@northernbassist In those days, gas turbines were too expensive and inefficient. Today, on the other hand, you could have a very small, reliable gas turbine turning a generator to provide power for an electric drivetrain. It would still be outrageously expensive, but imagine how cool it would be to start one up! Plus, turbines can run on anything. Gas, diesel, biofuel, vodka...

@DrJackBrown We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness...That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.

@scottyorange The kind with a big, juicy burger under it.

@feloneouscat Too bad their idiot constituents keep reelecting them. They are the real problem.

@LnzyHou He's tough but fair and extremely generous to people who deserve it. He doesn't suffer fools at all, but genuinely cares about the people who are really trying hard to succeed. He helps a lot of people, including former contestants of Hell's Kitchen, Top Level Chef and his Nightmares shows. Just don't be an "idiot sandwich" with him.

@CdnFreethinker What about the hundreds of millions of stupid people who keep voting for stupid people?

The last day, last Gold class races of the last Reno Air Races ever after 60 years of racing. T-6 Gold race now, followed by Sport, Jet and Unlimited classes. You can watch it here:

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a country on Earth that believed in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all? You know, someplace that believes in freedom? Too bad such a place doesn't exist.

@SuziqLeathers Yeah, we're not getting out of this without bloodshed. When 30% of the country is in a death cult, it's inevitable. It's going to get ugly.

When it's 120 degrees outside, you spend all day naked in the pool.

@CoyoteConscious I wonder why that is? Was he exposed early in life and conditioned to it? I know dogs can be trained and conditioned to ignore loud noises. Police and service dogs for example.

This is our first 4th without a dog in 22 years. Had to put our last one down a few weeks ago. I miss him, but I'm glad I don't have to watch him suffer from these idiotic fireworks. I hate this holiday.

@MookyTroubadour This is our first 4th without a dog in 22 years. Had to put our last one down a few weeks ago. I'm glad I don't have to watch him suffer from these idiotic fireworks. Like you, I hate this holiday.

So, my tax dollars are being spent to rescue a bunch of billionaires on their toy submarine operated by a company that thinks safety is a waste of time? I think it's a waste of taxpayer money.

@MookyTroubadour He just wants people to go back to long commutes so he can sell them his crappy cars.

Amazing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IW4TXPrB8Ug

Anyone see the latest episode of Succession? Were you surprised?
