Good price if it’s mechanically as good as it looks.

@Mik FFS....I guess (black) bugs' lives don't matter.

@Mik said in Looks pretty insurrection-ey to me: "We're not coming after your children". These weirdos were all once someone's children.

My prediction and multi $billion idea: Movies being recasted on demand using any face/body you want for any character. Don’t like “black Coleoptera”? Recast with any likeness of your choice. AI will do the substitution. @Mik can have his redhead Cleopatra, @jon-nyc can have his Aqua’s Sister Cleopetra, etc.

@Jolly said in Williamson: "No Democrat primary debates.": Robert Kennedy doesn't deserve a debate? Ted didn’t get one, and he was competitive, not just an attention seeking crank.

A child can pull a trigger just as easily as any adult. Ask any Vietnam or Afghanistan vet. Not saying the shooting was righteous, but it's dark, play guns look real in the dark and a sudden rush of cars into the neighborhood would make me nervous, too. Years ago, a bunch of kids were on my place without permission, engaging in a paintgun war. I scared the crap out of one of them, as I was trying to figure out what was going on...Staring into the business end of a shotgun can give a young man a religious experience. This type of behavior with nerf guns should have been nipped in the bud previously. You don't shoot at people running away. Culture. Culture. Culture

I have a Henkel sharpener - zip, zap, done. Puts a nice edge on. [image: s-l640.jpg]

@Aqua-Letifer said in 30.: @Mik @Jolly Would it be more accurate to say that you see your kids as adults, or that there are adults walking around out there who used to be your kids? (Or, how would you put it?) My kids will always be my kids. Yes, they are adults and I really enjoy their company as adults, but they're still my kids.

I'm sure it's bad, but I'm not quite ready to believe it's as bad as age 2 and 3. It's a pretty conservative place. We'd definitely see some whistle-blowers. I could be wrong, but I hope not.

Mint the $1T coin. Then sit down in a bipartisan manner and work out a fiscal plan with no hostages.

Hmm, the architectural style and her costume look more Indochina than China to me.

Just a point of order to pause and have us reflect on what a classy bunch we are. @mark's post has been up for 3 hours, and no one has mentioned that piece by that French composer whose name starts with "R". Well, done, gang!
