Hey I have a restaurant question!

Is it still legal to pay for your meals at a sit-down restaurant using cash? If so, when did they pass a law that the change will be rounded to the nearest dollar? And, should that be rounded up, or down?

I find one local bistro rounds up, the other down. I am bemused in either case.

46 razorbacker  Sun, Jul 13, 2008 10:02:06pm

This is interesting. Not ID vs evolution interesting, but interesting.

Guided by the pristine myth, mainstream environmentalists want to preserve as much of the world's land as possible in a putatively intact state. But "intact," if the new research is correct, means "run by human beings for human purposes." Environmentalists dislike this, because it seems to mean that anything goes. In a sense they are correct. Native Americans managed the continent as they saw fit. Modern nations must do the same. If they want to return as much of the landscape as possible to its 1491 state, they will have to find it within themselves to create the world's largest garden.

Message for UncleSam (and other Lizards who gave an opinion last night):

I just came back from watching Hellboy II. Even in the last-showing on Sunday night, there was not a seat to be had in the house. Word of mouth must be excellent.

Remember I said I didn't like comics adaptations? Hellboy is the exception. It was amazing. Go watch it, in case you haven't.

Thanks for the tips, earlier.

re: #42 DesertSage

I took about another ounce out of the crankcase today, and got it down to the safe zone. Might have to add maybe a half ounce just to bring it back to the top of the range.

That's the crappy thing about scooters - and in particular, plastic-covered, Chinese scooters. I'm a guy who likes to get into the engine, and do my own work. But with a scooter, you have to pull off the shell. This involves a lot of screws, then carefully pulling apart the panels. They have tabs on them that help keep the plastic from warping, and it's very easy to break them.

That being said, the engine sounds like it's running a little smooter, and there was a few fragments in the oil screen, so it needed an oil change.

Now, here's a scooter I could work on.

After you drained the oil and refilled it, did you start it up before you checked it? The oil needs to get into all of the engine parts before you can get a proper reading.
Also, did you change the oil filter? That can hold a few onces on a bike your size.

The first in English, the second in what little Spanish I still remember and the third in Babelfish Spanish, cause I figured his son is supposed to be with him (and his daughter in law) and maybe they were looking at his e-mails but don't read english.

More on the New Yorker cover fall-out. The Dems are twisting themselves inside-and-out about it. Most fail to see the humour of the satire and a few want the New Yorker to pull the magazine this week (oh, freedom of speech sweet irony, booyeah!).

The best lame-o rebuttal comes from Taylor Marsh:

Another way to look at it is to ask whether John McCain would get a dose of this from The New Yorker. Picture a drawing showing a very old man in a wheelchair, his hospital gown adorned with medals... babe of a wife pushing him, as his first wife wipes drool off of McCain's mouth... while Cindy McCain stops to open packages from Chanel. No, I didn't think so either.

Paris Hilton’s Hollywood mansion is up for sale for $4.3 million. They said the home is equipped with a professional video studio. Or as Paris calls it, the master bedroom.

I sure hope you're right PBJ, I sure do and I will post if I do hear from him.
He did say in his e-mail this morning that he had slept for a long time and was confused about the time he was supposed to call me - e-mailed that to me at 3:40AM; I got it and replied immediately at about 8:00AM - nada since then nor since my other two e-mails.
Shit.


He's probably got his kids telling him not to e-mail or something. The fact that he e-mailed you is very good news. Heck, sometimes I don't know what time it is when I wake up and I didn't have a stroke. Hopefully, for our buddy, it really was a mild one.

Well Canada and the 13 colonies were founded around the same time. The first settlement in North America was in Virginia. Unfortunately it didn't last long. Canada was more exploited by fur traders than anything else.

I'm going to write a blogpost soon about that.

Cindy McCain:

- Has doubled her father's fortune since she took over his business.
- Has fought against landmines for years with Halo Trust.
- Regularly travels abroad to Nicaragua, Kuwait, Rwanda, Vietnam, Bangladesh, to give supplies and aid, not to mention their time and presence to distressed people.
- Is a strong fundraiser for Project Smile and CARE.
- Donates 200,000 to charity every year.
- Adopted a Bangladeshi girl who needed severe reconstructive cleft-palate surgery.

Michelle Obama:

- Is a lawyer.

But for MSM, Michelle is an unrivalled heroine of the underclass, whereas Cindy McCain is nothing more than a former addict debutante airhead trophy wife. Yeah right.

I am just in the beginning of the commentaries, but this is the one which popped out:

Everyone who has a New Yorker subscription needs to get on the phone right now to the magazine's offices. Let them know that if they publish this, you will cancel your subscription.

And if they do publish it, follow through on your threat. This is outrageous. I can't even imagine the National Review getting away with such a cover, snark or not. Most Americans won't see the "irony".

For 8 years, we have been treated to Rolling Stone magazine and other covers with the most insulting depictions of a sitting US president -- and we had to take it, else be thought lacking humour.

OK, so now that "PBJ" is off to bed, I can talk about Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac again.

So, if the government (or one of their socialist home-mortgage racketeers), perhaps via Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or a loan held in trust via the FDIC, owns your home, does that change in any way the search and seizure laws?

