Back in the malaise days, I found myself unemployed, and no one was hiring. No one. I joined the navy. There are 1,400,000 more job openings than there are people unemployed. There is zero excuse for not being gainfully employed......unless your just a slacker.

So what is the current "misery index"? As an aside, why is it that current writers assign each sentence to a separate paragraph? (1) it lengthens the size of an article. (2) They were never required to in creative writing school, (3) They do not know how to.

Howie is joking of course. Carter meant well, he was just pessimistic and stupid. Obama has his little girly fingers all over the Biden mob's actions.

I paid a bathroom fixtures supplier thousands of dollars in advance six moths ago. Now he says he needs another few months to come up with the supplies. Reason ? COVID.I have friends who are waiting eight months or more. These people cannot find workers willing to work for a wage.

#6, I hate to tell you that the money you gave to him is gone. He either used it to keep from getting sued by a previous client or blew it by making it rain at the local "gentleman's club". Thirty-five years of experience in this biz allows me to know your plight. BTW, I've never been sued by any of my hundreds of clients. My Dad drummed it into my head that a person who is an honest businessman need not worry about repurcussions and you should always do what you say you'll do every time. Good luck in your quest for recompense.

We Bet F-150 Lightning's Range Is under 100 Miles when Towing at the Max 15 replies
Posted by bad-hair 5/21/2021 12:57:21 PM Post Reply
Range typically occupies an outsized chunk of the conversation on any new EV. But, in the case of the F-150 Lightning, which has the bestselling pickup's usual healthy scoop of towing and hauling capabilities, things get more complicated. Ford is claiming that the range figures for its electric pickup will come in at 230 miles and 300 miles, depending on whether the standard-range (which we estimate can hold 115.0 kWh) or extended-range battery pack (150.0 kWh, same caveat) is beneath the bed. Those are EPA predictions, specifically EPA combined figures, in lightly loaded conditions.

U.S. President Joe Biden toured Ford's Rouge Electric Vehicle plant on Tuesday to get a better understanding of the company's approach to zero-emission cars and trucks, unmasking the F-150 Lightning in the process.  CORRECTIONS*

Fear and anger. Resentment and violence against Muslim-Americans — true and faithful followers of a peaceful religion,” Biden said in a prerecorded video published for the occasion. The president said that the principle of “unity” in the country was endangered by the attacks but ultimately prevailed.

Sept. 11, 2001, marked the start of a new era for Muslims in the United States. Shortly after al-Qaida terrorists attacked the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, many Muslims, as well as other Arab Americans, became the targets of anger and racism. Mosques were burned or destroyed and death threats and harassment followed many Muslims in the weeks following the attacks, according to congressional testimony from the Southern Poverty Law Center in 2011. Some victims were beaten, attacked or held at gunpoint for merely being perceived as Muslim, the organization said. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who is Muslim, reflected on

President Joe Biden's new vaccine mandates for federal employees don't apply to members of Congress or those who work for Congress or the federal court system. Biden issued two executive orders on Thursday requiring vaccination against COVID for federal workers and contractors who work for the federal government. He also asked the Department of Labor to issue an emergency order requiring businesses with more than 100 employees to ensure their workers are vaccinated or tested on a weekly basis. However, Biden's order on federal workers applies to employees of the executive branch.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced results from a study Friday that found unvaccinated individuals were 11 times more likely to die from COVID-19 than fully vaccinated people. The research, spanning more than 600,000 people in 13 jurisdictions, also determined that unvaccinated populations were over 10 times more likely to be hospitalized — figures that underscore COVID-19 vaccines protect recipients from deaths and hospitalizations. The study also showed that unvaccinated people were 4 1/2 times more likely to contract COVID-19 than the fully vaccinated. The studies come just one day after President Biden announced a new rule
