he did for progressive movement towards climate change, which would effect his fossil fuel investments, and Biden’s infrastructure plans which really were just investments in the economic revitalization for the middle class. Basically Manchin is an elitist grifter ok with sucking as much life and value out of society with as little investment or worry about others quality of life.

Found this in article. Apparently ESPN likes the Vikings offensive talent… a lot. With the Vikings keeping their offense intact and the addition of a healthy Irv Smith Jr. on the roster, they went from being ranked No. 5 last year to No. 4 in the upcoming season.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Nashville, so probably can’t be of much help. After we all had kids, we were more inclined to go to the Smokey Mountains, although we did take the kids once and stayed at the Opryland Hotel, which was fun. I only took one vacation without my daughter, we went to Hilton Head. Enjoyed not having the kids in the evenings, but missed them during the day, so never did it again. Besides, I worked way too many hours as a single parent, so wanted to be with her during free time.

Had some amazing food, and it was really nice to be able to have a long leisurely dinner (without squirmy kids). We went dancing several times (whole family were dancers) Also, we were in a great location where we could drink as much as we wanted and just walk back to our room.

We went to the beach almost every summer for vacation as well as camping and boating, lots of nice lakes here.

Last years play offs after the WC round was the most fun I’ve had watching Football in general since 2017.

That’s kind of where I have drifted. I have learned to follow other teams and stories within the NFL. Interesting ebbs and flows exist apart from the Vikings.

I’m glad the Vikings at least have a new coach, though. That makes them somewhat interesting again. The last two seasons felt extremely predictable.

Do you remember the game against Seattle where he completed 79% of his passes for 323 yards and 3 TD’s with a 128.4 passer rating? How about the game against the Packers where he threw for 3 TD’s and 128.4 passer rating? How about when he threw for a 122.4 passer rating with 244 yards and 3 TD’s against the Bengals? You never remember the good games… just the one bad game. You’re stuck.

You mean you forgot the 87 yards he had in our win over the bears practice squad? Um, that’s WHY we won. He also had 216 vs Pitt in a win. That’s almost half the total wins. Then, he had under 200 in losses to dallas and ravens.

Cousins exceptionally good performances outweigh his poor ones by a massive margin so you can try and hang your hat on anomalies all you want. The fact is he has already produced more 300 yard games than any other Vikings QB in their history to go with 124 TD’s which again has never been matched over the course of four seasons by any other Vikings QB. You keep pretending that the few bad games Cousins has had are what defines him. They aren’t.

Actually completely false, the oline blocked their asses off to the tune of200 yards rushing, cousins played like a pussy, par for the course in primetime, under 50% completions and two picks constant inaccuracy, ffs even Bradbury played well and Kirk was still shitting himself. The only lineman that didn’t play well was udoh, but don’t let facts get in your way

#Vikings Week 14 offense top 5 PFF grades (min. 15 snaps):

1. Cole 82.8

2. Bradbury 77.4

People say the commodity of choice after the fall (of society) will be ammunition, booze and cheap cigarettes/cigars. No need to worry about me consuming the supply of cigs f that. You’ll be jonesing on swisher sweets and Cohiba Behike 52’s.

I bought a Berkey and have it carefully packed away. My wife, “How ridiculous, you paid $400 for that?” Oh you would be darn happy I had it if the grid fails. “If that day comes I will say good job.” I wait…

I am likely going to buy a commodity index fund, get rich. Cigarettes are bad and 99.99% of cigar smokers never would smoke cigarettes. Lol, how do you know about Behike’s?

I just did a search for Cuban cigars and that one sounded suitably exotic and probably costs as much as my fee for reading a pinky x-ray.

Some are and some are good. They are much better with some age generally as they don’t age the tobacco as much anymore. They raised their prices to like double+ in the last 2 months, apparently demand, production issues, etc. Lmao, I got these 18 months ago for under $400. There is no way this lasts, period.

I used to buy Cubans quite often from Ihavans.com, I’ve always ended up with much higher quality stuff than what you get at the local cigar shop for roughly the same 11-16 per stick, plus you can request aged boxes and they usually accommodate. Since this shortage stuff started things are more crazy though, the last time I bought the Cohiba Robustos Fiver mentioned it was $400 for a box of 30 which is about $13.50 a stick. Now the only drawback to ordering Cubans online is that customs could theoretically check it coming into the country and confiscate it, and when you buy a box or 3 at a time you could just be out $500-1k, I’ve ordered probably a hundred times and its never happened though.

Those Robustos are 3x that now, totally ridiculous. I’ve ordered a ton of times, never had an issue. No way I pay that, can get so many others that are great for a fraction of that. Guy just told me the reason is that chi-na (my best Trump impersonation) now owns 49% of HSA (the cuban company who runs the show) and that they limited production way down and are charging asia prices. never will work, way too high

Remember when I said cigars are healthy, which they are. Case closed.

The decline in testosterone levels is almost certainly linked to higher rates of obesity (which suppresses testosterone) and may be linked to lower rates of smoking in men (since nicotine is a potent aromatase inhibitor).

Because in the long run the powers that be want a weak society, physically, mentally, etc. The want you to rent everything not own as well. How do you keep people from being physically strong, deprive them of important solid protein, beef, chicken, pork etc. And slowly move them to a cheap, less notorious and nutrient rich food. Support your local farmers and ranchers, and eat meat. Full stop.
