Who doesn't know that?
I thought everybody knew they used rudders - like a boat.
They might use steering levers like a skid steer loader. I don't know. I have never driven one.
They have a throttle lever plus a brake lever. And a horn. They pretty much go where the track is.
I would agree but I wonder if the populous has the nerve to start saying "NO, enough is enough". Until someone uncovers the money trail, I doubt you will see much more than a skirmish or two.
The Demwit government officials also need to be outed. Until then, ANTIFA has a strong ally.
This fight has to be on multiple fronts. It's not as simple as to destroy the field operatives.
The only problem with that is that the DA will either drop the charge, let them plead down or allow bail at an outrageous low amount of money. Many rioters have been arrested multiple times. The Demwit government is just sitting on the sidelines.
They need to be prosecuted on a Federal level where they would face stricter judicial penalties.
All police forces; federal, state and local need to be defunded .... for just one month. That’s all we need. Just one month
Gunsmith friend said someone brought him a PSA that would not group. He field-stripped and inspected and was surprised to find a smoothbore.
I gotta say the time and energy to remake this song is impressive.
One of the people who wrote that was mindy Robinson. She ran for congress in Nevada and lost and was also in the movie Range 15.

I Was Thinking...
I saw an article on my Home Page this morning mentioning Joe Biden and it got me thinking about how every time they have a naming contest for a boat or a “Win a Concert with Taylor Swift” contest, “Boaty McBoat Face” and the “Perkins School for the Deaf” respectively always win. Clearly the general public left to their own devices are rarely capable of anything much beyond satire, ridicule or parody.
I believe we are seeing this currently in the upcoming Presidential election, where an obviously very, very ill Joe Biden (Alzheimer’s? Senile Dementia?) and I truly mean that in the least pejorative way possible, can actually be competing for the highest office in the land. It got me thinking, at what point does someone (and who is that someone) step in and say, “I’m sorry, but we cannot allow ‘Boaty McBoat Face’ to be elected President”?

Tower climbers working (scary). How about a risk assessment for this!!
Hope you like heights? It is incredible what people do for a living!
Whatever this person is paid it is not enough (1768 feet straight up) - I broke out in a sweat watching this!
Just wait for the short cartoon intro to finish, then hold on to your seat. The risk assessment would be interesting.

I haven’t had to travel for work. I ride bikes or skateboards with my kids every day. My wife remembered how to cook. All of the useless turds at work are at home now and can’t brake anything. I have put a bunch of money into savings. I like 2020.
I’m surprised those guys could carry their balls up that high. Damn I was sitting here sweating watching that.
That's one thing that never bothered me is Heights. I would have no problem doing that job.
I had a roommate at one time that was a steelworker on high-rises. He stopped doing that and went to do Tower work just as you're seeing in the video. Haven't talked to him in a while but last time I did and he said he was loving it.

That “someone” was the person (not Joe) who picked Kamala Harris. That is who is actually running for POTUS on the Democratic ticket.
My nephew repaired towers, replaced light bulbs, etc., for years. I've only been on a couple of shorter towers, but I've climbed quite a few big walls in places like Zion, Red Rocks, Long's Peak etc. On a big wall that is somewhat planar, once you are up a few hundred feet, your eye/head usually goes through a change and the vertical plane basically becomes your horizontal. Jim Beyer put up a route on the right side of the Diamond that he named "Steep Is Flat" and that captures it.
A tower is different. You don't have a reference plane to flip your eye/brain. Regardless, relaxation in the face of exposure is trainable. I love looking down big drops. Thanks for the video.
I’ve missed three days of work running from a storm that didn’t hit. I defended my retirement gambling, the way 2008 taught me, when the talk got loud. Biking and skating have replaced shopping, indoor play parks, baseball and fight classes all after work or weekends.
looks like a fucking kid, thoughts and prayers for the 2 victims. Fuck the domestic terrorist org called BLM.
God Bless both of them, the doctors, nurses and staff. May God's wrath fall upon the assailant. He does not deserve to live. Such a coward.
Plenty of good people are straining at the leashes ready to hunt that despicable human down...
I get to climb towers as part of my job - maybe a dozen times a year. Depends on what shit decides to break. Just have to pay attention to what you're doing.
Our tallest one is only about 240', and most climbs are only about 100', depending on where the equipment is. But if you're up about 30' and fall off, you're dead anyway. It's never bothered me - you just have to trust your gear and make sure you're hooked on. I'm still doing it at 57, but I'm not up to climbing one of those really tall ones. The young guys can do that for me now.
We work on overhead sign structures over live freeway lanes too. Most of them have no catwalks - we stand on the structure itself. That's really fun if there's a lane closure as well, because all the idiots going by underneath are good and pissed from being backed up a ways. But then they bitch when the roads don't work right....
Not interested in an old T-72 but a cheap surplus BMP-1 would be fun to drive around town.
Is it still for sale? Asking for @1J04
