And That's One Giant Step . . . . BACK

What could be a more fitting way to commemorate INTERNATIONAL MOON DAY than to have NASA CANCEL yet another Moon mission??? NASA cancels $450 million VIPER moon rover due to budget concerns Yeah. Okay. This one is only ANOTHER worthless "scientific" expedition to that COMPLETELY MYSTERIOUS AND UNEXPLORED silvery globe in the night sky by yet ANOTHER of their OVER-PRICED POS WINDUP TOYZ and NOT their DEI-onauts, in a feeble attempt to "Keep Up With The ChiComs", . . . . . but "Cancelled Due To Being > OVER BUDGET <"????? NASA??? . . . REALLY?????? We ARE talking NASA the world's Biggest Money-Pit here, right??? . . . . I mean, they've ONLY already spent $450 MILLION on this boondoggle SO FAR, so what's the big deal??? . . . . I reckon the "Cost Overruns" of all of those mandatory DEI Classes must have finally really hit home!!! . . . Or the SwampRat Grifters get better kickbacks funding Ukraine!!! WHAT A FREAKING JOKE!!!! LOL Speaking of JOKES IN SPAAAAAAACE!!! It looks like Komrade Musky WON'T be riding to the rescue of those Boeing DEI-onauts who got themselves stranded on the ISS when THEIR DEI CONSTRUCTED POS broke down up there, any time too soon. --- Yeah. Remember THEM??? They're STILL THERE!!! Fixing Boeing's leaky Starliner — and returning NASA's stranded astronauts to Earth — is much harder than it sounds ROCKET SCIENCE! Who'd a thunk it??? . . . . Maybe, Trump can get them a ride on another Soviet Taxi??? Or will he really shake things up and go asking the ChiComs or EuroComs this time around??? THAT should "only" cost us a few Mega-Mega-Gazillion$$$!!! Reckon Komrade Musky might be a bit too busy moving from Hellifornia to Texas to be closer yet to all of that Quality Newly Imported Cheap Labor to bother FIXING even his POSs. SpaceX Falcon 9 grounded after second stage failure on Starlink mission Sorta "FUNNY" how the FAA & NASA BureauWeenies GROUNDED Musky's UNMANNED Toyz as soon as they developed a "minor" glitch, but still hustled that MANNED Boeing POS up into space even though they KNEW that it had some MAJOR ISSUES!!! . . . . I wonder if Musky "donating" MILLION$$$ to Trump's Campaign had anything to do with NASA's "Safety Conscious Decisions"??? . . . Or was THAT the real reason behind his "Sudden" change of heart towards Trump???? LOL!!! Yepper! It sure won't be long at this rate before we see the First Men On MARS!!!! . . . . They just sure as heck WON'T BE Americans!!!!! Just BTW --- Last night I watched one of those Giant Robot movies ( Transformers Dark of the Moon ) (Yeah. I don't know WHY! LOL) But I got a GOOD LAUGH when the Human Villian and Bad Robot Collaborator pronounced that HE and his MegaCorp kept us from returning to the Moon by simply MAKING IT TOO EXPENSIVE!!! (And here I thought that it was either those Little Green Men or those Darn Space Nazis!!! Silly ME!!! LOL) I can't help but wonder > IF < any FUTURE SF/F flicks will feature the Bad Guys using DEI as the major deterrent???? LOL . . . . . <SIGH!!!> ---------------------------------------------- Keep Er FUN! & WEIRDZ!!! Dan G

canceling
We canceled Amazon because it seemed like everytime we wanted to watch a movie they said they have they wanted us to rent it or buy it! It was like we were paying them to sell other people's movies to us. So we came back to Netflix again. For us, Netflix seems to be the best but I am NOT in love with them. I have never had any trouble canceling a subscription to any of the streaming services, whether is was a standard month by month thing or we were just trying them out. We have done a couple small places along with Amazon, Hulu,HBO and Netflix. We have found the RUKU works good for us, only thing is I really haven't taken the time to see what all is available on it as usually we find something to watch pretty easy. It seems like the "apps" for instance History Channel for free does have advertisements on it but they are few and far between and short at least so far. We had a BIG place to get DVD's just about a 1/4 mile from us, we used them a lot. We never ordered them through the mail. Also had one of those "Red Box" rental machines about 1/2 mile from us but I never used that. We LIVE for miniseries! LOL We have seen some damn good ones on Netflix, still got some to go that I know of. I never watch that political shit, it's all crap to me no matter who it is. I'll vote for Trump but I'm not going to listen to his BS either and that goes for the rest of them. Ron

