I would assume the cloth on the flag has broken down by now. It’s been getting blasted by unfiltered solar radiation for almost 60 years. I’m not sure what it was made of, but I wouldn’t expect thin cotton or polyester lasting in that environment for 60 years.

Finally a chance to share Mama’s Special Fried Rice.

Each day put your sink collections in a jar. Save in the fridge.

After a week, dump the collection in a bowl.

Add the following:

a pinch of salt and pepper.

one crushed clove or garlic.

2 tablespoons of soy sauce

1/2 tablespoon fresh grated ginger

In your wok, heat up 3 tablespoons of oil.

Add 2 cups cooked, room temperature rice.

Toss rice in wok until colour starts to change.

To the wok, Add 2-3 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon rice vinegar. Mix well.

Push rice to the side.

Add 2 tablespoons of oil and when up to temp add your sink collections from the bowl

Stir in the oil until the sink collections become cooked. Then stir together with the rice.

While hot, take entire contents of the wok and place in water tight, seal-able mason jar.

Bury mason jar in back yard.

Enjoy.

I’m going to put the large ones on my nipples then walk around finger-gunning everyone.

General Motors is preparing a C$1.1 billion manufacturing investment package across its Ontario operations as the Canadian auto industry confronts mounting pressure from United States tariffs and uncertainty over future cross border trade.

So GM is betting on Trump dying or TACOing they’re willing to beef up the Canada plant.

Companies from outside the US building plants in the US is a good idea.

It worked out fantastically well at the Hyundai plant in Georgia.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t remember Microsoft giving Trump chunks of gold as a gift and flowing a ton of money his way like Apple has. Apple has been pretty blatant with their Trump bribes.

The grocery stores around here rarely have produce from the US anymore - not that we were buying it. Funny thing, after they started bringing in produce from other countries, the prices came down.

Suits me just fine.

I had forgotten all about this scrub.

What a fun way to be reminded of him.

I use cloud storage.

At my company computer, I drop my backups to cloud if I forget my portable drive at home. At my home computer I pull those from cloud and store them on my home server.

That’s about as far as I trust cloud storage.

All Canadians call the USA America.

I don’t. I usually call it “the states” or “The US” or “shithole jesusland”

I only call it America when I’m mocking them.

To add to your Amazon entry, vevor.ca sells a ton of their stuff on amazon but you can buy it direct from their website for the same price or less with shipping included. Most of their products are mid-level China made things like Princess Auto.

Everything is made in China these days. It’s kind of unavoidable. But the quality isn’t that bad.

I just bought a basic spot welder for my company from there and it’s pretty damn good for the price.

Vevor and Princess Auto have replaced Amazon for 90% of my needs.

Geese are mostly harmless. They can give you a little pinch, but that’s about it. I never understood why people are afraid of them.

I was lucky enough to spend a couple of years around a flock and they’re really cool animals. They even remembered me when they returned in springtime. Geese are awesome.

What a weird little twerp.

Even the blue states have too many guns and Jesus for my liking.

I actually do hate linux as a desktop. It doesn’t suit my computer needs outside of maybe just browsing the web. I use Windows in my music studio and for video editing and I’m very happy with the software I’m using. I’m also extremely comfortable with it.

When I was in IT I used Linux all the time for servers though and had no complaints there.

I only like original Star Trek. I hated TNG and all the off-shoot shows.

It was about 10 years in the making because it also involved opening an arcade as a way to make money. I had to find all those machines, learn to fix them, and get the arcade up and running as well.

It was risky, but I managed to pull it off.

Salsa. And you don’t even need to cook anything.

Chop up tomatoes, sweet onion, a bit of fresh pressed garlic, lime. That’s the base. Then just add whatever else. Peppers, spring onions, cilantro (which I personally don’t add because it tastes like soap to me), parsley. Then to taste add a bit of salt, dash of hot sauce. A pinch of sugar can bring things out depending on the tomatoes.

Adding a bit of sour cream and/or avocado right before you eat it gives it an interesting twist.

You can keep it in a mason jar in the fridge for about a week. Probably longer but it never lasts more than a day or two in my house.
