canadas wildfires have provided us a nifty little haze. i kinda like it. it smells good.

[KUTradition]

that map has zero to do with Canada wildfires

it depicts regular, industrial air pollution

air pollution in MICHIGAN . hardy har har.

[pdub]

93.2% of days in the great state of MAINE are good air quality days.
that is # 1 on the continental united states.

the below average state of michigan checks in at 37th with 79.9% of days being good air quality days.
that would be like being a 12 seed in the national good air tournament.

pdub, in case Randy isn't monitoring the board because he's out marking his territory, you're the next most logical expert... A weatherperson I just saw outside in NYC on NBC had a mask on while showing the smoke in NYC and talking about all the flight delays that are rippling across the US and across the Atlantic, and recommending everyone stay inside but if you have to get out, wear a mask, yada, yada.

So I wanted to know what you think of the theory that Biden, Soros, and Gates had Antifa go up to Canada and set a bunch of fires so the smoke would came down here and they could start forcing everyone to wear a mask again, because everyone knows that next to killing unborn babies and drinking their blood while watching drag show queens perform sex-change operations on 4 year-olds, forcing Americans to wear a mask is #2 on the democratic agenda?

I think that theory checks out.

Sounds almost as dumb as men pretending to be women

Smoke inhalation is a hoax. Clean air has microchips and will kill you.

Did Antifa set the fires so lobster could sell more masks to his relatives?

Florida’s biosecurity failings threaten Caribbean reptiles

[ousdahl]

So I’m donating another guided fishing trip to a local nonprofit’s fundraiser auction.

If you recall last year, I billed the trip as recommended to enjoy no later than “early September,” since the fishing slows down and the weather is prone to turning much later than that.

Several posters insisted it was my fault for not explicitly stating that time frame was not, in fact, meant to include dates in the latter half of September too.

But y’all wanted to do late September anyway, and go figure the fishing sucked and we got snowed on.

So if I may ask, do you guys think there’ll be less confusion this year if I just bill the trip as expiring “by the end of August?”

Or does that infer y’all can still go in October instead?

[KUTradition]

just set a hard end date…like September 15

[pdub]

just set a hard end date…like September 15

Yea.
Not that hard.
Trip date must be before September the 15th 2023.
