Been there done that. i caught this one just in time, thank goodness too, cuz haven't
had spaghetti for too long. Love it, and feel i need some energy these days too.
Still don't see them going to an immunity decision for Trump.
Earlier you said you burned something by forgetting it was on. I just burned the best bolognaise sauce in Australia, lol,
by forgetting it was on. Thank goodness i caught it before the burn bits sticking to the bottom of the pot got too thick.
rooster, It isn't anyone i've seen "chanting for the Jews to be wiped out in Israel." Though there are most probably trouble makers and anti-Jew right wingers (your guys) infiltrating demonstrations which are legitimately protesting barbarous and cruel over-reaction by Israeli far-right (your guys again) racists. If someone calls out kill the Jews you have no idea if he/she/it is an agent provocateur, or not.
janice certainly is not doing what you said to her. Can't you make your posts look like
you are better informed. All most all of your posts do is make you look more ignorant.
And back off from the stupid personal attacks, or you'll be getting another vacation soon.
There is no law that says you can never be positive about anything. Try it, Try posting some positive stuff. About anything.
After starting both i decided to watch The Pacific first, closer to home. Am mid ep 6/10. It's super.

They are harmless to humans cuz they can't inject us. I'll chat with mine about
that. Have just decided to call him Legs. About as creative as dirty socks, eh.
Didn't know, thanks for the mention.
Damn, had him in the team until a late change. Pure luck.
oops, -2 Merritt in vs -6 Davis benched. Let's just all agree it's a lucky draw. No system works every time.
I think Yahoo has leaned right for a few years. I remember feeling a distinct
shift from more neutral, some time less than six years ago, i think.
He sure didn't win the substantive truth score, still in the general public perception
the shithead won overall. And as far as debates go, i think that's what's important.
LOL I reckon your spider has to be either a Wolf spider or a Huntsman. And i'll bet you wouldn't have picked big Daddy LL as the one considered most venomous, either. Sure surprised me. Though i've always liked them, the one in my bathroom has more respect now.
Hard to pin down, so many spiders of a species look different. It looks like a jumping spider,

as the most venomous spider. One last in support of my saying spiders are our friends, just get a bad rap:
Top spider myths
A myth for each leg: fearsome funnel-webs, deadly Daddy Long-legs and swallowing spiders in your sleep.
Often misunderstood, spiders are the subject of many popular myths.
Spiders are a truly diverse group, with more than 40,000 described species in the world—and those are just the ones we know about.
But they have a bad reputation, especially venomous Australian species like the Sydney Funnel-web and Redback Spider.
Museums Victoria receives hundreds of questions about spiders every year: here are some of the more persistent myths.
1 Spiders are insects
[...]
Visual hunters, like this jumping spider on the left, tend to have larger eyes; web-builders, like this orb-weaver, have smaller eyes.
2 All spiders are aggressive
[...]
A female Alpine Funnel-web (Hadronyche alpina) rearing back. Note the beads of venom on the tips of her fangs.
[...]
4 Daddy Long-legs is the world’s most venomous
spider but its fangs are too short to pierce human skin
[...]
7 The only good spider is a dead spider
For many of us the first reaction to a spider is fear, and often involves reaching for a can of spray or a shoe.
The reality is that a world without spiders would be a very different place.
An estimated 25 million tonnes of spiders populate the planet, and they eat between 400 and 800 million tonnes of invertebrates a year—insects that could otherwise pose a threat to us or our food sources.
Spiders themselves are also food for thousands of the world’s bird and mammal species.
Let’s keep them around, shall we?

6-8 would guess before 10. The measurement deal is why Daddy Long
Legs are seen as big spiders, obviously they have small bodies.
Agree, he would, just the other leaders wouldn't be conned as much as so many viewers are.
He wouldn't get as much of a free pass on so many of his lies. He wouldn't gain the effect.
rooster, You don't have to go to the stupid lengths that some of your side's
talking points go to. Your ignorant comment is both baseless and senseless.
Yeah, after this first bit am gonna search to see how they measure spider size. Legs have to be in on it. First though, who wants a pet you can't cuddle -
1. Cannot be handled
Though tarantulas are not fatally venomous, physicians from the University of Florida Health note that tarantula bites can cause irritated, itchy, painful bumps, which could last for weeks. When threatened, they may also retaliate by rubbing their hind legs across their body and flicking “thousands of tiny hairs toward the threat.” It is these sharp hairs that can pierce human skin and cause painful symptoms. Fortunately, tarantula venom is not considered to be dangerous to humans, but it’s still best not to handle tarantulas unless absolutely necessary..