I would much rather watch a movie than the garbage they put on TV but that is why we pay for NETFLIX ... I' m not wasting my time with their woke and stuid ass commercials. I LOVED Midway!!!!!!! One of my all time favorites! I bet they would love to get rid of that picture since the best they can do is Biden falling down or playing space Kadet. LOL Ron

YouTube Movie Releases
Just a HEADS UP if you happen to be DESPERATELY looking for something to watch. = One of the great things about whenever the DemoCommies need a MAJOR DISTRACTION is that the OFFICIAL BoobTube Movie & TV Channel will release a bunch of GOOD OLD and Newer movies! . . . . Considering the Dim's current state, the BoobTube has REALLY GONE OVERBOARD this time around!!! (GEE! I "wonder" WHY??? LOL!!!) YouTube Movies & TV Last night I FINALLY got to rewatch my VERY FAVORITE and VERY FIRST Sci-Fi/ Horror movie from when I was only a little shite of around seven or eight!!! --AND-- the inspiration for the first ALIEN film!!! (That has led to another of those "Franchises That Will NOT Die!!!" = Another is due out soon! YIPES!!!) Though in this CLASSIC the crew has NO ISSUES with -- Women ONLY playing servants and love interests to the men, -- The crew using pistols, rifles, grenades and a FREAKING BAZOOKA (!!!) onboard to save their ship (They just don't build spaceships like THAT anymore! LOL) -- and everybody smokes all of the time! (Which is probably WHY YT never dared show it before! <sigh>) It! The Terror From Beyond Space I ALSO got to watch that TRUE WWII NAVY CLASSIC . . . MIDWAY I think the last (First???) time I actually got to see that was while I was still on the USS HULL!!! === GREAT FLICK!!!!!!!! Tonight, I think that I'll be REwatching either SF/F-Horror = A SOUND OF THUNDER That JOHN WAYNE Western CLASSIC = TRUE GRIT Or . . . . . something with a bit of Comedy = SHANGHI KNIGHTS I reckon that it all depends on HOW DAMN MANY commercials I can stomach!!! YEAH! the "Price Of Admission" is the TONS of FREAKING COMMERCIALS they run every few darn minutes!!!! = In OUR CASE, that means having to sit through REPEATED DAMNED DemoCommie Fester Tester PROPOGANDA campaign adds throughout the whole flick at each and every break!!! === If I wasn't going to "vote" for that PIG before, I sure as all heck would NEVER "vote" for him NOW!!!! (They just NEVER LEARN when TOO DAMN MUCH is actually a BAD DAMN THING!!! === DEMOCOMMIES!!!!!!!!) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Just BTW --- Have you heard that the DemoCommies are "Upset" and are demanding that the NOW ICONIC "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!" Trump image get pulled from ALL SOURCES??? . . . . Yeah, it seems that they believe it "MIGHT" be "Helping His Campaign TOO MUCH"!!!!!!! LOL!!! >>> POOR BUGGERS!!!! >>> LOL ---------------------------------------------- Keep Er FUN! & WEIRDZ!!! Dan G

R/C
2
One can buy an R/C American Halftrack with a quad .50 in the back. The gun turns, elevates and shoots (noise only). It is driven by the tracks but the front wheels do work with it. Not a huge price, last I knew about $175 ... and yes, I DID own one. Very unhappy about both how it handled and the speed so I sold it. I have kicked around the idea of buying another one and going at it to see if I could "adjust" the speed one way or another. Since I only collect German WW2 R/C it would get treated/detailed as a captured piece of equipment. After spending most of my life riding bikes I can take one look at those single track machines and know I wouldn't care for either one. I finished (for now) the trailer for the tank hauler, I will start on the HT conversion of adding a 3 ton crane on the rear deck tomorrow. Ron

