Potstickers! I was in Shoprite earlier and saw some house brand...

Potstickers in the freezer. So I got some, along with some pierogis on sale.

Potstickers were as good as the local Chinese place, but I suddenly realized I had no dunking sauce. I did have a jar of Chipotle pepper which worked sorta OK.

Antitank obstacles and weapons have been around since tanks. Some of the best are...

big ditches and mines. Bazookas work pretty well most of the time, too, 'specially if the tank isn't armored all that well.

But, for civilian defense, the old fashioned toothy tank trap will do OK slowing them down.

Here's how, from one of our homegrown gun types:

Anybody see this about the orange gasbag? He really should not be allowed out alone..

Trump: Well I think the whole thing again would have never happened, it shouldn’t happen, and it’s a very sad thing, but you know what’s also very dangerous is you told me about the amphibious attack by Americans. You shouldn’t be saying that, because you and everybody else shouldn’t know about it. They should do that secretly, not be doing that through the great Laura Ingraham. They should be doing that secretly […]

Ingraham: No […] those are the Russians amphibious landings.

Trump: I thought you said that we were sending people in […]

Ingraham: No, I did not […] that would be news!

When rumors of Jesty’s “bold experiment” spread, the reaction was brutal. The upstanding farmer became the target of vicious attacks from neighbors who were appalled that he had experimented on his own family.

Jesty was pelted and jeered whenever he ventured into the village market. Such was the sentiment that when a local doctor hinted a similar idea, objections were so intense that he nearly lost his practice.

I just made a booster appt for this Friday at a local CVS...

I was hospitalized in December, which means I had to wait for a while, and then the snowstorms slowed things down, but everything's back to normal now.

CVS seems to have the most booster locations, and you can find a link at cvs.com, but if there's nothing around you, or you just hate CVS, try:
