Got me. I guess that's free drinks, food etc., but prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas. Not so, out away from Vegas. I'm not sure what the gals at the sporting houses are getting, but I'm guessing a few hundred to a few thousand, depending on time and services. I know they have to split with the House, but surely they are netting a grand or two a day... I guess Jimmy G. would be a business comp and marketing...

@Doctor-Phibes said in "musical necrophilia": If you listen to Wynton Marsalis and Stanley Crouch, Miles Davis sold out when he played In a Silent Way, and with his later funk and pop-related stuff, even though Kind of Blue sold way more copies than his later stuff. It's bollocks, obviously. Why people can't just say 'I don't like this' is beyond me. Again, I felt this way when I was 16. Wynton seems to still feel the same way now. He seems to be stuck in the pre-electric age, and that you have to wear a 3-piece suit if you want to be taken seriously. Jazz should be anything other than "conservative". lol

@George-K said in Life on a submaarine: Das Boot is probably the best submarine movie ever made. If you haven't watch it. The TV series is very good as well, but it's not as much focused on submariners' lives as the politics and shore-side events of WWII. Oh, and of course, Red October is a great film, though I wonder (not really) how accurate it was in its depiction of submarine life. @taiwan_girl , I haven't toured the U505 in years and years. I should revisit. If you get the chance, compare the 505 to a U.S. WW2 fleet sub - Gato, Balao or Tench class. I think even the Gato class is a better sub, although it doesn't dive as deep. If you served on an American sub, you got better food, laundry facilities and....wait for it.....Air Conditioning.

@Axtremus said in He's 81: If the voters want to keep voting for an octogenarian, who are you to tell them otherwise? I'm John Fucking D'Oh, that's who. Sorry, no I'm not. I'm Vincent Fucking Price, that's who!

Could happen. US states that were once thought to be solid in one side, are now solid in the other side. Not really, part of the discussion, but I thought this quote from the article was funny. "Not generally acknowledged is the fact that more voters in California in 2020 supported Trump—over 6 million—than in any other state. More than Texas. More than Florida." Well, that is because California has a much bigger population than any other state. LOL I could also say that President Biden got more votes in Texas than President Trump got in 47 states.

It is a blatant attempt to confuse Mr. Biden. But we know that is not possible.

Wow!!! Quite interesting.

Yes State-enforced diversity could never be allowed Well, it could be allowed, even encouraged, for years But eventually it has to be seen for what it is And we will tear down the statues of anyone even remotely related

Definitely if you want the best outcome and smoke profile, but it’s a commitment. You have to add a split every 45 minutes or so.

But worsening shortages in the supply of drugs used to treat cancers are drawing dire warnings from medical professionals and those who rely on such medical interventions to save lives. His moonshot plan?

Well, perhaps Jefferson was right...

@LuFins-Dad said in Wu Flu deaths below 100: @Doctor-Phibes said in Wu Flu deaths below 100: @LuFins-Dad said in Wu Flu deaths below 100: 1,095 Days To Flatten the Curve! Actually, that curve's been pretty flat for almost a year now. Yeah, and we’ve been open for even longer… It’s called a joke, dude… Oh sorry. You were trying to make a funny. If I'd realised I'd have posted 'lol'.

Speaking of the destruction of institutions, as part and parcel of TDS. Or more generally, the leftist moral panics that weave their tendrils throughout the culture.

Any word on the Walter Reed vaccine?
