As it has ever been. Unlimited wants/needs versus limited resources. It's morally repugnant but unavoidable.

That could just be a really bad mix. We saw Dave Matthews band probably 20 or so years ago and the mix was SO bad we walked out. You literally could not tell one song from another.

Yeah, I thought as much. Maybe we should make it a crime to post bullshit on social media. Disclaimer: TNCR is not social media.

School Desegregation has ended racism. There is no longer any need.

Perk of the job, abuse.

It's a 10% each deal for China&USA isn't it? So your Chinese sourced stuff will all be available but now cost you all about 10% more in the shops; and your Government will make 10% of $462billion. Right?

@89th said in Doesn’t she have a dog to kill?: If true, a big if... that is evil. Let’s back it up here. It’s not like as if the other contestants are not granted citizenship. We also don’t know the nature of the “challenges”. It could very well be a reality show highlighting the challenges snd best ways of navigating them to achieve legal citizenship. If the show is demonstrating the proper way go through the immigration process, then it’s not evil at all. It’s a great good. But if you phrase it like the twitiot, it sounds like some absurd game show, and sure, that’s pretty low. But let’s get the details, first.

No you don’t.

In football you get ejected and fined for targeting.

Interesting map. The meme is spot on too.

Very short ride. I wanted to take one from the airport to downtown but they don’t pick up at the airport. So I accidentally went to the wrong hotel and my actual hotel was three blocks away. Mayla didn’t want to walk as her knee was acting up from the flight, I was embarrassed to call a human being for a 0.2 block ride. So it was a perfect solution. I’ll probably keep taking them while I’m here.

Maybe you did pay attention in biology class! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viviparous_lizard

That is such a cool song. And good advice for those of us with stage fright.

@Mik said in Baby healed in world’s first customized gene therapy: Of course, then one could not be non-GMO. That'll stir up the tree huggers and anti-vaxxers. Then don’t eat them… or take the therapy. It’s your choice. Of course, the mutant flesh eating zombies will affect everyone..

I just double checked my 401K. I’m up 13% since April 23.

@Mik said in Pete Rose off the ineligible list: Yes, and guess who the reds are playing this week.... Yeah, I saw that, lol…

@Mik said in Maybe this person can explain how tariffs increase prosperity: @jon-nyc said in Maybe this person can explain how tariffs increase prosperity: At least they can use them most of the year. What I don’t get is people who put them in up here. An expensive three weeks for sure. When we were moving up here 12 years ago, the realtor showed me a house with a pool. I said I wasn’t interested because I had to pay for it three times. Once in the purchase price, once to get it filled in, and again with higher taxes that come with the pool.

I'm 6'6 in socks and intentionally good posture. Taller than I thought.