E.g., do you really have the same right to privacy (or the veneer thereof), as if when the government didn't own your home?

Anyone? Anyone, ... Bueller?

a reasonable expectation of privacy is just that, no matter who owns the property where you reside. They cannot be subject to any search nor seizure without the proper steps being taken.

I don't know the way it's done in the states but up here in Canuckistan CHMC insures the mortgage for the bank. The bank itself has first call on the loan if it's foreclosed. It's a bit more detailed then that. Are Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac actually banks? Or do they insure the loan?

that's not the worst part of those "section 8's" It's the blight they bring with them to the entire neighborhood. Interesting study done which showed that after public housing towers were demo'd and the occupants were given rent and where ever they went, those little red/blue/yellow dots indicating robbery/burglary/assault etc. soon followed.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can either insure the loan, or themselves own the loan.

However, independent of them, there may be even more complicated cases, where the loan is owned by a bank originally (e.g., IndyMac), but is then seized by the FDIC - so the gov't owns it in this case too...

336 blackpajamas  Sun, Jul 13, 2008 11:49:06pm

Also, as per BlueCanuck's general inquiry, people in the U.S., who qualify, can get loans directly, through the Federal Housing Authority (FHA); the same FHA for which Congress recently passed a bill to expand their loaning capacity to people with really, really, bad credit!

re: #336 blackpajamas

Thankfully up here that isn't a problem. In order to qualify for a CMHC coverage, you must have at least 5% of the total mortgage, be a first time home buyer, and qualify at a bank for the mortgage. It used to be 10% but it was lowered about 10 years ago after the real estate market took off. In essence we don't have the sub prime mess up here that you guys are experiencing. Also our mortgages are calculated differently as well. Interest is calculated semiannually rather than annually.

re: #335 BlueCanuck

Sounds like a real mess down there. I bet there's a whole industry of consultants that assists and tracks that stuff.

The real danger is that the U.S. government only makes things worse with their interference.

However, that is not to say that short-term bailout solutions do not have their merit - although there are still side effects, like growing the size of the federal gov't (which has a remarkable way of never shrinking).

The real solution, the necessary solution, for the scope outside of the immediate short term, is to abolish quasi-government monopoly holders like Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae; as they have special borrowing privileges that no other companies in the U.S., have - privileges that their execute staff have abused, and for which they shall be punished, and allow private industry to shoulder the mortgage holding and insurance business in a market oriented manner without government interference and inefficiency.

In parting, I'll mention a bright light I saw this weekend from here:

"McCain is going to have to focus his campaign on just 3-4 themes, and then sharpen them, simplify them, and contrast them with Obama. E.g…

Illegal Immigration: We can talk all we want about “comprehensive immigration reform” but it won’t matter if we don’t close the border—now. I will; my opponent won’t. Close the border now, and all the contentious issues—amnesty, guest workers, fines and deportation—can be dealt with as the pool of illegal aliens shrinks rather grows."

He handled so much better than I thought he would (he's a very tender boy). I was dying to find out about how he did with the wilderness survival MB where he had to build a shelter and sleep in it at night. He loved that best - and the shotgun shooting.

Oh yes there's a difference! "Whippersnapper" implies affection. "Young punk" needs to be slapped upside the head.

Yeah... the ID threads are undergoing mitosis I believe... more of them as time passes...

If I feel I can add anything I try to give some links or explanations, meanwhile trying to not get in the middle of the inevitable squabbles between clashing personalities... It is an important topic that many blogs on the "right" have shied away from... but discomfort is not sufficient reason to avoid these discussions IMO.

re: #418 Neo Con since 9-11

Fruitcup is an old, established tradition at LGF, going back to the Mike C. days when HE was the one shooting for "Good morning" at exactly 5 am Eastern (even though he was usually elsewhere in the world.) When he was late he got a razzing based upon the rotating title: Those who are tardy do not get fruit cup.

It...evolved since then. ;-)

Miguelito! :-) :-) :-)

I neglected to mention that this happened in the hinterlands of Europe (PodKarpatskaRus) many years ago. Not only had she probably never seen a doctor, there most likely wasn't a doctor to SEE.

And in a weird, horrible way, her death in 1942 was a blessing. Better die of a stroke in a minute than what happened to my other grandparents in 1944...

You should. One of my GF's friends had a stroke a couple of months ago (age of 31). She's mostly recovered but still has some issues.

442 BlueCanuck  Mon, Jul 14, 2008 2:28:37am

re: #441 BlueCanuck

Let me rephrase that last part. Most of her issues are the implications of what happened and the change she has to make in her lifestyle.

Sat. I read a Historical novel called Sarah's key it was about a French/American journalist living in France and about a Jewish girl who survived the french police round up of Jews at the french velo drome in 1942. very sad story but i could not put it down

i am currently finishing up carving the text for a woodcut version of a Passover Haggadat working on the colophon which is the last part of it. It is a project I started back around 2000 I am not sure I am happy or sad that the text part of the project is coming to completion. I can always add new or different illustrations but that is different.

funny with the spell check on here it wants to change Haggadat to haggard
