I'm retired member of IATSE, 31 years and 8 years in NABET before that.I learned everything I needed to know about Donald Trump when he crossed the IATSE picket line of “The Apprentice" in New York City on December 16, 2004. He didn't even have the courage to look my union kin in the eye.

He was a lovely guy, and kind.

Being a crypto billionaire is a lot like being a Monopoly money billionaire.

You can sign up for seats along the parade route online as well and just not show up. I have, but will be attending a No Kings event instead.

The entire population of the country is 5.52 million. Total number of Teslas sold there in May was around 2,600 vehicles, mostly of the revamped model y. Sales will reach the saturation point soon, even when taking into account the country’s electric vehicle mandate.

Good to know. Not surprising since it’s flinging paint at whatever is getting finished. Tool envy now under control. Best part of airless is that the paint dries so quickly that it’s easier to get a smooth finish. Seems like the battery version nullifies that advantage.

I am jealous of the battery powered airless sprayer. My ancient ac powered one just won’t die.

My experience as well.

He’s also a nice guy.
