Phyllis Diller lived in Webster Groves "The Park" area (high faluting fancy rich folks with big houses and even bigger yards full of doctors, lawyers, bankers, etc.) just a few blocks from me.
Phyllis Diller
Born Phyllis Ada Driver, she combined wild costumes, untamed hair and a raucous laugh with self-deprecating monologues to create one of comedy’s most popular characters. A 1955 club booking skyrocketed her to success: scheduled for two weeks, she stayed 89. After moving to Webster Groves in 1961, Diller honed her act in St. Louis clubs such as Gaslight Square’s Crystal Palace. Mid-1960s television routines featuring “Fang,” her imaginary husband, brought national acclaim. In addition to her television, film and stage work, Phyllis Diller made five records, wrote four best-selling books and performed on piano with over 100 symphony orchestras. -
2022-01-23 at 6 PM UTC in what's the last thing you bought?I bought two 20 amp @ 120 volt SPST toggle switches to replace a fried selector switch for my little portable heater. The old switch went from "off" to "low" to "hi" in one control. I drilled out the housing for the two new switches and wired it to turn on the first heater bank with the first switch and the second heater bank with the second switch. Cost me $10 for the two switches and it works fine now. I could have saved a buck or two by going with a lesser amp rating (each bank only draws 6 amps) but wanted the added reliability.

Barr has spoken to January 6 committee, chairman says
Melissa Quinn
Washington — Congressman Bennie Thompson, chairman of the House select committee investigating the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, revealed Sunday that former Attorney General William Barr has spoken with investigators.
"We've had conversations with the former attorney general already. We have talked to Department of Defense individuals," Thompson, a Democrat from Mississippi, said in an interview with "Face the Nation" when asked if the committee intended to speak with Barr about a draft executive order reportedly given to former President Donald Trump that would have directed the Defense Department to seize voting machines after he lost the 2020 election.
"We are concerned that our military was part of this big lie on promoting that the election was false. So, if you are using the military to potentially seize voting machines, even though it's a discussion, the public needs to know. We've never had that before," he continued.
Several news outlets last week published the draft executive order that was obtained by the select committee as part of a trove of documents it requested from the National Archives last year. Trump sued to block the committee from getting the reams of records from his White House, but the Supreme Court last week declined to block their release, clearing the way for the National Archives to turn the documents over to House investigators.
The draft executive order, first published by Politico, was never issued, and it's unclear who wrote the document. Dated December 16, 2020, the order would have authorized the secretary of defense to "seize, collect, retain and analyze all machines, equipment, electronically stored information, and material records required for retention" under a federal law governing the retention and preservation of election records.
Thompson said the committee does not know whether there was anyone within the Pentagon working on the issue of possibly seizing voting machines, but said the draft executive order "is reason enough to believe that it was being proposed."
"We have information that between the Department of Justice, a plan was put forward to potentially seize voting machines in the country and utilize Department of Defense assets to make that happen," he said.
The committee is also examining efforts of Republican presidential electors in five states won by President Biden to cast unofficial votes and submit fake Electoral College certificates claiming Trump, not Mr. Biden, won their states, according to reports.
Thompson said the panel is concerned that documents were filed by individuals falsely claiming they were responsible for conducting and certifying elections.
"When you falsify documents, in most instances, that's a criminal act," he said, noting that any decision on possible prosecutions would be made by the Justice Department.
The committee has in the course of its investigation issued subpoenas to dozens of people — White House aides, organizers of the January 6 rally outside the White House and allies of Trump — and Thompson said it is in the process of reviewing the more than 700 pages of documents it obtained from the National Archives.
Public hearings are expected to begin in the spring, he said.
"Part of our plan is to continue to engage all those individuals that we deem necessary and important to our investigation. Some we'll talk to, some we will do in deposition under oath. Others we will offer hearing opportunities," Thompson said. "But I can assure you, as we develop this information, we will clearly present it to the public. We plan at this point to have a series of public hearings showing the use of federal assets, Department of Justice, Department of Defense and other agencies to actually stop the duly election of a president. So, we'll do it in due time." -

‘House of Trump is crumbling’: why ex-president’s legal net is tightening
Ed Pilkington in New York
When Donald Trump announced plans in 2006 to build a golf complex on ancient sand dunes on the Aberdeenshire coast in Scotland he told reporters it was love at first sight. “As soon as I saw it there was no question about it,” he said. It would be the world’s “greatest golf course”.
This week Trump International Scotland became a central element of a case that looks poised to dominate his post-presidential life, and could even put him behind bars.
Local fishermen denounced Trump as a “loudmouth bully” during construction of the course. Environmentalists warned the development would destroy the natural habitat, and sure enough it did inflict such damage that the site was stripped of its protected status.
But none of this deflected Trump from his goal. Today, the Scottish complex stands as a “premier luxury golf” experience replete with five-star hotel and helicopter landing pad, at a bargain membership of £2,595 ($3,518) a year.
Fifteen years on, the property has done wonders for its owner. That is, if you measure success according to the idiosyncratic accounting style of Donald Trump.
He bought the 2,000 acres (809 hectares) site at Menie in 2006 for $12.6m. Within five short years it was valued by the Trump Organization in its financial statements at $161m, an increase of almost 13 times.
By 2014, the windswept Scottish holding was put at $436m.

Originally posted by ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As of November 1, 2021, there have been more adverse events reported for the COVID vaccines than for all 70+ vaccines combined since they started tracking adverse events 30 years ago. The COVID vaccines are the most dangerous vaccines in human history. They are 800 times more deadly than the smallpox vaccine which was the previous record holder. The vaccines have killed over 150,000 Americans and permanently disabled even more. They don’t make sense for anyone of any age. The younger you are, the worse it gets. For kids, it is estimated that we kill 117 kids for every COVID death we prevent.
Gee, you never seem to post a source for any of the bullshit you post, do you?
Where's the source on that chart you have posted a few posts up?
SURPRISE...IT'S NOWHERE TO BE FOUND!