Just a quick note tonight, got a hell of a storm going on and I want to shut the computer off. Rear bogie is pretty much done now, there are decals along with a tiny bit of detail painting I need to do before it is ready for final camo and weathering. Attached a couple pics of it. I'll be working on the trailer tomorrow. Ron

Eggheads Hunting Selenites
3
Scientists discover underground cave on the moon that could shelter astronauts on future trips to space And they don't bother to stop for ONE SECOND to ponder just WHAT ELSE those lava tubes might shelter??? . . . . Or DO THEY????? I reckon that nobody is supposed to remember our Apollo 11 astronauts > WHO LANDED RIGHT BY THERE!!! < reporting how they were BEING WATCHED by . . . . "SOMETHING" (certainly NOT HUMAN) while they were farting around up there???? But just leave it to the Eggheads to want to go poking sticks into dark places!!! (Especially, if THEY can remain all safe and snug back home!!! Right???) What's next??? The Eggheads want the new breed of DEI-onauts to bring back a few pets for "scientific" study??? >>>>>>>>>> You want Alien massacres??? --- THIS is how you get FREAKING ALIEN MASSACRES!!! <<<<<<<<< WHY DOESN'T ANYBODY EVER ACTUALLY BOTHER TO READ SCI-FI TRAINING MANUALS?????????? ---------------------------------------------- Keep Er FUN! & WEIRDZ!!!

video
I just saw the video for the first time that was taken by cell phone of the shooter on the move at the building. Not sure I would ever believe he was involved in a covert action but I DO DEFINITELY believe the Secret Service needs to be gutted and rebuilt. It is as worthless as tits on a bore hog. That building was a TRUE threat and SOMEONE(s) did nothing about it. As far as I am concerned, the cop that SHOULD have shot the dude is a chicken shit SOB covering his ass and has no business being a cop and should be fired. A couple shots of the HT and both bogies, they are as done as I can get them for now. Ron

Do you think China would try to make a "lets get them" deal with Russia and go to war or is the chance that Russia would spill the beans looking for their own advancement too much of a risk? Chew on that for the day. :-) LOL Ron

It seems like the Germans did that with everything, look at all the different projects they were working on. They definitely should have focused more on what they knew worked and less on that "wonder" weapon! I was worried about the tracks but it took me less than one hour to assemble both sides, I let them dry for 4 hours and then painted them and they are as of this minute ready for me to paint the rubber pads. It'll probably take me longer to do that then everything else!! BTW - BNA Models in Australia had a 1/16 Panzer 1 on sale for $20 (US) ... It Costs more for shipping ($25) than the tank but I have one coming and my intention is to do something S/F with it. I've not seen that particular guy but there are tons of video's where the painting is done with nothing but rattle cans and there are simply AMAZING results!!!!! There was a guy that was doing space/planet pictures and I can't begin to even describe how GREAT they were. I wished now I would have bookmarked him. Ron

charge it
5
The very first article I ever read about problems with or around chargers was from England. Basically it said the same thing you have. I also did read an article just in the last couple weeks about charging cables being stolen from the chargers. As for robberies or anything else, I have not seen a single article about that. No doubt in my mind It HAS happened ... and if not yet it is only a matter of time. The only "public" charging stations I know of are one that sits right next to one of the busiest streets in town, it's "daylight" there 24/7 and the other one is in the parking lot of the local Jr College. There is ONE at the Honda/Mazda dealer too - I forgot about that, it is right out front of their showroom floor. I have NEVER seen a car there and I go past there almost every time I leave my house! There was an article in the Detroit paper today about Consumers Power is going to be installing 1,800 chargers across THE WHOLE STATE (big whoopie). They stated the increased demand for them and the BIG SALES (BS) of EV's in the state. All a TOTAL LIE. WERE paying for them and the auto makers have ALL scaled BACK the building of EV's FOR A LACK OF SALES. But then that paper is a "liberal" piece of bird cage rug. LOL But just in case your interested, Ford has now said ANY of their dealers can sell EV's - they do NOT have to spend the $300,000 on special equipment to service them OR hire a specialist to service them!!!!!!! That's right, go buy a NEW EV from a damn dealer that CAN'T SERVICE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF?????????????????????????????? Ron

