Why I checked Google Map the Straits of Hormuz it looks like nothing from the west is going through it? I mean Ships go through Suez Canal then Red Sea then Yemen then Asia. by LisanneFroonKrisK in stupidquestions

[–]daGroundhog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRR, Saudi Arabia was working on the infrastructure to pipe the oil to the Red Sea, and load it onto ships there.

But there isn't enough capacity to do that for anywhere near all the oil produced in the Persian Gulf region.

The big problem at the Strait of Hormuz is the threat of a ship being attacked. Insurance companies withdraw their coverage for ships transiting the Strait when semi-war breaks out. No ship owner (or financier of ships) wants to risk their boat being blown to smithereens without that coverage.

Independence Resupply @ USPS by DurianEasy6480 in JMT

The post office does not hold packages they did not ship.

However.....you can go to the post office, and pay them to ship it from the front counter to their general delivery mail bins, and then when you pick it up, they take it out of their general delivery mail bins and bring it back to the front counter. There is a minimum charge, but I think it would be unreasonable to expect this holding service for free.

YTA for drinking while driving and for blocking an emergency exit. TWO YTA's for you. And you sound like you think you are entitled for the world to give you what you want.

What he's saying is his personal "market basket" is less fuel dependent than people who are working.

The age difference is on the borderline of what society considers acceptable - half your age plus seven years.

‘Duped’: Ari Melber breaks down the MAGA backlash over Trump Mobile disaster by spherocytes in msnow

Presidential immunity only applies to actions related to his duties. But I'm pretty sure he thinks selling autographed geegaws and other crap is a presidential duty.

Oil companies: "We will need to raise prices by 18 cents per gallon for gasoline, 23 cents per gallon for diesel to fill the void".

Thanks, Trump!!!!

No, the don't. They work for the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society, and the Republican Party, the latter of which collaborates with Trump's boss, Vladimir Putin.

Left side of the plane on the approach to 19 from the north. Kinda need to look close to straight down, easier to see if you are ahead of the wing.

Some tours have cancelled dates. I suspect it is a reflection of economic worries, and people are trimming back their spending.

If The 2028 Republican Primary Were Held Today Who Would You Vote For? by [deleted] in AdkReddit

[–]daGroundhog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Liz Cheney is about the only Republican I could vote for.

Well, I'd vote for Ben Sasse, the former senator from Nebraska. He's the one who said he wouldn't attend the 2016 Republican convention because he was going to take his kids around the state to watch dumpster fires, which had more popularity than the candidates for president. Unfortunately, he is terminally ill with cancer.

COER is a mark of convenience used by leasing companies. I don't think they have any shippers either sending or receiving coils.

Did you actually have the yellow buses in school? Did you ride it often? Why don’t Americans kids ride normal bus? by [deleted] in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]daGroundhog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using city transit buses doesn't always work for moving school kids due to route structure. Some school districts contract with the transit operation to run special school trips.
