Has Local News gone pre_Gutenburg?

The Greatest Show on Earth.

In the distant past, the publishers of a small local newspaper did not have a reporter available to review a show I was producing. This was great because i carry my own reviews and most newspaper publishers are happy to fill a column with words. That kind of frames the advertisements with gray space in the lay out.

We had great reviews. It was a terrible show.

Fast Forward to the Twenty First century.

I want to place an ad in a local paper.

Both of the publishers are dead. There is no small local newspaper.The reporter whose byline i borrowed so long ago was working at a motel.on the old us highway through town.

The reporter commented." the paper was a rag; It died."

I guess they were all rags. I guess they all died.

seriously it is time to talk about peace in the ukraine.

this will have to be negotiated sooner or later , why not sooner?

here is my proposal to begin negotiations

the 4 state solution -



1. immediate cease fire in place

2 look down at the new zelensky-putin line, eastern boundary of of ukraine

3. ukraine full nato membership-

4.those areas between the "zelput line" (or maybe just the "z line&quot and the former western boundary of russia to be divided appropriately between 2 or 3 statelets. each state self governing with assistance from goldman sax or the world bank.

5, the statelets to be totally disarmed and protected by a contingent of blue helmeted bangla deshis, or sherpa or canadians. maybe assigning canadians not such a good idea? can only try.

6. after a generation or 2 allow the statelets to join alliances and such



move we immediately and unanimously agree to proposal 1 , and adjoin until tomorrow to begin negotiations on proposal 2.

those children in the trenches, on both sides, could use a warm fire and a cup of potato squeezins on what must be a chilly night on the steppes.

maybe i'm an original series anti villain? spoiler alert

my old lady came out into the garage and breathed a cloud of something that i promised not to do before i got a prescription for it.

i feel as if william shatner had marooned me here whith a million clones of the reason i left the solar system in my rear view mirrors to get a pack of cigarettes in the first place.;

propaganda offensive 2024

i'm beginning to hear the chatter of the first propaganda offensive of election year.

they think they can hang epstein's life, and his death, on us.

i think we know better, who epstei'n's wing man was for decades.;


. the flight manifests prove that epstein shuttled people from dc to palm beach. not the island. are the released manifests and the lists of passengers real? consider the source. it will be coming from the usual suspects.

and why are they so happy that trump is not on the manifest? sense of relief? who expects an egotistic billionaire to ride in some one else's jet? more likely the pedophiles raced each other to the island.

so far i don't have a link. just their goofy message board posts.

14th amendment, paragraph 3

i can only think of 2 cinfederate who had gis block lifted by comgress, and became governor. can tiy think of any ithers?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_T._Nicholls

these are good quotes from the congressional record ........

"I think that we made the attempt [the war for secession] under the most favorable circumstances...of course we all regret our want for success; but I do not believe that there is anywhere any desire for a renewal of the attempt." f t nicholls

nichills lost an arm in the shenandoah valley and a leg at chancellorsville.he also lost an eye at ruchmond before robt e lee sent west for a desk job. from the congressional record ......

"My war record is a source of private misfortune without a corresponding gain to anyone. My services to my country (in 1874 he is NOT talking about the usa as his country). were not worth the price to me. Every battle I went into I was wounded, and so I could not serve all the time." f t nicholls2]

one more quote, from gen nicholls opponent in 1876"

"i'm, twice the man the general is" stephen packard repub nominee

that 1876 election was contested across the south. nicholls became governor as part of the "corruot bargain" that made rutherford b hayes president and ended reconstruction.

back to the present, and trump is compared to this guy, who did not shirk his duty to a lost cause for bone spurs or anything rlse.

jardiance vs januvia

i recently lost abt 40 lbs which lowered a1c dramatically. my endocrinologist called as soon as she got the results and stopped my lantus immediately. later that week my primary md took me off of januvia and started jardiance.

within days my appetite went to zero with nausea and weakness with a little dizziness. i stopped the jardiance and messaged the doctors to let them know. they are, of course, supportive and we are now monitoring the situation. blood sugar is a little higher but considerably more variable .

anyone else taking jardiance? how is it working for you?

medical marijuana / vapeing

can anyone talk to me about the basics of vaporizing oil cartridges. what equipment do i need for starters?

living better with technology?

well, i don't know. this popped up on my feed. the numbers seem incredible so i have to ask, do this many people have sex robots?

even worse. how the fell did their algorithm make them send me this information?
To explore the industry further, the publication analyzed the percentage of people who own a sexbot worldwide, and it may be more than you think. Bedbible’s research found that a whopping 17.2% of people worldwide own or have had sex with a sexbot. The gender demographics were very similar with 17.8% of men and 16.5% of women who own or have had sex with a mechanical human.
