  1. Came in to congratulate women’s ncaa championship teams for pulling in more viewers, for the first time, than the men’s championship. Women's NCAA championship TV ratings crush the men's competition https://www.npr.org/2024/04/10/1243801501/womens-ncaa-championship-tv-ratings
  2. The double cheeseburger is nice. Only $1.99, too. Thanks. Sniff. I’d like that. I lost the count because I can’t stop thinking about how CO was quickly brought to heel while the actual question of whether 1(6 was an act of insurrection by a ballot candidate got shoehorned into the last day of oral arguments.
  3. Clouds parted enough to see, without the shades, the ring of light around the circle of black. Three generations of my family enjoyed the few moments. Don’t care, got paid.
  4. Largest wildfire in Texas’ history, with over one million acres scorched. I wonder how many of those affected will insist, through their future votes, that someone be responsible for inspecting power lines in the future.
  5. Wife was three days overdue, and her ob/gyn recommended we go out to eat and told her to have a glass of wine. Our first was born the next day. Never went back to that restaurant.
  6. Were Biden to suspend habeus, it would drive me away from supporting him. I appreciate, very much, living in a society governed by the rule of law. Lincoln’s action was based on a need for urgency, however, and I wish the same sense of urgency was driving the judicial branch’s actions on all things related to 1/6, the GA rico case, and the document case.
  7. No argument. Not advocating a suspension of habeus. I would like to see all appeals expedited. SCOTUS’ scheduling the immunity appeal on its last day of oral arguments ought be actionable.
  8. This, at least, meets the definition of an option: In 1862, President Lincoln issued Presidential Proclamation 94 which suspended the writ of habeas corpus. (The writ of habeas corpus is a tool preventing the government from unlawfully imprisoning individuals outside of the judicial process).
  9. Well, he was able to convince his jury he shot in self defense, so he’s not the only dullard in the jury pool.
  10. It’s Pandemonium up in here. I don’t judge those who want nothing to do with the mentality ill. I mean, I do acknowledge that doing so means you are not trying to take the high road and be as compassionate as we ought try to be, but one’s life’s experience is a powerful motivator in the decision making process. More often than not, past attempts to be righteous when dealing with mental illness ended in painful failure. When you know you have no tools to address that circumstance, you know.
  11. Nah, we employ the loosest standard imaginable and grease wheels. Burden of proof becomes what is a conceivable circumstance. .After all, my proposal does nothing but speed up answers to questions, and infringes not one iota on a defendant, but is (preferably actionably)* proactive in protecting the Republic. INAL; call the hounds and hunt. *Meaning that unnecessary delay is pure FA,, and FO stars with removal.
  12. Should a case, whether civil or criminal, rise to the threshold of threatening our Republic, let any and all appeals, or legitimate questions before the court, be decided post haste by the appropriate court, up to and Including SCOTUS.
  13. After looking at a list of cemeteries in Fenix City, I doubt the First Baptist has their own cemetery. Bubba’s funeral was at First Baptist. https://www.al.com/news/2023/11/bubba-copelands-funeral-held-a-day-before-wedding-anniversary-bring-love-to-this-awfully-dark-world.html
  14. Thanks tor the quoted part. I assumed the cemeteries weren’t associated with his church. If one is, then I drew the wrong impression, and am even more dispirited by these events.
  15. After reading OP, the only thing we disagree upon is your word “perhaps.”
  16. His church seemed both accepting and loving.
