NK is high on my list of unanswered Q. What would make Americans riot over who runs NK? I wouldn’t GAF about anyone running it unless it is some US faction. (Or space aliens) I’m certainly not rioting over Israel running it. I don’t believe Americans will ever full scale riot over anything that happens outside of our borders. Most people truly don’t GAF about the rest of the world.
You are correct. It’s the rare carpenter that builds high quality projects nowadays. They are hard to find and always expensive. But furniture should last generations. Check out my friend at rvp1875.com. He builds beautiful furniture by himself using entirely 1875 technology. From hand cutting the trees all the way to ancient recipe staining. He dresses like he’s on Little House on the Prairie. Rob is a great guy but too liberal in politics for my taste.
I was in federal prison with Lyndon. We watched the initial bombing of the gulf war together. We were the only two in the tv room that night. He was cussing and yelling and then made a phone call. Federal Medical Center Rochester Minnesota. I loved that guy. He took no shit. I have other stories about him too.
Rev Jim Bakker was there also. I still talk to him.
Federal system doesn’t have parole. The best she can do is earn 52 days each year good time. Once vested it can’t be taken back. She then will do 4-12 months at the end of her time in a halfway house. She’ll be locked up at least 7 years unless Trump pardons her.
Precious metals are measured in troy weights. A troy ounce is 31.10 grams. In the US the ounce measurement for anything but a precious metal, if not noted otherwise, is actually the avoirdupois ounce. It is 28.35 grams. So an ounce of silver is a little less than 3 grams heavier than an ounce of lead.
An avoirdupois pound consists of 16 avoirdupois ounces and is 453.6 grams. A troy pound consists of 12 troy ounces and is 373.2 grams.
4:00 pm count is nationwide for the feds. I had to “stand for count” over a thousand times for the feds. No one in the fed system is uncounted at 4:00 pm. All work assignments and inmate movement stops until the count is confirmed accurate. Inmates in the hole don’t have to stand though. I had a couple hundred of those too. The hacks lied about the 4:00 pm count here.
