  1. Parson's album Grievous Angel is very good and has a lot of Harris in it. Just some great music.
  2. Hey! You can bad mouth Chaska, Le Sueur, or even White Bear Lake, but leave Bemidji out of it.
  3. I'm with the part to make it a misdemeanor to obstruct a roadway. Get the fuck off the interstate.
  4. I guess that evangelicals have always worshipped at the altar of ignorance (see Inherit the Wind, great movie). But now it seems that hypocrisy and bigotry are taking the center stage, as well. And they are ok with that b/c they think that's what their god wants. You can't tell these people anything.
  5. So have a court martial then. Like that's a deal breaker?
  6. I liked RBG. And I loathe Trump and Trumptards. But why in the fuck didn't RBG retire when Obama could've appointed somebody to replace her? That's pretty much on her. Fucking stupid decision imo. (for her not to have retired)
  7. Part of the problem, imo, is that there are too many ex-military in the civilian police force. At worst, and all too often, they view the public as the enemy. Unfortunately, everybody should know and realize that as it currently stands the police are NOT there to help you. They are para-military hacks who view us civilians as the problem/enemy.
  8. And while you're out in Big Bend, get your ass up to Guadalupe and hike the peak. In my opinion, you aren't a true Texan unless and until you've hiked the peak. Hike it, mofos. It's not easy, but it's doable.
  9. Oh man, I need to get back to God's country. The Window Trail (if it's a "trail", can't remember) is good and easy. The only downside is that it's downhill starting out but uphill returning. Lost Mines Trail is good. Grapevine Hills (think that's what it's called) is really nice. Be careful climbing those rocks. Just ask a Ranger. Of course, be sure to hit up Santa Elena Canyon. Big Bend is one of the most beautiful places on earth. In my opinion.
  10. 20 minutes of action, baby!
  11. Imo, Charles is not going to forgo the throne, nor should he. And why would he? But how knows? One thing I do know is that he won't be King John II if he does ascend to the throne. Probably won't be King Charles III, either.
  12. Sorry, didn't mean to be that harsh. The world is an interesting place. Take some time and effort to understand it is all I'm saying.
  13. Gotta disagree on the reason above (that the royals have their privileges b/c of the expectation of public service). They have their privileges b/c they are royals and all the history and baggage that goes along with that. It has nothing to do with "public service". In my opinion. Now, they are expected to do some public service activities, but that is not why they are royals/have their privileges. Edward VIII's decision to abdicate was the best decision he ever made. Living in Paris with Wallis was far, far better than living in Buckingham Palace. He was happy and with the woman he loved.
  14. Prince Consort doesn't ring a bell? Never wondered why Queen Victoria's husband was "only" Prince Albert and not King Albert?
  15. Yeah, that's assuming there is an emotional connection between husband and wife. From what I can tell, emotions are a scarce commodity in the royal family.
  16. should've posted in current events. my bad.
  17. I'm sure the Daily Mail will blame the EU.
  18. Long live the Queen.
  19. It may just be me, but Andy G. kinda looks like Biff's son (Back to the Future) whose mother drank a little too much during pregnancy.
  20. A lot of kids see that. Which is a big reason why there are fewer and fewer people affiliating with organized (christian) religion. My kids see all the idiots associated with religion and it turns them off. I don't blame them.
  21. I doubt this is the dumbest electorate, GOP or otherwise, in history, but it's definitely the dumbest in my lifetime. And what saddens me the most is that the GOP (from what I remember, anyway, and my memory may be faulty) used to be a sane, responsible, practical party. That is, not really driven by ideology (idiotology really). What caused this? I blame the evangelical christians (hence GWB) flocking to the GOP and conflating/equating religion with politics. Fuck. The. Evangelicals. Imo, we are seeing the death throes and last gasps of a very sick, almost extinct party. These dumb white (shite, really) mostly elderly, uneducated voters are losing out to the younger and browner demographic and it terrifies them. There is no talking reason or logic to them. They think they face an existential fate and their choice of "news" reinforces that daily.
  22. Am I the only one thinking that you need to put a notch on that gun? Kinda kidding, kinda not.
  23. If Tucker talks about toilet paper being made in China these fucking lunatics would stop wiping their asses to protest toilet paper. Hell, they'd put their shit on a spoon and eat it if TrumpCo told them that it would make America great again.
  24. No kidding! Just noticed that. Talk about coincidence. Or is it?
