June 14, 2000: USS Buchanan (DDG-14) proved to be a tough ship. She remained afloat after being hit by three AGM-114 Hellfire air-to-surface missiles, three Harpoon anti-ship missiles, and a 2,400-pound (1,100 kg) laser-guided bomb in the Pacific Ocean off Hawaii. The job was finally done by 200 pounds of C-4 explosive charges set by an EOD team.

OpenAI appoints Retired U.S. Army General Paul M. Nakasone to Board of Directors
He brings special interests from the NSA and only shows you are corrupt and compromised at the very highest level and infiltrated by Chinese, North Koreans & probably Russians too. It's not hard to understand that the US big brother has full operating control and influence over this app.
"We began the ability for us to defend the presidential elections not today, not six months from now. We began it the day after the midterm elections."

A Writer's Dilemma
In the grip of ardscalpsie, a sorrowful sight,
Palimpsest discarded, unable to write.
I ache for smultronställe's sweet sun dappled shade,
And the calm of the trunnels' path through the glade.
Ache be gone, tonight I dine in heavenly strawberry shortcake & tomorrow too!
Bonus Friday word: "Mumpsimus", 16th century: one who insists that they are right (or wronged) when all evidence points to the contrary. The current Banana republic administration is the lodestone of mumpsimus maximus.
