I Don’t Know: I’d Probably Give Up Watching After 89 Minutes
Soccer Match Ruined When AI-Controlled Camera Mistakes Ref’s Bald Head for Ball
SB Nation | 30 Oct 2020 | James DatorTechnology in sports is a beautiful thing, but sometimes even the greatest inventions can go wrong. This happened over the weekend in a soccer game in Scotland, when an AI-controlled camera got confused, and thought a lineman’s bald head was the ball.
…To make matters worse Scotland is under strict social distancing measures. With no fans in attendance this was the only ways for fans of Iverness and Ayr United to watch the match, and instead they were treated to 90 minutes of head watching.
November Novena
Welcome to November
Each year’s dying ember —
This one’s extra-seasoned
With rioting unreasoned.
Felons attack the cops?
Break into all the shops!
Won’t bring any change, it’s true
But a pair of Nikes do.
Candidate has lost?
Liquor stores must pay the cost!
Loot! AP decrees
We protest what we seize.
A cross across the chasm
A full year’s dying spasm
We strive to resurrect the myth
That it’s a state we can live with.
Marvelous the illness
Marvelous the cure;
One thing about the present —
For all its faults
It’s pure.
Just Wanted To Get This In Before Joe Biden Is Relegated to the Ashheap of History
No, If a Ghost Offers You These, Do Not Take Them
Just Thought I’d Throw This In There. Because, Russians.
Joe Biden:
“Cause if you could take care, if you were a quartermaster, you can sure in hell take care runnin’ a, you know, a department store uh, thing, you know, where, in the second floor of the ladies department or whatever, you know what I mean?”

Yeah. Vote for him, Democrats. Look yourselves in the mirror, and say “I voted for that.”

Trump issues proclamation declaring Nov. 1 ‘National Day of Remembrance for Americans Killed by Illegal Aliens’
Washington Examiner | 10-31-20 | Andrew Mark Miller“On this national day of remembrance we pause to honor the memory of every American life so egregiously taken from us by criminal illegal aliens,” the statement, emailed to reporters on Friday night, reads.
“We solemnly stand with their families — our Angel families — who have endured what no American family should ever have to suffer.”
Any rebuttal, Joe? I thought not.

In This Case, The Answer Is Not 42
Missoula Man Admits Aiming Laser Pointer at Airplane on Approach to Great Falls
justice.gov | October 28, 2020 | U.S. Attorney’s Office District of Montana
GREAT FALLS – A Missoula man today admitted he aimed a laser beam at an airplane as it was approaching the Great Falls airport, U.S. Attorney Kurt Alme said.
Brian John Loven, 42, pleaded guilty to aiming a laser pointer at an aircraft. Loven faces a maximum five years in prison, a $250,000 fine and three years of supervised release.
Chief U.S. District Judge Brian M. Morris presided. Chief Judge Morris set sentencing for Feb. 25, 2021. Loven was released.
The prosecution said in court documents that at about 9:40 p.m. on March 3, two pilots operating a SkyWest flight reported that on their descent to the Great Falls airport, the plane was hit with a bright green laser that lit up the cockpit. The pilots reported that the incident occurred on the east end of town in the area of Giant Springs State Park.
Cascade County Sheriff’s deputies dispatched to the area located a Jeep driving slowly through the parking lot of Heritage Park, which was closed at the time. Loven was a passenger. The driver told deputies that she was learning how to drive a manual transmission car. While speaking with the driver, deputies noticed a small, black pen-like device sticking out of the center cup holder and asked about the item. The driver retrieved the device, said it was a laser pointer and activated it. The laser pointer projected a green light onto the dashboard.
Deputies interviewed Loven, who admitted to shining the laser at an airplane while it was approaching the airport. Loven explained that he was unaware it was a federal offense to shine a laser at a plane and just wanted to “test out the distance of the laser.”
Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Starnes is prosecuting the case, which was investigated by the Transportation Security Administration, Cascade County Sheriff’s Office and Airport Security.
He was “unaware it was a federal offense to shine a laser at a plane.” Everyone on board could easily have been killed. He’ll be voting for Biden, won’t he? C’mon, man!

Hiya, Eric!
Some spam:
My name’s Eric and I just came across your website – imao.us – in the search results.
Here’s what that means to me…
Your SEO’s working.
You’re getting eyeballs – mine at least.
Your content’s pretty good, wouldn’t change a thing.
BUT…
Eyeballs don’t pay the bills.
CUSTOMERS do.
And studies show that 7 out of 10 visitors to a site like imao.us will drop by, take a gander, and then head for the hills without doing anything else.
Not our readers, Eric.
Damn!
Have you read their comments, Eric?
If only we could get them to drop by, take a gander, and then head for the hills without doing anything else!! They’re brutal!
