Mark your calendars for this Saturday!! And head to Toms River!! If you support Law enforcement and are looking for a way to honor American Veterans on the last official weekend of summer, you may want to make your way to Toms River this Saturday. The largest boat parade in history is expected to take off from the Toms River Bridge at 9:30 am following a prayer, and the National Anthem. A fleet of nearly two thousand boats draped with American flags and Thin Blue Line flags are expected to span up to 10 miles of New Jersey’s water ways. And do not forget about the Trump flags. miles, and miles of Trump flags. Do not have a boat? The parade will pass by, (or under) three major bridges. (Mantoloking, Seaside Heights, and Manahawkin). Each bridge, during the last parade, had an estimate of 500-600 people on them. More are expected this time around. So, grab a flag or sign and join the movement. The parade will end in Beach Haven where a crowd north of 1000 are expected to celebrate and most likely enjoy a meal indoors, as New Jerseys’ Governor Murphy’s’ ban on indoor dining, which is set to be lifted this Friday. https://gibson68w.wordpress.com/2020/09/03/massive-toms-river-pro-law-enforcement-pro-veteran-boat-parade-set-to-break-world-record/

What's this muscle fix stuff you youngsters are talking about? I know nothing about that, but age is only a number on the calendar.

Actually, that's where the bulk of the new jobs last month were created: ....."Big business dominated job creation, as firms with more than 500 employees added 298,000 workers. Medium-sized businesses were next with 79,000 while companies with fewer than 50 workers grew by 52,000. Job creation skewed heavily to services, which added 389,000 compared with the 40,000 for goods producers. (The total doesn’t add up to 428,000 due to rounding.) After lagging through the early part of the pandemic recovery, leisure and hospitality led with 129,000 new jobs while education and health services contributed 100,000 and professional and business services grew by 66,000. Construction also added 28,000 and manufacturing was up 9,000."

Scroll back in the thread, and you'll see. Some think a wonderful recovery is ongoing...

Well, looks like the so called "V" shaped recovery is turning into a "W" shaped recovery. State Unemployment numbers have reversed direction and are holding around the 1 million weekly number. Add in the Fed numbers, and they're going back up. Here's the longer timeline showing where State UE claims were running before the China virus: Also, total continuing claims has been holding around the 30 million level, not many jobs have come back, and probably won't be coming back. And, per the ADP jobs report yesterday, new job totals missed by a lot... ...."Private payroll growth came in well below expectations for August, according to a report Wednesday from ADP, whose job tallies have differed widely from the government’s during the coronavirus pandemic. Companies added 428,000 jobs during the month, well below the 1.17 million estimate from economists surveyed by Dow Jones though a leap above the lackluster 212,000 that ADP measured for July. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/09/02/private-payrolls-grow-by-428000-but-miss-expectations-adp-report-says.html So, the economy can't create enough jobs in a MONTH to equal half that are lost in ONE WEEK.

Looking for a shorter length used travel trailer or toy hauler, something in the 16 foot to 22 foot ranges. I see a bunch of longer ones on Craigslist, etc., but not many short ones. Anyone know of one available?

Not to worry, those 2 new conservative judges on the SCOTUS will save us.... (so I'm told....) https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/15/supreme-court-will-not-hear-gun-cases-blow-to-2nd-amendment-backers.html Oh, wait....

Not crockpot, boiled ribs?

Look at that.. Just what I said above.. unfortunately, very few even care about the data siphoned off their phones. If I have a concern, it's more about the actual bank itself, versus an outside hacker. Insiders can cause a hell of a lot more troubles.

https://tinder.com/ Even when they get hacked? https://www.zdnet.com/article/whoops-has-lifelock-been-unlocked/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/credit-rating-firm-equifax-reveals-breach-as-many-as-143-million-affected/ ...."The Atlanta, Georgia-headquartered company said that hackers had between mid-May through July exploited a vulnerability on its website to access certain files. The data includes names, social security numbers, birth dates, home addresses, and in some cases, driving license information. It's thought to be the largest data breach reported so far this year."

I'm surprised it took 11 posts to get to this point. It's usually 3 or 4.

And we'll try not to hold that against you... LOL

I use them. I also have Lifelock. For the few bucks, hoping that one of them picks up a problem, is worth it. Although, I don't even like Lifelock having access with certain personal information. They've been hacked in the past. I've seen alerts from one, but not from the other, so who knows what they're looking at?

The odds are, if you do any mobile banking on your phone, and stay logged into the site, that information has already been siphoned off your phone by all those "FREE" apps you've downloaded..

My last build was a Anderson lower with a PSA upper. No issues at all.

As long as we don't get this, we should be OK:

Hmmm, so what exactly has Alexa recorded in your house?

So, the humidity went UP with the rod plugged in, and dropped when you unplugged it? Hmmm...

It depends on if it's short term (under one year) or long term (more than one year) capital gains. They are taxed differently. This is how you should be buying/selling your PMs.

Now, Alexa and Google Home, will help incriminate you in a crime. Isn't technology so helpful? ......"Amazon said it had received more than 3,000 requests for smart speaker user data from police earlier this year, according to a new article from Wired. Even more stunning, Amazon complied with the police's requests on more than 2,000 occasions, forking over recordings and data that give law enforcement an ear into someone's household. This number marks a 72% increase in these types of requests from the same period in 2016 - the first time Amazon disclosed the data. The number of requests are up 24% year over year. Google's Nest unit has also seen a similar spike in police demands for data from its smart speakers. The company's annual transparency report shows consistently rising numbers for police requests for data. Douglas Orr, head of the criminal justice department at the University of North Georgia, told Wired that police look for this smart home data "as routinely as data from smartphones". Police can continue to collect data if one electronic device (like a phone) leads them to another (like a smart home speaker) simply by amending search warrants, he said. This connecting of data from multiple devices is now becoming "common practice", Whitfield said. “I just don't see this going away. I think this is going to be more and more prolific as time goes on,” he concluded.

The guys who were good Boy Scouts, don't feel it.

Not according to Murphy. Assembly of people, close together, for political purposes is acceptable. The patrons will just have to talk about some politics while they're there. I'm sure they can find a topic, like this guy below.

Just turn this up:

I was searching to see what his exact ammo tax is that he's proposing. Only thing I found is what he said back in March: ....."Murphy is asking lawmakers to raise the cost of a $2 gun application to $50, and a firearm ID card from $5 to $100, according to the state’s treasury department. The Democratic governor also proposed a 2.5% tax on firearms and a 10% tax on ammunition." He's also taking a shot at other leisure activities, like boats. If you're planning on buying a boat, plan ahead: ...."Undo the exemption and cap on sales and use tax for new and used boats: Currently, boat sales are provided a 50 percent sales tax exemption and the total tax is capped at $20,000 per sale. The restoration of the full sales tax and elimination of the cap would yield an estimated $7.0 million over eight months of FY 2021."
