She certainly has some talent. And some amazing balance. Yeah, but today's kids have thumbs of steel. I'd bet half of Gen Z probably doesn't even know how to ride a two wheeler without training wheels.

To keep vampires away?

So, you're a doctor now??? ...."Dementia is defined as fatal brain failure which leads to death. Many people think of dementia as a memory disorder associated with old age. That is true, specifically in the early stages, but it goes much further than that. As the disease progresses it leads to complete brain failure, resulting in death. It is not simply a mental ailment as many people often perceive it as." Did you also miss this part: Does that spell "healthy" to you?

See that... 10 round mags save lives!!! Oh, wait.... I know, those deaths are from Covid, right?... If they only had a vaccine.... oh, and lock downs work to keep us save... Oh, wait again... ....."There were 287 homicides in the Garden State as of Nov. 30, according to statistics provided by the New Jersey State Police. That’s up from 234 over the same time period in 2019. Fatal shootings in New Jersey actually jumped from six in February to 17 in March, the month Gov. Phil Murphy imposed a strict stay-at-home order. There were 16 killings in April, up from eight in April 2019, and 16 in May. Paterson has recorded 27 homicides in 2020, its highest number in more than three decades, Sayegh said. In Trenton, there were 40 killings as of Dec. 30, surpassing the previous record of 37 in 2013. Homicides in the city had been on the decline, with 16 in 2019 and 15 in 2018. https://www.nj.com/crime/2020/12/homicides-in-nj-soared-22-in-2020-what-caused-the-spike.html

I see way more upsides than downsides. Plus, if you get a rogue bot, a few well placed rounds will stop it in it's tracks. There's so many vulnerable spots to hit.

Hey, at least it wasn't about crock pot ribs!!!

Another Covid death.... Oh, wait.... ...."Dawn Wells, the 81-year-old star of the classic TV sitcom Gilligan’s Island, is reportedly suffering from dementia. Fans know that Wells has been residing in an assisted living facility for the past two years. In 2018, supporters rallied behind Wells to help raise funds for her support after the former TV star found herself in substantial debt after several medical emergencies. https://www.inquisitr.com/6134895/dawn-wells-dementia/

You might be over reacting and a bit premature with the worry.. We can't even get a self driving car to operate correctly. Thinking that these robots will take over the world is Orsen Welles type stuff. First scaling. These bots aren't cheap to build. Spot, the dog, is selling for $75K. How many you want? What do you think that full grown bot costs to make? It's gonna take some serious dollars to fund and build that bot army that going to take over the world. Guess what, we'll both be dead by then... I don't think it will be a factor.

Or be used to cut your grass, clean your pool and shovel your snow. Plus, it will keep the neighbor's kids off your lawn! Someone still needs to build and program the robots. Think job security.

I need to get one of these things! Specially the dog. Just think, no more poop to scoop.

Ha... I thought I was the only one to hear that bitching... When I tell her what it's worth NOW, her jaw drops... I don't think the new 7 million make such a dent in the supply. It's the other 100 million stocking up too, as well as dealers grabbing what ever they can find.

More information on this lab. Seems they were selling bogus Covid tests to the general public. How many people's lives were screwed up because of a false positive? ....."Litigants are lining up against a Bergen County-based diagnostic lab company for allegedly selling fraudulent COVID-19 tests at one of its South Jersey locations, a scheme officials say ended only after an FBI raid of the facility in early December. At least four people who fell for the alleged fraud have joined a class-action lawsuit against Infinity Diagnostics Labs, accusing the Teterboro company of advertising $75 "rapid" COVID tests that were actually antibody tests with no capacity to detect the virus. The kits were distributed out of an Infinity location in Ventnor City, according to the suit, filed Dec. 15 in state Superior Court in Atlantic County. The storefront has since shuttered, but not before the alleged scam hoodwinked potentially thousands of people, according to the complaint. “In a nutshell, Infinity put corporate profit ahead of people’s health and well-being by advertising, selling and administering a fake active COVID test which they knew would not diagnose persons who were actually infected with this dreadful disease,” the suit states. Infinity allegedly started selling and administering finger-stick antibody tests between March and December, advertising the materials for active COVID infections and “rapid 10-minute testing," the complaint says. https://www.app.com/story/news/2020/12/28/lawsuit-filed-against-nj-lab-accused-selling-bogus-covid-19-tests/4041382001/

I also have 3 in the process. Everything has gone through, just waiting for the PD to get off their butts and issue them. Also seeing really light inventory, so it might be tough to find what I want. I let one or two permits expire last year, thinking I could just reapply, now I kicking myself that I didn't pull the trigger and use them. If we only had a crystal ball to see the future..

