I see some occasionally on my property and around my subdivision.
We have them in the city over by a school where my son's living. He and I were going to breakfast one morning and 3 walked right in front of us. We have raccoons, possums, squirrels, foxes, deer and even coyotes.

That's life.  Just because it's unsubstantiated doesn't mean it should be hidden.  Also, if it's so unsubstantiated, then sue them for libel. 

We have all faced situations where people have accused us of behaving in a way or doing something we didn't do.  When that has happened to me, I don't resort to trying to silence people.  I just explain why they are full of sh1t.

If someone calls in a tip to the police saying you raped someone and you lost your job because of it you would be okay with that?

I wouldn't be fired cause there would be zero substantiating evidence that I ever did such a thing or ever associated with people who behaved like that, with my knowing of it.

It's called, "when you lie down with dogs, you get fleas."

Don't lie down with them and it lessens the chances you will even be involved in such a situation.  All these people knew what he was too. No matter who you are, some things are a deal breaker.

These people all had a lot of money and didn't need to associate with him for their jobs or to even get beautiful women to sleep with.

That's the point. They wouldn't need substantiating. Public image. It's one of the most difficult accusations to defend yourself against.

Apparently, no substantiating is needed for Trump accusations either.

It's not the governments job to silence people's freedom of speech because of this and actively hide allegations.  You think they'd do that for you or me if someone accused us of being involved in some pedo-ring?  We aren't rich enough for that.  Why should rich people who lie down with dogs get special treatment? If you don't want to be accused of being involved in that, then don't associate with people who you know behave like that.  Again, these people are so wealthy they have the whole world and as many beautiful women as they want, at the tips of their fingers.  Nobody made anyone party with him.

That's a two-way street.  Both sides do that sh1t ... all the time.

Mark J, thought you would like this. Where my son works, they can fishing on breaks. He and one of his co workers caught a huge catfish. He didn't have e his phone or he would have taken a picture of it but he thinks it may have weighed around 18-25 pounds.

Hard to beat that for a lunch break!

They don't get to do it very often and have  to have all the barges and tug boats and tow boats cleaned and fueled up. He works 7 days a week and is happier doing this than he did welding. He started about 3 weeks ago.

Embarrassing:



That's not the sort of honor one should bestow on themselves.

I didn't know, thought they had a pond at the welding shop or something.  So he is working at a fleet port now?

"..Attractive women are starting to approach me. God help us all.

Laying the pipe plainly, I think I am a fairly average looking guy and enjoy spending my Friday nights at my local bar.

Usually, after failing to convince a whale to talk to me, I will nurse a hazy ipa at the bar and divide my attention between the sports highlights on tv and the pennystock subreddit.

Well, something unsettling happened last night. Apparently, an attractive lady caught a glimpse of my phone and mistook an image of a SPCX allocation request from this regarded place that she must have assumed was mine.

She opened with, "So you must be big in the AI stock stuff too huh?"

I was too stunned to speak for a moment, but she took that as a sign to get close and let me process what just happened.

Short story short, I've just woken up at her place and need to get back to my job behind the Wendy's to service the morning crew.

God help us all.."

Yes, he was working at welding shop but it got where they never had work as they were outsourcing to some other place. He likes this. They go to Missouri,  Mississippi,  Arkansas and Tennesse so he is liking it and making good money. Time and half on Saturdays and double time on Sundays.

He wants to be up on Mount Rushmore

 Trump mulls inaugural flight of new Air Force One at Mount Rushmore event
No final decision has been made, but upgrades to the $400 million luxury jet are nearly complete, sources said.

President Donald Trump is considering taking the inaugural flight of the new Air Force One jet, gifted to him from Qatar, when he travels to Mount Rushmore in South Dakota next month as part of celebrations for America’s 250th anniversary, according to a senior White House official and a source familiar with the plans.

No final decision has been made, but months of retrofitting the $400 million luxury jet to serve as the presidential aircraft are nearly complete, the sources said. They said White House officials have been discussing the possibility of making Trump’s planned July 3 trip to Mount Rushmore his first flight on the new aircraft.

The Defense Department accepted the donation from Qatar last year, despite fierce bipartisan criticism and questions surrounding the security and ethics of using the plane for official government business. Aviation experts estimated the whole project could cost over $1 billion to overhaul due to the installation of multiple top-secret systems.

The White House has said the jet would be handed over to Trump’s presidential library foundation by the end of his term, in January 2029. That would presumably require the removal of all the sensitive government equipment installed on the aircraft.
