  1. So tired of wiping
  2. I'm a douchebag. No argument there. But I wasn't comparing the two. I was observing Trump's background re- service makes him a poor messenger for the point. I usually try to separate the message from the messenger but his ubiquitous bullshit makes it far harder than normal to isolate him from issues and their relative merits. That said, neither of avoiding military service nor embellishing extent of service is a positive qualification for holding office. So I'll be true to douchebag form and offer up a similarity though not an equivalence.
  3. I picked up a couple of Bounty Hunter's Four Roses OESV last month. Highly recommended and I think they serve it at the bar if you'd like a sample first.
  4. Yesterday's post game meal.
  5. So lying about service is a problem. What about lying to avoid service? I'll hang up and listen President Bone Spurs.
  6. Last night's birthday cake
  7. Yesterday made 46. The candles didn't fit on my cake.
  8. Nice how the 239lb prez is easily shopped over 2 grown men.
  9. Thanks again the recommendations. Depart tonight and will report back.
  10. Says a lot about trumps (mis)understanding of both truth and war.
  11. Sounds like permission to cheat on said daughter. Enjoy the consequence free adultery. Make sure to keep him up to date on your escapades.
  12. It can be a pain in the ass but every once in a while I feel the need to see what the old Weber kettle can do.
  13. And if we're going to bring Star Wars villains into this, I'd imagine the jar jar / phantom menace theory is most appropriate.
  14. Fake news. We know he hates the dark side.
  15. Fake news. We know he hates the dark side.
  16. Whoever it was, it's the first whistle blower from this administration that wasn't using a dog whistle.
  17. I've done ok. I'm now the CFO of a midsize company and been in management since the early 00s. I've had to let people go - sometimes because of their performance and sometimes because of broader corporate issues. In either case, I've always felt respecting the impacted person's dignity important enough to speak with them personally. I'll go out on a limb that their accomplishments likely fell short of some one ascending to a senior White House role. But paying a basic level of respect to someone who's life is being upended seemed appropriate. Among the many things I find fault with in the current administration, the lack of basic respect for personal dignity often rises near the top of the list. Both in its cowardly contrast to the blustering bravado and in its insensitivity to the impacted person and their families. tl/dr: fuck the chickenshit way djt handles business
  18. Pepsico/ Frito Lay running a campaign celebrating Hillary could do more to reverse America's obesity crisis than decades of public education and nutritional guidance.
  19. Regarding Nike's cost benefit analysis, my first thought was this is a bold move that might eat into shareholder value. Then I realized they'd upset trumpkins which, by the eyeball test, aren't the biggest consumers of fitness apparel or sporting goods. And when they do, their more likely in the Russell Athletic segment. Feels like a safer mover than initially perceived.
  20. Oh yeah. Well I might hit up Twin dollar days tomorrow.
  21. Vermouth upgrades are under appreciated. Dolins sweet is my go to. Cocchi Torino is a second but it's flavor is more like Carpano Antiqua which I find can be overpowering in Manhattans (but others generally regard it as the gold standard). Bonus on Dolins is most HEBs sell in a 375. Vermouth spoils so that helps limit the time a bottle is open. Cocchi Americano is my preferred dry vermouth. Yet to find a close second. Works great in martinis and perfect manhattans.
  22. The bonuses were accelerated because their value as a tax deduction was more under the higher 2017 rates than the lower 2018 rates. I’d bet many people didn’t get more they just got it earlier.
  23. “It's not a tragedy,” said Trump. “It was a tragedy because it was ambushed. I like like bases that weren’t ambushed.”
