Obama eating crow over Trump Carrier deal?


President Obama once mocked Trump for vowing to keep Carrier jobs in the US. Who's laughing now?

Once again, Obama shows he no clue.
:smile:






bigsmile

He has always been far too preoccupied with globalization and socialism, and how he wants the world to perceive him.

And almost always at the expense of  Americans.

I copied this from another post that I made on another thread. I would like to hear others thoughts about it.

Here is something that I've noticed about the great majority of women on dating sites. They never seem to want to ask a man anything about himself. The man has to ask everything about the woman. If he doesn't, he's not showing enough interest. For anyone to have a conversation with another person, there has to be a give and take between them.

One cannot carry the whole conversation by themselves. It would absolutely thrill me for a woman to ask me about myself in conversation. But, in the past 11 years that I've been doing this online thing, I would say that 98% of women never ask me about myself. I find it odd that they go out with me, but never ask anything about me. I find it odd that if I didn't just come out and start telling about myself, they would never know about anything concerning me.

But, if I'm not constantly asking about every aspect of their lives, they think I'm not interested. Shouldn't it work both ways?



I think most men want to cut to chase, make a deal, not waste time and women want to talk about it, take their time and have feelings and shite



RUN ! Before they tell ya, how we are wrong in our thinking. rofl

I wonder how heartbroken the mccaw will be without its owner?


I agree, this will be devastating to the bird. The bird doesn't know or care what this man is or is not.

I know a family that has one. And in that bird's mind, he has ONE friend. And he is devoted to that woman.

He hops off his (expensive :laughing:), in door tree, the same time each day, and walks the length of 2 rooms (he chooses not to fly there), hops on the kitchen table, and has toast and tea (not kidding), every morning with her.
He "ALEX" , has his own small saucers to eat, and she has her's.

And they sit in silence together. But the bond is quite obvious. happy

Oregon Jailbird, 38, Posed For Mug Shot With Jail Bird, 4

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/jailbird/oregon-jailbirds-903821/

An Oregon man arrested Monday posed for a mug shot with his pet parrot on his shoulder.

Following a court hearing, a Washington County judge ordered Craig Buckner, 38, jailed for violating release terms in connection with multiple misdemeanor theft cases.

Buckner, not expecting to land behind bars, arrived at the courthouse with his four-year-old red parrot, which he placed in a tree before heading inside the building.

After Buckner was taken into custody, he told a court deputy that his companion parrot was outside in a tree. Concerned for the bird’s safety, the deputy accompanied Buckner--who was handcuffed and shackled at the waist--to retrieve the parrot (which, by then, was surrounded by crows).

As seen above, Buckner posed for a series of mug shots, one of which shows the parrot perched on his left shoulder. The parrot was subsequently picked up by a friend of Buckner’s who agreed to care for the bird.

Buckner will be able to reunite with his parrot if he can post $10,000 bond, according to jail records.

According to his Facebook and LinkedIn pages, Buckner owns Pacific Coast Cannabis Plantation, a “Medical marijuana/Hash Lab” that grows “High Quality Flower and we make concentrates both solvent and solventless extracts becoming one of the most sought after products in the dispensaries.”

excessive self-indulgence by rich hedonists. That kind of stuff goes back at least to the Greeks and Romans of ancient times. Probably before that too, but we don't have preserved writings about the earlier ones.

Holy sh@t !

I only had a 33 out of 50. And it said, "Well Done" !?

I blame the decline of the American public school system. (That geography is no longer taught). And the internet. And the P.C. mentality of "everyone gets a trophy", therefore eliminating healthy competition.



Excuse me as I run out to buy an OLD FASHIONED paper/ book Atlas. And begin writing formal apologizes to Spain, Portugal , South Africa.... and so on, with OLD FASHIONED pen and paper.


I think I scared myself !

I'm not Roman Catholic-  So, I wasn't sure what "The 7 Deadly Sins" or "The 7 Virtues" are.

Now... surprised
I may need some Priests, Pastors and Rabbis and Google as back up.

Seven Deadly Sin’s Party: Several guests treated by paramedics at ‘Candyman’ Gold Coast party

Travers Beynon (centre) is developing a reputation as the next Hugh Hefner, his publicist says.

http://marygreeley.com/?page_id=41175/

December 3, 2016 – Paramedics were called several times last night to a huge house party hosted by self-proclaimed Gold Coast playboy Travers Beynon.

Three people were treated for possible drug or alcohol related problems, while a woman in her 20s suffered head and neck pain after falling from a dance podium at the riverfront mansion in Helensvale.

A 27-year-old man suffered cuts from window glass and a 23-year-old woman was bitten by a white-tailed spider.

Police also attended the address after a noise complaint.

