I might have to change when I do this, Tuesdays are starting to suck for me. Here’s the gif…

The part I am confused about the most, is that Cuba has an airline.
Yes, anyone that watched movies the past 20 years knows how this goes. When something American tries to appeal to the rest of the world, it suddenly appears unamerican.
Sounds like Petro kissed some serious booty.
Here’s a tune. Have a great Tuesday!

Speaking of fitness…
Glad you kept this place classy and didn’t go with “Speaking of starting to suck….”
That family friendly designation was removed a long time ago.
I’m betting I can fitness whole donut in my mouth.
is that Cuba has an airline.
The article doesn’t talk about Cubana but talks about Air Canada. Are you making a joke about Canada being an extension of Cuba and I missed it?
I took it as “If they have all those ’57 Chevys running around on the island… is the Cuban airline the last best stock of DC-3s?”
Cuba and Canada both start with a “C.”
And end in “A” plus both have a few letters in between and each has their own language
Yes! The conspiracy deepens!
And both were led by a Castro?
Zing!
My guess was why would there be any aviation fuel on the island unless they had their own airline.
Any jet arriving in Cuba will prefer to refuel in Cuba before returning home.
Canadian airlines are flying empty jets loaded with extra fuel to pick up stranded passengers and fly back home. Even still, they probably need to refuel before getting all the way home.
You can only carry so much weight for departure. More fuel onboard means fewer paying passengers or revenue-generating cargo.
I dunno…Canadians love vacationing in Cuba from my few Canuckians I know.
The quality of life probably reminds them of Canada.
Yes, by the prima nocta standards Canada was run by Castro. At least until the most recent election.
Next you’ll tell me DC dropped “… and the American way” from Superman or something in an attempt to be more globalist….
Can someone tell Al Jazeera that the Caribbean is not an Ocean, please?
And that it might be nice if you give something like how far off the nearest coastline and what country rather than “eastern Pacific”… I have to assume this was taken by us as a drug runner, so also assuming around a bit south of Panama… but who knows.
I can sea them making that mistake.
We Ned to keep drug runners at bay.
Most drug runners are not named Ned.
The US Southern Command, which oversees military operations in Latin America and the Caribbean, said the “lethal kinetic strike” was carried out on Monday against a vessel, which it alleged was involved in drug trafficking without providing any evidence.
A few paragraphs later:
SOUTHCOM released a 10-second video of the air strike on Monday. In the video, a small, motorised boat can be seen in the military’s crosshairs before it is hit, triggering an explosion seconds later.
I suppose that which can be seen with one’s own eyes could count as evidence, but then I’m not an “international legal scholar” or a “rights worker.”
I assume they meant the drug trafficking wasn’t proven, not that they struck the vessel.
And since I doubt these folks are sporting the Columbian Marching Powder Navy Jack or anything… I assume they’re probably right and the Coast Guard is probably playing the odds.
I’d personally prefer we radio any such vessels detected telling them to turn back or be blown up (maybe we are, but I don’t get that impression)… but at the same time, there are limits. If we know what smuggling boats look like, where they come from, etc… I can forgive the “this quacking, floating, bread eating bird just might be a duck” style of presumption here.
There was a Penn & Teller Bullshit! episode where they talked about the complaints they got for having so many topless women on the show. Their response was to have a show full of naked, middle-aged men.
There were no more complaints after that.
I think it was the ghosts episode and in the scene, they wondered why ghosts always have clothes rather than being naked. Does my shirt have a soul?
If ghosts are psychic echoes of self or memories of self then in the first case… most people are going to have a clothed self-image (other than Britney Spears or whatnot, I would think) and in the latter case they’re probably not roaming around naked in life either.
And as a middle aged man — well aware no one wants to see that. Of course, as a young man… didn’t think anyone wanted to see it either. Almost certainly a sign of being straight — but the female form has a natural beauty…. men… not so much. I’m sure Tonio can’t bear that sentiment.

