::sigh::

I probably need to check my internet upload speed on these huge threads here, then do nothing about it.

Sometimes they don't double-post, so I'm not gonna sweat it too much.

Looks like it's a Firefox issue.

My last two posts were on Chrome, and didn't double up.

Mystery solved, I guess

I use firefox, no double ups. however, in the past there were occasional doubles.
It could be the connection. Not necessarily your connection but dxp. that is, dxp is stored
on a very slow server computer. I think this because even after building my new system and
the fact I have a fast cable connection, dxp will still load slow. SO........... blame dxp.

So today at work I'm googling for info about the pilot who ISIS burned alive

One of my co-workers says "jeeeeeze...yur so morbid!"

And I'm like well yeah, I am.

But I cry a little for these people I know nothing about. And some people I know very well - I don't care about them at all.

As for the people aboard the aircraft, it's tragic, but I am not feeling shock and awe or any sense of overwhelming abysmal sadness. Ever since the Pan-Am/KLM disaster on Tenerife, in the late 70s, I don't think I have ever felt a lot of intense emotions. In fact, I didn't feel emotions, then. I was actually quite fascinated that I presented the tragedy to my 4th grade class during show-and-tell.

At the time, I was building model aircraft and would demonstrate as thoroughly as I could
how the KLM had impacted the Pan-Am. How bodies and chairs and mangled wreckage flew.
As a 4th grader, I felt the other 4th graders should know. Below is a documentary of the carnage.
It is quite clear that the KLM pilot was partly to blame, as were the take-off procedures of the time, were flawed plus a string of other negative contributing factors, to boot.

Sequence of Events:

Sajida al-Rishawi, whose device failed to detonate in a string of otherwise deadly terror attacks at Jordanian hotels in 2005, was sentenced to death for that attempt, and Jordan executed her early Wednesday.

The militants claimed they captured al-Kasasbeh after he ejected from the crashing of his F-16 on December 24. The pilot was part of the U.S.-led coalition airstrikes near ISIS' de-facto capital, Raqqa.

"In response, Jordan executed two prisoners -- Sajida al-Rishawi, a would-be suicide bomber whose release ISIS had previously demanded as part of a prisoner exchange, and Ziad Karbouli, a former top aide to the deceased leader of al Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi."

Something's going on there that nobody's talkin' about.

Bruce Jenner reportedly told police he was being chased by paparazzi when he crashed his Escalade into another car on the Pacific Coast Highway, triggering a fatal multi-vehicle accident on Saturday. The unidentified female driver of the white car into which Jenner slammed is believed to have been the person who died in the chaos.

His fucking "Transition Journey" makes me wanna puke, too

Scorpio Rising

"Where there's a will, there's a way"

Sensuous, alluring, mysterious, she is the predator of the Zodiac. She's not afraid of life or death, and therefore the most exotic man in the room won't phase her. She'll go after what she wants from life with the strategy of a general, the daring of a skydiver. If, upon meeting her, she doesn't lock eyes with you, chances are that you, even at your most enticing best, won't get to first base. She's the steam from fire and ice, the allure of musk, the sexual chemist. She has the power to take you to the depths of despair and send you soaring back to ecstacy. She can read your mind, leave you in a sexual stupor, solicit your secrets, and yet you may not know her past, her friends, her family. She doesn't invite you over for roast dinners, ot to sleep on cotton sheets. She is love potions, smoked oysters, and fur rugs before crackling fires. She is screaming fights and stupendous lovemaking. When she mates she wants it to be for life. She'll stop at nothing to defend you, to honor you, and to stand by you. Infidelities on your part are simply out of the question. While she has the strongest endurance of the Rising Signs, your involvement with another woman may leave her shattered and nearly beyond repair. Temporarily. She'll recover, mumble curses about your grave, and rise again. Her will power is a magnificent thing.

General Life Tendencies

This woman has the strongest physical body of the Zodiac in terms of resistance to illness. As if attempting to test her robustness, mother nature usually gives her a health crisis that she is able to overcome at some point in her life. She's just as fixed when it comes to her marriage - this woman will be one of the most determined to make hers work. She works hard for her success and it usually comes in the second half of her life. She's forever transforming herself, and has most likely had an unusual early family environment.

SMH,

"As of right now, there is no indication that Bruce Jenner was being chased by paparazzi at the time of the crash," Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Lt. John Lecrivain said.

Between that statement, above, and the pictures, the conclusion that I am presently coming to
is that Jenner's goofy-stupid "transition journey" had gone to his whatever and a life has been
lost. Foul, selfish, or stupid and clumsy behavior doesn't end until someone gets hurt, or worse. Even then, that end may not be a guarantee that the stupidity will stop:

Beside potential criminal consequences, Jenner's civil liability may be so severe that he
becomes financially ruined. - Don't be surprised if his troubles, just now beginning, ends in suicide.

Those pics of him crashing into that car is just creepy, especially the way they keep being fed to keep the story exciting. Like the close up of his hand to reveal a cigarette, not a phone
