I like my cheap ($45 on Amazon) Casio Waveceptor watch. It’s digital (thus easier to read)
and it is accurate. The Waveceptor is, so far as I can tell – the most accurate watch you can
wear. Every 8 hours it tunes to the National Institute of Standards and Technology radio
station and effectively sets itself by the atomic clock. The most it can ever be off is the
minute amount of drift between times it sets itself. You are talking milliseconds at most.
I have an Olympus salesman’s watch that I bought on ebay. It has someone
else’s name on the back and five diamond chips for five years in sales.
But I’m an Olympus fan, so it’s all good.
Hi Bill.
Know the stuff – have one myself. Mine gets its signal from DCF in Frankfurt, Germany (77 kHz). However,
you have to take into account the distance to the transmitter (the socalled propagation delay), which must be
added to your posible error. Still, having a watch that corrects itself at least once every 24 hours is pretty
neat – I think the software in US and EU versions must be different.
The fact that it (mine) is water resistant down to 200 meters is also pretty neat, although I don’t really see how
I could swim that far down if I lost it overboard 😉
Sorry for going OT on the comic, PC…
Jan, it is approximately 900 miles (1,450 km) straight line from San Antonio, Texas to
Fort Collins, Colorado where the NIST radio station is located. Propagation delay for
that distance is > 5 milliseconds. Add in another couple of ms to decode the signal and
the total deviation on my watch would be under 10 ms. Casio guarantees it for under
500 ms/day which would be just prior to it setting itself. I prefer a digital watch because
it is easier to read. Additionally, I like having the stopwatch, alarm and world clock
functions. I use the countdown timer when I’m cooking something in the air fryer.
they put 90 men an 10 females on an island,
100 years later it was a thriving community.
they then put 50 men an 50 full transitioned.
came back 50 years later an found a 100
male skeletons…
But a holder of a PHD claimed that he could
not tell if a skeleton was male or female.
Because he could not tell which were transgender.
I happen to agree with him,
it is impossible to examine a skeleton
and tell if that person was mentally ill.
Yeah, and our newest Supreme Court Associate Justice (a woman, oddly enough)
cannot tell you what a woman is. Insane is insane. If were Riley Gains’ dad I’d be
inclined to turn “Lia” Thomas into something resembling a Ken doll. At least my daughter
and the other female athletes wouldn’t have to look at his junk in the locker room any
more. If anybody has any question about male superiority vs female in sports, a few
minutes spent at https://boysvswomen.com/#/ should tell you all you need to know.
Please note that in track and field the hammer, discus & javelin competitions were not
included because of significant differences in the weights of the objects. Hammer: boys
5.4kg/12lb vs womens 4kg/8.82lb; Discus: boys 1.6kg/3.5lb vs womens 1kg/2.2lb;
Javelin: boys 800g/1.76lb vs women 600g/1.3lb.
I think transgenders should compete,
BUT!! only against other transgenders.
A male to female is not fair to straight
female competitors. My opinion.
As Serena Williams said,
“women cannot compete against men.”
She should know.
Sorry to say, in my case, no. Between communications issues between the VA,
the hospital that did my thyroidectomy, and the usual Charlie Foxtrot of the VA
cancelling contracts with hospitals, oh, and of course my further loss of voice
and my worsening ability to eat solid or semi solid foods, my life is getting worse.
And that’s not EVEN covering the cancelling of my anti-cancer radiation treatments
I was supposed to have had before last November! This, and a number of other
Major issues has pretty much wrecked my life. But, I still trudge on, because I’m too
Damned stubborn to quit.
No need to apologize, life happens.
And if reading this comic and being a part of this community makes your life
a little more enjoyable, well, I’m glad.
This is a terrific comic. Thank-you.
I still think they should have impaled him on the pedestal
and then dropped the building on him.
It would only hurt for a little while. Heh, heh.
My wife is getting better, she’s started doing minor housework again.
I’ve been working with her to get better motion with her new hip,
she’s scared of trusting the implant. It got worse when she seen a
video of the procedure, I can’t blame her the part when they hammered
it in twisted my stomach too.
I’m ok, just need to get my glucose levels back to normal.

Alyssa….. I like her already!
A warehouse rat!
I like her. A lot!
We think alike!
Find a part. Remember it. Get it to the right person.
A Digger.
And a smart ass, too.
What’s not to like?
When my wife was younger she was like that, always knew where
something was at or could find it in minutes. Kinda annoying
sometimes after spending an hour looking for something and
she went right to it heh…
President Elect Toxic Deplorable Racist SAH Neanderthal B Woodman Domestic Violent Extremist SuperStraight
Well, El Presidente FAFO.
And a more quick and merciful death then he deserved.
And even though Samuel was the one to mete out the justice,
it still doesn’t bring back his friend. He still feels hollow, empty.
But good for his commander to care about Samuel’s mental health.
And to do what’s best for him, even though he might not realize it yet.
I would of loved to see that President to get the crap beat out
of him first, but it’s for the best, I think it would of bothered
Samuel more if he had than make him feel better. I’m glad that
he’s going to the Imperial military, they can help him more and
the change would give him distractions he otherwise not have.
Distractions help but it’s never a cure.
Interesting, the Androids could make changes to their programming,
it’s a double-edged sword but as long it is to improve themselves,
I don’t see a problem with it. I’m sure the heat problem can be
addressed it’s just a matter of time.
They can’t make changes to their own programming,
just that of their bodies and other externals.
Sort of like changing the programming of a computer without
being able to change the programming built into the CPU.
Ah that’s not so bad then, like the CPU sending updates to the GPU.
Or a main server sending updates to all terminals. I was getting
Stargate: Atlantis vibes out of that, the human form replicators? When
they decided to wipe out all humans in order to kill the wraith. Which
was really dumb, the wraith could of just adapted to “eating” some
other kind of livestock, that would be like an alien race wiping out all
cows to kill us off, there’s always alternatives.
Don’t know how often you go to DA anymore,
but: I haven’t been there in at least a week.
Just came off one Hell of a Depression.
Not sure where I am going in life at this
point but everything just seems Useless.
Anyone here need a good wristwatch?

And if you’d but 90 manly he-men on an island with 10 women,
what would you find coming back after 100 days?
One lone, starving, more than half crazed “survivor” in rags,
telling you that he did “show them who’s in charge.”

Go to boysvswomen.com to see just how great an advantage
biological males have in athletics. It’s downright scarey!
Yes, I know. Not fair at all.
As the old radio westerns used to say,
“meanwhile back at the ranch.”
Is everyone back to health?
Sorry to say, in my case, no. Between communications issues between the VA,

Sorry, I hope it turns around for you.
Anything to do with government takes forever to fix.
