They haven't done that in years because someone made a noise complaint. Mosque towers, unlike church steeples, make me think of the Dark Lord Sauron's tower in Mordor (Lord Of The Rings).

- 28Posted by Abaco 1 day, 3 hours ago to Thoughts to one’s self or economic disobedience out loud (this is going to be long)Vietnam was a disaster that, for the most part, we all learned something from.
My son's autism literally set my family back $1M, much through my wife not working so she could take care of him. No recourse. And, autism is affecting millions of families now - most via families broken up with divorce (around 85% of them, reportedly). America's government has F'd American families. Hard. The Great Recession really walloped our generation. It caught most off-guard. I watched it happen as though it was in slow motion. We're not any more robust now, either. We learned very little from it.
I have zero faith that we're going to economically recover as a nation now. Trump came in with a lot of hope but is now promoting 50-yr mortgages, artificially low interest rates, saying (in a FOX interview recently) that we don't have people smart enough to build rockets, using tariffs instead of cutting taxes and regulations domestically. Higher education has jumped the shark. A theater teacher at the local university had the theater class my son was in write two essays on their white privilege. (Son didn't go back) I've heard ZERO consideration from this administration about the national debt...We're just charging ahead as though it's all a mirage. Just consume, consume, consume... Our enemies are uncloaking and soon we'll see Sharia courts in NY, while more open communists are being elected to run our most beautiful cities. But, we had a good run...
If Bondi would just arrest one or two criminals that'd be nice. Maybe just one! For too long the MAGA people have been saying the "Just wait! We need to clean out the Judicial Branch first." Well, we're running out of time - as the Trump decision to alienate his constituents who wanted justice for the Epstein victims (most of his constituents, by the way) will result in a big ass-whoopin in the midterms.
There's a big headache-induced rant for you this evening...haha.... - 29Posted by $ Suzanne43 1 day, 5 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Well said. You nailed it.
- 30Posted by tutor-turtle 1 day, 5 hours ago to Thoughts to one’s self or economic disobedience out loud (this is going to be long)Damn right I'm touchy about vailed comments...Maybe it's because I grew up dirt poor in an inner-city housing project, self educated out of poverty, worked my ass off for over 50 years and earned every dime that went through my hands.
I paid for my grandparents and parents SS and never complained about it. Every future generation pays for the preceding. That's the deal.
If your elected officials aren't holding up their end of the bargain, place the blame squarely where it belongs. - 31Posted by tutor-turtle 1 day, 6 hours ago to Thoughts to one’s self or economic disobedience out loud (this is going to be long)By current estimations SS will run out while I'm still alive. So don't think you're in this alone.
And I paid in to the system for over 50 years.
If you really want to know why you won't be getting the social security benefits? You can place the blame squarely in two things:
A) The Uniparty Congress that spends money on pet projects that only benefit the lobbyists that fund their reelections. This fact has not changed since the income tax and the FED was created in 1913.
You want to change things, End the FED. End income taxation and all that it pays for, including SS.
Be careful what you ask for, you might just get it.
SS might have survived to 2050, or longer if it wasn't for part B:
B) The 30 million+ illegal Aliens that suck the life out of every social program this country can offer, the ones that do work take our jobs at slave wages, they all compete for housing, food, medical, schools, clothing etc... each and every illegal drive up the cost of everything you and I could ever want or need.
You want change? It won't come easy. It won't come without pain. - 32Posted by tutor-turtle 1 day, 6 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .The actual, true translation of the word Islam is "submission". No joke.
Conversion to islam by persuasion or by the sword, matters not to them.
They are here to conquer. Period.
You've been warned. Take due notice and act accordingly. - 33Posted by JohnRandALL 1 day, 8 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME THANKSGIVING DAY EDITIONOh, my neighbors have them UP and ON!
- 34Happy to see everyone enjoying their Thanksgiving. We spent it traveling by air from Tucson to FLL, for a cruise, but it’s actually almost an afterthought (we booked it a year ago….)
The big news for us is our return to DFW (where we have always belonged, and should never have left). I’m just so glad I’ve lived long enough to get back there (in about a month). We’ve already bought a house and just can’t wait to move in!
Also every day in every way I learn a little bit more about why and how my son - already a delightful person - and his wife - even more so - are so kind as to help me when I need it. That may sound a little strange but what I mean by that is that now we have bought the house but can’t be there (job transfer isn’t until next month) he goes and checks on the house, makes sure everything’s okay and no pipes are burst. Does all the little stuff that will keep the house “alive” until we can get there.
Lots to be thankful for, and that includes all of you, too! - 35Posted by $ Suzanne43 1 day, 10 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Just got back from having Thanksgiving at the Dearborn Inn. Didn’t hear the call to prayer, but the residents who do find it very annoying. The mayor said that he isn’t going to turn the volume since the decibel level is just fine. What a jerk! I love your idea.
- 36Posted by CaptainKirk 1 day, 11 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .I want to hack into Dearborn's "call to prayer" system, and cause it to go off every 10 minutes after sunset. Adjusting the volume randomly.
Because they just passed an ordinance saying it is okay, and not disruptive... - 37Posted by $ Suzanne43 1 day, 11 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Yes, it is. Radical Islam also considers it mandatory to lie if it furthers its cause.
- 38Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 14 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME THANKSGIVING DAY EDITIONWonderful, we went to my daughter's for Thanksgiving and she lives about an hour away and my wife and I decided on a Christmas music station for the trip, too! 60s Christmas rock rocks!
- 39My daughter and her hubby was playing radio station's Christmas music in the car during an hour's drive to and from the Thanksgiving feast
My little granddaughter was riding with us. .
I already knew that "soft rock" station started to nonstop play Christmas music BEFORE Halloween.
Me an old dino has liked rock ever since it was called rock 'n roll. - 40Posted by $ allosaur 1 day, 16 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .You hit that nail on the head.
- 41Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 18 hours ago to Just How Severely America’s Standard Of Living Has ErodedI suspect potatoes are still inexpensive, but the packaging, shipping, and handling costs are much bigger. Not to mention government printing money faster than drops of water cascade over Niagara Falls. And then there's forever growing government controls and regulatory bureaucracy...
- 42Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 18 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Love 'em all, OUC! Nice way to start my day! Ending with a Star Trek reference is always welcome, LOL! Simple answer to #5: Yes.
Ha, I like the first and then near the end, "What are you in for?" to close it. Thanks again, OUC! - 43Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 18 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Could answer it in one word: Conquest.
- 44Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 18 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME THANKSGIVING DAY EDITIONUh-oh! This is the day after Thanksgiving so I'm late to this party. However, yesterday I was not late to my daughter's for a great dinner with family! I hope all you Gulchers had a great day as well!
Love the memes, OUC, thank you! - 45Posted by $ kddr22 1 day, 19 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .perfect start to the day lol
- 46Posted by 73SHARK 2 days, 1 hour ago to Happy ThanksgivingHappy Thanksgiving to all. I'm with mccannon01 in reaching the stage where we can let the kids put it all together and all we have to do is show up. Just successfully completed another trip around the Sun Tuesday and still feeling pretty good.
- 47Posted by $ allosaur 2 days, 2 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Me dino once read that with my own two green eyes.
Yeah, they are really green. Kinda figures. - 48Posted by $ Olduglycarl 2 days, 2 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .From what I understand.
That's shria law and it's RADICAL Islam - 49Posted by 73SHARK 2 days, 3 hours ago to TGIFfunnies 11/28/25 EDITION: Black Friday Questions . . .Doesn't the Quran command them to kill any non-muslims that refuse to convert?
