Some people might be somewhat upset. If it happened, well, it ain’t the first time a federal fella got whupped down south… (I tried to find the clip from Oh Brother where the kid fires a warning shot and brags  “Ah winged the census man”. Alas! No find.

 Anyway this might be true:

Thanks!

On river I punctiliously observed the COLREG, including signals. It was amusing, as nobody else knew them. Signal “astern” (3 long blasts) leaving marina, or whatever, just got me dirty looks. That feller is a very sound sleeper! 🙂  🙂  I used to lay bouys and hoist appropriate (black ball) when anchored so fellas wouldn’t run over the lines, they did it anyway. Then there was the time some fella trying to dock started yelling to the near naked girl on the bow “drop the anchor!” She did. Ok, now what? She asked. Pull on the rope!  He yelled.  Rope?  Yup, the rode and the anchor kersplash. Cute girl though.

I have no idea why he wanted to drop it, he was almost in the slip, but didn’t understand wind and current. Hours later we grappelled it up and took it to the office.

Those were very fine days.

Ukrainian sappers sent notes in mines to Russian positions

The sappers found them with safety pins still in, and when they took the fuses out, the found some of them with notes saying “Russians, forgive us.” “That is, the mines were not activated on purpose,” said a Russian soldier.

Remarking...they say that the Iranian “payloads” at the colonial nazi airstrips included fragmentation type bangers… in a modern jet even one ittybitty hole can spell “no-workie”…so every airplane must be inspected with diligence.  Takes some time. The zions wanna whack Iran, and their airplanes are their primary means to do that. Thus I speculate that one reason for delay is the inspections and repairs, or maybe 😉 replacements. I recall that spare parts for F35 tend to be “just in time”, ie not properly stocked ahead of time…and even if they are, did the parts department get whacked? 😉

Political Collapse: Lessons From Fallen Empires
By Richard E. Blanton, Gary M. Feinman, Stephen A. Kowalewski, and Lane F. Fargher-Navarro

Fragment/excerpt>

Our investigation of the disastrous society-wide collapses of four premodern polities, China’s Ming Dynasty, the South Asian Mughal Empire, the High Roman Empire, and Renaissance Venice led to the discovery of an unexpected historical pattern. This revelation was not evident before these sudden collapses as all four polities had demonstrated forms of governance that persisted for centuries, had been among the wealthiest and best-governed polities of their eras, and had embraced policies fostering inclusiveness and egalitarianism that engendered strong support from the majority of their citizens.

We could not identify any exogenous causal factors for the collapses—such as drought, epidemic, or conquest by a more powerful foe (three of the four eventually were conquered, but only after their governments were considerably weakened)—adding to our confusion about what led to these major political transformations.

To understand the reasons for the political breakdowns, we decided to revisit an earlier article in which we had posited an answer to this question when it became increasingly clear to us that the conflictive political culture of the contemporary U.S. presents striking parallels with what we had discovered. We aim to reexamine our article to bring a comparative perspective on historically well-known episodes of collapse, their causes, and negative outcomes, and to alert U.S. citizens of the potential dangers we face, so we can highlight the need to take urgent corrective actions. We begin by referring to recent works by political scientists and anthropologists that provided theoretical context for our arguments.

Collective Action Theory Expands Our Understanding of Governance

In all four instances, collapse followed quickly after the leaders of these polities inexplicably and suddenly abandoned principles and practices that had successfully underpinned state-building and social stability. Their actions initiated a cascading series of events that brought a rapid decline in many aspects of society, which extended beyond the government. But why would the actions of just a few people have such severe consequences for otherwise endurable and well-organized polities?

and so on….
