  1. Will Trevor Noah still look like a Teletubbie when he is 80?
  2. Where is this Island of Free Ice Cream, and can I get there from Port A? (I'd be elated with the Sandbar of Reduced Price Gold Medal Ribbon.)
  3. I would be absolutely stunned if he doesn't walk. When your laws are a problem, good people get screwed and bad people walk. He's a very bad, vile kid. But I don't see how he gets convicted.
  4. Dismissed because the juror referred to him as a "man", rather that a "rioter"? Can't have that.
  5. She's got a Kimber in her panties and she's hunting Antifa?
  6. Agree. I went to a camp in Ashville, NC in high school and it was just such a great place, so interested in Smokies.
  7. By he if you mean me, it is kind of what I meant (although he's throwing out three solutions to one of my issues). In other words, look at the candidates - analyze them for their approach to climate change, for equality of opportunity, and voting rights (three issues). May have lots of different ideas/solutions within these three categories, but that's what I'd focus on and try to ignore the rest of the issues.
  8. I was going to go with two, but then it would be pointless to focus on the two without the third. You pick two, maybe three issues and that's all you vote on. You decide in the interest you really don't give a shit about any of the others. Which do you pick? Me: 1) Climate change 2) Equality of opportunity 3) Voting rights (broadening and anti-voter suppression) The other shit is just details. The candidate who addresses these first three the best will do a decent job on the rest.
  9. I'm enjoying Colin in Black and White, at least the first three episodes. Sort of as if Spike Lee directed Malcolm in the Middle.
  10. There are lots of younger folks in my neighborhood, and the last two conversations I've had with some of them to me represent a significant dumbing down. I think people in their 30s and early 40s are savvy as fuck and now shit loads of stuff, but they don't seem to be particularly interested in trying to understand an issue even to the level of a newspaper article. Nobody gives a fuck what the repercussions of political decisions are. There's just no fucking time, or reason, to understand what those repercussions are.
  11. Guy in Godfather III got killed by spectacles.
  12. There are God given rights and there are Constitutional Rights, and this right, like the right to fuck around and find out, is both.
  13. So the genesis of this is that my wife and I have always enjoyed going to West Marin, hiking during the day at the very easy Pt. Reyes Seashore trails and having a decent meal every night - either at a somewhat local restaurant or cooking at the house we rent. We've done the same thing every other summer or so for our entire married life. So want to try some new places that are modeled on the same routine (day hike, eat/drink/ repeat) for both my wife and I and also to try to meet up with old guy friends form high school/college. Let me caveat this thread topic. 1) Has to have at least a handful of solid day hikes. Time frame would be about 3 days minimum/7 days maximum. 2) By day hikes, I mean good long walks and not climbs/crazy drop-offs. The hikes can be in the area of challenging climbs/walks, but I'm looking for the treks where you can carry a conversation. The folks on these walks are in decent shape but on the wrong side of 50. For example, every hike in Pt. Reyes National Seashore would fit the bill. No grizzlies and no rattlesnakes a plus but not a bar. 3) No camping. I've got no camping skills Need to stay in at least a cabin with electricity/plumbing or airbnb or hotel. Something like the Chisos Mountain Cabins in Big Bend would be the most rustic we are talking about. Renting a house would be the most favored. 4) Has to have access to decent food/drinks. So at least a few solid restaurants/bars or easy access to buying stuff to cook/drink in cabin. 5) Has to be relatively easy to get to air/rental car. Big Bend - seems not to fit the bill, especially if we have people coming from multiple locations. So off the top of my head, I'm thinking no-brainers would be something like Santa Fe. Someone just suggested Tucson, AZ. I would think Asheville, NC, Boise, ID and most of the ski areas in the off season would fit the bill. All ideas/specifics would be appreciated.
  14. The planet is burning and puppies are being eaten and you bitches are focused on taxes?
  15. Who is speaking, some ambassador from the Phantom Menace?
  16. I voted just to vote no on 3. The rest I hope I did okay on. Although the whole double negative thing had me reading it over about 10 times.
  17. I prefer picnics and world fairs to rodeos, so no on 1 as well.
