@ProfD Maybe not, but they do have mail-in votes to count. I heard it on the news so it must be true.

************************************************************************************ @daniellegfny That was a real nail biter last night. I couldn't believe it got as close as it did. Did you see the dummies at CNN and MSNBC trying to act like the mayoral race in NYC was something that anyone was interested in. They just keep on embarrassing themselves further. What a bunch of fools. Terry McDumbDumb ran one of the worst campaigns in history when he declared that parents should not have a say in what goes on at their children's schools. I don't even have any children in school and that pissed me off. I could only imagine what the parents in Virginia must have thought. There's still votes to be counted, so I wouldn't be surprised if the democrats pull up with a truckload of mail-in ballots on Friday. ************************************************************************************

@OURROYAL BLACKGOLD It looks like all your lame posts were for naught. And BTW, Obama has no clout campaigning for people and Harris is a disaster.

His message box is probably full. You know how it is when you don't have time to be bothered reading your messages on your forum. Try sending him an email instead.

************************************************************************************ @ProfD Do people even try to know their neighbors anymore? It seems to me that most everybody has been keeping to themselves, even before COVID started. Besides that, many families seem to be estranged from each other, where the adult siblings are squabbling over inheritances, or fighting about who will take care of their elderly parents. The adult children are not trying to help their parents at all, and the parents do not want to be bothered with the adult children because the parents do not approve of the children's lifestyle choices or other reasons. From what I can tell, people are not looking out for each other at all. Have you noticed this, or is it just me? ************************************************************************************

I was not angry you silly bird!!! Oh @Pioneer1 if you are gonna take a break, just go. No need to be all dramatical about it. Wait. Don’t. Go. Come. Back. Where. Will. I. Go. What. Will. I. Do??? Don’t. Go!!! Pioneer is NOT revolting, you jealous bird!!!

@Troy I see what you were looking at on that author's page, but those are not the links I was referring to since I didn't even look at all of that. When you asked me to show you a page that had outgoing links, I looked at 10-15 different author pages to find one that had them. By the time I found that page that had links on it, I wasn't trying to dig all through that man's profile page to see whether he had inactive links on there. I don't know if you recall, but years ago you asked me to develop websites/myspace pages for your authors, so I'm fairly certain that you thought I knew how to make hyperlinks along with all the other coding it takes to set that up. While I think that you are fantastic, sometimes you are just a PITA like most men. You need to work on that.

************************************************************************************ @Pioneer1 I promise you that Crypto mining is not that complicated. And you are just as smart or even smarter than the Crypto people I have seen at YouTube and Reddit. I researched for a couple of weeks until I found a system that will work for me and that I am comfortable with. I did not want those GPUs that run hot, make noise, and use excessive amounts of electricity. I purchased my Crypto mining unit on Thursday night and the company phoned me on Friday morning to inform me that the unit has shipped and that they would help me set it all up once I receive it. Maybe they called me because I'm a woman and they assumed that I'm not technical. Or maybe it was because of the amount of money that I spent. Either way, I will be happy with whatever help they offer. I am reading a book about this particular Crypto miner because I want to maximize my profits. Other than that, it seems straightforward and easy to understand. If you are not comfortable dealing with Crypto currency or mining Crypto, that is alright. There are other ways for you to earn income from home. You will need to research until you find something that works for you, something that makes you comfortable, and that will generate the income that is worth your time and effort. That is all that matters. ************************************************************************************

************************************************************************************ @Pioneer1 I liked that movie as well, but the struggles such as the image you posted of them sleeping in public restrooms were hard to watch. The real life Chris Gardner should have had a better plan. But things happen in life, we all know that, and we deal with things as best we can. I’m currently developing content on the topics of work at home home-based business making money online franchise opportunities side hustles and passive income I may post more about this here, and in the meanwhile I will continue researching and trying out some of these methods myself to see if they actually generate income. Tomorrow I will take delivery of my very first Crypto miner. I investigated thoroughly until I found a system that will work the best for me. I am super excited about this and will let you all know how it goes. Stay strong everybody! ************************************************************************************

************************************************************************************ @Pioneer1 and @ProfD Working or running a business from home has lots of benefits. The main thing that people don't consider is that IT COSTS MONEY TO GO TO WORK. When most people get ready to retire, the thought of living on less income scares them, but they don't think about how much they spend going to work every day. As you mentioned there are clothing expenses, dry cleaning, transportation, automobile expenses, car insurance, lunches and other meals, snacks, drinks, incidental expenses, contributions to office funds, coffee funds, gift funds, etc. You know how it is, every time you turn around you're spending money on something. Most of those expenses are eliminated when you work from home. One thing that people don't think of is that you can reduce your car insurance costs if you don't drive your car on a daily basis. You need to call your agent and let them know your driving habits have changed and you can often get a reduction on your insurance rates. Other expenses will increase, for example your electric bill will be higher since you'll probably have the TV and other electronics running throughout the day, and you will use more of the other items around your house like hand soap. But when you eat or drink something out of your refrigerator, it is cheaper than buying something while you are out of the house. Making your own schedule, taking breaks when you need to, eating when you're hungry, taking a nap, caring for your family, and just being in your own home is much better than being out there in the rat race. And earning income while you're doing your own thing, plus the additional benefit of having some peace of mind is priceless. ************************************************************************************

@ProfD It is very difficult to start a new political party but what you CAN do, as an individual, is form a PAC/Super PAC. That requires some funding also, but not nearly as much.

