Your jokes for today

 A traffic police constable stopped a motor bike: "Idiots, stop. You four are riding on a single bike. Don't you know it is a serious offence?"

Youngsters: "Four? Good grief, where is the fifth?"

Here is an oldie but goodie:

Chicken Gun
Scientists at Rolls Royce built a gun specifically to launch dead chickens at the windshields of airliners and military jets all travelling at maximum velocity. The idea was to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the strength of the windshields.
American engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on the windshields of their new high speed trains. Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American engineers.
When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted through the control console, snapped the engineer's back-rest in two and embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin like an arrow shot from a bow..
The horrified engineers sent Rolls Royce the disastrous results of the experiment, along with the designs of the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions.
Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo:
Defrost the chicken..

Well, what could go wrong here?

 Fat free....

I stopped at a fast-food restaurant recently. I was fascinated by a sign which offered Fat-Free French Fries. I decided to give them a try.

I was dismayed when the clerk pulled a basket of fries from the fryer, which was dripping with fat. He filled a bag with these fries and put them in my order.

"Just a minute!" I said. "Those aren't fat-free."

"Yes, they are. We only charge for the potatoes . . . the fat is free!

Used Car

It was a small town and the patrolman was making his evening rounds As he was checking a used car lot, he came upon two little old ladies sitting in a used car. He stopped and asked them if they were stealing the car. They said "Heavens no, we bought it."
He said, "Then why don't you drive it away".
Each of the women said "We can't drive".
The officer momentarily shook his head and then asked "Then why did you buy it?"
They answered, "We were told if we bought a car here, we'd get screwed, so we are just waiting.

Is this something to give a crap over?

 A List Of 16 Major Fires That Have Occurred At Key Food Industry Facilities In The U.S. Since The Start Of 2022

Unlike some, I don't think there is anything nefarious going on here.

I mean, things happen. One of the items listed causing a fire is a boiler explosion. I used to work on boilers and I am here to tell you they can be easy to fuck up and cause to explode. I was personally involved in two boiler explosions, neither of which was my fault. But sometimes things just happen.

How many food production facilities are there in the usofa? And think about all of the competent?? people running them and the feasibility of a fire happening.

And once again, fires happen in industrial settings all the time. Maybe the media is just concentrating on food facilities at this time.

Garlic festival will be a thing of the past

 Gilroy Garlic Festival canceled indefinitely

This is a shame. Not because I want to go to the festival, but because it is an ending of sorts. A change if you will.

The Garlic Festival has been a fixture in California for a long damn time. The article says 42 years, but I think it is longer.

Garlic ice cream, garlic jelly, hell they might've even had garlic possum guts for all I know. The couple of times my wife and I went they had every garlic concoction known to man and a few known by space aliens.

Fertilizer

 I have been trying to find some fertilizer for veggies in something larger than a 1, 2 or 5 lb bag. There is a Tractor Supply close by so I looked on their website and found they had general purpose 10-10-10 fertilizer  in 40lb bags. 

So I called my local store and found out they did not have any.

Back to the website, and saw they had a shopping cart so I went to order online and have it delivered to the store. Holy crapanitley. I selected 4 bags at $18 each and hit go to checkout. Bill came out about $193. I just about shit a brick.

4 bags is about $72, but they wanted $115 for shipping. No thank you.

I have looked other places and I cannot find fertilizer in bags larger than 5 lbs except online. 

So I guess a crapload of small baggies is in my future. Hear that nsa, I said small baggies.

Does adding more ethanol to fuel damage the engine more?

 U.S. considers adding more ethanol to gasoline to lower pump price -sources

Will more ethanol in gasoline damage the seals in the engine? 

Ethanol in gas to lower the prices? Not gonna lower the price enough to purchase a can of veggies. Not to mention it gets less miles per gallon so you gonna wind up purchasing more fuel in the longrun.

Farmers are gonna sell the corn to ethanol producers. There goes the food supply to cattle that we all love to eat. 

Here's  an idea. How about if you government types quit screwing around with things like gasoline and just let us people decide what we want to do? Because if you continue screwing things up we the people just might decide to buy some more rope and hang your sorry asses.

Don't know if this is a joke or the truth.

 Guns – Good Question, Better Answer!

Regardless of how you feel about gun laws, you have to love this!
This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.
This is a portion of an ABC radio interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
But you're equipping them to become violent killers.
GENERAL COSGROVE:
Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?

