A German joke is no laughing matter.

Discussion: German Lab Leak

I barely made it past Bolden Elementary alive just now. The schoolyard was full of kids having lunch, and I heard one of them tell her friends: “Two peanuts were walking down the street. And one peanut was …”

The joke’s potency may have weakened over the last 80 years, but an abundance of caution requires me to end it there.

I have seen "cleaning vinegar" in gallon jugs at Shop Rite in the cleaning aisle.  They didn't specify strength as I recall.

Regular cleaning strength vinegar is about 5% acid. On metaphysician's advice, I went to Home Depot and got some 30% vinegar. I made a solution of four parts vinegar to one part water, added some dish soap and sprayed the weeds that are growing in my driveway yesterday afternoon. They're already brown and dying. Hopefully we'll get some more sunshine today to really kill them off.

Partita?

Early QB today.

yep, "partita" ... another obscure word. Nicely done on the early QB...I'm stuck at QB -2 yet again

I have failed miserably in the last week or so, but just got QB! Congrats, jim, as usual.

Is someone is choosing to vote for Trump instead of Biden, because of the possibility of Kamala Harris becoming President, it would be a waste of time to try to argue with that person.

I mean, we could tell you a thousand times that Shokin was forced to resign because he WASN'T investigating corruption in Ukraine, and you'll still believe the crap in that Real Clear Investigations article.
