Punxsutawney Phil, Pennsylvania's resident rodent, did NOT see his shadow yesterday, therefore it is said to be a sign of 6 MORE WEEKS OF WINTER! Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!
I googled it
did Bill de Blasio drop a groundhog?
In 2009, Chuck bit then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg and was secretly replaced by his granddaughter, Charlotte, for the 2014 ceremony. Unfortunately, then-Mayor Bill de Blasio dropped Charlotte on the ground, and the groundhog died several days later.
No, I hadn't heard of this. I didn't know there was an overpowered HIV variant here.
I found an article about it in Nature.

It sounds like it's under control now, but it shows the dangers of viruses. If left to spread, they can mutate to a form that humanity cannot overcome. Imagine a world where HIV could be transmitted in tiny droplets of saliva, through breathing.
They are working on an mRNA HIV vaccine. If they succeed, I hope it doesn't get the same political propaganda treatment as the Covid vaccines, because it would be 'nice' if the world gets rid of HIV.
Currently, the temperature is 40 degrees in Southeast Michigan. The temperature went up to 43 degrees today and the prices at Speedway went up, too. Gas went from $2.949 to $3.359 per gallon, $0.41 fricking cents.
$2.09 this morning in Oz for premium (98 octane) fuel. The government won't kiss me or take me out to dinner before they fuck me. What ever happened to chivalry
Oil closed at 88.15 dollars a barrel today.Highest it has been in a long time.
2.55 a gallon wholesale. So 3.15 a gallon, 60 cent difference. once taxes are took out,the rest is profit.
Opec has alot to answer for. And as for cutting back supplies it's bullshit. Seems to me They are more powerful than the NRA. Oil the world's most precious economy 😆
The price of oil is rising because the world’s economy is picking up and the trouble in Russia and Ukraine. I live in Alberta Canada where most of Canada‘s oil comes from. Every dollar oil goes up benefits our economy by $400 million so we’re OK with this. Of course when the price drops it has the opposite effect which can be devastating.
Gas is about $1.30 a litre in Alberta but Vancouver is about $1.65.
I guess I've had a BIG misconception about Texas..... I always thought Texas dodged snow and frigid temperatures. A big eye opener, Texas' freezing weather and power outage back in February, 2021 AND from time-to-time you will post pictures of the snowfall at your house. Heck, I didn’t think you folks needed to put snow shoes on your horses in order to ride them during December, January, February.... . Yep, that's another one of my misconceptions about Texas. Here's another, every man an woman wear cowboy boots, tight jeans, the men wear 10 gallon hats that they tip to women when they're saying; "Howdy, ma'am!"
Since I'm only familiar with Goggle's description that Dick Tracy wore a yellow snap-brim fedora and since you are not shy, please model your hat and post a picture.
Tuesday it was 43 degrees in my town and it remained somewhat warm through to Wednesday morning. Yep, there was a gentle rain Tuesday into Wednesday then BOOM!, here comes the cooler temperature followed by snow. All that wet underneath froze and is now a sheet of ice and my mailbox is frozen close. Drove up to the post office in town and will have them hold my mail until February 14 or until the darn thing defrosts and I can open it once again!
A palmetto bug is a fancy-dancy name for a cockroach. These bastards are HUGE, inches long!
A number of years ago, there was a roach problem where I worked. Exterminators identified the roaches as being the German cockroach, probably something that is considered a more common strain here. The German cockroach is brown and 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch long but the palmetto bug is 2 to 3 inches long, a BIG DIFFERENCE. When one of those things jump out of the trees at you, you know you've been "hit".
Thanks yeah we have them in Pennsylvania I heard the ones down in the south are that big you can put a saddle on them and ride them around the neighborhood
Yes, we kill them because there over populating, as the Burmese python that's eating all the dear, birds and alligators.--------------------------------------- added after 90 secondsI shoot and kill them because they dig deep holes under my pool to stay cool in the summer
Apparently, these iguanas are not little things, either. The news report says some weigh as much as 20lbs. Damn! I wouldn't want one of those things falling out of a tree and hitting me on the head, it would knock me out after I pissed myself!
They also said that some people are warming them up out of sympathy and then setting them free again. It is illegal to set them free so these people are actually breaking the law.
They sell them in Canada too but if I tire of mine in let it outside it will die in the winter but in Florida they live and breed. Winter does have its benefits!
According to that news report, it seems like the cool temperatures only stun the darn things and that they can and will come back to life, of course that probably means if it is within a reasonable amount of time.
looks like the city workers would ride around in trucks and pick them up when they are stunned and carry them off to the everglades or something instead of leaving them laying around to reproduce?
Are they edible and do they taste like chicken can i barbecue them on my grill I’ve had rattle snake before they are quite tasty the Washington foundation in Pennsylvania has a Rocky Mountain oyster roast every year and they are quite tasty to nothing like breaded bulls nuts 🥜 --------------------------------------- added after 91 seconds
Why is it any weird meat always taste like CHICKEN? I remember when I was a little kid,my dad brought home a Bear steak. my mom cooked that thing and that was the God awfulest meat I have ever put in my mouth.
At the risk of sounding racist it’s because we are brainwashed to thinking every meat taste like fried chicken in the near future we will think all fruits taste like water Mellon ✊🏿
Who the fuck are you to tell anyone here to shut up, you odious lack-wit?
If you've got nothing of value to contribute (which you never actually seem to have), then shut your festering pie-hole like a good little bigoted nimrod.

2.

"the office was created ad hominem for Fenton"
I do, so I also know that--if you are applying it to my comment above--you obviously do not know the meaning of 'Ad hominem'.
In demanding that bella! 'shut up' (something which you have no authority to do), you were behaving like an odious lack-wit.
I was merely doing you the profound favor of pointing that out. Don't look upon my remarks as an attack--they are simply a statement of fact...
If, however, you were referring to your initial attack on bella! ('Oh shut up, you race baiter!'), then you are using the phrase correctly.
Ball is in your court, douche-nozzle.
I don't dislike someone because of their color, ethnicity, social standing, etc. I even try to be opened minded and give a chance to rude folks and mean people, too.
There's no need for you to be disrespectful to me and I will do likewise with regard to you.