The House has voted 275-134 to increase COVID-19 relief checks to $2,000 under the CASH Act, achieving the 2/3 majority needed to pass. 44 Republicans voted for it along with nearly all of the Democrats. The bill will now go to the Senate where it will likely suffer a swift death.

In other news, the stock market hit new highs today, It really likes freshly printed (fake) Fed money!!

Maybe him signing this porkulus bill is some sort of Qanon plan and some 18D Chess?

There's a lot of partying going on in foreign countries right now. They hit the Mega Millions!! And the American people got cornholed... That's flying around all over the Internet, but no one has read what it means. It helps Congress when a President tries to change a spending Bill.

Here you go, Trump rolled over, and signed the complete pork filled bill!! What a let down and ball-less wonder... Remember this in 2018? President Trump on Tuesday blasted the bipartisan omnibus spending bill passed by Congress that wrapped up COVID relief in it, calling for larger stimulus checks and arguing no one in Congress had read the bill. The face-off is reminiscent of 2018, when Trump threatened to veto an omnibus bill "nobody read." He ultimately ended up not vetoing but promised at the time never to sign such legislation again. "But I say to Congress: I will never sign another bill like this again. I’m not going to do it again. Nobody read it. It’s only hours old. Some people don’t even know what is in -- $1.3 trillion -- it’s the second-largest ever." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/flashback-trump-2018-spending-bill-nobody-read-never-sign-another-bill-like-this Now, today, repeat performance from 2018: ....."President Trump on Sunday signed a $900 billion pandemic relief package which will include $600 direct checks checks, abandoning his immediate demand that Congress go back to the drawing board and provide $2,000 checks, and instead encouraged them to vote on a separate bill to "increase payments to individuals from $600 to $2,000." "I am signing this bill to restore unemployment benefits, stop evictions, provide rental assistance, add money for PPP, return our airline workers back to work, add substantially more money for vaccine distribution, and much more," Trump said in a Sunday night statement. The pandemic relief package is coupled with $1.4 trillion in funds to run the government through September and includes other end-of-session priorities such as increases in food stamp benefits and funding for the transit system. Plus, tons of pork, which we noted last week. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-signs-covid-19-relief-bill-600-checks-asks-congress-approve-increase-later

Most people buy extra mags above what their pistols come with. He should just tell the FFL to keep the 15 rounders and give him a few bucks for them, and just go buy 10 rounders somewhere online.

Yep, they use your last filed taxes (which will be 2019 for most people) and look at your AGI. For the last stimulus check, they looked at either 2018 or 2019, depending on if you filed your 2019 yet. We got nothing out of the last stimulus round because of the 2018 tax return. I finally got wifey to do her final punch out and retire in the end of 2019, so this year has been the first full year of retirement for us with reduced income. But they'll look at 2019 to make their determination again, and we'll get nothing.. There's your wonderful government in action, the people paying the bulk of the taxes are the ones NOT getting some sort of a rebate/stimulus, while the people who pay zilch in taxes, get the maximum benefit. Isn't Socialism wonderful?

Guess what that is? Both sides are swinging it over the table, saying my di*k is bigger than yours. Hoyer knew he wouldn't get unanimous consent, his game was just to make the Repubs look like the aholes, cause he knew what the Headline would be. The Repubs wanted to carve out some "pork", but the Dems wanted no part of that. Bet you won't here that part on CNN.

Gotta start somewhere. Can they put nukes on those rafts?

Yeah, but they have Nazis in the tower.

No second one? There are already two, the Covid Bill and the Spending Bill, both were passed in Congress and joined together. They can't be modified. Pelosi said they would take a vote Christmas Eve for a Bill to raise the $600 to $1200, so this would be a new, or third Bill. ...."House Democrats will bring forward a bill to provide direct checks of $2,000 to individuals on Thursday, after President Trump called on Congress to amend a newly passed coronavirus relief bill to increase direct payments to $2,000, with $4,000 for a couple. Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the House will try to pass the bill by unanimous consent — meaning that only one Republican member opposing the proposal needs to be present in order to block the bill. https://www.wtrf.com/news/health/coronavirus/house-democrats-to-bring-forth-a-bill-christmas-eve-to-provide-covid-19-relief-checks-of-2000-to-individuals/
