Welcome to another edition of Hunky Hump Day.
Seems appropriate to have a song from “Planes, Trains, and Automobiles” today.
Now for the hunks.

Some place warm.
Delta is ready when you are.
Last, but not least.
And that will do for today.
Thanks to Pirate’s Cove for the linky love every week, and y’all have a good day.

That movie sums up this election and serves as a metaphor for 2020 in general without the laughter provided from John Candy’s role

I’ve never thought about killing a customer. Mostly I wish miserable people would just stay home.
I love that movie.
Perhaps one of my all time faves.
Fucking youtube took down the Tom Woods video. Fucking fuckers.
Welcome to your brave new world people.
YOU’RE GOING TO KILL SOMEONE!

Thaaank youuu.
It’s a travesty that I don’t own a copy of that movie
I’m making chili for thanksgiving, just bought the goods. Even at 0830 there was a manic energy in the grocery store
Aaaannnnd it’s snowing
Who is Tom Woods?
And big tech censorship is frightening. They really are historically ignorant. This always ends poorly.
When people are morally scolded, shunned, and generally spat upon eventually they get tired of it. At some point a total weirdo is going to understand this and harness the anger.
Perhaps a failed art student.
Don’t forget all the sexual deviancy and overall degeneracy.

This is the radio version, but when gave this speech Ron Paul symposium, he had graphs which were very valuable.
The other version is gone.
If you go here, you can see that facebook deleted Tom Wood’s lecture from all the other speeches given.
HERE it is. But you will get a twitter warning that they have identified the link as problematic or something.

It’s dedr n a hiv + hump day humper in here.
Friend of the wife’s just called to tell her that another friend of theirs had died. Our age, AF veteran. No cause given.
That makes two of her friends, just this year. I don’t have any friends, but I’m sure some of the friends I used to have are gone too.

I may be disowned if my father starts in on this shit at all.
Be the bigger man Leon.
Just tell him you don’t agree and then pull the dick off of your anger management puppet.
I think I know what you mean when you say you have no friends, Leon. I am no longer in contact with any of my crews from back in the day.
However, I count you as a pretend internet friend and those are more better because they don’t crash on your couch or ask for help moving.
My friends are all either from work or crossfit. Period. And you guys of course.
I’m 52 (for another few days) and people my age dying of things is becoming more common. Two classmates died in the last 30 days. One of cancer, I don’t know the other.
One of my friends died of Cancer in his 30s, right after he had a baby. That was pretty rough. We weren’t close, but I still think about what a nice guy he was, and I’m sad he didn’t get to see his girl grow up.
(we were friends in high school and went to college together – worked at the same place as me and Pay.)
How’s the job hunt going you FPOS?
We are a family here and we are friends. I love you all man
also, good morning, hosefuckers!

I’m kind of doing traditional, just because everyone likes the sides so much. No turkey, you have too care too much to avoid drying it out so spiral sliced ham, green bean casserole, cauliflower mac and cheese with bacon and crushed pork rinds on top, garlic mashed potatoes, Hawaiian rolls, and dressing with hot Jimmy deal sausage and deliciously smelling onions/celery/sage.
Pumpkin pie with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream or Milano crushed peppermint cookies with ice cream.
Keto dessert for me. My daughter is making it. Probably chocolate, chocolate chip cookies.
My daughter, my husband and I (her husband is working) are doing our own Turkey Trot tomorrow morning.
BEST COMMENT EVER!!!
HAHAHAHAHA Pjm.
Strike one!!!
HA! Just opened the fridge and found the mini cheesecake sampler I bought because my son-in-law likes it.
When I do abundance, I do abundance.
Oh, and there will be champagne and beers and or margaritas.
MY COMMENTS ARE ONLY GETTING BETTER!!
Menu for tomorrow is turkey, cranberry sauce, cornbread dressing, green bean casserole, plain sweet potatoes, deviled eggs, pumpkin pie, and pecan pie. Pecan pie has been baked. Going to make a cream sauce for the green beans since we have cream of mushroom haters. Mini-me’s boyfriend is making knishes.
Glad you mentioned drinks, Mare, I need to put a bottle of wine in the fridge.
Love me some deviled eggs
Magic mushroom iconography is rarely accidental.
A long time ago I hosted a Christmas party at my house and all the nurses wanted to know what to bring. I told them there was a deviled egg contest and a few of them actually believed me.

