Riding motorcycles is at the top of my list, followed by reckless road bikers.

With the weather good again they are out and about. The motorcycles flying down the interstate and the road bikers doubled up on twisty two-lane roads.
I don’t get it.

I’ve got the usual truck manual, registration card and a jump pack.

Tacos look like this:



Also every so often one looks like this:



but rarely, they sometimes look like this:

1. President Joe Biden has given Ukraine the go-ahead to use American weaponry to strike inside Russia for the limited purpose of defending Kharkiv.

2. the U.S. policy calling on Ukraine not to use American-provide long-range missiles and other munitions to strike inside Russia offensively has not changed.

Somebody please reconcile those 2 positions for me. They make my brain hurt.

Here for the a George Strait/Chris Stapleton show. 45 minutes to get in. Beer guys losing connection to the wifi so they can't run cards or take cash.

Just some real little brother garbage. It's funny that several of their fans have questioned my audacity to wear a Hawkeye shirt. We at least have beer sales figured out.

Garbage stadium. Garbage fan base. Hopefully a decent show.

Who will be attending the first string of dates, who's on offer watch, what their recruitments have looked like so far, and more.

STORY:

This is a thread mostly for our MAGATS. Come on out. Why is Tom Hanks made out to be a pedo on X and why is he guzzling down Adrenochrome (wtf that is)?

As far as I know, he's a great actor, has one sane and one loony kid, and used to make excellent movies.

The longer the war goes on, the worse for Biden.

Seven more months takes the war just past our 2024 election.

Coincidence?

Just wrapped up talking with Payton. Here's a quick clip from it:

Story coming shortly.

And the verdict is Casey's pizza is the best pizza! Voted on by me! Lol

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA/Gray News) – A freak boating accident has changed an Alabama woman’s life forever.

On May 15, Nikki Goodman was on a boat with her husband heading out to Gravine Island near Mobile, Alabama, for a day of fun in the sun.

They had just left the Chickasaw boat launch and were anticipating a great day.

“I was laying out in the sun, he was fishing, you know, having a relaxing day,” Goodman said.

Suddenly, their boat malfunctioned, and the unthinkable happened.

“All of a sudden, the hydraulic cable breaks that goes to the steering, so when it broke, the boat just started spinning and it immediately threw us off [the boat],” Goodman said.

In the chaos, the boat’s propeller sliced Goodman’s legs. Her husband made it back on to the boat, but he couldn’t find her until she began yelling for help.

“I was just like, ‘Help me, my legs are going numb, I can’t feel my legs,’ but my leg was already gone,” she said.

To her horror, her left leg was completely gone, cut off right above the knee. Her right leg was severely damaged.

In shock, her husband pulled her back onto the boat and grabbed any items in sight to stop the bleeding. Miraculously, Goodman said she never lost consciousness.

“Bungee cords, whatever we had on the boat, he started tying them to my legs to stop the bleeding,” Goodman said.

Fortunately, another boat was passing by at the time. The two good Samaritans on board stopped to help.

“It was a man and woman, and I would love to find them and thank them because they helped save my life. They were already on the phone with 911. He immediately got on the boat with my husband and started helping him. I don’t want to shake his hand. I want to hug his neck and I just want to say thank you,” she said.

Meanwhile, as people head out for Memorial Day celebrations, Goodman has an urgent message for boaters.

“People just need to take that extra time and that extra dollar to make sure their equipment is up to par because they don’t want to experience what I’ve experienced,” she said. “Wear your life jackets. I did not have my life jacket on, we did not have them on. Wear your life jackets, even if you’re just cruising.”

In the meantime, Goodman has a long road to recovery as she prepares for physical therapy and gets fitted for a prosthetic leg.


A GoFundMe page has been set up to help with medical expenses.

“Donate to the GoFundMe, and if you can’t, just pray for us,” she pleaded.

Finally, Goodman said she hopes her story inspires others.

“If anyone thinks God isn’t real, they need to look at me. Even if nobody donates a dollar to help us – if I can impact somebody, touch somebody’s life, that’s great,” she said.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s Republican Gov. Mike DeWine said Thursday that he is calling a rare special session of the General Assembly next week to pass legislation ensuring that President Joe Biden is on the state’s 2024 ballot.

