Just started using Mastodon this week.

It doesn’t have the content of Twitter but it generally seems to have the capability.

What seems fairly obvious is its not the platform that adds value it’s the people contributing.

Very nice restrained cover of a classic Beatles song.

I wonder what artists feel when they attempt to cover a classic, beloved Beatles tune. They want to sound different from the original as well as previous covers but not deviate so far as to bring on the wrath.

Just reminded myself why I really cut back on responding to questions posted on various travel/road trip websites. Guy posts something like “driving solo with two large dogs from Chicago to LA in 4 days at Christmas with daily drives of 8hrs, 12hrs, 10hrs, and 6 hrs. Any tips?”

I politely pointed out that this was quite ambitious and he needed to add at least 10% to drive times, if not more, because spending less than twelve minutes stopping every two hours (10%) for dog and bathroom breaks is rushed and you also need to account for time to gas up and for eating. I also said he might run into traffic delays when going through big cities like Kansas City or when entering LA. I said that the 12 hour day is more likely a 14 hour day and he’d be driving in the dark before sunrise and into the sun at sunset and more nightime driving. I also told him that he had to be flexible because of posible weather challenges. So, I recommended adding at least a day or at least trying to better balance the drive times.

His reply was that he’s confident that he’ll be able to drive 10% faster that what Google maps conservative estimates say and that stopping every two hours for the dogs is way too leisurely. And, he deliberately picked the “southern” route so he doesn’t have to worry about weather and he had some plan to avoid traffic delays in big cities.

I guess it might be a learning experience. He did thank me for the input.

Same thing as always, freedom is for the right kinds of people, it is tyranny for the wrong kinds of people to have freedom, it is the task of the former to identify and punish the latter.

Nobody ever believes this and sorts themselves into the later category.

I have some very bad news for you, Belafon. Lakepointe church in Rockwall is what we church observers call a stealth Southern Baptist church. To wit, it pays into the various cooperative funds, is listed on the Southern Baptist Convention website, and it is a Southern Baptist church.

Now, lest you think that’s somehow unusual, it’s not. Attendees at The Summit Church in Raleigh, NC, had NO IDEA that they were part of the Southern Baptist Convention until their pastor, J.D. Greear, was elected president of the SBC in 2018. Like I said, Stealth Southern Baptists.

My point in bringing you this information is to let you know to temper your expectations. I suspect your relatives are still a fair bit to the right to where the Episcopalians would be considered a little too radical. But I could be wrong. Just sayin’.

PS I HATE THESE STEALTH SBC CHURCHES!

re: #2 A Cranky One

Telling the truth can be dangerous business.
Honest and popular don’t go hand in hand.
If you admit that you can play the accordion,
No one’ll hire you in a rock ‘n’ roll band.

But we can siiinnnngggggg … our hearts out
And if we’re lucky, then no neighbors complain.
Nobody knows where the beginning part starts out
But being human we can live with the pain.

Because life is the way we audition for God;
Let us pray that we all get the job.

On our long trips between New England and the midwest—no matter how fast I try to go to beat time—the Google maps estimates are pretty accurate.

re: #23 John Hughes

I make a 10-hour trip regularly with my family to drive to fish country and back. (I’m there now, in fact.) It’s a haul, but not unmanageable. When the kids were younger, we had to add up to 2 hours to account for diaper changes, feeding, and usually at least one kind of adverse incident such as a kid throwing up or a blowout diaper. Dogs would be even worse.

when i was in my 40’s and 50’s i could do 600 mile days on my harley.
maybe three in a row, and then i’d need a rest day or a few short days.

gas every 100 miles (i was towing a trailer so lower mpg) and sometimes a 50 mile, in between pit stop.

planning using nothing but maps - cause it’s all there was - i figured on an average throughput of 50 mph. it accounted for most everything

today i couldnt do 600 miles in a car

That’s not entirely true. We’ve doing them off-and-on for the last 17 years, South Jersey to the Hilton Head area to visit my partner’s folks, usually with a Boxer in the back seat.

We took frequent stops for both us and the dog. We were also very fortunate that both dogs in question were really, really good travelers. They were just happy to be in the car with us and usually napped most of the time.

That said, we’ve broken up that trip over the years because we’re getting older and it’s just easier to deal with.

Well, Onewheel is trying to make this a case of the evil gubmint stopping the sale of their product. I just had an argument with my brother, he thinks the CPSC should butt out but Onewheel can’t claim their board is self-balancing when it most certainly is not.

Same with us this summer.

When I was in the Navy, I made a single-slug drive from Virginia Beach to central Michigan. Never again.

The only long-distance slugs we made on our summer trip was from Blanc-Sablon, QC to Goose Bay, Labrador, and Labrador City to the St. Lawrence, because there are no places to stop at all (even for gas). Even then though, we’d pull over and walk around for a while.

And when I studied for the bar (audiotapes) in 1981 we drove from Ann Arbor to Acapulco, up the west coast of Mexico to Puerto Vallarta, ferried to Baja California, then ferried back to Los Mochis and on to Tucscon, then LA and San Francisco, and then back to Ann Arbor: 10,000 miles in five weeks!

Creighton, pop. 1,147 in Knox County, spent $1.3 million on building the state’s first reverse osmosis treatment system to filter out nitrate in 1993.

Seward, a city about half an hour west of Lincoln, spent $5 million.
Hastings spent $15 million on theirs.

Got to be a lot of product. Or maybe something else, now that I think of it. I always thought that they drove their bikes super slow in traffic to annoy average Japanese citizens, but maybe they just didn’t want to mess their hair.