Amazon servers are down. I can’t ship stuff when that happens.
I wonder how much of AWS is affected.
A couple of years under Harris and an AWS outage will cripple US intel.
Just throwing that out there for interested parties.

The hit was supposed to happen on Black Friday
MARE!! MARE! MARE!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t know if you liked pumpkin pie!!
but I made it with this

I didn’t tell the kids and they couldn’t tell the difference….and my kids border on autistic (that’s not a joke though sorta, they might be kinda spectrumy) with regards to food items
I used regular crust though because there would have been no fooling them, but I’m not kidding, it’s delicious!
I wonder how much of AWS is affected.
glad I’m not at work then…everytime that gets affected, everything goes down at work
So, Mom bought me a quality fresh farm turkey that I am going to cook on Friday. I’ve never cooked a really good turkey before, only grocery store stuff.
I think I’m going to cure and smoke the wings and drumsticks like ham for stewing with lentils or split pea soup with over the winter. Did this years ago with a storebought turkey and it worked out great. I’m assuming that they will still be as stringy as the drumsticks are on a store bird, and not worth trying to roast and eat straight on.
The thighs and breasts I’ll sous vide and roast or grill.
Anyone watching the PA hearing?
I’ve had a few free range turkeys from local turkey farms that have been really good. Night and day from your average grocery store turkey.
You can buy organic free range turkeys at some stores and because they cost so much in comparison to the loss leader frozen bowling ball birds they’re often on sale the day after Thanksgiving
I’m 47…there are people freaked out about me celebrating Thanksgiving with a mixed household. My husband and I will be the oldest people in attendance.
as of today according to the CDC
17034 people between the ages of 35-54 have died of Covid
81,478,600 is the amount of people in the U.S. ages 35-54
0.0209061029
That’s the actual percent we have to worry. I’m not canceling my life over this.

I was and it’s amazing.

This will be our first year too. We’re brining it tonight
It’s not about you, Peej, it’s about you and all your guests emerging, all infected-zombie like, to disperse across the land and kill everybody else. With an airborne virus. That masks do nothing for. Except satisfy our addiction to Safety Theater™.
If you threw that party in CT and got busted, you would face a $500 fine, each guest would get a $250 fine, and anyone not wearing a mask would get another $100 added on.
Today Gov announced a $10,000 fine to any business that doesn’t follow his stupid rules.
I like pumpkin pie but my family loves it. I have a ton of Lakanto golden PJM (Costco now sells it) and I’m going to make that for Christmas!!

Good news, Pjm, only 6% of those numbers were actually COVID alone. And THAT’s from the CDC too. So if no serious co-morbidities those numbers drop like your mom’s pants during fleet week.
So…..we’re not supposed to have Thanksgiving dinner with friends and family, but it’s A-OK to stand shoulder to shoulder with perfect strangers just a few hours later at a Black Friday sale at Wally World?
‘Cuz I haven’t heard ONE WORD from these tyrants telling people that they can’t do THAT!
It’s not theater, it’s like the dude up there in the Mises Institute video said. It’s a secular cult religion. Masks are a sign of membership and submission, just like “Hate Has No Home Here”, “Black Lives Matter”, and “We Believe Science is Real” signs.

That is insane and I cannot believe a lawyer hasn’t filed suit against it.
That’s about as Constitutional as Hotspur’s diaper.
I’m not kidding when I say this Saturday I’m going to go to a past 10pm curfew protest. I will not be told I cannot go out past 10…I mean, I don’t want to go out past 10, but now that I’m not allowed? I’m going
I’m proud of you, Pjm. This is all crazy. We’re not locked down and I don’t know of any Florida proclamation of not getting together. Wouldn’t care anyway.
Yeah, even though I head for bed about 8:45 because I’m old as crap (I get up at 5) I’d shoot myself with some b vitamins, a pot of coffee and a cold shower to protest that garbage.
My 106 year old Tia Amanda has the COVID. She’s a tough old bird. Prayers requested.

I don’t know if you saw this part too
Merv is the type of person that thinks he’s being a rebel when he drives 67 mph….but he has been actively going with me to restaurants that aren’t complying and allowing people to eat indoors. I have made SUCH a rule breaker out of him
if anything exciting is happening at this protest on Saturday, I’ll liveblog it here
Can’t wait for the updates on site!
I think I’d like Merv a lot.
I’m a rule follower too. But this whole thing has got me worked up. Same as the election. I wish I could have gone to the #StopTheSteal march in DC.
* I’m a rule follower but in this part of Florida if you’re going the speed limit you’re a danger. Really. I guess that is for most places.

