By raft and on foot, migrants cross Rio Grande from Mexico to Texas
EVENKEEL replied to Scott's topic in World News
Slow down, my parents and siblings were processed at Ellis Is and yes they were immigrants. What can't you comprehend? You're not stalking are you? -

"But that's not — it's not like somebody walks over," Jean-Pierre responded. She later said "It is not that simple. It’s not just that people are walking across the border." And that is how out of touch with reality the White House is. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-yet-visit-besieged-southern-border-white-house-caught-migrant-controversy -
Déja-vu. The Suez Canal is blocked again, this time it's an oil tanker!
EVENKEEL replied to Crossy's topic in World News
The ship will have a Pilot onboard giving course and speed recommendations. But, that doesn't relieve the Captain of being fully responsible. I'm sure there will alot of finger pointing till the investigation concludes. The bridge had a VDR (voice data recorder) to back up any claims. -
No major marijuana issues increasing after cannabis decriminalization

When I booked the tickets the seat selection was just added to the total flight price. The $200. maybe a bit more fee for exit row seat was BKK to SFO R/T both with Taipei layovers. It was a separate price for all 4 flight. Just booking regular economy seats ran like $100. per ticket for the R/T flight.

Anytime a ship is transiting in such a place the secondary steering system (after steering) is supposed to be manned ready to take steering control from the bridge if loss of steering occurs. -
I recently bought BKK-SFO on EVA with a 2 1/2 layover in Taipei. Cost was $900. which included seat selection. I'm traveling with a minor and couldn't get the exit seats for us both. Age limit is 15. But, the cost would have been an extra $200. each person R/T for exit aisle seats. I bought tickets on EVA website for end of Sept.

EVENKEEL replied to Scott's topic in World News
I think it's only fair the sanctuary cities get a taste of what the border cities are enduring. it's unrealistic to believe the US cities can absorb such a huge influx of migrants so quickly without our own citizens suffering. To include hospital care and schooling. We complain about low wages while we bring in 100's of thousands of migrants who will be competing with our own citizens for unskilled and semi skilled work. Homelessness is skyrocketing do to high rent, yet somehow we believe these migrants will magically join the work force and be self sufficient. -

So, you're equating the Potato Famine which killed a million people 170 yrs ago to what's happening at the border today. https://www.dailywire.com/news/migrants-from-106-countries-crossed-southern-border-in-del-rio-sector-in-2021 -

Oh, you mean immigrants like my parents who came through Ellis Island. These folks aren't immigrants. -

You stated these folks were good for the economy, so what exactly is the problem in NYC and WDC? Could it be their services are being overwhelmed? And those are sanctuary cities. They actually asked for help from National Guard which was declined. -

So, answer why NYC doesn't want all the "legal" south of the border peoples if as stated before that they are an economic boost to the economy. -

If it's such an economic boost having illegals, why is the NYC major so angry about the illegals being bused to his city. According to you there's zero impact of having cities flooded with illegals. -

4 yr old video. Seems like theirs coyote helpers staging smuggler routes. How do you know this water was for illegals and not left for drug smugglers. You don't. Maybe we should leave rental car and hotel reservations as well. -

"The Biden administration caused the surge, made the border less safe and is flagrantly violating the very federal laws they swore to uphold. The Biden administration is putting hard-working border patrol agents in impossible and untenable positions — risking their lives and safety, and I want to thank Chief Ortiz for testifying truthfully at his deposition," Moody said.

I can't be the only one who was riding a mini bike on country roads age 10 or 11. Had a 90cc Honda age 13. Was driving our farm truck about 5 km to work age 14. Bought my first car a 56 chevy at age 15 before I had a license, my own money from working. I get these parents letting their kids ride MB's at early age. But it's the forking cel phone pandemic that caused this carnage

Will the wall primer + color hide this mess?
EVENKEEL replied to FrederikKitten's topic in DIY Forum
I don't see a problem. Clean off grease and dirt, at least sweep it first. Get the good primer and paint it, probably take 2 coats of primer before main color. -

It is, but it isn't. I haven't lived full time in the states in 20 yrs. Guess I'm out of touch
