I dreamt last night that I was in Toronto and someone cut my brake lines.

I awoke from a dream this morning in which I was here in DC; I parked my car downtown and took a walk in order to do some sort of errand and then go to work; I realized that there was a large, violent rally starting to assemble, and I was worried both for myself and for my car; and that somehow, “the Andy Griffith show“ was the key to solving the entire problem.

If this generation had grown up watching Andy Griffith they would not act like this.

I've been seeing the Omega letter used with the flag as the decoration, like this: 


Does anyone have any clue what this is? It relates to the resistance, but I have no idea how.

You mean letting the police have one bullet they carry in their pocket?/////

Defund the Police thinks one bullet is too many!

Omega symbol is used to designate Ohms, electrical resistance.

As for my dreams, I had two bad ones:

In the first, I was an executioner, shooting people. One woman insisted she couldn't be killed - and couldn't. I was asking for a wooden stake by the end.

The next one, some woman was trying to kill me with some small device, and I was trying to stop her, only people didn't believe me and wanted me to go back in the room with her.

How sad is it that I didn't even think about that usage? Sheesh. Take away my geek card.

Reminds me of a story I heard about how a grad student in economics at MIT started a class that involved differentials, and had to ask "What do the d's mean?"

Obviously, his undergrad work was not at MIT.

(For those here who didn't take or don't remember calculus, in differential calculus, the change in y for a given change in x is written

dy
dx

This generally is an expression. For example, if y=x2

dy = 2x
dx

So, the student obviously had not had calculus.

Back off, Antifa.  Ted Wheeler has a strongly worded statement, and he’s not afraid to use it.

I disagree. Shut down legislators. We can live with the laws we have now.