Mr Beynon holds annual, lavish parties at what he calls his Candyshop Mansion, this year’s theme was ”seven deadly sins”.

As well as DJs, fireworks, and bikini-clad models flown in from interstate, the party had a VIP room and an outdoor stage flanked by a large LED screen.

“It was a festival on steroids,” one party-goers said.

‘It certainly was a freak show’

Neighbors, however, were taken aback

“It certainly was a freak show on the road out front after the party when the seven deadly sin themed crew were waiting for their Uber cars,” he said.

The flamboyant tobacco baron, who owns the Freechoice chain, is also known for posting photos on social media of himself posing with scantily clad women.

Mr Beynon’s publicist said he was developing a reputation as the next Hugh Hefner, the well-known American adult magazine publisher.

Mr Beynon's party included a celebrity DJ and a series of rooms themed around the seven deadly sins.

Hundreds of people attended this party that went in the next morning.

"It was a festival of steroids", one party goer said.

The tobacco Barron is know for his Instagram pics with scanedly clad women.



The 7 Deadly Sins

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_deadly_sins/
According to the standard list, they are pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth,[2] which are also contrary to the seven virtues. These sins are often thought to be abuses or excessive versions of one's natural faculties or passions (for example, gluttony abuses one's desire to eat).

The 7 Virtues

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_virtues/
In the Catholic catechism, the seven Christian virtues or heavenly virtues refers to the union of two sets of virtues: from ancient Greek philosophy, are prudence, justice, temperance (meaning restriction or restraint), and courage (or fortitude); and the three theological virtues, from the letters of Saint Paul of Tarsus, are faith, hope, and charity (or love). These were adopted by the Church Fathers as the seven virtues.

A concept of seven deadly sins provides didactic contrast.

Snow in Hawaii: Why the locals aren't surprised

Heavy snowfall is forecast for the summits of Hawaii's biggest mountains, Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea, as wind and snow engulf the high peaks.


The Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope on the summit of Mauna Kea on Hawaii's Big Island is covered in snow on Thursday, Dec. 1, 2016.

HONOLULU

The summits of Hawaii's Big Island could get almost a foot of snow, with a winter storm warning in effect through Sunday.

Yes, it snows in Hawaii, Matthew Foster, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Honolulu, said he had to explain to some surprised out-of-state callers Friday.

"Typically when we get these snow events, it does get a lot of attention," he said, adding that he explains to curious callers that the snow is falling in a small, remote area where there are mainly telescopes and scientists. "We do have very high mountains here."


Once they realize the heights of the mountains, snow in the island state makes a little more sense, said Ryan Lyman, forecast meteorologist with the Mauna Kea Weather Center. Mauna Kea is nearly 14,000 feet above sea level.

The weather service forecasts new accumulations of about a foot of snow over the weekend. Temperatures are in the mid-20s to lower-30s.

That's a significant amount of snowfall, but not uncommon for the summits, meteorologists say.

Lyman said recent winters have seen totals of 30 to 36 inches.

It's enough snow to shut down operations on Mauna Kea, Lyman said. The mountain's access road is expected to remain closed until next week, he said.

The weather service doesn't keep track of what the record amounts of snowfall are on the summits. Heavy snow is often accompanied by wind, which create drifts that make it difficult to accurately measure snowfall, Lyman said.

Abundant snow on Mauna Loa's 13,677-foot summit could be seen at sunset Thursday from parts of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, said park spokeswoman Jessica Ferracane.

There was heavy rain in other parts of the state Friday, with a flash flood warning in effect for Oahu, Kauai and the Big Island.

_ After checking 19 sites.
 I am convinced Hawaii , meteorologists and humankind are clueless .
12 inches to 38 inches are possible.

My ex broke it off a few weeks ago. I initiated contact.

Why? Because you still want him in your life?
--------
He talk and message each other everyday but are not in a relationship.

Yea, you are. You are just not getting anything out of it.
--------
We don't see each other but he wants us to be best friends.

Sure he does, easier to keep tabs and track.
--------
He still wants to have control without the commitment

Exactly.
And you are use to that.

I don't think it it a matter of women hate talking about it.
I think they think, 'what is the point?'
Most women won't get off like like that. Unless, she is in a physical relationship with the guy. Sometimes, not even then.

Kind of like guys who tell dirty jokes in front of women. I doubt, women are thinking 'I want to do that guy, right here, right now '. I think, they want to get the hell away from him, ASAP. And tell other women, ' He is a pig'. 
Even the ones, who do the 'fake giggle', because they are uncomfortable.

Snoop Dogg goes to town on Colin Kaepernick for supporting Castro like an idiot without understanding what really happened in Cuba or who Castro really was. Does Snoop Dogg support Trump probably not but he should they seem to have the same mentality.
