Sounds like a Japanese monster movie.
The Jr. influence. Trump has promised if elected to stop fluoride from being put into our nation's water supply. I really don't have an issue with that. Why was it put in in the first place? I drink a fair amount of tap water and still had a tooth decay on me. People point to scientific consensus. Bear in mind though scientific consensus was once in favor of lobotomies and electroshock therapy. Just sayin' consensus sometimes evolves and isn't etched in granite. Don't know if RFK Jr. plans to ban fluoride from toothpaste though and we may have to all switch over to Tom's of Maine. I kind of prefer to not get cavities.
Lots of pro-abortion ads on the TV. There might be some people out there who are ok with paying higher food prices for the next four years so long as they can arrange for an abortion. Talking about the Harris voters. Worked in a library once and the older secretary told me that back in the day people didn't even like to use the word "abortion." Had a negative connotation. Now it's like hey abortion. They say nobody is really for feticide though. People just do it a lot it seems.
Election Eve. Just rambling:)
No floride in Christian Brothers - just avoid the ice if you prefer.
ReplyDeleteI like at least one ice cube, small to medium tumbler half ginger ale and half CB. Sprite or 7UP will do.
DeleteWhat's up in Iowa? Trump carried it both times he ran, led by 18 points in June and now trails by 3. His laryngitis problem? Will take your POV - no matter who wins and how messy the afterbirth, we commoners will plod on as usual, complain but remain unaffected. It's what we do.
ReplyDeleteIowa's 6 votes beats Idaho's 4 votes. But yeah what happened in Iowa?
DeleteWhy does the Electoral College remind me of Family Feud's fast money? EC you need 270 Family Feud you need 200+ but same principle. Like a question on the game show Iowa 6 points helps a little but it's like not hitting the most popular answer. Maybe Steve Harvey should run the election.
ReplyDeleteTold the Mrs. the other night I'd be glad to vote for Steve Hartman.

I know you're always glad to share your opinion with anyone but reading just now about non-response bias in polling and how that might be underestimating Trump. I might fall into this I'm busy don't bother me category. Some are saying they're repeating the polling mistakes of 2016.
ReplyDeleteYeah, every one seems fascinated with polls. But they all afterall, just opinions by the opiniated (as you note elsewhere)
DeleteI'm no data expert of course I just find it rather strange the abundance of polls always find this race so neck and neck. I mean mathematically what are the odds that even happens?
DeleteTrue, some people refuse to answer polls, other give the wrong answer. Saw a piece on divided families where they lie about their vote, just to keep the peace. It's OK - votes a private. Odd thing about the dying internet - I was opining over at Shaw's and Microsoft interrupted and kicked me off. I'm thinking maybe it was Steve Bannon's electronic basement plumbers, but I got it back to normal.
ReplyDeleteIt seems Microsoft is OK with your blogflow. good for you!
You're opinionated and opinionated people are much more likely to answer polls than those who are not so the thinking goes. I don't know you to lack an opinion on any subject. You'd give your pov to a squirrel in the park. It's possible people like you are over-represented in polling.
ReplyDeleteIs that your opinion?
ReplyDeleteI have no opinion on the NY Yankees, but what the heck happened?
ReplyDeleteI'll always sample the World Series but when it's that lopsided I watch something else. The Yanks played like the Mets.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm seeing more items in my newsfeed talking about problems with polling because there's the fear Trump wins big tomorrow. The head pollster at Rasmussen feels it's not that close and Trump may have a lot of red states tomorrow. An inexact science though.
ReplyDeleteIt's my opinion you're opinionated. I am too but some issues like student loan forgiveness I don't have a solid view on yet but the ones who are against it make strong arguments.
Is there a 'To Hell With Daylight Savings Time' party?
ReplyDeleteDown the hall from the To Hell With The Electoral College party.
ReplyDeleteNot to mention the I've Been to Diddy's Party.
ReplyDeleteProbably has a wide stance.
ReplyDeleteSmoked my pipe late in the day yesterday. Street lights coming on at 5:30 PM. Doesn't feel right.
ReplyDeleteDoctors are always confused about pipes - their form only reads cigaretts per day. They should have a conversion factor or something.
ReplyDeletePiping is the elegant art. Wondering what doctors do to relieve stress.
