  1. My shitty understanding is that 23 and me routinely does an AutoSomal test which should get all chromosomes, but females won't get any Ys and males one Xs. While this may not make a difference for health, for ancestry, it might.
  2. Yeah but she got fewer electoral votes (the only ones that count) than an orange man.
  3. Clinton to fundraise alongside possible 2020 contenders Hillary Clinton in Chicago today Bill and Hillary Clinton Ate Dinner on Navy Pier on Wednesday The D's got infected with the Hillary virus almost 20 years ago, and like herpes, there is no cure.
  4. Webb Hubble,horn4life, and possibly Hugo,
  5. Blumenthal's hanging soulless zuckerburg out to dry. "we've seen these apology tours before"
  6. Over the past few years though, it seems that "whatabout butthurt" is the essence of all political discussion.
  7. Serious question. Would this open the door (if it is not already open) to anyone being able to do a background check on anyone? Is that what we want? Back in the early nineties, I was in a brought in to lead a Cub Scout Pack in which the previous leader was a cop who ran background checks on other potential adult leaders. Caused a hell of a ruckus.
  8. I'm using the second definition.
  9. I remember the incident, haven't seen the movie, and likely won't. The Kennedys seem like they were a bunch of drunken horn-dogs who were rich enough to get out of all their problems. I do know that before it happened, my mother was as staunch a supporter of the Kennedys as you would find. Afterwards she said she never support Teddy for anything.
  10. How so, the last I heard was her continuing to claim her mother was part NA.
  11. Surly by now she knows better, she should own it. If not Trump will continue to hammer her about it. And I will disrespect her for it.
  12. Out of curiosity, I did a little genealogy research on this a few weeks ago. From what I understand, the claim is based upon the second wife of her Xth great-grandfather being Native American. However, EW descends from the first wife of the Xth great-grandfather. There is no hard evidence about the 2nd wife, but even if the story is true, EW has zero Native American ancestry. She can't bring herself to tell the whole story, so she's been sticking to the defending her "family story", while refusing to take a DNA test.
  13. I agree that Trump is vulnerable, but I disagree that she is the most well equipped to challenge him. Old adage in Presidential races....winner is usually the one you'd most like to have a beer with. With Trump/Hillary, well I'd rather have a beer with Trump. Same with Warren. She comes across as angry. I don't want to have a beer with an angry person. Second, she has history against her. Very few sitting Senators win. Yeah Obama, but he was a Senator vs a Senator. Last one before him was Kennedy, before Kennedy...well its been a long time. (And I don't think a sitting congressman has ever won.) Dems should look to a respected governor or former governor, or held high position in Obama or Clinton White House. As to your comment on women and minorities, yeah they'll be motivated, but Warren will turn off middle America. Run Warren (or Bernie) and we may be saddled with Trump until Jan, 2025
  14. "Yelling at the Clouds"---Cloak Room
  15. Apparently he questioned whether the Ruskies were behind the nerve agent attack on Skripal. BBC
  16. I remember going to (I think) the first home game of Earl's freshman year. He didn't start, but they put him in. Recruiting wasn't followed back then like it is now (or at least I didn't follow it). I asked one of the guys in our group if they knew anything about him. Answered with kind of a shrug, "I've heard he supposed to be good." Biggest understatement of all eternity.
