OMG. A Welcome Back, Kotter reference! Nice.

Maybe, but what does that have to do with anything??? /s

Hey, my doc just said I was low on vitamin Mercury Hexachlorobenzene Polychlorinated biphenyls(PCB) 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofurans (TCDF) 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. I'm saved!

Wonderful post. Thanks. I use 5calls as it makes me anxious to make these types of calls. The format and guide help immensely. I mostly get the voicemail, but on occasion I get an empathetic intern (D).

Cory Booker gets kudos after his speech and I applauded him for it. Unfortunately, he voted against limiting arms sales to Israel shortly thereafter. That earns him condemnation. Two calls.

I keep calling my reps and encouraging them to publicly stand up to this regime. I've now incorporated my governor into the call rotation, too. I really struggle with the business as usual approach being shown and desire more. We need more from our representatives (D or R). Please call and tell them so.

I've always felt that road trips are liberating and (since 9/11) air travel is dehumanizing. Even more so now. Air travel through the US can (results vary based on skin tone and/or political viewpoint) result in a torture camp being the final destination.

How do they twirl their clubs? Do they have special shoes to allow their toes to grab things? And where do they find all these armless people? ~Sorry~

older vacs is that they tend to use disposable bags

Yes. I have emptied many disposable bags and kept on using them. Takes five or ten minutes and is a filthy job (don't rip it!), but quicker than chasing down more bags.

I'll bet you could use some type of modern sealant to make a "rubber" gasket. Spooge it out onto a glass or stainless surface, shape it and let it dry. Trim to fit and viola. Bob's your auntie.

In light of the hard times coming down the pike, we'll all need to be more resourceful with mending and maintaining all the products that were planned to be scrap after one year (or warranty expiration).

Edit: I would also add that if this gasket touches food or food surfaces, do not use just anything that might transfer toxic elements. Also, I hang on to all sorts of stuff and have a stash of rubber bits I toss into a bin. Something could be made from that as well. My pack-rat ways are going to finally pay off. ;(

Her name is Marisa.

I would imagine a metric shit-ton of money got poured into the Latinos for Trump movement. It was very effective.

I would love to see some irrefutable evidence produced to convince people of that. I am inclined to think so. We already know he lied about almost everything except becoming a dictator and ejecting immigrants. He also had the disinformation apparatus and full machinations of foreign influence behind him. Can’t embody everything here but that combined with the DNC being complicit to some degree leading to a laisse faire voter block spelled disaster for non-fascist ilk. I just haven’t seen anything about voter irregularities that were supportable yet. Maybe some are just barely irregular enough to align all of it into a win. I’m not an electionologist so what the hell do I know?
