Don’t go chasing waterfalls: Plans for “indoor beach and interactive wave pool” to be built in Niagara scrapped due to Covid-19!

But a possible silver lining?

Have you ever been to Niagara Falls in upstate New York? I have not but was inspired by those brave men and women who climbed into barrels and took the leap when I was a child. Stoic faces, straight backs, a willingness to laugh in the face of fate. Or, not laugh but stoically stare.

Very brave.

The falls, which have both a Canadian side and an American side, are a popular wedding destination and I think people gamble too.

Alas, surfing has been taken off the menu.

Local hotelier Michael DiCienzo had, in the works, a vast indoor beach featuring an “interactive wave pool the size of a football field” along with jumbo video screens, restaurant, bar and a saltwater lagoon where guests could swim with marine creatures.

The Niagara Beach and Surf Club was going to be extremely fun, safer than a barrel into oblivion, and permits were granted even though there was some trouble when Niagara’s mayor complained the photos used to sell the club (above) were photoshopped from a Japanese indoor beach later demolished.

Alas, Covid-19.

DiCienzo told the local Buffalo News, “We’re not in a very good environment for all types of business investment right now. We’ve canceled any projects for the foreseeable future.”

Does this also mean that foreseeable future Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch events are canceled too?

Hope springs eternal.

Trump never fucked his way up the ladder in politics. He also never withheld exculpatory evidence for a death row inmate until forced to do so by the Supreme Court.
I can’t figure out why Harris joined the ticket of someone she accused of being a racist, and of someone she agreed committed a sexual assault.

Ruining America? Man the economy was way better when we were in the Paris accord than it is now. So maybe pulling out of the according is currently ruining America.

The raw Intel was.being investigated for corroboration and whoever leaked it not only committed a felony, but fucked up the investigation just to get some lame narrative that you bought in to.
Now let’s talk about Biden. No one knew Team 6 had done the raid on Usama Bin Ladin until he ran his fucking mouth. Even Obama didn’t name our Tier 1 unit that did the OP. Nope, just dumbfucking Joe Biden, putting mission security in risk, putting Team members and their families at risk. Biden doesn’t fucking care. He just wanted to brag. What a clown.

Nice try at the switcharoo there. You’re really stretching pretending how Biden did something wrong there. Bin Laden is dead isn’t he? Yes. Was the mission a success? Yes. Did the members of the mission die? No.
But there are dead Americans and the Russians were literally lying people to do it.

Trump is trying to slow down illegal immigration – which I agree with.

America does not have the capacity to absorb all the world’s problems.

There are legal ways to get into America and it takes time, and those who take shortcuts get the boot.

Australia does the exact same thing, and maybe even harsher than America. Stranding refugees in Nauru and isolated Pacific Islands.

so yeah there is brain drain happening …

The smart immigrants aren’t getting kicked out. Where I grew up in Santa Clara is all wogs now: Chinese and Indians. It’s weird, but they think they’ve died and gone to heaven.

If you have skills that America needs, you are welcome.

and don’t worry other countries are cashing in by taking the immigrants…as usual you rate success by $’s just like DT.

I rate success by innovation and ideas and progression and moving the world forward, which is exactly what California is doing right now.

Have you heard of Tesla? Probably the most important company in the world right now as they are accelerating the inevitable transition to electric cars. Speeding it up be decades.

Is that happening in Australia? Fuck no. You lazy cunts can’t even produce Holdens anymore.

It’s happening in California, and it’s happening very very fast.

Tesla seems like Men in Black to me, the speed with which they innovate and produce and how far ahead of everyone else they are.

That’s MAGA, right there. That’s how America used to kick ass, and they are doing it now.

What you don’t realize because of the brown ring around your neck , that what the USA does affects all of us Global citizens…

Yes it does, for better and for worse. But more better than worse. There are segments of America that are moving the world forward. Didn’t Tesla build a power plant in South Oz or Victoria somewhere?

.we do not trust the USA now as a world leader……

Who are “we?”

“Legendary” surfboard shapers?
That’s about two dozen people.
Who cares?
You’re a sideshow of a sideshow.
The smart people know where the action is, and it’s not China and it’s not Russia and it sure as shit ain’t Australia.

.but like many of your countrymen , your view is so narrow to believe that California is the center of the world……

I’ve probably seen more of the world than you have and where I live I am surrounded by the people making the changes.

Right now Im going a Malibu history book using a drone that belongs to the CEO of Verily/Google Life Sciences. One of the most innovative people on the planet.