Ok .. size -- yep, as figured they are spread out then measured .. https://fearnottarantulas.com/pages/how-we-measure-spiders
Because members don't have to be there.
LOL Because of a few bad hombres spiders get a bad rap. Give me a good spider web to catch mosquitoes any day.
Excellent point, i'll bet many, if not most, have left that out of their thinking. The stutter would be in his mind and no wonder with the strange setting and the fact he hadn't debated for four years, and the fact he was trying to pick detail to deal with the generalized lies Trump was spewing, no wonder he got himself frazzled. He would never be like that sitting with world leaders. And Trump couldn't get away with lying so much to world leaders either.
Of course Trump would look more settled, he didn't care at all what he was saying. It's
easy to be settled if you don't care at all about the accuracy of what you are saying.
When Trump repeated the lie about migrants being crooks, rapists and murderers and Biden tried to talk about a specific case, as Swalwell put it so well, Joe should have just looked at him and said, 'You are lying again. You know research says that refugees as a group commit less crime than others.'
LOL Her enthusiastic fervor was what made me laugh, so liked her. The one you posted i think back then was seen as a Huntsman, not sure. Was surprised to hear from that oe last, there are some 250 different Huntsman. Think she said. I always thought the thickest and furriest was the tarantula. Seems the Huntsman is considered the biggest (is it the legs), but the picture i have in my mind as the sturdiest, the thickest and furriest is a tarantula. Gotta solve the mystery, so search - the thickest, sturdiest, hairiest, fuzziest spider in australia - https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=the+thickest%2C+sturdiest%2C++hairiest%2C+fuzziest+spider+in+australia+is+...
Ok, the photo here looks like what you are talking about, and what i remembered as a tarantula, now will read to see what it is.

The hairy spider

Sensing the world with hairs and pits
All spiders are hairy - like us. Spider hairs are part of the hard outer cuticle (the spider's 'skin'). Unlike us, spiders use their hairs (which are often greatly modified) to perform an amazing variety of tasks - for sensing their world, in courtship displays, for moving around, and in defence and prey capture.
Sight is our most important sense. However, most spiders have very poor eyesight and many are active during the dark night hours. With a few notable exceptions, their sense of the world is obtained through specialised sensory hairs and pit-like sense organs in the cuticle. These hair and pit sensillae are especially associated with the spider's limbs and mouthparts. Connected at their bases to sensory nerves, they provide spiders with the sensory experience and feedback needed to survive and function in their world.
Hinged, touch-sensitive hairs on the legs help the spider to move freely about its terrain and are important in interactions ranging from mating to prey capture. Chemically sensitive, hollow-tipped hairs found at the ends of the limbs and on the mouthparts are the spider's tasting organs - those on the pedipalps are used to sense the chemicals associated with mate recognition.
Another stimulus to which spiders are incredibly sensitive is vibration. Vibrations transmitted through air, substrate surfaces and even water can be sensed by spiders.
Air vibrations and currents are detected by slender, vertical hairs called trichobothria, usually found on the upper surface of the three outermost limb segments. These hairs are easily deflected and their 'ball and socket' basal hinge allows them to respond to air movements coming from any direction. This high sensitivity to air-borne vibrations can alert the spider to the wing beats of an approaching moth or fly, or the presence of a wasp predator.
Substrate vibrations, induced in web, leaf , ground or water surfaces by nearby disturbances (such as prey, mate or predator movement), cause slight movements in a waiting spider's limbs. These movements can be directionally sensed by tiny 'strain gauges' in the cuticle called slit organs (or lyriform organs when several are grouped together, as at the tarsal-metatarsal joint) that react to any slight deformation of the cuticle. The sensitivity is such that spiders can readily distinguish prey movement vibrations from those of a courting male or the background noise of wind.
Slit organs are also somehow involved in the spider's ability to 'memorise' directions, for example, the return route to its burrow after a hunting trip. A number of tiny 'slit organs' placed around the bases of the silk spinning spigots on the spinnerets appear to be involved in the sensory monitoring of the movements of the spigots and the emission of silk during spinning, the control of which is still poorly understood.
Near the end of each limb is a tiny pit, dome or peg-like structure called the tarsal organ. They appear to function primarily as moisture and temperature detectors.
Internally placed joint receptors and external sensory hairs (usually short hairs adjacent to joint membranes or longer hairs that span joints) keep the spider informed of its limb positions (proprioception) during movement. This ensures that the spider moves in a coordinated way.