The special session was called for Tuesday.

“Ohio is running out of time to get Joe Biden, the sitting President of the United States, on the ballot this fall. Failing to do so is simply unacceptable. This is ridiculous. This is (an) absurd situation,” DeWine said.

The question of whether Biden will appear on the ballot has become entangled in a partisan legislative fight to keep foreign money out of state ballot campaigns, a year after cash tied to a Swiss billionaire boosted a successful effort to enshrine abortion rights in the solidly red state’s constitution.

The Democratic National Convention, where Biden is to be formally nominated, falls after Ohio’s ballot deadline of Aug. 7. The convention will be held Aug. 19-22 in Chicago

Just saw an article saying the University is conducting an independent review on the women’s gymnastics team and Libby has been placed on administrative leave. Does anyone know what’s going on with the GymHawks?

A perfect representation of this administration.

$320 million down the drain.. still better than giving it to terrorists like biden did in Afghanistan I suppose. Wait, that's what he was doing to begin with 😬

Iowa track and field competed in the NCAA West Preliminary meet last weekend in Arkansas and put together a successful weekend, qualifying five Hawkeyes to the NCAA championship meet. Mike Stein qualified for the NCAA Championships with a 74.78m javelin toss, Rivaldo Marshall qualified in the men's 800m, finishing third at the meet in 1:46.96 to earn an automatic bid, Jordan Johnson earned a trip to Eugene with a 58.22m discus throw, Paige Magee ran a 13.01 100m hurdle to finish 13th and earn a spot at the NCAA Championships, and Austin West qualified in the Men's decathlon.

Elsewhere, Iowa baseball concluded their season with a pair of heartbreaking extra-inning losses in the Big Ten Tournament. Brody Brecht was again solid on the mound, but offensive struggles and a few tough breaks ultimately downed the Hawks.

You can follow along with all things Hawkeye sports here.

President Biden defended his economic record Wednesday, citing a recent consumer sentiment report that he said backs him up.

His green-eyeshade defense using a university report was not the sort of sales pitch many Democratic candidates preferred from Biden, who visited Racine, Wis., a battleground state that may decide next year’s Oval Office occupant. Trump won Wisconsin by one point in 2016 and Biden won the state by a point in 2020.

The president, comparing his policies with those of former President Trump, rejected polls that show that voters trust Trump on the economy more than they trust Biden.

During an interview with CNN, the president was hard pressed to construct an accessible story about how his economic policies are affecting real Americans.

“We’ve already turned it around,” Biden said from Wisconsin. “The polling data has been wrong all along.”

In an unusual concession about an election-year vulnerability, he added that polls show voters “think the nation’s not in good shape, but [they think] they’re personally in good shape.”

Biden recommended voters “look at the markets’” for reactions to the recent 1.6 percent gross domestic product report for the first quarter, which indicated a slowing economy. Cooling indicators of output are expected to lower inflationary pressures. Democratic presidents for eons have argued that Wall Street bets are not the real economy; Main Street holds the tape measure.

Voters complain about inflation, rising gas prices, high interest rates, unaffordable housing costs and the sticker shock of college tuition. Voters gauge the health of any economy relying on what they see and experience. They blame incumbent presidents when they’re anxious, and they look to political challengers when they’re shopping for change.

Even some of Biden’s closest allies and surrogates have conceded that his economic sales pitch to Americans “is a work in progress.” Election Day is six months away.

Former President Bill Clinton, who transformed George H.W. Bush into a one-term president amid a recession, told an audience two months after his inauguration, “I’d a lot rather get beat trying to put people to work than get beat fighting putting people to work.”

Biden conceded Wednesday that voters have many reasons for worrying their purchase power and their economic well-being have eroded. But he said 15 million jobs have been created during his term and wages are higher. He criticized Trump as invested in the wealthy, not the middle class, and as a spinner of economic promises, many of them illusions

I don't know how legit 'Rico Bo$co' is, but I very much hope he is - at least on this.