The broadcast went silent for 46 seconds and when it returned, the interview was over.

My sentiments exactly

 I found this over at Grouchy Old Cripple

I completely forgot today was tax day until I stopped by his site and read his take on it. Which is below. I thought it appropriate enough to share with you guys.

Tax Day

APRIL 18, 2022

So Tax Day has come and gone. I spent Easter with my sister and had to hear her piss and moan about having to send the gummint a bunch of money. If only more people would piss and moan about that. Then we could get rid of the RINOs and Dimocrats and restore some fiscal sanity to gummint spending.

Back when Neal Boortz was still on the air, every Tax Day, he would challenge his listeners to ask friends, relatives, and coworkers how much they had to pay in taxes. Of course the answer would be, “I didn’t pay anything. I got money back.”

That’s the scam that is withholding. You overpay the gummint in taxes and then they send you some of your money and you think it’s a gift. You’ve just given the gummint an interest free loan.

Since I’m a SRF© and get a lot of my income from investments, I have no withholding other than my pension and my 401-K withdrawal. So, I have to pay quarterly estimated taxes. I usually am able to get it pretty close so I wind up owing the gummint a few hundred dollars on Tax Day. If you owe too much they penalize you.

I would like to see withholding abolished and move Tax Day to election day. I would like to see how the election would turn out if all taxpayers had to write a check to the gummint before they went to vote. Remember, the Republicans are in on this scam as well. They have no problem passing huge spending bills. Look at the Bush 43 days. That’s why the RINOs were against the Tea Party.

I’m dreaming. None of that will happen. Both parties will continue to spend us into oblivion.

We’re doomed!

Deep thought for today.

 

Railroad Mandated Shipping Reductions

 US Rail Carriers Are Cutting Fertilizer, Grain, Coal Shipments

Looks like more victims of this stupid covid lockdown bullshit. 

Apparently staffing issues may be causing some of this. And what is causing staffing issues? Probly the damn govmint paying people to sit on their asses.

What do you think will happen if farmers can't get their fertilizers for the farm veggies and stuff they grow and sell to us? They can eventually revert to 1800's technology of composting, manure spreading etc. but not largescale enough to make the same kind of output. And it won't help right now.

More and more and more it looks to me like this whole covid thing has been engineered to bring america to its knees and maybe even the whole world.

And I think they are winning.

 

Gas Misery Index

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, in January 2021 the national average price per gallon of gasoline was $2.33. Compared to today’s national average price of $4.24, Americans are spending $1,003.00 more a year on gasoline today than when President Joe Biden first entered office. 

I am not paying extra for gas because I retired last june and my wife and I hardly go anywhere now.

But. If I was still working I would be paying lots extra. Or the company that I was working for would be that is.

When I was working, my job was to travel between customers and check things out. On most days I would fill my tank once, maybe every other day. But on my longest trips I would fill up twice per day. 

And with the price of gas at over five bucks per gallon that's gotta add up.

I wonder if the socalled 81 million voters have let this shit into their heads yet?

Friday Funnies

 Not a single person asked if I could run fast in my new shoes today...

Being an adult is stupid.

My son....
A young punk gets on the cross town bus. He's got spiked, multicolored hair that's green, purple & orange. His clothing is a tattered mix of leather rags. His legs are bare and he's without shoes. His entire face and body are riddled with pierced jewelry and his earrings are big, bright red, yellow and green feathers. He sits down in the only vacant seat, directly across from an old man who just glares at him for the next ten miles.

Finally the punk gets self-conscious and yells at the old man, "What are you looking at you old fart! Didn't you do anything wild when you were young?"

Without missing a beat the old man replied, "Yeah. Back when I was very young and in the Navy, I got really drunk in Singapore & had sex with a parrot. I thought you might be my son."

Outdone

A strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of Morris, one of the older workers.

After several minutes, Morris had had enough. "Why don't you put your money where your mouth is?" he said: "I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won't be able to wheel back."

"You're on, old man," the braggart replied: "It's a bet! Let's see what you got."

Morris reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, "All right. Get in."

Looks like Elon Musk is making the whole world panic.

If you live in town with no garden area, buy some containers and packaged soil and start container gardening. If enough people start doing this, maybe the damage here in the former usofa can be mitigated.
