Interesting !! I always keep his shoulder from coming up too. Its why you can put a wrist on the floor, schooch north-south around his head while keeping him flat on his back, and then lower your weight onto the shoulder (not his chest - just the shoulder). Which mechanism I wonder is that finish?

This was a slow cooked sweet potato mash (savory with onion, garlic, olive oil and seasonings - peels on for nutrition). Spinach w butter & garlic. The (dayum delish) sausage had the string on between links. I bought every ingredient from the neighborhood Feria today.

We arrived on Wednesday! Have to go get cell phones today and maybe start the vaccination certificate process at a clinic.

Sorry - I am headed the other direction to Montevideo, Uruguay. I will at least be only a one-hour flight away from the origin of where our ne waza focused Judo derivative morphed into being Brazilian. Anyhow, I digress - keep up the good fight!

You Sir are an inspiration. Sadly I am past the age to be accepted into Canada, and I am not a fan of cold weather after having spent 10 years in a Alaska, but I digress. Anyhow, keep up the good fight.

Less than a month to go! Cars sold. Tickets booked. Pet shipping arranged. Apostilled documents in hand. Down to just figuring out which items of the little we have left that get abandoned in my sister-in-law's garage and what is going with us in a suitcase.

Freedom Day is scheduled in October. Tickets have been purchased. A long-term Airbnb is reserved at our destination. Cars are sold. House is rented. Final paperwork is in process.

Common sense is what stupid people call their opinion.

When they break the economy in California the net-taker red states are going to be the ones to suffer. Damn these people are so stupid.

Given the curve for the average Trump supporter its possible that their readership could be in double digit and a standard deviation or two to the right of the mean.

Its not an accident that what a of red hat people think about science is supportive of profit making by the richest corporations and keeps the donations flowing to mega-pastors. Weak chumps whose egos are played against their own interests because someone told them their biases make them superior.

My former residence turned rental home has been sold! We signed the paperwork today. Now to pay the one off that I am living in and turn it into a rental. One step closer to escape!

This kind of thing happened to me a lot in Germany actually.

Which is why this multi-tour combat vet and 11th generation US-born Citizen is working hard to close up shop and leave forever.

I sometimes use my data skills to help gym owners.

Below is a bespoke analysis. The data is from Zen Planner and has been anonymized. Zen Planner is attendance software that gyms install on a tablet and customers use to check in when they arrive.

Interestingly I taught this at my 6 AM today. You didn't say it, but you also (automatically at this point) step your leg out before you bridge into him so that when you shrimp, your leg won't be in the way of your hips escaping =)

As a former Army linguist who learned Farsi and all about Iran in case of war, I give zero fucks about the Iranian regime. That said, I am quite fond of the people & culture.

Trump starting a war on false WMD pretenses to wag the dog is a lie this war veteran won't never fall for again.
