Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Mid-morning salutations, GN!

Had to leave early this morning to take CorporateToolK’s car to PMK’s shop and then to be emissions tested; did mine yesterday. (In GA, you have to go through that nonsense every year, but only in certain counties; what a crock.)

Now we’re permitted to pay Gwinnett Cty. some of their baksheesh so they can squander it.

Yay.

This upstanding resident of Toledo, OH -- Noel E. Dawson, Jr. -- is charged with chasing a relative with a hatchet; hard to believe.

Happy Friday, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning Fatwa!

I’m sure Gaia is happy to know that both you and the Lovely BrendaK have had your emissions certified.

Teh Younger is learning all about the differences in the way state goobermints operate. He bought a car in Florida about a year ago and has learned that in Florida you re-register your vehicle on your birthday, not on the original registration date. He’s also learned that you can’t register by mail, and you don’t go to your local DMV, you go someplace else. The latest twist is that the State of Florida will not accept our car insurance -- he has to get a policy through a company that does business in that state. It looks like we’re going to end up paying 50% more, for less coverage.

Don’t even ask him about Georgia and their revenue-enhancing speeding laws.

I see the Amish are at it again, this time in Stockholm.

Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Yup…them Amish are always driving their wagons into crowds in NE Ohio screaming “Yoders Rule!!!”.

======================

They go with birfday auto registrations here, too. They also used to collect an ad valorem tax based on a percentage of their reckoning of your car’s value every year. Now they collect it in a single lump when your purchase a new or used vehicle, which adds a lot to the price.

And it’s not a straight percentage, either; they use mysterious formulae to calculate the amount. As an example: If I were to purchase a used 2015 base model Subaru Outback from a dealer for $20K, the ad valorem would be another $1,564.

Because Fuck You, That’s Why.

Oh, lovely.

Starting to see #NoMoreJewishWars on Twitter.

Apparently, we wily, pernicious Jooos convinced manipulated Trump to light off those Tomahawk missiles last night. For Israel. And profits, of course.

Fear my spooky Jooo powers!!1!

Seriously, though, my impression has been that Israel would love to see no more Jewish wars, In fact, I think they’ve been trying to get others to agree to that for quite some time.

Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Hahahahahahahahahaaaa!

But seriously, folks… 👿

Good point, Sven. Why manufacture durable goods when you can manufacture commodities and have a steady market.

If you look at the top names in the Military-Industrial-Complex, what do you see? Teh Joooos!

John Moses Browning -- Joooo
Howard Hughes -- Jooo
Jack Northrop -- Jooo

I really really really hope that Neil Gorsuch is everything everybody has been saying he is.