************************************************************************************ @Pioneer1 We do NOT think independently, if we did we wouldn't have dopey Joe Biden in the White House, with all the mess that he has caused our nation and our community. People were so happy to get rid of Trump, saying silly things like how they would gladly pay more taxes just to get someone else. Well, now we have that someone else and our lives are all messed up because of it. We have the higher taxes, inflation, higher crime, food shortages, and a whole bunch of other mess we have not had in our lifetime until Obama's sidekick came along to do what he does best - F*ck everything up. Then there's that cackling hen Vice President of his, she seems to think every awful or serious issue is something to laugh about. She's supposedly Black but have you seen her doing anything for the Black community? What was the point of demanding he have a Black VP when she wasn't going to do anything for us anyway. Black people are so friggen gullible. We are the main ones to suffer when a gazillion border jumping immigrants enter our nation and start doing the work that we used to do, but for less pay than what we were scraping by with before. I disagree with having our own communities because this will only attract a bunch of losers who will wait to see what others are going to do. We need to blend into the communities that we are already in and do the best we can for ourselves. Our community as a whole needs to smarten up, and get our priorities in order. ************************************************************************************

@Pioneer1 They do the same thing at every election and people keep falling for it over and over again. Biden hasn't met with any type of Black leadership that I have seen. Even Trump met with some Black leaders by this point into his term. Black people need to vote in their best interest, not because that's who their momma used to vote for. Besides that, the Democrats and Republicans have completely changed. The Democrats are the party of the rich and famous, and the Republicans are the party of the working class now. I don't know when it changed, but the parties are totally different than they were twenty years ago.

************************************************************************************ @Pioneer1 Whenever I talk to anyone on the phone lately, at a business or a government agency, I always ask them if they are working from home. And they always say, "Yes." I also hear crying babies, barking dogs, doorbells ringing and all the other noises that emanate from inside people's homes. I am curious to know what you see in the future. Do tell. ************************************************************************************

@Troy Are you quite alright? Because I'm really starting to worry about you. Do you see the image below. That's not clickable. If you go to the Author's page on the link that is posted directly below this comment I am typing right here, on that Author's page, where it says "BLOG POST COMMUNICATION AND AVAILABILITY" that is a clickable link that goes to an external website. It is located towards the top of the page where it says "AUTHOR UPDATES" This is on a desktop view. It will not display like this on a phone device. https://www.am*zon.com/Joshua-D-Nelson/e/B00JHPHXFY/ref=dp_byline_cont_pop_ebooks_1

Right!!! Vote for the candidate that says parents shouldn't have a say about what their children are taught in school.

@Pioneer1 Lots of people are working from home or making money online. I don't know what the statistics are, but many people that were working for governments/corporations are working from home for those same entities, especially during COVID lockdowns. And you have probably heard that some corporations are going to keep their employees working from home. Most online courses are pre-recorded videos, webinars, and/or downloadable course materials. If it's repetitive, nobody is going over the same topics when they can just make a video and sell that, perhaps with an upgrade of personal tutor sessions, or some other type of consultation. I'm not saying that anybody can start a business online, work from home, or figure out how to generate passive income or even active income, but they can try to do something because that is the future.

@Troy The U.S. has a process for immigrants to enter our nation. It involves applications, criminal background checks, and fees. I know that you know this already, I am just saying. Whenever these parents complain about being separated, my feeling is that they could be together wherever they came from, and that is where they should have stayed until they could come here legally. All these people crossing illegally are eventually going to be deported. And their raggedy children, too. BTW I don’t care if they are Caucasoids, Negroids, Asoids or Mexoids, enter here legally or not at all.

Fort Knox still has the gold but Nixon ended our currency being backed by that gold and now it is backed by the FULL FAITH AND TRUST of the U.S. Government. The gold at Fort Knox probably is not enough to cover the value of all the currency that is in circulation anyway. All this printing of worthless money is another reason that I am concerned about our debt to China. I am also worried that our economy could collapse at any time.

Why does everything need to turn into an argument with you. I posted a link to the author page, and on that author page there are links to the author’s website. They are clickable hyperlinks. I am a web developer, I don’t need any lessons on hyperlinks from you. Further, that page displays differently on a desktop than it does on an iphone or smartphone. Do you know about website responsiveness? Stop being childish and argumentative about every little thing. It’s no wonder you can’t keep a woman.

Yes, I read the article. How about the government compensate me for the PTSD I have suffered from all these border jumpers breaking the law and entering this country illegally. IMO, these people are entitled to NOTHING.
