It is obvious that the real economy has developed something of an immunity to the stimulative effects of cheap money. Debt increases, but the economy slows.
Bill, your comment; A technician must come with a ‘briefcase’ that he plugs into the vehicle to determine the cause of the malfunction. Unfortunately, even then attempting to gain where the fault lies is problematic. One can pull down code(s) to deterimine a cause the truth is a process of elimination. Take for example, the engine stalls or hesitates, runs rough you plug in your scanner, it detects a "misfire" cylinder 2 and or cylinder 4. The question then becomes, a) is it spark plug b) fuel injector(s) c) S.plug leads,d)coil.
Its not like the damn thing says to you, replace this one component and your good to go. On the contrary, you have to rely on the basics; prior condition, sight,sound,smell, mileage, age, dropping any and all posibilities to potential cause. 8 or 9 out of 10 times electrical connections are where majority faults lye. Why? You have heat and vibrations including ambient air to contend with such as salt. Just a guess if the engine dies suddenly, its a good bet but no gurantee's possible fuel pump. A simple way to determine if this is a cause is to disconnect fuel feed line and see if fuel is being delivered at the fuel rail while someone is cranking the engine over. If not, have someone with a fist hit the fuel tank while another is turning over the engine. If it starts the fault is internal, fuel pump and its running duration will not last. hope this gives people some insight. For what its worth good luck.
Unfortunately Bill "conked out" is also the description of yesteryear's vehicles. A more precise description of why it failed to proceed is required these days for what are essentially parts changers with little ability to diagnose actual cause.
Two comments from Ol' Bill struck me hard today: 1.) "But gold knows what time it is", and 2.) "There is a time to breathe in. And a time to breathe out." Life is precious and oh so short. These two apparently "off the cuff" remarks should give each of us a ponder. Reminds me of the ol' Dionne Warwick song - "What's it all about Alfie.... Is it just for the moment we live".
A Modified Version of the Gold Standard will make a come back very soon!
When The Son of Fred, The American Savior, Lord Trump takes office.
In the day of Herod, many would-be-assassins targeted Jesus. Lord Trump teaches us many things that people don’t like, but He continues to teach the Truth, and that is why the Libs hate Him. President Trump challenges the traditions that Democrats have used since the 70’s to fill the swamp, and because of that He is hated, but persecution will continue to unite and strengthen The Mission.
Lord Trump is unwavering, so they rage and snarl their teeth in anger and hatred. He escapes out of their hands.
Too funny brother Egypt🤣😂🤣😂 because Lord Trump helped elect all those democrats who along with the RINOs filled the swamp. If I wasn’t dedicated to my current health care, I would have my entire family down in Argentina right now, but since I’m doomed to die here, I’ll vote for Trump and hope for a few more months of entertainment before parting ways with my once beautiful country 😊
That is a distinct and deserved group of people that will be wailing from outside the walls. hey had the same chance as the rest of us to use the brain/mind given to them by their Creator, avail themselves to the available information and make an informed Decision in the Affirmative. They will have chosen to ignore all of that and follow the world.
I'll say a prayer that you ain't among them... :)
PS - I had to preach it. I'm guessin' you were being sarcastic about your partner's reaction at times. LMBO...
Come on Egypt, you of all people should know what’s coming to the entire Northern Hemisphere! Can’t run from it in any part of Europe or anywhere north of the Equator 😊. Just trying to educate my kids to a friendlier environment south of the border, with awesome food 😋
So I'm kinda weird sometimes and I don't know what this signifies, but I've been seeing the last tweet by Trump's second attempted assassin (Ryan Routh) that he posted on July 16th 2024. He's basically imploring heels-up Harris and TraitorJoe to go visit the people injured in the first failed assassination attempt and attend the funeral of the slain firefighter because "Trump will never do anything for them."
Oddly, he puts a phone number at the end of the tweet, 808-464-8342. I just called the number - it is in service and contains a voicemail greeting (assumably from Ryan Routh) asking people to reach out to him by other electronic means to volunteer to go back to Ukraine with him to fight the Russians.
