But it expose as lie!

New report show that whistle blower in contact with House Intel Committee BEFORE he file complaint and receive advice from committee about how to do. So committee in collusion with whistle blower to get advice how to make complaint just way Democrats want. Whistleblower work with Democrats to make false report and then Democrat lie about it!

...I've found that almost all of the regular bloggers here are decent and bright folks, from whom I continue to learn things. Most grateful, even when the politics don't quite always align. But sometimes I worry that, who would have thunk it, men an women might be different in their appreciation of humour. For instance, I still chuckle at Hoober's great original Testicles tales. But how about the girls? Two things here. I hope the sensibilities of the ladies aren't doused by such very male humour, if it really is such. And ladies, many of you cause a hoot by what you blog and write. Just seems you all could do more, let's say, humour with a female touch, if such really exists. Oh to be a fly on the wall with the CS ladies over strong drink. Humour differences between the sexes?

Contrary to popular misconception, karma has nothing to do with punishment and reward. It exists as part of our lives only to teach us responsibility for our doings.

Karma moves in two directions. If we act virtuously, the seed we plant will result in happiness. If we act non-virtuously, suffering results. As we have planted, so do we harvest; such is the way of karma. We pay for what we do, and still more, for what we have allowed ourselves to become. For the innocent, the past may hold a reward. But for the treacherous, it's only a matter of time before the past delivers what we truly deserve.

If you sow goodwill, you will harvest well. When positive things are made, that returns well. There will always be karma to be taken care of. How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours. We are not punished for our sins, but by them.

Karma comes after everyone eventually. You can't get away with screwing people over your whole life; what goes around comes around. That's how it works. If you sow winds you shall reap storms. Sooner or later you will get you what you deserve.

Don't waste time on revenge. The people who hurt you will eventually face their own karma. Karma bides its time. Karma is unforgiving and always gets payback. You dare not do harm to someone because someone has done harm to you. You will pay just like they will.

Whatever you give to life, it gives you back. Do not hate anybody. The hatred which comes out from you will someday come back to you. Love others. And love will come back to you.

Karma has a surprising way of taking care of situations. All you have to do is to sit back and wait.

I was up early this morning, charged the helicopter batteries with expectations of a few flights before heading to Miami to continue renovation. Winds, were 15mph so I decided to stay at the condo and head to Miami later in the day.

I knew my stylist was working until 6 and it was nearly 5 when I called to see if she was available. The girl who answered told me 3 were in front and there would be a long wait... She seemed to be unable to grasp that 3 clients waiting and 1 hour before closing meant there wasn't time for me to get a haircut. Duh. It took several tries to get her to realize this.

Al, the brother of my neighbor is jobless and nearly homeless, so I asked if he wanted to cut my lawn... he was over in 2 minutes ready to work. I trimmed the bushes and did the edging. Break time I went to Burger King with a buy one get one free coupon. Al got an unexpected dinner. It would have been sooner, but it took 20 minutes to get through BK.
I equate this to a lack of management. I was a heartbeat away from suggesting they build a fast-food restaurant at that location.

A few minutes before sundown and I did a practice flight in front of the house to drain the battery. Lithium polymer hobby batteries deteriorate if they remain fully charged for long periods of time.

Already 8pm, I was packed and ready to leave when my wife texted asking if I was okay. I phoned back... Yes, all good and I'm heading back. I stopped for gas and the tanker was blocking some of the pumps. I did a few maneuvers and got within 15 feet of the tanker. The driver had 3 hoses connected and pumping away. What surprised me was the amount of fumes off of this rig. I recall someone saying tanker pumps have coaxial fittings with gaskets. As flammable gasoline gets pumped in, pressure returns to the tank... For safety and environmental concerns, it's a sealed system and fumes don't escape. I guess that's only in theory!

Gassed up and heading to the highway, I see the sign on the Carvel Ice Cream store lit up OPEN so it was time for some. I wanted a Chocolate Waffle Cone on a medium soft serve. The girl told me Chocolate Waffle Cones only come in large. My response was I understand, but don't want a large ice cream. How much extra to get the Chocolate Waffle Cone and only put in the amount for a medium.
She looked puzzled and repeated the Chocolate Waffle Cone only comes in large.
I took the medium Waffle Cone... without chocolate.

...sage job advice for youth. Seek out jobs that put emphasis on ability to work in different and unpredictable situations, that maximise human interactive interpersonal qualities, such as humor, social/emotional intelligence and multisituational creativity. Avoid repetitive sorts of work without these features. Become a Cyberhacker.

I went for a few months without flying drones. The model I purchased a few years ago, uses GPS guidance with the ability to shoot high quality 4K video. My intent was to study and pass the FAA Part 107 test and be certified to fly drones commercially... as in making money legally doing aerial photography. While it's on my list, other things keep getting in the way!

Three weeks ago, I connected with friends who fly for sport in a huge public park with a section off to one side for us to enjoy model aircraft. I did 10 minutes of flying but for some unknown reason, the video I recorded had a green tint. I suspect there could be some corrosion on the connector to the camera that needs attention.

Checking YouTube to see if anyone else had the same trouble, I came across a video with a drone that uses a ducted fan design instead of the conventional propellers.
While ducted fan technology isn't new to airplanes or drones, the inventor believes his design and shape of the propulsion tubes is unique. Therefore, he has applied for a patent.

His idea came about for safety as drones can be dangerous if they strike someone. The development of large scale quadcopters (drones) used to carry people also shares the same drawback. Some of the prototype designs I've seen all have blades in locations that could be strike someone nearing the airship.

If I had any business savvy I would have opened a rehab clinic for Rock & Roll musicians who cannot keep their careers inline. My facility would be busy year round!

James Hetfield, singer & guitarist for Metallica again has to be admitted to rehab for his uncontrolled drug and alcohol addiction. That means his band has to scrap the rest of their 2019 tour.

His new worth is estimated at $300 million so I doubt it will affect him financially... and the same goes for the other members of the band, including Robert Trujillo who joined the band in 2003 and only worth $15 million. The real money goes to management and the concert promoters. Others like road crew and catering that support the band will be most affected because they are at the bottom of the food chain. Thanks James, you f'up!

Let not forget about the fans... people who have waited years for the chance to see the band perform live... willing to plunk down hundreds of dollars. Thanks James, you f'up!

The band Tweeted “As most of you probably know, our brother James has been struggling with addiction on and off for many years. He has now, unfortunately, had to re-enter a treatment program to work on his recovery again,”

Oh?

One reader had the right response...
"Dave Mustaine was kicked out of the band for the reason that his alcoholism was effecting the band...fast forward 30 years. No member of Metallica's alcoholism has effected the band more than James"

Hmmm... maybe Dave isn't gigging right now.

YouTube has endless selections of Japanese Popular music (J-POP for short) and most are headed up by all girl bands. I came across one group BAND-MAID, five young women wearing sexy maid costumes.
At first, I thought their instruments were props... typical of some American bands that had real musicians behind the scenes while they pranced around the stage... not to say that there aren't any like that in Japan. BAND-MAID can hold their own with real talent.

I've listened to a few of their songs and amazed how good they perform!

Typical of many Japanese bands, their music is sung in Japanese and every once in a while there is a phrase in English.

"I've gotta be on my way"

Today in Market Watch;





This is way overdue. Congress should have done the right thing (impeachment inquiry) long ago.
