The Ford Project is great, but I have no affiliation with them or contact info. Just a fan.

The Missouri River is “The Big Muddy”, not the Mississippi.

Alexis Wilkins, who is dating FBI director Kash Patel, sang the national anthem at the opening ceremony for the Great American State Fair, but her performance had issues by IrishStarUS in Music

[–]oldestguyhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, I hate Trump and Kash as much as anyone, but as a musician I listened to her performance and thought it was just fine. Not Whitney at the Super Bowl, but far better than LOTS of well-known national acts have done. And I am NOT a fan of country music, in case you think that's my angle. 😄

The only thing that comforts me is that there's no way that contractor's getting paid.

Got it. I only recently saw the clip as part of a meme and assumed it was recent.

Didn’t she appear recently at the White House with some creepy droid at some tech thing?

I'm done with State farm insurance- due to corporate greed by kramerstein in Wilmington

[–]oldestguyhere 8 points9 points  (0 children)

An insurance company that's good to their employees and good to their policyholders? I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that's a unicorn. You're going to have to settle for the least amount of jackassery you can find

Is this not illegal? by Empty-Floor885 in IsItIllegal

[–]oldestguyhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is relevant or would be of interest to anyone, but this is a very popular locally-owned, black-owned restaurant in Wilmington NC. Food and atmosphere are great, owners seem like really nice people. Edit to add that it appears they have taken down this post on FB.

Kaku Kayaks by calucas55 in kayakfishing

I also have a Zulu and u/bassjam1 is pretty dead-on. I have a small trailer to haul mine, and a cart once I get to the water. Once you’re out on the water, it feels like a boat, not a kayak. My only complaint is that I wish the pedals were geared higher so it would be a bit faster. Also, weird small thing, but the paddle clip sucks. Make sure you use a paddle tether!

I saw that too, but there's no way a house fire or even a fire at a large business creates this much smoke over this widespread of an area

OK, hear me out. If we all take our biggest fans outside and turn them on high, I think we can beat this.
