Interesting. I also thought it interesting until sometime between World War One and World War Two, French was kind of the "world language". If I read right, President Wilson was fluent in French and did end of war negotiations in French.

@Ivorythumper interesting. I went down the "internet hole" reading about him. LOL

There was a sad incident in the Nederlands where two workers were caught on top of a wind turbine when it started on fire. link text

@Copper said in Biden tests positive for SARS-CoV-2: It is a fake https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/07/22/fact-check-viral-statement-joe-bidens-covid-19-status-fake-donald-trump/10128128002/

I'm sexually attracted to him, and I pray to him as my God Emperor. Other than that, I can understand a distaste for the guy. Reasonable people can disagree.

I had one once. Wasn't keen on it. Found it to be slightly labor intensive, as I recall. I wouldn't mind trying again. My current favorite, the french press, is also one I had tried and discarded previously.

@Jolly If I had my druthers I'd have nothing but homemade ice cream. Today's storebought ice cream is not like ice cream of yore. It seems like it has less cream and more milk, and skim milk at that -- or something. It's weak. I think USDA used to regulate the amount of cream real ice cream had to have, and they have changed that. Maybe for economc reasons. But the difference is marked. It's not nearly as much fun to eat.

@Jolly said in It's a dud, Jim.: In this person's opinion. https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2022/07/22/gop-rep-banks-if-the-january-6-committee-has-done-anything-it-has-exonerated-trump/ Does he have a point? Was it a dud? What did we get for $10,000,000? We got a lot of masturbation and some vindication feels from TDS sufferers. Not much else. Pure theater, as is common knowledge amongst those not inflicted by TDS.

Living Document proponent. That's what you get with that view, a Constitution that means whatever you want it to,

The Swamp has decided to jettison Biden, so charges against Hunter would not surprise me.

Necessity is the mother.

I thought Kain was the first documented murderer?

Glad this gave us an opportunity to reinforce our Cops Bad narrative. Thanks for doing your part, Ax. Cops Bad is a great, pro-social idea, definitely for the good of all of us.