Can’t watch, but saw a clip or two. The hearings are opening some eyes, and scaring some lefties.

oh gosh oso, your family is getting hit! I’m so sorry
Mare, it’s funny because he’s this ginormous tattooed Marine (not active now) with a vape pen and people probably think he’s this total rebel and he’s actually just a teddy bear of a man who loves my kids better than their father does
I had to watch on Rightside News on YouTube. Usual Suspects are already dissing what we watched. I’m a Rayciss Messican, y’all. JEF is disappointed.
I was watching it oso and it was kinda mind blowing. It was …..THAT good

Turkey is brining. brinning? brine-ing? whatever. I’ve cut up everything I think I can safely pre-cut. Blanched my beans. Made my mush soup for the bean stuff. Cooked the eggplants for a whoredorve. (that’s what mare calls an appetizer).
Now I wait.
Should I make deviled eggs? So delish.

Nah. They had legit proof of fraud. Jenna lowered the boom on the Rep that was trying to cover for the SOS. Explained the Constitutional duty of the legislature.

CoWs started dating a few months ago. Ended up having to quarantine together. Broke up 4 times. Threatened to kill each other. Came back to work today. They are talking marriage. I’m chatting old lady Catholic, with both of them. They both want what Dan and I have. Trying to keep shit real. Steering them towards Catholicism. They are both baptized cultural Catholics.

What could go wrong?
My college roommate – who I have known since elementary school – lost her husband to COVID last week.
Today, his step sister died of COVID. Apparently his mother also died of COVID, his brother is not doing well due to COVID, and another sister is recovering from COVID.
Makes me kind of wonder if some families’ genetic makeup makes COVID worse for them compared to other people.
Sounds like a match made in heaven to me!
They should do drugs.
Pepe, thanks for that PA hearing link. In the comments they said PA voters requested 1.8 million ballots. They counted 2.5. No fraud to be seen the AP has called it.
They should do drugs.
And go to key parties.
Interesting point, Theresa. At this point I know at least a dozen people who’ve had it and maybe upwards of two dozen. Including my 85 yo mother who was hospitalized for three days and then sent home. One died. He was 83. Don’t know anything about his health at the time but he was a life long pipe smoker. All of the others are at least 58 and have kicked its ass. Most had at least one and usually several comorbidities. And then you have situations like this.
Fuck a bunch of Chinese commies is all I know.
Roamy, I saw you got back to me on your background. I’m a ceramic engineer. Most of my career has been working with zirconia on O2 sensors and fuel cells. I’ve also done work with some other odd material. We were trying to plate Zr metal out of a molten fluoride salt bath on to uranium here a few yeas ago. Worked with a company in your neck of the woods call Plasma processes. They plate iridium onto a carbon mandrel and then plate W or Re or some other refractory metal over the top to make positioning rocket thruster nozzles. All the materials are electroplated out of molten salts and they helped to get the process figured out. Work with a giant Russian dude down there in Huntsville. He’s a good guy.
there are few perfect marriages.
roast beef and horseradish is one of them. Yum.
Sous vide arm roast, sliced thin.
ceramic engineer? those fancy plates at Wal Mart, that ceramics?
Call me a heathen, I like the Ocean’s Eleven remake. Not as good as the original but what is? Perfectly enjoyable flick.
good movie, I agree.
Jay, Technically I could probably do that, but don’t have any experience with it. In collage I worked for Koller in the plant where all their glass enamel is made. It’s on all their tubs and sinks. They have a plant there that does nothing but make toilets. It’s all clay based and it’s really hard to keep a consistent product. That would have been a miserable place to work. It was kept at a very high humidity so the parts would dry slowly after being removed from the molds. I always joke I went to school to make really cool ash trays.
Friend’s husband’s brother passed away – brain cancer, not COVID. My bad on that one.
Diocletian enhanced Rome’s prestige.
Leaving this comment here for Thermadin – I know Plasma Processes very well – a small business contract and some of their materials on orbit right now. I’m not working with the Russian dude right now but know exactly who you’re talking about.
I’ll be working on zirconium mirrors in the new year, but that’ll be the pure metal, not the oxide. My ceramics work is mostly radiation shielding and thermal control coatings (zinc oxide, zinc orthotitanate, titanium oxide pigments).
Mini-me’s boyfriend is majoring in ceramic engineering. We annoy everyone by talking shop. Which I’m probably doing here, too.
