100% beans. Pinto beans. 8 hour cold water soak, then 10 minutes in the Instant Pot. They're high in fiber, low in fat, betcha didn't know that!

#Hamradio stuff: nice to log two new DXCC "countries" this week. I am not a "paper chaser", but LotW turned me on to DXCC and I now have 128 confirmed mixed/digital (not counting some old QSL cards I probably ought to dig up)

BTW I love, love, LOVE the Lalo Schifrin soundtrack. I know he was all over TV and films in the late 1960s and... I miss it. I wish it would come back a bit, someone new in the same vein.

I might be exaggerating a bit, maybe only 4-5 hubcaps come-off the Charger, but it still has 3 hubcaps at the end.

Also, at 4:40, Steve McQueen is thinking "wish I had a Posi rear-end"

BTW how many hubcaps do you count coming-off the Charger? I think I see 10.

Thank you, @joshmankiewicz.bsky.social for mentioning Steve McQueen. I had to watch the Bullitt chase again (twice).

Someday I'll figure-out what the plot (if any) of the movie is.

The officers hate transporting to jail, the time, the forms, etc. So a non-DUI speeder with no warrants is likely to get cited and released, even if charged with a misdemeanor

CHP is chasing that guy in the car I'd been pacing. Two miles later, has him pulled-over. Lucky day for young me. That VF1100S was one fast bike.

Back in the days of 55-saves-lives, I was on a Honda VF1100S pacing someone at 135MPH for miles on I-5. Somewhere around Buttonwillow, we hit traffic. CHP pulls up next to me and says "Thanks for slowing that motorcycle down", takes off 1/2

California Vehicle Code has long made speed in excess of 100MPH a misdemeanor (punishable by up to 364 days in county jail and/or $1000 fine + fees).

It’s sad that this 5 year old video is still relevant today.

The Curtains Close on the Kristi Noem Show As Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem was obsessed with cameras, and her downfall began when ICE abuses, including the killing of two American citizens, went viral.

"She will be remembered not only as the most incompetent Secretary in the department’s twenty-three-year history but also as the person who succeeded where many progressive activists had failed in discrediting much of the D.H.S.’s institutional legitimacy."

Russia told Trump it did not share US military asset intel with Iran, says president’s envoy – US politics live Steve Witkoff says denial came during phone call that US president had with Russian president Vladimir Putin on Monday

Of course, the Russians/Putin are SO trustworthy. We're living in a post-honesty era.

U.S. judge voids 2025 actions taken by Kari Lake as Voice of America CEO, including job cuts The judge ruled that Lake was ineligible to serve as acting CEO because she was not employed by the U.S. Agency for Global Media when the former CEO resigned in January 2025.

Here's hoping this restores VOA operations. @newsguy.bsky.social

For years, no one believed me when I told them Space Ghost was doing voice overs for 98.5 (WNCX)

They said I was crazy! As if I wouldn't recognize George Lowe, Andy Merrill, or C. Martin Croker literally any time I heard them lol

I'd recognize those voices before my own mother's
