    @Horace That’s right, Gretzky was physically unimposing compared to other players. He looked like a skinny kid. As well, he was not all that fast compared to other players. He was however agile and seemed have an uncanny ability to know exactly where the play was going and be at the right spot at the right time to take over control of the action. Because of his physical limitations Sather always had to make sure goon enforcers like Semenko and McSorley were on the ice with Gretzky to act as deterrents. Ovechkin and now, McDavid, are big and fast enough that they don’t need enforcers to protect them. That and the fact, that the NHL has cleaned up and sanctioned a lot of the brute force gooning that had come to characterize the game back in the Gretzky era.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Heads Roll: @Mik said in Heads Roll: It wouldn’t be the first effort to derail the administration You mean the Trump train we all used to hear so much about?

Last Christmas I gave each member two train engine Christmas tree ornaments and told them how they should be hung on their trees. [image: 1744003702241-trainwreck.jpg]

    More impressive is the correct spelling for all those impossible French words! I didn't recognize bougie though. had to look it up. At first I thought you were referring to the upper middle class of French, which took me 15 minutes to figure out how that word is spelled. Bourgeois. Some have asked me why Italy and not some other European country such as France. Here's why.

    I’ll say it again….you cannot fool the market. No political agenda or ideology in past ever has and it will be no different this time.

With what’s happened to my 401K this week, I need 4 grandkids working at that t-shirt factory they are opening in Woodbridge next year ASAP to cover my Social Security…

    It would be more useful if it didn’t mix US and Canada but interesting all the same. [image: 1743873447492-img_3950.jpeg]

    I think with the end of ranked choice voting in Alaska, Murkowski is toast. Collins does what she has to do in a purplish-blue state.

    So his own number landed at about $140B. Let's say the real banked savings is $100B - not bad, it's something. It's not going to save the republic. Way outsized coverage vs. impact. On the actual budget process - way under coverage vs. impact.