JUNGLE CRUISE
2
I don't know HOW some of these guys are getting away with it, but lately there have been a WHOLE LOT of relatively new movies popping up on the BoobTube. = I'm guessing that the MegaRat is letting them slip by for a day or two, or even a week or two to help distract from Creepy Joe & Jill's current "troubles". Most are those Spandex Super-Dude CGI Cartoon flicks/series (Spiderman, X-Men, Avengers, etc.) but some are also those Pirates of the Carribean flicks and the like. (Yeah. I know. Those are "CGI Cartoon flicks" as well, but . . . well, screw it. I just LIKE them WAY BETTER!!! LOL) Last night I watched a pretty good one, JUNGLE CRUISE. --- For some reason that I can't figure out, when it came out folks bagged on it pretty hard. But, IMO, it was right there along with the type of "Safe" Disney WEIRD FANTASY Escapist Adventure fare as all of those PotC flicks. So, if you liked those, you'll probably also enjoy this one! Just don't wait too long to watch it!!!!!!!!! The MegaRat & BoobTube don't permit them to hang on for very long!!!!!!!!!! >> BUT!!! << I have seen them pop right back up again a few days to weeks later either on the same channel or another, so don't give up all hope if you missed it the first time through! ---------------------------------------------- Keep Er FUN! & WEIRDZ!!!

tank transport/tiger
2
Just letting you know what I am working on, not great work but acceptable for now ... I haven't posted any upgrade because I was having trouble with my camera. It seems to be fixed now so I will try to do better. First pic is of a Late War Tiger, one of the set of 3 that Takom put out. The plastic tracks are garbage as usual, I went with a set of metal tracks. I am also building one of the Tamiya Tank Transporters ... not really sure I like the individual kit tracks yet but really have no options. So we will see how they turn out. Ron

EV Crime
Yeah, I know. EVs are MAJOR CRIME all on their very own, but something started tickling the back of my brain the other evening while I was filling up my daughter's borrowed Soccer Mom Van. = What Is The Crime Rate And Types Of Crimes Committed At EV Charging Stations????? Every GAS Station I can go to in or out of town is well lit and usually busy enough that I can feel safe enough (or even have my Wife when she was still driving and REMEMBERED!!!) to stop and fill up at any time of day or night. There is one that I avoid due to the number of derelict prairie niggers and bums who hang out there 24/7 (Unless the cops have run them all off because some political big shot is visiting town!). But even that one is well lit, has CCTV cameras, cops doing occasional drive-bys, GOOD small-town neighbors and is always attended by one or two cashiers. So, WAY BETTER than any Big City station featured so often these days on the BoobTube "news". As I was standing there waiting for Biden & Co to finish sucking the last few bucks out of my pocket, I started thinking on all of those EV Charging Stations that I had ever run across in town or while I was out still driving truck. == I couldn't recall a single one that wasn't stuck out on the DARK far side of some parking-lot, hidden away BEHIND some building, or just generally stuck in some VERY LESS than "ideal" sketchy location. === MOST CERTAINLY NOT someplace that even I ARMED would care to be stuck for an hour or two TRAPPED just sitting and waiting for a charge!!! NO FREAKING WONDER than that so many of these stations have their cables stolen in the dead of night! Heck, I could snag a few even during the full light of day!!! === If some Punk has enough time to steal a cable, he sure as heck has enough time to stick a gun in your face, rob you blind, steal your EV Toy(???), and/or RAPE any female!!!!!!!! And THAT is just > AT < the charging station itself! It doesn't include any walks in the dark to and from there if you decide to go grab a Latte instead of just sitting it out in your car. Being a surely obvious RICH EV Owner, you might as well have a neon sign pointing to you saying, "PLEASE ROB ME!!!" Considering the ever-growing crime rates of most every city around, and most especially any Blue ShiteHoles, I got started wondering what the stats for THIS particular brand of logically derived at "EV Purchasing Discouragement" might look like??????? None too surprising === I couldn't find SQUAT!!! --- Ya think that there just MIGHT be a bit of a COVERUP here???????? I did find ONE > OLD < (2021) article written by an IDIOT (Obviously a BIMBO since he/she/it test drives EVs for a living! LOL) that at least somewhat addressed the issue of public charging stations safety. The biggest barrier to electric cars isn't tech — it's making public chargers feel safer and more accessible After THAT OVERLY LONG-WINDED pile of pure BULLSHITE EV PROPAGANDA the final conclusion the IDIOT comes to is . . . . . > " For EV owners who took — or plan to take — the plunge early, it just means buckling down and dealing with the growing pains until the rest of the world finally catches up. " < In Other Words === Suck It Up Buttercup! Getting Robbed, Raped or KILLED is just all part of the "Joy" of owning a POS EV TOY!!!! Since I got WAY TOO BORED to read that entire POS article, I'm not sure if that "writer" covered this OTHER "interesting" side note to those EV Charging Stations and just how they can affect even those of us smart enough to NEVER want one of the damn things!!! === TYPICAL DemoCommie KRAP! Always freely sharing THE SUCK of their "Brilliant Ideas" with EVERYONE!!! EV Charger Hacking Poses a ‘Catastrophic’ Risk ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >>>>> MORE POS EV "FUN"!!! <<<<<< +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Arizona woman trapped in Tesla after battery dies Toddler trapped inside Tesla after car battery dies with doors locked +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >>>>>> JUST FOR SOME ACTUAL (AT THE EXPENCE OF POS EVs) FUN!!! <<<<<<< +++++++++++++++++++++++++++