I have no idea what any of this means, or if it means anything at all. I told y'all I was a little weird sometimes and just thought it was a bit interesting that our "crack" FBI has either yet to open the low life's phone, maybe they don't have the phone, or nobody thought about turning the service off.
Thank goodness Governor DeSantis is going to conduct a parallel investigation.
No way did the shooter not have help - inside scheduling info at the least...
PS - Huh. THIS is kinda odd. Maybe we should review all their commercials and try to spot the individual(s) who will pull trigger #3:
EDIT: the video referenced is NOT a Blackrock ad but a fundraising ad for the Azov Battalion in Ukraine. Yes. the same Battalion that wears the NAZI regalia. Just sayin'...
I know brother, our world is getting crazier by the minute. Ryan is just one of many millions of insane people who are registered democrats. The proof of their ignorance and stupidity is continuing to vote for politicians who have done so much damage to our nation, and promise to continue doing more. He did say he voted for Trump in 16, and continues to flog himself for it, because like most democrats, they live in a psychotic self loathing state every day and most don’t even realize who they are or what they’re doing. They are the walking dead, the zombie nation that has been created by our democrats for a controlled voting base. Sooo looking forward to seeing how the walking dead reacts when Trump is elected. It’s going to be so entertaining for the living 😊
SE: Don’t you ever take a rest? You always blame the Dems no matter how ridiculous the point you are trying to make. Maybe it was a disgruntled Republican. Well, since Trump spends so much time at the golf course, it probably was an easy plan. You know that Trump has the distinction of playing more golf than any other president!
Gawd Dottie - do you know my libtarde brother?? He said the same thing about how we don't "know" the A-holes politics.
Well Toots, take a look at his ActBlue donation history, his moron support for Ukraine, his irrational hatred of Israel and don't forget - the Biden/Harris sticker on the tailgate of his truck. Plus the obvious-to-a-toddler fact that people don't usually try to assassinate the political leaders they supprt. *insert eye roll here
Sheeesh - when are y'all gonna figure out that the rest of us are not as stupid as the vast majority of your side?
Part of the oversized bottom-up wealth transfer of the past 3 decades has been brought about by the transformation of the goods and services economy from a “fix/repair” to “remove and replace”. It indeed started with electronics and that remains the
….remains the core industry driving it all. But it even spread to the mechanical side of things. No such thing as a mechanic or “repair man” for anything new. What we have are “remove and replace” technicians. This was done partly by design and partly as a result of the inevitable evolution of technology.
But the dumbing down has been asymmetrical. The “remove and replace” is a substitution of the superior capability of the smarter elite for the “dumber” capability of the mechanic or repair man. The value chain is concentrated at the top, the dumbing down happens below.
Bill, you are old enough and have read history to understand (not new) the candidates do not speak of issues (real) because the masses do not care. As for eating pets----many cultures (Countries) eat cats and dogs as well as many other small animals and the poor will eat most any--"THING". I think President Trump's comment is spot on. The media wants to stop President Trump. Your pick of Kennedy, sure lasted, you can pick-em. Your personal dislike of anyone does not go far for the Country.
Wow still no common sense from you, you need to listen to RFK what he had to say over the weekend should wake you up after all he is your guy. Time to do some soul searching Bill.
Bill, you missed the next verse also a gem of wisdom.
Day unto day (yowm la yowm) pours out (naba’) a proliferation of answers (‘omer). Night unto night (laylah la laylah) reveals (chawah) knowledge which leads to understanding (da’at). (Mizmowr 19:2)
Nothing exists without (‘ayn) the Word (‘omer). Everything is senseless and nothing matters when (wa ‘ayn) the spoken and written words of (dabarym) the Voice which calls out (qowl hem) is considered outdated, is corrupted or denigrated, and is therefore not (bely) heard (shama’). (Mizmowr 19:3)

