Congratulations on the weight. I am even more proud of you than TMc, because you lead the field, although Ted losing 23 lbs. or so is still pretty cool.

You might have, and I am sure that I got a chuckle out of it.

Your new minimalist designation is in jeopardy with all these well rounded comments.

"The best way to simplify backups is to never create an article in the first place." - Bobby Tony - the anarchist blogger. Such profound irony.

Bobby Tony operating in the shadow of resident minimalist Ted McDonald, and still, he pulls it off.

I would follow your lead here BT, but I got that whole digital storage - I'm in charge - got to set an example in saving everything, lest I forget - kind of thing going on here.

Great analogy. I too have created much with way to much way back "windshield time".

It is time to leave the nest on a more regular basis.

Ted; great post.

At this time in America, we have far too many sedentary folks who need either far less calories or far more exercise.

As a county commissioner for 19 years, I find this post interesting.

Tom, I pray that you are right about Dale Folwell's earnest attention being rewarded for all the rest of us.

This is one of the largest issues in the last few years in North Carolina's governmental landscaped: One member of the council of state battling the Swamp for his constituents.

I don't really know Dale Folwell; I have only spoken to him once when he ran for office for his first term; however, I now know all I need to know about Dale Folwell, and, consequently, he will always receive my loyal support, and I will never speak any words about Dale other than to sing his praises.

Social Justice Warriors are an anathema to patriotism.

And while these so-called warriors might mean well in some narcissistic vein, the vast majority of them - even the so-called "doctors, are so stupid, these efforts do far more damage than good.

My overarching question here is: What is it like to work with Crazy Mazie Hirono. She is certifiably loony.

This post by the venerable Ben Shapiro is as much about the motives of Fake News journalist Jane Mayer as it is Al Franken's.

What will Democratic Socialists and the propagandists in the Fake News do now that the Mueller Witch Hunt is ignominiously and officially over?

How will the Deranged find meaning in this World?

What will they all do when this real investigation, already begun, be a big part in finding a patriotic answer to this non patriotic travesty?

How will the Democratic Socialists react when they lose the U.S. House and the Republicans gain 60 patriot votes in the U.S. Senate in 2020?

James Clapper, John Brennan and Jim Comey must be worried right now. If they are not, these fools are out of their minds.

We are still working on the product, but, it is dramatically improved from what it was.

On the mismanagement of county on this sorry mess, I am in full agreement.

It is going hard in the wrong direction for that right now.

What a loss today was for the Derangement Class.
Commented: Wednesday, July 24th, 2019 @ 6:49 pm By: Stan Deatherage
I just watched Speaker Stammer'n' Nancy Pelosi, "keeping her hand at the level of her eyes", and this strange bird was actually happy with the often incoherent Robert Mueller performance, and stipulated that they (the Democratic Socialists) will continue this constant and expensive investigation nonsense that they started years ago, just because their mass derangement is so important to present unifying principle to their version of the American People.

What will also continue to discover is that the Democratic Socialists, who control the U.S. House, will continue to do no real governing or legislating of this Republic, even exacerbating the Border Crisis that their party is mainly responsible for, and will continue this crisis purely for political purposes.

This new Democratic Socialist party is one built on, and sustained by the non patriots that control their party.

Update: 1:00 pm: Chairman Adam Schiff of the House Intelligence Committee just spoke, and we discovered three things: 1) Adam Shiff is a liar and a slanderer; 2) Adam Shiff is an abject idiot; 3) He is the best the Democratic Socialists have to offer to chair a very important congressional committee.

This is why I now refer to the Democrat Party as the Democratic Socialist Party.

I am glad your day finished up well.

Still, it must be rather disconcerting to discover that a total stranger intrinsically knows that you are a RACIST!

Just know this truth: If everyone is a RACIST(!), no one is a RACIST!

Are you one of Hood's "constituents?"

If you are, you lost me when you suggested that "Time for you to retire Hood!"

I voted in the affirmative with the other commissioners because I am optimistic that our county supervisors should deal with the commissioners honestly, and in the case of the EMS management, I had no reason to feel otherwise.

Commissioner Richardson's vote in the negative, without having all the data, should not shock anyone. Before anyone writes off The Hood, this Commissioner is right, on average, about 80% of the time (my worthy estimation) just on his hunches. I really do not like those odds for where my vote wound up, so, I will watch the EMS situation going forward far more carefully, and I best not feel that I was conned ... ever. I trust Hood's hunches that much; maybe I slipped on this one, maybe not.

Years ago when I was a county commissioner, we did not have a county run EMS, so, I am having to get use to new things still that I am about 7 months into my new term here in Beaufort County. Remarkably, I find that I am still learning.
Commented: Friday, July 19th, 2019 @ 11:49 am By: Stan Deatherage
At the point in time for Beaufort County Government, my conservative estimate is that we spend about 21% too much of the county's treasury for our bureaucracy.

Commissioner Richardson is right to question everything at this point.

I was so hoping that "Head Fake" (my very own coined well considered name for Robert Francis O'Rourke) would have been the Democratic Socialist Candidate.

Thanks Cynthia for your well considered comment.

I do well appreciate that you understand that our best way forward is to employ the values of our past. No matter how flawed the United States may be, what nation is not(?), we are the World's greatest hope and have been for 78 years, since 1941.

This is some hilarious stuff.

Maybe it is my life's experience governing Beaufort County, but, county commissioners, often, "can say the darndest things".

Great subject matter Ted. Thanks for your minimalist view that many will read, and most will understand. You're really doing some good here.

Learning about governing in this pseudo body politic is admirable training; however, I hope they understand that the real world is all very different.

Thanks Diane.

It's just common sense, that the more agrarian states should have more proportionate power since we are closer to the land.

Being closer to the land is truly a far different reality than stuck in cities and suburbs, where using the land, knowing the land, paying taxes on the land is a necessity.

Diane, what you whipped up here in a matter of minutes, which is your prolific custom, would make an outstanding post on the perspective of Limited Government, with the Electoral College as an allegorical necessity.
Commented: Thursday, July 4th, 2019 @ 3:10 pm By: Stan Deatherage
From my perspective, I love the Electoral College, and believe it to be one of our Founders greatest creations.

Anytime any power can be removed from the mob mentality that motivates the less informed among us, even ever so slightly, it is a good thing for America.

I like to think it also aids in my vote counting just a wee bit more than others that do not take the democratic process seriously, and the necessity of knowing what is real, which, sadly, there are far too many.

And you use it well.

In these days with all these pseudo Social Justice wannabes, it is far better to laugh than cry.

Just last night, on local Talk Radio, Amy Kremmer went was employed to attack Joan Perry ad nauseam, while boosting the star of Vidant's own Dr. Greg Murphy.

The show certainly made an impression on me.
Commented: Wednesday, June 26th, 2019 @ 9:47 pm By: Stan Deatherage
I am truly sorry to hear this from Diane; someone I unequivocally trust.

Ms. Kremer may mean well, but, to expound upon your works by appropriating the good and better works of others is not only unethical, but fraudulent if you are only selling yourself as the product.