That's your spider, i hope.
Perhaps i should have included our favorite Huntsman .. umm, wasn't going to, but gee don't our thoughts
change faster sometimes than our typing is .. ok, committed now, so gotta look .. lol .. wait .. ok, lol, perfect ..
LOL Eyes started watering while keeping up with it, but, you're right, it is very interesting
and informative. Will revisit for another run tomorrow and be more informed because of it.
For convenience your https://www.facebook.com/reel/851075690386584 , which works.
Cheers .. off.
Lime Time, I get the name, perhaps it's the citrus that has you so acidic. At least in that one you have offered more than perhaps ever before. You are obviously a real 'success' oriented kind of guy, a Trump kind of guy, and not saying that's all bad, just your
"...and never knocked up any bitches."
(nothing important lost by lack of context) suggests you could also be much of the arrogant s.o.b in your attitude toward women, as others in that Trump world. No cool.
And your LOL " You guys can't ever comprehend this, I'd suppose." is as silly as anything else you have said. Seems you, as Trump, do have that 'look at me' problem.
We are not your enemy, but anything but that as your lies described us earlier .. coming .. ok, your ..
Well this board is a dying board, so I figured I've give you a few posts to hate on. It's about 5 or 6 schmucks here having a circle every day with each other besides for the random few like me that decide to stop by and challenge your teenie tiny nitwit brains.

Just do America a favor and read my reply again. Even perhaps come up with a reply to it. Or fucking apologize. No, Trump wouldn't either.
It's been so long since i've traveled, umm lol, and am dizzier than ever before, still it's in the mind so in the works. Cheers.
Shower Cap is a genius, am thinking i should shower more.

I like that as one of your more plain bits. Genius.
Højgaard in, Pendrith sits. Still hope he goes well, Eli. Don't wish it were any more in my hands. LOL GL to you too.
Joey jobs or Jobs Joey, whatever Swallwel said, "He's Back Folks!". Reenergized. Reborn. Go Joey!
Sure are! And so good to see them coming from a large Aussieland Muslim neighbor.
Hi Hugh... Before Bhatia was given his rd bonus 3, you had a four of kind 23, 23, 23, 23. I reckon that could be a first ever. A winner in most any straight draw hand. Anyway, am content to say, for a change, you're chasing a good score. Am T29/13394, with lol 26 others. My best ever Diehard position in the big league.
As too what you should do, too hard. We all know some fire two days others not. Too hard to reason it too much so do it some as you are and go with your gut. At least then you won't feel so much should haves...
GL to us all Day 3
Exactly. Thank you.
Exactly. Trump dished up a Gish Gallop salad of lies, and for once got Biden. For once.
Lotsa time, It's part of the project now.
You're right it didn't. Biden looked much stronger in Raleigh. He was really down, and it could just
more focus and more energize him. Let's hope it turns out to be a ripple more than a tidal wage.
I would like that. As i'll likely be there only for a day, another option could be perhaps you could join us
at my cousin's place. They have downsized since my last visit, don't know where in Seattle they are now.
Would be fun, and i like fun.
LOLOL conix, enjoys ancient news. In any honestly rational American mind, there would be no doubt who has
been the better president before, and who would be, a better president of America for the next four years.
That's solid 'higher minimum wage' Seattle talk.
Aside: I hope to be visiting one of my last remaining Seattle cousins within the next year.
in any honestly rational American mind, there would be no doubt who has been the better
president before, and who would be, a better president of America for the next four years.
