize these attacks are rare. They are NOT rare. Our neighbor was attacked by one of these things, messed his foot up bad, he needed surgery.

At least this article prints that you should carry a gun. The MSM articles wouldn’t dream of suggesting you do the one best thing to defend yourself.

Hunting these things is a thing around here. Yum. At least they’re good for something.

Spin Zone / It WAS quid-pro-quo!
« on: November 20, 2019, 04:15:54 PM »
The radio, and Fox news no less, I just listened to the report; that was the opening line of the 5:00 news!!!  I just finished hearing the guy's testimony myself and that is NOT WHAT HE SAID.  He said that it was his own presumption that it was QPQ and that nobody else told him that but that "everybody knew it" meaning everybody presumed it, but when he actually talked to Trump and asked Trump what he wanted with Ukraine Trump said, "Nothing, no quid-pro-quo."  And when asked if he had any evidence that it was QPQ his answer is no.

Sounds to me like the headline should be "It was NOT quid-pro-quo!"
