A woman in a hot air balloon realizes she is lost. She lowers her altitude and spots a man fishing from a boat below. She shouts to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."

The man consults his portable GPS and replies, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.

She rolls her eyes and says, "You must be a Republican!"

"I am," replies the man. "How did you know?"

"Well," answers the balloonist, "everything you tell me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me."

The man smiles and responds, "You must be a Democrat."

"I am, replies the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," says the man, "You don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and now you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault."


Speaking of stereotypical partisan BS, the problem with trying to tell a joke in JFCland, is nobody here can laugh. Because the laughing end is plugged, everything just comes out the other end.

Pretty sure this joke has saved human lives.

Because, if Republicans can't laugh, they'll become Democrats.

srs. humans are God's favs, but when we think we're depending on our own wits, and being run from one panic to another by the news, we lose our tolerance for first others, then ourselves. Suicide rates. Dems have ten times the suicide rate as Republicans.

When we learn to have faith in God, we relax. Heart attack rates decline. We laugh. We smile. We roast hot dogs and marshmallows, tell campfire legends, and have sex under the stars. Life is good.
 
Seems that a great many rodent plagued properties in Baltimore are owned by Trump's son-in-law. And he seems to be a terrible landlord with numerous code violations. This is really not news, it's well known, but the irony is worth pointing out...

Good find.

I read on the ny times that Mar a Lago was fined by Florida for having 73 violations, including rodent infestation in the kitchen. Of course, Donald’s fans don’t Care. They know this isn’t about rodents or Baltimore, it’s about insulting big cities, elitists, and minorities.

Take a look at every democratic controlled large city in this country and tell me what you find. Race has nothing to do with the fact that those cities have been run by democrats for decades and they’ve all been forgotten about. Homeless, filthy, rats, disease, violence, and poverty. Yet they still go vote for the same party that has put them in that position. It’s really amazing.

This is such a lazy attack it’s not worth refuting. So who’s alt are you? Hack’s?

Sex under the stars.... yah man. yah. I had sex once.

Makes sense, men with low incomes and easy access to firearms are much more likely to kill themselves. That's a big part of Trump's base.

The suicide epidemic really should get more attention, it's so sad to see so many people throw their lives away. Can't help but think a big part of this is the social stigma some people have against seeking mental health, and of course the lack of access to mental health care is a problem as well.
 

Sometimes, even information gleaned from a progressive advocacy site can be better than pure BS.

So far in my life, I have known of only two suicides among people I'm related to, or whom I know.

Clearly, my data is empirical and anecdotal...... and way out of line with the larger trends in the state, country, and world.

A childhood neighbor who had a serious, uncurable, and very painful health issue got hold of a gun and made his way to heaven. He was a very good kid.

An aged relative who had I think a cancer diagnosis, used his deer rifle to make a cheap exit.

I don't expect either lost grace with God.

There is a counter argument to almost any kind of do=gooder social engineering or guvmint "solution", as might be inferred from my post above.

people should mind their own business......

However, my wife recently dragged me out to an LDS event sponsored by her stake, a program directed at teen problem awareness, for parents of teens. Our tow daughters are teens. The expert speaker has done literally hundreds of presentations around Salt Lake over the past few years, is a psychologist and crisis counselor. Schools send kids to her. Parents send their kids to her. yah, she was a knowitall who just might know a lot.

self-esteem and social acceptance issues in the age of Facebook and Twitter. A lot of kids are not getting themselves straight with the value of their own life, and sorta go into despair over their problems with their peers.

People should try to help these kids, personally. Set an example with brazen contempt for"liberal value shaming".... well, or "conservative value shaming"..... whatever.... Just make it plain that it doesn not matter what others think of you, help kids believe in themselves no matter what others think or say.....

After the lady did her bit, I tried to set her straight on a few things. She treated me rudely, believing she was the relevant authority.

I told her that the best way to teach self=esteem is to teach religion.... a specific religion..... that puts a very high value on human beings, essentially teaching that we are "Children of the King" when we come to Jesus. That whatever our problems or "sins" may be, God is there to help if we call on Him.

The problem with progressive philosophies and world views is that simple "materialism" really denies the value of human life, and really denies the value of personal conscience and personal self-esteem based on innate worth which does not require validation by others.

Things like freedom of belief, freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and all kinds of individual rights are always under constant assault from dreamers who think they see a better way we should all just roll over and buy into.

And finally, here is what is wrong.... here is the lie, in Game's link. How do they establish the set of "Trump's Base"? They make some huge assumptions. A lot of uneducated, rural folks are Democrats, people on guvmint relief...... food stamps, unemployment..... people who have huge deductibles and co-pays under Obamacare....

I read the article and did not see any reference to actual research or polling about suicide that could establish political preference. It is all BS.,..... pretty much the same sort of thing as my own BS.

But I appreciate the offering.... the link...... . It did give me some better information than what I started with.....

It did not change my opinion that our epidemic has more to do with taking God out of our education and other public functions. Not that I want a State Religion. I don't want Materialism to be our State Religion either. Just the freedom to speak and be what we believe in any public place, in any government-run institution. And have our rights of belief or speech absolutely Trump "Political Correctness."

Well, within reason and in good manners.

Another mindless push for a political agenda. Really, don't you ever stop?

OK, So Cummings did this really mean and insulting show on Trump's border honcho, essentially "shaming" him for allegedly putting babes into piles of ****..... it made Trump mad. So, essentially, Trump's response was why not solve your own problems. I think Trump had a point to make, and made it.

The babes on the Border have it pretty tough..... lots of **** to plow through.... to get to the Border. And when they get picked up by the Border Patrol, they get meals and baths and some basic needed stuff for personal care. Cummings is a Big Lie politician who needs to be called out. The NY Times and a lot of other political pushers are not objective reporters, or fair in the least in their political rants.

Rats are perhaps the most resilient species on Earth..... well.... I dunno..... mosquitos and coyotes come to mind...... They thrive everywhere......

There are significant other rodents that seem to be plenty well-endowed and prolific.

Anybody who owns a rental in a neighborhood with essentially no garbage pick-up is likely going to complain to anybody who will listen. Trump's kid, and some of his cabinet officials who are from Baltimore, have probably done of lot of complaining to Trump about Baltimore's "Sanitation Department". And anyone with a large property and no cats is going to have rats, sometimes, and is going to need to hire help to eradicate them.

This is going to be a huge political issue in the coming campaign. Trump is going to be calling out mayors and Dems officials in every "sanctuary City" and every place that is not being kept clean You wanna make up stuff about conditions on the Border? You're gonna hear about conditions all over America where people are homeless and living in filth. Our public resources are being over-run by people we are not prepared to care for.
 
LOL! Good point!!!

Well in his defense, Alabama is “only” in the top 4 poorest states. It’s not even top 2. Womp womp.

It’s not quite as big of a **** hole as West Virginia, Kentucky, or Mississippi. Which party controls those 3 states again?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_poverty_rate

uhhhmmmm......

cars in the front yard, on blocks..... are not "rats".

WV has been pretty much a democrat state until Obama did his dump on its coal. By the way, did you know that right after Obama vowed to destroy coal business/mines..... he and some of his friends bought huge stakes in those companies, at rock bottom prices. So Obama and his cronies are laughing all the way to the bank at Trump, for helping them close their deals at a profit. You really are reaching for comfort in this taunt. These states have dumps, but their dumps are still the cities where Democrats are in office.....

besides dems should not be equating poverty with shame. The whole dream of progressivism to make us all that poor. While the liberal Lords of the Manor jet around from one whorehouse to another.