California has more going on than most places: Tesla, Spacex, Google, Intel, Apple, Facebook, etc etc etc. There’s more going on in Calfiornia than all of Australia, that’s for sure. Lazy sods.

I actually see Otto as part of the rabid right…and your are from the loony left…just extremists who really don’t contribute to a democratic narrative!

California has a lot of Coronavirus infections.

However, San Francisco County has only had 69 Coronvirus deaths which is kind of miraculous, considering how densely populated and social the place is./b>

why can’t the USA sell automobiles to the rest of the world…because they are shit and don’t compare to asian or European cars.


The Ford F series is the most popular automobile line in the world.
Second only to Toyota Corolla in 2019.

Have you driven an F 100 or a Dodge Ram or an American pickup lately?

And Tesla are absolutely revolutionizing the auto industry, and selling as many cars as they can make. In 10 years they have produced more than a million cars in four models from one factory, and they have set all the legacy automakers scrambling because they are so far ahead of everyone else.

Tesla – a California company Making America Great Again – not that Trump would dare set foot in the Golden State to check out the factory – he would get egged, or someone would give him a Royal Lift.

You reallllllyyyyyyy never really know what you’re talking about, do you?

Just empty sniping at America and the Golden State – a lost, empty voice from the surfing world.

Too many resin fumes. Too much foam dust. I have seen this in others.

dream on bigger is bigger and more better, it’s al about being a winner….

No it’s all about innovating and making the world better, which is what California is doing with Tesla and SpaceX and Google Life Sciences and a whole lot of tech companies.

Well there is that other great nearly scientist, who says ” The Virus will just magically disappear , inject Clorox , the death toll is what it is, masks and testing are over rated, the USA has the best testing in the world , the best numbers ( yes even world leaders call up to congratulate him on his Covid response!)

Reality is the USA has the 4% of the worlds population , but 25% of the world deaths and infections , and no sign yet that the USA/ Nearly scientist believes there is no problem with the pandemic, “it is under control!”……..so the right says there is no problem , lets open schools…the left says ” People are dying en masse from Corona, the economy can’t recover until the pandemic is under control , so more testing, tracing and masks”

I think that the data is flawed. I think, actually at this point we don’t have to think about that, I know that the death count data is wrong. It’s also misleading as deaths not caused by Wuhan Flu are still considered Wuhan Flu deaths just because the lefty bureaucrats infesting the CDC demanded that mere positive was good enough.
I think that if grocery stores can be open, everything can be open.
I think it’s easier than Democrats are willing to admit to keep at-risk people quarantined than to keep entire populations locked down. The fact that everyone in DC is ordered to wear masks EXCEPT lawmakers and govt. workers tells me everything I need to know about the need for masks.
The fact that Democrats want to cripple future generations with debt because they wish to use the Wuhan Flu to get money into blue state control to re-fund ($1T) their grossly mismanaged pension programs tells me everything about lefty motivations.
It’s not just Trump calling for opening schools, Cuomo and Chuck Schumer are too.

Out of 180+ campaign contributions, only 5 were for Republicans. I do believe that CDC death count guidelines are purposely defined for maximum negative impact on Trump. It’s also a fact that hospitals have a financial incentive to report deaths as Covid related due to federal reimbursement.
Covid is not going away. I do believe herd immunity is the best pathway forward. Data out of Sweden would indicate that also.

Sweden has a very high death toll compared to Norway and Denmark , with no sign there was any economic advantage…they are still fighting the pandemic and have apologized to their citizens for getting it wrong!
So the Herd mentality is now what the USA will experience asit’s too late to flatten the curve , game on , because if you are wrong and the scientists are right ….good bye USA!

Look at San Francisco County – probably the bluest county in the country.

Why?

Because the people there are smart, think for themselves and ignore anything coming from Washington.

Trump didn’t crush anything.

Neil Young has fired the lawsuit back up on different legal grounds, and ASCAP and BMI have removed Young’s music and the Rolling Stones from their playlists.

So Trump no longer has access to that music.

Wow, you actually like Trump?

What a hammherhead.

What crappy Red State did you say you live in?

I’m guessing Florida. You stink of the swamps.

It’s actually genius because you could do several loads of laundry at the same time as not getting barrelled.

The year is 2051 A.D., and there wasn’t much to do. All the bowling alleys were wrecked, and so were all the events at Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch. So I spent my time looking for beer and waves where no one else would, even though there was no one else.
