If the Netherlands had the same population as the USA, you would have over 100,000 deaths.
Where did you go, Max?
No facts to support your leftist position?
Pu $$y
You're still online but won't respond.
10 minutes later you are still online and won't respond.
10 minutes later, again, and you still won't respond.
Coward.
13 munites later, you are still online and won't respond.
I walk away from my PC all the time with SH loaded. I'll bet I don't have two thirds of the time listed in actual viewing time. Only minutes here and there, longer if I do Post build photos in Builds, but I've backed off on that a great deal. Gee. So just because it my appear someone is on SH doesn't mean they are on SH.
I've been here only a few minutes and if I didn't have to check my mail it would appear as though I was still here. Could be all day, hours anyway.
The "name calling?" What's that all about? Why?
I had 10 years of that and I know EXACTLY why it happens. I still get it.
Just yesterday I get a call from a fellow modeler who I'm very fond of, he's a flaming Liberal, on fire actually.
Yea, times being as they are we had a great, some ways funny, conversation. I brought up Michelle Obama being a guy. There's always a guy.
Certainly we agree on nothing political. So what? He's still a great guy and a fellow modeler a great modeler actually. The thought of calling this guy, there's always a guy, a name of any kind doesn't enter my mind. It's pointless. Well, maybe tempting sometimes.
I don't understand the hate, I know where the jealously comes from, but name calling a fellow human being and modeler, is uncalled for. America, diversity, it takes all kinds. So we tolerate because we can. At least we should.
Robert, another modeler I'm extremely fond of, has always said, "Change the channel." Robert also said a few years ago, "Wait before you reply." Give yourself some time to think before you Post. Time to "think."
The last 8 years of the Obama administration has brought divide between many in this Country. His efforts in opening mental wounds and dividing us from each other was successful, really successful and by design.
We don't have to keep it going.
Two days ago I ordered a small plastic wiper blade part for my wife's VW Jetta Sportwagen, 4.00 and change, the shipping was more.
The guy, there's always a guy, in the VW Parts Dept. was kind and courteous. He had an accent that was very noticeable and I can generally guess accents and I did. I asked him if he was from Russia or the Ukraine?
He said he was from Russia. My joking I said, "Well, I'm not mad at you for that, welcome to the US."
Obviously he said thank you. I asked him how long he had been here and his reply wasn't what I expected. 1997 was when he arrived in the
"Good old USA."Sure, I love conversations with level head individuals so I immediately asked a few questions.
Turns out he eventually settled in NJ but really doesn't like living there any longer. OK. I can understand this, I moved two times because I couldn't stand the states I was living in and told him so. States have a tendency to change depending on who's in power. Bad people get elected and do bad things. Be careful who you vote for, it can be life changing, and it has been.
He told me he left Russia because he no longer felt free there. He said they use words to describe what isn't instead of what it really is, sound familiar, like the New Republics he said.
I had a Russian tennis buddy way back and we talked about the changes in Russia, mostly the Communists control or take over of Capitalism. Do some homework it's interesting what transpired in Russia in the early years. BTW. It's always Capitalism which has to go, ask any Liberal Democrat Communists elected to office.
Anyway, remember, he landed in America in 1997, fast forward to 2020, two days ago, we're talking remember.
He tells me he no longer feels free and he's unhappy. He said he left Russia for America for
Freedom and to feel free and have a greater self-worth. It took only 20 or so years for this man from Russia to feel like he felt when he was living in Russia. I've heard this from many who have come to America for the same reasons he did.
Now he tells me he's concerned for this two daughters and wife. His daughters are 7 years old and the other 5 years old.
Can anyone else out there understand where this Country is going because of people? Really bad people who are elected to office? Is it understood?
Do we have control over this? Not as much as we would like, that's a given.
But we do have control over ourselves, one would think we do. The times we are experiencing now can be troubling but we can still be better people.
There's a good deal of VW influence in TN. A factory that employs 5,000 people and many VW Dealerships throughout the state. TN is also one of the most "Red" states in the country. The guy from Russia, now living with his family in the US as a legal citizen, said he'll gladly look into a move. I offered to help because he's a fellow American and deserves help from another fellow American.
Interesting I choose that Dealership.
