Two-Cent Hank

Just my two cents as a man who strives to live a simple life protected by our Constitutional Republic that provides an equal opportunity to all.

Just changed to a profile that will be more authentic to me. My goal is to occasionally post and reply as if we were neighbors rocking on the front stoop of the local country store just chattin' and solving the local and world problems. Some things will be fact, some will be just opinions, and many will be things you might not give a hoot about. If we can have some nice discussions while whittling and drinking some ice-cold RC Cola, then we'll get along fine. Pull up a rocking chair, grab your knife and some wood, and let's chew the fat. Heck - never know what we might accomplish, but we can at least enjoy each other's company.

Good Morning, have you ever had an alarm clock like this? 🤣

@BurnerBarbieUSA @LadyNimby Well, from what I know, they are generally run down and not maintained well

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@GuntherEagleman We've reached the line in the sand now that DSA has been more vocal about who they are and what they stand for.

@BurnerBarbieUSA @LadyNimby There are homes where the owners accept section 8

@AngelinaReagan7 Im older than "you've got mail"

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@SteveHiltonx How are you going to achieve that goal? Yes, I think you can do it, but it is California

@Biblicalman Pray without ceasing

@elonmusk - with the way that you approach major projects and your ability to get your teams to come up with something much better and more efficient than most people think, how about doing this in your spare time....

Come up with a way to massively change starter homes. Right now a lot of builders don't build them because of profit margins. If they could be built more efficiently then think of the massive uptick in homeownership among younger folks. 800-1200 square foot homes maybe?

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

One of my hopes is that each and every person can recognize what a great country we have.

[Gunther Eagleman™ @GuntherEagleman]

Hey @grok, name one country that became richer and freer by going socialist. I'll wait.

@DPrello Just let him find out as a nice surprise

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@Greg_Gaston I don't and won't. It's outrageous these companies markup the price of the food + have the delivery charges

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@atensnut Yet, liberals will still vote for him

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@nicksortor @ChrisWiest11 @realTJRoberts It's an awesome response.

I bet he had fun writing it

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@nicksortor @realTJRoberts @ChrisWiest11 I did see the lawyers response. I approve.

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

Alright. What the heck does "credentialed" mean? She is pretty proud of that.

Has she sent Cease & Desist letters to the legion of people and news businesses that have shown disturbing images. Example of images- Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump getting shot, mass shooting events, etc.

Im looking forward to seeing your lawyers response to her.

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

@ncd22124 Gotta have a little humor

[Two-Cent Hank @2centHank]

Entertaining take

[Norm D. @ncd22124]

Clever post by an anonymous author. 🙂

I keep hearing people complain that gasoline is over $4.00 a gallon. And yes, I'd love to see it at $2.00 again. But before we declare gasoline the most outrageously expensive liquid on Earth, let's put things in perspective.

For $4.00, I get a GALLON of gasoline. I pour it into a 4,000-pound machine, turn a key, and that gallon will haul me, the groceries, the golf clubs and half the junk in my trunk almost 30 miles down the highway.

That's actually a pretty impressive day's work for $4.00.

Now let's compare.

A restaurant sells me a 5-ounce glass of wine for $9. That's about $230 a gallon. And how far does it transport me?

Usually from the dinner table to the men’s room.

A fancy coffee shop can charge $6 for a 16-ounce latte. That's $48 a gallon. It doesn't transport me 30 miles. It transports me from "Leave me alone" to "Okay, now you may speak."

Bottled water at a convenience store might be $2.50 for 20 ounces. That's $16 a gallon, for something that occasionally falls out of the sky FOR FREE.

A 12-ounce energy drink at $3.50 works out to more than $37 a gallon. Apparently caffeine becomes a precious mineral once you put lightning bolts on the can.

Buy one of those little 2-ounce bottles of "energy shot" for $3. That's $192 a gallon. At that price, it shouldn't give me energy. It should mow my lawn.

Maple syrup at $8 for a 12-ounce bottle? About $85 a gallon. And its principal technological achievement is making pancakes sticky.

Vanilla extract at $6 for two ounces? That's $384 a gallon. For $384, I expect the vanilla bean to come to my house and bake the cookies.

Printer ink can cost thousands of dollars per gallon. And unlike gasoline, it sometimes refuses to come out because the printer has decided cyan is low.

Even that $9 glass of wine deserves another look. At roughly $230 a gallon, filling a typical 15-gallon gas tank with restaurant wine would cost about $3,450.

Of course, after drinking 15 gallons of wine, transportation would no longer be your biggest concern.

So yes, $4.00 gasoline is expensive.

But it's also a remarkable bargain when you think about what you're buying. You're purchasing enough concentrated energy to push several thousand pounds of steel, glass, groceries and humanity nearly 30 miles.

Meanwhile, we'll cheerfully pay $6 for coffee, $9 for wine and $3 for water, then stand at the gas pump staring at the numbers like we're watching the national debt clock.

Maybe gasoline doesn't need better pricing.

Maybe it just needs a fancier name.

"Handcrafted Premium Petroleum, locally pumped, small-batch refined, with subtle notes of octane and dinosaur."

Put it in a 12-ounce artisan bottle and charge $14.

We'll line up around the block.

FEEL FREE TO COPY THIS LIKE I DID.

@nicksortor Found it. Be sure to read her letter

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

🚨 UPDATE: I have received a CEASE-AND-DESIST demand from some deranged leftist for facilitating the livestream of the Fort Hood shooter’s execution

My attorneys will be responding shortly.

Spoiler alert: the livestream WILL go on!

Here's a response to a cease and desist that @nicksortor received. Hopefully I can get back to it. If so it will be in the comments.

[TJ Roberts @realTJRoberts]

Dear Ms. Brickl,

Quit messing with my client.
