  1. Went into one like that at an airport in Kenya. Huge log just lying in the shallow end, covered in flies.
  2. I'll take this one. I have never said the judges were in the tank for DoTARd. I have continually said the system is rigged* to allow people like DOtaRd (wealthy, white, bad faith actors) to avoid consequences by delaying delaying delaying. Which is exactly what has been happening. After this bullshit comes back from the supremes, it'll just be some other bullshit. Then some other bullshit. Then some other bullshit. I will give all my rep to you and Twice and anybody else who wants it if he is still alive when the Jan 6 trial concludes, regardless of the verdict. *If you don't like the word "rigged" then substitute "set up" or "designed". Use whatever word you want.
  3. Too bad nobody put a joint in his bags.
  4. fixy. doTArd would be screaming about rigged elections and his acolytes would either write him in, or not vote. edit: I see our resident aggy has already made this point. DOH!
  5. FAFO indeed. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/01/us/oregon-legislators-walkout-supreme-court.html tldr: Oregon State Senate rules require 2/3 of senators to be present to vote on a bill. R senators in the minority don't show up so bills they know they will lose won't get voted on (bills about taxes, climate, abortion, guns, etc). People pass a constitutional amendment that says if you miss more than 10 votes you are barred from re-election. Oregon Supreme Court rules, and I quote "FAFO". Now 9 (out of 12) R senators plus one Independent senator cannot run for re-election. 6 this year, plus 4 in 2026. entire article:
  6. First paragraph, meh. I give it a C- Second paragraph, nice rant-- solid A Edit: Speaking of Dollar General-- I will walk ten miles before shopping at Dollar General, but wife insisted we stop by there yesterday for a few things. Out of morbid curiosity, I went in with her. Its been years since I've been in one. Horrifying. Absolutely horrifying. Anybody who thinks we need more people needs to spend more time in a Dollar General. I came out of there rooting for the next virus.
  7. Me too. But not for the exercise, more so I can feel superior.
  8. I honestly really really hope y'all are correct. But I'm old and cynical. Its not the yutes that will give this election to Biden. Its the auto workers in Pennsylvania. Its the blacks in Georgia.
  9. Hey, he travels. From godforbidden Florida in the winter, to goforbidden New Jersey in the summer. Also, hard to world travel when you have to be in court every couple of weeks.
  10. Good. But I'm guessing she would be can't waiting to vote the orange piece of shit even if she wasn't a Swift fan.
  11. remind us who won that election? Point is, I'm not sure the "Tay-Tay Effect" will be as big as some of y'all seem to thing it will be.
  12. counterpoint: worth a billion dollars. Would bang.
  13. Oh, they need drivers. Badly. But with all the school shootings and everything else fucked up about today's society, I bet its probably becoming more common.
  14. I'm not retired, but long ago I was a volunteer DJ at the local NPR station. Then one day, a friend who is a teacher called me up and said the district needed a stadium PA announcer for home football games, and suggested I would have a good voice for it. So, I talked to the AD, and got hired on the spot. That led to working the game clock at basketball games and other crap like that. The pay ain't great, something like 25 bucks a game for middle school games, 35 for JV games, 50 for varsity, but being the PA announcer at home football games in a small Texas town is fun.
