#BREAKING
White House senior adviser Jared Kushner hinted on Friday that Saudi Arabia could be the next Arab nation to reach a historic peace agreement with Israel. My take: #Iran, watching closely, will redouble efforts to help Biden win in November.
One reason WI and MN polls show Biden with a lead is because much of northern and rural parts of WI & MN don’t have broadband- in other words, Trumps voters don’t get polled.
This is why Hillary had a “6% lead” in the polls on Election Day but lost WI. Trump has missing voters.— Bruce Stanford (@brhstanford) September 11, 2020
Exactly. I've always liked James Gardner.
Here is a strange story - I lived in the dorms my first year of UCLA in 1981 & went to stay with my sister in Dallas for the summer. I couldn't live in the dorms the second year. When I got back, the roommates who were supposed to save me a room in their apartment. already had a roommate, so I was desperate to find a place & cheap.
I ended up finding a room close to Beverly Hills. It was only $400 / month, which sounded great in the newspaper ad. What it turned out to be was a room on the second floor of a post-op recovery place for plastic surgery patients. After their surgery they would stay on the first floor to recover for a few days & on the second floor there were about 5 of us renting out very small rooms. It was very clean & a secure building & cheap, so it worked for me.
Apparently, there were many wealthy people who stayed below and occasional stars. However, you could never tell who they were because their faces would be all bandaged up from the surgery.
Back to James Garner. One week I got word ahead of time that he was coming in & sure enough he showed up. Again, I couldn't tell who he was when he came in, but I happened to be downstairs when he left & ran into him while he was sitting there waiting for the car to pull up. I talked to him for a minute or two.
I'm not really a star-struck person, but I was always a fan of his for a long time.
Love James Garner!
I for one am not going to lose any sleep over this one.
Tks. some days it just seems like I fall into stuff..

This is in Utah.
Nearest city is Moab.
Yes this picture at #3321 that you posted last night is what I saw of the rally in Michigan. But you and Lakeside Granny earlier posted a nighttime meme showing a lighted overhang structure and everyone seemed to be looking that way. So was that the over crowd? But I saw no TV’s in that picture. It had me confused as to calling it Michigan cause it looked nothing like what I was seeing live.

We have collected five different examples of outdoor arson that have occurred in the past few weeks across Oregon, Washington and California.
#1. Police arrested a man for arson over Sweet Creek Fires. Lane County Police announcement. Oregonian notes “A 44-year-old man was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of arson in a wildfire that has burned nearly 400 acres and prompted evacuations west of Eugene, deputies say”
#2. Police in Washington arrested a man who was caught setting a brush fire. fire in the brush along SR-167. Police were forced to close the northbound ramp on the highway.
#3. Ashland Police suspect arson for Almeda fire. NY Times reports: “Three law enforcement agencies in Oregon, including the Ashland Police Department and the State Police, said they had opened an arson investigation for the Almeda Fire
#4. Arson arrest in Spokane, WA: KHQ-TV 6 News is reporting that police have arrested a woman for multiple arson incidencies; “According to Spokane Police, Officer Mohondro arrived on scene he saw some grass and a pallet on fire outside of a commercial business… The same officer spotted another fire a few blocks away. SPD said the fire was next to an old oil drum under a tree which gave the fire the potential to explode into something much larger was very high.”
#5. Arson arrest in California fire: San Fransisco Chronicle reports, “Ivan Geronimo Gomez, 31, of Fresno was arrested and booked into Monterey County Jail on Aug. 19 after state park rangers detained him near the fire’s origin point, the Sheriff’s Office said.Sheriff’s detectives arrested him on suspicion of five charges, including arson of forestland, setting his bail at $2 million. Jail records list illegal marijuana cultivation as another charge, along with throwing objects at a vehicle with intent to cause great bodily harm, battery and exhibiting a deadly weapon that wasn’t a gun.”
Beware of false arson claims: Police are actively dispelling many dangerous false rumors about political groups, both left and right, intentionally setting fires. Please verify with a news source or original source before broadcasting any arson news in the middle of our wildfire crisis. These social media hoax articles contain law enforcement logos but are not law enforcement. 911 dispatchers say they are overwhelmed with people calling about fake arson rumors and questions.
— At time of print, the Taxpayer Association appears to be the only one compiling the list of suspected arson across the region. If you value this type of reporting then please support us.

I have family in Moab who happen to be visiting here right now.
I’ll ask them what they know of these fires.
This is crazy!!!
That’s a good story. Probably a bigger deal back then, since not everybody had a cell phone w/ a camera then.
It’s good when people who you admire (if that’s the right term) are nice & not jerks.
James Garner could have just blown me off. He was still wearing a small bandage & dark sunglasses, so I’m sure his face was still painful & I’m sure he was paying a pretty good price for the privacy of this place, but he put up with me. I didn’t hang out very long.
Deployed 17 times, Sgt. Maj. Payne received the Medal of Honor moments ago at the @WhiteHouse. His courage is as contagious to those watching the @POTUS present the medal as it was on the battlefield. pic.twitter.com/E3tRaEJgND— Dr. Mark T. Esper (@EsperDoD) September 11, 2020
I say most of these fires have been deliberately set. I remember reading years ago that setting fires and causing states to spend millions of dollars fighting them was one of their economical warfare tactics. Of course they were aided by the whackos who didn’t allow the cleaning up of the forest floors.
Thanks NIKK. Very informative.