*WARNING* --- Politics --- WTF???
2
I REALLY DO NOT understand the EuroTrash version of "DeMOCKracy" in their national politics but considering how much folks HERE love to imitate them, this latest string of "Upsets" sure has me wondering just what > WE < can hope to expect come November. Farage Party Would Have Won 94 Seats Under Proportional Voting System French Elections: Populist Le Pen Party Won Most Votes But Awarded Third Most Seats French Communist-Socialist Bloc Victorious After Making Deal With Macron to Stop Populist Le Pen Party > " French Far-Left Nominates Antifa Activist on National Security Watch List For Snap Election " < Should we then be very "Surprised" then that THIS is the results??? Leftist Radicals Riot in France Despite Victory for Far-Left in Snap Elections What gets me is that BOTH of these Right-Wing groups were running on near identical platforms. = Out with the Lefty Communist Uniparty Lunacy. Back to Nationalistic BASIC COMMON SENCE. (Almost identical to Trump!) BOTH received the MAJORITY of "votes". And yet BOTH received ONLY A TOKEN of the Seats. . . . . --AND-- BOTH party's leaders are HAPPY with that!!!! = WTF?????? NOW BOTH FAR-LEFT groups in the UK and France have kicked their COMMUNIST takeovers into VERY HIGH GEAR. Team of Dolts: Meet Keir Starmer’s Trump-Hating, Anti-Brexit Cabinet ---- And WE thought that Poopy's Handlers were BAD??? = "Hold My Guinness!!!" & "Hold My Rose!!!" In Germany, the "Alternative" Conservative Right-Wing AfD party is VERY popular. But I've gotta wonder if they'll fare much better in their elections. Australia has been running the very same Leftist Krap since COVID days. With Canada leading the way down the Commie Sewer for decades. Yeah, I know. -- "It's not who "votes". It's WHO COUNTS the "votes." --AND-- it sure helps when they have all DISARMED their citizens. . . . . But Holy Fracking KRAP!!!! With this as a foreshadowing of what might come HERE in November . . . . things are going to get REALLY SHITTY far faster than I ever expected!!! They won't need to make a martyr out of Trump. Not when the WEF/ UN/ "Illuminati" have got things so sewn up EVERYWHERE!!! Well, one "good thing", I reckon we needn't worry anymore about those CCP ChiComs or Soviet Commies anymore!!! Hey, KOMRADE??? Patton WAS RIGHT!!! === "We defeated the WRONG ENEMY." >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> COME ON SPACE ROCKS!!! <<<<<<<<<<<<< ---------------------------------------------- Keep Er FUN! & WEIRDZ!!!