Great point, Mr. Pete.
Even the guy with the suitcase has to have at least a bit of Skill and/or Experience to be successful - regardless if he knows how to turn a wrench...
That one made me laugh but its very true.

Hang in there brother - no matter what the "experts and doctors" say.
God's got you. His Will ALWAYS prevails for those who love Him and are called by His name...
Rending of their sackcloth and gnashing of their teeth - in the Darkness...
Do you have a camera in my bedroom.
Brother, I hope not!

Argentina Steve L?
Are you Welsh and dream about spending Decembers in Patagonia at the Torres del Paine National Park?
CIA, OPEN UP STEVE!
J/K, lol, That’s a great plan Steve-o, in order to truly live, we must all part ways at some point in time! Never Stop Dreaming! 😃
Come on Egypt, you of all people should know what’s coming to the entire Northern Hemisphere! Can’t run from it in any part of Europe or anywhere north of the Equator 😊. Just trying to educate my kids to a friendlier environment south of the border, with awesome food 😋
And the southern hemisphere winds mean all that nuclear radiation fallout stays in the North.
What makes you think a few nukes won't get lobbed into South America?
SL: Good Luck! Steve
“When the money goes, everything goes” (Bonner) including the Northern Hemisphere! Lol!
“I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky” (Rolling Stones)
All in all, not a bad spot to be at when the dirt hits the fan! 😂
Perhaps also anti military boonedoggle. At least.
On the DEI side.

Ha! Even MORE fun is gonna be a few days after the SHTF and the meds can't be refilled...
The meds might actually be the problem........the cause.....
DingDingDing!
We have a Winner...
Brother SE, There was a community post that said he didn't appear in a Blackrock commercial--only an Azov battalion spot...not sure which is worse..
I stand corrected - the second video is NOT a Blackrock advertisement and YES, your point is extremely valid...

Uh oh, when you drop those logic bombs Dot heads for her shelter. I don't think you'll get response any time soon while she licks her wounds.
I want to know how the guy anticipated Trump's whereabouts when it was an "off the record" movement?
Dorothy new. I'm guessing she might have had a black suit,
a pistol on her hip, and an unruly holster.... I'm probably wrong. That sounds like a lot of work.
Hilarious (especially the "a lot of work" part). That's the sad part, she's not new. Just drinking that same, tired old Marxist Koolaid.

Right on, Mr. Gmitter.

Parts and Parcels of the Great Softening before the Thorough Cull....
Yes brother Starboard, we are living the calm before the storm, when the lights go out for many months…be ready for it 🙏
Yes , It went by way of the vacuum tube,
A fool and a knave.They apply to both Trump and Harris,
Karlsson, you must young, you know so very little.
You must respect the GREAT son of KARL!
Ha!!
Is that Karl Karlsson of Njedivache, or Carl from Topeka?
I think before you call someone like trump a fool you should look in the mirror and see if you’re that much better KC
Bill, you are old enough and have read history to understand (not new) the candidates do not speak of issues (real) because the masses do not care.

RALPH W.
Trump lies about so much
Any other politicians you can name in that category?
Not in his little mind...
Yawn. Snort. Yawn, again...
Still can state his own view . Helps me Take in other views and comments. Thanks Bill.
Welcome back to Ireland Bill.......it's not perfect but it's pretty good and if the sun shines we're in the best place .
Lots of Americans buying into Ireland I see in my Office . Any half baked property here will sell in the current climate .
Ditto in South Florida, Mr. Monahan.
And shacks going for hundreds of thousands of near-worthless fiat...
We might'nt have the Sunshine but we don't have Hurricanes !
Ireland is beginning to look like springfield ohio.
In my dotage I repair and restore old vehicles .
My favorite ride is a 68 IHC pickup. . No electronics ,no power steering or power brakes ,likes to go about 60 and gets around 20 mpg.
What could be better.
