  1. It's chicken fried turkey- I'm sure it's delicious. 

    Presentation is important to me, so I doubt I'd do it for an actual Thanksgiving meal, but I might just buy a discounted turkey or two the day after and do this for big family meals.  

  2. Any recs on park/all Mountain skis?  My boy is racing, but also wants a versatile pair that will work in the park and on groomers.  We're in the Midwest, so not having backcountry or deep powder skis is fine. 

    Right now we're leaning towards the Armada ARV 88.

    Bonus question: Do I need to get the kid a second pair of boots too?  He loves his race boots, but I'm not sure it'll be comfortable on rec skis.  

  3. Not a government issue, but what the hell?

    The school district confirmed with FOX 7 Austin that it was two varsity football players that spread peanut powder and peanut products on a fellow teammate's locker and clothes.

    The teammate had a severe peanut allergy and broke out in hives.

     

    Whatever happened do TPing his yard, or putting icy Hot in his jock.  Hell, even dumping his head in the toilet is better than this.  At least that won't kill him.

  4. Just watched the video.  Holy shit.  This is so dishonest and is in such bad faith.  And I know, duh- of course it is, but still.  You declined to cross!!!! Everything that "he didn't get to explain", could have been remedied by your own questioning! You didn't ask questions because you wanted to get him out of the hole he was digging because, in reality, he was saying to much!

    Meh.  Their version is not "all they get".  it's all they want and all they'll accept.  Video evidence won't change that.  Video can be clipped and taken out of context just as easily as print.

    I need to get me some of them disclaimer clauses. "Hey heads up, this is all bullshit and I'm committing crimes but you can't charge me." 

    From a (mostly worthless) NYT Opinion piece: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/28/opinion/trump-lawsuit-real-estate.html#commentsContainer

    To Mr. Trump, that disclaimer makes the statement useless to anyone who would want to do business based on it. He said it’s known in the business as the “worthless clause.”

    “Again, you know, I hate to be boring and tell you this,” he said in his sworn deposition. “When you have the worthless clause on a piece of paper and the first — literally the first page you’re reading about how this is a worthless statement from the standpoint of your using it as a bank or whatever — whoever may be using it, you tend not to get overly excited about it. I think it had very little impact, if any impact on the banks.”

    The prosecutor then asked him, “So am I understanding that you didn’t particularly care about what was in the statement of financial condition?”

    Mr. Trump replied: “I didn’t get involved in it very much. I felt it was a meaningless document, other than it was almost a list of my properties, with good-faith effort of people trying to put some value down. It was a good-faith effort.”

    Here Mr. Trump appeared to contradict himself. First he said it was meaningless, just a list of properties. Then he said it was a good-faith effort. The fact that he repeatedly called it worthless tells me that he didn’t actually consider it much of a good-faith effort.