Women in underwear – gah! Women in a string bikini barely covering anything – all good!
Our moving target on this makes a pretzel look like a straight edge.
Depends on the underwear good Sir!
Utah magic underwear would like to talk to you about Masonic symbols.
Well, there was the “Sex, Sex, Sex” episode, there was also the “Circumcision” episode, pretty sure both had plenty of gratuitous dick shots.
Yeah, there was the penis puppetry clip in one of those.
Gosh, doesn’t all that twisting and bending hurt, said Penn, as if he didn’t know.
Most artists have been men so they painted women, the most beautiful things they could see.

When they got tired of painting women, they painted landscapes, etc.
So they moved on to painting HUUUUGE….. tracts of land?
Yeah, the old guy trying to refashion a foreskin on his dong was forever seared into my brain.
Me too, rhy.
Second-most memorable, dihydrogen monoxide.
If there are ghosts, they’re just particles as unthinking as the smoke trailing off from a stick of burning incense. If anything, there should be more “ghosts” from living people since their brains are still actively exchanging charges.
Dwarfs pull down giants so that they dont feel so small.
The Catholics got it right when they put envy on the list of 7 deadly sins. It is pure poison and seems to be the most indulged in of all of them.
It is also what drives the rest of the world to hate us so much.
Coveting your neighbor’s wife’s ass is on the list for the same reason
What about her breasts? Is that on the list too?
Staying Latin themed my next Representative.

She’s our version of AOC.
That dead tooth is scary.
You can’t handle the tooth!
Obligatory.
DAYS.
Fuck you.
She beat an establishment Democrat.
I think it’s fair to conclude that the “establishment Democrat” is an extinct creature now.
They can’t be established as Communists now?
She worked for he’s got a dacha Bernie!
Is it really a “stunning upset” anymore when the Dems manage to field yet another far leftist?
Ahead of the meeting, Colombian officials said they planned to present the Trump administration with concrete details to demonstrate the country’s counter-narcotics effort, including cocaine and drug lab seizures.
“I [told] him you need to go after the kingpins,” Petro said. “The top tier of drug traffickers isn’t what you might imagine.”
Translation: We remember when the cartels picked off politicians, cops, and judges with near-impunity, and we don’t want to go through that again. It’s a fine line that we tread.
In the aftermath of the Spanish-American War, Puerto Rico was annexed, the Philippines were occupied, and Cuba was set free.
Americans…we always have had mixed feelings about empire.
Manifest Destiny?
Mmm, Greenland…….
A little O/T news from my house… I retested some more things at therapy today, and there is a marked improvement. Most are now in the normal range. It’s really shocking how bad I was just a few months ago. Therapy was 100% worth it, but the curious thing is I know lots of people that had concussions but none ever went to therapy for it. They have a whole clinic full of patients doing the same treatment I was doing, so clearly it’s a legit thing.
Meanwhile, oldest kid has been texting me and my SIL. She moved in with bio mom, bio brother, and two other people, but bio mom just passed away from bladder cancer (after getting diagnosed a month ago). She’s trying to find a “cheap” cremation service so clearly her money is all spent. Neither I nor SIL have received an apology or explanation of her moving out. Her message to me was, “I know you’re mad at me but can you draw or paint a picture of my birth mom.” I respectfully declined.
Your improvement is good news.
I’m shaking my head at your oldest kid.
She’s not going to admit to doing something completely stupid when she moved out. But (sans bio mom) she is with the family she was taken away from as a kid. That’s not too surprising for someone with a lot of unresolved mental health issues.
What a grueling day. Laundrymat and grocery store. Now I need to hang my clothes up to dry.
Don’t do what I do. I forget that they are there and they stay out all night. Which, I must say, is counterproductive.
I also stopped at the bank and bantered with an absolutely adorable young bank teller. She looks like she’s barely out of college.
Quite probable.
All the dryers were in use? 😉
All the dryers were in use?
I can barely stand to be there through a wash cycle. Plus I have bad memories of commercial dryers which seem to add, rather than subtract, moisture to the clothes.
Possibly the best Bee headline ever.

Daaaaamn!
That’s savage.
Niiiiiice.
Possibly the best Bee headline ever.
It’s just a scratch!
Speaking of, we’re already being subjected to thumbsuckers about “When is an athlete too severely injured to be allowed to compete?”
