- 26Posted by mccannon01 23 hours, 55 minutes ago to Democracies Never LastI've seen that site some time back, but never got back to it. Thanks for the reminder! I enjoyed spending some time there, but will have to get back to it again.
My only apprehension of a new Constitutional convention is the country has moved so far left and so much "verbicide" has taken place since 1789, especially over the past 50 years, we may end up with a Constitution Marx would be proud of because a lot of similarity to the Communist Manifesto will permeate the new document. The first loss would be the second amendment, for sure. I fear we'd be totally screwed. - 27This is why a lot of my assets are in gold.
- 28Are you certain the solution is a Convention of the states and the Amendment process? Without the Militia of the several States, the US Constitutions is just a piece of paper – even after a Convention of the states.
- 29Posted by ssipress 1 day, 3 hours ago to Our children deserve a better education.In my experience (having spent WAY too much of my life in schooling by earning my law degree), education almost always happens outside of a classroom and definitely not in any school.
And by the way: the US Department of Education should be abolished, along with many other corrupt, wasteful, and practically or entirely useless government departments and agencies. - 30Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 3 hours ago to Trump Admin To Repeal Obama-Era Greenhouse Gas "Endangerment" FindingLOOSE THE LIBTARD HOWLERS!!!!!
- 31Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 3 hours ago to Why so much media coverage?Yep, that was my first thought: DEFLECTION away from more important things that are national newsworthy. Under normal circumstances this affair, as tragic as it is, wouldn't make my list of top 100 things to worry about.
- 32Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 3 hours ago to Our children deserve a better education.Perhaps Department Of Schooling would be more apt?
- 33Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 3 hours ago to The College Calculation Has FlippedI have a grandson that, in Texas, apprenticed as an electrician doing commercial and residential development contracts and worked 70 hour weeks and couldn't keep up with demand. He is now finishing his apprenticeship in Kansas and it's the same thing. His words, "Grandpa I'm making money like you won't believe and I'm not even a journeyman yet!". Yes, he had to join the union, but they are NEVER out of work. Side note: With this new no tax on overtime coming up means he will have even more money yet!
- 34I'm not so sure. Given how polarized the Dumbocrat Party is now, the moochers might elect or appoint an even worse set of looters!
- 35Posted by bkeiber 1 day, 4 hours ago to The College Calculation Has FlippedI started recommending the trades to 20 something men 20 years ago. It was obvious to me even then that MBA's would become useless over the coming years.
- 36. . . is he running again? lol!
- 37...so, since there's a Department of Education, is schooling the preferred term for a "better education" or is it the other way around?
- 38Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 5 hours ago to Our children deserve a better education.Keep up the good work as best as you can! And thank you!
- 39Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 5 hours ago to Our children deserve a better education.Years ago in my town a union rep said he wouldn't be happy until all students are bused. Today his dream is a reality. The roads are clogged several times a day and my school taxes are through the roof and his "dream" is part of it - side note: I didn't vote for any of this!
- 40Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 5 hours ago to The College Calculation Has FlippedJust thinking out loud here... It seems the generations that built and made the physical civilization we are living in are aging and dying off, meaning there is a demand for those that can keep it running or move it into the next phase. This will not be accomplished with "woke" or Marxist indoctrination, which is eating up academia and corporate America in too many places.
Edit add: I had my furnace/air conditioning system worked on recently and was delighted to have a smart 20-something show up to do the work and he knew what he was doing! Prior times it was a 50 or 60-something that came to my door. - 41Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 6 hours ago to The College Calculation Has FlippedHis type is what academia needs and from what I understand about you, jbrenner, is you are an Akston of the scientific field. Glad you are where you are!
- 42Posted by JakeOrilley 1 day, 7 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 2/9/26 EDITION: 1 Hit WondersYep! that life was worth a chuckle looking back...
- 43I'm. still laughing
- 44Posted by Lucky 1 day, 15 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 2/9/26 EDITION: 1 Hit WondersOUC- those words were used to imitate the language of the excessively one sided. Metaphorical?
Anyway, a story, yes I have known a 'bible basher'. A long time ago I was in a summer vac job, the guy looking after me did a good job with that, he was seriously repetitive. Kept bringing up his religion and giving me leaflets to read. Tiresome- yes, but not on the same scale as the closed minded 'progressives' we get nowadays.
Trump, hitler, human rights, trans, bi ..non-stop, that is when there no buildings to burn. - 45Ok, bible verse readers.
Don't think they didn't like or wanted to do those things. They thought it was their duty to warn others.
Like your mom or dad telling you XYZ could happen if you continued to do stupid stuff! LMAO, I lived THAT Life...still laughing - 46No, that's fallacy, the scientific community is glued to that nonsense. They have witnessed small yet powerful events from average stars like our sun and tried to blame it on Dwarf.dense/dead stars or binaries. They got it all wrong and as long as the get funding, they really don't care,
It happens to all stars in our galaxy. Science, Nasa, has witness the stars between us and the center of the galaxy go off one after another, we're next. - 47There was a LOT of scientific proofs in the first Book Ben put out, The Next End of Earth, 2 copies of which I lent out and disappeared! but regardless of variance, we are In the Current sheet now and have been for a few years judging by the changes in the Sun and all the other planets.including everything with the Earth.
There is a lot to unpack.
Ben has ruled out any sort of protection we could use for the Earth.
The nova blast itself will return everything we've ever made back to their original components down to the atomic level. (Its a Giant recycling! event)
I hope we do have extra time to at least try but the other planets will experience just as bad as us except they don't carry Human (or otherwise) civilization.
Wish I could attend all the events at the ranch but can't due to my wife's health, I need to stay close.
We'll know more as time goes on old friend, I'll be sharing more as time goes on.
Fingers Crossed . . .
Ps, It would be nice if we could survive on mars, even Micro Nova events are just too damn powerful and mars or the moon for that matter have no protection at all and we won't have much left when the time comes. - 48If you are interested in finding out about the Center for Science, Technology, and Advanced Research in and for Space (C-STARS) that I am part of and have an innovative curriculum for, e-mail me at jbrenner@fit.edu.
- 49I'll vote for Calvin Coolidge.
