Did Ron usually sign stuff "Reagan Reagan"?


Two schools of thought on that:
1) Reagan was senile
2) He wasn't really happy to get a visit from Trump and wasn't paying attention or/and he wanted to show Trump how little he meant to the Ronnie.

Vancouver will eventually be powered/heated by gregors hot air/naturally produced gas

City’s gas plan generating concern and confusion

Except FortisBC is not in agreement with the city’s policy and says it is “misleading” for Jang to suggest that it can replace the natural gas it supplies Vancouver with some form of supernatural gas – “renewable natural gas” (RNG).

The methane (RNG) that it currently produces from two landfills and two agricultural waste facilities accounts for just one-quarter of 1% of the natural gas stream in B.C.

Getting to 100% from 0.25% for Vancouver would require roughly 100 landfills, and the cost of producing it would likely erase any cost advantage over heating with hydropower.

Speaking of Ollie North, his secretary Fawn Hall was pretty good looking if memory serves...

South Korean defence ministry spokesman Moon Sang-gyun called North Korea's statement a "provocative announcement" and told a regular news briefing that Pyongyang would face stronger sanctions if it were to launch an ICBM

I don't get it - what possible sanctions do we have left to levy on them that we haven't and why on fucking earth haven't we?

Like, how did it get to the point where a nation ran by a lunatic not only developed sophisticated nuclear weapons but is well on the road toward creating a delivery system capable of holding the world hostage Austin Powers style?

Long story short, China.

China is essentially keeping them afloat. China isn't the most well liked country in the area so they need all the help they can get. They know that if North Korea falls they'll almost certainly assimilate with South Korea, a huge ally of the US. On top of that, a couple of provinces in NE China have massive Korean populations that have a stronger attachment to Korea than China. It's in China's best interest to keep NK alive and well.

What's all this scuttlebutt and Trump and golden showers? At any rate, I did find the following on the interwebs...

Leeches use a form of pain reliever while feeding, but death by a 1,000 cut would work.
I think no amount of pain reliever would matter if the leeches are strategically placed.

Here's something for us to chew up a bit:

Worst highway bottlenecks, according to CAA - 680 NEWS

I can't speak to most of the out of town ones, but,

1) I can't believe the top of the DVP is only second, although that stretch of 401 is the dumbest lane system on earth (goes from 14 lanes to 8 lanes back to 12 lanes) and is pretty rough at most times of day, even on weekends. The top of the DVP is even worse, though - 6 lanes from the 404 merge into 3.

2) Los Angeles looks like hell to drive in.

3) I'm surprised the Hudson tunnel portals on each side aren't tops. Especially on the Manhattan side, that is some of the most disorganised shit I've ever seen.
