Day-After-Halloween ONT

Welcome to the post-Halloween ONT. It's good that some things never change. There's an immigrant who has lived in our old neighborhood for over a decade. He's a friendly guy, all the kids call him Mr. Mohammad, and he always has a small magic trick on him to amuse them. Every year on Halloween, he gives out...tennis balls. Yeah, I don't get it either. No cultural appropriation in this household, Little dressed as a crusader. And he got his tennis ball from Mr. Mohammad. He was saying “DEUS VULT!” instead of trick-or-treat half the night. Personally I would have gone with IN HOC SIGNO VINCES!

Fast Food

Here's a collection of links related to fast food:

Jimmy John's driver delivers ailing Nebraska veteran to emergency room

Teen drives seven hours round trip to deliver pizza to a dying man

Good for both of these guys. From the first story:

“There is always time for people, especially people in need,” he said. “I had the resources, I had drivers, we weren’t super busy with deliveries, either. Zach was glad to help someone out.”

Amen brother. That's the America I know and love.

Open wide America, This defunct burger chain invented much of what you love about fast food. They'll always treat you right.

In Russia, Ship Sinks You!

Huge Floating Dry Dock Holding Russia's Only Aircraft Carrier Has Accidentally Sunk

It's the Amiral Kuznetsov. It's a hunk of junk, I wrote about him a couple of years ago when he deployed to the Med (Warning!! Don't comment on old threads! You will be auto-banned!). I always liked the tone of that one, particularly the line about how the ship “served with distinction in a variety of Russian dry docks “.

Welcome To The Great Red North

PM Trudeau Astonishingly Seizes 500,000 Canadians Banking Data “Without their Consent
The smarmy cocksucker wants to have the government know about every check, every charge, every withdrawl and every deposit ever Canadian makes. Hey Canuck Morons, can't y'all get rid of this totalitarian fuck?

Who did it? Carlos Rodriguez? I dunno, we already played the “white-Hispanic” card and people laughed, we better shitcan the story (and I'm not even kidding. I originally had the story from the local Georgia paper, but they took it down).

How about:

Furious Detroit judge throws out case against black urban farmer after three white women falsely accused him of pedophilia and gun violence when he turned vacant playground into a garden

Now I don't know this, I don't know it at all, but how much you wanna bet that those three women are hardcore libs? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Whoosh! Off to the Daily Mail with you!

Science!

Interesting bit about the Kepler Space Telescope

BTW, that account is worth a follow if you do the Twatter thang. Chock full of interesting, usually science-based, tidbits. I started following just to get stuff for the ONT, but now I really enjoy it for its own sake.

Good News!
